CrossCode Review - The Final Verdict 

I feel like you must skip through all the side quests and secret chests to beat the game under 40 hours lol

@@Long1Shot Lmaooo true my addicted ass is going for all chest and side quest

is this game hard? i have never played these older style games before so just wondering if its hard since i cant be dealing with getting stuck.

@@xNSHD The puzzles can be hard, but the combat is pretty forgiving since if you die, you don't go too far back.

@@xNSHD Yes it can tyrn hard but don't worry, there is a part in the options where you can low the difficult of puzzles and so

What console u get it on?

100% Agree. The problem with it is if a video like this explains it I think it takes away that punch. It worked really well on me who had zero expectation of it, but once you know it's coming it's not shocking.

What? That isnt even a cohesive opinion or take. Elaborate please. As of now i get hte impression that you are upset at difficulty. Please let me know in a way that actually makes some kind of sense.

yeah, he's got a bit of that newscaster voice going on

Sounds like some kind of voice emulation.

Some kind of marketing tactic? Paid review?

@@edl4767 Just a paid voice actor.

Holy shit ai's are taking over videogame journalism😳😳

u juss don't know a good brain teaser when you see one, i honestly loved picking apart those rooms. made me feel very big brain.

@@dropdedgothish Plenty of great puzzles in the game, but it 100% became tedious at times. Still incredible overall, the puzzles were just overdone at times.

@@tschak5367 At times, yes. Over-all it was great.

@@dropdedgothish I too am in the same boat approximately, but being frank in the overworld some puzzles for chests could use some hints on where to at least start, because seeing an out of reach box that needs a set up 3 rooms down the line is frustrating.

I agree. Completely ruined the game for me

Me too

I'd give 10/10, it's my favorite game of all time and has been for 4 years.

@@virtueisdead It hasn't been out for 4 years.

Joseph Rowe Early access is what he’s talking about

Thomas Whitley no need to get mad

2. These party members can have unique conversations with each other.

I was able to play it flawlessly without the sliders until the end. By that point it was more about being annoyed by how unforgiving last few dungons are. With sliders for puzzles and dmg was a breeze. Its very beatable without sliders but didnt really feel like breaking my control on the 15th attempt on something.

First off: If you don't like platform style jump puzzles don't buy this game. Also while the game DOES have sliders to reduce how much damage you take/how often they attack, and how fast puzzles reset it it will only make the game boring when you realize how the enemy's are nearly all giant damage sponges. Think of this while watching the characters HP bar in this video, noting how fast you die.

@@Tabryne You gotta find their weak spot and use the "break" mechanic to stun them and make them vulnerable

They gotta save the higher scores for tlou2 😂🤦🏻‍♂️

Umm.. a 8 is still very good

8 means very good. Remember, basically anything above a 5 is essentially good.

Johnny Grafx you believe that I have stuff to sell you 😂

​@@Enigmalake It's not about belief. 8's are universally known as great or very good. Gamingbolt in particular specifies it on their website: gamingbolt.com/gamingbolts-review-policy

Don't know if you ever got back in but just in case, the game picked up rapidly at the end of Chapter 6, beginning of Chapter 7. Outta nowhere complete tonal shift that cemented CrossCodes story as one of the best for me.

Also, just gotta put this out here, I really enjoyed just vibing with the gang for the first half. Their character and the gameplay allows for the main plot to be on the back burner for a good while.

yeah for Celeste wasnt for me but hell crosscode just eats me up i start the game and hours pass by...

First of all, why would you compare it to Celeste? I think both are great games that are very complex and appeal to many types of players. Though, I think it just got unlucky with advertising. I never heard about it before I saw it on a youtube video. 2nd, though the game is incredible, the slow start to the story and the long dungeons will push some players away.

@@TryHardGamerYT Long? Nowadays 70-90 minutes dumgeons are considered long?

It seems to me less like RP1 and more like dot.hack//SIGN.

I think that was a really bad example. It's got the idea but the two are completely different. CrossCode uses the fact that it's a "game in a game" to add to its charm with dialogue. Basically, it doesn't just use the concept as an idea. Its a completely different world with an actually good story that will make you emotional once you piece it together.

@@TryHardGamerYT Doesn't really matter. Cuphead is awesome and I'm glad I bought it. CrossCode will be on sale again sooner or later and then I'll pick it over some other great game. We can only spend it once.

I played on pc and didn’t feel that, just gotta know how to exploit the weaknesses and you can get bursts of big damage

Then you've never played Yiick

i play it and i can say either they dont hit the weakpoint or they dont have good gear/level

Nah, I've played a decent way in on pc. Combat is quite fun and I didn't feel that was the case.

The trick is to exploit the elemental weaknesses of enemies and use the "break" function that stuns enemies and multiplies your damage towards them. For example, in the 2nd dungeon, you face this jellyfish enemy that takes up to a minute to beat just by attacking normally. But, [spoilers] (kinda) By using your basic attack to shoot their attacks back at them, you can break them and kill them in just 4 attacks

voice acting is cringe

You can put in the bonus code Best-VA to enable high quality voice acting! It's an April fools thing, the characters talk like action figures (repeated voicelines) but it's pretty funny.

Lmao wake up over a game? Unlike you I didnt pay for it at all. WAKE UP MY GUY games are usually free after awhile

I agree paying 3 times (isp, console multiplayer, and the game itself) is one reason I dont play games on consoles.

Jay Xan never paid more than once in 20 years of Xbox gaming

It's a single player game. Did you comment on the right video ?

It's a single player game. Plus, it does pretty well with prices. At least it isn't an EA game
