Brutal Legend is coming out this week and I for one am really excited after playing the demo. It's made by Tim Schafer so I don't see how it could possibly be bad. So who else is excited (or dismayed) about this game's release? What are your thoughts on the glimpses we've been given so far? Will the multiplayer totally suck? Discuss.
I played the Demo, twice. I want to like it, I really want to like it. It's one of the only games to actually make me laugh out loud. But the combat, the combat ffs! It's so terrible =( It put me off it, so no, i won't be buying this game.
How is the combat terrible? Seems just fine to me.
Tell me, how does 8 hours (hopefully it lasts that long) of doing the same attacks over and over going to be fun? Plus there's the Prince of Persia style "throw the girl at the bad guys" attack, which isn't great.
15 hours of a GTA-esque Heavy Metal inspired open world, with over 50 varying missions within it. You get a Battle Axe, a Magic Flying V, and a Hot Rod, all customizable to make gameplay more interesting thanks to the Motorforge run by Ozzy Osbourne's character, and a few other legends of heavy metal play characters in the game as well; such as Rob Halford, Lita Ford, and Lemmy Kilmeister. The "Throw girl at shit thing" is only with Ophelia. Each friendly NPC/Animal in the single player has a unique Double Team attack Like forming a mosh pit with headbangers, or throwing a demon porcupine at the "Hairbangers" shall we say.
And the multiplayer/certain missions in single player have full on RTS-ish wars. while you only control Eddie's Faction, Ironheade, in single player, you have access to two other factions in multiplayer. Drowning Doom, the Emo/Gothic faction that uses their music to make the other team weaker, and Tainted Coil, the S&M demons you fight in the single player. And all Factions have a dozen or so Troops/Solos to use strategically to take down your opponents stage with up to 4 teams versus 4 over Xbox live and PSN. This is just scratching the surface as well.
Do some bloody research about the game before criticizing it.
Someone give this man a medal.
All the reasons to purchase the game are right there folks.
*In an acceptance speech tone of voice.*Thank you, thank you, and thank you. Although I am 14 years old, and will only get this game for Christmas unless I get lucky, I can safely say I have pwned and teabagged kruxxor and his arguement like the high pitched noob he would picture me as. So it is with great honor that I accept this imaginary "Internet Medal of Win"
I'm gonna have to cut your dreams down right there. If that is all the game has then I wouldn't be getting to excited. Like he said same attacks over and over again unless you keep changing out the main secondary NPC. Your Jack Black character still has the same repetitive attacks. And first impressions from trailers should be what your first thought is going to be. He shouldn't have to research the game, the trailers and early-released gameplay vids should do that for you. I shouldn't have to research every game that I think looks bad. I have seen the gameplay and I have seen the multiplayer which has no appeal to me. And you need to shut your mouth when calling kids "noobs" because we can easily call you a "little kid fanboy". And plus he new about the throw the girl at the shit thing which you would kind of have to research to know. and he never said anything about the other NPC's double attacks so how do you know he doesn't know about them.
And on a medium-level unrelated note, What do people see in this game? It seems to be so highly anticipated when real games like CodMW2 and splinter cell 5 are out there. What is happening to the world.
Tim Schafer, an original game with a refreshing art style, and Heavy metal theme are factors. And trailers are supposed to make you interested in the game enough to find out more about it, play the demo, etc, and decide if it is worth the money. To me anyway, some people, not you, you're ok, just look at the first teaser two years before release and dcide right then and there you will hate it.
And to argue you points.
1. I said that was scratching the surface in my paragraphs, the game will have more to it than what I mentioned, that's just what Tim let us know about.
2. The upgrades you get make your attacks have special abilities and you unlock newer combos as the game progresses, to keep the combat somewhat fresh.
3. Or you just use the "Follow" command to easily bring some of your troops over for a Double Team attack.
4. The Main Character is just voiced by and partially inspired by Jack Black.
5. I all ready did the trailer thing.
6. Fair enough on the noob thing, I just had one of my "You suck because you aren't as informed about the game as I am from what i've seen" moments.
7. He said he saw his brother play the demo, so he could have easily seen the Double Teams from his brother. I how the fuck would I know about him knowing about other Double Teams unless he acknowledges them?
Bottom Line, we have different opinions on the subject. Multiplayer seems deep and entertaining to me, you don't seem to like the look of it. And to be fair, I was a Douche in my last post, kroxxer just seemed ignorant from his posts. Let's just stop arguing now before the mods get involved. I will get and (hopefully) enjoy the game, and you won't do either. I am done...also I fixed a few of your spelling mistakes.
