Message: [QUOTE="qw90700, post: 334750, member: 660650"] As a person who loves the beat 'em up genre a lot sadly there is no decent such games much for me. While Sleeping Dogs is one of the good ones it still "not that good" for me due to the way you can't customize your combos which is what I think as must feature in any such games. In that regard no game can beat God Hand and then Absolver in that regard. That being said beyond these games this topic makes me realize I only like a few games' beat 'em up combat: Streets of Rage series, River City series, Kenka Bancho Series (especially I like combat of the PSP game) and Remember Me... No other game rings a bell at all. So people may say "dude didn't you play Sifu and Yakuza games????" and I would say their combat is boring and leave at that. I did play lots of games in this genre, even some random indie Indonesian or something school simulator-like beat 'em up game that I don't even remember its name but nope. At this time and age when such games doesn't even have customizable combo sets they better don't release these games and I will say the same thing for hack and slash games too. The year is 2025, if you ask for AAAAA price then you better make sure your games won't be "lack of feature" like a NES game. Get your shit together video game industry!!!! lol. Unlike how they believe "these dudes love RPG genre therefore no matter what kind of BS we develop they will buy our games" the reality is it doesn't mean people will buy game mindlessly just because they love the genre, but on the contrary because we love the genre naturally our expectation will demand significantly different in good way games that is nothing like tons of games we played before. I admire anyone who develops games of beat 'em up genre, but just making the game generic combos without any customization whatsoever cannot sell in this time and age for me at all. Such games died for me the moment I played God Hand. Set God Hand the minimum bar you should pass to develop beat 'em up aspect of games, otherwise go work at McDonald's instead because it's what your brain can handle lol. [/QUOTE]
