Hey Guest. Check out your NeoGAF Wrapped 2025 results here!
Scalebound Gameplay Demo [extended IGN First demo in OP]
- Thread starter zakislam
- Start date
co-op :O
The map during the in-game footage would heavily suggest open world. As does the scale of things. Could be instanced sections but the IGN gameplay has them running further down the field into caves etc.

Co-Op? Splitscreen? If yes I'll get a Xbox One with a buddy just for co-op (Halo, Gears, Scalebound, Rare ....). Would be awesome.

If this means I can't fly around anywhere on dragon homie, then I hope you're wrong.
Maybe zones? Either way, it looks pretty open to me.

4-player co-op was confirmed during the demo.
it looked alright
i was expecting more action
looks like they had to limit what the protag does to make the dragon be more important to the combat
i would have actually liked it better if it was more like Devil May Cry but at the same time it's cool to see theyre trying to make something different to what we're used to

The main problem I see here is that he's basically playing in god mode, so all enemies die in one hit (except obviously for that insectoid monster). This together together with the pretty low number of enemies on screen probably disrupted the flow of gameplay to quite a large degree.
Nonetheless, still looks great and still day 1 for me.

I sure hope you can ride that dragon T-T

But that could just mean it is an open area. It could be 1 level, not open world, but explorable and somewhat large. I dno. Ill wait to hear more

He was pissed off?
Pie and Beans
Look for me on the local news, I'll be the guy arrested for trying to burn down a Nintendo exec's house.
Honestly I'm going to win the comparison war right out:
This is Lost Planet 4. Grappling beam? Akrid things? Dragon instead of mech, swords instead of guns.

Marketing maybe?
He was also pissed at Nintendo for how poorly they were advertising W101 iirc.
needs Drakengard as well.......the minorly floaty combat and the inclusion of a dragon totally does.
Game looks fucking awesome, and I really like the little relation that they showed between the main character and the dragon in the beginning. I'm really interested to seeing how snarky the combo can get.....omg so excited for this fucking game! Co-op too!!!!

I love the looks of the game and the dragon interaction, but HATE HATE HATE that rock music during big fights. The music afterwards when just walking through the world was good, though.

If the dragon evolves/changes visually based on skills we pick count me super in. Definitely looks like it needs more time in the oven but also really cool concept.

looks good. just need to redesign the main character
While I understand people disappointed by the gameplay, I like to see PG on something different and I'm sure they'll do great.
Game is far from finished so I'll not judge. If anything, I can say I like the gameplay (but it needs to be faster!) almost as much as I hate that guy.

Looks like this will be a really cool addition to the Xbox One lineup, really want to hear more about the story though. Not a fan of the main character's voice, but he gets a pass for listening to Prodigy's Wild Frontier whilst slaying foes!

He deleted it already.
He was seemed pissed cause he wanted to do a live demo and Ms just wanted him to come out and wave.
I guess you cannot really peg Kamiya down to a particular style of game. He just makes what he wants to make.
I am sure the combat will get all slicked up and varied. The Footage showed different weapon types and the gameplay has to be a bit further in that normal, hence not explaining the whole dragon pet and dragon transform thing.

I'd describe it as Dogma May Cry. Dude even (still) looks like Dante. Definitely looks great, but the combat kind of looked simplistic for a Kamiya game.
But that framerate tho... I hope they fix that.

I thought I was the only one who thought so...
They seem to be going after similar things in different ways
which is probably why big Platinum fans are disappointed

Looks nice, but combat doesn't look fun at all.
Most parts in the beginning looked like Dynasty Warriors combat, just willy nilly slashing around, very unlike Kamiya's other games where you dodge, weave, and combo. The way that character moves around feels lifeless when there's so much chaos around him.
Also, that press start title screen transition is so fake. Maybe it's a demo thing? I dunno.
