Title: Kirby's Epic Yarn
Post by: Volvagia on October 15, 2010, 05:15:12 AM
So it comes out in America on the 17th, it's already out in Japan and it's already leaked to the internet for the majority of us.

I'm playing the US version as the EU edition doesn't come out till Spring 2011, by that point I'll be playing MVC3 and won't really care for Epic Yarn so I might as well play it now.

It's actually really fun, I haven't played a Kirby game since I was a kid (Dreamland on the Gameboy) so it's a bit of a nostalgia rush for me in some ways.

Has anyone else played it/planning to pick it up?

Not for $50. If it drops to about $30, I'll jump right on it, but right now it's outta the picture since I'm poor.

you guys better be kidding

don't get this as your first kirby game if you're worried about price. get that remake of super star on the ds or something.

kirby is a fucking excellent series and along with mario is probably the epitome of perfect platforming. the easy difficulty and short lengths don't drain from the endless replay value on his better games, if you ask me.

Kirby Superstar (DS or on VC) is a great game to start on because it has so much content in it.
Regardless, Epic Yarn looks very promising. <3

I've played a couple Kirby games for a few minutes, but I've never owned one
I once borrowed Canvas Curse from a friend and really enjoyed it, but it's not really like most Kirby games.
idk they always seem cute, just not worth the price
That said I probably should get an older one, but it might be a while (other games I want more, not much money)
Title: Re: Kirby's Epic Yarn
Post by: rdl on October 15, 2010, 07:11:40 PM
canvas curse is amazing, i still need to pick it up.

im not gonna buy the new one for $50, for a Kirby game that's always a rip-off. Since there won't be a price drop, and electronics stores don't have sales anymore, I might wait until the Wii is dead or something to get it.

You fall in a hole and you get carried out. Very similar to that of the Mario Kart plummeting into the darkness of nothingness and being carried by Laikitu.

Post by: KonohaShinobi on October 16, 2010, 05:45:29 AM
Why are people saying $50 is too much for a kirby game? If you bought SuperStar Saga new on the DS, that would have been $35. SS  has SIGNIFICANTLY less content than Epic Yarn (Co-Op, a ton more levels, among other things), for $15 more, if you liked SS, why wouldn't you buy it? This is pretty much the kirby game that Nintendo has teased since the Gamecube came out, so if you were excited for that, you should buy this.

This is interesting, I did not know this. Is there a lives system? It would feel weird to ask if there was a difficulty setting option on a nintendo game, but maybe there is one in Epic Yarn? Not as if anyone would play a kirby game for the challenge anyway.

There isn't a difficulty setting as far as I know, and also as far as I know, there isn't a life system. It punishes you for falling into holes though, it takes away A LOT of your collectables (gems things you need to progress in the game.) Say I have 400 and I fall into a hole, at least 200 of those will be scattered around me because I fell into the hole and it gives me next to little time to pick them all back up. I'm just glad it punishes you in some manner.

Being the purist that I am, I actually don't see what the big deal is. Dying in Kirby because I was screwing around too much with the Waddle Doos was always annoying, so, I'm sort of glad they axed it. Kirby isn't supposed to be hard, it's supposed to make you feel adorable <3

what are you talking about

i sincerely doubt epic yarn has more content than ssu did

i heard talk of the story mode lasting only 6 hours if you're not a completionist

also, co-op is in NO way "content"

and this is NOT the game nintendo teased us with

that game was going to be made by hal and was more traditional and AWESOME

this is bullshit

fuck good-feel, they make shitty games that people only buy because they're "omg HAND DRAWN BEAUTIFUL!!!"

fucking collectathon BULLSHIT
