I wouldn't say hate, it's a fun game and it's very flashy and pretty. It just feels very different to DOJ, like it's inspired by Dodonpachi rather than being a Dodonpachi game itself. *Edit: I wondered if that was pure prejudice, so I just had a couple of runs to refresh my memory and it's actually even less like DDP than I remembered.KSubzero1000 wrote: ↑September 28th, 2019, 10:13 am The part that weirds me out is how quick you are to throw SDOJ under the DFK bus. I totally get your issues with DFK, but as far as I can tell, SDOJ is basically "DOJ with easy chaining - Anime Edition". Where's all this hate coming from?
It feels more like Danmaku Unlimited 3 than DDP. I like the glossy sheen and the crystalline, glassy, aquamarine vibe because it perfectly represents the game. There's not much weight or grit to the movement or shooting, it feels like you're just moving a sprite around the screen to me. Again, DU3 is a better comparison for the feel of movement and the weightlessness of the shooting. I actually feel that nominally linking it to DOJ is a bit cheeky, to be honest!
As I say, I do like it and I'm sure that superplay tier is very deep and so on but, at my level, it feels as shallow as it looks.
