IMO the actual technical part of it looks great, it's just that the designs are really woke

The Mother is a giant pregnant black woman, Galandra is incredibly androgynous (it's a woman), Cider uses they pronouns.
I would also assume that one of either Karl or Brome are gay, but that's just conjecture on my part.

>>722826286
i think it looks fine. My only problem is that the only character i find cool visually is the blue lady. Which is a shame since the assassin was way more fun to play as. Hopefully the mage dude will be interesting enough for me to overcome my racism against him. The only other thing that bothers me are the emotes. They could have put animations or even voicelines for that.

i saw her use "us" and genuinely thought it was like a venom situation. Like she had a spirit in her mask or something
>>
>>722828981
i turned my nose at seeing it was a roguelike but i came around to it. I need to see for myself if it really sucks that much. I cant say if it would have been better if it was like the mystara games but i am very fucking glad its not like dragon crown were i needed to swap loadouts all the time
>>
>>722828994
From what I understand of Cider's lore they were shattered and then rebuilt. So it's possible it's multiple people.

The demo for this was great in spite of the awful woke story. The gameplay was actually fun.

When you open the demo there was a message about how they got funding from an EU fund for woke shit. So they admit it themselves in the game. I'm not even memeing or anything.
>>
I played the demo and the story came across as
>Magic exists
>Wizards abuse magic
>Everyone suffers
>Non-Wizards discover countermeasures against magic
>Wizards are imprisoned and highly regulated to prevent magic abuse
>This is bad because ???
>>
>>722829383
Yes the story is cringe and retarded but I think its actually fun gameplay wise. Will probably just skip cut scenes desu.

More problematic are the plentiful glitches. Some issues have been patched out, but others remain for us at the time of writing. There’s routes that can malfunction and prevent you from progressing further, forcing a restart, and there’s certain abilities and buffs that don’t seem to work at all, the game assuring you that you’ve been boosted despite the fact you most certainly haven’t. The AI of allies you can gather on each run leaves something to be desired too. A super powerful barbarian you can hire for a vast sum of gold is mostly useless and spends a lot of her time frozen, furiously not attacking but still looking badass whilst doing so. Meanwhile, other allies will steal your mount, only to not do anything whilst sat upon the creature and, like a toddler on a swing, refusing to get off and let anyone else have a go. Also, the health of your allies inexplicably goes up and down from screen to screen, as if the game can’t remember how many health points they have remaining. That’s problematic in the latter stages when allies are crucial to your success, but suddenly die despite having a full health bar. Most irksome indeed.

It’s a shame that there are such issues. The game is still an absolute joy to play, but the roguelite structure limits longterm enjoyment, and a patch is wanted to polish out unintended issues.

this is woke but doesnt really play like dragons crown. The classes there generally are more diverse with the moveset, here it seems that they are more homogenous.

Too much bullshit that i don't care about, why do they think anyone wants to hear talking and stupid story sections in their bmup? hopefully they add a arcade mode eventually
>>
>>722833678
The DC classes do feel more unique but if this the same as SOR4, I imagine the actual combos/movesets are deeper. Not to mention there isn't actually that many unique stages in DC unfortunately, and the A/B paths isn't that much different since the B path is only access partway in
>>
>>722833816
streets of rage 4 had 6438 players so that's pretty bad
>>
>>722834094
i only opened this thread cause it looked like the game may have a cool story

if this was a generic shmup without rpg/story i wouldnt be interested
>>
>>722834171
yeah i think so too. Thankfully i didnt expect a wild variety of playstyles like DC so i wasnt set up for disappointment. To tell you the truth i think a full run of DCs stages might be longer than one in absolum. I got to the frog area which seems like halfway through the whole ordeal in about 30 minutes or so. Maybe im misremembering but a full round of DCs stages was like 1 hour and a half for me.
>>
Games kinda shit, mediocre rogue like mechanics with SoR4s lame comboslop gameplay, also the final boss requires you to buy a expensive item or it instant kills you lol

huh. Theres a permanent upgrade that gives you respawn with 25% life. I really dont want to grab that shit so at least theres an item for me. Still unfortunate

SoR is an established franchise, not sure how much that affects it vs a completely new IP

Why do these devs love to put in shitty superarmoured enemies?

>do exactly the same shit every other studio makes nowadays
Every other studio is making beat 'em ups based on 80s and 90s franchises like He-Man, TMNT and so on. This is unique.
>>
>>722835814
i actually thought the he-man one was a joke. It actually exists and i think looks neat, so thanks for that i guess.
>>
What I wanna know is about the difficulty selection. Do they have a mania+ equivalent?

Why the monkey face? Why are they so racist
>>722831498
Give me a week. I'll sexualize her.
>>
>>722836082
so far there doesnt even seem to be one. I assume they are going to do like most roguelites and once you beat a run you can adjust the difficulty somewhat. If you want something like SOR4 at higher difficulties i cant say for sure.
>>
>>722836137
damn, you litcherally groaned, huh.

>evil patriarchal drow society
Funny you say that considering drow society in the drizzt lore is very matriarchal

Yeah that was the first red flag, the faggot ass character designs and story just kills it outright. Can't trust any westoid dev or publisher anymore, regardless if they're AAA or indie.
