Code Vein, The No Affinity thread edition

[Hecatom]

The dislike ratio on that video plus the comments are interesting.

Seems like some people don’t like that it’s a blatant Souls Like and wish they would do something more original. Others feel that the character designs are out of place, they feel they can’t understand who the game is supposed to be for. Which frankly, I don’t understand. There’s plenty of edgy anime with character designs like this, but oh well

Filthy gaijins i tell you.

there is never enough anime, and **there’s no edgy anime with a formula like this. **

overall the soulsborne fanbase should not be ungrateful. soulsborne is a young genre, and Code Vein is extremely refreshing from all the Street Fighter, Tomb Raider, and Dragon Quest clones out there.

would Code Vein be more accepted as a Monster Hunter? depends, but overall this is Soulsborne done right, unlike that worthless Nioh game, Code Vein is made for more kinds of people and better creativity and taste in design. plus vampiric role with character creation is very rare.

YOU ARE LITERALLY WRONG. JUST LOOK AT TOKYO GHOUL, HOLY FUCK.

YOU ARE THE WORST.

?

I’m talking about the Japanese commenters on that video. Japanese gamers are saying those things.

[Tebbo]

hearing someone say ‘soulsborne’ made me gag.

game seems fine.
they saw the international success of the souls series and want to replicate it with their own take on that style.
doing something which has been done before is fine.
obviously the look is divisive. rather that than undefined and bland.

I love Dark Souls but it’s not its own genre.

Affinity is not real.

considering you have an anime avatar i respect your anime knowledge and therefore take this sentence as factual and insightful

^ See children…this is your brain on Affinity.

A quick look into the mind of a person contaminated by toxic unwashed bread eating opinions shows a dire process indeed.

As you can see the outer layers of the brain have already begun to show signs of corruption. If the corruption spreads further down into the Circle of Willis it can pass unabated and circulate through out the entire body, causing a slow and painful decent into fuccboiary.

Not many people here had a Commodore 64, Amiga, Amstrad CPC, ZX Spectrum, Atari ST, BBC Micro, MSX, Acorn Electron or even a MS Dos Machine int eh Mid 80s.

[crotchpuncha]

We had a Commodore 64 and a MS Dos Machine when I was a kid.

Hey I don’t except many people here to know what a Commodore 64 even is. And here you are, grew up with one.
:tup:

I played Barbarian1 back in the day, i never knew there was a second game

I told you man, you aren’t that much older then me.

Wasn’t as good as the first one anyways. It’s a lot like Fist 2 on C64 or MK: Chronicles Sub Zero or Batman Forever, in that they took a popular fighting game at the time and made a “The-fuck-am-I-supposed-to-go?” adventure game out of it. Shit doesn’t mix too well in any of those games.

[crotchpuncha]

MK: Shaolin Monks was the shit tho.

[ArtVandelay]

MK: Shaolin Monks was the shit tho.

Yeah that game is hella good. But that game also had an game engine that didn’t have shit to do with the fighting game as far as I know.
Didn’t play any of the 3d MKs though aside from MK4 because they all sucked, so not that sure about that.

In Fist 2 they took the mechanics of International Karate, in Barbarian 2 they took B1’s mechanics and Sub Zero and Batman was basically MK3 made into an action adventure and they all sucked ass.

If I am not mistaken the aerial Kombat in that game was then applied to Armageddon. Or Vice Versa, I can’t even be bothered to look when Armageddon was released let alone buy the game with actual currency and then boot it up.

[Bomberman3000]

Huh, didn’t know MK Shaolin Monks had air combos.
MK Armageddon, however, it was one of the selling points (and came after SM), so there’s that.
