all style no original gameplay. if you can play games because it looks pretty, you'll love it

>>738177725
I saw some gameplay. The MC doesn't stop with the one-liners, and the gameplay reminds me of Bioshock. There's also less interactivity in the environment than Goldeneye 007.

>>738177725
Looks fine but I don't play FPS games because it's a genre that never changes and never improves. If you've played one, you've played them all.

It's Mouse fire hire, AI generated, the game,

>>738177725
Unacceptable that it doesn't even have a basic feature like Level Select.
I will not play until it's fixed.

The only original thing about it is the artstyle, everything else is a grab bag of mechanics that step on each others toes, and a metric ton of referential humor that is more hit than miss. The game is too easy for what you get, and oddly a little too long as well, but most of that length is you getting stopped to talk to characters, drive back to your office after missions, talk to more characters, and dick around for a bit in the levels themselves. Actual fights are painfully short and filled with enemies that are not a threat even on hard, and the bosses aren't much better. You play simon says with one of them. That's not a joke, or an exaggeration, that's the whole boss fight.

If you've literally never played a shooter before, ever, then sure it's amazing. If you've played even a single other shooter before, this is going to be rather disappointing.

You think ripping off Walt Disney cartoons is original?

>>738178616
skill issue.level select its a useless feature and you can find all secrets without guides and very easy to find you casual

>>738177725
About the only thing it has going for it is artstyle and themes.
This year had the release of High on Life 2, another single player FPS that has objectively better gun play but everyone hates the game because no one like Rick and Morty humor anymore.

>>738177725
Wish it actually let you be a detective
Even if it's just connecting the dots on your sleuthing board

>>738178812
It's more original than everything else about the game. It doesn't exactly have a lot of competition in the cartoon art design aesthetic.

>>738177725
Its not worth 30 bucks thats for sure

>>738178847
>Rick and Morty humor
The guy who made it doesn't work on the show anymore. People "don't like rick and morty humor anymore" because he's not making Rick and Morty.

>>738178887
So you admit it's art style is not original? Y/N

>>738178924
Yes, obviously. What do you want, a freaking medal?

>>738178838
>that level was pretty fun I want to play it again
>can't do it
the reason to you let people replay levels and Boss fights without nuking their save file is because that's the content of the game you stupid retard.

>>738177725
Furfag boomer shooter
Means it's not worth playing

>>738178924
NTA

It is not a common art style in games, even fewer times done as well. If you say "the shooter with vintage wacky cartoon characters doing a monochrome noire schtick", people will know what game you are talking about.

>>738178997
>Yes, obviously.
I just wanted you to confirm what you meant, because you said "the art is original" in your last post and now you are saying the opposite.
Theres no need to get upset.

>>738177725
They got lazy with the environments.

>>738177725
Everything about it looks and screams ai generated. Even the writing.

The story is a mess. It’s not funny like Roger rabbit with its forced memes instead of jokes, terrible characterisation, strangely played straight tone and stale cheese puns.
It’s not serious enough like Maus to be a serious commentary with cartoon animals on WW2 due to the paper thin portrayal of the nazi vs Jew conflict and it’s not a good P.I mystery since the fact the tell you who the bad guy is right at the start of the game.
Truly awful

>>738179049
I didn't ask if it was "common" or not.
I asked if it was an "original art style" if you 100% copy the art style of another, older, better product? Y/N?

it's one of those games that nobody is going to talk about outside of the artstyle in a few years. it sold entirely on that.
it's kind of retarded that there was a mini-outrage based on IGN giving this game a bad review

>>738177725
It's slop. The only thing it has going for it is the novelty of steamboat willy being public domain. It's the game version of that Mickey mouse horror movie.

>start out okay
>somewhere along the lines forget you were making a black and white time period game & start bitching abour orange man and the chuds
lol

>>738178895
He got forced out of the game studio at the same time.

>>738179005
ok but now you can only use weapons that belong to that level,with limited upgrades and the difficulty cant be change from hard.Deal?

>>738179057
Technically I said it was the "most original" part of the game. Because everything else about it is not. BLOOD's machinegun, down to the alt-fire being the sweeping fire. Doom 2s super shotgun, but shittier in every aspect. BLOOD again, but with the cultists but not threatening like BLOODs dynamite chucking, hit-scanning douchebags. Cacodemons show up in Hell, wall running, double jumping, dashing, latching, hover mode, a whole bunch of shit from modern boomer shooters but none of it implemented particularly well. Nothing about the game is 100% original.

>>738179202
Is he not back yet?

>>738177725
im 4,5 hours into it
its super easy even on highest diff, the gauntlet room never spawn enough enemies too be challanging, especially when most enemies are oneshot with a shotgun anyway

imo game would have been better if it was just a shooter but they also made it a detective game and a bad card game

>>738179253
>Technically I said it was the "most original" part of the game.
No, you said
>>738178771
>The only original thing about it is the art
But then you admitted it's not original in the slightest. So you worded your original post poorly if that's what you meant.

>>738179292
> bad card game
There’s a weapon locked behind that cabinet btw, have fun spamming that shit card game for a terrible weapon

The problem is a lot of the weapons are just ass. The Cannon has splash damage that kills you faster than the enemies. The regular shotgun fires what has to be nerf pellets. Raygun is cool but has no ammo. The game is about using the smg untill you run out of ammo then use inferior guns.

>>738177725
Isn't this the game where the AI background looks so different from the AI characters that it was so jarring to look at? Everything looks pretty on screen shots but when they start moving even the animations look out of place.

>>738177725
>and original
lol

Nothing is "le original" by your reddit-metric, though, you underage faggot. Now go do a tiktok challenge on train rails and get mincemeat'd.

>>738177725
Lost interest after watching a gameplay trailer. Doesn't look like something I'd enjoy.

>>738177725
Good gameplay, amazing art style, very solid themeing, but they marketed pretty hard to normies and got the mainstream spotlight and so the hipsters here all hate it and as you can see, are finding every excuse they can to nitpick.

>>738180201
Dude. It's literally a 1 to 1 copy of a different art style. The antithesis of originality.

>>738177725
Pretty basic boomshoot with shit gun balance. Too few enemy types so the shoot outs become boring and this is stretched to an ungodly 13 hours, where most classic boomshoots know that even 6 hours is a stretch.

Its 100% riding its art style and it gets sucked off for it by gaymers, but underneath the looks, there is a really basic and dull shooter

>>738180345
I've already decided that it's not likely to be a game I'd enjoy very much from footage alone, but the reasons anons have listed for not liking it seem a lot more convincing than yours in favor of it.

>>738180345
No. I gave it a fair shot. I wanted to enjoy it even. It just isn't very good.

>>738177725
I don't complain when the enemies in Doom move like the enemies in Doom because Doom is 33 years old. This game only just came out.

>>738177725
indieslop

>>738177725
10 inch Mike said it sucked

How is the level design? Is there real enemy placement or is it arenaslop?

>>738180553
Arena slop

>>738180553
Mostly arenas broken up by linear corridors and occasional platforming. But the platforming is bad because the double jump will clear 80% of it by itself and the hover mode you get about as quickly ensures the other 20% is just as tedious. Enemies spawn from pretty obvious door spawners that open up to black voids and stay opened after a fight is over. Sadly very few, if any of the arenas are memorable.

>>738180553
Gameplay is essentially nuDoom with a Tommy Gun

Also what was that plot, I have no idea what's going on. Likeable characters though

>>738180345
I feel posts like these are made by the devs, there’s a smugness and arrogance to these posts no normal person would make.
The games flawed and most can see that

>>738177725
the IGN rating is deserved
not bad not great either

>>738177725
It's just solid, the weapon balance and level design are questionable while the art on the surface looks good, some movement abilities aren't needed to reach certain spots despite the game having a mulitstep puzzle to get something like a grapple hook into the right spot.
Some guns are just bad even when fully upgraded
The card game is shit but ignorable, feels impossible until you get some solid cards, then becomes too easy. It only exists for a gun that's not needed and achievements
Dialogue is filled with cheese jokes, it's not bad otherwise, but also still not that compelling
The art seems good, but in game the environments look like pretty basic assets with their noir filter.
The ign review is not far off, just that games think anything less than an 8 is irredeemable dogshit and unplayable

It starts dragging once you get to the portal thing, even though you're supposed to be impressed by all the off the wall levels that follow it

This game made me wish I was playing an actual imsim about gritty 30s detective without the whole cartoon gimmick

the /v/ take is "I need to find a toon gf immediately"

>>738177725
It's alright. Nothing special besides the art style and even then everyone looks like a template with some extra clothes slapped on them for variety
the writing reminds me of Guacamelee where it's a constant stream of game and movie references but Guacamelee 1 and 2 are actually pretty great besides
>fight with a boss in a plane
>they do the full Anakin v. Obi Wan speech for some reason
>gameplay thing happens
>Oh no. I hope dis is not exactly like dat one trope. dat would be bad for me. Oh no.
for gameplay, the enemy variety is lacking or at least lacking in visual variety. Skinny mice, muscle mice, the charging rats, shrews, flying shrews, dogs/crocs
and then they dress each up as robots, cultists, nazis, the mob, or cops as needed
weapons are fine but a lot of them suck
>get a hell chainsaw
>it does no damage and on hard mode I die if I try to use it
>dynamite is shit and will kill you more than it does enemies, same with barrels
>the secret unlock weapon is actually terrible
levels are fine but you're constantly getting locked out of backtracking if you missed a collectible, every other door locks behind you to load the next section
it isn't a bad game but I really think the dev is either rich or well connected to get this advertised like it has been, and maybe getting Baker for it too.

>>738177725
Looks like shit. I hate that "retro" FPS has looped back around to reloading, cooldowns, and designated fighting arenas.

This is one of the most obviously astroturfed games in recent history. Some no-name indie dev who has never made a game before suddenly gets coverage through all mainstream vidya outlets, and funko pops before the game is even released.

>>738177725
the gameplay is pretty simple and straightforward, but its decently fun i suppose. the presentation is great. if you dont find punny schlocky dialogue fun, you might have a bad time though. one major drawback though is that you cant redo levels to pick up anything you missed, and no ng+.

bonus points: it does something new and unique for lockpicking.

The black and white gimmick was cool for about 10 minutes, at which point i started repeatedly thinking "man imagine what this would look like in color like cuphead"

>>738177725
I haven't had time to play it yet between shitposting here and playing the new HoMM but from what I've seen the gameplay is on the mediocre side when it comes to FPS

>>738177725
Shooting is mid, gameplay is repetitive. The combat arenas feels like discount Bioshock or Doom Eternal.
The game really thrives on its cartoon DA and not much of anything else. Not bad, just mid.
