Looks crazy as usual. I still can't shake the feeling this game is kind of a tongue-and-cheek parody of a lot of modern games designed to appeal to the "core" gamer audience.
Whole premise is like one big nerd fantasy. Otaku wins lightsaber on eBay and decides to become a killer with the help of moves he learns from wrestling videos. I know in an interview Suda saying Travis is basically a child in a man's body in terms of maturity. Like if Travis is a bit of jab at the "I'm Mature for playing M-rated games crowd”.
The odd jobs look like a joke on all the bitch work in a lot of games in general make you do. I’ve lost count of the games where you play some tough as nails bad ass whose stuck doing thinly veiled fetch quests, deliveries, and such for a large portion of the game.
Of course I’m just guessing all this on what I’ve seen in the videos, but the more I see, the more I think it’s kind of a big punchline. I think both Nintendo Power and IGN said it’s pretty funny, so I don’t think I’m stretching a whole lot.
Guess I’ll find out in February.
