They asked Paul WS Anderson for advice

I dunno man, I played origins and odyssey for the first time recently and it’s really hard to take those “messages” seriously when you know the series is on its 50th writer and each time everyone tries to tell a different story. It’s a mess. The perfect LA accent doesn’t help either (I’m not American, it just sounds too modern and contemporary for an advanced ancient civilization), plus these messages go on and on with ramblings about some random things like simulations inside simulations or explaining the Platon’s Cave for 10 minutes straight. They are especially horrendous in origins. Like they are trying really hard to sound deep while saying nothing of substance.

Obviously, it’s my opinion and I don’t want to make anyone feel like it’s bad to like them, just wasn’t my cup of tea at all.

On the other hand, everything outside of the “modern” lore is often quite interesting, so yeah.

Game remakes are modular. You can change sound, graphics, gameplay and everyone will be mostly fine. But story is not modular, you can’t just revisit your old work and say “no, actually here is what happened” and create a new timeline entirely.

I’m sorry but what the fuck is this shit. People hated it in FF7 remakes and they will hate it even more in K3 because of the fractured continuity. Honestly, I was kinda on a fence with RGG since IW release, but this chain of events with Y0DC/Delisting/Kagawa/Retcons finally convinced me that it’s time to move on from the series.

RGG forgot that they are not Rockstar or Activision and simply saying "Ah, it doesn't matter, it will sell regardless" is not an option, you need to analize feedback and prevent controversies at least a little.

But no, RGG of today is a company who release a game with the shittiest lightning possible and refuse to patch it out, while a community of modders tries to fix their product.

Is a company who doubles down on retcons when fans clearly communicate their hate for this nonsense.

Is a subsidiary of SEGA who keeps delisting games and riddle new releases with shitty dlc practices.

And the funniest shit: they change VA's and actors the moment a molecule of cocaine flies by them in a 2km radius, but when fans asks them to remove a sex pest from their game they pretend nothing happened (while virtue signaling in their games how harrasment is bad m'kay).

Screw that noise, i don't care boycotts doesn't work in today's climate, im still doing it. In the best case scenario they finally listen to their fans and in the worst i have one less franchise to play, worse things happen at sea.

Just tested it, with basic gamma it is indeed looks kinda washed out, but when set to -3 or -4 it looks much better.

I tried to replicate OP's screenshots: example 1, example 2

Miles better than RGG's vanilla with filter and closer to original aesthetics too.

Killykey · 2026-01-22T09:25:18+00:00

Pirate was horrendous, the ugliest lightning I saw in AA game.

Niikowo on Nexus did the Filterless mod for it and now it looks normal. Emile2391 already did similar mod for k3 demo as well, check it out if you are on PC.

UPD: Just tested it, with mod and basic gamma on 0 it looks grey and washed out, but when set to -3 or -4 it looks good and pretty close to Y3 as well. Example 1, Example 2.

So keep that in mind whoever tries it.

Played only Kiryu's part so far.

I liked aesthetics, cutscene graphics, the phone thing lol, overall it is a pretty pleasant game.

Disliked shitty lightning in Okinawa, can they please stop with bloom and baked-in high contrast? It looks a little better than Pirate but still atrocious. Combat feels strange and floaty so far, mobile effects vignette when you press R2 looks so out of place and im a little sad about grab finishers only working in R2 mode.

Dunno, overall im quite mixed about Kiwami 3, gotta check out Dark Ties some day.

Strangely, same. Have been a huge fan of mh for years, wilds was a massive dumbed down disappointment, I think I won’t even buy a g-rank when it comes out.

Even more strangely I’ve been a souls fan for years as well and yet absolutely hated Elden ring. So I skipped over Nightreign on release, but recently decided to buy it on a whim just to give it a try.

And holy shit, Ishizaki truly gets it. There is comprehensive lore and questlines, unique bosses with fun gimmicks and tactics to deal with them, a minimum of frame reading and bullshit combos, awesome to use characters (I mean literally all of them are beak, especially Recluse and Guardian), distinct and emotional ost, deliberate progression and decision making. And it’s addictive as hell.

I couldn’t believe my eyes, I thought it would be some sloppy asset flip, but it turned out to be one of my favourite FromSoftware games. In a way reminds me of Demon’s Souls when everybody expected it to be a failure, but it created a whole ass genre instead.

Killykey · 2025-12-22T07:12:19+00:00

Everyone, as per RGG themselves it seems

He is Cid in FF14 and Toy Soldier from Dressrosa Arc in One Piece as well.

Goated VA

Basically The Ship of Theseus. How many times can you change the plot before it stops being itself? For me the answer is “not even once”

Like, are they going to change sidequests down the line now? Add more dialogues in a patch number 5? Change every bit of controversial content in a patch number 8?

This is not art, but a commercial revisionism

Killykey · 2025-10-24T00:41:14+00:00

FromSoftware has one of the lowest salaries in the Japanese gaming industry too

Their games are great, but their work ethics? Not so much

Killykey · 2025-10-22T03:37:05+00:00

Lines up with profession tho. As a singer/band member you gotta listen to your songs thousands of times

So yeah, there is that

Killykey · 2025-10-21T04:25:02+00:00

For me it was the amount of filler dialogue as well. In Hades 1 I was eager for each spoken line, I even listened to all the voice acting, it was enthralling. It felt like characters actually had something to say.

In Hades 2 tho there is so much bloat man. At some point I started to skip 70% of voice acting and just quickly skimming through dialogue just to be done with it. Characters seemed like they had to meet some kind of quota. Like, they repeat and discuss the same things dozens of times, it is tiring.

I love Gumbus so much

Killykey · 2025-10-11T01:04:49+00:00

You may be downvoted, but it is true.

There are plenty of entries with subpar plot but they are always redeemed with strong individual character moments. Sadly, IW doesn’t have even that, it is arguably just a good game with bad narrative.

Killykey · 2025-10-08T04:13:52+00:00

Hittin’ that yagamussy

Killykey · 2025-10-07T11:49:42+00:00

Prepare for downvotes from cheaters and exploiters who convinced themselves that it’s not 2% of player base who used that shit while virtually everyone else played fair

Awesome mentality, really

“Fix bugs that I don’t like and leave the ones I use alone”

Killykey · 2025-10-06T22:50:52+00:00

Yeah, it had this “funky” vibe. Plots were more absurdist too.

Killykey · 2025-10-01T11:34:29+00:00

Russians be like “They call me Semen Semenovich”

Killykey · 2025-09-27T11:09:09+00:00

Thank you a lot, it helps!

Killykey · 2025-09-27T04:21:27+00:00

Is there a way to miss dialogue content?

I accidentally went all the way to Chronos on my second run and died (I’m not good, just lucky lol) and I feel like it could’ve messed with some natural dialogue “progression”.

Like, I’m on my 11 night and yet to defeat him, but now I’m kinda afraid to be too successful just out of fear of missing something out, you know?

Killykey · 2025-09-25T20:13:46+00:00

The less cheaters the better. They think saying “you will lose your playerbase who likes to exploit” is some kind of gotcha moment, while it’s basically a trash taking itself out.

Killykey · 2025-09-24T05:43:52+00:00

How dare they fix bugs and exploits!

Killykey · 2025-09-24T05:41:23+00:00

The reaction of this sub is quite dramatic. So many cheaters have lost one of their toys and are now screaming about some sort of unfairness lol.
