Who needs replayability in their shmups anyway

Re: Aleste is coming back?!
Replayability usually refers to replaying the same thing, not playing a different branch.
Re: Aleste is coming back?!
I don't hate Hard Corps. Sure, it's good, but I think it's pretty overrated and there are other good Contra titles out there. And that's all I'm going to say about it.Strider77 wrote:Hard Coprs hate = lame and off topic

But it is the same thing? No matter what branch you take you're still playing darius or the objectively coolest contra game.Sumez wrote:Replayability usually refers to replaying the same thing, not playing a different branch.
I agree, it's overrated as all hell, but it also happens to be really damn good.xxx1993 wrote: I don't hate Hard Corps. Sure, it's good, but I think it's pretty overrated and there are other good Contra titles out there. And that's all I'm going to say about it.

Re: Aleste is coming back?!
xxx1993 what have you done Now I've got to fight Strider IRL for my mint NTSCJ copy to see whose BATTLE SPIRIT CLOTH is best
There is some value in bringing up (THE) Hard Corps here, as circa 1993 Nobuya Nakazato was very much all-in on the "branches = XTREEM REPLAY" mindset. I respectfully differ with the old master though. I'd prefer a single, carefully calibrated course meant for gradual mastery and performance play over time. Yeah the noobs will "one and done" it, but FUCK EM. Easy to say when nothing is on the line I know. The man's gotta eat.
Branches can surely work but you better not waste my motherfucking time, and by that I mean keep standards up across the board and GET THAT JUNGLE BOSS OUTTA MY FACE YOU MOTHERFUCKER Again THC isn't the best ambassador of the approach as frankly it needed tightening up / shuffling around to meet its full potential.

Re: Aleste is coming back?!
It use to be overrated... now it's just shit on whenever it gets mentioned these days (in here). Which it doesn't deserve, especially with things like Legacy of War farting around.I agree, it's overrated as all hell, but it also happens to be really damn good.
BIL, was it your copy of HC I bought off here (years ago)?
Damn Tim, you know there are quite a few Americans out there who still lives in tents due to this shitty economy, and you're dropping loads on a single game which only last 20 min. Do you think it's fair? How much did you spend this time?
Re: Aleste is coming back?!
Nope, only MD game I ever sold on here was Dahna and even though it's kind of a crummy game, I regret even that. My copy is on sale for the low price of CHOKE ON EM dollars and PRY IT OUTTA MY COLD DEAD HANDS cents.

Re: Aleste is coming back?!
Overrated or not, Hard Corps is still amazing and the best Contra game.
That's a fact, you can look it up.

No, that is NOT a fact. It's just an opinion from people like you. Know the difference between fact and opinion. It'll be sad if you don't.DietSoap wrote:Overrated or not, Hard Corps is still amazing and the best Contra game.

Might want to start, as you've now got at least one mod's undivided attention.

I really shouldn't have brought it up... I'm completely derailing this entire topic. I'm not gonna post anything else on here until September 7th.

Re: Aleste is coming back?!
Thank you. I was worried I wouldn't be able to find anything because none of the gaming sites I usually go to haven't posted anything yet.
Re: Aleste is coming back?!
Boy I sure do love machine translations
I assume it's because M2 didn't send out a formal press-release and journalists are lazy asshats that were too lazy to compile the info themselves, but I dunno. Could be totally wrong on that.xxx1993 wrote:Thank you. I was worried I wouldn't be able to find anything because none of the gaming sites I usually go to haven't posted anything yet.
Re: Aleste is coming back?!
I seriously hope that isn’t the only info we have, though. I was expecting some details about the plot, or maybe a trailer.

Famitsu has a report on the event that includes some new info on Aleste Branch: https://www.famitsu.com/news/201909/09182913.html
The somewhat strange long nose of the ship design is now explained by the weapon power up which mount alongside. They look cool!

Keeping your games sealed is like keeping your ass sealed when you have to take a number 2. Not natural.

Re: Aleste is coming back?!
The idea sounds great on paper but that nose still looks dumb even with the weapon mods surrounding it

Don't worry about it. You can travel from the Milky Way to Andromeda and back 1500 times before the sun explodes.

Re: Aleste is coming back?!
I'm actually feeling excited with this more than R-Type Final 2. I just can't wait to see what more they have in store for this.
Re: Aleste is coming back?!
First a new R-Type Final game announced, and now a new Aleste game.
