    Aw man, no subtitles in Korra

    Already docks it a few points

    This is a pretty big unacceptable oversight on the developers' behalf.

    They are alienating an entire demographic of players who don't listen to their games while they play them.

    I'm sure the subtitles would have probably just been the lyrics to "Rules of Nature" anyway.

    Some gamers are deaf. It's always nice to have subtitles.

    edit actually shot at chincy aside not having subtitles sucks because a) deaf people probably play games? and b) sometimes I just can't clearly hear what the hell people are saying and subtitles are super useful for that

    So sad I pre-ordered the X1 version of the game without seeing that it was coming out a day later for some reason.

    Jokes aside, even if I did care about game music (which I don't), if I only played games when I could have sound I straight up wouldn't have time to play games

    I get about 2 hours a day available for video games they are also the only 2 hours a day I get to see ms chilla. So we sit around and watch a movie and talk, and I play games in the background

    I'm not anti-sound but there are plenty of people beyond even the obvious (deaf) that find subtitles pretty necessary

    I like subtitles in games most because sometimes the audio mixing is weird and its hard to hear things over the music/sound effects

    Man we've been hitting the horror movies pretty hard lately over here and BOY do you need subtitles

    I only played the first two levels, not enough to form an opinion

    It seemed easy so far, my only real issue is sometimes targeting would turn on even when I didn't click the stick

    Very pretty game though

    Did platinum only have like 3 months to develop the game or something, it sounds devoid of content beyond a basically functional combat system

    My guess is it was either a very small team or they had a limited amount of time or both

    Again, this is a 15 dollar downloadable game made by a studio that has previously made only disc based products

    I wouldn't be surprised if they got the combat system done and went oh shit now we only have x amount of dollars/time left

    Cause project management is hard

    From what I gathered in the review the reviewers main complaints were.

    - The plot is rather weak and barely any of the characters make an appearance
    - There isn't too much variation in the combat as far as enemies go and all of it takes place in similar arena-like settings.

    Which I will admit does sound a bit disappointing.

    But I already paid for the game and it was only 15 bucks so whatever.

    basically it sounds like people were expecting a full platinum game and not a $15 downloadable title

    it seems perfectly reasonable for what it is

    Yeah I mean...those aren't inaccurate complaints.

    But the game is 15 bucks, and the bending is fun and looks cool so I'm happy with the purchase.

    I think its worth pointing out there are plenty of 15$ games with full narratives, diverse combat and interesting bosses

    I'm not sure why any of those complaints merit a 3 and a 4 on any review scale though

    That's usually reserved for games that are just fucking broken, not being disappointing based on previous expectations.

    I mean review scores are bullshit but still

    Like price does not excuse those design failures

    It may, however, be worth it to you personally at that price but it doesn't make those things not a problem
