Unplayable

[JasseZocker]

I saw the game and thought that would be a nice little game. Then the trophy guide, nothing crazy. So I played the game and I hate the combat so much. Why do I get damage when I simply touch the enemy??? The first few are okay but the field level with these unbeatable scarecrows are just ridiculous... I beat this level but the next one is not better. This is just awful and I don't wanna continue... Did I missed something or am I just terrible?

Bad news for you then, there will be more cheap deaths later in the game due to bad jumps, camera movements and annoying enemies

I don't think is that bad tho, i love the game, a fairly easy platinum and it has it's charm and nostalgia.

You didn't miss anything, the controls just aren't very good. The updated visuals and audio for this remake are great, but unfortunately the character and camera controls are still stuck in the PS1 era.

 

I get that they were trying to remain true to the original PS1 game, and it's gotta be a fine line to walk when deciding exactly what to change and how much to change it. But the controls definitely could have used more of an upgrade here, especially the camera. As with anything else, you'll get used to it with practice.
