I had a blast playing this hack'n'slash game, fast-paced gameplay, looks good, great soundtrack and overall very fun! ;)
[h1]Reseña del Videojuego The Initial: El Inicio del Final de Tu Tiempo Libre[/h1] [h2]Resumen[/h2] [p]Si alguna vez soñaste con hacerte poderoso no por comer espinacas, sino repartiendo golpes y hechizos en un entorno estéticamente impresionante, ¡bienvenido a The Initial! Prepárate para embarcarte en una aventura donde tu habilidad con el mando (o teclado) es lo único entre el éxito y la pantalla de \Game Over\ que verás más veces de las que te gustaría admitir.[/p] [h2]Aspectos interesantes e importantes[/h2] [p]Vamos directo al grano: los visuales de este juego son un festín para los ojos. Con un estilo que parece mezcla de anime futurista con un toque de arte digital, te mantendrá pegado porque, aunque lo niegues, somos superficiales y nos gusta lo bonito. Además, la dificultad promete no solo desafiarte, sino probarte hasta el último nervio. Perfecto para quien guste de retos difíciles y no solo un paseo por el parque.[/p] [h2]Aspectos por mejorar[/h2] [p]Aunque visualmente es impresionante, la historia parece escrita por un estudiante de secundaria en la noche antes de la entrega del proyecto final. Vamos, que a veces los clichés sobran y podría ser más envolvente. Otro detalle es la música que, aunque cumple su función, no te hará sentir que estás en un concierto, sino más bien en un ascensor algo pasado de moda.[/p] [h2]Tabla de Evaluación[/h2] [table] [tr][th]Categoría[/th][th]Puntuación (0-10)[/th][th]Comentarios[/th][/tr] [tr][td]Jugabilidad[/td][td]8[/td][td]Fluida y frenética, pero prepara tus dedos para el workout.[/td][/tr] [tr][td]Dificultad / IA[/td][td]9[/td][td]Aptas para masoquistas y amantes de lo brutal.[/td][/tr] [tr][td]Contenido[/td][td]5[/td][td]Suficiente, pero no esperes una enciclopedia de diversión.[/td][/tr] [tr][td]Video / Gráficos[/td][td]9[/td][td]Visualmente delicioso.[/td][/tr] [tr][td]Historia[/td][td]3[/td][td]Meh, no esperes un Tolkien.[/td][/tr] [tr][td]Ambientación[/td][td]7[/td][td]Coge buenos elementos, aunque a veces se siente reciclado.[/td][/tr] [tr][td]Efectos[/td][td]7[/td][td]Sólidos, pero nada del otro mundo.[/td][/tr] [tr][td]Música[/td][td]4[/td][td]No será recordada ni tarareada.[/td][/tr] [tr][td]Voces[/td][td]6[/td][td]Cumplen sin destacar, como un actor secundario.[/td][/tr] [tr][td]Diversidad[/td][td]7[/td][td]Es variado, pero podría mejorar.[/td][/tr] [tr][td]Total Puntuaciones[/td][td]65/100[/td][td]Sobresaliente en algunos aspectos, mediocre en otros.[/td][/tr] [/table] [h2]Conclusión de Compra[/h2] [p]Puntaje Total: 65/100. Compralo con descuento. No te sientas culpable si esperas a las rebajas, la calidad gráfica y la dificultad pueden justificar la adquisición, pero la historia y algunos otros aspectos quizás no justifiquen el desembolso immediato.[/p]
一开始玩的第一感觉,20块买了个垃圾游戏,这什么玩意。通关后习惯了操作感觉还可以,但是关卡少,地图都差不多,敌人种类太少,堆怪严重。但是战斗系统做的很全面。建议有兴趣直接玩2
动作太僵硬了
Soft recommend. A decent hack and slash for a good price and it's about two hours in length, offering tougher difficulties if you fancy a challenge. However, there's little variety in enemies to fight. Aside from the boss battles, once you have completed the first level, expect the same mobs and formulae for the rest of the levels; walk down hall, enter secluded area, defeat mob, rinse and repeat. The boss battles at the end of each chapter are the only real sprinkle of variety. That being said, the gameplay flows very nicely and it's impressive from such a small group of developers. I enjoyed the time I spent playing it, but I wouldn't play it more than once.

这游戏不算优秀,但也没那么烂,但也称不上拔高以上级别,毕竟这一晃也是五年前的游戏,那个时候这游戏可是30多块钱呢,现在可能也就剩下10几块钱的本钱了,像这种小众游戏已经算是合格了,都已经带有手表了,你还要啥自行车阿?而且还这价位的游戏,已经很不错了,打击感,特效,已经不输给其他角色扮演游戏了,虽然还是比不过什么尼尔纪元啊,破晓传说啊,刀剑神域什么的,你也可以去挑出一大堆bug啊和穿模啊各种毛病什么的,尽管你看不好这个游戏,但你也总不能去否定一个玛丽罗斯,死或生粉丝向的同人作品吧?
This is one of those in between a thumbs up and thumbs down games. It's clearly made by a small team and a small budget. With that in mind, its a pretty decent sort of arcade/arena hack n slash. There are only about 5 different enemies in the game, and a decent number of moves in which to kill them with. Though some of the combos are pretty long, and I didn't even try to remember them. If you don't like repetitive hack n slash games at all, this isn't for you. I didn't get bored with it myself, because the game is quite short. So you can complete it long before getting bored. This game should be great to play on a controller, but for some reason the trigger buttons don't work on the steam controller, and I can't set them to any way I would want them. Though I am not sure if this is because of the game, or the crappy new interface Steam has for controllers. So after an hour of fighting with that, I used a keyboard, which was fine to play on. As for the actual combat, it reminded me of Kingdom Hearts a bit...but like a polished tech demo of one of the earlier games in the series. It's not bad by any means and plays quite smoothly and is satisfying. Just imagine you're playing as a sexier version of Kairi, and instead of heartless, you're fighting sexy women. Heck, even on of the bosses is basically Yozora, with one red eye and one blue, but in the body of Tifa from FF7. She'll even kill you as fast as Yozora if you're not careful. But she looks so yummy that it's okay. The pink-haired girl I played as though...her panties did not match her dress, and that bothered me. Overall, this is a short, decent game. Not really worth 10 bucks, but definitely worth a look when on sale. Oh. And the translations are rather horrible. But there isn't enough story for that to bother me.
远程小怪强行打断攻击非常影响游戏体验,有点恶心心了 大多数时候连招都搓不完,就被打断。必须先处理远程才能回来安心对近战小怪打桩,属实有些繁琐。 BOSS那个魔方男做的什么玩意儿?正面攻击全格挡,反手就把玩家打硬直。玩家只能拉距离,等其读远程技能的时候再出手输出。交互性实在有待提高。 目前玩了一半流程了,着实有些缺乏继续玩下去的动力。就算解锁了连招,实战里用起来也不那么香,游戏提供的正反馈很有限。 虽然校园、美少女、机甲、未来科技、刀剑等等元素堆在一起看着卖相很不错,可实际玩起来体验很难恭维。
Super janky and rough around the edges, but you can tell the devs actually tried a little bit. The protagonist is the long lost twin sister of Marie Rose. The combat system is not very deep, but it's functional and looks flashy, which is super important for an action game. Can get a little repetitive with the small enemy variety, but the campaign is short and there are multiple playable characters in challenge mode. Definitely nothing special but if you're a fan of Ninja Gaiden, Onechanbara and Metal Gear Rising, you might get a couple of hours of enjoyment out of this. Also, the classic light blue striped panties, visible at all times. Gotta respect it.
