Keyser_Soze Posted June 11, 2021 Share Posted June 11, 2021 Looks kinda like Advance Wars to me, but with Metal Slug! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Keyser_Soze Posted June 11, 2021 Author Share Posted June 11, 2021 This is from the same dev who did Streets of Rage 4 and the upcoming Ninja Turtle game. They're just killing it right now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GameDadGrant Posted June 11, 2021 Share Posted June 11, 2021 Huh. Weird to take such an action-heavy game like Metal Slug and turn it into a much slower-paced tactics game. It'd be like, if you took some action-platformer game like say...I dunno, Super Mario Bros. or Sonic the Hedgehog and turned it into a turn-based JRPG or something. How ridiculous would that be, amirite? LOL. But whatever, I'm down for this. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bloodporne Posted June 11, 2021 Share Posted June 11, 2021 When I read "Tactics", I thought it would be like Shadow Tactics and Desperados etc. and got really excited. This still looks cool but I'm not a fan of turn-based stuff at all so I'll skip it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

crispy4000 Posted June 11, 2021 Share Posted June 11, 2021 One of the most exciting things I saw at the Games Fest show. Looks fantastic! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Xbob42 Posted June 11, 2021 Share Posted June 11, 2021 I remember being mildly excited for that Sonic RPG and ending up horribly disappointed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I didn't put a ton of time into it, so I don't know. I just know everything about it felt like a cheap knock-off, like an unfinished fake game or something. Oh god, I forgot that it was touch-screen controls. And that fucking beep-boop music for the first zone. The goddamn stock sound effects. Every single facet of this production turned me off as hard as possible. 1 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Paperclyp Posted June 12, 2021 Share Posted June 12, 2021 For some reason I really like that sonic box art and I was like, you know, a sonic RPG maybe WOULD be kinda dope. But that gameplay snapped me out of it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AbsolutSurgen Posted June 3 Share Posted June 3 Their last communication before today on this game was to make the difficult decision to "postpone game to 2023". And it's not made by a studio affiliated with SNK, nor do the developers/publishers have much of a track record. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Publisher has done Shredder's Revenge, Wind Jammers and SOR4 which brings a lot of confidence. The developer hasn't done much but so far it passes the eye test and looks a lot better than their previous work. Being postponed 2 years and not looking like trash, sign me up.

crispy4000 Posted June 4 Share Posted June 4 If it was a Metal Slug platformer proper I'd be more skeptical. But as a tactics game? I'm not sure it matters it's a lesser known dev. The game certainly looks and sounds Metal Slug, and that's one of the most crucial things to get right here. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
