Alex freaking out when he connected the dots and started yelling YAKUZA after thinking for a while which developer would make better use of Nick Cage is my favorite beastcast moment of all time.
Apparently this is to SOTN what Axiom Verge was to Metroid. I hope that's the case.
Axiom Verge was met with similar criticism (looking too much like the source material) but over time it revealed enough twists to the formula to become its own thing. And it had an amazing soundtrack. And it was a VERY GOOD game.
@francium34: do people still rent games in this day and age? Serious question. Also, Kiwami 1 is pretty cheap, so even if they do, it might not be worth it in this particular case.
@schmancy_pants: Stardew Valley just added online multiplayer for free (a game that didn't even have local multiplayer to begin with). But I agree, I have no idea how many levels there are and how different they are from the ones in the first game.
Maybe I'm wrong since I haven't really played either of these games, but after watching quick looks for both, this feels like it should have been released as DLC for Overcooked 1.
I spent my childhood playing Streets of Rage 1 and 2 and I still love the atmosphere and soundtrack of those games but even I recognize beat'em'ups are bad and there is no reason for someone to release one in 2018.
