backers paid for that shit on kikestarter. years later and they STILL haven't pushed that shit out. Disgusting shovelcucks WILL defend this.
Jacob Powell
>the one thing i want (battletoads shit) i cant have on pc because microshit
Carson Evans
I like both games a lot. : )
Tyler Murphy
I want Shovel Knights big Shovel Cock in my ass
Michael Scott
Get the windows 10 version goy maybe they'll release it some day
Gavin Turner
>shovel knight >shitty pixel art made in game maker made in mspaint >shantae >top tier production values with HD animations and bosses that take up the entire screen with tons of effects >LOL DUDE HOW COME THE FIRST GAME HAD SO MUCH MORE CONTENT XD
Isaac Jackson
My one question is: Why do you care?
If they're defending something you don't like, why not just go play the game you like? Are you really too immature to tolerate people being wrong?
That's not very cash money of you.
Jaxson Brown
>Half Assed Hero >shitty flash art with god awful tween animation FTFY
Daniel Garcia
It's disappointing to see WayForward and Shantae going to shit.
Luis Howard
>STILL only 25% off jesus christ, you made a nice profit from the game, it really wouldn't hurt to give it a proper sale like 2.5 years later
Josiah Ramirez
they put out a trailer for spetre knight. of course they aren't going to do a full discount.
Samuel Ward
>going to shit
You say that as if Shantae ever had more than one good game in the first place.
Cooper Brown
And that one good game came out RIGHT before Half Assed Hero. They got something good going and they fucked it up.
Austin Cruz
what if I don't care about the DLC here's an idea, they could've made the other knights separate free DLC on the store but noooooooo, it has to be in the same game and we can't properly lower the price if you get 2 ''''''''''''''''''''free''''''''''''''''''''' extra campaigns right?
Sebastian Butler
That wouldn't do anything to alleviate their reason for not marking down the price, are you having a stroke?
Jonathan Adams
>Dreadout >Ask for 30,000 dollars >manage to create a quality 3D game
I don't even know how they did it for that budget.
Cooper Diaz
This really doesn't look any better than every Unity early access title.
Jonathan Foster
I thought the game was easily worth the cost when it was full price for just Shove It Knight. Now it's got a full campaign with Pussy Destroyer Doctor and Keeper of the Reaper coming soon for free with one more later down the line. You might as well make like Treasure Knight and steal it if $15 is that much of a bother to you.
Carson Lewis
It's 15 dollars for >Game >Expansion >Planned expansion 2 >Planned expansion 3 >Local battle mode >Ng+ mode And you are whining that you can actually get it for even cheaper since it is on sale...
Nathan Long
Wait, why are we fighting again?
Grayson Jackson
because THEY are cucks which are destroying the industry!
Austin Young
Shantae was never good.
Gabriel Fisher
See:
Jaxon Cooper
Pirate's Curse and arguably the original one were good.
Henry Ross
But Shantae is still good
Samuel Harris
...
Ryder Murphy
...
Aiden Sanders
Nope, see:
Jordan Richardson
What's with the recent use of using Shovel Knight as a shield to shitpost on Shantae
James Kelly
Pointing out glaring flaws of your precious Kickstarter scam isn't shitposting, sorry to brake it to ya.
Cooper Garcia
Because Shovel Nig, Shawnty and Better Than Nothing got lumped together as the Kickstarted Trio
David Miller
We need an update of this of Shovel Knight dancing on Shantae's grave.
Brayden James
>legally obligated to tell you we're not affiliated with shantae
Lucas Hall
Dont forget they fucking started a kickstarter for Half Assed Hero while being an established series, Not even Freedom planet 2 did this shit, they are maximun jews
Don't also forget they didn't even do very well and that was AFTER being plugged by the MN9 kickstarter.
Ethan Gutierrez
I miss the times we used to get along
Zachary Allen
what the fuck did they do to freedom planet
Adam Brooks
fags want it to be the next MN9 but since was received well in reviews and is currently selling better than MN9 did in its first few weeks they have to settle with SK being some kind of moral high ground
sad, really
Ryan Campbell
>WayForward is shit Any more news?
Xavier Fisher
Nothing?
Jaxon Cooper
but it was actually released
Liam Garcia
I enjoy both games, but I prefer Shantae more. I can't believe people are now starting Kickstarter wars. You guys are fucking morons.
Samuel Long
Shantae is an HD 2D/3D game. Shovel Knight is in effect an upscaled 240p Famicom game. One costs more to do than the other.
Joseph Morgan
So? It was their decision, SK will hold up way better in the future. A HGH that looks like RR or PC would also hold up better
Jason Morris
this
it was pretty fun. Bit more linear than I like but not the steaming pile of fetid ebola infected horse dung the faggots keep pretending it is.
Adrian Collins
Old image, also chunks are still missing after a million delays.
>but I prefer Shantae more Nah, you're the moron here. Fucking retarded waifufag.
John Edwards
I prefer the gameplay of Shantae, and the transformations. How dare someone prefer a gameplay style that's different to the one of a game you like, though, right?
Carson Gomez
>Shantae is bad because i say so >Shovel Knight is bad because i say so
Seriously are you expected to be treated as anything but a retard when you make claims like these?
Unless you show why it is a bad game then saying its bad because you don't like it makes you a dumb retard. I don't even like the Shantae games but at least i say that i don't like them instead of being an entitled faggot who pretends to be the holder of the truth
Adam Cook
>I prefer the gameplay of Shantae, and the transformations. Like I said, complete moron.
Dylan Sanders
>Having opinions means someone's a waifufag
Owen Evans
I could not have asked for a better outcome for this farce.
Ayden Stewart
Backers have paid for Shantae's game modes, and now they have to pay for them again because le DLC
Ethan Phillips
I'd say you're worse than console warriors. Calm down, I like your precious Shovel Knight, I even own the physical version with the colour manual. Take a sip of your juicebox, kid.
Christopher Flores
B-but Shantae has titties so the gameplay is GOOD PLEASE BELIEVE ME.
Jason Nelson
what is this autism?
Henry White
backers get every DLC for free, this is mentioned in the OP
get your shitposts right
Nathaniel Taylor
can we post more good shovel knight and shantee art please?
Carter Johnson
You're average Shantaefags, they always sperg out like this if you even dare say anything about their waifu's games.
Camden Gutierrez
>I didn't play the game because I think all the fans are waifufags so I'm just assuming it was a pile of shit and being smug about it
k
I'll just be over here having fun
Jeremiah Scott
Your* This waifu autism is starting to make me retarded too.
Cooper Evans
They're both worse games than AM2R and Muramasa Rebirth anyway.
Jose Powell
maybe if this wasn't a shitpost thread
instead, you get Beck
Jordan Cooper
>anyone who likes Shantae is a waifufag Makes me wonder if people like you enter Shantae threads only to fap at the fanart while i actually play the game
Ian Reed
As a fan of the series i still have to say i expected more. It's one of the if not the shortest one and there was no real reason to make it 2.5d
Adam Ross
I was referring to you.
even if it's the worst game in the world, which you have made no effort to validate as a claim, I'd still think you were being autistic for the way in which you are arguing
like, you are retroactively making me like Shovel Knight less by not wanting to be associated with so vitriolic autism
Wyatt Reyes
>like, you are retroactively making me like Shovel Knight less by not wanting to be associated with so vitriolic autism I know how you feel, m8. These desperate Half Assed Hero apologists are doing the same to me with the Shantae series.
Kevin Gonzalez
Shantae and Shovel Knight get along, why can't you?
Jose Sullivan
So redpill me then, why is this game so bad?
From what i've read: Paid DLC Short Questionable artstyle Was delayed
If those are the only reasons for this game being bad, it still sounds like it'd be a decent game, if disappointing
Michael Thompson
You should know by now how false flagging works. They aren't indicative of Shovel Knight's fans, they're posing as one to make you hate both sides of their manufactured argument.
Easton Brown
What the fuck is this fanfic retardation?
Gavin Morgan
memes
Christopher Thompson
Level design linear compared to the prior Shantae games and they didn't factor in transformations into designing it. Bat trivializes most of the early game for instance.
Honestly it feels like they ignored what ever play testers they had.
Cooper Cooper
I don't get why PC is considered the pinnacle of the series when it has NOTHING that defines a Shantae game.
>No dancing/transformaitons >Magic relegated to consumable items >The EXACT SAME separated hubworld structure that HGH uses, yet it's bad in HGH?
Oh but it's all okay because Shantae can go Sanic fast, has a quad jump and can shoot a gun. I wanted a Shantae game, not Shadow the Hedgehog.
Liam Kelly
You named everything except gameplay. What a shit taste
Blake Turner
Zelda cycle, give it a while
Nolan Evans
Because PC is the only game in the series that's not clunky as fuck and is actually a finished product.
Owen Morgan
Transformations are ass and slow down the game play to make you stop every five seconds to only change back.
PC may have a similar hubworld but each area still has a labyrinth area.
David Reyes
Will wait for the complete version for 3 bucks
Bentley Scott
Then why even call it Shantae? Might as well make another Switch Force game, which is the better series anyway
Colton Morris
Fucking same, or just pirate it all together. Still can't belie these retarded apologist who defend paid DLC when the base game's so bare bones.
Ian Wood
>this whole thread I seriously believe that most people claiming SK or Shantae to be shit have not played the fucking game
Caleb Perez
so is the problem is the difficulty, or are the levels really that bad, cause PC's levels were linear, just wrapped in such a way to not look it
thought I wouldn't hold PC over the other games explicitly, I would say it was fun
Parker Myers
Correction: MN9 got delayed more than twice. Shantae got delayed only once. While I think it's a fine game, I can't help but wonder if the Yacht club people didn't leave Wayforward what would happen to both games. Now, stop being a bitter butt and let people enjoy shit.
Gabriel Hill
The game is a complete mess, and I say that actually liking the series and still having an OK time with it.
Half your transformations are useless beside getting one or two upgrades and then NEVER using them again, the bat gets an upgrade that lets you see in the dark, but there's only one single dark room in the entire game and most non-retarded plebs will have cleared that long before you get the upgrade for it. The mansion level was just fucking nothing, short with nothing of note to it. The final level utilizes really only 3 out of 8 transformations for some reason, and is a complete joke compared to Pirate's Curse final gauntlet which tested your mettle with all of your kit.
It's not just short, it's extremely shallow and most transformations are completely half-assed and there just for the sake of having them with no real practical application.
Lucas Torres
That's a good question, but all that implies is Shantae's root game play isn't very good.
Hunter Harris
>the only game in the series that's not clunky as fuck and is actually a finished product It's cute that you believe that. you have to be 18 to post here.
Camden Gray
>Shovel Patricians >Like discussing the game and posting fanart
>Shanplebs >Circlejerking over the same fanart for all eternity
Gavin Howard
The fuck, but Shantae did well.
Nolan Turner
>and let people enjoy shit. Literally nobody's stopping you from enjoying faecal matter, just don't cry when reasonable people call it shit.
Levi Stewart
>"""""people""""" call it shit (citation needed) >but the larger amount of people who actually enjoyed the game and left good reviews doesn't count
Landon Foster
The issue is the levels are small, linear and you need to revisit each level at least 3-4 times retreading the same paths while now being able to overcome whatever obstacle your latest upgrade opens up for you, only to get a new upgrade that lets you do the same in a different level.
Luis King
Shantae GBC feels jank and old, bro. Sorry to say, was literally playing it yesterday
Brody Fisher
The only reason the final level is easy is because Shantae in HGH can have an invincibility bubble with infinite magic and a free full heal dance. Good luck ever seeing the game over screen. If you want a real final level challenge from WayForward, go play something like Ducktales Remastered.
Gavin Nelson
Just make a game like this again. Shantae lost its touch
Gabriel Foster
How about just don't? Why do you need to? You just come off as an asshole. Anyone can point out glaring flaws in a game and exaggerate its flaws to the point it feels like the game is bad and should just be considered as bad.
