Things usually just fail to go my way :( (Except when I hack, but that's another thing....) Sure a game like this is going to have its share of what most would call decent ryona moments, but I was really more interested when I heard about the knockdown mechanic. Watched a few of the newer ryona videos now that its been released on consoles other than 3Ds, and yeah, I'm disappointed. Not because its necessarily bad, but because I feel like the game cheats me.
There are two kinds of knockdowns. One where Jill is laid out flat on her back(you know....the proper way), not unlike what happens to girls in Resident Evil 5. The second, her feet are gingerly swept from beneath her as she sits up on the floor....
WHY OH WHY IN HELL IS IT THE SECOND ONE THAT REQUIRES MASHING TO RECOVER FROM!!?
I mean its not even logical! It doesn't make fucking sense!!! A BIG BLOW to the head lays her out and she kick flips up in less than a second, but if she get's swept lightly to the ground, she sits there like she's fucking impeded... >:|
To me its like being invited to somebodies house and shown one whole chocolate cake, and one chocolate chip cookie and the host offered me the cookie....just....the cookie...
