Metal Gear Rising survey asks fans about potential sequel
- Thread starter Catalix
- Start date
I know they can handle multiple projects, I'd just rather they work on anything but MGR2. I know people love MGR and I hope y'all get the sequel you want. I personally would rather see them work on a new IP, their own version of someone else's IP, or a sequel to Vanquish.
MGR was great, I just don't want another one.
Either way, if Platinum keeps making games, we all win.
I'd like to see what Platinum can do with MGR on a next gen system. If anything, I think the current tech held them back a little bit. In general, I'd also like to see a MGR game that gets a full dev cycle and not an 8 month job.
After that, I can wait for another MGR while they push out a new IP or two or maybe a Vanquish sequel.

It's hilarious how specific the survey is, but I kind of love it. I would totally fill one of these out for more games, and, yes, I realize how much of marketing sheep that makes me. Whatever. It makes me feel like they're listening, even though they're not.
Platinum make money though it may not look it. They just don't need to sell millions because they manage their budget well and don't waste money on mo-cap and 500 staff for one friggen game.

Yeah, you can't lose if you just appeal to your fans. That's exactly what Platinum does.

I was going to stop partway through the survey, but a voice inside me screamed "RULES OF NATURE"
Asked for wall-run and better camera. I realized I liked every character and boss battle
EDIT: SHIT, I didn't ask for more "character dodges something deadly and it barely misses their chin" Platinum moments

Improving the camera is the number one thing I want to see in a new Rising. After that, I'd say work on creating cooler environments/levels to fight through, but not at the cost of 60 fps. Shouldn't be a problem for next gen though. And please bring back the guys who did the music.
Completed the survey.
To paraphrase the final section of the survey: I think there is a good Raiden/Rising game to be had out there. That said, I'm not a huge fan of the game. The combat is excellent, but the story is uninteresting, characters lack depth, short runtime, bland/boring/lifeless environments, and music is terribad (like not play the game around humans bad).
I will buy the next one as well. I will give them another chance. Don't have a problem with Japanese-ness, but they need to make improvements in storytelling and characters. Samuel is the only interesting supporting character.

I don't mind DLC episodes as a concept. The prospect of DLC kept me playing this game for waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaay longer than I would have otherwise at launch.
but Rising's were pretty piss poor. Recycled levels and characters that were too similar to each other
So I also said I disliked the DLC

Did my part, told them I want a sequel that's like the first game but even better.
And that Sunny is awesome. And Courtney.

I made it a point to play share this with others, in part, BECAUSE of the music. I screamed "rules of nature" at my friend while I forced him to play it

Done. I really hope we get a sequel from Platinum.
I disagree with a lot in your post, but this is just flat out wrong. MGR's soundtrack is easily one of the best of the generation. Top 5 material.

A. Improve General Level Design & Art Direction
B. Remove Stealth Entirely or improve AI
C. Encourage Blade Mode Precision earlier and expand it's usage beyond direct confrontation
These are things I'm gonna mention.

It's definitely NOT wrong. It's just an opinion. I don't think an MGS style soundtrack would have been effective with MGR's fast paced combat, but I can't stand those songs. I don't have much problem with the instrumental stuff though. I probably wouldn't be complaining if it was just the instrumentals. I wouldn't be singing praises either.
I think they acknowledge the minor issues with the camera, here's hoping they'll improve it in the sequel.

Damn, I knew I was forgetting something.
First game's script was written by a KojiPro writer.
