Is this the best beat em up or what?

[Vakula]

I honestly cant think of anything better

[Blackburn]

my all time favorite hand-to-hand combat games are Sifu and Oni

Best mechanics, I'd say. For story, Lost Judgment has more content.

yeah definitely not a winner in the story department but if you are a gameplay over story guy like me, its hard to do better than Sifu in the genre

Definitely the best gameplay in any single player fighting game. The story is simply perfect for this type of game. You're some person, going on a crusade for revenge. That's all that's important.

Who cares about the story anyways? If I want a good story, I read a book. There's tens of billions of books out there, most of which are written by people whose talents compared to the best video game writers is the same way Lebron James penis compares to that of a poorly developed tit mouse.

If enduring 90 minutes of CGI cutscenes dubbed with pornography grade voice acting sounds exciting to you, you're probably not a gamer.

I've seen Bruce Lee's "Game of Death" when I was a child. I never cared about why he went up that tower. Did you?

Imo the content leaves a lot to be desired... It costs €40 and I finished it in around 3-4hrs. I know I can replay all the missions and spare bosses but there's only 5 missions and you can get through them pretty quickly. I could also play the highest difficulty I guess. The combat is good, but it's not exactly innovative, with many games using the same type of combat.

The game should be half of its asking price.

Which games would u say use the same type of combat? I thought it was pretty innovative for a beat em up. You cant button mash and have to be mindful of the direction of your inputs, and timing ducks, jumping over sweeps and parrying. This isnt Batman combat or Spiderman.

This is literally faster Batman: Arkham City combat without the combat indicators and a bit more RNG

The combat in Sifu is "literally" nothing like in the Batman games. It's also not "faster". If anything, it's more similar to Dark Souls games than anything else.

Looks really clunky, old, and bad. Wow...it has 50 moves. Sifu has 'only' 36 moves when you don't count the weapon strikes. But then again, Sifu combat looks much better because they actually used motion capturing. That's probably the reason why Oni's combat feels so underwhelming in comparison.

I remember ONI for being a 3d platformer. Not sure if that was supposed to be the point of the game, but it's what I remember after all this time

Sifu is not a game, is a path to test your limit.

Best fighting game ever made. Even when you are master sifu, you still need to be 100% focus and alert as day one.

lol okey calm down

Definitely the best for me since I'm already a huge martial arts fan, and the combat being so satisfying is the cherry on top. Hope Sloclap makes a sequel
