Demo is out now. Thoughts?

>>723170902 (OP)
No thoughts, page empty

>>723170902 (OP)
shan't waste my time on a game thats already bloated to all hell for its demo

>>723170902 (OP)
Still downloading. Is it playable or are servers down? Don't see anyone talking about it.

Let me know if it has as wild of a soundtrack as the first game

Should I play the first game?
Heard it's p2w and grindy as fuck

wait what the fuck
this one is not f2p?

>>723171671
you can finish the main game (40 floors) in like a week at most, everything else is irrelevant postgame filler

>>723171751
No. It costs $25 because they didnt want to balance it around f2p monetization like the first game. This is a good thing. But then they fucked it up by making it an extraction pvp game. They are going after the Tarkov audience. I am still downloading it but my expectations are low.

>>723172128
I keep hearing that the PVP is minimal, like you'll encounter people occasionally and not always

downloading now

>>723172214
That's what the devs said, which implies they're building the game with the intention of a low population. While that's a good thing for the game's potential longevity, it creates the question of why would you even bother adding the PvP, minimal or otherwise, when you know it's going to alienate a lot of people?

>>723170902 (OP)
41 gigs for a demo? I'll tell you in a week when the download finishes.

I hate living in India with shitty internet.

But will it have a bunch of original songs for a new banger soundtrack?

About to boot it up now. If this thread still exists when I'm done, I'll post thoughts.

>>723171671
It was on release. The difficulty and grind have been toned down massively since then. Only difficulty now is in the post game content.

>>723172128
>extraction pvp game
hype eliminated
I just wanted a sequel that was the first game but more and better

The 15 minute time limit sucks.

>online only live service
Yeaaah, no thanks. Not a fan of throwing my money down the drain.

Fuck this download man.

let it die

where the fuck are the escape pods
3rd time i die because i couldnt find them

>>723176338
Explain
Have I been lied to about it being a rare thing?

Its been a long time since I played the first one, was the combat and movement always so sluggish?

>>723177114
You have to crouch to detect them, has a limited range but it's the yellow blip.
And yes, it's as shitty as it sounds.

>>723177814
I haven't played the demo myself yet, but it's probably rare in the context of low population plus spread out player progression. When you have a bunch of people playing the demo in the same area, it probably happens a lot.

>no dlss
are they retarded

>>723177814
In short, you're placed in a huge map with other players. You need to fill up a currency bar or you're not allowed to leave, but there's a minimum threshold. To leave, you have to find an escape pod, but only one player can use it. And you have a 15 minute time limit on top of that.

So basically it's a completely different game from let it die. I played for one hour, and honestly, I don't feel like playing it again

>that new Uncle Death voice
awful

>died, rebooted, and will probably die again
lol

>>723175757
sorry, was saving that post for the RTX threads. Continue

>>723179895
the first game worked well enough, the formula is already there
I genuinely have no fucking idea why they keep trying to change it rather than work upon it and improve it.

Its so strange. First game was pretty original. Now they are chasing trends and doing it badly. If this flops, the series is dead. All they had to do was a straight sequel.

I can already see how fucked up the death medal shit will be.
Your box lets you store 10 weight, so not even 1 armor piece. Now guess what you will be paying for lol.
What was so hard about releasing Let it Die as a buy to play game with new content?

As usual, japan is late to trends.

>>723182178
crouch

>>723171671
>Heard it's p2w and grindy as fuck
it is, but you should still play it, paying is for convenience mostly, and since it has no online pvp of any sort it doesn't really matter that people can pay for strength, it only helps their solo game.
It is grindy but that's the game, and as anons have said, it was toned down, and you only need to reach floor 40 to experience the whole thing, but it's oozing with style and is peak 2000s-core, so if you're into that you'll fall in love

Lost an upgraded body full of rare loot because the game dropped me into some sort of training area during a real match

We truly should "just let it die ™"

>>723170902 (OP)
it looks and run like absolute dogshit
which worries me if this is what they plan to sell

Uninstalled after playing the tutorial and dropping once. This game isn't for me.
I liked the horror/darker theme of the first game and the soundtrack was banging, nothing of the sort here, it's all a mishmash of "le whacky Japanese shit".

Reddit is calling it Deathverse 2. Its over.

I dont like the new aesthetics.

i cant climb

>>723185324
>>723185440
you have to unlock the body upgrade that lets you climb

>>723170902 (OP)
so far this feels like the worst game they have made. all the maps are just anonymous corridors, the combat feels garbage compared to deathverse, and they also cucked everything else about it like the movement and how the stamina works. Literally killing random Cryptids in Deathverse felt more tactical than this game.

Deathverse was unironically a really good pvp game, with probably the best melee pvp Combat but they killed it by forcing a mandatory 2 minute cut scene of players showing off their skins and emotes before every match.

also this game's voice acting is trash compared to let it die and deathverse

>>723184246
i have no idea what they were thinking not adding DLSS, without it unreal engine games are unplayable

God damn it's just not fun; and they want to charge money for this one?

>>723185835
>Deathverse
Agreed. It being a BR only was a terrible idea. It should have had the usual assortment of multiplayer modes. TDM, CTF, zone control shit... fuck it just steal everything from Anarchy Reigns.

im so tired of tutorials holy fuck shut the fuck up

>AA Jap dev makes a mess of a game chasing trends that ultimately leads to their death
Why does this always happen?

Sasuga

>>723186639
Isn't FSR(1-2) the one that's just a toggle, while DLSS and FSR3-4 need more training?
but this is really a raw demo, like the kind of shit you handle to your tester

>>723187246
everything except infinites pls

>>723187689
My thoughts exactly

>>723187246
>It being a BR only was a terrible idea
no, deathverse was pure and to the point. the only terrible idea was pretty much everything that happened outside of gameplay (except the amazing music) because no player wants to sit in queue for 2 minutes only to them be forced through another unskippable 2 minutes of preamble. and of course once those queue times started to go up to 5 minutes at times people had even less of s tolerance for said preamble

i think its time to let it die

>>723181728
disappointing, I kept parroting that because it's what I heard too, misleading..
I'm really disapointed it's just another extraction shooter, I really doubt they will, but I hope to god they heed the negative reaction, delay the game and turn it into another dungeon crawler, this is their last chance and they're fumbling it so bad, all they had to do was make let it die 2
>>723184449
Yeah the whole time I'm just thinking about how I liked the first one better.
The game in a game gimmick, the train subway was way cooler than this sky shit, the tower of barbs was cooler, hell gate could have been cool but the devs just haven't got the ability to realise the vision, the sky platform looks down on a boring ass empty environment, and the view from inside the Hellgate isn't that interesting either, they could have really made it look like that one piece of art, plus the story seems really weh, raiders association? Fucking lame.
Will there even be lore drops and cutscenes? Bosses? Is there a place to descend to? It sounds like we'll never actually be able to beat this one, giving the lack of polish and detail I wouldn't put it past them not to have.
The first game oozed style and intrigue, this one is shallow.
Uncle death is here as a formality, not because the devs have soul, as indicated by his voice actor change, they didn't get how important it was to his appeal.
Also I already miss the basic underwear they started you in the first game, I miss picking a body from the train, it was all so cool.

>>723188906
deathverse was doomed from release, being a BR in the BR saturated space is what killed it, even on release day it struggled to net over 1.5k players on steam.

>>723185832
>you lose it if you die
fuck off lmao

this demo feels soulless, how did they manage to make the bottomless pit premise so lame.
at least the enemy designs are inspired.

dude, sperm

If they don't delay and course correct this shit it is dead on arrival.

>try it out
>having a bit of fun
>game sends me and another player to a goddamn test level instead of a real map
Well i guess we both die…

>>723190658
Both let it die and deathverse were very flawed.
This on the other hand doesn't even have any redeeming features whatsoever. I guess Glicquot is hot PLAP PLAP PLAP PLAP but that's about it.

>everyone just wanted a let it die sequel that was a premium title and had more polish
>they fuck it up not just ONCE but TWICE trying to shove in trends like BR and extraction shit
How are they so retarded?

>>723191642
They really want that live service money. Don't know why. Is it not cheaper to make a premium game when you already have a working formula? They wasted so much money and time working on these 2 flops. Now I am afraid there wont be another chance.

this is where the soul went

Imagine if these guys made the new let it die, like they should have, we would have literally gotten let it die 2

monkey paw'd again it seems, still I gotta hand it to them for keep this dead ip going and fucking it up in unique ways

they shoulda made this f2p because I don't want to burn 20bucks on a dead ass game
guess they realised f2p is a bad idea if your game just dies immediately because you get NO returns

>>723184087
that's the cheater zone, repent

>>723193483
Is it really?

>>723193470
The first game wasn't focused on PvP at all so that would have worked for a premium game. The first game really just needed more polish and the freemium crap removed and it would have been amazing

>>723193606
Could be, odd they would put two people in a dev zone in which you can kill one another over and over, looks like a punishment

wait so grasshopper has nothing to do with this? so it's just pure slop

>>723193470
Even worse is it still has very blatant systems for microtransactions. These fuckers really think they can get away with double dipping.

Should've just reset the tower and transforms the floors into new biomes. Remove the f2p stuff, make it premium, polish everything, add new mechanics and update the base defending stuff. Call it the new Deathdrive XXXXX. Really sad this series is going to die without realizing its full potential because the devs are fucking weird about it.

>>723170902 (OP)
>>723172128
>extraction pvp game

yeah fuck that

Hard to even look at the game with the blurry chromatic aberration everywhere.
Doesn't seem to have much of LiD's dark, macabre atmosphere underpinning the zany campiness - I remember the bosses and their backstories being hilariously grotesque.
Much preferred the retro 80's arcade + splatterhouse bodyhorror aesthetic to whatever this even is (just zany randomness?).
OST making no impression next to LiD's vocal jpunk and gloomy Yamaoka hub theme.
Uncle Death is your big draw beloved mascot and you thoughtlessly recast the VA? There's a thin line between humorously offbeat and annoying - with this, the puppet TV sequences are just painful to sit through...
And on top of all that it's a completely different gameplay loop/genre. Simply nothing here to latch on to if you genuinely liked the original except the brandname (and presumably the exploitative grind??).

>>723172128
>extraction pvp game

LMAO, what a joke.

what was the first game? extraction PvE?

>>723194679
>the puppet TV sequences are just painful to sit through
I found them funny because I understand japanese and the random nature of which words are turned into gibberish entertained me

It’s a flop
This game will be forgotten in a week

>>723172128
>>723194780
they call it PvEvP instead of PvPvE because according to them the PvP plays a minor role.

>>723170902 (OP)
How can let it die have a sequel when it was a shit game

>>723184087
>Aw neat, Melee Souls Slop #3797 is out!
Why aren't there more soulslikes with GUNS? Like remnant 2? Fuken awesome game, I want more.

>>723194837
just a dungeon crawler, you unlocked elevators to go deeper, game "ended" on floor 40, with infinite mode after

I played the OG when it came out new on ps4 and loved it. Finished the original 40 floors, grinded a bit more and stopped because updates were slow and there was a big game coming out that finished off the /vg/ general. I forgot what game it was. I remember the first guy who killed the Jackals because they got stuck in a elevator and devs showed up in his stream to congratulate him lol. Sad to see they made another spin off instead of a sequel.

>>723194837
I dont know if you could call it an extraction game because the goal was to climb instead of replaying the same map. It was more like a dungeon crawler.

>>723195242
>>723195339
yeah, fair enough

>>723195339
I remember now. The game was Nioh. The moment that came out, the Let it Die general just died.

>>723194916
The current players seem to be treating it that way. The only PvP that seems to happen is when someone ganks another person fighting a mob or looting. Anytime I encountered a person face to face we just kind of ignored each other and went separate ways. Chasing down someone would be shit anyway unless one of the gear mods you can get gives you movespeed.

>>723196373
>The only PvP that seems to happen is when someone ganks another person fighting a mob or looting.
This is why I don't like Extraction games. Is just battle royale for people who prefer looting over pvp but that little bit of pvp is mostly ganking and griefing.

4 of my 8 deaths have been to pvp
3 have been crashes or being loaded into that test area with no escape
1 was an enemy mob
PvP seems to be a pretty huge part of the game all things considered.

>>723194916
it seems fairly major right now, to the point that if you just plucked the PVP out of it, you would end up with a really shallow and boring experience of braindead enemies

safe box makes death not as horrible
if you get put in the dev box put your shit in the safe box

>>723198089
Wow a whole 10 weight of inventory is protected. Thanks Gungho!

>>723198396
oh is it that ass? loool
I just thought about it I didn't try it

>>723198606
Yes. Your storage at base only holds 50 as well.
Don't worry, there will be a way to expand both. Now if you'd enter your credit card details please.

>>723199634
a in gameplay safebox you can pay to expand so you dont risk losing stuff does sound pretty egregious especially in a pay to play game

They fucked up not once but twice! Just fucking sell the IP already.

This should have just been a remake of the first game that increased the number of floors. A soulslike with an industrial setting where all you're doing is scaling a giant tower sounds great especially with let it dies music and aesthetic. How do they continue to fuck it up

>>723201515
different dev, different director, different vision
gung ho involved

Just sell the IP to the Chinese there is a better chance they'd make something good

>>723171671
It's beatable without paying, but the game will make it as agonizing as possible to try and prevent this.

>>723171671
Floors 1-41, aka the main campaign, are beatable easily f2p.
Floors 42+ are quick and dirty "what if we made EVERY enemy the hardest enemy type", and also as they were releasing these floors they added more and more pay to win decals

beat the main campaign, and maybe do some of the 44ce bosses if you want to play some post game content

Can't wait for another year of emergency let it die updates after this turd flops.

>>723204871
realistically, could I just chip away at the higher floors without having to pay and it would still be fun or is it just a wall

>>723206353
Depends. The post story floors work completely differently. Every enemy is replaced with "haters" which are mostly dead player characters.

The thing is, when someone dies, it's usually because most their weapons and armor are broken. So most of these guys are free kills and are even easier than the regular enemies in the lower floors.

But you might notice the use of "most" up there. The devs realized this flaw, and made it so at least 1 or 2 of these guys are developer bots fully loaded with fresh equipment. These are the dangerous fucks, but you can take care of them easily with ranged weapons.

Then there are the boss refights which you need real gear for. They're also bullet resistant so you can't cheese them out.

>>723206353
oh yeah for sure
also hypothetically if you're playing on steam, they have never deleted any of the monthly 90% off death metal packs, so you could just wait for the next "all 4* and 5*" gacha event, buy like 10 or 20 of those $1 packs, and get a bunch of top tier gacha crap (that you can also roll for free but is rare) and chalk up the $10 to $20 as the cost of an actual game

there are some unique bosses in the post floor 41 stuff but you can beat the actual original game fully f2p and not have any issues. just remember that you do need to upgrade gear and stuff (its like 10 to 30 minutes cooldowns on that until you get gear to the top tier research levels then its like 4 to 6 hours real time or skippable for 1 death metal ala warframe lmao)

>>723170902 (OP)

Kernel level anti cheat... hell no..

>>723192691
true

>>723170902 (OP)
Wasn't the first game F2P? Why does this one cost money?

>>723207525
its like dark souls with pvevp or pvpve so if it was f2p you would get kamikaze hacker accounts flooding the game. they also recognize this ain't an AAA game so its only $25
good chance its a ps+ game though since they have a good relationship with sony and a lot of mid tier games have been doing the ps+/game pass shit rather than gambling

>>723170902 (OP)
>extraction pvp
Why is everyone chasing this fucking niche genre

>>723208960
For most games its because its a battle royale with an alternative win condition for people that fucking suck.

For this? It basically just means its dark souls except everyone has the same goals - farm shit stay alive and if you want kill some dudes

>>723208960
Because players create competition and content that makes players want to win really bad, and that helps with selling them stuff, while the other mechnaics create and ideally addictive grind loop.

>>723177845
no, Inferno is using Deathverse movement.
You slide around instead of just turning or being able to run in a circle. Stamina is heavily reduced compared to both previous games.

They removed jumping completely pretty much. You jump like a fatass attempting to hop.

The movement overall feels like shit and it doesn't help the game is hard to look at with the shitty chromatic abberation and weird vibrant grunge look they're going for.

Original LiD had a fantastic look to it, simple, clean, and super easy on the eyes.

>>723202034
>different director

It's the same guy. I think it's more his higher ups wanting more service bullshit inserted.

>UE5slop
>OG LiD was left for dead instead of being retooled into a solid $30-40 non-MTX experience

>>723170902 (OP)
Rank 14 senpai. Not a fan of uncle death's new English voice but I'm loving it so far. The mixing of let it die's combat with deathverse's has me hooked, and I only wish to have the full experience now. Imma fucking GRIND TO 50 in this week. UNCLE DEATH WILL SURELY REWARD ME.

>>723189656
It was a game built around duos where you couldn't actually matchmake or play with your friends. It was fucked from the start.

How can I see on the map where the escape pod will drop? Please don’t tell me I have to keep watching the sky...

>>723217296
I watch the sky for hope, but mostly I wander and watch my mini map. That marks them.

>>723217296
>>723217737
Crouching has this ring show around you. Yellow indicators are escape pods

>>723217974
Actually bless you.

>all they had to do was make Let It Die without having the game structure raped by freemium bullshit.
>decide to instead make an extraction game
>on UE5 so it looks like dogshit while running like trash
>it's a paid game but it seems like it will still have the freemium bullshit slapped on top anyway
It's obvious the director is way too ambitious for what his dev team can actually handle

You know this extraction thing would be a fun side gamemode to play with friends when you need a break from climbing the tower, a way to potentially get good gear or have fun pvping. I really don't understand why they would base the whole game around it. It wont sell well and people who do buy it wont bother wasting money on mtx when they get steamrolled by some nolife everytime. It just seems like a failed attempt at greed

>>723221459
It also feels like this will have a way worse steamroll problem than existing extraction games since it's not just gear but also character stats you lose on dying.

Someone post the video of that guy getting one shot by that peacock

>>723221459
Out of touch execs probably. What a shame.

>>723172128
>It costs $25 because they didnt want to balance it around f2p monetization like the first game.
Why can you still buy death metals then?

>>723184087
They didn't let the bugs die

>>723185835
It's not even the same devs, is it?

>pvp extraction
dogshit
>pve extraction as a side activity
could be fun, sadly thats not the case

>>723170902 (OP)
Wait, people liked the original? I always loved the style but I never thought it was very popular.

>>723226607
It was one of those games that had huge potential but got fucked over by it being free to play.
For some reason the devs never got the memo that all people wanted was the original game without the freemium bullshit, but they don't seem to understand that at all.

how the fuck did no one try to reverse engineer LiD server and make a private one with all the freemium shit removed?

>>723195067
OG Let It Die had pistols, magnums, assault rifles, sniper rifles and rocket launchers

>>723170902 (OP)
Grasshopper didnt work on it so it's gonna be shit and charmless instead of bad and charming.

>>723217296
Pods spawn in the big zones in the map
i think the spawns are static and they're divided in 2 waves each zone

>>723171474
God fucking damnit, it was available to me at first too, but I didn't preorder immediately and was still waiting.
FUCK
Maybe it's for the best... I'm not too keen on these pvp extraction games...

>>723226328
money

>>723170902 (OP)
The game is a visual fucking mess, so much to the point that it's an active detriment just trying to play it.
This could be completely avoided by just adding as simple toggle for chromatic aberration and motion blur.
What the fuck is with JP devs and being so technologically incompetent?

>>723171474
Gaming is healing.
>>723170902 (OP)
I'm not too keen on the Fortnite-ish cartoon visual design?

Gave it another shot today.
It's not looking good bros...

>>723226479
but they specifically market it as a pvevp game empathising that it's mostly a pve game but with a little bit of pvp that's mostly a side activity on the "death jamboree" mode (which was deathverse)

This shit fucking sucks doods

>demo

i'm so tired of indians working in gaming

>EAC
No thanks

>>723226607
I was all over that shit up until release and it was trying to nickle and dime you like crazy.
I hear it's not so bad today, but as much as I love the style I vehemently refuse to play your game if it's constantly trying to milk your wallet.

>>723180128
>the series
nigger, It has one entry. It´s far from being a "series"

>>723233787
max i got was floor 110 without paying so
i dunno what to tell you

>>723170902 (OP)
Did 3 rounds and hit maxbody rank for the demo.
IMO, the gameplay feels too basic, normal enemies aren't a threat due to stunlock and the only hard thing to fight are other players. However, there's simply too much SPLithium in the map and the map is too large. This means that there is actually very little reason to fight other players at all.
Also, since enemies are so easy to stunlock, there's no reason to jump to the 2nd zone as soon as the round start to get dibs on rarer gear and SPLithium skulls, especially if you have certain weapons (katana) with good AoE rage skills that can wipeout the door guards easily.

Issues with the game

1 - Jumping is fucking useless
2 - I dont like the classes/bodies available
3 - 15 minutes is way too fucking short, I have to assume theres longer versions later but I want confirmation
4 - Stamina is way too low even if im sure theres upgrades for it later

>>723233890
well there was also that shitty 4 player shit thing

>>723233890
It had 2 games. Now it's 3. It's a series.

I find it amusing how the demo, a thing that's supposed to sell the game, actually did the opposite for me. Maybe anons will get a proper taste for it and explain to me what I'm missing on, but right now I'm removing it from the wishlist. Such a shame.

>>723233891
That's great but I wasn't going to spend 200 hours to do that 9 years ago.
The game had sovl, but was ruined by corpo greed.

>>723234923
can agree with that
i spend a lof ot time afk and doing other things in the game so i ended playing 3000 hours

How's the third zone?

I just got killed by a Raider was that a real person or an NPC?

>>723234902
Same thing happend to me.
Removed it from my wishlist after 2 hours. More than 70% of the map was not used at all thanks to the 15 min limit. Spawn points always are the same. Reseting my progress at the end of the demo killed it for me. No upgrade materials, talismans will be p2w items, limited storage that you can buy for real money. Not paying 30€ for a game only for it to ask me to spend another 50-100€.

>Low settings
problem but lmao fucking god. This performance is awful even for unreal sloppa and finding this was a cherry on top after struggling a bit to find them initially

For something so important and pain in the ass to fight over, you'd think they'd be more obvious. If you see a yellow marker for escape pods on your sonar and can't "see" them, they may be above you on the building and not loaded in from below to be visible.

>>723234902
It's been a pretty big deterrent for me so far.
I find myself having fun for a moment, and then after hearing player footsteps/combat nearby, the game immediately swaps genres to the standard PvEvPshit of players being the only real threat and having to hunt down and kill them before they inevitably attempt ambush me and get BONKED

it's over

Alright, after giving it an hour I can safely say I'm not buying this.
Not sure how they managed to fuck up uncle death's english voice actor like that, I know it's been a decade but was getting the last guy that hard?

>>723238290
This is probably why he wasn't in Deathverse or Inferno.

>>723238493
>Uncle Death is a stoner
Even more reason to bring him back

>>723238493
ah yeah, this is a death sentence in Japan's corporate world.

is this game really going to be just raiding the same three floors over and over again forever? How are they going to make this compelling long term?

>>723242015
Looking at the raider license they have 2 more regions planned, or they're already finished for the main release. But I'm those will just mirror the first region; 3 building prefabs pasted a couple of times on each floor connected by hallways.

>>723238493
Maybe japs know something and the nation not having drug use stygmatized is actually saving us from an undesirable future, but man, the corpos there are absolutely moronic.

how come nobody has posted images of the hub girl even though she's sex incarnate

>>723245184
I wonder if she's "fully modeled" under her clothes like the elevator girl from the original game.

>>723242015
is this your first demo in your life?

>>723238493
In japan this is a crime on the level of eating babies

>>723170902 (OP)
The genre switch sounds insanely gay, but I need to know what’s most important: is the soundtrack good?

>>723245815
compared to what? it's more like deathverse with an original ost if you were thinking of the original game's licensed soundtrack. but there's only one track in the demo.

>>723170902 (OP)
So looking at the Steam Discussion Forum, a Dev or PR person is answering some questions and taking feedback regarding the game
It seems DEATHJAMBOREE will the mode without the PVP and will be the PVE mode
How available it will be or if its tied to anything else, I have no idea

https://steamcommunity.com/app/2576150/discussions/0/601918052458749909/

>>723246103
I have never even heard of Deathverse, so I was foolishly hoping they would do what they did with the first one.

>>723246181
>DEATHJAMBOREE
lol, that's the pvp only mode

>>723246364
the deathverse music was really good though. whoever does their electronic music in-house has a proper understanding of groove

>>723246374
Ah, nevermind then
RIP I guess, hopefully they actually take the feedback being given and decouple it and make the PVEVP a side thing

>>723246504
>whoever does their electronic music in-house has a proper understanding of groove
it was akira yamaoka lol

I'm not feeling it. I through this would be us exploring the depths of that hole, like that manga deep in abyss. But an time-limited extraction pvp game is not my thing. Adios

>>723246181
>>723246374
why force it when people have said they'd rather not

>>723247174
>timed shit
guess i wont be buying it

Am I the only one who thought he sounded mexican?

>all the posts about why it looks rough with performance being so bad
>check out the trailer
>it's all I needed to know

>>723248279
idk for me personally I'd prefer that mode over whatever this braindead pve gameplay is. that said, this game lacks the systems that made death jamboree work well in deathverse, like the fairly telegraphed shield, jumping and running attacks, a jump that actually gets you places, unique weapon properties and so on...
god I miss deathverse. it was genuinely good gameplay wise but they fucked up everything else about it.

>>723248279
They're hoping they'll get lucky and blow up like tarkov did

>>723203203
>Chinks
>they'd make something good
Who are you kidding? They will just it turn into gacha slop with hideous looking tranime characters

>>723250168
tarkov doesn't have a free for all death match mode with no bullshit

>>723207525
>why do le things cost money

>>723233557
>remove pvp
That would be removing 50% of the content. The AI is brainless and there's not much of them either

>>723237358
It's a low draw distance issue, you can see how extreme it is if you go out where the grass is
>>723250724
i keep getting shat on by the humanoids, but i don't know if it's a me issue or the game tanking my framerate everytime we hit each other

>>723250387
yea it doesn't what about it

>>723236087
And considering this is a shitty live service with no offline play it's just throwing money down the drain.

>>723251071
you said the reason they're adding death jamboree (pure pvp) in addition to the pvpve extraction mode is because of tarkov

>>723252018
I thought you were referring to forcing the pvp in general, since theres no pve only mode

the create your own room shit might be our ticket to pve lobbies brohs..

>>723252330
why would I play a game with mediocre pve combat for the pve combat. even deathverse, the fast paced compact br game had better pve

so raiders are players? i'm getting that right?

>>723252990
Correct.
You'll see them noted special on the bottom of final score card when you kill them. You should be able to distinguish them fast enough from the normal mostly naked NPCs walking around patrol routes. Keep a fast swinging weapon like the katana or chainsaw sword, mash, and that second attack in the combo will catch almost everyone trying to roll from you.

I'm not sure how many total people are in matches yet. At least five since I just had a game where I killed three people and heard a fourth in the distance before the game ended

>>723253530
unexpected, and weird to notice them (at least "player geared enemies" in the first game could be easier to spot
still dissapointing at the timelimit

Tried demo.
not a a fan.

>>723253786
sometimes something looks good. and trying it confirms it or denies it
sometimes something looks like shit , so you dont need to try it
sometimes something looks like shit, you play it and its good
the last one is the weirdest of all anyway

>>723170902 (OP)
Suda and Grasshopper have lost it.

Make it pve only and make the enemies not braindead and I cop the game instantly. I can tolerate ghost pvp too but not real time

>>723253530
>>723253707
other players are called raiders. everyone else is just called humanoid

>>723255060
I wanted this to be good so bad. I love the protag look and gameplay looked great on trailers. Then it flopped hard.

Just started playing, I like the tattooed girl

>>723255060
This game felt like it should have been a Newgrounds flash game, it's insane it turned out the way it did. This single piece of artwork is probably the best thing about it

>>723245184
post her

>>723255948
Anon it looked like absolute shit in the trailers.

>>723255060
>This came out finally
wtf, I assumed it was still in dev hell

>>723179895
Perhaps they should....Let it Die

>>723255060
Neither Suda nor GhM have anything to do with the new LiD or Hotel Barcelona

>>723179895
at least this franchise isn't full of blind fanboys that will keep buying it/playing it even when its completely different
yet

>>723257580
Looks like a stall in an innercity public restroom.

>>723257580
no

I really like how it looks and the art direction but fuck me if it's at the cost of insane UE5 performance demands

>dont like the timelimit
>game seems completely different from the first
may aswell make a racing game and call it let it die

>>723258847
let it die kart woulda been preferable
I'd main COEN

>>723258680

Tattoos are gay

>>723259009
but at least we would know its a spinoff

clicquot cute

>>723259706
you just know she's fully textured and modeled under that

>>723170902 (OP)
nah, fuck it. I should let it die.

>>723170902 (OP)
Just played through the tutorial and holy shit this looks like ass and runs bad also the TV cutscenes aren't playing for me probably some proton shit, shame because I enjoyed those 30 minutes.

I can't believe they refused to make let it die 2 twice and now the franchise is going to end because this game will bomb a 2nd time.

the fuck is "ant bazaar"

>>723259573
>Tattoos are gay
tattoos are cool

>>723261212
(you) sell shit to other players
it's that tiny terminal close to the shop

>>723260797
>I can't believe they refused to make let it die 2 twice and now the franchise is going to end because this game will bomb a 2nd time.
They could make as shitty of a game as they wanted and I'd be fine with it if they made as killer a soundtrack as the original.

>both bodies are ugly and annoying

And that's a pass from me, sadly. It's 2025. If your game doesn't have a character creator you are fucking up.

>>723170902 (OP)
How's the music?

Wish it was good but it aint.
Maybe I'll go back and 1-40 Let it Die again.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JgQYAZqp_lU

>>723264293
It's nothing like the original, if that's what you were hoping. All the different tunes, the massive amount you could browse and customise your base with in LiD - none of that's here.

I've wasted enough time on this now - it's a fucking shame, but they should have just made a straight sequel to LiD, and they should have figured this out after Deathverse flopped. This is just disappointing, frankly. Combat somehow feels weaker than the original, there's no absurd mushroom collectibles, no recovering your bodies after you lose them, no incredible OST, Uncle Death's voice actor is totally different, useless jump, skill tree was a series of boring stat upgrades for both characters, most of the post-escape upgrades were dull, no big titty elevator girl - I really loved the original LiD, but this ain't it.

>>723265507
I had a strong feeling that would be the case

>>723265507
For me it was clear they didn't understand the let it die sauce when they turned mushrooms into a generic health tonic and there's no sign of the mushroom magistrait.
Such a big part of let it dies world building just completey scrapped and shoved to the side, they've done this with so many aspect of the original let it die.
It's not even a videogame in a alternate world being played in an arcade anymore.
All that stylistic flourish and creativity has been sanded down, pushed to the side and recycled... fucking.. raiders association.. how fucking uninspired.

>>723266548
Also that, yeah. The quirkiness of the setting was a large part of the appeal of LiD - all the disjointed, bizarre parts of it blended together to make something unexpectedly refreshing. Some of the monster designs here are alright, and the loading screens have some solid art, but everything else on show here was so watered down and vapid by contrast to the original

What do you call the aesthetics of the first game? It was dark and gritty but also goofy and arcadey.

>game is called Let It Die
>keeps getting rehashed

>>723269309
>original game STILL gets updates (in the form of reusing the current content and fiddling around with the numbers)

>>723234902
That's how it was playing the first game for me, thought it looked interesting, and it actually played like shit. Playing this was a similar experience.

>>723268780
I've been calling it 2000s-core because it's a style that existed then and not so much since
..even tho let it die released in 2016, suda 51 and grasshopper have been riding that style since then

Welcome to 4chan, the site where grown men cry like children for not getting exactly what they wanted.

I'm really enjoying the game, I think it's a super fun mix between LID and DV, almost getting it perfect.

It's a little rough around the edges admittedly, but it's nothing that can't be ironed out, and this is obviously just a vertical slice of what's to come. Who knows what else is all in the full game come December 3rd. People act like 2 months isn't a lot of time to make some changes when it in-fact, is quite a good chunk of time for a product of this quality.

All I'd really ask for is some better optimization.

>>723272116
>shit jump
>no running attacks
>no jumping attacks
>no shield
it's literally lacking all the good things from deathverse

>>723274360

kill yourself

>>723272116
>Welcome to 4chan, the site where grown men cry like children for not getting exactly what they wanted.
>why are you complaining the toyota you bought is a helicopter!?
you are really retarded

>>723170902 (OP)
I don't hate it, I actually quite like it. But honestly, it's not at all what I wanted from a let it die sequel

>>723268780
Reminds me a lot of Dorohedoro and turns out the mangaka actually worked in Let it Die, feels like you can't find such grungy style anywhere else

>>723279602
This looks so fucking cool. Why give it up? You can do so much with it. Look at all those floors and themes.

>>723272116
Yeah it has potential but the constant drops and pop in are awful
Japs cant into optimization so it probably wont be fixed

>>723279602
If that's true then I imagine that's a portion of the original game's feel. Doro had a consistently carefree darkness to it and it worked well. Gruesome, but also whimsical.

does it have a nice and SOVL soundtrack?

Sorry man I was wrong, she actually worked on Shadows of the Damned guess I got that mixed up with LiD
