Forums - Sony Discussion - WKC is the New Heavenly Sword...

White Knight Chronicles is the new Heavenly Sword. These were games that were destroyed in reviews, yet the general fanbase of those who purchased it adore the titles.

seems to be the case.
Fans will be fans regardless it seems.



PS One/2/p/3slim/Vita owner. I survived the Apocalyps3/Collaps3 and all I got was this lousy signature.


Xbox One: What are you doing Dave?

Heavenly Sword was actually reviewed fairly well. Its sitting at a comfortable 79% on Metacritic.



Odd. Future. Wolf. Gang. Kill. Em. All. OFWGKTA Don't give a fuck!

Fuck Steve Harvey. FREE EARL!

Final Fantasy Versus XIII will be the GREATEST game EVER made!!!

I'd take a bullet for Square-Enix!

True but the overall consensu from reviewers (and basically anybody that hasn't played it) is that it was a 'disappointment' . I agree, HS was awesome, borrowed my friends copy and it was great (ending especially). Hopefully WKC is as good as non-critics say because I plan on buying that sometime.

When HS came out there was SO much flak for it's control scheme, shortness, and easiness(COMPLETE LIE). WKC is catching a lot of these same nit picks. The controls may not be the most intuitive but they work, Easy, it is not if you actually do high level fights or dont's just run through the game Reviewer style.

I never noticed, because at the time, I did not interwebz as much as I do now. I do remember people complaining about the Sixaxis being pointless and the game being short though.

63 vs 79 on metacritic. Seems a pretty big gap to me.

minus ten percent.



"Naturally the common people don't want war: Neither in Russia, nor in England, nor for that matter in Germany. That is understood. But, after all, IT IS THE LEADERS of the country who determine the policy and it is always a simple matter to drag the people along, whether it is a democracy, or a fascist dictatorship, or a parliament, or a communist dictatorship. Voice or no voice, the people can always be brought to the bidding of the leaders. That is easy. All you have to do is TELL THEM THEY ARE BEING ATTACKED, and denounce the peacemakers for lack of patriotism and exposing the country to danger. IT WORKS THE SAME IN ANY COUNTRY."  --Hermann Goering, leading Nazi party member, at the Nuremberg War Crime Trials

eh, there is a pretty big gap actually and if heavenly sword was just longer they would have increased the score a lot.  I mean you're pretty much paying $10 per hour of game. 



currently playing: Skyward Sword, Mario Sunshine, Xenoblade Chronicles X

I agree to both.  I liked Heavenly Sword a lot even though a lot of reviews were negative.  And I'm loving White Knight Chronicles--definitely addicting and time consuming.
