Man, don't do that. What's that gonna accomplish?

I'd say both of those games are best played by fans of the genre. They both take cracks at the tropes in the genre/medium. Though Barkley does it for comedy from end to end, wheras Undertale switches to drama when it wants. And both, I feel, manage to do their combat in a more interesting way...

On the subject of not liking a game hating you for wanting to play it, that's not quite the case here. The more engaging actions are dodging attacks, and figuring out the Act puzzles for ending fights. If you want to play the game, there's more game in not attacking.

No, marioandsonic is right. The game started out as a sonic fangame, and Lilac started out as a hedgehog. The game eventually became more or less its own thing, and Lilac became a dragon, but that's how it started out. You can definitely see it in the older footage of the game's early...

Compared to Dark Souls, it's quite low. The difficulty is somewhat harder than old Sonic games. The bosses, in particular, put up more of a fight, putting focus on the game's dedicated combat (as opposed to Sonic where all combat was jumping).

...Man, it is just... really unfortunate that this came out the very day that Freedom Planet's Wii U port got delayed indefinitely, until they fix the bugs in the port. Just really bad timing. Oh, and the cat's attacks? The one that uses meter has invincibility frames for the duration of the...

Yes, okay. They designed their game around a control scheme, made sure the game was built with it in mind. Good design philisophy, making sure you have your controls planned out. What does that have to do with the suitability of one control scheme for a genre? Are... are you trying to say...

That's... an interesting statement. By all accounts, Drakengard 1 had almost nothing going for it beyond the comically bleak story. Drakengard 2 had better gameplay at the expense of having an idiot plot and an overly-complex New Game Plus system. Nier and DG3 are, by most accounts, pretty...

I do think I prefer the look of Assault to what I've seen of Zero. But what I've seen of Zero amounts to third-hand footage over a cell phone video player, so eh. What does bug me about Zero is the story. Why are we rebooting to the fight with Andross again?

I'd love to see this one explained.

Drunk off 1 shot? Lightweight.

I'd hesitate to say any idea is inherently good or bad (unless we're talking about an idea that's racist or otherwise harmful, I suppose) as a concept alone. Any idea can sound amazing or terrible depending on how you phrase it (did you know people actually like a game in which you fight nothing...

Concepts are meaningless on their own. The execution is what determines if it's good or not.

Wait, but doesn't Quan Chi get killed, and pointedly not restored to life by Shinnok, kinda removing the opportunity to either resurrect more revenents or restore them to normal life?

Skyward Sword has a villain kind of like what you're asking for. Ghirahim is actively looking for the things he needs to awaken his master, and acts as a dungeon boss twice, personally makes bosses to fight Link another two times, and shows up at the end of another dungeon to try and kill the...
