Man, some of the feedback on this game is just ridiculous.

Are people honestly not a little weary of DMC combat yet?
I liked Transformers and Bayo but struggled to get through them due to them being the same old shit with a few mutations.

The mechanics, by themselves, are fine, though I don't care much for the super-flashy slashing, but that can be forgiven if everything else works. It's how they are used that I don't like. The terrible camera, the boring enemies, the scripted nonsense during boss fights (and the boss itself was really really boring to play even outside of that).... There was never anything genuinely exciting going on, though the game tries to pretend otherwise.
Out of curiosity, which control scheme did you use before & which one did you settle on? I'm changing mine tonight as well to see if what I have in mind benefits me, but I like seeing others as well.
That's fair, but there's a bit of a difference when it comes to FPS and these games. These games are based on their combat engines and juggling mooks, whereas FPS tend to have a stronger focus on level design, for the sake of disparity. And I feel like FPS tend to have a more meaningful divergences in encounter design to the point where most shooters don't really play the same way.
Beyond that, I'd have the same problem if every shooter played like COD.
It's possible, since I feel this particular direction kind of peaked in 2k5 with DMC3. However, I feel like Metal Gear Rising was the most refreshing game in years from the genre.
Those games play very differently... like there are huge differences.
DMC and Transformers and Bayonetta etc are only the same on a pretty surface level.
I can see that perspective. MGR was definitely unique in its approach to enemies and emphasis on defense timing compared to usual action titles. This demo doesn't showcase it's full potential but I think the emphasis on range combat will separate it from its peers, as well as being a Zelda-like RPG. Time will tell though.
The idea of the bandanna is that it's a high tech visor she can percieve through. It's a take on the classic "blind swordsman" who doesn't need to use his eyes to cut.Ridiculous outfit, high heels, stupid bandage over the eyes, but we're supposed to believe she's some advanced soldier robot? Right. All flashy, "sexy" (lol) style, no substance. I guess it's just like the game, really, so she fits right in.

How does Yoko Taro handle romance in his stories anyway? 2B and 9S looks like they're going to be a thing, not that the promo art and cover didn't give that away already. Well, if not romantic, then familial love or something.
L1: Pod
L2: Lock-on
L3: Evade (duplicate, but I am using this as a bootleg "stick-sprint" hack lol)
R3: Reset Camera (will probably swap for lock on though)
R1: Evade
R2: Fire
Square: Light Attack
Triangle: Heavy Attack
Circle: Evade (duplicate, I need it for muscle memory after my FFXV PS accessibility button swaps - might make this a change weapon duplicate instead though, idk?)
X: Jump
D-Pad buttons: keep as defaults
Touchpad Left: Shorcuts (may swap for torch as these 2 are my least used options)
Touchpad Right: Action

So there is a sligth difference on PS4 PRO after all : http://www.dualshockers.com/2016/12...comparison-massive-anti-aliasing-differences/
Settled on this config for my playing whats everyone else using?
Also when you really start understanding the combat it's just phenomenal. I can even burst threw those magic enemies that annoyed me so much before now!
Does seem pretty minor. I certainly wouldn't notice it in motion, while playing.PSY・S;227103402 said:"slight"
I contrary to many here really hope not much of Platinum DNA pass over this game, I just want their combat thats it, I want everything else to be pure ol Nier weirdness Taro Yoko on his prime batshit crazy.
I dont want a action game, I want a RPG with good combat thats it, hell if the final game has only this combat and nothing more I Will be happy.
You're not really being contrary to anyone then. That's exactly what Platinum fans want too. That's what people like them for, their combat.I contrary to many here really hope not much of Platinum DNA pass over this game, I just want their combat thats it
The Demo was pure Platinum goodness with a few bullet hell twists.I contrary to many here really hope not much of Platinum DNA pass over this game, I just want their combat thats it, I want everything else to be pure ol Nier weirdness Taro Yoko on his prime batshit crazy.

Who would have ever thought that Nier Automata demo would have a 50 page thread in a little over a day?

Third person action game with a cornball Japanese trope coat of paint.
Isn't this awkward for dash cancels?

Nier had a wedding in it. There was also the lighthouse lady but I dunno if that counts.The only romances of his i can think of are
Drakengard 1 Spoiler
Caim + Furiae
An incestious relationship between brother and sister, ending with her suicide
Nier Spoiler
Nier + Kaine
Happens basically five minutes before she mutates into a monster and Nier is forced to either kill her to delete himself off of the world.
Kimi Shi ni Tamau Koto Nakare Spoiler
Child Soldier + Child Prositute (forgot the names)
He thinks they care about each other while hes actually only doing it for the business or something, the manga so far ain't really good so i don't bother remembering the details
Well, yes, there is a wedding, butNier had a wedding in it. There was also the lighthouse lady but I dunno if that counts.

What? The shimmering/aliasing is extremely noticeable (definitely more so in some pictures than others). Doesn't detract from the gameplay though, which I guess is the most important part.Does seem pretty minor. I certainly wouldn't notice it in motion, while playing.

Personally I'm tired of Resident Evil 4.
Yeah I agree to some extent, some of the writing seemed like it came out of some corny, bad anime ("Just die already!").The little bit of writing and voice work that was revealed in the demo has me scared. It's bad and cringe worthy.

I wouldn't blame you two. Castlevania peaked with Symphony and 2D Mario with 3/World. And RE4 is GOAT.
Just what I played blows up FF XV.
No, I, er, that was irony. Those are games that deeply impacted how other, similar games were made, to the point where design elements from them can still be seen today.
So a spin on the last of us? :3I hope they make a Bayonetta 3, but it's a corridor emotional, humorless scripted cinematic experience, filled with walk&talk sections about the relationship between Bayonetta and her daughter, and forced stealth segments, and flashbacks where you just read a book in real time.
Y'all action games fans deserve it.
