I tried that mobile jiggling booty shooter when I heard it was related to shift up and I thought it seemed like good quality. I don't know anything about mobile games though except grindy stuff does well.

I am watching this one but I'm not convinced with the gameplay. I can see the moves have some more commitment so maybe it will feel a little different. The arena in the gameplay demo was really flat and open. That could be better. Dmc and bayo do confine you in some places but the also have flat open areas so hopefully this has more

Another issue. This is a me problem and not fair to put on this game to buck a trend, but I wish I could get more action games without the dodge. The wide window, invincible dodge with the slowdown on counter. I really have done a lot of that in my time. The parry is partially redundant. I'd rather play with a non-invincible dash that is used for positioning. Oh well. That's not the groove action games fell into.

But even if the fighting turns out more standard stuff, there might be more to carry the game so I'm watching.

Edit: oh I remember I didn't see invincible dodge in the wolverine gameplay and was pleasantly surprised. That was pretty skeletal tho so they might still add it in.

Is Stellar Blade still doesn't have proper release date yet? I want to be excited for this game but I have no experience when it comes to Chinese games. Most of them show really cool trailer but never come out, hope to god it’s not the same case with this game.

This is Korean. They're starting to finally get out some console games that arent f2p crap. Lies of P, Gungrave GORE were both good. This developer is primarily a mobile dev.

The dev (shift up) is south korean and made Nikke which is a surprisingly good waifu gacha game (or at least that's what I heard). :messenger_grinning_sweat:

Btw, nikke is currently one of the most profitable gacha games on the market:

We won't be put at ease until I see a proper UI that tells me how the game functions. Most gameplay I've seen paints it as super linear with at most five enemies to wail on. The standard for a mobile title. So odds are we have a AAA budget mobile game on PS5 that'll probably see a PC release 2 years down the road.

The UI seen here is so low effort IMO.

The UI you can see at the beginning in this vid is from the 2020 prototype footage, so I imagine it would have been updated by now.

Maybe it's time for updated footage instead of moving goalposts for a tentative release. All that's being said is game might be released in 2024...maybe. And then it releases in the last quarter. Pretty much making it a 2025 release.

A lot is riding on this ui. I hope it's godlike.

There's still a chance of this not being a mobile game. They can save it with a high effort ui.

Looks really good. I love the monster design they've shown off so far, really on point and sets the mood. But I do hope the game offers more depth than flashy combat and cool boss fights, although I wouldn't be disappointed if the game only amounted to that. I hope the controls are tight at least.
So it was the monster design, not the ass that pulled you in?

To the people boycotting Sony games after the Insomniac thread:


Still doubling down?
This game is going to get so thrashed by the "totally never into sexy or ever turned on by objectifying women or porn, but we support you and your thot OnlyFans, stripper or sex worker lifestyle, yaaaassss queen" smooth brained Borg they call gaming press.

I can see Bugaga scared it may make him turn straight as we speak.
