IGN might have a brain or two. Maybe not…
Game is great experience, punishing but forces you to adapt to its harsh world.
Haven't been this intrigued at a game since Hollow Knight. Buy it.
anyone know the soundtrack from 0:00 – 1:00
Coming from the same ppl who ripped on Gris, I think I'll go with my gut and buy this
get gud
Why are they calling this a Heavy Rain review??
I think they had that guy who couldn't get past the tutorial for cup head play.
Game looks and plays terribly
"one of the best 2d games", score 6,3
WTF?
2 minutes of review??????
This game reviewed poorly all around and even though I love it? I don’t blame reviewers for a second. This game was always going to be kryptonite to them.
Weird flex, but ok
IGN is a joke
ign 6,3=garbage
How is the difficulty a downside here and a game like Celeste gets a perfect 10?
"one of my favorite 2d games"
6.3
unique
Punishment of a loss is not a con unless it is unforgiving to your hours of progress.
Yet this punishment is still forgiving.
Without the punishment, there is no encouragement to prevent you from dying.
OKAY.
Seriously though I agree with everything this dude says. There's no sense of progression, and the game punishes massively for slight movement fuckups and even things out of the player's control.
Seriously this game kinda sux, you have like the most horrible tutorial and by the time you figure it out it gets repetitive and boring, they should have made the checkpoints easier to acquire and the controls get frustrating along with the slow speed of the slugcat, I don't even understand why they have a level up system when all it does is unlock an area , and it's so easy to level up you just eat and hibernate , it's pointless, be cooler if it had like a double jump and then you unlock a faster speed or some claws/poisen
Terrible Review, Beautifull game for sure and not even annoying.
“Everything about this game is perfect, but it’s too hard, 6.3” – IGN, 2017
6.3 cuz its so hard? its not that hard u guys are just noobs
Then a couple hours in something clicked -chris cullen
honestly this just explains the entire game, it's amazing, but when i started it i despised it because i was bad at it.
wow, i did not expect to change them to change the genre of this from heavy rain.
if I, a 13 year old with absolutely no good gaming skills can beat this fantastic game, then, ladies and gentlemen, so can you. Rain World is actually really good once you get gud and learn how to play the damn thing. (Buy it and so your research and it'll be your new favorite game)
Usless review. Game much more deeper then in this video. And game difficulty – good factor for me and for many people except me.
Agreed. I tried out the game myself and I really wanted to play it but the controls were honestly too clumsy for me to enjoy the gameplay. Instead of playing as a cat, I sometimes felt like I was herding one.
Ign are bad at videgames
Oh, it's hard? Well that's survival sweetheart! In real survival, you may die from things that are beyond your control and you'll need to "grind" again and again for food.
Your criteria of difficulty is too subjective. This game poses a real challenge for once! So don't give it such a low mark because it keeps you from whizzing through the levels. Deal with it!
So it's a "okay" game just because it's hard and "unfair" I expected better from you IGN!
This game combines stealth, survival, and even shoot-em-ups
*throws spear in horizontal trajectory*
Truly the Metal Gear of pixelated survival.
0/10 too much rain. They should cut out all the rain and just call this game, World.
why tf are they reviewing heavy rain
Frankly rainworld is awesome and fun. Not only that but just look on gamepidia if you are stuck or want to figure an enemy out. It's hard but just play hunter mode and then you can say that hunter mode isn't fun (it is fun but also outrageous) then come back and tell me that normal is to hard. Oh and they have an easy mode now
Git Gud Scrub.
I love the game. If you hate the controllers, get an xBox controller with an USB cable. C'mon, I'm sure you can afford it with your almost 9 million subs
