We will NEVER get another Brutal Legend.

Well yea it's too much of a legal mess. Microsoft owns the ip but EA owns publishing rights etc so eh.

RIP king

fuck you for copyright claiming all my GTA live streams

>>716161176 (OP)
I can't believe that one guy from Brutal Legend died...

>>716161810
RIP Chicken Jockey...

do you guys think hes having a good time in hell right now?

>>716161176 (OP)
how much you want to bet he was on the epstein list?

>>716161626
the king of metal is dead long live the king

>>716162574
>how much you want to bet he was on the epstein list?
he wasnt on the list but sharon definitely was

>finding out another death from /v/
Fucking hell. Did /mu/ kill this one too?

I'm honestly surprised he lived this long

>when the game peaks too early

He's in hell for killing 17 cats.
Fuck him.

>>716162574
Can you faggots spend one minute not trying to persecute people for made up crimes.

>>716162816
Who did /mu/ kill?

With the (lame) way the game ended they should have just turned it into an Adult Swim show with 16 episodes

>Driving around in the car
>CAN YOU HEAR THE BANSHEE SCREAM?!!
Unmatched kino

>>716163026
Hell be fine

>>716162931
yeah thats the last time the game pretends to be an action adventure. from there on out, it's all RTS. Tim Schafer pulled a bait and switch on us

>>716163026

Ozzy didn't have to fly to a fucking island to shag prime poon

>>716161176 (OP)
Shit Ozzy died? I thought he was immortal. Who destroyed his phylactery?

>>716161176 (OP)
There's absolutely no market for it. Maybe we'll get a trap version with Lil Peep.

Ok but how would (You) fix Brutal Legend?

Soon all the talented people will be dead

>>716164498
Have her be endgame.

>>716162760
close

>>716164498
Make it an action adventure game all the way through. I'm sure some people would've liked a spiritual successor to Sacrifice but not as a bait and switch in a game about heavy metal.

>>716161176 (OP)
>Died not even a week and a half after his final concert
Fucking wild, RIP.

>>716162816
yeah >>>/mu/127129275

>>716165061
THOSE MOTHERFUCKERS DID IT AGAIN

>>716163239
If you want to subvert me then so be it, but the whole thing has this nefarious air of "HAHA YOU THOUGHT THIS WAS AN ACTION GAME, YOU FUCKING IDIOT" only to give you one of the worst RTS experiences a game can offer. And it's not like EA was chomping at the bit for its action game to be an RTS. When the suits are at your door wondering why your budget is blown and your mechanically finished game is taking longer than expected, I doubt they were jumping with joy that their guaranteed metalhead success was now a shitty RTS

>>716165030
Dude loved what he did

>>716165030
Hopefully his soul can rest easy knowing that he managed to accomplish one last tour. It could have been the thing that kept him going, too.

>>716164980
thought it listed john oates for a second kek

>>716165305
It probably wasn't even his last last tour. Ozzy and Slayer have been doing this "last tour" shit for the last 15 years.

Cunt wife literally worked him to death

>>716165376
Jeffie asked if he’d be down for it, but he said I Can’t Go for That (No Can Do)

>>716163396
Poetic, all things considered.

>>716164498
Get rid of the RTS, once it became that the game got repetitive and dull

>>716165776
Finishing the story and half the cutscenes would be nice too

>>716161176 (OP)
MY EYES ARE BLIND BUT I CAN SEEEE

Oh fuck no boomers are dying out, i don't want to live with gen Xtrannies and zoomretards

>>716164498
Add some Blind Guardian songs

>>716166189
Boomers dying out might be the best thing that ever happens to us, thoughbeit.

>>716166483
>Year of the Spoony video game

if you know about the RTS bait and switch going in, can you still enjoy the game, or is the RTS part actual garbage?

>>716166825
Its playable, and thankfully poorly balanced enough that you can zerg through it lickety split, but it's still fucking awful and like half to 2/3rds of the game

>>716166603
What?

After what they did to Psyconauts would you really want one

>>716165140
Anon, you have it backwards.
They were always making an RTS game. That's the heart and soul of the game. It was EA execs that told them you can't sell a fucking RTS game and they'll have to tack on some hero-only gameplay bits to use in marketing.
Read up on the game's development before spouting shit.

>>716168071
And EA was right, the RTS shit fucking sucked. Imagine playtesting that shit, no fucking wonder EA made them tack on Better action combat

>>716168207
>Promoting mainstream cookie-cutter bullshit instead of imperfect soul and passion.

Get the fuck out, anon.

>>716168441
>imperfect
Powerslave is imperfect, brutal legends RTS segments are fucking terrible like the book of souls

>>716161176 (OP)
Not with Double Fine thats for sure

Wasn't this shit supposed to be the beginning of a series? Does this game even have an ending?

>>716161176 (OP)
I will never understand this goy worshipper mindset when it comes to the death of famous people.
Like did they expect them not to die? Especially when they are old and drug addled as fuck?
It just baffles me.
Literally everyone dies, but because certain ones did *thing* we must mourn and worship and act like the most groundbreaking thing just happened.

>>716168441
Guilty Gear 2 flopping is why ASW and especially Daisuke are the way they are now

>>716161810
RIP Lemmy
Oh wait, not that one?

>>716169102
It was supposed to be a classic point and click game, but when the kickstarter got way more money than Tim was expecting he figured well let's do a larger one. He then wanted a game that was purely done in the art style of one of his colleagues, Nathan Stapely. The project was mismanaged, and it turns out one artist cannot do all the art for a high quality point and click game in one year. Time and money were running out and their finance guy pitched the idea of splitting the game in two, to use sales of part 1 to finish part 2. Eventually the game was finally forced out.

>>716166189
>Boomers and X die
Have fun with talentless generations!

>>716169734
So there was going to be a part 2, but Tim once again sucks at his job and it was canned, am I following right?

>>716166825
The RTS parts are definitely "Who the fuck thought this was a good idea?" tier, but everything around is is fun, especially if you're a metalhead.

>>716169594
Blazeblue did just fine. They're simply getting old.

>>716169767
>it's the boomers fault that i'm a piece of shit with 0 skills

just kill me, this is not the world i envisioned.

>>716169832
No, the game barely came out as it is. Part two is just the second half of the game. It was branded part 1 and part 2 so people didn't go apeshit of having to pay twice for one game. They didn't have the time or money to release it as a complete game, so they marketed it as two parts.
Broken Age part 1 - OOT Young Link
Broken Age part 2 - OOT Adult Link

>>716169832
No, they released half the game and eventually delivered the second half later.
It's funny; I played through both parts but I can't remember for the life of me anything that happened in that game.

>>716169893
Read, nigga, read.

>>716170174
All I remember is Jack Black being a big fat chill guy who might have been naked

Everythign about this game is soulless trash only a poser could come up with

>world supposed to be a living breathing metal cover, yet its empty and nothing to do in it
>Black is a walking cringy cliche
>story can be summarized in 2 sentences
>cameos are completely underutalized
>everything "cool" is frontloaded into teh first hour of the game

This game is as "metal" as the last Metallica album.

>>716165140
The RTS part was fine. I liked it a lot. It's the fact that the second and third acts are so so short is what killed it.

>>716161176 (OP)
Fuck jannigger

>>716161176 (OP)
good as a metal fan the only good aspect of it was the soundtrack

RIP legend.

>>716167864
No, Double Fine sucks ass.

>>716164498
>>716164989
A hack and slash action adventure spiritual successor. No RTS shit. Something like Darksiders or Zelda mixed with PS2 era action, dungeons, several weapons. Keep the overworld and the car. More monsters and enemies. More variety in the soundtrack and world from different metal genres.

>>716166825
Yes, it's still enjoyable overall despite those parts.

>>716173343
Even then some of the tracks weren't ideal, there's a few picks that feel like they intentionally chose lesser known songs
A. Because it's obviously cheaper and
B. As some kind of humblebrag

>>716173436
i appreciate the soundtrack not just being a shitty guitar hero esque dadmetal compilation. For example, 3 Inches of Blood being on there ruled.

>>716173592
Yeah, it's not terrible, just weird shit like not one singular Iron Maiden track or just one Slayer track but 4 Judas priest tracks and 2 Tenacious D tracks(gee wonder why)

>>716173773
iirc they wanted Iron Maiden and Metallica but they just couldn't afford them.

>>716164498
Same as everyone else, more driving, more action, less RTS

>>716173983
That's a shame, Hallowed be thy name and that one about Icarus are great

>>716164498
Make it in structure, effectively brutal banjo and kazooie

>>716173773
in my mind i pictured it as "jack black decided the soundtrack because he is the mc" which is why it has these obscure bands

no idea if that was actually remotely the case probably just headcanon

>>716173983
I think it actually had something to do with the main character being named "Eddie"

>>716174494
I'm not the biggest iron maiden fan, I think most of their music is very samey, but I still can't fathom not having at least one track from them in your love letter to metalheads game. I also think glamrock and power metal needed more representation as much as certain sects love to hate them

As far as the soundtrack goes, for me it's

The Sacrifice clone bit was fine, you're just dragging 15 year old seething on.

>>716162574
theyre all kiddy fuckers in hollywood. even if he isnt on the list.

>>716174646
Incredibly based

>>716164498
By not allowing EA to cut HALF OF THE FUCKING GAME during the production. Also by telling Tim to fuck himself when he told all of his team to change the final story arc at the last second and cut out the Lita romance with Eddie just because he didn't like her character

>>716161176 (OP)
is this a justifiable use of AI voice acting?

>>716185405
even if you expressly sign off on it before your death like james earl jones did, people will still whine about it.

>>716185405
will ai voices get a specific copyright
do families get to own their dead relative's voice
how long until a person's voice goes into the public domain
