This is probably true and to chain the kicks is sort of difficult, ideally you would be running away from an army so you have nice long stream of enemies you can bounce on repeatedly in a line but there is literally no reason to run from enemies in this game. The magics are not at all balanced. I get that some such as scythe are better for utility such as drawing enemies in and creating combo but damn does it leave a lot to be desired.
How long for platinum? The problem I have with musou games I always get them on launch and have intention of playing them but they always get pushed back. And by the time I wanna play them a newer version or a new musou game comes out so the cycle repeats. I think well this newest game probably has better mechanics and graphics so I play that a bit, goes on hold because of backlog or something and then another one comes along.and now I'm left with like 6 musou PS4 titles to play including this one and DW9, DQH2, SW4, one piece and a few others probably
Having skipped out on WO3 entirely, what's the endgame for that have that WO4 lacks?
While I was debating it went back up to thirty.
Entire game centers on a new mechanic to utilise one of only a few movesets based upon God weapon equipment. Enemies will stop taking damage when they glow till you use those. Made it so the whole games movesets got pushed aside imo just to push the focus on some new mechanic. Plus no base. Just bouncing portraits.
Ungh. Guess I'll wait for the update and see if they improve the game. Devs adding in new mechanics and then forcing players to use them is like my major pet peeve.
Attack on Titan 2 got a $40 upgrade DLC, so I'm hopeful they'll also have an upgrade path for WO4U. Jeanne d'Arc being back is a good sign that all of the cut characters will return. Still hoping everyone gets a deified form. Hell, just take the designs from Multi Raid if you have to. I just hate it when only a few characters get access to certain mechanics.
SW characters keep their rush attacks while the DW characters don't get their Musou 2s. That was already a huge discrepancy.
A scan going about.
Ultimately it is still a fanservice Musou filled with beloved characters accross multiple IPs. In this regard it is inferior to WO3U but that game went through many iterations of improvement as well. I do think this game is a little weak when compared to its prequel. I think the new mechanics are a little weak, modes a bit boring and story is not exciting at all. That said, I did have some fun with it and leveling up some of my preferred characters was still quite fun. I definitely got my "musou fix" out of it but I burned pretty quickly and had no interest in maxing all characters or anything like that. Hopefully the expansion adds compelling gameplay additions.
The other problem I have with these Musou games is they regress and actually get worse visually with each one. This runs at 30fps as opposed to WO3 which was 60fps. Same with the DW games they actually look worse than before.
