Hi-Fi RUSH |OT| The Evil Ry-thm

In light of what we now know, this article from March of last year is real interesting:

I especially like how Mikami all but says Hi-Fi Rush wouldn’t exist without Game Pass:

In recent years, commercial considerations have meant that we have had to develop in large teams. However, thanks to the emergence of game subscription services over the past few years, we feel that it is now possible to make games on a smaller scale.

They are the vein of my existence in Every souls game pass Dark Souls 1, where it’s super easy to parry. Hopefully I won’t get too beaten down.

The one thing he got me thinking was that technically, we got Scalebound, just without dragons and now in cel-shaded.

If the impression is this strong, he will be very motivated to do more and more.

I hope he was happy to see the Streamer mode option being brought up as soon as the game started. The fact that the options was the first thing that was brought up was refreshing because most games, just want you to start it and then go through the options to adjust to what you want.

Yet to play the game, but judging from people’s opinions of the game, it is safe to say that Mikami made the right decision to allow the devs to experiment more with different type of genres.

Its refreshing to play a game which is very polished at release. No bugs or features missing, just a very decent release of a very cool game.

The parrying mechanic is so much fun. Game just keeps getting better.

I like the concept of this, but so far I’m really struggling with the rhythm, and it’s kind of annoying me. Haven’t played that far, but kind of wish there was a way to slow down the rhythm just a teensy bit so I could hit it better.

Takeaway, I think I’m getting old. :pensive:

the game helps you massively with this; no matter when you pres your first hit, it will always hit on the beat, meaning once the first hit ha landed, follow that beat to make it hit harder. if you press the square button a wee icon appears that should help with finding the beat as well.

I’ve got the icon and have been talking to all the fridge/smidge and practicing in the world, but it honestly doesn’t help that much. And I get it still hits but it’s depressing not being able to get better scores. I still wish I could make it a little slower.

This feels like one of those really obvious articles they put out just to generate clicks from the occasional googler. A whole article to iust basically end with the word “no”. Like those articles that are like “Everything we know about Elder Scrolls 6 release date!!” And then the answer is “we know nothing about elder scrolls 6 release date”.
