Shogun Gamer: "Code of Princess tries very hard to recapture the spirit and charm of its spiritual predecessor, Guardian Heroes, but ultimately fails to provide the same fast-paced, tight experience that it tries to emulate. There are rumblings of a greater game underneath the sluggish, frustrating combat that Code of Princess provides, but these never quite resonate, and remain buried under poor design choices."
Here are a few of my favorites that have slipped under a few radars over the last five years.
Nope. Code of Princess and Yoshi's New Island aren't really that great at all. They are below-average. I wanted to like Code of Princess but from framerate to voice acting and terrible characters I couldn't come to like it one bit other than the gameplay can be challenging at times. Design wise it well down but the flaws hold it back a lot.
Yoshi's New Island is just boring and average. While the visual are very good for the art it used but the overused music and super easy where you beat the game in 2-7 hours.
Gary Hartley Writes: Code of Princess is a silly game. But it’s smart about it, has the foresight and the self-awareness to poke fun at itself. This is hugely appreciated, as the tale being told is one of a ditzy princess who wears just enough armour to keep the game below an R rating. She bumbles her way through an unorganized quest with the aid of a sword bigger than she is. It's all difficult to take seriously. So, don’t. Nobody in the game does, and they’re all the happier for it.
Started it on 3DS, didn't go too further...eh, unfortunately I liked it less than what I hoped :(
Code of Princess is a modern take on old fashioned arcade action with some RPG elements thrown in for good measure.
I love it when people who don't understand a game review a game. The part where the reviewer describes "grind or quit" is an indication that he doesn't understand, or can't adapt to, the gameplay. I had to grind very little to progress. The reviewer is making poor stat point allocation decisions or is not playing well and is blaming the game for it.
CoP isn't flawless, but it certainly isn't a 4. Poor review.
game sucks.... played it, and almost chucked it out the window.. so slow and choppy.. really wanted to like this game and had high hopes for atlus...
