I wanted it to be good Sup Forums. I really did. 10 years. This is what we got.

It's completely a platformer. No combat. All puzzle based platforming. It's ugly. I'll just leave it at that. The controls are clunky but that's okay I guess since SoTC was the same way. But this isn't where the problem is. All this would be forgivable as just a niche game. But here's the issues:

You are 50 feet in the air, the game obviously wants you to make your way down slowly to the bottom. But instead you can just jump down and deal with a few seconds of "injury". No death. No damage.

There's "enemies". In that you have to avoid them but if they catch you it's no big deal. Just a few seconds of you struggling while they do some weird life absorbing thing until you, the child, breaks free of these "armored demons". Obviously you have to find a way to get rid of them before progressing? So just lead them to your big beast pal and he'll spend about 5 minutes to dispatch them and afterward you'll spend 5 minutes climbing on top of him and calming him down before you can progress. Not fun.

The biggest problem I have, above everything else? Knowing how to progress but waiting until the beast's AI figures it out. I know how to go forward, but I have to issue commands over and over until he figures out what the fuck I mean which I can't tell is either RNG or specific command combinations.

I don't want to finish playing.

it does look like a ps3 games at times.
Post more pics.

This gen is literally identical to the previous one.

the laggy camera makes me want to throw up.

im gonna play this shit though but, like ico and SOTC its one of those games I have to be in the mood for

These are just googled. I didn't take any pics myself.

The environment looks early PS3. The boy and beast look early PS2 (worse actually). I really don't understand how they could make him look so awful and think it was okay.

It also plays pretty slow but I don't have a Pro either.

i dont mind it. too bad i wont play it cause i dont have a console

That's objectively false.

I get where you're coming from because it can seem that way sometimes but if you compare them you see that's just how your brain remembers things. Like when you played N64 as a kid and the graphics were amazing.

Have you ever seen a PS2 Game?

I will say this game does a great job with the relationship between boy and beast. So if you're okay with everything else sucking then you'd like this game. Not worth $60. I think I'm going to send it back.

How do I beat this part?

I grew up on PS2. There's no need to defend the graphics on this game. There's a lot of other merits it has worth defending. The graphics aren't one of them.

>The controls are clunky but that's okay I guess since SoTC was the same way
>a game had a flaw so its okay if the sequel does the same shit
why?

Well some people "like" that PS2ish feel. I think they're Team Ico can do no wrong fanboys but that's why I left it there. I'm trying to be unbias.

Imagine playing through it. I got a view similar to this one about an hour into the game. Why? Why would you waste time on that?

You have no eye for graphical quality then. What the fuck is that FFX screenshot meant to prove other than that you're completely wrong about this looking worse than an early PS2 game?

>The environment looks early PS3.
PS3 GPU can't handle that many polygons. That's a distinct feature allowing you to differentiate between generations immediately.
>The boy and beast look early PS2
That's an artistic choice.

Those are literally the same image.

in terms of framerate alone it pretty much is

Read my post again. I compared the character model of the boy to a PS2 game. The environment looks PS3 level. The boy looks significantly worse than Tidus (although FFX was a beautiful PS2 game).

It might be artistic choice. But it still looks on that par. You can have an artistic choice and still make it look good. The boy looks like shit, especially in game. He's so much lower quality than everything else it's rather glaring.

in terms of framerate, every generation is the same you idiot

Stop backpedaling. You compared both the boy AND the beast to an early PS2 game.

Honest question

Why not just play on PC?

My normal pc that I've used since forever runs most games very well. And you can mod games as well. And you can use any kind of controller.

Why not just PC?

>10 years
What the hell did they spend their time with? Modeling architecture?

I did. But Tidus wasn't a comparison to the beast for obvious reasons.

Here's a comparison to the beast.

So no, I'm not backpedaling.

Nice bait.

Like I said. No eye for graphical quality. The Last Guardian isn't amazing or anything but it's just downright ridiculous to say it looks worse than SotC.

k

That looks like early ps3

Building up hype for preoders. I can see the necessity of waiting until PS3 for this, but not PS4. The fact it takes PS4 to play at a stable THIRTY fps is pretty bad. Considering the low quality of this game, it should be able to play 1080p 60fps at no issues. Look at a game like Alien Isolation for how well it performed in comparison while still looking great.

Because it has no games?

Compare MGSV on PS3 and PS4 or DaS2 to Bloodborne you idiot.

Because dumbasses insist on paying to have the privilege of using gimped DRM boxes. That's the only reason consoles still exist at all. If people simply stopped buying the damn things, all games would be available for everyone on PC, but that would be too good for this gay Earth.

The amount of time spent on this is ridiculous given the result. I'm pretty sure they realized at some point that the game just didn't work then went back and forth between starting from scratch and trying to fix the broken mess they already built.
