Beautiful stages, and the 2nd one had me think of a throwback to Delta except we're dealing with a Bydo-Infested Ship. A pity there's no new boss themes, but the theme in the Bydo Factory (Stage 4) is quite funky :P The Machine Base boss strongly reminded me of also previous R-Types but with a hint of Gradius this time too!
Yes, I felt exactly the same when I saw stage 2 as well. As for the bosses, I loved the design of the stage 1 boss but really would like Granzella to make big strong cool machine bosses.
R-Type did I first played on C64 in my younger days, when I was 17 years old and in 1994, when I was 23 and had then a Amiga 500 I played R-Type from that machine. I did also played R-Type from Arcade, when visiting a game house/aparment. Before I had Mame32 in mine previous Laptop and PC, with lots of game and R-Type 1 and 2 was some of the game I played there, but also Gradius I, II etc. I have also had SNES with lots of games in my previous PC/Laptop playing R-Type III etc. PSX or PS1 as emulator in my previous PCs/Laptops I have had also before playing R-Type Delta and other games. On my still PS3 I have Gradius V, R-Type Dimensions, Söldner-X: Himmelsstürmer and Söldner-X: Finale Prototype. I have not a PS4 or PS5, but I want to by one of these Game console one day to play these new R-Type games ☺ Before I had PS2 emulator in one of my previous PC and Laptop and there I played R-Type Finale ☺ I though R-Type Finale 2 from 2021 was the very last R-Type and no new R-Type Finale should be made. Then I hope the peoples behind the game Gradious can develope Gradious VI ☺ Because I still have Gradious V in my PS3 ☺
Many of the games mentioned reminded me of great time of my childhood. I'm a big fan of Gradius, Darius, Thunder Force, and R-TYPE and had great time playing R-TYPE, Gradius IV, Darius Gaiden, and G Darius at the video arcade. I loved to play shmups on consoles such as Super R-TYPE on SNES, Thunder Force V on Sega Saturn, R-TYPE DELTA, and Gradius V on PS2 which could play PS1 games too. Choosing from PS4 or PS5, I would definitely recommend PS5 since more companies start making games PS5 exclusive including R-TYPE FINAL 3 EVOLVED and you can play PS4 games with PS5 as well. I really hope KONAMI will make Gradius VI in the future. Gradius is one of the best shmups of all time.
I love the soundtrack at the end..Reminded of when I played Macross from PS1 w Minmei singing..It should've been at the last stage while fighting the boss..I can't wait for mines on April 25 on my big screen 85 inch TV..Thanks for posting
Thank you very much for watching! The beautiful music after the intense battle is so soothing to me. If listening to it during the boss battle would give us another excitement too. Omg 85 inch is super big. Playing favorite games with the screen of that size must feel like being in the movie🤩
I kinda wish they used the full vocal version of "Monochrome" instead of the instrumental version, but that's okay. If anything, at least it's a definite change of pace after hearing the "doom and gloom" feel of R-Type Delta's final stage music.
Honestly I'm glad I didn't buy a PS5 for that. I was actually hoping that the Evolved campaign would be a bit more canonical than that. It just doesn't feel complete. I doesn't even feel like I've destroyed any kind of Bydo core at the end, just some weird looking branch. Classic R-Type 3 was done perfectly, it had some cool final stages and a really "final" looking Bydo core
I agree. I don't regret buying 3 Evolved but cannot recommend ppl to by PS5 for this since Granzella looks like they gave up making any more exclusive contents for PS5. As for the Boss design, I also feel they are not good at making cool looking bosses like they were before. But I'm still a fan of shmap R-TYPE series and will keep playing whenever they get any further updates. Please feel free to come and check what we have here.
@@roxy8977 You sir are a wise man. True, the content of Final 3 is still great and the stages (at least up until 5) are beautiful, and also the music. I think the issue is just, it is one of the few PS5 exclusives and I wouldn't spend over 500€ just for that. If it had a PC release i'd buy it instantly. Maybe they will in the future. Or maybe a Final 4 will come. I know they all want to make R-Type episodical, without any hope of an Ending. But I think R-Type deserves some kind of canonical ending.
Wish this had the infinite lives, local 2 player and saving between levels from r-type dimensions. Museum and artbook interview/soundtrack were nice, though title is confusing loading up rtype final 2 but it does include that at least.
I really want invincible mode too. It would help me practice a lot easier. Since R-TYPE series have a lot of mysteries, interview sounds intriguing which might answer the questions that players have had for decades.
@roxy8977 oh sure lol Kujo wanted memorization of complete stages as said in the book. But yeah there's a lot of minutiae to discern shoot 'em ups. I even like flewfie's adventures for being 2 player, having a simple collectible card game and use UFO tractor beams while letting me save between levels.
Well done Roxy! R-Typer 3 difficulty geez and no deaths! What a pro! 👍 Well I already knew I need to get a PS5 for Final Fantasy Rebirth but looks like I gotta buy R-Type Final 3 as well just for the sake of these new stages when I already have Final 2 for Switch, Xbox One & Steam. Gotta save up money somehow... Now see I imported R-Type Tactics II long ago for PSP and beat it but I don't know what the human side ending meant because I don't know Japanese (though I wish I knew how with my limited brain) but I always was curious about it and now I see that ending is also here in Final 3. I really can hardly wait for R-Type Cosmos because everything will be translated and hopefully will tell me what happened here because I definitely remember those insects in the Human ending and the Bydo final mission of Tactics II. What ARE they? I'm hoping Cosmos will provide answers.
Thank you very much for watching! There are more companies making games that are PS5 exclusive so I think it’s good idea to buy PS5 for R-TYPE FINAL 3 EVOLVED or other games that will be released in the future. I’ve never played Tactics franchise but Final 3 would be even more interesting if you have experience playing Tactics I and II since ideas of so many ships and stages are imported from them. As for the story of Tactics, there are full of mysteries among players in Japan too even they could read the texts. Since Cosmos can be played in various languages I’m sure you’ll find out more about the stories and I hope those mysteries will be explained as well.
There is an english fanmade patch done since 2017 for R-Type Tactics II (Command II, in the west), but of course, you need to custom firmware your PSP, in order to play it, I also have all the spoils collected, and their DLCs (for DLCs, I downloaded them since 2019), as well, but a place like this, is not allowed now in days, to post external download links, unless ai request a youtube user, so it can be posted via the description of an video 😂. Man, even with a fan translation, after accomplish the game with the human fraction (the first 2 chapters), the developers, hate good/rewarding endings, and they decided to give us a bad ending, by having "Amber Eye", the final boss, turn us into "bydo", and then being swallow ua, while "Amber Eye" was collapsing, sending us into somewhere unknown area , while the first stage in the Bydo fraction, we woke up in an empty area with a tiny sparkling star, just like stage 6.1, from R-Type Final, for the ps2, Beautiful Erasure. I still don't get it, sorry 😂, silly me...
Was actually kinda interesting having the first few areas look similar is that it feels like your progressing rather than just randomly appearing someplace else. Then you just randomly show up in gear world and then the ending for the tactics human campaign.
R-Tyoe Final 2/3 in general is bland and uninspiring IMO, and Granzella made some dumb decisions about certain aspects of the game. The generic music, the boss designs, the disconnected-ness of everything... I'll admit when it first came out I liked it and it was fun, but then I began comparing it with PSX Final and I realized how much more compelling and even atmospheric PSX Final was, and hope they remake it. I want the old Irem back.
Thank you for watching! I agree the first part make me feel like moving forward as the background slowly changes. It also reminds me of Delta which we also have battle against huge enemy in snow and stage we start in the air and ends in the water. I overall like the game but have only one request to Granzella. Make big cool original bosses!
@@roxy8977 huge fan of shoot em ups and Rytpe been waiting for a playthrough of the new Rtype i am blown away those graphics are unreal i bet it plays phenomenally
The only thing they announced at the moment is the release date of other regions will be anounced separately. As for the PS4, switch, and steam updates, they are waiting for the result of the censor but PS4 will come out first and other platforms will be later than PS4.
Not really strong but depends on which enemy come out. When the the middle-sized enemies that spawn lot's of bydo come out, that would be a bit hard to deal with.
Previous R-TYPE series gave us great surprises every time they released. I understand 3 evolved is not that much. A big change making this game distinct would be a good idea. I hope they make not only new stages and ships but also something different in the future updates.
