Just killed the first boss. Game seems pretty boring and plays kinda weird in a bad way. Should i refund it or does it get better?
>>729222424NMH does have this strange jank feeling to it and I don't know why
>>729222424My biggest critique at the time of playing it (quite some time ago) was the overworld/open world part being very boring. The first game was a chore to play through solely for this reason. I found less issues with 2. I haven't gotten to 3 yet.
>>729222965Its literally my first time playing the game and making a thread about it. Take your meds
>>729222965Saving this for the ff12 fag that also pulls the "im playing this for the first time" every fucking week.
Refund it? Is it on Steam? Either way I think a huge part of the fun is the wii motion controls. I have the PS3 game and it just wasn't as fun. Feels good to shake the wiimote and get that rumble when executing. Also the recharge. Make sure you Darkstep too, hitting the control stick to one side as an enemy lands an attack. You killed the baseball guy?
>>729222424The first boss is part of the tutorial, anon. The main game begins when Travis first gets back to his apartment. I also second >>729223248 this comment about the Wii version being the most engaging to play.
All the No More Heroes games are kinda shitposts but the first one and TSA do jave some worthwhile stuff going on. Although TSA really only if you're familiar with Suda's greater library.
>>729222424
>>729222878Just to clarify i mean: all the side jobs in Santa Destroy in No More Heroes 1 and everything to do in the hub world is the part that i found to be shit, not necessarily the combat. If that makes sense. Like the side jobs or hub world activities really do suck and the world is not interesting. Mowing the lawn, collecting trash, cleaning graffiti and all that stuff. Suda just did not know how to make that world interesting and that's what really brought it all down for me. I'm fairly sure this was toned down to some degree in 2 or at least it was made more bearable. The actual missions portioned part of the game? but hubworld free roam tedious.
>>729224664the open world and side jobs add to the story
>>729225207The hub world and side jobs overstayed their welcome and really brings its points down in my final rating quite considerably. Unadulterated tedium in it's most pure form. I only vaguely remember that Desperate Struggle slightly softened the blow of the first games boring devoid of life Santa Destroy. The only thing i don't agree upon is bad combat, but i played it with the wii mote so it was the intended experience at the time.
>>729222424I felt the same way. Refund it. It doesn't get better.
Travis touchdown is such a dumb fucking name, i love it
This was only worth playing on Wii.With a controler it just becomes a very basic and shallow hack n slash
>>729222424How's the switch version?
>>729222424Kill a few bosses before you give up on it. If you’re not into the writing by Destroyman then the game isn’t for you.
>>729222424>Game seems pretty boring and plays kinda weird in a bad wayIt will remain that way. The first two games are like that and the third is much, much worse.NMH1&2 are played for the vibe, tone, characters, music, jokes, character designs and boss fights. If that's not enough then stop.
>>729222878>I haven't gotten to 3 yet.Don't ever get to it. It's not worth it.
>>729225593they are side jobs after all. they are not fun to do
>>729226215>>729226292What's wrong with 3?
>>729226215>>729226292How can the gameplay possibly get worse?I guess this franchise just isnt for me then. Gonna ask for a refund
>no wiimoteyou are not playing the game. you are playing a bastardized chink clone. sorry but that's just how it is
>>729226459Everything.Open world is back and more boring than ever, levels removed, side characters mostly removed, fugly character designs, boring bosses, awful minigames, stupid unfunny plot, every sidequest is fighting waves of aliens in an empty square combat arena, ugly aesthetic and the whole thing feels like an early Kickstarter game made by unpaid interns. Utterly charmless.
>>729226215She did nothing wrong beside the incest
>>729226751I see. Red Orca's music sounded good so I was interested in the game because of that but if you are saying it's the worst aspects of 1&2 then fair enough.
I had a bizarre time believing this wasn't a Suda51 game at the VGAs this year. But then i went to his dev profile on steam and saw his working on something called Romero Is Dead. So then i got confused that someone has gone so close to his style. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AAReo6TahPQI don't really follow Suda much anymore so i thought this for real his game. Looks like something he'd make if Lollypop Chainsaw is anything to go by.
>>729222965kek
>>729222424Play through the second boss so you understand what the game is. Death Metal doesn't really give you a feel for what the game is like. That said if you don't care for it after Dr. Peace drop it
>>729226215Please don't lump 2 with 1. 1>3>2 and it's not even close. Actually it's 1>>>>>>3>2 because 1 is the only great game.
>>729226567The gameplay doesn't get worse. TSA, and NMH3 are the first games in the series that actually put effort into the combat design. Even 2 is a remarkable improvement from 1. Most people who hate the sequels are complaining about the "vibes" rather than the actual gameplay.
>>729229778Just having one good moment or memorable character design immediately puts 2 ahead of 3.
>>729222424Enjoy it it's the only decent NMH game
>>7292224892 is completely broken on keyboard they didn't even bother
>>7292311063 is actually a halfway decent action game where even the encounters with regular enemies are fun and pretty well designed. But being a middling action game is a participation award, NMH1's vibe is in itself an accomplishment. Even the janky ass gameplay feeds into the theme.
>>729231106NMH3 just feels like a hate letter to the franchise and its fanbase. The combat is alright, the bosses are a mixed bag, the hubs are underwhelming and the lack of levels leading up to boss fights hurts bad.But the main thing is, it feels openly hostile to anyone actually invested in the series after TSA actually tried to get people invested in the series. The NMH games have always kinda been shitposts and always kinda felt like a prank played on people who are into the dark, surrreal, parapolitical conspiracy theory stuff Suda made before but NMH3 felt openly hostile even to people who were into No More Heroes on its own merits.
>>729222424I'm surprised people know about this game.
>>729222424The music slaps though
>>729234384It was the only good Wii game
