I don't like the artstyle and I briefly tested the game. Could not get into it. It really was not enjoyable. It felt like a third-person arena shooter from two or three generations ago. I don't give developers credit simply for doing something different. I give them credit for doing something well. A game about tickling butt holes would be different, too. If it's not fun, or even appealing for that matter, then it's not worth praise to me.
So there's nothing about drawn to death you think we should at least note for being different? I like developers to take risks and do new things otherwise gaming would become boring very quickly.

I would say doing something different is notable, but not something to applaud unless it's also done well.

Pretty much what Pi-Guy said. Being an edgy and violent game isn't different in today's world. Going with a retro gameplay feel has already been overdone this gen thanks to the ridiculous number of indie titles that already did it. The only notable thing about this game is the artstyle and that alone isn't worth applauding someone for. We have plenty of games that don't aim for realistic visuals. The best games this gen didn't do something different. They refined the elements they used. Stick me in a room with all of them and one thing I certainly won't be is bored. It's far more important that a game be good and appealing than different.

I've seen plenty of hot blondes to not be surprised they exist. Never saw a girl with a hunchback. Not going to sleep with one either if I ever see it. The fact that this game took about two and a half years to release after its announcement instead of 6 months is what killed it. It is releasing in a been-there-done-that-indie-game market that is salivating for the next big adventure or warzone thanks to big developers hitting their stride.

Yeah I agree with both of you. Have the previews been bad?

It has not been spoken of very fondly the few times I saw anyone bother to mention it. Critical reception could end up being surprisingly good but I very much doubt it based on what I've seen and played and what others have said or didn't even bother saying. I wouldn't call it garbage but I'd be tempted to take a bet where I cut my balls off if it ends up being anything more than decent.

Apparently there's a problem with the Persona 5 Take your Heart and Steelbook Editions on Amazon.com and they are cancelling pre-orders.

Oh don't worry, worst case scenario you won't be able to get the game physically for a couple weeks after launch.  ;)

Boogachoog comments on Amazon cancelling orders of Persona 5 Steelbook (PS4) because of supposed defect

He might be bullshitting of course.

Assuming he isn't bullshitting, I should be fine since I preordered the Steelbook edition, not the TYH edition. I was actually planning to preorder the TYH edition, but Amazon ran out of stock so I guess it was a blessing in disguise, lol.
