Started and quit two games.
First game is Shadow Labyinth. I played a bit over 14 hours. At first I got stuck two hours in because I missed a vine and for about two hours I was just stuck, eventually noticed I missed this vine after exploring everywhere that I couldn't go again a couple other times. Afterwards I actually was able to progress to 62% of the game in around 14 hours and once again I can't find where to go, but now there's a much bigger area to explore. According to the games arena I'm missing a boss and in the area that I last have been exploring I'm missing what I think is double jump because there are a lot of areas, even shortcuts that I can't access even after I progressed the other way. After spending around an hour trying to find where to go I was just done.
I did feel like it was a decent game but even if I had no further issues the remainder of the game I don't think I'd have scored it higher than a 7/10, but because of how hard it is to find where to go it's definitely worse than that now, but again, that's when you can't find where to go. If you never have that problem it's still a pretty good game. Doubtful you'll not have that problem as I've heard that I'm not the only one who's gotten stuck.
The second game I quit playing around an hour in, maybe two, is Assault Suit Leynos 2. So I was already going to purchase this game because of how great of a game Cybernator is and how great of a game Assault Suit Leynos remake is on the PS4. I didn't like Target Earth, but I was like, If Cybernator is as good as it is and the remake of Assault Suit Leynos(Target Earth,) is basically remade to play more like Cybernator, then I'm sure Assault Suit Leynos 2 will also be a great game, right? Right?? No.
Assault Suit Leynos 2 is a bad game. The controls that are in Cybernator have been removed, you no longer have the multi directional firing based on what direction you're aiming. If you aim diagonal up or up, your weapon will aim straight up and the only way you can fire diagonally is during that split second where the character is raising their weapon. But oh wait, you can put it on auto, which doesn't work against everything and sometimes it won't target what you want depending on the positioning. But even when auto is on it doesn't work against everything, sometimes it doesn't work against the exact same enemies it worked on the previous mission. After I got to mission 4 and just how precise you have to be at killing everything to stop the tanker from being destroyed, I deleted the game and I'm never giving the game another chance. I played that stage for around 30 seconds. You can't be too far ahead of it because the aerial units will destroy it, but you can't just stand in the center and kill all the aerial units because the ground units will destroy it.
The other stages weren't any better, the trounament will end if you receive too much damage, but it's also timed so if you're too slow at killing the enemy even if you have no chance in hell at dying doesn't matter. and you can only auto target some enemies, so I keep getting sent to the next mission at tne second enemy because while not dying, I get him down to where he reacts to me twice and then the game moves onto the next mission because I take too long.
The missions themselves are also a whole lot of nothing. The first stage is just a flat stage with mechs until the boss that rolls back and forth repeatedly. The second stage is a couple of hills going up to a cannon "that can shoot through walls." So you basically have to watch when the text reads three, two, one, fire, and then start to boost dash to evade. It's just a very poorly designed game. Like low effort garbage compared to any of the other games in the series that I did like. I even platinumed the remake which I think you're required to finish the game in a single life to get one of the trophies.
