Yeah. And its fun to do. If its fun, is it really bad?
From a non casual gamer standpoint. Yes. From a concerned fan. Yes.
Platinum Games are just slapping different names around simplistic gameplay of every one of their games. It's like adding the number "2" without any content backing it up. There isn't much difference between the games and that's ridiculous. Button mashers getting high praise? Is that what we're doing now?
The game is interesting trash as far as I'm concerned. Yeah, it's bright, flashy, and it's in a version of the MG universe, but it's NOT worth the retail price if it's button mashy. Fun is an opinion. Like I said before, I started on Hard. Beat every enemy the same way and after I beat the game, playthroughs started coming out and everyone was doing the same exact things as I and others had been doing, including Sam D. It's actually infuriating to know that there's a perfect formula in beating this game.
I want Platinum Games to actually try, instead of these phantom difficulties. Because, if you're playing Revengeance and it's a one on one fight, you'll see that nothing's actually changed. If you're facing multiple enemies, then expect a bunch of cheap off camera shots. To those that don't know, if you record yourself playing MGR, and then review how you died several times, you'd see that 90% of the time it's from something you couldn't predict nor could see.
I've said this about DMC's difficulty as well as other games, so this isn't just me nitpicking MGR or Platinum Games.
Oh and for those that wanna experience what button mashing is, just place Raiden on that beach at the beginning of the game and mash his attack buttons.
My point is, it stopped being fun after I found the formula. (Wolf boss fight.)
I'd have loved to have seen a new MGR game but:http://www.gameinformer.com/themes/...a-denies-metal-gear-rising-2-tease&GroupKeys=
