No More Heroes 3

التختيمة الثالثة للتحفة

its such a whatever game, like I feel nothing after playing this. its not bad but I cant say I "recommend it". Legit just play NMH1 and skip out on the rest of them lol. says alot that my playtime is bloated because I was more interested in watching my friend play something else than engage with this (mostly) boring game. (Runs fine after the first hour being weirdly ♥♥♥♥♥)

Game looks cool just not NMH cool and that mostly comes from the use of UE5. The combat is actually a lot less smooth compared to NHM1 and 2. Not a disappointing game but still underwhelming especially after playing the series back to back.

tenía bajas expectativas y al final terminó gustandome más que los primeros dos nmh

Lo he intentado,pero este juego es horroroso. Tiene todos los defectos de los hack n slash sin sus virtudes. Jefes esponjas de daño,patrones ultra repetitivos,mundo abierto que da pena. Encima el sistema de combos iniciar es ridiculo. En mi opinion,uno de los tantos hack n slash mediocres que salen. No pierdas el tiempo con este si lo que buscas es una jugabilidad como la de Devil may cry o Ninja gaiden. No es aqui.

ce platine est d'une souffrance rare

♥♥♥♥. I don't recommend

HHHH TRAVIS WAXITO RICO ENVEJECE CMO EL VINO ÑAAAUUUUUU HAZME MIL HIJOS

As much as I want to be kinder to this game for clearly trying to be creative and different and not just more generic serious business realism, I cannot honestly say that I would personally Recommend it. Owing to pretty much the same complaints you'll find in the other negative reviews, it was simply too flawed in too many ways to enjoy. And since Steam limits you to the two options, I gotta give it the dreaded thumbs down. Like others said, the game world is pointless, lifeless, and empty. It's just an unnecessarily large canvas for very unfun minigames, annoying completion lists with insufficient completion tracking, and fights that DON'T EVEN HAPPEN IN THE WORLD ITSELF. You just teleport to generic battle arenas that usually don't even have a conceptual connection to their hub world. Boo to that. And on top of all that, if you want to be a completionist, some battles are locked behind completing other content first, with zero in-game indication you need to do other stuff first before they will semi-randomly appear at all. Which means unless you check online to figure out what's going on with certain battles NEVER appearing where the game's established pattern says they should, you can end up doing a lot of repeating already tedious battles for absolutely nothing. And what possible reason is there for just randomly replacing the unique encounters you actually want to do with the same repeated, overly long space battles until you redo said space battle? just make the stupid space battles their own dedicated encounters, it's like the game was being obtuse and annoying on purpose with that stupidity. And even when you get into combat, it's not like the combat is very good in the first place. Jumping is useless, dodges are overly limited, enemies get way too tanky by the lategame, beam recharging gets old, and the only time you feel powerful is when you get literally random power-ups. Death Glove powers break things up a bit, but even thy don't do nearly enough and take too long to recharge. Speaking of recharging and enemies taking too much damage, those are of course things you can upgrade. But the upgrade system maxes out too low compared to how far the enemies progress by the end, and you hit the cap too early in the game overall. And that's without even making any effort to intentionally grind for money. Say what you will, but I absolutely love meta progression, and games just aren't as fun anymore when you don't have upgrades to look forward to. And for the final combat complaint, the alien enemies, which is to say, almost ALL the enemies you'll be seeing, don't even look like they belong in the same game as the human characters. Travis and the rest may be stylized, but it's a... naturalistic anime-ish kind of stylized. A good kind of stylized. Most of the aliens, on the other hand, look like they're going for that REALLY oldschool nearly abstract pre-rendered 3D vibe where everything was heavily based on simple geometric primitives like cones and spheres and such, and it just looks... bad. Real bad. Again, I guess it's cool the devs tried to do something very different from the increasingly generic realism that has been infesting game visuals for like, twenty years now, but different in a bad way is still bad. Really, the closest I can come to being positive about the game is that the visual creativity in regard to NON-interactive content, like the fake commercial intro and outro bumpers and retro anime style credit sequences between chapters, was kinda cool. But you know what would be way cooler than that? Actual gameplay that looked and played better, that's what. Aside from all that, not even the plot really did much for me. I'll admit that it absolutely did not help that this was the first No More Heroes game I'd ever played, but even then, I feel like sequels should put more effort into onboarding new potential fans than this one did, which is to say, virtually none. There seemed to be no effort to summarize what the deal was with returning characters or to generally establish how the world worked or anything like that; either come in with past game experience or try to figure it out as you go. As such, I had no idea if confusing stuff was intended to be confusing, or would make sense to long-time fans, or were mysteries waiting to be explained, or what. Characters like whatever the heck "Juvenile" was were mentioned like they were surprises with zero context or follow up, and I generally had no idea how seriously to take stuff or how to contextualize weirdness like Travis's brother getting chopped in half and killed, but then almost immediately showing up perfectly okay again? Then killing Travis and Travis just waking up in his own grave just fine? Is that supposed to make sense? Is unexplained weirdness like that just the series' modus operandi, don't question it? As a player starting here I have no idea. And I get that Travis earns assassin rankings by killing his way up the ranks, but how do the badguys get THEIR ranks assigned in the first place? And why are they so okay with just waiting for some guy to show up and kill them? Doesn't seem like a necessary or inherent part of their previous jobs of being Fu's minions. I could go on, but the point is, I feel like the game played by its own rules that it assumed you already knew from the past games, which makes the weirdness hard to roll with when I don't know what the game's "normal" standard of weird even is. The game's also a real slog if you're cursed with completionism, too little actual compelling, unique content is spread waaaaayyyyy too thin and repeated far too much if you actually want to be able to say you did it all. I rarely say this, but NMH3 really would have been better off for trimming the artificial length fat entirely rather instead of spreading it out to about an atom thin. Making a good half the Death Glove chips require overly rare boss drops, and including so many "unique" but extremely repetitive battles, for example, was not a choice for the better. On the up side though, the game only crashed once on me the whole time, so that's... one technical strength, at least. The visuals were strikingly underwhelming in every way even for a game of its age, but at least it was stable. Still can't recommend it for that alone, though. In the end, unless I can be convinced his other work is drastically better, this was probably the beginning AND end of my foray into the world of Suda51 games. Even after giving the game enough of a shot for full completion, I'd give it a 3/10, would not recommend. Could have been a solid 5 with simple changes like extending the upgrade tree further and not stretching out what little content there was with so much tedious repetition. It's not like the core combat mechanics were THAT bad otherwise, just... everything else around them.
