@BrandonTjon Год назад

Some cool insight: I had someone ask Cyberconnect2 during their Panel in Paris a few years ago what the chances were of a Asura's Wrath sequel. The answer was the following: "We at Cyberconnect2 would jump at a sequel if we could and make it even more over the top than before, however we don't believe we'll get this opportunity". My friend at the time mentioned how there was sparkle in the eye of the spokesperson. It seems that the folks over at Cyberconnect2 are still very much proud of Asura's Wrath to this day.

Unfortunately, I've since lost contact with that friend, so I can't ask them if they ever figured out where it came from.

I'll say, there has never been a game that I regretted playing it late. I've bought Asura's Wrath in the latter part of last year, since it was always a game I wanted to try. But me not knowing what kind of game it was, I've always postponed that purchase. As I typically buy multiple games at once, I played Killer is Dead first (which is also a good game, albeit much less memorable). But once I started, I couldn't put my controller down. It went hard and I loved every second of it, only for me to reach episode 18 and being told I had to cough up 7 bucks to get myself the dlc. I've never in my entire life been this excited to buy dlc, but due to life I had to put it on hold for a couple weeks. But once I got back, it was like no time had passed. This is a game that you HAVE to experience.

Asura's Wrath was a superb game, centered on making you feel the story with everything collaborating on that evocation of wrath. But the DLC, no matter how you slice it, feels greedy, even more with the explanation that "it's like an anime OVA that finishes the story!". Mister director, everyone hates when the studios do that, we endure it because we don't have any other option.

This is an example of why I don't love Naughty Dog games, if you're going to make a game into something more akin to a movie, I think it's best to take it to the limit of creativity and take advantage of it actually being a video game. Asura's Wrath is going to be a movie? Make it the biggest, craziest, and most memorable movie that you can! Make it something that film can't really do! God I love this game lol

A lot of people who leave butthurt, defensive comments going "WHAT HAPPENED WAS IT WAS GOOD, END OF STORY" seem to have very short memories about these games they're getting so defensive of? You'd think if you loved the game so much you'd remember things like it taking 5 years to come out and charging $7 for the game's ending?

Omg I was waiting for the episode!

@deathsyth8888 Год назад

It's too bad they couldn't continue the Asura series with 'Asura's Envy', 'Asura's Greed', 'Asura's Sloth', 'Asura's Gluttony', 'Asura's Pride' and 'Asura's Lust'

I do remember hearing back in the day that another reason for the DLC was due to scope creep. Basically the final chapters grew so much in scope that they needed more time to bring them up to snuff. I don't know how true this is and I have no idea where I heard it from as it was over 10 years ago now (my god really? I am getting old) but I think it was a somewhat official source.

Asura wrath was really awesome and tons of fun

If I had a nickel for every time the studio behind Tail Concerto was brought in as an external developer for a game from a major IP that ended up on the show, I'd have two nickels. Which isn't a lot, but it's weird it happened twice!

It's a bummer how poorly handled Asura's Wrath was because it's one of my most cherished fever dreams. One of those games that I bring up and almost nobody knows what I'm talking about. Asura's Wrath and Brutal Legend are dear to me for that.

Honestly an old coworker was the one who mentioned this game 6o me. I hadn't heard diddly but after doing some research was blown away and in awe. I got it release day and loved every second of it. No doubt the dlc debacle was major ick but I did re-download it from pins classics and all things considered was one of the random ips tjat never made it big but still has a tiny little safe spot in my heart.

@SagittariusAyy 9 месяцев назад

Capcom, hear us…We want this game back. It’s time for Asura’s Wrath Complete.

@Dante-Balisk Год назад

It is puzzling why they would try dlc for a brand new IP. They should have set things up smaller at first so that it could be more polished and grow a fanbase, then save plans for a sequel to apply dlc to if the fanbase ever grew. I dont think dlc sells well unless enough time had passed for a community to form their favorites, like how some games have costumes that reference fan favorite moments from a prior game or fan favorite character. There has to be a demand created by the fanbase first that can be taken advantage of, somewhat like how the one dlc that may have succeeded was the one adding a bonus fight with Akuma because its a character from another series that has gone on long enough for people to have grown attached to a favorite character.

@kamenrangerzeo8251 Год назад

Every time Asura does his multi burst punch, I think of Star Platinum yelling out Ora, Ora, Ora. Although I did love the DLC that features Ryu/Evil Ryu and Akuma/Oni battle. 18:33 Maximilian dood cameo

My friends and I rented the game over a weekend. Although we didn't like the ending issues, we really enjoyed our "Wrath-athon". It was basically binge watching a new kick-ass anime.
