Seems like the port has terrible low mixing on the voices as well as dropped sounds.

That would make it the worst port next to the PC version as hearing the voices is integral to the experience.

The original and BC 360 is still the best. Bad performance, but everything else works.

Followed by the PS3 version. Worse performance, but the sound mix works.
Yeah, it's a shame that each new version just seems to get worse. Honestly, regardless of the technical problems, I'd still prefer the Xbox 360 original, as the changes in the narrative style made for the Director's Cut really ruin things for me. Also, while I can understand the gripes people had with the controls in the original, I honestly dislike the Director's Cut control scheme even more.

Yeah wow, I almost wish we got that teaser instead in the direct. That's way for the fans and I love it.

God I'm so fucking excited for this.

Switch only is disappointing, but Swery needs to pace himself. I guess going for every platform all at once was too much to ask. Hope it comes out well.

You know what? Fuck it I'm in--Matt and Liam's enthusiasm is infectious.

Not too sure about playing the original though--how jank would you guys say it is?

The port seems decent until you get to the open world/driving part. The framerate seems really bad when driving.

The one bummer about this otherwise greatest-ever announcement is that it's a different composer.

Still. STILL, goddamn... What a day.

Worth noting, though, that SWERY's co-writer Kenji Goda is also back, so it's the EXACT same writing team.

Shouldn't a mod add that the Trailer Said Switch only so folks know? Just so know one gets disappointed or they can at least know with out needing to find a trailer mid thread.

Ya'll wanting better performance are so damn misguided

I want the Switch port to be actively worse to continue the PS3 versions tradition

I want a broken unplayable game tgat still somehow works

i still

what the fuck

I recall playing the original Nier and Deadly Premonition 1 pretty close together and I would have NEVER thought either of those jank ass games that I dug a lot would have ever gotten a fucking followup. It's crazy.

Can someone school me on this?

With this amount of hype (especially as a Switch exclusive) this is sounding like a Bayonetta 2 sequel type situation.

Okay yeah the audio in my game completely cuts out from time to time, seemingly randomly. Loading a save didn't even work. It just cuts out at times and randomly comes back.

Pretty annoying but the game is absolutely amazing so far (in that it's terrible and hilarious).

Ive never played the original. What can i expect in terms of gameplay,story?
Story is basically Twin Peaks with japanese sensibilities.

Gameplay is a third person shooter/action game where you alternate between exploring a world filled with tasks and some collectibles and third person shooting against creepies. It's not the strongest game, but its charm and characters are so good.

It will definitely not be for everyone, but if you're willing to take a chance on an oddball game, it could win you over.
