Correct me if I'm wrong but, wasn't God some kind of agriculture god or something?

You know, there've been stock screams in this game before, but holy gently caress, the scene with Hod and Loki was a straight up combo platter of them. Just one after another. I'd ask if nobody thought that was a little over the top, but I guess given the rest of the game, that's the least of its problems.

Yeah that one was incredibly egregious in both canned screams and explosion effects. Not to mention Hod's absolute lack of walking animation at one point during that cutscene. That part where he just slid forward.

That is the worst boss fight design I've ever seen. Who thought that repeating the same gimmick fight like, five times in a row was a good idea? Who could possibly think that would be enjoyable?

I'm entranced by the decision to make the Norns and the World Tree a big dumb computer. It feels like the entire goal was to invent the absolute worst possible user interface for what is supposed to be a database, and then have the database speak in spooky riddles and prophecy. It's amazing how bad every idea in this game is.

On the one hand, true, on the other hand, the UI really wants to "interface" with you

What really annoys me about it is that I can see they're going for a 'three faces of Eve' thing, but completely loving it up, which also makes it pretentious and incompetent at the same time.

Before the Age of Pokemon, one game Game Freak made was Pulseman for the Sega Genesis. You play as the titular Pulseman, who is half-man, half-program because his dad was a programmer that made an AI and then had sex with her.

Not at all. They are representing the Norns who consist of three female beings with represent the past, the present, and the future.

The chunk-chunk-chunk-chunk gun sounds really familiar to me too. Was it in Faces of War (or Men of War or whichever it was)?

# ? Oct 30, 2019 05:36 |

Yeah I recognize the sound as well but I can't place it. But I'll say Bren gun or BAR on a whim.

Also known in other cultures as The Crone, The Matron/Mother, and the Maiden, they are said to represent Past, Present, And Future, and control the Fates of all living beings, be they gods or mortals. See also: the Moirai in Greek mythology. And, to give the atrocious writing of Too Human a smidge of credit, their possible origin in the game fits with their mythological one. The Norns were said to be three female Jotuns (Ice Giants) who tended the roots of The World Tree, and whose arrival signaled the end of the golden age of the gods. This fits with Too Human's Norns being AI Constructs who are potentially the last remaining non-aggressive machine lifeform left over from the Ymir, and their duties as custodians of the Yggdrasil Computer Network. Yeah, tenuous at best, but I literally fall asleep thinking about poo poo like this.

This is supposed to be some mech sub/tank thing. Why is there so much wasted space?

So the pressure is going to crush Baldur, but not the sub? How does that work?

If I had to pick one thing to hate about the Valkyrie animation is the part where she lands and then she freezes completely while her wings retract, just so we can "enjoy" the animation put into it. And then to rub salt in the wound, when she lifts Baldur her wings unfold without any fanfare.

Next mission is the last mission? Man, this game could have done well with some pacing and broken these massive slogs into small bite sized mission. Also, Thor might be the worst.

You should just do the fights at twice the speed, just to hear everyone talking like chipmunks.

This game is subsequently padded to the nines and short as poo poo. How did they manage to fail making a game that hard by making it too long and too short?

It'll be interesting to see how they tie up the plot considering I wasn't aware the plot had even started.

The plot is kind of the fifth player in co-op, metaphorically speaking.

I'm sure if we want to see where the plot goes all we gotta do is help kickstarter '2 Human' and 'Try Human' to finish the trilogy.

Wow... I can't believe how much of this game my brain just blocked off because it was terrible. Which was all of it. I actually had some fond memories and you have destroyed all of those.

Honestly, there's been a lot of plot points but they've all either just reiterated stuff we know from Norse mythology or barely tie into anything else. The only real set of events that line up is Thor and Loki's relationship, which only really serves to show what an idiot Thor is.

Night10194 posted:Wait, the next mission is the last? But nothing has actually happened. Something to keep in mind with Too Human is that it was originally planned to release on the PlayStation 1 in 1999, then the GameCube, before it ended up releasing on the 360 9 years later. When they switched to the 360 It was supposed to be a trilogy. As for Eternal Darkness, it was a good game but they also signed a exclusivity deal with Nintendo at the time who probably kept them on track. Then they ended that contract, let Too Human be a Microsoft exclusive in the early Xbox days and this is what we got.
