So is Kinect confirmed for this or what?
I think enough time has passed since my so-so feelings on Wolf 2 that Iām ready to run around Paris as BJās southern fried kids.
Also sounds like they had Arkane pitch in, which oughta be pretty good!

yes yes yes
sooner than expected
Besides all the FUCKING, thatās a cool trailer. Carpenter Brut didnāt hurt. I still liked Wolf 2 even if the level design was a lot weaker than 1 so Iām definitely on board.
Hell yeah, hypest trailer of 2019 for that alone! I just wish that Carpenter Brut, Mega Drive and Perturbator are all going to be in Cyberpunk 2077. Mega Drive being my fave. Synthwave needs to make it big time

I feel bad I donāt like Shovel Knight! Especially because by all indications I should love it. Something about it just feelsā¦off. Unenthusiastic. Itās hard to put into words.
And this trailer gives me the exact same vibe. Gorgeous, technically perfect, just ever so slightlyā¦sterile despite all attempts to not be?

I felt the same way, though I admittedly liked the Plague Knight expansion a lot more. I found it a lot more interesting and compelling overall, (maybe mostly cause I liked moving around in it more).
That said, I kinda dig the looks of this. I feel like the kind of genre of NES-era platformer this oneās riffing isnāt as thoroughly homaged as that which Shovel Knight did. So Iām interested.

I super enjoyed Shovel Knight and I thought it felt immensely enthusiastic and full of love. Hell, Iād have been happy to play a ____ Knight expansion for the whole gang.
That being said, with The Messenger still fresh a Ninja Gaiden-y vibe doesnāt really have the same luster Iām sure theyād like. To me though, theyāve already earned a supporter for whatever they come out with.
(Iād be lying if I said I wasnāt disappointed nothing came of their poll asking for what kind of game people wanted to see next and included an option for āLandstalker cloneā)

Yeah Plague Knight is really good, definitely a cut above original Shovel Knight and Specter Knight, even though I for one enjoyed those as well. Iād recommend anyone picking up the game for the first time play Plague Knight first.
Shovel Knight is an inarguable modern classic and I feel dumb for having ignored it for as long as I did.
How much, if at all, are any of the Shovel Knights devs directly involved with Cyber Shadow? Looks cool. Looks real cool.
Lots of dark+/techno ninja ether synergy going on sekiro nioh 2 the messenger cyber shadow bleeding over into contra and blazing chrome everybody getting real gritty and slashy
honestly getting more a shatterhand vibe from this than ninja gaiden
it looks so much better than shovel knight. I donāt hate shovel knight, I just think itās boring. I thought plague knight was boring, too!
die mad about it!!

I donāt think thereās anything wrong with shovel knight. itās very polished, good looking, well made. I just felt nothing after playing the whole thing. maybe Iām the real monster here :(
i loved Shovel Knight, and this new one looks like a great cross between Ninja Gaiden and Contra. iām here for it.
I still havenāt played The Messenger, even though it seems like i might like it, but i was off hearing about how long and drawn out it sounded
