Super Lucky's Tale Highlights the Problems of 3D Platformers

If nothing else, the mini-resurgence of 3D platformers this year has reminded us how frustrating platforming in the third dimension can be.

of god, it's a horrible Conker rip off

SegaGamer2407d ago

No actually it isn't. This game and Conker are nothing alike.

Jaypi032407d ago

Conker is a squirrel, Lucky is a fox. I don't see why people really get too defensive about Conker, outside of Bad Fur Day he wasn't really in anything major of his own.

A mediocre gameboy color title, DKR, and his project spark game are probably all worth noting about his history or character.

choujij2407d ago

Character wise, he probably resembles Miles Prower the most. ;)

Super Lucky’s Tale Is Better On The Switch, But Also Worse

Following his debut in Oculus Rift launch game Lucky’s Tale, adorable fox hero Lucky gave traditional platforming action a try in Super Lucky’s Tale for the Xbox One and PC. New Super Lucky’s Tale for the Nintendo Switch is an enhanced version of Super Lucky’s Tale, with new and remixed levels, story cinematics, and a fully-rotatable 3D camera. It also adds frequent framerate drops and a ridiculous amount of loading.

"Better On The Switch" 🤔 This is such an overused hyperbole.

Positivelypositive 1628d ago

I personally didn't enjoy how quickly levels were locked behind collecting the coins from the past levels. Sure this feature has become a thing but honestly its a turn off. Mario did it and imo its one of the changes they made that was a bad choice. They got it really right in the first new super mario bros and even galaxy. Don't gate keep. Reward!

Celebrated? Lmao barely anybody paid attention when this game came out, but now that there’s a possibility this game is getting ported it’s suddenly a “celebrated” title

DaDrunkenJester1940d ago

While I agree it's not celebrated or even a top tier platformer. I did enjoy playing it with my daughter, it was simple enough for her to understand, but had slight difficulty spikes that allowed me to play and help her out. I'd like to see a sequel because it does have potential to be a great 3d platformer.

Why would someone downvote this? This comment section is crazy.

"Why would someone downvote this? This comment section is crazy."

Anonymous upvotes/downvotes are not comments. I have no idea why people like you are more interested with how people vote over what people say. That's whats really crazy.

foster4261940d ago

"People like you".

Fuck you, you fucking bitch. good job generalizing and putting me in a god damn motherfucking bubble you fucking BITCH

Razzer1940d ago (Edited 1940d ago )

People whining about votes is a common occurrence on n4g and yes, you obviously fit that characterization. The guy had only two downvotes at the time, but you couldn't help bitching about it. So yeah....you pretty much put yourself in that bubble all by yourself.

And I'm not generalizing anything. I called out people, like you, who bitch about votes. That is rather specific, not general at all. You, on the other hand, called the comment section "crazy". That was a generalization. Suggest you learn the difference and try not to refer to others as "crazy" before dropping a bunch of unnecessary F-bombs. lol

Lmao I thought the same thing, even reviews across the board gave it terrible scores, did the developers pay the writer to say this or what?

Neonridr1940d ago

64 isn't terrible. In fact it's one more than the Order 1886 scored. Just to put that into perspective.

-Foxtrot1940d ago

What’s the Order got to do with this or is that just an obvious dig at Sony you had to do

Razzer1940d ago

"64 isn't terrible. In fact it's one more than the Order 1886 scored."

Why are you comparing two "terrible" games as if that proves anything? Oh......cuz Sony?

Neonridr1939d ago

@Foxtrot - because it was widely known here that the Order wasn't that bad and all that stuff. Regardless of what the score indicated. Metacritic doesn't mean everything.

i mean it did pretty well for itself

Vits1940d ago

While Minecraft exists and demonstrates that Microsoft is interested in having some of its games on more platforms, so far no other game published by them has received such treatment. So having Super Lucky's Tale being ported is rather surprising.

Sciurus_vulgaris1940d ago

The Lucky’s Tale IP is not owned by Microsoft

Vits1940d ago

Yes, but they are still the publisher. And normally exclusivity is part of the deal with this sort of release and even more after all the promotion that Microsoft invested in this game.

Sm00thNinja1940d ago

Microsoft also published Rise of the Tomb Raider on their platform?

FullmetalRoyale1940d ago

Minecraft was on every platform before MS bought them. I’m not sure that it’s the best way to prove your point. I do agree that Microsoft wants to make money(as every company does. They seem to have the least pride about it, which can be a double edged sword.

EddieNX 1940d ago

Cool. It's not a Microsoft IP tho so calm down.

IamTylerDurden11940d ago

The game was panned by critics and didn't sell a lick on XB1. In fact, the VR, console, and PC version all received poor reviews. I never understood why this subpar platformer continued to be pushed. It was never Celebrated. This PC release with favourable feedback is a 59 Metacritic, yes, a 59.
