God Hand

This convinces me Anon Babble couldn't recognize kino even if directly exposed to it

it's just one urban reign schizo
pay him no mind
his game is even more obscure than god hand and he's forever mad about it

he can't guard break

You literally just press whatever you have the guard break move assigned to to guard break, it's not some highly technical part of the game. It's not even technical on higher difficulties where it's harder to land.

Nothing about those webms is fun or cool or interesting. Enough of this brony tier irony game.

you should stop pushing gay console wars, urban reign is also a very good game everyone should play.
looking back one of my first PS2 games were God Hand, Urban Reign and DMC3, truly an insane gen.

watching is indeed kinda boring just like those juggle dmc/bayonetta/hack slash videos but actually pulling off is very satisfying.

on higher difficulties it's slightly technical since you need to be cancelling the guard break's recovery to not get your shit annihilated
but regardless you'd be surprised how many people just don't understand the concept of guard breaking in god hand
and even more people never grasp that landing a guard break gives your next attacks more damage and extra properties

console wars

Urban Reign is on the same console and is painfully mediocre, both of which are irrelevant to the urban reign schizo shitting up threads
Those webm's are specifically ng hard kms strategies. 99.99% of players will never even attempt the difficulties that make them necessary.

99.99% of players will never even attempt the difficulties that make them necessary.

Which is the only reason the game is enjoyed. The scaling difficulty and constant checkpoints allow retards to button mash. But at a high level the game is an absolute mess of anti-fun bullshit. Clearly not playtested at all.

games certainly were a lot more imaginative back then, huh.

I know you have to cancel the guard break's recovery because of how often you just have to throw it out not knowing if the enemy will be guarding or not on higher difficulties, but I wouldn't really say that's a technical feat, it's just a bit of knowledge you'd only have from playing on Hard or regularly reching DIE.

I feel like if I were trying to tout some hard-to-do technique in God Hand I'd just say HSK loops, not that they're that hard either, but they're hard enough that you can drop them sometimes even if you know what you're doing, you're probably not ever going to accidentally not dodge out of your guard break's recovery because the execution of it is too difficult.

No one has ever claimed God Hand was "good" or a "quality" game - but it is an incredibly fun one that focuses on pure gameplay and requires you to git gud from the very start.

And yes, I can post on Anon Babble as I hold the segmented world record, you cam find it on YT.

not playtested at all!

It's the complete opposite, anon.
Mikami and one other designer were the only ones allowed to give feedback because Mikami was making a game for himself.
Most of the more challenging/frustrating stages are literally Mikami and that guy fucking with each other.

In terms of mechanical difficulty I'd say the hardest thing to do by far is kick loops on female enemies. You can give yourself a little leeway with PERFECT positioning but in normal situations where you're right up against the wall it's a frame-perfect input for every kick and duck

I hold the segmented WR on youtube!

lol cheater

Most of the more challenging/frustrating stages are literally Mikami and that guy fucking with each other.

Sounds like fanfiction to excuse the obviously shit design.

I don't really like looney tunes mixed with my action game, sorry. It's just not my thing.

Post your gameplay, anon. I did.
If you don't want to watch the whole thing then just watch Stage 4 and the final fights on Stage 9. I'm the one who invented the second phase Devil Hand skip and you can see it in action for the first time in the video.

I'm a huge cumgargling faggot

weird flex but ok

Post your gameplay, anon. I did.

Every webm posted is my gameplay
you're a cheater AND a liar
pathetic
here's another trick you definitely don't know because you're a cheater and a liar
at least you can say you learned something today

max level gameplay is just exploit spam

Biggest indicator of a terrible game.

interested in god hand speedruns

check youtube

filled with "world records" that are clearly cheating, including infinite god hand, infinite health, and every attack doing a billion damage

check official leaderboards

there's no one to verify runs because the last mod abandoned the game after he found out people were using OPL to fuck with item drop rates

feels bad, man

The game has no actual scene because it sucks.

Which is why my old-ass run on YT is the only segmented run that matters - it was on a stock standard PS2 slim. Yes, some of those segments took hundreds of hours to get those drops.

It has no scene because it's exceedingly difficult on top of heavily RNG-based (heat cards multiply your damage which is pretty fucking big if you're going for speed) and what scene did exist got pissed off by the rampant cheating

I don't know why you're still bothering with this lie but segmented runs have never mattered to anyone, ever

game catches on in Brazil, India, and SEA

community leaders almost immediately abandon the game as it becomes a complete cesspool

dumbass is too dense to understand that the run was done back when segmented runs were actually valuable as they showed a benchmark of what was possible without tools

The run is fucking ancient, anon. Like "built in the time of the pyramids" in terms of speedrunning evolution.

I feel like these kinds of action games suit other forms of challenge runs like no damage or NG hardest difficulty more than speedruns anyway

No damage in God Hand would be boring to play and to watch because enemy behavior is heavily random and there are many enemy combos that can checkmate you into taking damage. You'd have to play incredibly slow and careful.
There are "no damage" runs on youtube but they're very obviously cheating with save states or outright invincibility pnachs

No damage is actually hilariously easy (just Drunken Twist spam) but no one wants to see that for 60+ minutes...

Okay but if you find it fun why does it matter what other people want to see

Well that is the problem, it isn't fun to spam cancel Drunken Twist for over an hour.

drunken twist spam only works on certain enemies and isn't available until stage 6
you're not getting through whip it or flying pyramid or death shudder without getting hit by spamming drunken twist

shit, forget even reaching whip it, you're not getting past gold and silver trying to twist spam

I was just spitballing ideas, with enough knowledge of a game you can usually come up with a unique challenge run that’s fun to play. My point was that not all games suit speedrunning, but people still try to fit games into that mold.

You don't need to make up a challenge for god hand, KMS is in-game
On stage 1-2 you start with a kick me sign on your back and it flies off if you use god hand or roulette
It's fucking brutal, especially on a new save.

God Hand is Dark Souls levels of obtuse without a wiki for people to look shit up on

do well at the game

game gets harder

fucking why? if i'm doing well, the game should be getting easier.

Because that way shitters can still faceroll through the game while actual beat em up/fgc players can have a real challenge. It also provides incentive to improve so your monkey brain can go "oooh level up!"

If you can't handle the higher levels just pick easy mode or grovel

i still havent beaten godhand at hard mode
the gay niggas kicked filtered me

Just wait for them to go do their combo attack and dragon kick them

its not pic

The ultimate truth nuke is that if a game is good, it gets a port/remake/remaster.
Games that don’t receive any kind of modern updating are unanimously agreed upon to be shit.
Even if publishers and devs won’t do it, fans will.
So because God Hand has none of those things, it’s agreed to be a relic and not worth playing at all.

I beat it on hard just spamming dodge and yes ma'am kablam and activating god hand. I don't think I launched anyone once.

No one has ever claimed God Hand was "good" or a "quality" game

I do

God Hand was built on a custom engine with no documentation and published 60,000 units
I doubt they could remaster/remake it if they wanted to

There are a lot of games I haven't played and even more that I haven't beaten. I'm working my way around older titles and maybe I'll get there one day. Mixing in the infrequent new game can delay me too.

Runs like ass even with emulator. I would've played it if it had a proper PC port.

I gave up on doing normal difficulty KMS at the three evil stooges rematch in world 4
Dropped it to easy and breezed through to world 6 before I got distracted
Fun game, I fucking hate the demon form bosses and the stooges so much it's unreal

guard break / launch / etc

The real difficult shit in this game is gitting gud at counter-hits so you don't have to screw around with stuns or guardbreaks or sweeps to handle crowds at level DIE

You're doing too much.

Runs like ass

My brother in Christ what ancient fucking toaster are you using that can't run pcsx2
My phone can run it

Input lag is my issue, it lags like crazy

PCSX2 hasn't had input lag issues in years
You're either using an ancient build that's literally a decade old, running the game on a powerpc, or you seriously fucked up your configuration

Optimal frame pacing.
Turn it on.
If your UI doesn't look like this your build is older than the pyramids

Grim. Even the face of the game Milk Koba is riddled with controversy. Game is cursed with secondaries and cheaters.

This.

Cheating and stalking aside mike hasn't been relevant since the somethingawful days

I'm sorry jewish cartoons are a core part of your personality
