Megaman.
There, that word and it’s recent baggage trumps any positive about Capcom in the past 10 years.
What are you talking about?!? What about this high quality GEM of art?

So much positivity coming fwom these enhangy wesouces!
I finally got and started Heavy Rain.
Have fun holding that salt.
What salt? Over not having shaken the controller fast enough? :S
I got stuck in Indigo Prophecy because I couldn’t beat a QTE no matter how many times I did it lol. I think it was a button mash one and I’m TERRIBLE at mashing buttons.
The salt from your tears when you cry.
Heavy Rain = Wario Ware for mature audiences
That is suprisingly accurate.
Oh right, almost forgot the tear inducing gigantic plothole…
With an interesting kind of short attention span that doesn’t mind doing slow, mundane tasks repeatedly as a core gameplay mechanic but don’t have the observation to notice a nonsensical narrative or absolutely ridiculous situations that blast most straight into uncanny valley.
I’m still at the start (just left that party as the private detective), so I have no clue how seemingly silly the story may get.
However, I’m not understanding how a situation sends a character into uncanny valley, but leaves them out of it when they aren’t in a situation on such a ridiculous-sens level. That’s not how uncanny valley works…
The most blatant nonsensical thing about the narrative thus far was that if two cops killed a guy who wasn’t actually armed they would have a load of **** to sort through legally and finding the kid would be left to another group of police.
Which I was capable of mostly ignoring on the basis that in our current world, the DEA can storm a house falsely given by an informer as a drug operation location, and kill and old lady who thought she was being robbed while simultaneously shooting a bunch of their own men in the process.
I kinda wanna get Heavy Rain, since I’m always big on story and the story is pretty open ended (unlike Asura’s Wrath which is just one ending so you can just youtube that shit). But I’d rather buy it cheap than spend more than 20 bucks at this point. In fact, how open ended is the story anyway? Can I just youtube that too?
Also, I want Ninja Gaiden 3. Everyone says it’s ass. I played the demo and it was fun (albeit a bit more gimmicky than the previous ones). So whats wrong with it (inb4whatsrightwithit)?
Uncanny Valley does refer specifically to Robotics/3D animation and the reaction to things that appear human but aren’t.
I believe the term Tomo is going for is Suspension of Disbelief.
As for the unrealism of two cops killing an unarmed dude (Which, by the way, you can elect not to) and the reprecussions they are obviously neglecting, that’s hollywood (also, that much more work in differentiating paths players take). Police work hasn’t been represented realistically by almost any form of media since its inception. You are going to find many more, many worse elements that are unique to Heavy Rain and its story, I promise.
Perhaps you might find this interesting, though it’s a little sensationalist.

That link led me to a blank page…
More like Light Showers with Bits of Clouds if you ask me
Really? My phone says it’s going to Heavy Hail later tonight.
took me a second, but yeah, i get it
You wouldn’t spend more than $20.
It’s exactly $19.99 new on Amazon right now. That’s why I bought it.
And it’s sad to hear that I will be likely to encounter stuff I find implausible. Oh well. It’s still been captivating so far. Quick time events in this game actually make you feel like you’re the one dodging cars/chasing people/whatever. I’ve never seen other quicktime events that manage to even affect a person’s mental states yet, usually the visuals alone create everything and the quicktime events may as well not be there. In Heavy Rain though somehow they are implemented into the action itself.
