I mean, the game is done. But Nintendo just has to sit on it for another month and a half.
The aesthetic of this and Daemon x Machina are gorgeous. Hopefully you can turn that "Iris On/Off" sound though. "Enemy Approaching" in Left Alive became extremely annoying after 5 minutes.
We don't know. PG titles tend to be on the shorter side (Minus Kamiya games), so probs 7-8 hrs.
This game looks awesome. It actually looks kind of perfect - the only unknown for me is how it actually feels to play the combat.
I sure hope so. I find those sound bites rather annoying. Also looks like the gameplay might be rinse and repeat? It's hard to tell, but I'm hoping for lots more play variety. That being said, it looks beautiful.
Gameplay seems top notch.
Only negative I see about this game is that the environments they shown so far seem repetitive. Everything else seems A-OK.

Good, i thought it would be a 40h game and it would be too long
They showed this part during treehouse.
Looks really nice and the combat section near the end looks pretty smooth.
Not sure why this footage wastes a few minutes doing nothing by the alleyway, tho. :lol

OP
OP
How can people say the game is boring from a 5 minutes preview played by a very newbie player?
The Treehouse gameplay was amazing, watch that.

Vid in the op is honestly pretty dull but I've been following this game closely and it's a day 1 purchase for sure. Just wish it were out sooner and not so close to September! I have like a week to play through this before Monster Hunter Iceborne!
Iris started.
Iris shut down.
Iris star-Iris shut d-Iris started.
Iris shut down.
This is totally not going to be aggravating...
Apart from that the game is looking good. One (minor) pet peeve that I have is games where the character runs around with their weapon drawn in inhabited areas. Surely there could be a sheathe button, or the weapon could be stowed automatically when there are no enemies around.
I'm curious as to the game's length and the amount of sode quests. It like that the city seems like a hub where you can move around freely and take on assignments. Action games like this are often very linear.

Specifically this video with Takahisa Taura playing. It seems like all the other gameplay out there is captured by people who don't really know what they're doing; seeing the game's director playing it makes it look like an entirely different game:
This is already installed on my Switch, I love how this and Daemon x Machina look. The Switch is easily becoming my favorite Nintendo console ever with everything that's releasing on it so far.
For the police point .
I guess treehouse people explain/try the move set.
All RPG type games look boring, especially in the beginning hours. They usually don't start looking cool until mid-game.
Iris shutdown? More like Iris shut up amirite?
Gameplay looks awesome, can't wait for August 30th!

good times when they sent out bayo 2 review codes 3 full months before it came out.
Yes, even with 1080p60 selected on YouTube it's still 30fps.
This looks awesome. Obviously I wish it was also coming to any other platform at all because I'm desperate to play this at 4k60. But I'll be getting it day one regardless because it's totally my jam.
Nintendo is the only publisher I can think of that has the freedom to patiently sit on already-completed games. Good for them.
i wish we would know when certain games are done. I remember that the rumour was that Odyssey has been done for months and iirc the producer even said that it would've been ready for march if needed.
But at what cost? This is their first 30FPS game in almost a decade.
To be fair, most of their games has had framerates all over the place. If this game holds a steady 30FPS it's fine, much better than what was going on in Bayo 1-2, Nier Automata etc when they first released for instance. Targeting 60fps when your'e not close to holding it is in my book much worse than solid 30.
I would love to play this at 60FPS though, would be sick. Still looks great I'd say though.
The cost was pushing visuals and resolution while targeting a solid 30fps over lower visuals, resolutions and an unlocked framerate that would probably jump between 35-50fps whenever anything of note happened on screen.
Personally I prefer a locked framerate over framerates that jump around as frequently as past Platinum games. I can't think of a single Platinum game that was a locked 60fps on consoles.
