2.5h in, 2 mermaids killed and its ok so far. I like that they're """"""""""""mermaids"""""""""""", which lets them be creative with the designs. I don't like that they're one note characters we see for the first time at the bossfight and we just kill them immediately.
Risky Anus can go fuck off, I seriously don't care about her.
Why didn't Shantae recognize Rotty immediately?
Why is there a nigger?
Why did they make the worst "dance" minigame ever? Just make a ddr, old, reliable, fun, easy to animate and program, fuck. Stop trying to reinvent the wheel.
Monster card collecting is... ok. So far their abilities are kinda boring. I appreciate the higher crawl/climb speeds. The subscreen makes it look like you can equip 2 cards at once, so its annoying that you can't.
Almost forgot about the """anime""" cutscenes. Pretty bad. Mostly because they feel fake, and the voice acting is your generic trashy anime english dub, but we can't switch to jap in this one.
The game proper looks excellent. Though it has some jank, like weird animations, or some characters using their portraits poorly, or just incorrectly (e.g. sleeping half genies don't even have their eyes closed).
From the production side of things I think Shantae has just direction problems. Their animatiors, programmers, musicians are all perfectly capable, but whoev
