I’m not worried about how it looks visually, I’m just cautious about the mechanics.

The fighting has OHK if I’m not mistaken. The 1v1 duels when going for that slash look sick as fuck too. Stances are there. I’m not going to day one this like I originally wanted, but when I get to it, I don’t think I’ll be disappointed.
I believe it still gas limb damage, which I’m guessing ties into the OHK.
This will be my first Sucker Punch game.
Nah if you look at the recent videos from that blog post it’s not ohko, things have a certain amount of life, yourself included. They even demonstrate some healing ability.

I was more talking about overall news, I’m pretty sure I read they are there. Some of the videos had them but those were under specific conditions.
EDIT: Looks like limb damage isn’t a separate mechanic, as I though it would/somewhat-would-be .
From the article @Kurokun posted
Can you chop people’s heads off or cut them in half?
Nate: Players won’t be able to target specific body parts, Jin’s goal is just to dispatch his enemies as quickly as possible with whatever means available. Our motto for Ghost’s combat is “Mud, Blood and Steel”; it’s gritty, visceral, and above all lethal. It doesn’t take many slashes with katana to kill an enemy, just like it doesn’t take many hits from a Mongol’s sword to kill Jin. It’s a challenging environment to stay alive in — use every weapon you have.
Yeah exactly. Not OHKO, just high damage. You see Jin do a combo vs an enemy in those videos. In the blog post I linked.
Edit: but yeah those counter attacks or whatever probably do high damage or maybe just kill weaker enemies or something, yeah

Actually thinking about it again it’s sort of giving me Onimusha vibes, especially if counters/post parry counters are super high damage.

Here is the real question -
Dub vs. sub?
When I eventually get the game…I’ll probably do english dub first then japanese dub a second run.
I’m sure at some point sucker punch will add new game plus…

From early impressions the general consensus is neither are great for their own reasons Lol.
English VA’ing is called flat/boring/uninspired
Japanese VA’ing said while good the tone of the dialog rarely matches the tone what’s happening in the game. What makes it even more jarring is the body language of the characters doesn’t seem the match the tone of the dialog either
They didn’t even bother to lip sync for the Japanese voices. That kind of thing grinds my gears.

Yes. Absolutely. Hopefully they patch that shit. I don’t need Godzilla level dubbing in a AAA exclusive
