00000000000000000000000000000129I watched a lets play and it did not look like 60 dollars worth (if that's what it costs), would definitely cop during the inevitable PSN sale tho (like I did with jstars+)

the anchor (grappling) mechanic and titan parts has me interested tho

The movement alone is outstanding - but like many Dynasty Warriors games, it is a bit repetitive (some missions though... )

But even as a KT fan, I can't really say that this is worth the full 60. Maybe if they had some more creative looks in the game... create a player, different mission objectives, its just lacking the tiny bit of content necessary for me to be like "okay, 60 bucks and this was worth it"

Its fun though, don't downplay that. This is a lot of fun.

God Eater 2 is easily the better purchase but hey... if you can get this cheap or rent, then I'd do that. I don't regret buying it though. Just my 2 cents

Is it worth the $60?

I wish there was a demo I'm really interested in playing

Wait for the price drop.
I'd say it's worth at least $40

Mikasa is a fukkin beast

Armin goddamn this dude can squad up and give his goons exact orders on what body parts to attack- and its so efficient

I thought Mikasa was a beast with her chain attack shenanigans, but I'm posted up on a clock tower calling shots from the skyline

the unique abilities are so fukking piff Eren choke slamming Titans never gets old either

but when they grab you

How does this compare to freedom wars gameplay wise

How does this compare to freedom wars gameplay wise

eh.... I see where you're getting at with Freedom War's tethering (?)/hook mechanics and this, but they're really very very different games. But on that topic, let me say that Freedom Wars' controls when it came to that were pretty bad. Even for a Vita game. There were more things you could do with the hook mechanic, but it was just... it never feels like a core part of the game like the ODM stuff in Attack on Titan.

Also, Freedom Wars had a metric ton of issues as a monster hunter-type game. It was never balanced, it was waaaaaaaay too repetitive for a game of that type, and it just never got the polish it needed gameplay wise. It was made by the same people who did God Eater and its just nowhere close. It did all the aesthetic stuff right, but mechanically it was a piece of shyt when it came to gameplay and the hunting/rpg aspect.

On the flipside, Attack on Titan is made by Omega Force, the Dynasty Warriors people. And it still maintains a lot of commonalities with Musou games - which is good and bad. The battlefield and requirements typically are the same as what you'd see there. The ODM stuff is WAY better than anyone expected it to be coming out of that studio. Like, by itself it is fukking good. That part of the game is almost perfect. My only complaint is the camera will sometimes blind you as you'll too close to geometry. But as far as movement comparisons between Freedom Wars and Attack on Titan, Attack on Titan completely destroys it.

Attack on Titan does a decent job of storytelling for a product like this too. You can get a good experience out of it without ever watching the anime or reading the manga - wasn't expecting that. The biggest issue with the game so far is the content. There are some light RPG mechanics in it like developing and upgrading gear, leveling characters and your camp, unlocking stuff, etc but its nothing amazing. Game could've added a ton of life to itself by adding a create a player, giving Titans more tools to fukk you up (they already manage to snatch your ass up with the quickness, but I mean things you'd see in the show like snagging your wire, throwing things, stuff of that nature to make them a bit more diverse), and maybe introducing scenarios/stories that aren't from the source material.

Like... I'm having a ton of fun with the game but again I just can't say its worth 60 bucks. Its fun as fukk, but I gotta be 100 about the amount of content and what people should expect for 60 bucks these days.

Thread hella old but I'm bumping because I just bought the sequel at Gamestop

HOLY fukking shyt

This is like Dynasty warriors meets Spider-Man 2, the verticality in this game is fukking insane


This game is technically a sequel, but its more of a refined version of the first game apparently, basically the first game but better all around, better graphics, better gameplay etc.

Just got into the show and was curious on if there were games for it! Seems like y’all liked them

They're pretty fun, can get repeititve really fast like most Dynasty Warrior games.

Main issue is Koei barley put their games on sale. Better off getting the 2nd one.
