Might pick up Life is Strange. Is it worth at the discounted $49.99 price?

dumahim918d ago

If you liked the first couple, maybe. It got good reviews, but I felt a little let down by it. I think a lot of it has to do with the feeling that there's not a whole lot of new places to explore in each episode as it's almost entirely in the small town section with a couple of different shops available later. The story was pretty good. Haven't played the DLC, Wavelengths yet. Unless you're dying for something to play, you can probably get it cheaper later.

B_Rian89918d ago

Yeah I think I'll wait for a better sale

Some people like it, I thought those games were terrible. Literally some of the worst writing I'd ever seen. It felt like it was written by a forty year old man who failed horribly to depict the perspective of a teenage girl. It feels like it was written for teenage girls, but honestly fails in that regard as well. If you liked the games, then you'll probably like this one. Personally, I just don't get it. It seems like they do everything they can do force these games into something resembling popularity, but I dunno, lol.

First one was pretty good, but too much on the nose with the LGBT angle (no issues with it at all, but for a game based on choice it kinda seemed you made the wrong one if you didn't choose to hook up with Chloe rather than Warren, for example), Chloe was mildly annoying and the "save Chloe" ending is atrociously bad, Jesus.

Second one was a borefest. The spin-off with Chloe is equally tedious, albeit Rachel is a nice character and kinda of makes up for it.

This one seems decent, but it looks like it did not manage to grasp what made the first one so great.

babadivad918d ago

Seems expensive. The first and prequel were only $20 or so. They were worth the money at that price. I don't see how much they could have changed the formula to charge $50 for this one.

This is a bit of a tangent but the soundtrack for the first game is fucking phenomenal. I legit still listen to it to this day.

Where the Heck is Ni No Kuni 3, Mun?

Matt from We Game Daily writes: "Cross Worlds isn’t going away. It’s making a small fortune, particularly in Asian markets, so there’s no reason for Level-5 to pull the plug. That said, there’s no real reason why a full PC/console sequel can’t be developed alongside efforts to support Cross Worlds."

While Ni no Kuni 3 would be cool, if it was like the first game, where is Dark Cloud 3 and Rogue Galaxy 2?

phoenixwing106d ago

I thought the dev recently went mobile and Japan only. They shut down their American offices. So don't expect anything for consoles

shinoff2183106d ago (Edited 106d ago )

I swear they just announced a few new games.

phoenixwing106d ago

I stand corrected then. Never heard about these games and also i just remember ni no kuni online being mobile only.

Michiel1989105d ago

they said a loooooong time ago that Level 5 was working on a new installment but there has been no news since afaik. I just hope that they take more inspiration from 1 than 2, especially when it comes to the story.

thorstein105d ago

Ni No Kuni Cross Worlds is the mobile game you're thinking of.

It looks amazing but I don't like to play mobile games.

Yeah the sequel was okay but had nothing on the first game, especially the battle system.

The story just didn't have that charm and even the twist at the end of the game wasn't really anything cool like Wrath of the White Witch.

Also the fact there was like ZERO mention of Oliver or his adventures in the game, no references, nothing was such weird. It's set a hundred or so years after but still, I'd have expected to seen some throw backs. I think we just got like a temple with his statue in it or something.

goldwyncq105d ago

If you want more Oliver, just watch the movie.

shinoff2183106d ago

Fking word. I've been hoping for this for quite some time.

melons105d ago

The premium games didn't sell amazingly, right?

shinoff2183105d ago

Not to sure. They should of though. They were pretty good. I like both.

Michiel1989105d ago

yeah, especially outside of japan. They should have released on pc at the same time as the ps3 version or a short time after.

Inverno105d ago

They should've worked with Ghibli to put out a proper movie. Should've also made a Pokemon-esque spin-off rather than make Yokai Watch. If they do make a third game they gotta work with Ghibli!
