Breakdown

[BRP]

I don't care if you have no idea what this game is. I fucking beat it and it almost gave me a mental breakdown. So I must make a thread for therapeutic reasons. The end of the this game(which btw you will feel like you are near several times starting from the half-way point and on, but you are not. At all. The final boss isn't even a final boss) is simply put a nightmare. The kind of nightmare in which you are gangraped by several GIANT bald men(I've had it a million times, but now its really happening).

This game combat system(basically first person 3D fighters w/o juggles), while cool and unique, was not designed to fight more than two opponents, if that. The targeting system is complete garbage. But then this game towards the end puts up against several BULLSHIT enemies at once constantly. It seriously like fighting multiple opponents at once in like Virtua Fighter or Tekken or something(and that relatively easy quest-mode they had since 3(?) doesn't count). You can usually run away from most, but then at the very end you simply can't and then you got to defeat something 5-8 opponents at once. The final boss was a cool fight though. Probably the best use of a combat system which we might not see again for another decade. (On other hand, guns/aiming were extremely meh at best.)

So this is your health warning: If you ever feel like playing old Xbox games(which you should if you have any taste at all), and you play this game and you don't normally play hard games - just play on easy man. Or maybe normal, but I heard it isn't much easier on normal. The story is pretty good once you realize what's going on(until then it feels just like Half-Life, but with Shenmue item grabbing). It features the best kind of plot twist.

P.S. FUCK YOU kiara

THIS IS IMPORTANT. You ONLY need to kill the three fat guys. The rest will respawn constantly(and on easier modes they don't, but you still don't need to kill them). When the times comes, you'll know what I mean.
