Forums - Gaming - A more intelligent look at Devils Third

So the storie is atrocios, the gameplay is atrocious, the framerate is poor, it has graphics that are arguably on par with a ps3, and there's plotholes galore, but it's funny sometimes... Is that really what makes you want this game? Looks awful to me. I don't know how these two videos convinced you on it. It looks like it's trying to be Metal gear rising, but it does so horribly.

I still don't understand the hate. This is the first title of a modest developer. Is all the hate coming from the fact that Nintendo is publishing it? I still see a really fun game.
Its sad to see this general reaction from people in the internet especially when the game wont be out for another month and these impressions arent taken from the final build. Anything Nintendo seems to be an excuse for hate. Very disappointing to see things getting this low.

I am starting to think that instead of a range of opinions people live in a binary world, the game is "best thing ever" or "pure garbage", looks like it cannot be something in between because it does not compute in their minds. I see it as a flawed but fun game, trying to offer something different in a console that lacks variety in some genres and themes. I am planing to buy it and get 2 or 3 friends on board to get on with the multiplayer.

True.  I don't get all those hate or absolutely a gem game.  a somewhere in between decent or average and trying to do something different to the Wii U owners is a good thing to have.  I don't know how would those non-Wii U owners really put too much effort to say it is pure garbage but they don't even own a Wii U to begin with. So why it is hated so much.  The hate was even before there was a PC version for the multiplayer.

Now we would see how it panned out on PC, especially anti-Nintendo gamers won't have it saying the worst exclusive game of the year and so on and so forth. 

I'm interested in this game, hopefully if they are still fixing something or polishing those glitches I saw, that would be great.  Will get a better picture once it is released in Japan and Europe and see the reviews on the final product.

Can we just leave it at a bad/mediocre game? I wish Knack had this kind of defence ;)

Well, to be fair I recall some people claiming Knack was superior to Super Mario 3D World...

Might have been in the context of sales but otherwise they would've certainly had been trolling

So... Is the Devil's Third going to be 'The Order 1886" of the wiiU?


A technical showcase for a console? Not even close. If the Order was plagued with technical issues, looked subpar, probably but no.

Here is the correct analysis from the footage:

Story is Ninja gaiden crazy style as expected.

Gameplay isnt atrocious. It doesnt have next-gen animations for sure but its trying something different. This is really impossible to judge without playing the game, but nothing that is see looks atrocious.

Framerate isnt always a constant 30fps and these are not final builds. Its not poor, but its not pristine either. Its very playable and hardly noticeable from the footage i saw.

Theres plotholes on alot of games by the dozen. Doesnt make them bad games. Depends on how seriously they are taking themselves. This games isnt taking itself seriously. Its meant to be a crazy fun game.

What makes me want this game is simply that it looks crazy fun to play. That is all.

The difference is that The Order actually got some praise for its graphics, got released and has a 65 score on MC. No, it won't be the WiiU's The Order 1886.

I think it will be more like the 'Drive Club' of Wii U. Panned at launch for its performance issues, but if it is ever patched people will sing it praises on deaf ears.


Also, no. You could actually play DriveClub in single player. Also. DriveClub was more than patched - lots of new stuff has been added.



Oh I get it now, people who thinks the game looks like trash aren't intelligent!

Along with my expectation, I think I could enjoy it. Ninja Gaiden crazy is missed, one of my favorite game of all times is No More Heroes and the plot is bonkers on that one.
