Physics and momentum compared to GR1

[Kambô]

I noticed you lose momentum after slide hopping way faster than in GR1.
I think wallrunning is affected as well. Almost like the game is trying to slow you down at every transition. Haven't played GR1 in a long time, but the difference is very off-putting.

Did you guys notice this as well? They made it worse IMO and for no reason.

[roh zedong]

yeah, the overall movement IS much slower than in GR1 and I don't know why but you cannot slidehop anymore and because of that ledge boost is less efficient.

one of the first things i noticed when playing and was immediately disappointed, had fun with everything else though

Agreed, the game is solid, and the motorcycle addition is
They just have to give back the movement physics of GR1.

yes, i wrote about the same thing earlier.
i hope they will change that

Lets be real, the reason we like GR1 physics is because it's borderline overpowered. You have more mobility which makes the game easier vs enemies and all the speedrunning tech lets you skip a lot of regular stuff too. If the devs design the game in a way, they expect it to be played in a certain way. That's probably why they removed DSJ, SDSJ etc.

I tried the demo today, and yeah. The game is definitely slower paced compared to GR1. You move slower, dash slower, dash+slide does not give you that speed boost anymore, dash+slide then jump is not a superjump anymore etc.
But we'll see, maybe it becomes more dynamic in the full game, because of some skills or upgrades you get later on, idk.

some of you are reaching so far on a demo. you forget this game has a skill/ability tree right? for example the tree in this game can increase several of those factors, speed, sliding, jumping, etc.

its a demo, its a demo, its a demo, its a demo, its a demo, its a demo, its a demo, its a demo, its a demo, its a demo, its a demo, its a demo, its a demo, its a demo, its a demo, its a demo, its a demo, its a demo, its a demo, its a demo...

do you get it? you are judging an entire game based on a demo, where full funtionality of the game isn't available. make it make sense, holy f.

I dont think they will be able to do this as every room must be redesigned after changing game physics

The "It's just a beta!" cartoon applies here. They'd not have chosen to demo the game at its worst. It's just going to be like this. It's a shame as the first game had such a great gofast ninja feel to it, why change perfection?

[NSman]

Really hoping they either change the momentum to feel similar to GR1 or there are some abilities that let it feel more like the first game. GR2 Jack feels more like Hel, which I guess is ok, but I still love the feeling of moving so fast I got from GR1. The demo was still fun, but I miss that sense of unrelenting speed.
