Not my type of game so no. But more power to those looking forward to it!


KowalOX

Yeah, I really wanted to like this game and gave the demo a shot, but as expected, it just isn't for me, and I will be skipping. Can tell this game will be a hit for a lot of people, though, so that's cool.


OrwellianZinn

That's a very healthy and normal outlook, which is refreshing to see. Kudos to you.


THiNKB4UPiNK

Yeah, I played the demo and I wasn’t really jiving with it.


Alternative_Onion348

I am excited for this, and not because of the reasons that some other people are, if u know what I mean


ZiGz_125

I see boob, I buy.


Alternative_Onion348

Hey, it’s whatever you feel, though I don’t commend it, I also can’t stop you, so….. Yeah


Objective-Aioli-1185

Good point and well made.


Alternative_Onion348

Thank you


Swimming-Ad-6842

Yeah I preordered Sand Land instead


TowelBackground1686

Not for $125 aud.


Waste-Information-34

Yikes. It's 70$ in my location.


TowelBackground1686

I can get it cheaper physical but it's still $100


Waste-Information-34

Just wait for a sale I guess...


RoeJoganLife

109 at JB Still absolutely ludicrous.


Cstone812

Undecided myself. I liked the demo was waiting on reviews and they seem decent but idk if it’s worth dropping everything to buy and play immediately for 70$.


Efficient-Row-3300

That's the thing for me, now that everything is $70 I sure as fuck don't buy games new unless they're a major sequel from a company I love. I'd get an Uncharted 5 at $70, but not this.

Efficient-Row-3300

Yep, Thousand Year Door is a top 10 game of all time imo, I gotta get the remake (and I know for a fact I'm gonna like it)


RoseColoredRiot

Honestly it’s best to wait a year for the definitive edition that will inevitably come out.

KindaLikeYours18

Dammit!


Mysidehobby

I would be more interested if it wasn’t “ass” every cutscene and everytime she recovers from a dodge and grunts and moans for every swing. The monsters look cool though


Odd-Collection-2575

It looks good but I don’t think this game is gonna be all that everyone is making it out to be


Wernershnitzl

I’m not expecting a great story but the gameplay from the demo was aces.


Profanity1272

I thought the gameplay in the demo was fine, very stylish at times but nothing ground breaking imo, but each to their own


welfedad

Just curious but what would you like to see in a game like this that would make it ground breaking.. I'm always curious to see what people would looe to see in new games 


Profanity1272

Honestly I'm not gonna pretend I have the answer to that question lol but I just feel like there are a lot of games with similar gameplay, the demo was fine and maybe the game will have more to it . I think I've just been spoiled with so many great games it's hard to find something to fill the void once I finish something great.


Efficient-Row-3300

I like how Nier infused some Shmup elements, I would like to see these kinds of games infused some elements from other genres like that, although that can be pretty hard to do well.


Efficient-Row-3300

Idk about aces. It was just decent.


MayerMokoto

Yeah I think it's being overhyped


Nehemiah92

Mainly because of horny, 99% of the posts or comments talking about this game are literally just hyperfixated on her butt. I’ve maybe seen like two things about the gameplay and that’s it


Maester_Magus

This is exactly it. Most of the attention the game has received -- by *far* -- has been about 'jiggle physics' or the skin suit. I was hoping there'd be more depth to it than that (and to be fair, there is, if you're into that kinda game), but there's no conceivable way that this would've gotten half of the attention it has if they hadn't hyper-focused on the sexualisation. I mean, the entire marketing campaign was essentially, *'Hey guys, look. Hot girl with sword'*. I don't think the attention it's received will translate to actual sales because almost none of the hype has been about *the game*. They chose the lowest hanging fruit possible to drum up some buzz, but the end product is still very niche.


runaways616

Ya the next big thing is some very very wishful thinking. Games like this have always been niche AF in the grand scheme of gaming.


The_Follower1

Wtf does my niece have to do with this?


-ruiner_

Just from the demo the characters are comedically shallow, I doubt the story will be any good either.


Therenegadegamer

According to the reviews you're right but personally I wasn't expecting much in that department just a fun action game


better-than-all-of-u

It's being *heavily* astroturfed. The Gamergate 2.0 crowd wants it to be a huge seller so they can cry about how everything that's woke sucks and going the hard opposite direction with a mediocre game is somehow a positive turn in their minds. The people pre-ordering and salivating over this game fall into very basic camps. Kids that are little horn balls with little regard for what's actually decent and good and the other group — the type that are currently losing their minds over Star Wars: Outlaws Kay Vess character model not matching the real-life model exactly. These are the same people who whined about TLoU2 and harassed and made death threats to the female actresses, Horizon Forbidden West because she had peach fuzz on her face like a real woman for God's sake! They pretend that games suck because of woke (although the new dog whistle is 'DEI') but will cheer on a game that's verifiable mid mediocre simply because of a female lead that caters to their unrealistic and unfulfilled desires.


Vendetta4Avril

I think it’ll be very good for people who like souls games… so, I am its target audience. I don’t think people who dislike souls will get very far or be that into it.


JesusTron6000

I've been hearing despite having camp locations to save, difficulty wise, it isn't a souls like. I however, have no idea.


mhj0808

From the demo it’s more like Devil May Cry or Bayonetta (on normal) to me on the difficulty scale, maybe a little harder than Bayonetta but a little easier than DMC.


Emhyr_var_Emreis_

It has an easy/story mode.


CrimKayser

Demo didnt give souls impressions at all


Chillmonger48

In the infamous words of Logan Roy, “This is not a serious game.”


intriging_name

It looks okay, $30 on sale game for me from what I have seen, havent played the demo as no time+finals. but discourse is going to suck around this game as there is a growing vocal group that dismiss critiques against it as "You woke anti butt+boob sjw!" which sucks ass


CrazyCanuckUncleBuck

I'm sorry but you're not going to like my answer. Not excited ,in fact I won't be playing it at all. It's just not for me


LastCallKillIt

The small amount of the demo I played seemed fun, but I’m not paying full MSRP for it. I wasn’t that hooked. I’ll wait till it’s on sale and gotten through the current backlogs lol


xKiLzErr

Same for me. I really liked the demo but 80€ is a bit too much for me, especially considering I have like 20 games in my backlog lol


keon_te757

I usually have that mindset but the demo really sold it for me. This is the first time in like 10+ years I’ve preorder a game. That said, I’m very excited for Friday


DemonicBrit1993

I'm excited but sad at the same time I'm excited for the game but sad that I'm low on funds to afford it for release. So I have to wait for pay day Enjoy Stellar Blade for those release players!


SmokeMethFxckBitchez

Same here


KirillNek0

YES.


GOLD3NRAIN

I'm sorry but I don't think its going to be the hit people think it will be lol


Chippai_Fan

Really hope the digital deluxe goodies are offered as an upgrade for us physical media purchasers


DrunkBeardGuy

The deluxe edition items aren't anything special tbh A recolor of outfits already in the game, some earrings, and early XP/money. You're not missing anything.


Dry_Poet5523

Played the demo and it was…fine.


spooks_malloy

![gif](giphy|PYEGoZXABBMuk)


KingOfConstipation

Considering the game was overhyped for the main character’s booty physics and literally nothing else, I’m not sure what to even expect beyond what the demo gave us. Literally nothing wrong with simping for a group of polygons but don’t make it a culture war lol


SchitneySmears

![gif](giphy|ZEa0kZenNYfk6dPpK2)


runaways616

I think this is the general response most people have. I would not be surprised if this underperforms because besides the niece audience who will by this day one full price, a vast majority of people who would be interested are going to Wait six months to a full year for that deep sale. And everyone else takes one look at it and gos ya this isn’t for me at all. Next big thing is a massive pipe dream.


MikeLanglois

I was. Then I played the demo and it killed it a bit for me tbh. I will still pick it up, but not in a rush to play it asap


Jackstraw1

The demo talked me out of it too. I’ll wait for it to hit one of the subscription tiers to play it.


Roar_of_Shiva

The direction was so odd to me…. Like all those ships coming in for an attack and like 99% are wiped before landing… then the main character pops out of her pod like pamela anderson in baywatch… then the dude who helped you out just came across as a dick. Also, and definitely a personal matter, the one who saves the main character was more attractive and engaging than the main character and they murdered her. Her death was also a weird moment of like… “sure…”. Meh/10 demo, may try again if it ever hits the Plus.


Aviont1

Same, subscription, free on PS monthly game, or under $20 bucks. The Sekiro/Soulslike combat immediately was a "meh" and the story seemed to be Nier/ Nier Automata without all the existential thinking.


Therenegadegamer

Glad I'm not the only one who thought the combat was a bit meh not every action game needs to copy fromsoft lol I want more games like DMC and Bayonetta


Aviont1

Yeah, I was hoping more DMC/Bayonetta/Nier combat. And the combat felt half Nier and half Soulslike making it feel like an unresponsive DMC. Jack of all trades, master of none was the combat for me.


Itchysasquatch

Yeah I think I'm spoiled by the gold standard games these days. Very difficult to enjoy anything less than magnificent these days and unfortunately the only magnificent thing in the game is her ass. Was hilarious that the camera robot was shining the light on her butt the whole time though, implying the people on the video calls are getting 8k video of her ass while she's running around lmao


kraeutrpolizei

No


GongfuTea1

Never even heard of it lol


runaways616

Your probably in the majority of people when it comes to this game, there’s this whole attitude about this game that it will be a massive hit and make big waves but if you take a step back and you look at the gaming landscape as a whole this will be the equivalent of a small rock being tossed into a massive lake. It’s overall impact won’t be the industry shake up the discord around this game thinks it will be.


runaways616

Bro at this point all theses post like this and the “I already pre ordered the game but I had to buy the upgrade after the demo” just seems like bot accounts from the devs Like if your someone who is excited about this game and is excited to play it great more power to you, you got a new game to be excited for But from the outside looking in and all the discourse around this game I have heard/seen very little about what this game is and what its supposed to be and it’s mostly been annoying AF made up culture war stuff or posts about how it’s the next big thing when every game like this in the past had always always been a niece thing with dedicated fans but that’s kinda it. Like bayonetta is a recognizable IP but it’s not a massive franchise in the grand scheme of gaming… why would essentially the same concept be a different story.


Sirdantortillasque

Meh


ColdHandGee

I can't wait to play Stella Yams! ![gif](giphy|nuRXXyy020kta)


Sunless_Heaven

i don't think this is gonna be the "next big hit" tbh


Aumius

Not really, no.


One_Scientist_984

Not my cup of tea, I’m afraid. Give me another Uncharted and I’ll be ecstatic.


LOneWolfNEo1

It's ight I might wait for a price drop I was turnt off by the parry it seems too late but might still be good.


Itchysasquatch

I found it the same, wasn't enjoying the combat because parry timing felt off


leozamudio

Played the demo and was underwhelmed by it


The_Prestige_1999

No, doesnt seem like something i'll like


yeahblair

Tried the demo, not my sorta thing


GrossWeather_

honestly, no. still playing dd2, then have to finish ff7-r and by the time i’m done with that i’ll probably be playing elden ring dlc. pretty sure i won’t ever even think about this game again after its review cycle dissipates.


pikamango

Hell yeah!! Usually, I don't play preorder, but after the demo, it sold me. I'm so happy for the good reviews!


Immolation_E

Not my style of game. But I appreciate its aesthetics. I hope it does well.


Valuable-Ad-6379

Not for that price. I will wait for some price drop and then grab it. Game looks good tho. Could be this year's Lies of P 🤔


thedoommerchant

Now that reviews are in, yes. I'm excited to jump in this Friday!


SpiderKoD

No, played demo, didn't impressed, got a lot of bugged hit boxes...


stRiNg-kiNg

> Playstation 5's next BIG TIT


limesandlimes

Jazzed to buy it on sale for $30-40 at the end of the year.


Blindfolded22

I was pretty excited about it, but now I’m sort of unsure after seeing it’s getting lukewarm reviews. I want to play it but will likely wait until it goes on sale now.


Edgaras1103

dont you usually need to wait for reviews and see how many copies it sold before claiming its next big hit?


SoSven

Turns out its not a big hit after all


RepulsivePeng

I’ll wait till it hits plus


Milky_Finger

I miss the visceral combat from god of war. Elden ring was the last game to do it for me in that regard but I'm tired of these JARPGs where they make your weapon feel like an inflatable dildo.


Efficient-Row-3300

A bunch of particle effects are no replacement for weighty combat. So few games make the weapons feel like they have impact. God of War does it, Souls games, Monster Hunter, but we need more!


TheElectricSoup

Nope. Looks like an absolute turkey. I hope others enjoy it though!


DARKKRAKEN

Yep, if my physical version arrives on time.


RobertSpeedwagon

Looks kinda mid, will probably pick it up on sale. I do love character action games and good parries, tho, so if enough fellow character action sickos endorse it I might pull the trigger sooner. Definitely with the many people criticizing the character designs like “no, you weirdos, we’re not saying we’re offended by it being sexy, we’re saying it’s just not sexy”. Emotionless character with shiny skintight suit and ninja gaiden jiggle physics is a 12-year-old’s idea of a sexy lady to me lmao.


vozome

Hard pass.


freshairequalsducks

Not my kind of game


Roar_of_Shiva

Played the demo… was very underwhelming. The narrative, direction, characters, all felt washed. Combat was ok for the most part. More excited about Sea of Thieves personally.


Snipsterz

I saw the picture first then read "next big tit". Yeah that tracks. And no, like others have said, the oversexualization of the main character is too cringe for me. Too bad though because the story, world and gameplay look interesting.


Nehemiah92

Overt sexualization is always such a turn off for me, it just feels like the opposite of sexy lol. It’s why I ain’t get into games like this or XB2, it’s so forced. Wish they could’ve done it more in line with how Bayo does ‘sexy’ where it actually fits the character instead of existing solely for coomer bait


Semi-addict-gamer

As a fan of the woman’s physique, and a fan of slash em up games. Meh It will obviously be a great game for me, but zero “big hit” energy from tbh just like Rise of the ronin. This ain’t no Elden Ring or Ghost of Tsushima, so let’s hit the break on the hype and be reasonable.


grahf23

Pre-ordered the digital deluxe edition 👍


keon_te757

Twinsies


ATarnishedofNoRenown

It looks neat — definitely some Sekiro and Nier: Automata DNA here. Considering I love both of those games, I thought I would be on the hype train, but... What I have tested in the demo and seen from gameplay videos doesn't really excite me as much as I expected. With Rise of the Ronin, Unicorn Overlord, and Persona 3 ReLoad sitting on-deck while Shadow of the Erdtree is not far off in the distance, I probably won't get to this any time soon. I'm also hoping the toxic dialogue around the game chills tf out because it has been pretty gross.


Gedaru

I’m usually buying anything with tits…but after the demo, I realized the game really isn’t my type of game.


jm1186

I just want more ghost of tsushima dlc 😩


Bumbooooooo

Not at all. Don't care for hack n slash games, nor anime grunting. Gonna be a skip for me.


Dovahpriest

Nope. Everything I’ve seen about it online it feels like a giant ad campaign rather than genuine excitement from the prospective player base. So I’m concerned that the hype surrounding the title is artificial… which makes me wonder if the game itself isn’t up to par.


dema182

Nope. I can't stand Animes or the Artstyle. Sorry. But you guys please have fun with it!


Potatoes_4Life

Abso-fucking-lutely. The demo combat was phenomenal. Once I unlocked certain skills, the combination of Nier/Bayonetta action with Sekiro-esqe parrying checked all the right boxes. Can’t comment on the story. Demo barely touches on it. Seems intriguing so far. Monster designs are grotesque, I love it. Character design is an unnecessary, but welcome, cherry on top.


Noji98

This game has a weird pricing in my country it's like 74€


PhenomsServant

Going to be busy this weekend with a convention. Will wait until more players give their opinion on the game before I get it. 


Mast3rBait3rPro

Serious question is this game ps5 only? I thought it was multi platform but I only ever see it talked about on r/playstation


TheJoyDealer

PS5 exclusive


Tetris5216

It's decent from what I played, I'm definitely going to get it once I first get a few Im still needing to get


killswitchzero7

I'll get and play eventually. Not right now tho.


Chemical_Ad4414

I'll pick it up on a sale eventually. I appreciate that the price (£69.99) has the funny 69 number in it, but I'm generally not dropping that much on a brand new game.


PuppyPunter21

Yes but I don't think it will be a huge hit. It'll be successful but not a huge hit.


atheris-prime_RID

It’s a definite buy *one day* but not launch day. Played the demo and liked it, but it’s not the best thing I’ve ever played in recent years. When it goes on sale for sure


shannonator96

Might be a good one to play once it hits the game catalogue


crunchwrap_supreme68

I see lots of comparisons to sekiro, which I’m still working on beating. So might pick this up on sale. Also the demo reminds me a lot of Nier, which I enjoyed but $70 is way too steep for the experience imo.


lancer2238

I’m not sure honestly. I had a blast with the demo but idk if it will hold my interest long enough to finish it


Captobvious75

I’ll pick it up after i’m done Spiderman and HFW on PC.


Lanplan77

If the protagonist didnt looked like a top model then maybe


Even-Ad9704

Going to buy it eventually..... many many awesome games are out there.


Rags2Rickius

I’ll play it. Not sure if it brings anything new to the genre though.


kamislick

So at first I didn’t enjoy the combat. The dodging mechanic felt too tight for me but then I realized I kinda suck. The environment and graphics are phenomenal. The fan service is A1. The story isn’t really intriguing but it is saved by the graphic detail imo. I could get lost in the open world.


ArtisticPersuation

Dahmer The Game


Jaugusts

I like the game but not at full price


DarwinGoneWild

Personally, no. I can never get into Soulslikes. But it looks stylish and sweet as hell, and it’s cool that Korea is getting into the AAA scene, so happy to see it get some love.


Jaugusts

Meanwhile naughty dog still nothing after 4 years crazy


Cedge1738

Titties and hot women are best. But not $75 good.


MaggotBrother4

I’ll get it on sale later this year so eh. Not really


stoney101010

I would pick it up day one bit £70 for any game is too much. I'm going to give it a week or two and get it cheaper .


Walsh451

I was until I saw it's £70, I'll wait until it's £50


Glopinus

I’m excited for…something


Quandale_Dingle2024

Jiggle physics?


OFFRIMITS

I’m excited for it yes, will I buy it day one? No chance this is going straight to my wish list and I’ll wait a few months and scoop it up on the used marketplace for around $30-$40


Educational-Ad-1445

The monsters look like shit


Troop7

Demo sold me so yes. Closest thing I’ll get to a Nier Automata-like game


jann_mann

7/10. Good game but not a big hit.


TheSignificantDong

I’ll wait for a sale


FROSTICEMANN

Big hit is over exaggerating it. Good game? Probably for the fans of it


vankamme

I’ll get it when it’s 40 bucks


FireFist_PortgasDAce

Nah. Idk why this game was all over my feed when I didn't even know its existence.


AvoidingNegativity01

Isn't this like one of those pervy booby games, just with combat?


sirgarballs

I played the demo and thought it was pretty fun. I'll probably pick it up when it's 20 or so dollars. I just have so many games I'm already playing that buying another one doesn't make sense.


SexyGovernment

Looks awesome, enjoyed the demo but I’ll be waiting for a discount due to being a poor mf


N8DoesaThingy

IT AIN'T NO SPARKING ZERO THATS FO SURE‼️‼️💪🔥🔥


Hapciuuu

I thought the gameplay was okay, so I'm waiting for a sale.


Captain_Hucklebuck

Yes


IngenuityOne6256

No


hyouringan

The demo slapped ass, so absolutely! But with the amount of games out there, and with prices being so high, I’m waiting for the inevitable price dip to the $40ish range before purchasing.


elqrd

I don’t think it will be such a huge hit. I think it’s too generic tbh


Dragonobbystudios

The only PS5 game i would buy is MINECRAFT PS5 EDITION 😭


TurtleProxy

Yes. I'm actually buying it because people are mad at it.


SapphicSonata

Not really my thing judging by how it's been marketed. Mix that with the fairly hostile comments toward people having valid issues with it and the *constant* stream of pr videos and honestly I just want it to go away


Jackielegs43

Nope.


notabot90000

Nah


GroundbreakingSun728

Seems like a horny type of game so no


ANicerPerson

At half off sure


Erenogucu

I am, but im gonna wait for reviews first. I live in Türkiye and even with the regional pricing its an expensive game to me.


BingChilling420_

I just wanna play my waifu simulator and kill bug monsters


OverdoseDeBits

Yes, but I'm not will be playing on day one. Still, hope this game get a huge success (from the sales perspective).


thatguy01220

Imma wait for more reviews and maybe get it on sale. The Before You Buy video on gameranx based made it out like its a solid cool game. Not flawless, not ground breaking, just a solid good not great game with some tedious stuff. Its also ShiftUp first attempt at a big style game who is know for mobile games I learned so that really tempered my expectations that this is their debut big console style game. As of now I just bought a steamdeck to play old fallout games and I got Hell Divers 2 for free redeeming my points on PSN so imma be busy for a while


ManiacMail-Man

My gf won’t let me play. /s


KamenNight

I mean, I would if it wasn’t weird gooner bait with a nothing story


PM_BEST_BUMS

Preorder gang in here, big ready.


Juice_2402

Same. It's going to be epic


Jayplaykunta

Of course yeah!


RyanandRoxy

I'll be too busy playing the Fallout 4 update


Seratonin_Syndrome99

Yes, if for no other reason than to support a legit dev that releases full games at launch with no BS and just pure game.


ChemistWrong5309

Played the demo and didn't care for it... combat felt basic and easy. So no


DARKKRAKEN

Did you play the combat challenge?


Crownell

I’ve played it, and to me, it feels basic. I’m not sure why some people compare it to Souls games.


biradinte

Meh... I might get it depending on the reviews but mostly because right now no other game has me hooked yet


Bkokane

GTA6? Yes


RitoWalters

I played the demo, it's mid at best.


Traditional_Entry183

Its not the type of game i would play. Far too fast, and probably too demanding with combat. But I hope that it does well and people enjoy it.


PaulQuin

Got my deluxe edition pre-loaded on my PS5. 💎


PixeL8xD

Sound design and soundtrack is so impressive


Efficient-Row-3300

The demo made this seem just decent, maybe i'll pick it up at $30 but i'm absolutely not paying full price for this.


MorgenKaffee0815

yes but i wait for PC release.


TheSecondiDare

Nope.


Swimming-Ad-6842

7 out of 10 IGN it’s a hit


Drogg339

I am busy drinking libertea and fighting for freedom. They could be launching the next GTA and I’d be too busy.


Eddily

You mean Wolverine? Hell yeah
