Bets with Conegamer:

Pandora's Tower will have an opening week of less than 37k in Japan. (Won!)
Pandora's Tower will sell less than 100k lifetime in Japan.
Stakes: 1 week of avatar control for each one.

Soriku, wanna make a bet? I say that the game will not sell more than 100k LT in Japan, that it won't be released in the USA and that it will be a game in the vein of Samurai/Dinasty Warriors.

...Did you play any of the Earth Defense Force games? This is not a reasonable bet!



@Khuutra: I just saw a couple of videos. It's like Dinasty Warriors, but in a city and using firearms.

So.... by "like Dynasty Warriors" do you mean "there are a bunch of enemies to kill"?

Because by that logic, Painkiller or Doom are also like Dynasty Warriors



so we are just waiting for cosmic walker now right?

@khuutra: No I mean mindless shooting at generic, almost identical enemies that come in hordes. Instead of people they are giant ants.

Seriously, there's no reasonable way to compare the combat dynamics of this:



With this:



The combat dynamics are nothing alike. The enemy crowd dynamics differ drastically, as does the crowd control method utilized as a result; EDF has a huge focus on environment destructibility while DW does not, the bugs can attack from places that aren't the ground....

EDF has more in common with Painkiller than with DW, and I expect the same of Dynamic Slash.



They are the same genre, the same mechanics. You just go around awaiting for hordes of enemies to come towards you and mass kill them. Nothing like Doom, where the levels have a format and you have to follow waypoints and you fight a very limited amount of enemies. This game is essentially a modern Dinasty Warriors game.

At this point I'm not entirely sure you know what "genre" and "mechanics" mean in this context. Killing a lot of enemies does not mean that they play anything alike: they don't. You can tell jus from watching videos. You don't even have to play to know!

Huh...Earth Defense Force looks nothing like DW O_o Where's the armies, where's the the crapton of enemies on screen? 5 big enemies or something doesn't make it seem like DW at all.
