Oh boy, looks like we have another Korra / Star Fox Zero / Transformers stinker on our plate...
I guess it's the price Platinum has to pay for stretching too thin with more than 4 games being developed at the same time, even though they're just a medium-sized studio.
It's sad that they're smearing their own name with these products.
their pen-to-paper-to-product speed is astonishing to say the least.
but i was complaining about this back when MIH was first announced; platinum is cranking out all these short-ass games that, with a little more time and polish, could be amazing classics
but i guess they are being hired so often now because they can knock out a game as good looking as this, or something like the Korra or TF game, on a very tight schedule. but that's all they end up being; 5 hour long arcade beatemups that get repetitive really quickly, cuz how could they have time for more animations with dev time that short?

>$40 for 4 hours of gameplay
At least Korra only cost $15
Xavier Robinson
The internet will forget about most of these games once Nier Automata and Scalebound are out.
Adam White
The game looks worse than Korra. I'm not sure the internet will forget that easily.

>Platinum is a good developer
LMAO
Thomas Hernandez
They're contract workers. They have to work to whatever time constraints Activision is pushing them for. It will literally be in their contract that it HAS to be out at a certain date. Just wait for Scalebound if you're that bothered.
Owen Ross
that guy is playing on fucking easy, where there are less enemy everywhere. of course its 4 fucking hours long
Carter Thomas
Anyone else who literally pirates all of Platinum's games regardless of quality? I even played Korra to completion. For me gameplay is king and Platinum always seems to nail it.
Leo Hughes
Gameplay is king, but these Platinum C-tier games have bad gameplay.
Lucas Cook
I honestly even enjoyed Korra's gameplay, its like a babby DMC
the turtle team up moves seem like a fun enough gimmick to be worth playing
Nathaniel Phillips
i've just started the Korra game, is it just me or are the Triad benders like ten times harder than anything else? every time they drop some of those fuckers on me they completely ruin my shit.
Caleb Flores
this will be good r-right boys? genuinely worried
Daniel Jenkins
I'm not sure anymore. All footage we've seen were in that forest area and that warehouse. I'm worried it'll be a one-note game.
Jaxson Nelson
it'll be fucking godlike, don't you worry
David Reyes
Looks empty and bland. Lots of arcade style fighting but nothing much else.
Kevin Cooper
Nier is definitely their top priority game.
Lincoln Nguyen
I think if you liked MGR you'll like automata, but it's not gonna be "fresh" like W101, vanquish, mad world, etc.
Scalebound, you mean. Kamiya isn't working in nier
Logan Lee
Kamiya didn't work on Bayo2 either and it's one of their best games.
Kamiya isn't the only thing Platinum has going for it.
Aaron Hernandez
Bayo 2 isn't as good as Bayo 1 though, or W101 for that matter. I'm not saying it's bad, but it's a step forward and one and a half steps back.
The problem with platinum though is that besides Kamiya now, their games are very homogenized. It's all slightly modified Bayonetta mechanics on an already existing IP, I get that for short contracts with activision it would make sense but MGR and it looks like nier will have this problem too but it's too early to say, but I wouldn't be surprised.
I'd kill for a combat racer or even fighting game by platinum.
John Phillips
I disagree about Bayo, 2 as far as I remembered improved in every aspect or is just as good.
I'm already happy with what we saw with Nier 2, it's clear they kept and will focus on the bullhell esque combat.
