Isn't that kinda a spoiler?
I mean, if you're the type of person that absolutely doesn't want to know when they're getting close to finishing the game, then perhaps...

And also for some people it might take longer or shorter than that depending on how they play
the trophy list is not known.. (as far as I know)
trophies just pop up, but the list is not online yet.. you can't check your trophies yet.
and the team behind the game are wiping the servers (the ones storing ghost runs, treasure photos etc) on the 12th.. so maybe the trophy list will update after that date?
It straight up says how many episodes there are.
Some people just don't want to know when they are approaching the end.

It feels the game is quite similar than the first one, just with a "bigger" scope.

Great reviews!!!
Fantastic news.
Looked good in the trailers, but seems that the game has finally delivered

Yea that seems to be the general consensus from these reviews. A grander, longer version of the first game, I figured as much from the demo.
If you were already a fan of the game, you'll likely love the game. If you really disliked it, then I doubt your opinion would magically change, though the reviews made it seem like the combat additions made things a bit more interesting and not as repetitive. Probably not enough though for those who noted that the game's combat was their main issue. And then for those that just had a few gripes, perhaps the sequel may have the solutions they've wanted.

It'll just do what TLG ended up doing, and go from £40+ to £25 in one fell swoop. I don''t know why these publishers price their games at such unreasonable amounts at launch. I'm about as fanatical as you can get when it comes to Gravity Rush and I sure as hell ain't spending £46 on a game, especially when I know it's going to be discounted in no time.
Would happily pre-order at £35.
ok, I removed screenshot
Well sure, in a perfect world, games in general would be cheaper. But nothing about Gravity Rush 2 leads me to believe that it should be cheaper compared to other games.
It'll be funny if people complain on Kotaku's review

Good scores! I'm currently playing the first one in the Vita and I love it, a underrated gem. The "falling" mechanic has a bit of learning curve, but when you master it, it's really good.

Are the stealth section that much different from the ones on first game?
It is indeed a falling mechanic.
The two styles also affect your "falling" speed. Which means if you want to travel fast switch over to Jupiter Style, due to the added weight.
If you want to avoid a drop from too high putting Kat into the annoying animation where she has to stand up again, you can use the Lunar Style at the last second or utilize the dodge roll.

Japan studio is sure killing it lately
not much.. there is a "alert bar" at the top.. once you are spotted it starts filling. Take out the guard spotting you or get out of sight, to make the bar go down.
The biggest problem is not being able to see who spotted you... and you have no indication whatsoever to where the guards are.. it mostly comes down to trial and error runs..
Can't wait for Knack 2.
Could find TLG for £39.99 easily tbf. Not sure why Gravity Rush 2 is more expensive than most games, least the reviews are good!

Maybe I'm wrong, maybe I'm right, who knows? PAL and NPD charts will be interesting.

Well things were quite nice the way they were last gen when your average game was priced around £35 at launch. Now, instead of supporting the devs I want to day one, I have to wait a few weeks for the inevitable discounts to happen instead.
Yea like I don't blame a person if they want to get a game on sale or whatever. (Probably sucks a bit more in particular for this game, since everyone thinks it'll flop) But nothing about it indicates that it should be cheaper than other games.
Meh, for the games I actually want (GR2, Nier, Zelda, etc.), I buy it Day 1. I do have Prime and such to lessen the blow though, but even if I didn't, I'd probably still pay the full $60. If I'm waiting for a discount or w/e, it's a game I'm somewhat interested in, but not enough to pre-order it or get it Day 1. Right now that's Dishonored 2 for me lol
they are not "difficult".. just annoying.. One of the sidemissions was driving me crazy.. because the game decided not to use mission markers. The mission could only be finished in one way, while I tried to finish it in several other ways.. and the way to finish the mission is not obvious. You had to trigger a cutscene, and that only happened in one place..
No I am genuinely excited for the game.
The Knack franchise...can't even be excited about a new entry without sounding sarcastic.
I humorously want it to at least beat FFXV, because while that was my GOTY last year, had GR2 not been delayed, it likely would've taken its place lol, especially considering XV's flaws.
Would be an amusing case of irony for a game that got delayed because of its existence to beat its score.

I'm very curious to try the GR2 demo or/and the final release with the new Styles, it seems like a better mechanic to control speed than the falling & falling with speed boost of GR1.

There's a very big difference between £46 and $60, or at least there was before Brexit happened and killed the pound stone dead. A year ago, £46 equated to around $85 or so.

Ah good to know. It's hard to know whether someone's being sarcastic or not. Had a fun time with my nephew playing the 1st one

I want to play the game but can't justify more than $40 price, Sony should just look at their own example to realize sometime pricing can drive a success of games (see: Ratchet & clank)

Giving the direction of where you're being spotted from sounds like something that could be patched in. I typically really dislike stealth sections, so I hope the developers can make it as painless as possible.
