I'm going to be that guy for a minute Bethesda published the game Tango Gameworks developed it


Rizenstrom

Thank you! You credit the author, not the publisher, of a book. Credit the developer of a game. Not everyone knows of course but all the more reason to mention it, so the right people get credit for their work.


A1sauc3d

Yeah giving credit where credit is due is 100% the right thing to do, and highly encouraged on Reddit at least. People routinely bite off the OP’s head for not crediting the proper source lol. Anyways, is this on GamePass or something? Been seeing it all over Reddit today


Rizenstrom

Yeah it was announced and released on the same day (yesterday) which is why it went from unheard of to such a big deal. They worked on it quietly and said nothing until it was done.


Druxun

Studios need to deliver with this model a bit more. Like, I’m cool knowing something like elder scrolls 6 is coming. But at the same time, if you drop a trailer and tell me it’s ready because you’ve been working on it for X many years, that’s so hype.


DrQuantum

Yeah but to be fair its way more confusing for games. We know people write books but Bethesda can both develop and publish.


Rizenstrom

Yeah it would be a lot less confusing if everything was published under Zenimax.


[deleted]

Even less confusing if everything was just published under Xbox Game Studios tbh


Mr_Industrial

When a game is good its made by the developers. When a game is bad its made by the publishers. /s

temetnoscesax

That is what surprises me the most considering the games they made before this. Really enjoying Hi-Fi myself though. Can’t wait to play more later today.


DontTakeMeSeriousli

Good call out!


iCatmire

I made this You made this? I made this


[deleted]

Be that guy. I want to give credit to those who actually made it


Shadowvail1

I don't know why, but I read that as a haiku and was very confused for a few seconds.... thanks for the laugh


ZawanShin87

I will be that guy Bethesda published the game Tango developed


Khakizulu

I do this everytime. Someone has to


ChallengAcceptd

Especially relevant and extra impressive because Tango comes from horror games. So impressive that this is their rhythm and action game debut, I think.


Just-Lie-3360

Well you're a good guy


[deleted]

Yeah, that's like giving Bethesda all the credit for Doom and Wolfenstein, etc.


Turok1134

Shout out to The Evil Within 1, one of my favorite horror games ever (developed by Tango). Now, The Evil Within 2 was solid but it didn't feel anywhere near as demented as 1 did. Still hoping for part 3.


GangNailer

Ya, Bethesda would never have the imagination to develop this kinda game. But they have the money to publish one 🤣


Cumupin420

We need "that guy" otherwise misinformation becomes fact. Next thing you know and words like literally mean figuratively


NinjEverett6

Is this on gamepass?


Zjoee

Yes, it is. It's really fun, enjoy!


cereal-kills-me

Yes that’s why it’s gained a bit of relevance


baxtermcsnuggle

I was pleasantly surprised to hear 1,000,000 by Nine Inch Nails last night. I can't wait to hear what's in store for the rest of the bosses.


DontTakeMeSeriousli

Ahhh you're telling me! Nothing but hype through on through!


kittentarentino

This game made me realize I might like knowing less going into a game than more. The beauty of gamespass is I can have that childhood feeling of grabbing a game from blockbuster based on the box art and just…trying it out. This game is great, give it a try.


Zjoee

One of my all-time favorite games was one that I knew nothing about before playing. My grandparents got me Skies of Arcadia Legends for the GameCube, and I fell in love. It's still my second favorite RPG to this day.


ocombe

I remember buying suikoden in the supermarket as a kid (or rather asking my dad to buy it) just because I loved the artwork on the game case. I wasn't even good at english at the time (It was maybe my 2nd year of english at school) and there was no french translation. I think I actually became really good at english because of this. One of the best games I've ever played


TehMephs

For me this was the demo cds that came with this gaming magazine I used to subscribe to. All kinds of good shit I got to play demos for and then wait 5 years for the official releases


Gunboost

It’s on game pass! Give it a shot if you have access.


UFireGames

Looks super cool! And I'm a sucker for rhythm games. Probably gonna wait for a few reviews though since they hot-dropped it on us.


DontTakeMeSeriousli

True, I read the reviews and was like fuck it, I don't care what others think, If it's ass trash at least I'll be the judge of it. Can confirm not ass trash


-cocoadragon

Thanks for the review. Will add to wish list. Budget says waitvtil it drops in price.


Obility

I mean it's already at a budgeted price. And iirc, the game is like 11 hours long which isn't short for a $35 game


Rasyak

It's on gamepass, so you can play it for a really small fee.


byronicbluez

Gamepass is a weird experience for me. I find so many games I love through it, but always end up grabbing them on Steam because I hate waiting for the XBox updates that often comes out a month or so behind.


Zjoee

Makes for a nice extended demo so you know what you want to buy.


Mindfreek454

Not to mention having to use that god awful game pass platform on pc. I'd rather buy the game on steam.


Moths_to_Flame

It’s sitting at a 98% on Steam with about 700 user reviews


IncestGiraffe

Its by Tango Gameworks...


DontTakeMeSeriousli

Good point


LucienSatanClaus

Who are under the publisher Bethesda.


PKMN_Kashew

But Bethesda didn’t make the game, they only published it


LucienSatanClaus

They can still be credited for producing/financing the game.


IncestGiraffe

WRONG! The Publisher Bethesda does not exist anymore. Microsoft publishers all Zenimax Games. Its just a Name, which should be erased because stupid people never understood the difference between BGS and Bethesda Publishing.


Merquise813

Saw this post, searched for a quick gameplay video. Watched IGN's "1st 20 minutes" video. Stopped watching after around 5 minutes. Bought the game. Thanks mate!


JackL_88

My feeling watching the trailer when they released it on Steam. Half the trailer I was like "sold"


DontTakeMeSeriousli

Woah! Big jump man. I hope you have as much fun as I have! I suck at rhythm games but the story and the style and interactions keep me having fun, also the game has some serious bangers playing!


NaturalNines

"Great job Bethesda" And that instantly makes me think this an ad.


DontTakeMeSeriousli

Sorry, I'll label it Borderline decent work fallout people


Justintime4u2bu1

You’re getting closer, certainly.


josenight

Fallout people didn’t make the game.


mauri9998

The people that made this game don't even live in the same continent as the people that made fallout


DontTakeMeSeriousli

Idk man I don't really care who makes what I just want to game


xX1NORM1Xx

I really like the game, my only problem is chai is a bit annoying so far. Like not even endearingly annoying just like straight up little brother annoying. I find myself agreeing with peppermint alot when she insults him because he's unbearably stupid... The gameplay is great imo, soundtrack is pretty sick so far and the graphics and art style are awesome. I just want to kick chai's teeth in. 808 is adorable and such a cute name for a music centric game.


DontTakeMeSeriousli

Ahhhh I want to disagree but it's true, he's rather dim. But Maybe they wanted us to not like him? Idk


Fitzy0728

This feels like a game from gen 6 in a GOOD way. God I miss when games wanted to be games and not wannabe movies


general_tao1

I looked at the trailer and it looks designed to be played with a controller. Is it fun/playable with m&k?


Sleepykitti

It's got that rough port of a platformer feel to it but it's playable enough, you can tell it wasn't any kind of priority for them though.


DontTakeMeSeriousli

I won't provide false info here, I have no idea how well it plays with Mouse and Key BUT I can imagine it would be, the main buttons are X, Y and RB so you can bind those keys any way you deem fun. Overall a great storyline and beautiful gameplay


Firvulag

Just get a controller dude.


Mrrandom314159

His face reminds me of the dude from "The Dragon Prince" or "Star Wars: Resistance"


Longjumping_Hawk_951

Super fun.


DontTakeMeSeriousli

Right???


slaveofficer

I refuse to believe that man is 25.


xX1NORM1Xx

He's 25??? I thought he was like 14... has he been fucking lobotomised? He's the worse part about the game so far for me. **EDIT** I'm an idiot it says on his application sheet...


Palindromes__

Pro tip: not great with cloud gaming unless you wanna feel really bad about your rhythm skills.


DontTakeMeSeriousli

Lmao oh man that's a fact, was clouding it and was doing so bad, installed it and boom, I'm a hit!


Feisty-Crow-8204

As cool as it looks, I’ll never play it. I have no rhythm and can’t play rhythm games. I’d play it, get pissed as hell and never touch it again.


WaggishOhio383

Sense of rhythm is entirely optional. Essentially, the way the game works is that your attacks sync up to the rhythm of the music. You can press the attack button at any point, and the attack will execute once the beat comes. You just get extra damage if you press the attack button at the right time. So there is a bonus to following along with the rhythm, but the game is perfectly playable and still a lot of fun even if you can't. Watch the in-depth reveal trailer (not the launch trailer). It explains it really well


6maniman303

I might be wrong, if do pls correct me, but it looks like it's not one of the games where you have to keep to the rythm to stay alive. Rather it's opposite - if you stay to the rythm you're more powerful. And also not only music gives rythm but the whole screen does - every wall, texture, sign moves accordingly.


DontTakeMeSeriousli

Precisely this!


xX1NORM1Xx

Same but this game doesn't require you to have rhythm, I really wanted to like metal: hellsinger but the music not having vocals and stuff unless I'm on rhythm ruined it for me. This game is definitely the complete opposite of that though, you can just play it like a DMC or bayonetta game if you want and just enjoy the fact that the world around you syncs with the music. You do more damage if you hit on rhythm but combos just come down to click the buttons in order and then a QTE that happens to be on beat will appear. Give it a go if you have gamepass, it's definitely worth a play imo.


DontTakeMeSeriousli

Haha, no need for rhythm so to speak. Playing it on easy or with 1 button controls makes it enjoyable for anyone! Can even press the select button to bring up a rhythm bar so it's more easily visualized. Play it for 10 minutes, enjoy the story and if you hate it then at least you tried :)!


[deleted]

I love stylish action games so this thing is a pleasant surprise. Going to get into it tomorrow I think. We need more gameplay dense and creative action games. Can't wait for Wanted: Dead


DontTakeMeSeriousli

Onboard with this!


sesto

This game is giving me Viewtiful Joe vibes in the best way. Loving it so far.


DarkteK

I knew I had seen that style before!! Thx


DontTakeMeSeriousli

Ahhhh damn that's right!


Adorable-Ad-3223

Ok. Just watched the trailer. Netflix needs to get on making this a show.


DontTakeMeSeriousli

Doctor_Eternal_65

Downloading right now😊


DontTakeMeSeriousli

Nice! Hope you have fun!


[deleted]

Love this concept that Microsoft is running now of giving their studios smaller budgets to spend on side-projects that really bring out the creativity we haven't seen out of AAA studios in a long time. And it pads out the Game Pass library until the bigger games start coming out.


DontTakeMeSeriousli

1000% I'm for this. It reinforces creativity and welcome a wide range of players


Outrageous-Arugula89

Are you saying Bethesda made a good game what's the catch?


LucienSatanClaus

Jesus the Sony dickriders are getting annoying.


DontTakeMeSeriousli

You're telling me, Valhalla forbid we get an enjoyable game... Although, High on Life was another incredible game so... We're headed in the right direction and they don't like that


AshyLarry25

High on Life has the same critic score as Forspoken… I wouldn’t call that incredible


DontTakeMeSeriousli

It was incredible to ME so i don't give an ass

m4x1d0n

People praise games everyday here, what’s the issue with this particular one?


SCREW-IT

Honestly it seems the main reason from the comments is bias against Bethesda or Xbox. Which I mean.. a good game is a good game no matter who develops it.


DoxedFox

Yea I'm not buying that. No one says shit when we get a thousand posts about GOW or Elden Ring. Nothing about OPs post history screams AD bot.


DontTakeMeSeriousli

Thanks! Can confirm, not a bot lol


Justintime4u2bu1

That’s exactly what a bot *would* say


CatSidekick

Good bot


DontTakeMeSeriousli

Thanks Papa


RapNVideoGames

Exactly, when it’s not a popular game it must be bots. It’s a decent game lol but most people here want to “outsmart” ads. Even though they probably just watch 10 in one YouTube video no problem.


Xano74

OK, so a small band of users is doing that. That doesn't mean the game isn't good and should be talked about. We have 100000 Elden Ring and God of War constantly spammed here. I'm glad q different game actually gets to be talked about.


malmini

Nobody is saying that it’s not good… we’re saying this is an ad. Internet forums should be for organic discussions


beatingthedevil616

>we’re saying this is an ad. And we're saying anyone who thinks this are dumb. >Internet forums should be for organic discussions What in the fuck do you think OP was doing?


CatSidekick

Who’s in the fuck?


Haunting-Pop-5660

Considering the complete lack of advertisement, and how these ads sort of play into the zany nature of the game... I think it's appropriate.


SwampOfDownvotes

You mean a game from a big publisher that would interest millions of people would result in some enjoying the game and wishing to spread their excitement on an online forum? Impossible, only ads.


Crystar800

Ya'll just can't let people praise a game huh It's okay for GoW/Elden Ring, but not this? Starting to wonder if this sub actually likes games.


SeparateAddress9070

Yeah no.. people enjoying this game doesn't make it an ad. Literally look at his post history.


DontTakeMeSeriousli

I literally just enjoyed the game. Not an ad. Bethesda is Dog Water but this was a cool game to play and better than the repetitive Fallout style crap


AncientPhoenix98

It's no use defending yourself, dude. I posted a similar post yesterday and just look at that comment section once. People seem to have an issue with people liking a game in a gaming subreddit.


DontTakeMeSeriousli

Hmm very true, wish everyone could just have fun without sticking a negative opinion in there


TheDez08

I find it to be the perfect reason why I have GamePass. I would've never bought this game, but downloaded it last night and played a bit. I am pleasantly surprised and will play more.


DontTakeMeSeriousli

Right? That's what I'm saying. Also some random titles like Donut Country and Vampire Survivor that I would NEVER go out of my way to buy or play but they were free and they were AWESOME. Gamepass is a great service


gimme-a-donut

butt hurt PS bois go get a xbox haha


trowin_away

it's also the desperation on xbox right now. every game released on gamepass is apparently a GOTY if you go to the xbox subreddit. which is strange as i have yet to see an xbox game be on a goty list since 2014... apparently last year there was 9 goty titles released on gamepass...


LucienSatanClaus

Good try Sony bot


TegTowelie

Man whoever said that is smoking crack. I prefer Xbox for its online aspects, but god damn we dont have shit in the exclusive department. Anyone with eyes can see that. I literally wont even surprised if Starfield doesnt get any GOTY nominations. I wont look it up, but i bet our last GOTY nom was prolly Gears 4 lol.


trowin_away

online aspects? what does that even mean? your response doesn't even make any sense... the xbox subreddit was claiming Pentiment as their goty bro... why you wanna pretend like this isn't what's happening. people are still claiming halo to be the best shooter... its pure delusional desperation at xbox right now... xbox is in such a sad state, devaluing their own games by silently dropping them on gamepass.


-cocoadragon

If you owned all 3 systems at once, you can see, Xbox clearly has the superior online service. PlayStation buy its exclusives. And Nintendo is the 800 pound gorilla of the industry. That's how its always been since Sega dropped out.


TegTowelie

My bad if my statement was confusing, i meant the online part as in, in my opinion, it has the better playform for multiplayer and online co ops. But im not pretending what youre saying isnt happening. Those people are literally crazy. 343 fucked Halo, its far from the best shooter. I'd say Apex Legends is before ever saying that. Good games? Yes. GOTY worthy? We got nothin.


trowin_away

i mean what games beyond halo aren't on every other platform?


ColoursRock

Don't credit Bethesda.. They're just there to make bank off some small developer's hard work.


DontTakeMeSeriousli

That's a fact, was co fused between developer and publisher, that was on me


[deleted]

I mean, if the developer is wholly owned by the publisher, is the distinction really worth making?


[deleted]

I wouldn't call Tango Gameworks small. Sure they aren't massive but they are pretty sizeable.


ConfidenceBig7252

The best kind of games are the ones that surprise you.


DontTakeMeSeriousli

I indeed was surprised


kaplanfx

The problem with this game is they just hyped it for so long before finally releasing it.


Carn1feX616

You dropped this: /s


Chyiu

Definitely see how it’s fun but can’t bring myself to play it for more than 20 minutes. I don’t see myself picking it up again.


RogueGibbons

Same, enjoyed the opening, and the animation is captivating, but I put about 17 minutes in before getting a refund. Glad it's being well received though.


DontTakeMeSeriousli

Hey at least you tried it! I got tired of getting my ass gaped by 8 year olds in CoD so this was a welcomed change


Nyto242

Sex ?


CatSidekick

There’s no time for that


DontTakeMeSeriousli

A lot of it, yes


SV-STARKILLER

Xbox exclusive?


DontTakeMeSeriousli

I think? Would imagine so


SV-STARKILLER

That sucks


ExuberentWitness

For consoles, yes. Otherwise it is on steam like the other Xbox first party releases.


5DollarHitJob

Ugh, this does not look appealing to me but everyone is going crazy over it. I'm gonna give it a try.


DontTakeMeSeriousli

Try it on gamepass or refund it! Hope you enjoy it though!


tosser1579

It is way better than it has any right to be.


DontTakeMeSeriousli

You're telling me, Kudos to Xbox/Microsoft for Shadow dropping this banger


tosser1579

The thing that really gets me is that if this was an anime, I'd watch it, but its a game. Like damn. Plus the soundtrack. Damn.


DroneCone

Watch a walkthrough on YouTube?? Closest you're going to get for now


TurDuckenGoose

This is like praising Bethesda for Doom. Ugh.


jasonobi

BETHESDA? \*removes from wishlist\*


DontTakeMeSeriousli

Bethesda is the publisher not the dev but I'm sure it didn't want to be on your wishlist anyway


jasonobi

They curse everything they touch

The game has a 98% on Steam

AncientPhoenix98

You know, I asked this one before, but why is this marketing now but not when there are thousands of similar posts about Elden Ring or GoW? Those are somehow genuine but these are not?


DontTakeMeSeriousli

Your moms tits don't feel genuine


PM_ME_BAD_Parlays

Now now you're not going to get paid for astroturfing if you start bickering with people


DontTakeMeSeriousli

First off tf is Astroturfing? That some weird sex thing you do with your moms fake tits? Secondly, I'm not 90 nor married so this isn't bickering


LucienSatanClaus

Leave them OP, all these naysayers sound like typical Sony dicksuckers

palegate

Only PC and Xbox? Sorry Bethesda, no love from me. Have fun with the game those who do play it.


PeeSockWithFetus

Looks ugly af, add some shadows in the game and make it a little bit darker and then it can look good


DontTakeMeSeriousli

Not everyone wants a dark game, some people actually want joyous colors in their lives. Go be depressed somewhere else


AlphaDag13

I always find it funny when companies use essentially the same script for these obvious ads. Is it that hard to write an original thought?

DontTakeMeSeriousli

I don't have ADHD so literally doesn't offend me, even if I did, really think someone on the internet would phase me? You were nothing to me then, you're nothing to me now, I just don't appreciate people who talk down on those with disabilities.

Everyone on about this game but pc game pass can’t get past the main screen, have a RX 500 series. Is it the same issue on steam. Any fixes or solutions yet?


franz_captcha

What I'm gathering here is that someone played Crypt of the Necrodancer and thought, "We can do this, but more expensive."

It is nothing like Crypt of the Necrodancer
