DmC was great.

No no it really wasn't

And the only reason it was kind of fine was itsuno fixed up their game because they couldn't figure out how to do it. So i'm interested what that game even was before instuno barged in and fixed it.

The only net gain that thing had on the series was having admittedly very colorful and interesting designed levels, and the idea that dante has interact with...a world a large. Instead of magical monster castles that somehow... magically exist in modern day. Other than that, nah not really. Even with the changes that the special edition made, its still is no where as good combat wise as regular DMC especially 4, who's SE I love because virgil motivation lets go!

DmC was okay from when I beat it from PS+. I wouldn't mind a second one after DMC5. Combat wasn't as good as 3 and 4 but it was passable. Never tried the Vergil dlc. It looked pretty fun. The levels and environments were pretty great. Devil May Cry 5 should take that away from DmC or make the games look like horror with good level design from DMC1. DMC4 dropped the ball on that front.

Ninja theory should focus on environments playing roles in their games, they are pretty good at that.

Going to watch it again soon but Bad lieutenant: Port call of New Orleans is a masterpiece. Movie has a style that's outta sight.

Man Season one Lex is a great friend.

Looking back on it the show is pretty dark.

Need to dig up some of those old Smallville fan sites.

More licensed music than I remembered.

The body count on this show is surprisingly high.

Kryptonite is straight up bullshit.

Hi Tony Todd.

Episode 9 has a moment that seems like it's about to drop into Irredeemable territory. That would've been amazing.

Merc_ said:
Agreed. Gameplay wise it doesn't really look any different from most of the Megaman franchise. It's just that people are still incredibly mad about the graphics and I wouldn't be surprised if some of them were still pissed about the stuff that happened with the community manager. The red ash kickstarter as well as the delays were just the icing on the cake. Now every thread about that game is doomed to be negative no matter what at this point. I can only imagine what the reviews will look like for the game.

Edit: Just saw the review thread. It's pretty much what I expected.

Pretty much. The game has issues but the well had been poisoned long before release. I just wish when people throw shade at the game they would stop using dumb arguments like calling the project a "scam/con" or saying "but but $4 million!" as if they have any clue how much shit costs to make.

Eh, whatevs. Not everything works out. I didn't give anything I couldn't afford to have fall in a ditch. That's how I approach all KS no matter how hype I am for them. Some people, even those who gave less than me, are taking shit personally though. Like "someone killed my dog" personal :p

The reviews are destroying it:

I mean damn. If you can't get the graphics right at LEAST make sure the Megaman clone gameplay is on point.

Reading the reviews, it feels that some people are slamming it for things intrinsic to every Mega Man game which is weird to me. There are a lot of legit criticisms in there too though. This really should have been a slam dunk though - how'd Inafune low ball it?

Zaverious said:
As far as I understand for much of Inafune's career at Capcom he was the lead artist for many of the classic Megaman games, and basically became the producer for the entire franchise since Megaman 8 and other Capcom games (Dead Rising, Lost Planet, Onimusha). He didn't really do gameplay design, maybe some concepts. He was probably the only one at Capcom that actually wanted Megaman games and the only one to get them made. I thought since Inti Creates was helping out Mighty No. 9. it might play well from a gameplay point, but uh... yeah.

Edit: Well he designed Soul Sacrifice, but that was pretty meh.

What a producer does exactly will vary from game to game and company to company but I feel people throw out the producer bit for Inafune in a means to discredit him. The man has been an integral part of the Mega Man franchise for decades and took a more hands on approach as time went on. Not everything he touched was gold, far from it, but he has experience - if there are things you liked about past Mega Man games he certainly wasn't solely responsible but you can't take him name of the projects either. I don't know if they bit off more than they can chew ($4 million for like 1343 platforms and a ton of features isn't actually all that much money), or messed up the priorities or mismanaged the money or what. Either way, MN9 failed (well I'm still going to play it to see for myself) not because Inafune didn't have the appropriate resume or had no idea what he was doing - he just messed up. That's a thing people do.

My post does sound like it's trying to discredit him, reading it again. Not really sure what the intention of it was. Just disappointed I guess. Sorry about that. Shame about the people that funded the project. This game could've led to my Not-Battle Network series, the best Mega Man series.

that is a fucking man putting all the fuel in the fire to will the game win into existence. looks like when they throw those special fuel cords into the train in back to the future 3. it looks like when you realize you can run at super speed and fly in a lucid dream.

Always glad to see people are still posting that Kamiya tweet about Inafune sans clarification. Either way it's like people forget it is a business.

I can't remember if Ultimate Spider-Man is actually good or I just liked it. Like i've read that first chunk of Ult. X-Men recently enough to know it's straight up trash.

Someone vandalized my mom's mower a little while back.. cut all the cords, including the starter cord, I guess after they discovered the mower was chained down.

And of course someone calls the yard in for not being mowed. Let people BREATHE goddamnit

Oh, and did anyone else catch any subtext from that conversation where Professor X thinks human/mutant relations are good and Mystique says "they still hate & fear mutants, they're just a little nicer about it."?
