Yeah you're definitely misreading the post you're quoting. And people can wait for sales and spend their money however they want, but I really dislike it when people act like there's some objective reason why X game isn't worth the launch price.

The R&C reboot was a low budget game iirc. It's not as big or largely developed as GR2
Same. It's a hella unique game for one thing, it's 20+ hours long for those who feel that short games aren't worth full price, no major technical issues, etc. etc.
It being a sequel to a game that originated from the Vita isn't a good enough excuse either...
Like of course, my cheap ass would love to pay less for it (and games in general), but nothing indicates that it isn't deserving of its price tag.

On the contrary, I wouldn't be surprised if R&C cost a lot more to make than GR2.

Glad to see all those good reviews. I was buying this day one anyway after the demo, can't wait to explore the world. I particularly liked the Jet set radio vibe with the floating islands full of passersby and little shops.
It would be nice if journalists had a little more movie / anime culture before doing comparisons like that. This game has very little in common with Ghibli productions, and this is a disservice to do to the game.
This is a Ghibli visual :
Gravity Rush is clearly inspired by Studio 4c° / European comics :

let me just share the note from Keiichiro Toyama-san to the reviewers..

Alot of the budget went into the movie also remaking a game is easier quicker and cheaper than a brand new game
The story is a continuation of the first, a part 2 final conclusion to Kat's origins story. Also it's not a Vita game this time built for the PS4 from the ground up and is vastly expanded and improved on with many new stuff and places etc
Think you misread what I said. I said GR2 is the more largely developed, and been in development for several years and alot of Sony Japan studio was working on this afaik.
Also I think I read this sequel started as a Vita title then they dropped it and made for PS4 instead
ohh I know.. I was just agreeing.. ;o)

Good reviews. Wasn't a fan of the demo but maybe down the line.

Lol I like how one of the cons was it running at 30 fps.

Also loving all the universal love for Kat as a character.
Does it have to be a cleared save? Seems the cloud decided not to take my beat game save, just a random one a bit before it.

No clue unfortunately, I read it off of one of the reviews

Hmmm really wasn't excited for this game at all after 5 minutes of the demo but I love the Crackdown style ability upgrades...maybe I'll buy it for $35 or so. I'll have to actually give the demo a chance first I think.

Oh I didn't realize this was coming out already. I enjoyed the first one and this seems to be fine, so I'll definitely grab this at some point.
Hum, might have to quickly rebeat the first game, just in case, then.
I had to use Google Translate to read the review, but this is roughly what it said:
"with a total of 16 available costumes of which Unlock 3 start if there is a game of "Gravity Rush Remastered."
That's cool, guessing the 3 you get for having the previous game are just outfits from the old game. But still it's a cool touch.

Wow, another solid game for PS4. I can't keep up with all these awesome games that have been coming out. I want to Platinum FFXV, still have DQ Builder to play, want to play World of Final Fantasy as well, aww shit Nioh and Nier Automata are coming out soon too!?
What an awesome time to be PS4 owner.

I know, it's an awesome problem to be having lmao
Do we know which costumes exactly are given if you have a save?

I put together a spoiler-free video review if there's any interest here, too. Lots of new gameplay for you to watch, though I tried to be conservative so as to not give any of the surprises away:

My guess is the spy, maid, and military outfits. The only other outfit left is the schoolgirl one, but we get a new one in this game, so it's unlikely that that's one of them.

I'm ready for this!
Heh
Wait is Gravity Rush not in there? It moves too fast for me to tell lol
Nice, I'll check it out.

Oh wait it is
None of the reviews cited any major issues concerning it from what I can recall. Hell, a few people in this thread that have played the game said everything was smooth. One person said that a certain boss made it dip a bit, but other than that, all good unless I'm mistaken.
I think the FPS dips of the demo have been fixed, it was a months old build anyways

Breh, this video basically sold me on the game despite me already planning on getting it lol
Also that new outfit is pretty cool
Seems these days reviews don't really go into performance, probably because they were done before any patches.
Thanks. Great to hear problems were ironed out in the final game.
the biggest complaints is the camera at some points gets a bit wonky and some of the mission designs are slightly lackluster. Other than that, the complaints are generally minimal from having read about 6 or 7 different reviews.
Even those 2 don't generally read like complaints so much as bug bears the reviewers feel don't ruin the gameplay to any great extent
Common complaints are camera issues, some of the missions feel/are repetitive, stealth-based missions are lame, etc. Seems like the combat was fine enough, albeit a tad repetitive to some reviewers.

Wow is that second picture actual Gravity Rush concept art? Or is it the mentioned Studio 4C/European art? Looks incredible. If it's Gravity Rush art, I might seriously think about getting some franchise art books...
Working on Platinuming the first game literally right now, does the demo for 2 feature the fully updated control scheme?
( Started before FFXV and Guardian when the remaster was on sale and just getting back it it now)
I'm completely charmed and preordering but I have a few gripes i'd like to see if they changed

Damn, those are some high scores. Hopefully the final build irons out the performance issues that turned me off of the demo, even though I enjoyed the first game.
