>Mixes Western "Dudebro" shooters and Japanese arcade action of the 00's into one game>It's actually goodHow the fuck did Shinji Mikami pull this off? This game is insane.
>>724284950>15 years agowhoever makes a copy cat indie game will make bank
>>724284950>How the fuck did Shinji Mikami pull this off?hes Shinji Mikamithe only reason he isnt bigger that kojima or miyazaki is cuz he likes to have too much fun with his games
>>724284950I remember playing this, amazing. Even got the DLC with the hand cannon. I wish you got to play as the Russian guy's suit though, he gets two!
>>724284950>Japanese HaloYup it's good.
The game with no content.How are you gonna be 4 hours long, repeated boss fights, no unlocks, and like 5 challenge stages?We could've gotten a shooter with a bloody palace.Also the overheating really was too restrictive and they clearly got spooked about the difficulty right before release and did shit like the melee change.
>>724285942>The game with no content.You're right.>How are you gonna be 4 hours long, repeated boss fights, no unlocks, and like 5 challenge stages?Deep gameplay mechanics.>We could've gotten a shooter with a bloody palace.There is in the re-release. It's called challenge mode.
>>724284950Shame about the mouse acceleration. Unplayable on PC.
Mikami is legit brilliant and most of his gameography is amazing
>>724285346>the only reason he isnt bigger that kojima or miyazaki is cuz he likes to have too much fun with his gamesGood god Hideo Kojima is such an egotistical bastard who likes to put himself in video games--
>>724286271>Shame about the mouse acceleration. Unplayable on PC.Are you sure? I'm not getting any of that and it feels like I'm moving my actual hardware mouse
>>724286102Ninja gaiden or devil may cry have much deeper gameplay mechanics and also are not 4 hours long.If this wasn't a shooter it'd be considered one of the weakest of these sorts of games. It still is, but it'd be said more often.
>>724286571>Ninja gaiden or devil may cry have much deeper gameplay mechanics and also are not 4 hours long.I don't fucking care I'm not comparing games here. I think it's pretty good for what it is, especially for a shooter. Having DMC mechanics with Gears of War cover shooter is pretty interesting.
>>724284950I have had this game installed on my hard drive for like 12 fucking years, and have never played it for one millisecond. Maybe some day, lmao
I thought /v/ hated Vanquish, what the fuck?Last time I talked about this game I got shat on. I got a couple "stupid nip game tries to copy superior western genre" comments, and a good handful of "fake Jap game betrays Japanese gaming" remarks.
Has Shinji Mikami ever directed a bad game? Was PN03 shit or did he just have a perfect track record of good ass video games?
>>724286792>Last time I talked about this game I got shat on. I got a couple "stupid nip game tries to copy superior western genre" comments, and a good handful of "fake Jap game betrays Japanese gaming" remarks.They're fucking idiots who only looked at it on a surface level. Under the hood, you got some unique mechanics that's extremely satisfying once you master. I wish those people would give it a chance.
>>724286829PN03 wasn't great. No terrible, but nothing worth experiencing. Other than that (besides God Hand being overrated), his catalog is pretty clean.
>>724286682I am. Vanquish is a pretty unsatisfying game but it gets way worse when you compare it to its peers. Being wasted potential+no sequel or spiritual successor really kills it though. Definitely a better design document than game.I mean what did they even spend all that dev time on? How do you even release a four hour game? How intentional can the design even be when you're making big changes like overheating melee right before release?>>724286829pn03 is absolutely a pretty shitty game. It's not even terribly made, it's just kind of a bad idea for a game in the first place.
>>724286470Does Mikami credit himself multiple times in the intro of the game, each mission and the ending, have characters say "Mikami is god" alongside inserting himself in multiple games?
>>724287281>alongside inserting himself in multiple games?Did you look at the image? lmao
>>724287281>Quentin Tarantino>Martin Scorese>M. Night Shyamalan>Peter JacksonYeah yeah I know he's a gaming developer but obviously he pulls things from movies. Directors of any kind always get recognition. This is not even a new thing.
>>724287323>one cheeky self insert as a random guy>verses not only putting yourself in multiple games, but having the characters within said games constantly acknowledge your existence/sucking your dickDisingenuous faggot.
>>724286571Yeah no this game has a lot of depth most peoole just dont use melee attacks
>>724286470that easter egg was kinda cool
>>724288028> Suda51 in No More Heroes, and Yoko Taro in NieR: Automata>No one caresSo what's the grey area for you? Is it one time? How many times is enough for you? How many self-inserts drives you insane? I think the Kojima self-inserts are supposed to be silly and not to be taken seriously, just like how everyone else does it.
>>724285346The reason he isn't bigger than Kojima is because he doesn't have Metal Gear Solid under his belt.
>>724288530Nah, kojimas self inserts arent the problem. His appearence in ttp and gz was funny. His self gloat "KOJIMA IS GOD" was just cringe. His problem ia the constan A Hideo Jokima game. He overdoes it. That fucker has no breaks
>>724288669He has Resident Evil which is a far bigger and more normie froendly IP. Even kamiya who engages with his fans on social media isnt egocentric like kojima is.
>>724288690>His self gloat "KOJIMA IS GOD" was just cringe. His problem ia the constan A Hideo Jokima game. He overdoes it. That fucker has no breaksIt's just name branding. A lot of Hollywood directors do this man it's really not that deep bro. I love it when Kojima just makes people so angry for putting his name on everything. Anyways, he's a genius and he has never made one bad game.
>>724284950Shinji Mikami stated that the game's graphics were partially inspired by Casshern, a 1970s anime series by Tatsunoko Production.[12] Mikami also stated that the game design itself was inspired by Casshern. Mikami originally wanted to create a game just like Casshern, but with the addition of guns, since Mikami had already previously created a brawler with God Hand. However, while making Vanquish a shooter, Mikami still wanted to maintain Casshern's "feeling of speed", which is the reason he introduced the sliding-boost mechanic.[13] Vanquish uses the Havok physics engine.[14] KINO
>>724288803No bad games? He produced many games meaning he assembled the development team to make the game and greenlit the game. He killed castlevania by hiring some spanish team to make a Castlevania: Lords of Shadow a God of War rip off.MGSVTPP, MGS4 was gatbage
>>724289112>He killed castlevania by hiring some spanish team to make a Castlevania: Lords of ShadowSo what he was only1 of 3 producers. I'm talking about actually directing and writing stuff he's actually done.>MGSVTPP, MGS4 was gatbageDespite being the weakest in the series the gameplay and story are actually quite superb. It really shows how Hideo Kojima can make a great product.
Shame the unlocked booster in the final boss is not an unlockable mechanic. Would be fun to play around especially if you're not an expert like that one guy on Youtube>>724288836>2025>still no Casshan gameWhat the fuck
>>724286829>PN03>penosheh
Gears Of War but for chinks
Hillary Clinton blows her brains out in this game
>>724289486I literally only see European/white Americans talk about this game. Not even Nips.
>>724288803>A lot of Hollywood directors do this manAnd it's cringe as fuck when they do it too? What's the problem? I do think it's cringe as fuck for Tarantino to show up in his movies to suck on some toes.
>>724291570>And it's cringe as fuck when they do it too?Lmao no
>>724289607that was funny as fuckshe also organized a false flag operation and the russians were the real heroeskinda based
>>724290442The only shooters Nips play are RE, Apex, and danmaku if they're autistic enough
>>724292620>ApexGrim.
>>724293763Yeah, it's really popular there for some reason. Go to any Donki and you'll bound to see Minecraft and Apex toy weapons
>>724284950If you mix 2 good things you get kino. It ain't that surprising desu
