I agree, I personally loved the way the story was set up.Casual Shinji said:I sort of liked the particular lack of plot focus, in a Miyazaki-ish way. It gave a nice contrast, where you have this girl with superpowers who instead of going on an epic quest of self discovery spends most of her time living day by day, meeting random people, and getting into cute little adventures. It reminded me of Kiki's Delivery Service most of all.
And while there was a level of fetishizing, it never got leary in any way. Or maybe it was just because Kat was so endearing that it couldn't take away from her character. It was fun to play a female protagonist in a AAA game who's kinda girly, and not posturing or trying to be a badass.
They should have had it like Psi-Ops's Telekinesis or The Force Unleashed's Force TK. Although the former was better honestly because if I remember correctly about The Force Unleashed, Psi-Ops' TK'd objects would automatically lock on to enemies for you in the direction you were throwing them if there were any enemies, making it seamless and smooth and fun.plutoburns said:As one of the mad people that played this on the vita, its nice to see yahtzee being uncharacteristically forgiving to this mess of a game. And he nails it. The game is a mess, but it manages to be a really charming mess. And even though flinging objects is finicky, its the only other worthwile combat maneuver, so I used it a lot just to inject some fucking variety.
I suppose it is charming that its creators seem so sure of a sequel. It's been, what, 4 years now?totheendofsin said:As someone who loves the game and is looking forward to the sequel... Yeah this review was right on the nose, the game is a mess both combatwise and story wise, there's little reason to use anything other than the gravity kick for combat and when it comes to the story it feels half done, it answers none of the questions it starts with and asks a whole lot of new ones.
But it has a certain charm that I can't really explain

The sequel was announced at Paris Games Week last year and is due out this yearDarth_Payn said:This game's story has what I call LOST-it is: yanking up plot threads that either remain un answered or will be unsatisfying in their resolution.

You heartless jerk! I don't know what image you were trying to post here, but did you even once stop to think about what you were doing to Bisqwit? He works his fingers to the bone keeping his website up and running, and because you posted that image here now there isn't enough bandwidth for someone who wants to look at it on his site. You should have just done what everybody else here does and set up your own private server to host all the images you have a passing interest in sharing on a forum somewhere!moosemaimer said:I suppose if anyone was going to patent the divekick it would be Konami, if they could be pulled away from the gambling machines for a few minutes.
I was going to say, I googled the character afterwards to see if it was as ridiculous as he was making it out to be, and that's it?BX3 said:Y'know, I found it kinda weird how many times Yahtzee brought up Kat's state of dress; one of the things I actually kind of liked about her design is that it never struck me as overly provocative.
Then again, I watch too much anime.
