DOING IT RIGHT! AM I DOING IT RIGHT?
Pretty fun game. Shame the devs were so retarded at the start.

I still didn't finish it but I'm glad this game exist, I just hope the whole game isn't

>>713565036
what did they do?

>>713566419
be retarded im guessing

I wish more indie games were like this where it's just a good game and not a roguelike or pixelshit

>>713566419
They said "we are confident in our song selection, therefore we won't provide a way to include custom tracks in the game". Which sounds very retarded.

>>713566797
They should select some more fucking songs

>>713566797
I assume it can be modded anyway

>>713566926
Yes it can. Still took way longer for it to be possible than it should, at fucking launch

this is an insanely childish thing to get hung up on

>>713567225
Not really. It was a really dumb decision on their part, and saying that after a lot of players were begging for the option rubbed me the wrong way

I'm not here to argue with you over it, enjoy your tantrum.

Saying i think a dev decision is retarded is not a tantrum anon.

>Bunch of punks spray painting in public causes SWAT teams to hunt them down

>>713567129
This is the worst song in the game.

>>713566419
Made it annoying to change between bike/skateboard/blades and hid shit behind swapping. The mod made it playable.

>>713567129
Great taste. That and GET ENUF

Vibes are good but gameplay was obsoleted by Tony Hawk. Unironically would like a remake

>>713567551
Oh fuck me, thought this thread was about Jet Set Radio

>>713567551
My city's mayor spent over $12mil in 2 years covering up graffiti that was immediately replaced every time. The Man is kinda stupid and obsessed like that, I could believe the escalation

I played this, enjoyed it and 100%'ed it. Here's my shitty review
>The visuals aren't as good as JSRF and a lot of the zones feel samey
>The score system is better and feels like an actual game compared to JSRF
>The level design is weak and a lot of zones feel pretty average. If you fall down on the oil rig you're screwed and the mall is just a big open area, the skyscraper zone is a bad version of the JSRF zone but its functionally just a big hallway
>Many levels are segmented meaning its hard to link areas
>Skateboard, Bike and Rollerblades are basically identical except for a couple edgecases that exist just to rationalise having bikes
>Each zone is just get rep, do a couple challenges then a boss / score attack its repetative in the end
>The basketball challenge is mega bullshit
>The plot is above average and the dream zones are really cool, the first one in particular feels super fresh
That's it that's the review. It's like 7/10

>>713567694
What was the graffiti that needed to be covered?

>>713567930
Mostly along ugly concrete retaining walls that weren't part of buildings, like along the interstate and in hilly neighborhood. The artists clearly have a code of conduct as they don't tag occupied buildings or cover up murals and other private-property-owner-sanctioned art. Seems like a waste of money to me cuz none of those concrete masses look better when they're blank.

>>713567420
Song was so ass so glad I added a custom radio mod to skip that shit song. Worse song in the game and I loved Birthday Cake from JSRF.

>>713568263
Ha, I groove with it when it pops up in game but I don't seek it out just for listening like I do with much of the soundtrack

>>713568145
Maybe your city's mayor is obsessed with things looking "clean". Still kinda odd campaign to spend over $12mil in just two years.

>>713568331
It's all about appearances to get tourist and out of town real estate mogul money. Boomer visions of a "great city"

>>713567757
Were there really any differences with the bikes and skateboards? I don't even remember what the story was about and the bosses were forgettable. I still had fun though since since Sega forgot to make another JSR for 20 years

>>713569016
If you want to 100% the game, the bike, skateboard and rollerblades each have gimmicks that you need to use to get to some of the spots. iirc:
>You can spin on a firehydrant with the skateboard and it boost you in the air
>There's certain doors and they only open if you're using a bike
>You can brake glass on the floor by doing a skid with rollerblades
There's legit 3 places each in the whole game where you use these mechanics

I really liked this game, hoping for a sequel that irons out the flaws. This one felt more like a solid first pass rather than anything truly exemplary.

The devs are clearly very talented and passionate, so I don’t doubt the success from this release will let em make something better.

>>713568263
The devs failed to realize that future funk is better when it's by non-afrocentric artists. The game is fine, but the soundtrack, outside of a few tracks and whatever Naganuma spat out, was in poor taste.

>>713567835
This is the only song in the entire game I must skip every time. Christ it's so bad.

>>713569958
I just added JSR and Air gear OST into my game. I think the soundtrack is okay at times though. Songs like I wanna Kno and light switch are good that kept me from ignoring the orginal ost.

OPERATE! OPERATEOPERATEOPERATE OPERATE!

plap plap plap

>>713571309
huh what about the other girls?

Honestly I don't mind hair dun nails dun. The only song I wish wasn't on House Cats was the last one. The tone is so different from the other songs on the mixtape I get wiplash

>>713567552

>>713564793 (OP)
They nailed the aesthetics and levels, gameplay FEELS solid and mechanics do a good job of replicating JSR while adding some of their own stuff, story is okay I guess, and overall soundtrack does it's job of getting you into the groove.

Biggest problem I have is that the game just has so little depth mechanically. While they did a good job refining JSR they didn't really do much beyond that. It feels like a game that exclusively looked at JSR instead of looking at these games as a whole, Tony Hawk games completely blow this out of the water in terms of tricks, style, score, etc. I don't think it would've been that much more complicated to add more complex tricks and a more interesting scoring system but the lack of it makes it really boring.

Also they absolutely fucked up by not adding multiplayer innately. It's cool people can mod in MP so easily but it seems bizarre to not have it in the base game when it just makes so much sense.

>>713569673
Did they ever talk about doing a sequel? Plus JSR is coming back soon so I'm just happy we're finally getting more skate kino.

>>713567595
This is the song that made it actually feel like jet set. When ever I'd clear a stage and this started playing felt great. Of course its by Naganuma.

Skating is cool with kids again I think. When I was walking around my old college campus there were a bunch of teens doing tricks. Didn't see any faggy ass longboards anymore either. Same with skate parks they're always full when I go by.

>>713571121
Very based. JSR and JSRF had amazing soundtracks.

I don’t think they’ve ever mentioned a sequel, but given BRC’s success I wouldn’t doubt they’re considering it.

Bell is a cute..

The biggest letdown for me was that there was no Greek Chorus character like DJ Professor K. And that the Police Escalation wasn't accompanied by the chief increasingly losing their shit.

How do the Bomb Rush Cyberfunk character designs stack up to the Jet Set Radio character designs?

Ironically calling something someone wrote a tatrum makes it look like you're having a tantrum

>>713580309
I dunno, Rise and Shine are cute.

>>713579105
Red, Tryce, and Bel do an okay job as being the face of the crew, only other standout member is Vinyl. JSR and JSRF all have better designed characters like the main crew Beat, Gum, Corn, Yoyo. Also better rivals like Cube, Rapid 99, Poison Jam, Immortals, Zero Beat, and the Police.

>>713567225
I kinda agree, it's not like there wasn't going to be modding support for it. There's very few games out there where you can add custom music, even in this genre.

>>713567835
Not going to lie, it grew on me in the same way Birthday Cake grew on me.

>>713567225
>>713566797
Oh no it was a damn strong criticism. Half the game's tracks don't fit well. Like you're fighting a boss and it sounds like one of those youtube lo-fi study channels is playing in the background. And it took them several post release patches to make it so that the in game playlists didn't restart from the beginning constantly so you weren't listening to the same damn song over and over. Plus how heavily Naganuma was advertised and then he only had like two tracks in game.

>>713567757
I felt kinda similar. For me the music and aesthetics, though I like them, are a step down from JSR, but the gameplay and story are greatly improved. Granted, there's still issues with both, but the gameplay in JSR / F is worse than many remember, I feel.
I will say, I downloaded a mod day 1 to remove the cutscene for when your notoriety raises. It's baffling to me that it was left in with no possible skip.

>>713567225
I'm sure every GTA that has existed in PC has the option
Fuck the 360 had an api to just allowed games to play your music from the hard drive

>spray paint objective
>cutscene of police showing up
>spray paint next objective
>cutscene of police showing up
>repeat until max wanted level
>easier to play with the police constantly present and just ignore the mechanic than it is to hide in toilets and be forced to go through more cutscenes

These devs are retarded faggots. How was this allowed to get passed testing? How did none of them say man this really fucking sucks and we should fix that.
