I think we could use another single player character action game/ hack and slash video game in the current space. Besides Bayonetta and Nier Automata, what else is there? GoW changed, DmC/DMC is in limbo, Ninja Gaiden is dead, Darksiders is coming but that latest footage looked pretty bad.

Not sure how Let it Die did commercially or critically. All I can say is that ship has sailed and the concept of Lily Bergamo always looked far more interesting to me.


Pipe dream?

Oh god yes. Another Lily Bergamo hopeful. I felt like I was alone in really wanting this game ;_;. I bought my original PS4 because I wanted this game so bad, but yeah...

And yeah. Let It Die is Lily Bergamo now, so lol.

Lily Bergamo was a 30-second pre-vis from before they had completely figured out what they wanted to do with their next game, but people keep talking about it like it was a finished title that evil execs maliciously shelved. Your mental image of this game is 100x more elaborate than anything it ever was.

Was Lily Bergamo ever actually a thing or was it vaporware shown at the PS4 reveal to show how many games were coming?

Maybe if they turned out to be Let it Die, it's because there's a reason for it. Usually because an idea falls flat and so it changes.

Fuck that. Her character design is way too boring for me.

I want Grasshopper to make No More Heroes 3 and a new game in the Kill the Past universe.

Don't lose hope-- Lily Bergamo and Stella will surely be the main characters in Agni's Philosophy.

but for real, Let It Die will fund the next century of grasshopper releases, more than one cute angry anime girl ever could've hoped to accomplish. Anime lost.

Never heard of Lily Bergamo in my life until now. And what a rollercoaster this thread was for me.

  1. DAMN THAT LOOKED GOOD. How did I never hear about this? What a neat looking trailer, helps the character is a qt
  2. Is this some free to play game I've never heard of? Is it a souls-like with a qt grill who punches big bad guys?
  3. Oh, it's cancelled?
  4. Oh. It WAS Let It Die.
  5. oh.

it'd probably flop just like let it die would

probably flop even worse because robots have been done

Its been 4 years. Let it die.

also they still do community streams often and let it die just had a killer 7 promotion launch so clearly it is doing well enough for them to keep running it

Okay. Can someone link me to this Lily Bergamo gameplay footage that everyone seems to gush over? Everyone talks about how we "NEED" this game and how great the action looked, but I can't remember seeing how it actually played.

Isn’t let it die successful

It’s easier to get excited about things you have no idea about apparently

Anime female with exposed thighs means it would get a lot of free viral marketing though. The 2B effect. Might have lasted a bit longer.

Let It Die succeeded actually and is still supported with new content today. It just passed 4 million downloads.

it's also getting a spin-off where you date Uncle Death:
