Platinum Games (Bayonetta/Metal Gear Rising) making new TMNT game? - Page 28

If achievements have leaked that means the game is already finished. They're just sitting on it.

What if its released on May 31st? that's on the same week before the movie.

As long as we get a completed game without the bugs and crappy controls ala Out of the Shadows i'll be thrilled. It's well worth the wait as long as they produce a quality product. The last thing i want is a rushed product in order to release the same time as the movie. I've been dying for a good Tmnt game since Turtles in Time.

Totally agree. If it's a broken game, we may not get anything good geared toward the comic crowd for a very long time. I hope this game breaks the mold of mediocre TMNT games and we get more good sequels because of it.

The game won't be broken, its made by Platinum, people.

What I'm worried about is it being very short. Sounds like it'll be something like a 4-5 hour game on one playthrough.

Shred87 · 02-10-2016, 05:27 PM

Hmmm... For comparison sake how long is Arkham Knight in terms of hours?

Arkham Knight? About 20 hours, longer if you try to collect all the Riddler trophies.

*myconius* · 02-10-2016, 05:42 PM

or a LOT less hours if you immediately get fed up of all the mandatory Batmobile levels and abandon it like i did!!!

*CyberCubed* · 02-10-2016, 06:56 PM

Anyone who thinks this game is going to be more than 7-8 hours at the most obviously must not play many Platinum Games. Their games are designed to be short because you're expected to replay them multiple times. Their action games are all below 10 hours on the first play through, the only reason the hours rack up is because they expect you to replay them on higher difficulties or for certain challenges, etc.

Who are you saying this to? You're the one who's worried about it being 4-5 hours.

The guy who asked about the comparison to Arkham Knight. I think a lot of people here don't realize this isn't going to be a long game like the Arkham games.

Its going to be a short action game probably no more than 7-8 hours long on first play through. If its similar length to Bayonetta 2 that's probably being generous.

*Coola Yagami* · 02-10-2016, 10:04 PM

I'm still gonna wait til the game is actually out. Guilty til proven innocent.

7-8 is fine for an action game with lots of little extra challenges and replay value.

I had a total blast with Spider Man: Shattered Dimensions recently. It was fun but not very long, but it was the kind of game that sincerely made me want to play each level multiple times until I mastered it. Unlocking bonus outfits, new moves, finding all the hidden tokens, beating higher difficulties, doing speed runs... in some games, I don't bother, but everything was just the right length in that game and the levels varied just enough to keep repeating the whole thing engaging and not a slog. It took like 8 hours to beat, but I probably put 40 into it so far and there's still stuff I haven't done yet that I want to. It's a simple but fun and awesome game that felt about "perfect" in length.

That's just an example. Anywhere from 5-10 hours for this kind of game is Just About Right, really. Like Cubed said, the idea is to play them more than once, and have it be As Fun or More Fun the second or third time, not just the same exact thing repeated. Bayonetta is another great example.

I'm not concerned about length; I'm not "concerned" about anything, really, it looks great to me, but while having the game be a "complete" experience of respectable length is obviously important, it's really more important that the gameplay and controls are tight. That's another thing about games like Bayonetta or Shattered Dimensions, they play so smoothly, it's even easier to WANT to play them over and over again, they're so not-frustrating, and combined with a nice "moderate" length, it makes replaying them an inviting experience.

That's what I'm hoping for. Something 5-12 hours that plays smooth with lots of replay value. I have good feelings so far.

The game would have to be big if they are including 4 player online coop.
