i like gun

for me, it's sword.

i like this game

>>715366001

It's a fantastic game. My favorite, in fact.

>>715364636
For me, it's claws. The faster the attack, the better the weapon IMO.

What was his name again?

>>715366628
he'll probably do a dev commentary about his game soon. I also don't really care about new videos all the time. I generally just go living my life and seeing a new video pop up is like a nice treat for just sticking around somewhat.

I didn't know this could happen

They should've released the DLC for the Wii-U version. I don't want to buy another copy just to play the DLC.

>>715367956
>doesn't run at 1080/60 in handheld mode or all the time docked
The Wii U version literally runs better. I'd say the definitive experience is Wii U emulated but with an actual wii u gameplay bluetoothed up and hooked into the emulator.

I still haven't touched after school hero. I might never do so.

iwtch or PC version?
is it a good "bed" game?

>>715368169
Pc
probably not if you care about playing well, otherwise i guess, i do think it's comfy regardless

>>715364083 (OP)
This game was really cool though I never bothered to really learn it probably in my 1 off playthrough. Kinda fustrateing but, the ending made it all worth it.

>>715368169
It's still an action game despite what the artstyle says, it's something that requires pretty heavy focus.

>>715368286
The main game is the tutorial.
You actually get gud playing on Hard. 101% is a blast.

I still wonder how it could have flopped so badly, even ignoring the wii u sealing its fate.
My guess is that the tilt-shift perspective made it look like some sort of baby RTS which causes general audiences to gag

>>715368626
I believe it

>>715368732
Because actual action games are niche. Devil may cry is the only one that really broke into mainstream. Bayonetta took years before it started getting real recognition too, and most of it was only after 2 was announced as a wii u exclusive.

>No pink posting
Good she was a cunt

>>715364416
You should try the PC version. Its pretty great, the performance is as it should be. I think you jsut picked the wrong version. PC version of Remastered seems to be the definitive version of the title.

I admit I wanted a way more comprehensive Prince Vorkken mode though, with his own expansion and challenges, stories etc.

>>715368732
It's the kind of game you need to watch a 1 hour youtube tutorial to understand its gameplay, I love it but most casualfags are not gonna gel with it

>>715368127
I actually liked it a lot more than I thought I would. If you play it on PC use keyboard and mouse controls, mouse aiming works great in that game.

>>715369042
Pink is fine when Vorkken isn't in the picture. Unfortunately for us, most of the time Vorkken is in the picture.

Okay anon, for a first playthrough should you give a shit about trying to find the secrets or get good ranks? Or just fuck around and then do all that later? I'm the kind of autist who always feels annoyed at the end of a level when I didn't find all the extras or collectibles, but ranks alone aren't a major issue for me unless they're connected to XP/progression somehow.

Any tips for playing overall , which combos to use, which abilities to get first etc? Some say that you need to get the one that allows multiple unite morphs independently, but there has to be a certain way they work together without undermining your 'main' attack because half your team is doing something else?

>>715369592
you dont have your entire kit on a first playthrough so I dont think you should feel too bad when the rankings arent amazing

>>715369592
Backtracking as often as they allow is how you find secrets but no just play it carelessly and enjoy the ride. Come back for secrets later if you get addicted.

A w101 with all the fluff cut out would be so amazing, as it is I haven't replayed it in years

>>715369592
Shooting for good ranks doesn't hurt as you get more money that way. Like 99% of getting a good rank in this game just comes down to not eating shit in combat, but that really requires you to get familiar with enemy attacks, so you shouldn't expect to get a lot of platinums until you start replaying the game with some experience.

Collectibles aren't a big deal except for new wonderful ones and heart pieces, you should really try to get them all since they're the only collectibles that directly affect gameplay.

>>715367636

>>715369592
>Any tips for playing overall , which combos to use, which abilities to get first etc?
block enemies with guts to stun them
Use hand as your main damage dealer
Sword is good for AOE
Gun seems like garbage at first but stinger and cyclone are insanely powerful when you unlock them
Using claw on stunned enemies is basically the best way to get combo points in the entire game
I personally don't use multi unites a lot but once you get bomb you should always multi unite your bombs

Also save your space vegetables to craft credit cards to buy shit. Energy Converter, Speed Charge, and Ukemi are the best equips.

>>715369592

Unless you're using a guide or being absurdly meticulous about backtracking every time you have an opportunity to do so, you'll probably miss quite a bit on your first playthrough, and that's fine. As far as overall tips go, Gun Stinger is incredibly useful for stunning enemies so you can juggle them with Fist or Sword Rising, and you can use Gun Stinger before you even officially unlock it. Form a weapon that already has Stinger unlocked, likely Fist or Sword, draw the symbol for Gun, then do the back-forward input for Stinger and press A. You'll morph into Gun and do Gun Stinger immediately.

>>715369270
you understand the gameplay by fucking playing it. If you're actually willing to think about it you'll find stuff out. The only problem the game has is not unlocking default guts by default.

Will always be sad this flopped. A W102 game on switch that used fighting game inputs for weapon switches, and spinoff potential like a wonder blue game as a MGR spiritual successor would have been great. Unfortunate that besides their brief renaissance of success with Nier Automata this kind of began the spiral of Platinum titles either flopping hard or being mediocre slop

>>715370604
They changed some of that in the remaster anon.

>>715368169
PC so you can bind one button to turbo mash A for that one part with Red and Blue alone.

>>715370763
Did they put that on the basic moveset? If so it's perfect, now it's all about experimenting and seeing what works.

>>715370604

I would argue that the biggest issue with the game as a whole, even after the remaster, is that checkpoints are not always where they really should be. Compared to Bayonetta or MGR, it can be frustrating trying to go for a good ranking on a level only to have to replay multiple segments because the game doesn't checkpoint you before and after every ranked segment. Boss battles are especially egregious, since there are no checkpoints at all, even at the start of the operation, and that makes some of them, especially 005-C and 009-C, really aggravating. It should have, at minimum, a checkpoint for when you start a boss chapter, and considering how long they can go and how many phases you have to get through, they should probably add a couple more on top of that.

It was very jarring when I quit a normal level partway through it to try doing one of the boss chapters, making a mistake and hitting the Retry option in the menu, only for the game to drop me back in the middle of the level I had quit previously.

>>715370946

The remaster still doesn't start you with Guts and Spring, but after the tutorial it basically says 'hey dipshit, you should check out the shop for some really useful stuff' and Guts and Spring are there for like 100 Oparts each, so unless you're completely braindead you can figure it out.

>>715371370
Did anon finish this? I really like this

>>715371447

Boogie's done a few other Vijounnes, but I don't think he ever revisited these two specifically.

>>715371257
Yeah, that's fine. The game has some fucky things like that but i don't get it when someone says you need a 1 hour tutorial to understand how to play it. It isn't complicated, you just need the tools to be able to try stuff out and the desire to play along. Saying that you need prep work to play it just makes people think "oh it's a complicated game, i'll just stick with MGR/DMC/whatever", when it really isn't.

>>715372087
It's just saur spergs who thi k the game isn't fun if you can't run a solid juggle.

>>715372087

It's basically just Bayonetta if it used Okami's drawing to switch weapons with a dash of Pikmin sprinkled in. It's really not rocket science, even if it seems imposing at the start.

Any improvements performance-wise when running this on Switch 2?

>>715364416

>>715374825

One of the few game OSTs I went out of my way to digitally buy. And then the Kickstarter had a physical version of the OST that I couldn't justify spending even more money on.

>>715368049
A lot of the QTEs have fun fails. There's even a secret in one of them.

>>715375589

Almost all of the QTEs have unique failure animations. Most of them are hysterical.

>>715364416
I playerd the WiiU and the Switch version, but on the Switch the magic was just gone.

My theory is that drawing the symbols on the WiiU gamepad actually added to the action, and drawing with the stick just do it for me.

>>715376539
I think it's less drawing and more groaning and having to toggle the 2nd screen on during gamepad sections and whenever you need to switch leaders.

More games need a dedicated abd hype "you've got the boss on the ropes" theme.

it's been a decade
we get it, you had buyer's remorse and latched onto anything that got drip fed onto the system
but W101 is just straight up a bad game
it's time to let go

>>715378789
Its hype and it's kino, and I play it every few years.

>>715378789

Sounds like something a villain would say.

>>715378789
the idea that someone that doesn't like w101 bothered to find/ has kept that image cracks me up
of course, this is bait, but still.

Wow a TW101 thread? I thought this game had faded from public consciousness.

Love it to bits.

>>715380092
I wouldn't put it past someone to try and bait people to get some discussion going.

YOU READY?

Why do people keep saying this has a dash of pikmin? Gameplay-wise there are no similarities.

Hideki Kamiya is the greatest game designer of all time.
Fight me.

>>715381000
You control 100 little people from a high distance view point.
That's it.
You don't exactly throw each individual character like in Pikmin, apart from using them as bullets with Gun.

Where is it?

>fail QTE
>see the results of your failure

>>715381000

Ideally, you have to keep your team intact to allow you to use your morphs optimally. If you get too close to a hazard and your team gets knocked out for a bit, you won't be able to do much until you recollect them or wait for them to revive on their own. It's small compared to the rest of the game, but there's a small amount of that sort of Pikmin-esque strategy to keep in mind, especially during certain segments.

one of the most HYPE endings ever.

This might be the last game that was made with any soul. And I don't think Kamiya will be able to top it even with Okami 2.

>>715384790
>And I don't think Kamiya will be able to top it even with Okami 2.
Wonderful 101 is the most "Platinum" Platinum game there is. They're known for being extremely over-the-top and insane, and W101 just takes all of that and turns it up to 11.

The first playthrough is fantastic but the more you play the worse the game gets
Kamiya needs a tard wrangler to make him remove the shitty minigames or at least make him spend the time needed on them so they aren't cancer

DIPLOMACY HAS FAILED

I've been doing my almost yearly MGR playthrough lately, I wonder if I should replay W101 after it or go for something more slow paced like an RPG or something

Whatever happened with that other Super Hero platinum game?

I love kamiya but the fact I have to use a fucking guide to find all the collectables just so I have my full stats and shit in an action game is really fucking annoying
most of this shit is literally impossible to find unless you play like a fucking QA tester which is the last thing I want to be doing in an action game about chibi super heroes

I still haven't gotten my Wonder Mask from the Kickstarter
I'm glad the game got ported outside of the Wii U though, absolutely love it, hope Kamiya does good with Okami 2 and Capcom doesn't breath down his neck too hard

>>715387963
Project GG? Kamiya was directing it, but AFAIK they haven't said anything about it in a few years.

>>715387963
probably either in the shitter or they'll try to piece together what they can now that kamiya's gone
i'd say it has a very small chance to reemerge seeing how they haven't shown a single piece of footage from the game yet. would be pretty fucking ballsy to release kamiya's intended threequal to his super hero series stuff without his involvement anymore though, unless he had already completed a bulk of the directing. it's a whole different beast compared to kojima being cut from konami after TPP was like 80% complete and footage had already been showcased for months and months

I have a whole bunch of extra game case sleeves from the kickstarter because they kept sending me fucked up ones
I don't know what to do with them now

>>715387963
Kamiya was making it and he quit Platinum so it's probably dead now.

>>715364083 (OP)
I've been "catching up" lately on a few different Platinum titles that I missed and just finished playing both Wonderful 101 and Astral Chain for the first time. I was VERY surprised to learn that most people prefer Astral Chain since I thought W101 was far superior. What an underrated gem it is, even with having to do the drawing motions on a control stick. Creative combat, charming characters, a surprisingly interesting story, and overall just a very FUN game. Whereas Astral definitely overstayed its welcome and I was bored by the 20th time I went to the same copy/pasted red cube world.

Favorite wonder?
Gotta be Red for me, I'm a simple man and he's just too based as a protag.

Did anyone actually play that luka DLC they made? Is it fun?

>>715391232
I really feel like red is the only one you can like for something other than appearance alone, really. All the ones on cutscenes except blue are very one note and blue himself is still not as cool as Red.
>>715391763
No because i fucking hate Luka and hope he trips into an active volcano.

>>715390940
The one problem I had was AC let you get the full extent of your ability early on while W101 felt like you finally got to experience the game on NG+

>>715391232
>try to play Wonderful101
>have to stop playing every 5 minutes when Wonder Pink shows up and I get another massive erection
I don't know how you bros make it through this game

I replayed recently this on Steam after beating it on Wii U when it came out. I CANNOT get Unite Glider to work with the stick controls. No idea what I'm doing wrong.
