good, good ... here's hoping it won't mysteriously disappear tomorrow along with the PC version announcement (like it did with NieR)

This looks pretty nice.

A big part of what made Nier:A so great for me was the Taro crazyness though -- this seems far more "traditional" setting-wise, at least from the designs in the video.

 

[Amzin]

I dig the style. I hope combat takes a less "combo-sponge" approach than DMC or even Bayonetta, the combat looks fun but I could never get far into the DMC games because of how long you had to sit just hitting each enemy.

 

[Sygmaelle]

I feel this so goddamn hard

Probs a 2021 game going by nothing else being shown till summer

 

[Alextended]

It looked very run of the mill to me, not nearly as exciting as Astral Chain or Granblue Fantasy: Relink (or NieR: Automata). We'll see if it doesn't get cancelled.

 

[texhnolyze]

Well yeah, that's a Platinum game alright.

 

[TubaZef]

Looks like Nier: Automata but more generic, dunno, they showed so little.

It's Platinum so I'm sure at least the combat will be fun.
