Brianna Knickerbocker is female Akira? Wasn't expecting that.
If a tree falls in the forest and nobody remembers it, who else will you have ice cream with?Gotta say, I'm getting pretty hyped up for this game now, given just how smooth the combat looks, and the variety of stuff to do beyond just that. While it may not quite reach DMC 5 levels in terms of action, it looks to be almost on par with PG's greats.
Your comparing apples and oranges, bub. People have warned you about this before.
Watch SymphogearI was super excited for this game because it looks like Bayonetta meets JoJo's Bizarre Adventure and a little bit of Metal Gear Rising.
After watching GameXplain's video, I'm still very excited, but now I'm gonna make sure to keep my expectations in check, because now it seems like it's gonna be a very, very different game from Bayonetta (you know, besides just the obvious differences like story and exploration).
Also, getting a rank for just having a conversation sounds absolutely crazy.
This is not the greatest signature in the world, no... this is just a tribute.Taura said that this game was a mix of Bayonetta and NieR: Automata. I am also seeing some Wonderful 101 influences as well with the Legions.

Somebody posted the first full hour uncut. Hope it doesn't spoil anything... (It ends at the tutorial section, so I guess not much.)

SoundCloudCompletely valid. Cats are great.
If a tree falls in the forest and nobody remembers it, who else will you have ice cream with?GameXplain got ahold of a game and did a Q&A. No spoilers.
The game is locked to 30fps, but frame drops are nonexistent and resolution dips are minimal. (Resolution dips only seem to exist for handheld mode.) The lesser framerate doesn't harm the experience since combat isn't super reliant on reflexes.
They sang praises for the story, soundtrack, gameplay, and dub (dual audio is still available tho).
- Story is very engaging and keeps you on your toes.
- Soundtrack is quite varied, but still expect some Platinum flare.
- The gameplay is way more accessible than other Platinum games (e.g. mission grading is very lenient) without compromising on Platinum's style. Also lots to do to prevent repetition.
- Script and acting sound good. Multiple fun characters who don't overstay their welcome.
Nothing much said about the overall difficulty, but multiple difficulty levels exist. I think. Watched this hours ago and too lazy to recheck.

Hey, it happens.
Mukokuseki is a bitch ain't it.
I've actually kept away from reading/watching too much about the game since I want to be surprised. I will say the transition from the Character Customization screen to the first cutscene is dope.
