Transistor - Malthe - 2013-03-19

From the creators of bastion, Supergiant Games:

Looks incredibly interesting and if the soundtrack is anything like what Bastion had i'll be filled with joy.
Can't wait to get some more information regarding it.

How do you guys feel about it? Will you be getting it?
Looks like it'll be a beat-em-up/Action-RPG like bastion.


Transistor - Jedward - 2013-03-19

I love it already. I just hope they do enough to differentiate it from Bastion, although the gameplay looks to be the same.


Transistor - Chew - 2013-03-19

I was actually reading this at other site.
Can't wait to see how this will develope.


Transistor - FenixR - 2013-03-19

It really does remind you of Bastion, Must be mostly for the Art Style. Still looks amazing.


Transistor - Polantaris - 2013-03-19

It looks interesting, but I would rather have more gameplay footage before I go head over heels about it.


Transistor - Dusk - 2013-03-19

Art and soundtrack are bound to be amazing; I hope the game isn't too similar to Bastion, though.


Transistor - MariettaRC - 2013-03-20

I loved the heck out of Bastion, for both the art and the gameplay. Seeing the similar art style makes me excited for this.


Transistor - Jettono - 2013-03-20

It looks incredible already.
And apparently they're showing it at PAX East, which is this weekend.
So I guess we could expect some gameplay footage from the people there.

Quote:Looking at screenshots of Supergiant Games' upcoming Transistor, it would be easy to assume that it plays similar to the developer's previous game, Bastion. After playing through it at PAX East, however, it immediately became clear that this is an entirely new experience that's every bit as impressive as the studio's first game.

You control Red, a famous singer in the city of Cloudbank that's been targetted by a group of assassins for unknown reasons. After being attacked, she wakes to find herself on the other side of the city. Plunged into a dead man is the same sword the assassins used to attack her with. She pulls it out of the body, and discovers that the dead man's voice and consciousness are now tied to the sword itself. It speaks to her, but doesn't offer any explanation about why she's become a target. It isn't a back-and-forth conversation, as the assassins have somehow taken Red's voice.

Seeing that bastion was my own GOTY 2011 my hype level is through the roof by now.
Now begins the waiting game for 2014 Rolleyes

This bit especially:
Quote: and the soundtrack already seems like it will rival Bastion's,
ahstogfjslgnkfdlkjtef can't wait.

Video of the playable demo available at Pax East.
I have to see more of this game, but I will probably buy this because I absolutely loved Bastion. I'm liking the strategy mechanics.

If you watch the demo, listen carefully to the voice of the sword. I'm happy. Biggrin

Ruckssssss


Transistor - Dusk - 2013-03-23

Sounds like Logan Cunningham is just going to talk over the entire game again. That was something uniquely awesome about Bastion, I don't like the idea of doing it here.

Super mega ultra bump.

The storytelling from bastion was top notch.


Transistor - y0y0y0y0shi0 - 2014-05-06

I have so much of a boner waiting for this game.

All of this. It's gorgeous.


Transistor - MariettaRC - 2014-05-06

May 20?! Holy crap, that was sooner than I expected.


Transistor - Shidoshi - 2014-05-09

Time to add it to my wishlist and wait for opinions when it launches.


Transistor - xBTAx - 2014-05-21

Beat it a couple hours ago.

It was really amazing and more than lived up to the hype. I played through Bastion a few days ago (I had played 2/3 of it forever ago but never finished) and enjoyed it a lot, but this blew Bastion away. I didn't expect to like the combat/skill system a ton, because Bastion's wasn't too great, but I ended up loving it because of all the ways you were able to experiment and change things, and how it encouraged you to try new things in a really interesting way. The narration/voice-over is honestly much better than Bastion's in my opinion, and it's integrated into the story in a way that makes much more sense. So basically, if you enjoyed Bastion, you'll probably enjoy this even more.

...and for what it's worth, it took me about 11 hours to beat. Though I plan on doing at least some of a Recursion/NG+ because there's some leveling-related stuff I didn't see yet.
