Style over substance - Is Suda51 running out of ideas?

VideoGamer: "Suda51 has an imaginative eye, but as a director he's on the downturn: a creator of great-looking worlds with nothing to put in them."

I feel Suda makes games that are 100% aimed towards his fan base which he should be doing

[Lord_Sloth]

Agreed. We see what happens when Capcom tries aiming at other fanbases.

Style over substance? Exactly how all his games are!

[admiralvic]

Exactly what I came to say.

I'm a sucker for style. I know I'm the kind of guy who would play or game or watch an average movie if its stylish. For instance Only God Forgives is a very average movie, but I couldn't resist it simpy because of the art style.

Same goes for Suda 51 games, the art style for me compensates for the lack of depth. Back in the day I bought a Xbox just to play Jet Set Radio Future. It wasnt the best game in he world but it was so stylish its one of my favourite games.

Isn't that the point of his games, I don't think he's running out of ideas either. they're still far more imaginative than most of the stuff churned out these days.

He makes the games that he wants to make. Simple as. I wish there were more games makers out there with the balls to do that.

[JackOfAllBlades]

I really enjoy uniquely styled games, no need to go more mainstream

[Venoxn4g]

in his games i like jokes, story and style... gameplay lacks something, but i love still his games

This person has the nerve to say Suda51 is running outta ideas? When we keep getting the same damn game over and over again with all these third person shooters like Uncharted and now the Last of Us! Which keep getting big scores at that! I am way more interested in a bizarre looking game like this, that puts you in a world that is unlike all these other games out right now! Every Uncharted game has you doing the same dang thing in the same damn setting over and over again!

A game like that will hit big with game reviewers. Makes no sense to me. I couldnt even finish the Last of Us, i was so damn bored i put it up on ebay! A game like that is so predictable and the market is saturated with those type of games right now. The art style of Killer looks very interesting to me and the weird world and characters. It took some creative and wacky mind to come up with all that. My hat is off to a company like Suda51, they are at least trying to do something different here and it needs our full support!

I will be picking the game up today, regardless of what some of these reviewers say! Hell, Suda even is selling a special edition to all its fans for same price! Comes with an artbook, soundtrack and dlc. I dont know, kinda getting pissed at some of these reviewers out there that are missing the whole point! Do you want to be playing the same game over and over again?
