      I'm kidding. As I've gotten older, I switch to easy in a heartbeat.
      Once upon a few years ago I was starting on easy I was so over it lol.
      I actually played Celeste though and managed to maintain Normal mode so now you've made me feel good about myself lol.
      That was really the first platformer I played since I've been older thinking I didnt like them anymore but the story pulled me in and now I'm all about it.

      Nice! That game is just bonkers in the later levels. I've gotten into shoot 'em ups for the first time in my life and have done a dive into bullet hells. I rather enjoy them, despite the chaos. I'll play on easy-med depending on the game. Though with the Psikyo shooters I'm playing on "monkey" as they call their easiest mode, mostly because that makes me laugh!

    This looks really great and I'll definitely be picking up the Japanese version. I've been craving a solid game in this style and the emphasis on balance in your review easily sold me on it. Of course, the beautiful graphics and impressive gameplay footage didn't hurt either. Thanks for the review.

    I'm really surprised they made the collectors edition for this game so amazing but Gunvolt 3 was kinda underwhelming. I'd have thought they'd have put more into the Gunvolt 3 collectors edition. Inticreates is my favorite by a large margin. Love just about everything they put out.

  • @rozanyan_8700
    @rozanyan_8700 Před 2 lety

    Maybe i'm not long enought playing it, but if i compare it to the first one, it's become very slow paced because the nerf in air dash is very bad. I'm already played both copen and gunvolt, but i prefer copen gameplay because his "bullit dash" that make him very much fun to play, i remember i have to keep floating in entire 1st stage with the dash just to get higher combo and get the s+, it's hard, but it's so much fun and chalenging at the same time, so nerfing the best thing about copen is just make me kinda dissapointed. Maybe the devs want to be more beginner friendly just like adding the healing option, but it's lost his appealing feature for some of the veteran player like me to this game in the first place. In the end, it's still a great game, i hope the devs handle copen adjusment better in the next game to appeal both veteran and beginner player
