Necropolis Preview | GameRevolution

GR:
The visuals of Necropolis are the first noticeable element of the game. The visual style began when the art director decided to remove all the textures from the lead character and then all the textures from everything else. Then they decided to remove faces and feet. Removing hands, they discovered, was a step too far, so your avatar still clutches whatever weapon they have in hand. Thankfully, this minimalist approach, which calls to mind an underworld version Journey or Legend of Zelda: Windwaker, freed up resources to create realistic cloth movement and animations that would have been too costly if they'd had to texture everything.

Why You Shouldn’t Play Necropolis From Your Backlog

Backlog Critic: "Necropolis is a huge disappointment in my book. It is a game that received so much praise and hype before it was even released that it could only fall flat on its face. The fundamental core game design failures make this game feel too much like a bad rip off of Dark Souls, however, if you are planning on playing this with friends you are going to get an abundance of more content and enjoyment out of this title."

My last paycheck was $2500 for working 12 hours a week online. My sisters friend has been averaging 8k for months now and she works about 30 hours a week. I can't believe how easy it was once I tried it out. The potential with this is endless. This is what I do >> http://bit.ly/2C5JZ3f

Only ever played DSIII but would love to get around to the other ones at some point

Babadook73488d ago (Edited 3488d ago )

The only one I haven't played is ds iii. The article gets it wrong. Bloodborne is the best overall. Best story (by far), best art design and music. Best level design. Best combat (single player). Dark souls 1 and 2 are best at pvp.

Irishguy953488d ago

I've played all Souls games including Demons...But I don't have Ps4 yet :'(

Needs bloodborne

Eiyuuou3488d ago

Please don't present your opinions as facts.

Thanks.

Babadook73488d ago (Edited 3488d ago )

^^
If I was actually presenting a fact, which I wasn't I would have pointed to reviews which would show bloodborne as the best reviewed and most awarded souls game.

I find it odd you would say I presented opinion as fact when I merely challenged the reviewer for doing exactly that. He even goes as far as to tell people to 'buy a 360' to play dark souls. sounds fishy when PlayStation is actually the only place where you can play all of these titles and there's no advantage to the 360 version according to DF. No wonder his quote-unquote opinion is so one dimensional.

Exaclty my thoughts as well. Why advice anyone to get the console that doesnt have the best From software games- Demon's souls and Bloodborne? Weird...?

Edit:
Now that i think about it is From soft and Sony crazy? Why on Gods green Earth we dont have a Demons Souls and DS1 remasters double pack on ps4 yet?

Bolts3488d ago

Bloodborne have absolutely shit build variety. DS3 is basically Bloodborne meets Darksouls, the best of both worlds.

Babadook73487d ago (Edited 3487d ago )

@UltraNova
Yah From is weird like that. Lol.

@Bolts
Yah. Souls games have great variety in builds but after three games (DeS, DaS I & II) everyone knows how the game breaks wide open with the bait tactics and or ranged weapons. Bloodborne is less varied but more nuanced and forces you to be more dynamic with enemies. I find it scarier and more fun to actually engage them face to face.

I never cared for Lords of The Fallen. Bloodborne is probably a better game than any of the DS games IMO.

FITgamer3488d ago

LOTF mechanics are too slow and clunky. I couldn't get into it.

UltraNova3487d ago

Yeah me too I couldnt convince my self to complete it. Something felt wrong and incomplete...

sullynathan3488d ago

Lords of the fallen is a bad game, I'm only playing it because its free on PS Plus

Bolts3488d ago

ToF is basically an abortion of a game. Everything about it is either half assed or incomplete.

Kashima3488d ago

If PS4 get DS1 re & DeS re it will be the ultimate souls machine.

KingKelloggTheWH3488d ago

DeS is stil my favorite. So dang cool!

robtion3488d ago

Don't forget Nioh. I think between Bloodborne and Nioh the ps4 is looking pretty sweet to any true Souls fans out there.

michaelpb3488d ago

Yes, Salt and Sanctuary! Great round-up.
