So, what's the /v/erdict?Is it actually a kino game with dynamic combat, or just some chink souls wannabe flashslop qt adventure game?
I haven't played it
Don't know, don't care. These threads make me not wanna care even more
>Check thread>No one's played itDamn. I liked Wukong and Lies of P. Is it as good as those?
>>750640843lies of p is better than this shit desu, despite being a poor man's bloodborne
>>750640289I've heard it's not a soulslike but I also feel like they say that about every soulslike that comes out recently just because it deviates even a bit from Dark Souls, like enemies not respawning after you rest at a bonfire.
>>750641124Lies of P and Wukong were both my GOTY, so it is s high bar. I also love Bloodborne. Phantom looks cool but when I watch gameplay it just seems like a bunch of flurries without weight. I might just buy Queen's Domain. Money isn't an issue but there are a lot of games coming out right now and I don't know which ones if any I want to give my time to.
>>750640289eh, looks like standard china #1 prop-slop.
>>750641353its more or less God of War with Souls-Like steps if they had an incest baby with wuxia lore. I rate it 10/10 rape of nanjing.
It's chinkslop. It's funny how agressively chinks and gooks are bragging while paying for agressive marketing when they have ZERO interesting ideas and can only crap out gachacrap and bland unreal engine slop with confused game design.
Is the game hard or not? I was completely disinterested at first but then i heard it is not hard so i became interested and someone in another thread said they patched it to be hard.
>>750640289>730k peak>barely any threads about it on /v/>GTA 6 has more threads and marketing on /v/ than this gamemakes you wonder
>>750641692It has difficulty levels, and is probably at the same level of difficulty as a Sony game. So GoW/Spider-Man/Uncharted levels. Just engaging enough to keep your attention but not enough to overwhelm you.
It's a decent game, 7/10. Things to like and dislike. Personally I prefer Wuchang (thus far), but at least the combat choreography looks cool. Playing on Hellwalker and at least two of the optional bosses are fucking me up so I moved onto the next map, will come back to them later.
>>750641727It's mostly being played by chinks. Look at the chart for when the peak hours are. It's usually early morning for the US where 99% of people are at work or school.Anyways I've been playing and it's great, I'm on the hardest difficulty and it feels like a blend of Sekiro and hack-n-slash games.
>temu sekiroHard pass
>>750640289It's kino.https://storage.to/2XMQjJErahttps://storage.to/5HXYSlARn
>>750642218that slide while drinking is unironically jeet tier
>>750642218Fromsoft and Capcom are laughing...
>>750641692>disinterestedYou mean uninterested anon; disinterest means to be without bias.
>>750642218Lacks the spectacle of Wukong or the precision of Sekiro/Lies of P. What's this game's strength? Style? I just see lesser variations of elements other recent games have done better. I want to be convinced but it just looks off.
>>750642218Bros... This looks like shit...
>>750640289Absolute kino
>>750640289Most of the positive steam reviews don't even talk about the game at all, most are fake pma "there's no battle pass hyuck!". Looks like a shill campaign is going on.
>>750643256chinese propaganda is OP
>>750643256Ah so the same as /v/
>>750642883Thank you grammar nazi. Are you an llm bot perchance?
>>750643256>Chinese backed game>Chinese shilling is happeningNo way bros
I played about an hour before I became sick of looking at these blurry, smeary visuals. I get that if I had a top of the line PC running maxed at 4K this would look good. But using a pc only slightly above the "recommended specs" makes it unplayably hideous.
>>750643676Should've gotten a ps5 pro instead of larping as a PC gaymur
>>750643676imagine running 8 years old PC build in 2026, lmao, couldn't be me. SEA-fag.
>>750642218i see, it's another chink game where its all spectacle but not substance
>>750643751Nah, Im just going back to playing older good games that run perfectly and not AI coded chink slop
Im 3 hours in and its really disappointing man. I dont care for the cut scenes direction or in game fighting. Running and jumping feels a generation behind. Jump cuts all over the place which makes it feel very chaotic. Fighting and dealing damage feels floaty and light. Coming from Oninusha which wasn't perfect but it felt good, this just doesn't feel right...like it's a copy without the guts.Fucking reviewers fooled me again man.
>>750643796>Im just going back to playingYou're not playing anything faglord don't kid yourself
>>750643874>listening to reviewersgoyim
>>750643785you must be thinking of the koreans
>>750643915Aw sorry. I know that mentioning playing games in this thread was a sensitive topic. Ill do better next time Zhang.
>>750642218I wish people would overlay their inputs so we could see how many buttons they are actually pressing
>>750643983Thanks for proving you didn't go back to playing games fool
>>750643961Same difference.
>>750644037Oh my god hes trapped me in this thread and I cant get out! HEELP IM STUCK IN THE VIRTUAL REALM HEEEEELP!
he's strong...
>>750644253i got him down to 1/3 of his HP first try but he kept beating my ass so will revisit it
>>750642218>master bi yuan of the tianxuan sectshit sounds like gibberish. someone needs to teach the chinamen how to name things.
i've outgrown soulslike, i've played them ever since the PS3 and today i find them to be anti fun games to people who think they're hardcore for beating a shitty game.
>>750640289it's a movie action game like wukong so western theatre kids & game journos hate itthat's a good enough endorsement for me
>>750644420100%. These goddamn chinks name everything with an or X or some shit which all blends together. And another thing--"SHOO SHOO"! HOW CAN RVERY FUCKING WORD IN THE CHINESE LANGUAGE START WITH "SHOO"!? He literally just said blood and father and all I hear is SHOO-SHOO KAI LING CHU SHAI LAI SHOO.HOW!?
>>750644420>The Supreme God Emperor, Controller of the Boundless World of the New Era, Leader of the Nine Heavens Cloud Alliance, Prince of the Shepherd Clan of the God Realm, Immortal King of the Immortal Realm, and Guardian of the Tongshen PavilionDon't you be dissing on their naming nigger it's always more epic than your slop
>>750640289It's not bad, but the combat is floaty and attacks lack impact. You just flail around like you're having a seizure.
>yes actually the game is easy, I did Gold Mask first try>the "first try" HUD
These new swords from the final boss of the 3rd area are pretty sick.
>>750640289i'm not into these soulslop games but i noticed in the steam discussion forum trannies are completely losing their mind and its funny af. sounds like complete chud victory by doing nothing to me
It's trash, wasted 60 and skipped Onimusha hoping it would be good.
>>750645335>skipped a great game just to play soulslopthe state of fromdrones
>I spent money on this game instead of pirating it
So what is the enemy AI actually doing to adapt to my combat style in the harder difficulty? I finished the act 3 area last night and the only things I've died to are optional bosses and their gimmicks. The regular combat fodder and story bosses are just too easy to sekiro spam parry and dodge around. I don't feel like the game is actually trying to outplay anything i'm doing at any time.
>>750644584The focus on combat over exploration is what bothers me the most about modern soulslikes
>>750645451I believe their AI only changes when you die to them
>>750640289CCP propaganda slop.They're trying to buy you to own woke america, but they also want to rule over white men themsleves.
>>750645568id rather have a chinaman in charge than a tranny.
>>750645568Fuck the CCP but triple fuck troons and fuck you, fag
>pangzhen death sceneNO what the FUCK goddamn I hate you
>>750641692It's not hard but so far I've died the average amount of times I die in any soulslike you can name (about 1 death per hour). Maybe the game gets easier later on so that's why there's a lot of complaints but so far the difficulty is fine.
>>750645515they took only the bad part from soulslikes, instead of taking that lesson and returning to making games like Devil May Cry, Ninja Gaiden, God Hand ect it's stamina bars, smack and roll combat and indirect story telling and a faceless, voiceless insignificant player character.
>>750645515>>750645568this is why noone but america will win with games. Take the entire souls franchise, only an american could come up with that and still have it sell like hot cakes to this day. Every other country may try and reproduce its magic, but they all spin their wheels.
Its alright.
>the level up menu actually hides more skillsneat
>>750644732>nameless king was a cool boss>former consort to the emporer xifu xiangjiangong: sanxijian yunxifuang was a cool bossone of these is possible to say out loud for non-chinese and will lead to your game having good word of mouth. the other will kill your game outside of its home country.
>>750640289I’m enjoying it but not as good as onimusha. The shader updates are a fucking ass pain but it’s scratching an itch I didn’t know I had after onimusha. I need to finally play sekiro
>>750645568I rather live in a world ruled by based china
>>750647138retard they want this wokeshit in other countries, they just dont want it domestically
>>750647138retards think they do until they get sent to the gulag talking shit online about winnie the pooh
>>750640289it's fun as fuck and the combat feels satisfying but there are a couple bullshit bosses that are way less fun because they're designed in such a way that they incentivize you to hold block until a blue/red attack to deal any real damage which feels counter to the whole premise of their free flowing combat systemoverall a solid 8-9/10 unfortunately i've truly lost hope that we will ever get a game that's so simple and satisfying as Sekiro ever again
>>750640289I'm only about 5 hours in so it's hard to give you a good opinion yet. It's alright so far. It starts kind of weak with all the tutorial/intro stuff you'd expect but it's starting to get better now that I'm getting more weapons and combat tools. Each weapon seems likes it's going to be pretty unique aside from the three sanguine weapons which seem kind of basic. I beat the bride slut and the hunt guy and both took a fair amount of tries and I'm on hard mode. The most puzzling design choice so far is just that enemies don't respawn. I understand if they don't want them to respawn when you interact with a bell but they should at least do so when you warp to a different bell and/or die. My opinion on the game is still neutral, I can't rave about it but I can't shit on it, I simply need to play more before I can give a better verdict.
KINOI just had to go back and record this.Fuck you for doing that to my girlFull video with spoilers: https://storage.to/Ti3v073vL
>>750640652What a faggot...
>>750640289This game is upsetting the trannies... why?
>>750648331I hate that all the cool weapons are fucking RT moves.
>>750648572/v/ loves trannies and defends them, because a large piece of the userbase are trannies and not reaffirming them makes them seethe
>>750648750Makes sense. Its not my style of game, but some of the complaints here are retarded.
>>750640289I hate using the word Souls slop, but it's accurate for majority of these so-called new action games (Wukong included).What happened to action games that had clear distinction between each other even if there might be an influence over them? Bayonetta was always not-DMC, but at the same time it doesn't feel as DMC (if it makes sense). Ninja Gaiden or God Hand? Extremely distinct. Then you had MGSR that was its own not-DMC, but it came with its own spin and feel to it that made it feel very distinct.Now when I open one of these action games I only feel like I'm plying FromSoft slop with different skin. Oh, look a not-bonefire. Oh, let me guess... health potions. No attempt to reinvent that item or how it restocks? Nope. Just go to not-bonefire and they restock I guess. You do special upgrades and you will have more of these special health potions.Chink not-Souls slop is even the worse. While everyone was drooling like a retard over this game's combat showcase, my only thought was: "I literally saw same shit in that mobile WWM game. Even red flash light for when you should really parry." It even has QTE that you can't even fail lmao. Love modern gaming! Remember when those meant something? QTE was trash always, but at least it had purpose of making you pay attention then. Now? No worry, little pookie, game is going to hold your hand until you are ready to press it and/or the game just does it for you anyway even if you missed.
>>750649069>Souls slopyou never played the game or even watch 30 seconds of a review for ityour reverse astroturfing faggotry is just as bad as shills for nugears, wolverine, and veilguard
>>750644253did it when I finished the first map, guard break with scarlet flower blade or whatever it even saps hp. After guard breaking switch to the bleed weapon and just go ham on his ass. Wasn't that hard but took a few tries to get the timing down for his grabs and red moves.
>>750649069Le realism doesn't help. Everyone is chasing these hyper realistic graphics, which just makes every game look the same. Even Souls games don't do that and go with more stylized look to them.
>>750649384>buzzwords about things that were never even said because no argumentsYour game is poor man's WWM that is poor man's Souls slop. Cope and dilate. This shit's combat can hold hands with WWM and I'm doing that game a disservice as it tends to have far more novelty with some of its bosses than this game. Sorry ou were scammed out of $60 for a game that you could've experience gajillion times by now by just playing any other Soul slop game.
Very forgettable
>>750649642it shares no mechanics specific to soulslikes
>the banyan heart tree in the mandate placeLiterally the most aids infested shit ever and I only just got to the final part
reviews and trailers for this game make me feel nothing. no disgust, no fomoit's just more ue5...
>>750649069WWM isn't a mobile game though. It's free online game, but not a mobile one. Mobile version only got added much later on demand. However, the point remains it was never designed with mobile in mind, which is what makes something a mobile game.
Honestly this game just makes me want to go back and actually finish Wukong. I don't think the spectacle is really that great, and the combat is too braindead. It's not bad it's just not good either.
>>750649440Speaking of which this blade is so KINO. Fucking exploding flowers it even stops some bosses when you detonate them.
>>750649781Same. As he said >>750649501, hyperrealism stopped being that impressive when every game on the market is doing it. You can show out of context this and let us say upcoming game Zhong Kui to someone who knows neither and they won't even notice it's not the same game. It all fucking looks the same.
>>750640652Your gay post made me want to care about the game more.
>>750650046>Chink lover getting mad becauseWhy are you attached to this random game made by a literal who?
it's way too eaasy. another cinematic experience garbage for consoletardsi sleep
>>750649990that and jagged steel have been my bread and butterso satisfying just wish there were a couple more weapon-specific execution animations as the jagged steal ones get old fast
>>750640289I’m waiting for the physical version next year. I thought Wukong and Wuchang were pretty kino. I don’t get the extreme asshurt that games from China cause on here. A good game is a good game, and everything I’ve seen about PBZ so far looks pretty inoffensive. Unless you’re one of those muh challenge souls troons.
>>750649781I'm in the same boat. I'm looking to see if to buy or no and so far I'm not seeing anything that makes me make those onion thumbnail faces like everyone talking about this game.It also doesn't help that we had lots of these Chinese Wuxia themed game of late, one after the other, with same exact look that is just another extremely realistic looking slop that you can find in 99% of games today.
>>750640289/v/ is the only place I see anyone talking shit about it and it's really just because there's no other way for threads on this site to go. If everyone played it and liked the gameplay, then what? Positivity can't really sustain a thread and that's why negativity permeates across all boards.Say nice things is boring. Game's fun, game's good, okay now what?
>>750650108>more gay tranny rambling
genuinely how am I supposed to parry the regular attacks from the drunk guy at the bridge
>>750650376>lots of these Chinese Wuxia themed game of latenigga there have been like 5 ever, this is the most manufactured, reverse astroturfed "fatigue" i've ever seenclearly you didn't live through the 2000s "brown fps" era
I feel like this is the 20th sekiro style game that’s come out this year.
>>750645802Ninja gaiden is overrated.Not every game needs to be combo slop. Slower combat like ds1 is perfectly fine.
>>750645818Soulslikes aren't an American genre, retard.
>>750651776Where are the other 19? Asking for a friend
>>750650376What are you talking about? Wuxia games in the west are extremely niche. They've usually been asian only and only just recently started coming to the west. However, people in the west have this extreme aversion to anything wuxia/xianxia related that I don't understand while slurping up modern western dogshit. Where Winds Meet is a mix of wuxia/xianxia but the devs keep shooting themselves in the foot. I can't even name other wuxia style games that have come out recently
I am having a hard time moving on from my bleed sword. Against anything that can bleed it feels really fucking good. I barely even use my 2nd weapon.Also I got the throwing knives and the poison is also really fucking good. Two poisons on Golden Mask 2 did about 35-40% of his life making the fight much easier.
I hate Souls style storytelling in it. Characters prattle on endlessly and have super long cutscenes but somehow they made everything vague.
Not sure I really get the "dance" in fights. What am I meant to do? Be on the offensive or stay on the defensive until the boss runs out of sha-chi? I'm at the drunken fighting boss and he whoops me.
>>750652521>Two poisons on Golden Mask 2 did about 35-40% of his lifechrist i just got those, need to try that faggot againalso keep going back to based jagged steelthe drunken sword feels p fun but drunken steel and the red lilly two hander combo are just so strong
gaijin here chinese is just an objectively worse language to listen to than japanese and korean
>>750652731Literally whatever floats your boat. You can axe smash him when he puts his shield up
Is the flowery memory bugged? I had my health upgraded 2 times already and it still says I'm at 0 flowers.
>>750653554same
>>750653694r*ddit says it's a mistranslation and not a bug apparently oh well, fucking idiot chinamen
>>750644723Chu flai dohn bo'tha mi
>>750640289>what's the /v/erdict?it's more wuxia chinklop with bad storytelling and UE5 default assets.
>>750654027Sorry, I should've specified no jeet opinions.
>Loved Wukong>Try everything else that Wukong opened the doors for>They all suckI kinda want to try this but nothing from the videos so far has looked better than monkey game. Monkey game was great.
>>750653194Definitely sounds better than Korean.
Is the drunk sword worth learning to use or is it bad?
What did they mean by this?
>>750652731You can dodge/parry out of anything except RT and LT moves, you can spam basic attacks into their block to force them to attack so you can continue to parry
MYSTERY ORB NIGGA
After like 3 hours i defeated the golden masked nigger.I was feeling like wow, I am king. In chapter 2 I cant even survive against him for a minute.
i'm not fighting the same white gorilla monster for the 10th time so far so it's at least better than Onimusha for me.
>>750640289just beat 3rd boss. its kino confirmed. what an awesome boss fight.
>>750657810
>>750657886waifu confirmed
>promotional screenshots are muddy and artifact riddengoddammit, UE is a blight
Fun game, on par with Stellar Blade in entertainment value, if a little easy unless you try the optional bosses early but fuck please what is it with action games lately and enemies staggering backwards when you hit them? It feels awful to always be fighting them against a wall.
>>750642218Looks more fun than Wuchink at least. Shame you can't play as a cute chinese girl though.
>>750658985I think I enjoyed Wuchang more but Phantom Blade is also good.
>800k supposed concurrent players>no one played it hmm
>>750659586Most of China does not speak English, let alone post on 4chin
>>750645418>nuonimusha>great game>thinks that this chinkshit is soulsadjacentNigger, you're retarded
>>750645515This is why Wuchang is so underrated.
>>750658893>if a little easyI'm having a harder time with this game than with Sekiro. I'm not joking.
>>750640289
>>750657810What is the name of the third boss
>>750659864Not looking to rub it in, but genuinely how?
Are the new weapons accuired from bosses always the best? Should I just reverse my old weapon and put everything on the new accuired weapon?
>>750660387Either something is wrong with my controller, or I don't understand the parry timings of the bosses. The pattern is always the same: I borderline first-try them, often having them at literally 5% HP or less and then I die, and I come back and I struggle to get them below half for like 10 attempts until they finally die. 10 attempts for me is something like Madame Butterfly, not a normal boss.
>>750645515Souls combat is not even very good, i don't understand why they keep copying it.
>>750657810>>750657886goddamn chinese bitches are ugly
>>750659804Ok shill me Wuchingchong why is it good?
>>750660664false.korean > chinese > japanese
>>750660612You have to parry at the beginning of the animation, basically, not when it's about to hit. The window is quite wide which might explain why you still sometimes succeed and feel like you don't understand what you're doing wrong.
>>750660690Exactly what that anon said. It's a soulslike that actually puts effort into it's level design and exploration so it feels like exploring is actually a solid part of the gameplay experience and fun and not just a series of boring corridors between every boss fight like most modern soulslikes are.
>>750660735people have different tastes but listing the plastic surgery people as #1 is simply incorrect
>>750660690He's probably referring to the feather system. I also liked Wuchang. However, niggers on /v/ are too stupid to understand anything so they naturally sucked ass at the game. The exploration is great and the gameplay is fun
>>750660794plastic surgery is OP in moderation
>>750660690Fun variety of builds. Fun weapons. Fun bosses. Great visual design. Great level design. Surprisingly interesting story and setting. Unpretentious.
>>750640289>>750642218chink is such an ugly subhuman language
>>750659586very literally all China
>>750660860it's a crime against nature
>>750661120humanity's objective function is to subvert nature -- nature wants you dead
>>750661284Bogging yourself is not the answer
>>750661462depends on the context
>>750660860People having plastic surgery never have moderation they all end up gigabogged.
>>750660832The gameplay is the worst part. Wuchang gets up after being knocked down like she's a 90 year old grandma with arthritis, meaning you will get hit at least once or twice, the dodge cooldown is too long for the rapid chain attacks that some of the bosses have(Honglan and Perfect Bride are the worst offenders, I didn't play that shit after that).
>>750661597I only ever felt this was an issue in 2 fights. The old white robed general guy and the demon version of Wuchang. Every other boss was fine.
>>750660581Nah, they tend to have gimmicks to them. Damage wise everything ends up being near the same just some require utilizing the LB+Y or charged Y moves to really get mileage.
>>750661120Humans are the most unnatural things on earth.
>>750661597>the dodge cooldown is too long for the rapid chain attacks that some of the bosses have(HonglanTurns out what I said is true. I said this a million times in the Wuchang threads but you guys aren't utilizing the games mechanics. You can bully the fuck out of Honglan on your first encounter without the longsword parry BUT that requires you to actually engage with the games mechanics. If you don't, you're going to get bullied and that sounds exactly like what you experienced. It's the exact same shit with Nioh. People refusing to engage with the game properly, ignoring combat mechanics, and then complaining how everything is "too hard". Every single time.
realistically, when are you on the same level as the 3 faces puppet?
>golden mask in the second region has twice as many moves as in the first one and even more HP
So the hardest difficulty is the way to go right?
>>750661916>you should completely revamp your build before every boss encounter>no there's no option to save your builds and switch between them on the fly
>>750660860You are spiritually bankrupt.
>>750662343>resorting to making things upClassic
>stamina tied to the weaponSo, Muramasa basically?
>>750640289It's kino as fuck action arcade goodness with great polish.Think Chinese God of War meets Ghost of Tsushima and a splash of Resident Evil.It's a PS5 game. Cinematic, QTEs, 3rd person camera, stealth kills, crouching in tall grass, simple and flashy suck to target combat.
>>750662132its not that bad, just dodge his sha-chi draining moves and avoid that mechanic entirely
>>750662407spirit is a coping mechanism for the poors
>>750662535It's not stamina. Sha Chi is your "killing intent". It's not stamina. Doesn't burn when you dodge or use regular attacks. It resets when you switch weapons and land perfect dodges.
golden mask is the worst gimmick fight i've ever playedwhoever designed that should die
>>750657810Cute Chinese monkey girl.
>>75064172795% chinamen
>>750660381snake puppet
>>750660664
>>750657810She was my least favorite boss so far. At this point I am glad the phases don't reset, because I found her harder than the puppet who is literally like an endgame boss you can fight early
>>750662185Yes. You can just switch the difficulty at any time anyway, so it doesn't matter what you pick at the start.
Damn this guy looks cool as fuck

>>750664481I haven't played Crimson since it came out but I remember it being real easy
normally I think racism is funny but is the chinaposting in this thread just thinly veiled cope that they produced something vastly superior to most of what American companies churn out these day?
>>750660860But we're talking about Korea here
Is there supposed to be an actual cutscene after defeating the axe master? It's just a black screen with text and sound for me...

>>750665106difficulty wise yeah but it's not the same kind of game and playing stylishly is very very demanding which makes it cool. what I've seen of PBZ doesn't seem like it's demanding and it doesn't look that cool but since it's your typical linearish soulsish action game I'm over here scratching my head a bit. it seems a lot worse than wukong to me, is that accurate?
>>750665256I don't like China but I don't like America either. Why is the game automatically bad because it's Chinese when American game devs get away with far worse?
>>750665440as an american i like trad chinese lore.doesnt change the fact that we need to crush them globally.i dont think the west is winning btw.
>finally beat that gold masked faggotjesus fuck i hate gimmick fights
>>750665582It's barely even a gimmick fight, the thing you need to do to beat him is something you should be doing in every fight.
>>750665286>looks genericyou retards don't know what that word means
>>750665648>invulnerability except for when you trigger a specific action is not a gimmick
>>750665693>>750665349>>I think Where Winds MeetI thought it was wulong or some team ninja game
>>750665759>looks generic>thought it looked like it was specific game or one made by a specific dev pick one
>>750665440Because the Chinese are ontologically incapable of making good video games. American AAA devs forgetting how to make games doesn't make Chinese games good.
>>750665693so what's it mean, Zhang
>>750665286Where the winds meet, it's gachaslop but it's ok for few hours.
>>750665362>is that accurate?Absolutely not. Gold Mask will filter anyone that think they don't need to learn the game
>>750665098All these parry-based games are Sekiro/Wolong copies.
>>750666285not a single one plays like sekiro you are mentally ill
>>750642218floaty garbage chink gameplay they love their floaty garbage
>>750666285I wish it was like Sekiro, but it isn't you fucking faggot find a rope.
>>7506402897/10wukong but this time its sekiro
>>750640289>Listening to /v/ in 2026Anyway, game is fucking amazing as shit. That's all that needs to be said.
>>750640289146GB???WHY???any vibe coders out there who can do something about this bullshit?
>>750640289>145gb of free space. Yeah no
>>750666797>retard finds shit to be amazing
Can someone explain to me why Where Winds Meet has better gameplay I'm actually tempted to redownload that and catch up on all the content they added that I can solo.
The chinks are not happy about the female characters getting DEId. The only positive was the removal of the NTR/cuck subplot between the brothers. kek
>>750667092No.
>>750667132Damn literally a man. The woman are pretty ugly in this.
>>750667219PB0 makes me want to go back to Where Winds Meet... The only Chinese action game that has great combat.
>>750667092>>750667381I would play WWM if it wasn't a pseudo MMO.>inb4 but it can be played sol-I don't care. The MMO adjacent shit ruins it.
>>750667381Cool!
>>750666797>GoW:(>GoW: chinaWOWIE :O
>>750667526I love how much people repeating this dumb shit just makes it obvious you troons don't even play video games and just get all your opinions from E-celebs.
>>750640289It's actually great, kinda plays like GoW with tons of badass moments and way better more impact full animations, seriously the subhumans are Santa Troonica making GoW: Laundry should pay attention to this
>>750645818Amerimutt's video game industry is going up in flames, the only thing mutt game industry does better than anyone else is ensuring people don't buy or play their shitty games
>>750667556Okay buddy, you watchi your conematics and press the left button for blue and right button for red until you can x to awesome. You know what, you're right. God of War had better combat than this shit.
>>750640289As someone who really liked Wukong and did 100% in it and im a character action game autismo Im very dissapointed. This game is literally nu GoW but by chinese. Thats all you need to know. I geniuenly have no idea why this reviewed so high.
>>750667526I play both, what the fuck is wrong with you? Actuall /v/ is getting worse.
>>750667783Why did you like Wukong when its not a character action game either then?
The map 2 boss is breaking me. I don't know if I am playing a different game than you guys, but this is Sekiro tier. Every second boss is Madame Butterfly. In fact, I genuinely think Sekiro was easier when it comes to bosses.
Out of Wukong and Wuchang it's the worst chinkgame imo, it's really fucking bland. Both games are masterpieces compared to this.
>>750668051>game journos say the game is fucking easy>totally not chinese shills come here to say that it's haaard ooohhh so hard harder than japanese i hate japan soooo muchfucking lmao
>/v/ emulation threads: 10 anons complaining/300 anons wanting>/v/ just released new game threads: 300 anons complaining/ 10 anons playingTimes are really hard.
>>750668149I played it for a bit after waiting for 25 fucking minute on a shader screen. It's not a good game. It's a shitty AAA moviegame but CHINA
>the absolute fucking insanity of the snake girl fightWhat the hell was even going on in the second phase
fuck bros...he hates it...
>>750668323>>750667556lol
>>750668046Just because im autismo about genre doesnt mean I cant enjoy action rpgs. Wukong was fun Phantom Blade 0 is boring and its design decisions remind me too much of nu God of War games which I hate.
>>750668323who
It seems like a "press x to awesome" kinda game where the visual results of pressing a button are comical compared to the effort of actually doing it is.
Reading the comments in this thread and seeing ones from retards like >>750668323 makes me think either almost no one actually plays the games they talk about or they're actually so severely mentally impaired they can't understand what they're looking at.
>>750668130I thought the game journos are paid off by China? Which is it?
I dunno why people were raving about the drunken sword, i'd say the HP sapping odachi you get from the bandit is way stronger.
>>750668470both
>>750668375I don't even get the God of War comparisons, your character power progression isn't the same at all and both games just have basic side paths get random shit you won't use. God of War doesn't use stamina and has cooldown based moves
>>750668481BING CHILLING
>>750668481I'm stuck on here in hellwalkerJust
>>750668452The amount of die hard "dark souls" players who can't do one street fighter or king of fighters combo to save their life will always be funny to me because they think pressing y to invinc roll takes skill or knowing when to hit light/heavy attack or being a magic fag
>>750668481Having a sword that can hit enemies from 20 feet away seems ridiculous at first, and it kind of is against regular enemies, but I feel like most bosses either have the gap closers or ranged moves to deal with you trying to spam attacks from a distance.
>>750668634>>750668481Drunk sword feels really nice in a few fights, but until you sword temper it to remove the damage fall off its not super good.
>>750668634Even normal foes start getting gap closers like those fatasses who can roll into you.
I think if people liked it, you'd have your answer. There would be multiple threads. Turns out, people probably don't like it because it sucks.
>>750668741>Gets rave reviews from both critics and consumer>actually everyone hates it so you know it's badActual genuine schizophrenia.
>>750668538kek
>>750668597Fromsoft has ruined action game discussion in so many ways it's insane. I like their games but its honestly gotten to the point where I almost wish they never existed so I don't have to listen to retards say shit like:>Dude, where's the WEIGHT in these attacks, they're so FLOATY. Why isn't this guy swinging a 3 pound sword like it's a 100 pound steel beam.>*sees a move that's even slightly flashier than a guy swinging a sword from side to side* Wow, all flash and no substance, unlike my Fromsoft games *goes back to mashing R1 and L1 in Sekiro and soifacing at the canned execution animations*.
>>750668878It just seems like a linear game. I'm sure it will have its fans. But overall, I just don't think it's a deep, well grafted game
>>750668948>It just seems like a linear game. It's not>I'm sure it will have its fansYeah everyone>I just don't think it's a deep, well grafted gameSchizophrenia
>>750668878browns are always out in full force to reverse astroturf against chink games
Reminder that it's been one tranny the entire day making shitposts itt because "she" despises China because there's no niggers in the game. The same thing happened with Wukong.
>>750640289It's sekiro 2.0 which makes it shit like the sekiro game.
>>750668942Basically. Sekiro and DaS1 are my favorites, and I like all their games, but these games really do bring out the worst subhuman roaches. I'm not particularly keen on PB0's flow of combat, it does feel a little loose but it's not terrible. Just takes some getting used to, it reminds me a little bit of Astral Chain. Anyway, all these action games aren't going to be the same and that's fine as long as it isn't playing like dogshit.
There's something hilarious about culture warriors throwing their full weight behind china.>it's da browns>it's da trannies>i love this dogshit!
>>750669009>>750669062kek love how quickly they jump out to prove the point right>>750669138
>>750669138You're the one bringing up culture war topics though.
>>750669214>>750669246>can't stop sperging about betta than da west betta than japan>no you're doing itthe sinoshill operates much like the jew.
Anyone actually playing the game, or we gonna shitpost on /v/ all day?
>>750669397I did, but i've been told i haven't because i'm not sucking its dick.
>>750669397Yes
>>750668323>"Christian" dadThese guys are arms of right wing propaganda. They shit on anything Chinese. >>750668046NTA but I own both. In Wukong, you press a button, you get an action. Attacks have purpose and weight. Everything he does is because of your input. In Phantom, you press a button, you get six sword attacks, then you press another button and get eight. It looks cool but is completely disassociated from you as a player. The game constantly feels floaty because of this. I personally don't like it.
>>750669397I'm not playing it at this moment, but I did play earlier today.
>>750669397you know you get nothing out of playing games?Its literally a waste of time
>>750669435...You're aware that there are hundreds of millions of christian fathers out there, right?
>>750669328Notice how nobody said those things. Almost like your culture war accusations are projection and you do in fact have a bias against Chine while nobody else has a bias for Chine but simply likes the video game.
It's just a really not a good game, that's all.
>>750668942>I hate when people use plain spoken language to clearly communicate a fault in how a videogame feels to playKingdom Hearts has weight to it despite being about a cartoon kid who flies around the room shooting off fireballs with a duck. Attacks having or lacking weight to them isn't a unique criticism borne out of Fromsoft's success.
>>750669397I got work soon, Ill play tomorrow.
>>750669397Finished 2 maps. There are some issues (in particular i fucking DESPISE the dogshit charge system for special weapons, i hated that faggotry in sekiro and silksong too) but generally it's a solid and enjoyable action game.
>>750669734Not a fan of it either but at least it doesn't make you farm/buy charges like Sekiro and they just regen at the bells.
>>750669509I'm not going to bother explaining to you why you're an idiot.
Am I a brainlet? I just dont understand the story. They came up with so many shit and except you to know about everything.I just cleared the second map with the retarded masked chick guarding the broken guitar and I had no clue who the fuck she is or why is she so fucking weird.That boss was the worst so far desu
>>750669815Tranny.
>>750669930There is nothing wrong with being trans.
>>75066939715 hours deep, still only like halfway through the second mapinsanely fucking satisfying finally filling that gold masked faggot, but i don't have the heart or willpower to fight another version of him in the second pillar today
>>750669930>Immediately starts thinking about trannies They make you fags in a factory, don't they.
>>750669734>mfw this is exactly the point i am >>750669992
>>750669992The second version is easier despite new attacks. Dodge his ki breakers, poison him.
>>750669916It’s designed for the Chinese mind
>>750670032No iti s called being a normal person, while you are a dumb democrat libtard.
>>750669916I'm like Adam Jensen, man. I don't even know whose side I'm on. Seriously.
>>750669916Yeah I stopped caring and basically skipping everything.
The mods this game needs>radial menu for weapons and especially for phantom weaponry, it makes no sense to only be limited to 2 unless you hardswap, give a slot for all types of phantom weaponry at least>a better resource system for phantom weapons, lower capacity but ability to generate them on hits or something>full rebind>a more responsive jump, noticed that the game drops jump input many times after combos and jump is needed for the swallow wing like gap closer it has on jump attacks
>>750670092>iti sShitting your pants with rage already. >It's called being a normal person thinking about dudes in dresses who chop their dicks off all dayFaggot. You are too stupid to engage seriously.
>>750669916I treat the story in this game like Wuchang and Wukong. I ignore it. Wuchang I could kind of follow at least, but I don't pay it any mind.
>>750670267Yes I am mad for encountering a dumb retard like you, thank god after midterms trump will deal with you.
>>750670353>Trump>Trannies>iti sAnyways, like I was saying, Wukong feels good to play and Phantom is kind of shit. That's all there is to it.
>>750669916I am really trying to pay attention but it is the same. I guess chinks are learning this shit at school or I don't know.All I know that some kind of retard took the mc and his brother in, then they turned into megajews, and the mc didn't want to forsake his forskin.Otherwise I have no clue tf is happening, the mandate, or who are the masked guys, or why is everyone a zombie. The game is fun tough.
>>750649990>no ragdolls>bodies instantly vanishAND dropped.
>>750670581>The game is fun tough.It's a simple life, but a good one.
>>750670581Chinese storytelling in a lot of its media is choppy and fast paced, contextualizing nothing and expecting you to make sense of it backwards. I'm not sure why it is but it just seems their preference for storytelling, a lot of times, is completely at odds with how we're used to it/like it in the west.
>>750669916I'm at the same point and what i gathered is>MC and his asshole rival are orphans who get adopted by local enforcers, grow up into great masters>a few years back the rival started conspiring within the order to ruin the entire order which led to the fuck fest in the forest where puppet girl got taken by one of the traitors and rival stabbed another hero>either MC kills the leader of the order for some reason, or his rival blamed him for it, they fight and stab each other's hearts>it's implied MC has some mysterious lineage, probably a kid the golden mask saved in the flames, which is why he keeps training MC when he visits him
>>750669916no clue i just left it on chink voice acting for the vibes and am playing like i'm the main character in a jackie chan movie
>>750670337>WukongThat one is unfair. No matter what you think about the gameplay, the story is actual art that journalists always lie about wanting in video games.
>>750670917Idk man, Wukong was cool but I couldn't understand shit besides the beginning and very end (which was kino). The Chapter 2 animation was pretty cool too
I'm getting walled by the snake bitch at the end of the second map. I don't get the fight at all, it's the most difficult thing I've fought in years, and I cleared NG Black just last year. Am I just retarded? Any advice is welcome.
>>750670982If western studios ever appreciated their own culture they could make an Odyssey game that is just as culturally rich and takes its legacy completely serious like Wukong.
This is the first parryslop where I really like the bossfights. It doesnt feel like bosses doing the same pattern moves over and over again, sometimes it even feels like the AI tries to fuck me with the moves which are hard for me to dodge.Also the bosses are doing shit like you wouldnt except. The big shield guy suddenly sledging on his shield was a big kek.My only wish would be for Soul to have more character, his personality is like a rock lying on the street.
>>750671014>NG Blackyou know that the first NG run in wukong is the easiest one?
>>750671179...I meant Ninja Gaiden Black. I can see where the confusion came from though.
>>750671127>Soul to have more character,This. I really loved onimusha because it had a Gigachad with a personality. and not a mute "I am so fucking great" guy.
>>750640289I won't spend any money on it unless /ourguy/ Mork recommends/reviews it positively.
>>750671014I don't know man, I am pretty sure that I am the worst parryslop player ITT thread, I wish I could help you. I was stuck with her for like 2 hours until it clicked.
>>750671127I do like how most of them have their own unique gimmicks and you're not just fighting a regular guy with a sword every time.
>>750671014There's no "trick" really, she's just a hyperaggressive bitch who barely gives you any openings. Second phase is more of a spectacle since puppet tits shows up out of nowhere to help you
I would like to thank the anon who recommended Blade of the Guardians to me the other day. This movie was sick. The fights were unreal and ancient warriors in the desert is a kino aesthetic every time.
Jagged Steel and Scarlet Wraithblade make for a pretty kino loadout. A lot more savage and a lot less flow-like-water compared to the other movesets. So many decapitations, such brutality.
>>750671960firing up a torrent now
>>750671989my only complaint with jagged steel is that the execution animations get old and i wish there were morewhereas the wraithblade executions are KINO as fuck and hit every time
>meet a hot blacksmith>her name is Forge Kojima...
>>750672146Jagged Steel's "run them down" isn't great but the "forced kneel into decapitation" is terrific, if a bit long. But yeah with only 2 executions per weapon they are bound to get old.
And just like that Jagged Steel is unmatched.
I love how despicable most characters are. This is really a chink fantasy.>lemme just backstab a bitch from our order if you bring me this doll who is also our ally
>>750671989Wait until you get the bandit sword
>>750668470>makes me think either almost no one actually plays the games they talk aboutThis is always apparent. I've seen a lot of threads over the course of 16 years here where people don't know what they fuck they're talking about and blabber with confidence. I remember having to mentally sift through posts when I used to ask what a game was like back in 2011-2013. You could really tell the anons that played the game vs the retards that haven't.>they're actually so severely mentally impaired they can't understand what they're looking at.This is also very true. Some big examples are Nioh and FF7 remake/rebirth. If you know, you know
>>750669435>Attacks have purpose and weightopinion immediately discarded>you press a button, you get six sword attacksliterally just a factually incorrect and demonstrably false statement
>>750672353You can upgrade it to 70% too but honestly the sword doesn't feel that special, the blood loss proc isn't that much compared to Souls games.
>>750672945Yeah the blood loss is basically just an occasional free hit. Staggers when it procs, at least. Solid moveset on that weapon though.
>include a fist weapon>it's only Phantom Edge
A friend told me it's pretty good. Nothing ground breaking or innovative. I can't but feel there is a bit of astroturfing going on social media and from people like Asmongold.
>>750673213sounds like you got phantom edged
>>750640289Another sword parry slop game. Hard pass.
>>750673261GIVE ME FIST WEAPONS MOTHERFUCKERS AAAAIIIIIEEEEE
>>750673213at least it's sick as hell and you can still haymaker half-hp niggas for free
>>750642218Do we really need more of these games?
>exactly 1 minute apart
>>750673379you're right, we need ANOTHER assassins creed but this time you're a strong independent BLACK eqyptian queen on a mission to assassinate evel WHITE colonizers
>>750673496That will send the message.
>>750672945sure but it's already got high base damage even without the bleed proc
Is the story any good at all? Like would it be at least as engaging as say Resident Evil Requiem and Pragmata? I find if a game doesnt have at least a semi engaging story that I just get bored and stop playing.
>>750673419He's been at it the whole day.
>>750673496I mean I don't disagree with you but I don't think we need more souls and parry slop.
>>750673589If that's your standard then yes.
>>750643256Even if this game is honestly like a 10/10 you cant trust the reviews as Chinese people are obsessed with shilling their own games either for pride reasons or maybe they get social credits points for doing it or something.
>>750643874You need to fucking learn that reviewers are likely younger than you now so they didnt grow up playing old games so their standards are shit.
>>750673641100 new games on steam every day, whats wrong with one more parry-focused action game?
>>750673641>weplay something elsegames like Mortal Shell 2, Valor Mortis, PB0, Khazan, are keeping the action rpg alive the west will kill this genre
>>750640289I was really looking forward to it but finding out it's parryslop killed it for me. Parrying becoming a core foundation killed action games harder than rollslop did.
>>750645335Onimusha isnt good either desu. Both of these games are pretty meh.
>make more generic asian setting Souls-slop>make it easy as fucktrash game
>>750673708It's just simple patriotism. Well, they are so patriotic because of all the propaganda, so maybe not "simple" patriotism.
>>750673849how people aren't tired of not only soulsslpp but generic asian settings is beyond me
I'm playing the better FROM-like that came out reently (Queen's Domain)
>>750673889also have this on my wishlist but saving it until after PB02 more weeks and i'm taking a /comfy/ lil 3-6 month sabbatical from work to fuck off and play vidya and shoot all day and shirk all my responsibilities KINO incoming
>>750673889You fat nigger, that came out today not "recently". Nobody knows about this so I assume you're a dev. In that case, fuck off nigger. I will look at this game because I like King's Field but you're still a nigger
>>750673868For many it probably because the Asian setting is somewhat more interesting than the typical fantasy European style world setting. Give it time and people will mostly grow tired of it too.
>>750673889Kill yourself, I am playing both
>>750668481>>750668634You're practically invulnerable in drunk mode. >>750642218The only clunky part about it is when you do the special attack because you can get guard broken while doing it.
nuke chinanuke russianuke irannuke palestinenuke north korea
These towers are by far the most interesting aspect of the setting thus far
>>750674112>leaving out israel, india, the middle east, and all of africa
>>750673889This one is next on my list, seen some really good impressions
>>750673889Is this any good? I was put off a few months ago in the demo threads when people said the dialogue is reddit cringe that doesnt take the setting serious
>>750674157>no photo mode at launchfucking hate this trend
>butt naked pizza delivery girl puppetsdamn maybe the lady is alright
Does anyone else hate the fucking weapons in this game? I've reached up until the sword saint or whoever that uses his sword with telekinesis and shit. The only weapon so far that I've liked is the fucking meme wooden sword weapon because it rapes the parry meter everything else feels comically underpowered or too slow. Also any tips on this stupid fuck ass nigger with all his visual clutter and bullshit combos.
Yeah okay this boss is absolute fucking bullshit, pure luck based
>>750674278>too slowthere is no reality in which you unironically think any weapon in PB0 is "slow"more shit brown indian reverse astroturfing
>>750674397literally looks like a dark souls area, why do chinese copy everything
>>750674424I'm talking about the two handed weapons in that instance fuckass retard. You'd know that if you could read between the lines. Dumbass.
>>750674212I'm not very far into it but so far I would say it has very intricate and fun to explore level design but basic combat, which I guess it's to be expected since it's a KF-likeDialogue is fine, I only encountered one character that could consider "ironic" and it's a merchant in a pocket dimension
>>750674278For me it's >>750671989As for drunken nigger, he's a real pain in the ass. His moves are not well telegraphed but parry timings are pretty forgiving, spam block when he's attacking and be ready to counter the red/blue attacks at the end. Getting random perfect parries during his flurries will build up good stagger by itself. Some of his drinking animations (when he has a bubble) will give you enough time to swing the axe and break his shied, which will instantly put him in stagger mode. One of the drinking animations has his sword swinging around him during it, don't bother trying to break that one. You can extend your dps window a little bit by using your weapon's unblockable combo move right before his stamina recovers, which should help a bit.All in all, his fight is a slog and you can't do much besides fish for perfect parries/dodges.
>>750674456>why do chinese copy everythingthe literal only single distinct feature in that arena are the candlesliterally nothing noteworthy at all what the fuck are you claiming was "stolen" you brown faggot
>>750674468name one they are not slow at allevery weapon in this game is as fast or faster than basically any weapon in any souls game
>>750674612chinese are brown
>>750674682i hope a nigger invades your home and buttfucks you to death
>>750674725why are you so mad, are you chinese lol
>>750674278Are we playing the same game?
>>750674752i'm a straight white man with a pension ggnore ez
great game, super fun, incredible animation qualitybut i kinda hate the fucking tired trope of>deplete stamina/posture >vulnerable>deal slightly more damageSekiro has never been topped, and nobody has frankly even come close
This sword is surprisingly great. Not being able to parry blues is a big downside but weaving that charged heavy attack in your combos is some chef kiss shit
>>750674972At least you can dodge blue attacks. Seems like it gets some form of perfect block at max rank but who knows how long off that is.
>>750674610I stopped using the jagged blade because I was fighting the bride and she was a doll so the bleed did nothing for me. I switched to the wooden sword and it fucked her up but the damage being so low makes me want to kill myself. Though I've got a little bit of a hand on his combos my real problem is not getting caught in the grabs when I fuck up a dodge or block and he regains his meter back. He's a pain but I'll keep at it.>>750674651Wraithblade. It feels wat too fucking slow with its normal attacks compared to the long sword you get at the beginning with the blacksmith and I already thought that thing was slow. Also I'm not talking about souls am I? I never once brought it up because these are two different games. Obviously this game is faster and there isn't anything as slow as from soft weapons I'm saying in comparison to the enemies I am fighting in this game. Do you understand that now? Let me say it more plainly. These enemies are fast and I feel like the two handed weapons can't keep up. I hope this makes it into your thick head retard-kun. >>750674783Yes
>>750675078If you think the 2h weapons are slow then use the duals.
>>750675413Yeah I'll try them. I've neglected them after touching them once. Maybe they'll help somehow.

Having no option to press a button to advance dialogue is kinda driving me crazy with all these awkward pauses.
>>750640289I expected more. so i ended up being a bit sad.
>>750676040Most of the time you can press B to skip, but sometimes you cant.
>>750676040Press circle
>>750676040>no option to press a button to advance dialogueuhhh anon...
>>750676040?? People keep saying this and it makes me feel like I am going nuts. B/Circle skips does it not?
>>750676040There is a button to skip individual sentences that gets displayed in the button right, it just doesn't work for every sentence, I think when NPCs do a unique animation or something,
>>750640289Every single game is Dark Souls now. I don't know why people keep buying the exact same thing over and over.

>>750676207>Formula works>Other people try formula>Still works????
>>750676207Cuz I like Dark Souls???
>>750641614affirmative this.
Are the enemies just humans, or are there monsters and the like? Does it play more like Nioh or DMC, or like Souls? Is it a QTEfest?
Where the fuck am I even
>>750676559Most enemies are humans, of those three it plays most like DMC but it's very grounded with limited movesets like Souls, though no stamina; it's actually reminiscent of nu-GOW. There aren't many QTEs though some gimmick bosses might as well be.
>>750676559Humans but they didn't lazily reuse the same skeleton model like Onimusha did. Farmers, kung-fu using monks, soldiers and some monsters they all feel unique so far.
this game really is begging for a photo mode
If I were to compare this game with Onimushalevel designpb0>>>>>>>>>Onimushaenemiespb0>Onimushagraphicson par but if you turn path tracing on pb0 is betterbossesOnimusha>pb0 so far but I'm in the first mapanimationOnimusha has top tier parry animationsPb0 has top tier attack animationsStory and charactersPb0>Onimusha kung fu punk wuxia story is better than generic samurai kills yokai to save the worldOnimusha>Pb0 but Onimusha has better cast of colorful villains so far
>>750677615Man not often I see a detailed post like this that I can't find even one thing I'd disagree with. Spot on.
>>750677615I only just started pb0 (a little over an hour in) but Onimusha immediately felt better to play. It was a lot more weight-y. Though I imagine I'll find a weapon in pb0 that will fix that problem for me.
>>750677615Graphics are so ass in onimusha I had to inject a bit of dlss5 to make it look like a modern gamePBZ has better parry animations and they all change from weapon to weapon
>>750677812I don't agree with "less weighty" as a point of criticism because being floaty is not a negative. It's supposed to feel like a kung fu movie and yeah those were floaty in how they looked. The important part is the feedback on inputs and it's definitely there in PB0.
>>750677615i just hated how everything except boss fight in onimusha felt completely lame and pointless wastes of timethe trash mobs were all the same and just stood there waiting their turn to attack before dying in one hit

Game definitely really picked up after the 3rd (4th?) chapter. Understandable that a lot of <2hr players are shitting on it, the beginning definitely sucks ass
This game playable with keyboard or is it way better with controller?
>>750678727Was stuck on her for three hours. Harder than most Sekiro bosses I can think of. Journalists were such lying rats about this game.
>>750679514i always play these types of games on mkb and this plays no different

this bitch is just parry 10,000 times simulator
>>750679514People told me souls games were better on a controller and it was a lie.Nothing is better on a controller, it's consoletard propaganda.
Swapping weapons pisses me the fuck off. WHY DOES IT DEFAULT TO AN ATTACK?I understand you can interrupt the attack with a dodge or parry, but the animation still starts and still moves you forward. They should have just made it so if you press the swap button you can immediately attack, dodge, or parry without any delay. It would serve the same purpose except you can choose.
>>750670691Sounds like a lack of taste or developed culture, and an excuse for not producing something good.
>>750671014She pissed me the fuck off too. I eventually beat her just by getting just enough parries that I was able to brute force her with my heals. I beat her 2nd form on the retry after I inevitably died when I got there with 25% hp and no heals.I also am wondering why people said the game was super easy. It is true that most of the mini bosses are not that hard, I've beaten a handful of them in one try, some in two. But so far the optional bosses and act bosses have been generally tough.
>>750672945The thing is that so many of the other weapons have retarded gimmicks that you have to maintain or keep up for extra damage, and Jagged Blade gets a good attack after guard breaking, a solid special attack, and just free damage via bleeds.
>>750680551If you get the upgrade it does its special move and for weapons that give you a buff it does it without delay
How do I deal with these giant white flowers on the Hua puppet bitch?
>>750681016time it and dodge it
The rainy atmosphere in Pangzhen is so good
I haven't finished it yet but here are my thoughts:The game has a good combat system, but it goes to waste in a lot of really badly designed gimmicky encounters.The term "parryslop" gets thrown around a lot, I think it's reductive and stupid to call a game that even if parrying is it's primary mechanic, but there are many, TOO many bossfights that really are just parryslop. There's an intangible ghost woman boss that literally cannot until you parry her enough to guard break her/trigger her blue counter. There's a lute woman boss who you can barely if ever hit at all until you've done the simon says blue red counter or guard broken her with enough parries. There are big blue shield bosses that take almost no damage until you've guard broken them through primarily phantom weapons (limited resource) and, you guessed it, parrying. There's just too many that are like this. I understand that every game like this has its gimmick bosses but the gimmick bosses outnumber the bosses that meaningfully engage with all the games mechanics. Sometimes it's downright insulting like the Loong pillar dude who will just randomly become completely intangible for several seconds just to insult you even more for trying to do someothing other than fishing for parries. When I went back and fought the three mask woman after I got stronger I just sat there and thought damn, why can't all the bosses be like this? You can fucking hit her, the parry into light attack sometimes interrupts her, she hits hard, does a lot of stamina damage to your guard and has a lot of HP but it never felt gimmicky or unfair. These high budget chinese games are way too focused on having flashy bullshit and visual variety and forget that this is a fucking video game. Who on earth is paying attention to all these long expository dialog cutscenes and reading all these fucking pages?
$60 wasted on a kinda good game, fool me once Sony, you really have no games.
>>750682189>through primarily phantom weapons (limited resource)You always have enough uses to kill them. I've fought two bosses with shield gauges (and one that is tied to his adds instead) and I just used the shield break phantom edge. There's also the shieldbreaker talisman that gives +100% damage to shields>why can't all the bosses be like this?

>>750682189>>750682763I'm gonna be honest, the story is dogshit if you're not Chinese or a wuxia fan. It makes no sense. They don't explain anything. All of the names sound the same and, fuck, a lot of the characters LOOK the same (and I am not saying that in a /pol/ way). They just keep dropping wuxia lingo on you. Some girl got a rift put in her because of the discordance and then her mom cannot be in the waking world but exists in the forest of illusions? They don't bother to even say that the hell any of that means. I mean they're constantly referencing this one word, I do not remember it, but I know through osmosis it basically means the world of the warrior or kungfu, which is basically just a concept and not even a literal place but to the average person they will have no fucking idea what they're on about.
The game is mid and as usual the Chinese larp about how much better they are.This is just AAA slop with not ugly women.
When you start unlocking alternate paths and optional areas with the phantom weapons the game becomes a lot better. Prior then it is basically a corridor simulator. I think the game gets much, much better after like 3 or 4 hours.
>>750683017I really like it when insufferable anons assert their opinion with a smug picture acting as if they're above everything. Very cool personality trait. I hope this happens more often than it already does. Please, continue being an insufferable faggot.
Why are you guys so slow
>>750683017Your whole post is larp slop, use better AI prompts for replies douchebag>hurr I'm fucking smart, told you so
>>750683017>chinks malding about your postkek
>>750682946I mean if you can't make sense of it, the worst thing is that it's a fromsoft game to you where there is practically no story and just a bunch of 'lore' from item descriptions
>>750682189I also forgot to add:The game is HORRIFICALLY inconsistent with context sensitive actions. Triangle/Y attacks often act as gap closers when the enemy you're targeting is at a certain distance, but the game will either CONSTANTLY misjudge your range so your swing falls short even when they're not moving, or the game will simply REFUSE to make it move forward. I know for a fact that this is a bug and bad programming because you can also jump attack as a gap closer, but the game often glitches out and makes it so you don't move at barely at all sometimes with the jump attack even when you move farther forward when there's nothing being targeted at ALL.Also the game is insanely picky about elevation for performing finishers or using the phantom context attack. If the enemy is like one stair lower than you it breaks and you're sitting there hitting the button like a jackass with nothing happening.

>>750643256and most of the negative reviews are using the same vocabulary and language if you notice. Bots vs bots so play the game and find out yourself
It seems like another Beast of Reincarnation to me. Another action parryslop game glazed/shat on because it's from Asia.
>>750688153Beast of Reincarnation never sold more than 10k copies
Advice for people playing Phantom Blade 0, on both consoles and PC.Go to settings in the game, under display you'll find sharpness, it's set to 5/100 by default, crank that boy up to like 30. You'll thank me. By default the game is blurry, and you won't realize it until you turn the sharpness up.

>>750688290>bags under their eyeswhy do every modern jap/china women do this
>>750685924Just beat the snake bitch and I have no idea how so many people are complaining that the game is too easy. If it actually made you do both phases of the fight without a checkpoint in between this would easily be in the top 3 hardest fights I've had to play.
Oh hey, that guy from fortnite. I thought he was just someone I forgot about from chapter 6, didn't know he was from an actual game; he looks super generic.
>>750643961No, Koreans are pay2win grindslop and melodramatic suffering plots.
>>750680539based KB&M chad.
>>750640289I don't play chink slop or gook slop unless I see overwhelmingly good feedback from people who actually play Japanese action games.(never happens)So far I just see the usual shills shilling it becuase you must consoom chink slop if you want to see western shit die o algo.
Yeah this thread is propaganda like all the paid reviews from literal who
>>750691093how do i get paid
>>750642218>looks like the tianxuan sect is now... non-biyuany
>>750677615I'd say PB0 has way better side characters but weak main character. Some side stories you stumble across are peak "chinks stabbing each other in the back in cruelest way possible"
>upgrading beginner weapons to level 10 unlocks new attacks across all the categories permanently
>>750692282>applies to all [x weapons]FUCK I didn't know since you get the jagged steel so early that there's no point in using anything elseI guess that's why they give you so much lv1-10 materials
