Heh, yea saw you on it last night, or this morning or some time. Is it a first person fighting game or something? TBH all I really know about it is the name and that the art looks ace.
Just watched the trailer. Can't say I want to play it, but their logo is ace. Literally.
This falls into the category of design that I still haven't been able to define but doesn't attract me at all. Assymetrical? Too... earthy? Mythical? Not... geometrical? Can't explain it.
sorry to hear that omc. but it is quite a delightful game. its all melee based combat. with some ranged weapons thrown in. while at times can be frustrating when youre fighting 5 or 6 enemies at once, you have to be very strategic in who you fight first and how you fight them. (edit: i just watched the trailer as well. it doesnt do the game justice. watch some gameplay footage)
i, as well, when i first heard about it and saw it, was totally disinterested. but after hearing it be talked about and praised, by indie and mainstream alike, i had to at least try it. and i couldnt stop playing.
the combat is extremely satisfying. the world is colorful and very well rendered. the characters, while sometimes lacking, are brilliant. they are all voiced. no reading text. the story narrative is told quite well, and in the style of one of my favorite movies 'memento'. the game starts by you killing father-mother. everything is also just gorgeous.
all i can say is if you dont want to play and dont want to pay 20$, wait for a sale.
i'll be buying zeno clash 2 when it comes out. for sure. ACE Team is on my radar now.
