Mighty No. 9 Has Turned into a Shameful Abomination

I'm convinced Inafune's terrible hairstyle should take some of the blame.

[Harkins1721]

It really hasn't.

[Doodleburger]

Well not yet, fully anyway. It hasn't released yet.

Kickstarter is the worst.

Seriously people, donate to charity if you want to give money away.

[RpgSama]

It's a gamble, but games like Divinity: Original Sin, Wasteland 2, Shadowrun Returns, Pillars of eternity, Broken Age, Massive Chalice, The Banner Saga, Broken Sword: The Serpent's Curse, Shovel Knight, FTL: Faster Than Light, Republique, Mercenary King, just of the top of my head beg to differ.

Backed Dreamfall Chapters and been very satisfied so don't generalize.

[UnHoly_One]

Not a single one of those games has a tiny bit of appeal to me, and I'm down about 800 bucks on failed Kickstarter projects, so I think I'll just go on disliking it. ;)

@unholyone: sounds like a personal problem. Massive Chalice is the only one I really liked from the list, but your totally ignoring the point and trying to generalize, and failing horribly at it.

[UnHoly_One]

I'm not really generalizing.

Look it up, last I checked something like 2/3 of game Kickstarters failed to deliver.

The ones that actually delivered on time can probably be counted on one hand.

I just think Kickstarter is a scam.

Sounds like a judgement problem. Good rule of thumb, back a company with experience. And not kickstarters fault the successful ones don't interest you.

Also unless you have a lot of extra fingers rpgsama named a bunch. So no you can't count them on one hand.

I'll assume that most people reading this article will think it's some bullshit from someone who invested a little too much and was a bit too hyped up. I thought so, at least.

But then I saw the demo. There is no way to describe it other than "bad". They literally haven't even tried. Jeez.

Makes you wonder if MS is working to get this game pushed back to sometime after ReCore releases. If Mighty No. 9 releases and garners a lot of negative press from gamers & critics, that could substantially hurt the buzz for ReCore w/ Inafune's name attached. I wonder what is happening here, I always assumed that Inafune would put out a quality title here, doubly so because he was passionate enough about the project to Kickstart it.

[zidane1341]

MS has nothing to do with the development of MN9.they arent publishing it.

[RedTriangle53]

zidane, Comcept does have something to do with both MN9 and ReCore, which microsoft also has something to do with. It would be bad business for MS for Comcept to lose credibility before the release of ReCore, therefore it's not a great surprise if they tried to force Comcept to hold the release of MN9 until ReCore made their main sales.

Especially since MN9 probably sucks because they spent all their time working on ReCore in the first place.

[-Gespenst-]

The concept art they initially showed should have been exactly what the final game looked like. This just looks like about a dozen platformers I've seen on Steam.

I will never donate to a dev. Its just a gamble really. Maybe down the road once a dev consistently makes good, so i guess i really shouldn't say never lol.

[R00bot]

If a dev consistently makes good then they should have the revenue to make their next game anyway.

[81BX]

I laughed... thats a good point.

[FAT MAN GO BOOM]

Lets wait till the game is released eh guys before we make a judgment if the game sucks or not...

I rather a delay for a game that will be solid then a release and the game be a disappointment...

To pass an opinion along as fact like this guy does in his article just questions me to ask why is he so bitter???
