Brütal Legend

Just got this for Christmas, and... it's on PS 3. I've not even started yet but I've heard about the 80% infinite loading screen bug. Does it make the main campaign unfinishable, or is there some kind of collection sidequest that'll let me play through?

I myself never had that problem (then again, it was borrowed...), but I finished the game, anyway. After the game you get a chance to finish all sidequests, so if you're worried I'd suggest keeping the sidequests on a low until the postgame.

Thanks dude(tte).

It's a good game, though I have to say that the first parts are way better than the later bits, because it was basically unfinished due to legal problems. You get to the third act and... there's no third act. It's just the finale.

This is beautiful...why do I feel like I'm playing Metalocolypse:The Game?

Thank you for searching before creating a topic.

I got this game. It's pretty cool so far, but I've honestly got better things to play, so I'm not gonna be finishing it any time soon.

Because you are.

Welcome to metalhead heaven, brother.

This game introduced to Manowar, I love this game, though I really wished this game wasn't just a glorified tutorial for the multiplayer. Yeah you finish Bladehenge and the game goes to overdrive until my screen turns to plaid.

Coming to PC at last!

Bet ya it sells more in the first day than the console version did in its' entire lifespan. XD

Okay, not really. But this game deserves all the love it can get. Wonder if it will have any extra features.

There'll be some multiplayer map packs bundled with the PC version for free with purchase. Those maps may or may not have been paid maps for the console versions.

Also, I'm totally looking forward to getting this game. Maybe people will actually set their expectations for the multiplayer accordingly and give it a fair chance.

Is the game good? I kinda want to preorder it...

It's not good. It's great.

And it'll even be patched on PC!

(Full story: the game had bugs, patches were produced by Double Fine Productions — the designers — but EA refused to send them out. Because CRAZY)

Well, it's out now.

I knew I'm in for a treat when I started a revolution to Rock of Ages. Although there's one thing that baffled me immediately after the first level which made me think it's a critical error before I realized that I have to press backspace or access the Map button on the menu to carry on. All in all, so far not bad for a PC port IMO.

As soon as I'm done with the singleplayer, I'll gladly face whatever troper's up for multiplayer.

I will buy this game when I have money. On console it was fantastic, even for a non-metal fan like me.

Bumping for dilemma.

I started playing the game a couple days ago (having bought it with Humble Bundle 9), and I'm loving the music, visuals, and writing. Problem is that I can't really get into the gameplay; it feels like in attempting to mix the genres Double Fine just wound up with a cruddy version of each gameplay style.

I just finished the first major RTS-style battle, and I'm wondering if I should just quit and watch the rest of the cutscenes on You Tube. Would this be missing out?

Were you able to fly? It gets better with flying. I got it with the HB too, I hated the first battle.

Is this game worth playing if you aren't a fan of metal?

If you like a fusion of open-world singleplayer and RTS elements and multiplayer, then you'd probably like BL.

Just make sure to get the Steam version. It's the only one that's had some game-breaking bugs patched out.

I don't consider myself a metal fan, but I really enjoyed the game. It's funny and fun to play for the most part.

Eh, I love the visuals. The gameplay is a bit annoying. Enemies mob you and there are limit ways to deal with the mob (low-damage quake attack, later the face melt). I'm just a bit short of the RTS part of things, I think, and it may be trying to nudge one that direction, to indicate that mobs are best met with armies. Still, it's a bit annoying.

I got the game for really cheap a while ago for the 360, but I haven't actually played it yet. Been meaning to for a long time, though.

I loved it on PS 3 but I never finished it; I only rented it at first but I know own the PC version of Brütal Legend but I can't play it until I get a better PC.

I'm kinda bummed the fanbase for this game is too small for a good shipping war; I've spent way too much time stockpiling ammo for my Eddie X Rima arsenal.
