I'm starting to forget that Platinum Games can actually still make good games.

isarai898d ago

Yeah, they really need to pull it together for a new banger. It's all been games at the hand of some publishers demand, licensed games, pulled in to work on games that aren't theirs, etc. Just want 1 new game from them that is wholly their idea and execution.

Gamehard898d ago

Astral Chain was pretty awesome.

What is it with SE and their obsession with this game , if it wasn't for the sex appeal and the internet degenerates this would have flopped and became forgotten like the rest of Yoko taro overrated trash , better invest on your abandoned IP's if you desperately want sex appeals on your games , just give Parasite Eve a chance SE

You are straight up HIGH, my dude... You clearly never played this game. There's barely any "sex appeal" in this aside from one or two easter eggs. Blowing yourself up, or angling the camera the right way. This is coming from someone that really dislikes when developers use sex appeal to sell games. It is first and foremost an existential experience. Brilliantly portraying how the psyche changes when faced with your own mortality. It is a masterclass in storytelling. I hate when people look at this on the surface and think it's just some sexual fan service game...

The thematically grim tone, the story, the music, the constantly changing gameplay systems and the dynamic camera angles are what sets this apart from any other game. It replaced Chrono Trigger as my favorite game of all time. I've been gaming since Bionic Command on NES. Which gives me a very broad knowledge of gaming through the decades. So, please... If you don't have ANY knowledge on the subject you're talking about. Just don't talk about it. Because you have no right to speak on a game you obviously haven't played.

Agreed snookies. Even the gaming since nest except I go back to atari

....so intelligence can drop to below 0. Bummer. You'll recover in time I hope.

This game is awesome. The only sex appeal is in your head. You have yourself to blame.

DarXyde897d ago

Everyone is welcome to an opinion. It is my opinion that this is contrarian nonsense.

It was a fun game with a beautiful OST and salient narrative.

shinoff2183897d ago

Nicer og was good. Gotta try replicant still. Idk about automata yet

I still need to play this! Plan on getting it for Switch.

Limitedtimestruggle897d ago (Edited 897d ago )

I recommend getting it on anything BUT the Switch if possible. The Switch version is a very cut-down port as usual.

Yui_Suzumiya897d ago (Edited 897d ago )

I prefer my Switch OLED for most games and all-ages visual novels. I have a PS3 and PS4 as well. Plan on getting The Callisto Protocol for my PS4. I also have a laptop but I only use it for eroge.

Naw, Demon Souls was really that game

vTuro2442d ago

Patiently waiting for the next Yokofuckery.

gold_drake41d ago

im not sure if they "saved" it, but Taro definitely shook things up with the story telling that hes so infamous for.

especially in times when free to play model was at its peak in gaming.

FinalFantasyFanatic41d ago

I never really felt that way, but I really enjoyed NieR: Automata, I made sure to get all the endings.

jznrpg41d ago

I’m not sure about that but it was good to have and hope we get more games from Yoko Taro that aren’t mobile
