    Hey!
    André Fonseca, Principal Programmer on Tales of Kenzera: Zau here!
    Thank you for playing and discussing our game. We hope you liked it.
    As for the letterbox bug, it was one of those nasty ones that crept in at the last minute and we didn't notice. Should have been fixed on the day 1 patch.

      @BasketCase-rr7tx 2 месяца назад +5

      @@SaiyanABlazeNinja I think the problem is that he has very limited knowledge of games (because as he admits he doesn’t play that many) and seems to hype all the ones that he does know about. Which is kinda weird, especially when he often hypes games without even realising they are worse versions of games that are already out (obviously not talking about Hades 2 here).

    • @SaiyanABlazeNinja
      @SaiyanABlazeNinja 2 месяца назад

      @@BasketCase-rr7tx I have no idea what you mean. I play way more games than Tim (presumably) & I've learned so many things about them from him over the years. He especially has a lot of deep knowledge about games we all played as kids that I haven't even heard from "Did You Know Gaming? videos". And part of your comment is what I don't understand about people, how can you criticize him for liking & hyping games he knows about just because you know of similar games that you like better? He would probably still like the game he played versus the "better" one because he plays them for fun & enjoyment not to play the highest rated game on the charts. He rates games more emotionally than critically and that's how he reviews them & there's nothing wrong with that. He's the heart of the group for that reason.

      @@SaiyanABlazeNinja He often talks about games as though they are unique and groundbreaking when they aren’t. For instance when Jedi Fallen Order came out he talked about how he had never experienced a blend of combat, short cuts and the way checkpoints worked and thought it was an original experience. He had no idea that he was literally describing a souls like.

Even if I thought of a different game that did something first that Tim mentions he experienced for the first time in a game he played, I would be like "oh cool that game has it too" instead of "what just play Dark Souls it's the best!"

    There are so many games I want to go back and play but Hades is a big one especially before the release of this new game. Really looking forward to the new challenges and struggling through the runs again hahah
    Stellar Blade is one I hope to get to eventually, the combat mechanics were really tough for me in the demo, but when I finally learned the patterns (similar to Souls games) I got it!

    I've been waiting for Greg's review on Sandland I knew it would just be a basic Anime cash grab.

      I'm also very confused by that. Flipping between the sun and moon powers in the middle of combat to chain together really strong combos is super fun. I'm not a metroidvania guy at all (I'm trying to get into the genre) and in having just as much fun with this combat as I am with Prince of Persia. I'm only about 1.5 hours into Tales of Kenzera and I am hooked.

    Mike, TopSpin isn't Mario Tennis. It's a realistic sports sim. Someone else should've handled this review because you're reviewing it for what it's not, instead of what it is, and what it is, is what everyone who loves TopSpin has been begging for, for over a decade.

    I don't mean to sound like a hater. But as somebody who loves Akira & Anime most of the time you can just tell these games launched by Bandai Namco are going to be basic, a chore style game, and probably not worth your money. It just sucks when I see people not familiar with the formula getting bamboozled by Bandai once in a while the last thing I wanted to mention is the blatant way you can tell these games are made is how Andy, & Greg said that characters blurt random dialogue 6 times every 4 minutes that's because these companies just QA the game to make sure everything works nothing breaks & then ship it out to gullible fans, there's no flow state check or anything that games more worth your time do for testing.

      Couldn’t agree more.Only thing worth a damn is anything in the musou genre. And to be fair it’s not like those games are breaking the mold so I would still file them under the serviceable category. Really a shame to see with such incredible and almost endless source material.

      @@gumgumleobazooka Lol I love that you have a One Piece profile too so you know where i'm coming from. Cause I felt this same way when One Piece World Seeker came out. That was the closest I ever saw potential for an Anime game to be a AAA masterpiece and thanks to Bandai Namco it was sized down to be a bland open world game. Like you said so many amazing ideas to pull from & somehow they make every single game from any Anime feel the same.

Some bugs are expected should be expected but when you’re telling me there are significant bugs it should reflect your game. There is a point where you should be offering me a product that functions as it is supposed to
