Early on you get jumps that are not possible to make, so the gut instinct is a double jump, but instead you get the drone tether jump. The issue here is that you do NOT get the same kind of signalling in this game.
#Axiom verge 2 all weapons upgrade#
Too unique in some cases, one of the hallmark moments in a metroidvania is when you get an upgrade that allows you to explore better in previously visited places. 90% of the time its better to just run past everything besides bosses and hack everything you can't or don't want to run past.Īnother issue I have is actually really specific, the "upgrades" are really unique. The melee weapons aren't super useful, and the boomerang is alright, but too slow for frantic encounters.
The gameplay is different, not better or worse honestly, I do feel like there is a definite lack of a "Bread and Butter" weapon. There were lots of notes and such, but besides the lore for the universe this games plot for 90% of the game is "I wanna leave asap." The main character is really good, but I feel like the entire game was a little "Lore>Plot>Game". I want to just stress a few of my feelings on it and how it feels to play the game.įirst, the story, without spoilers I think its quite good. There will be secrets you can only find in the breach as well as places in the overworld that can only be reached via a path going through the breach-and vice versa.I do like the game, not as much as the first, but still better than a lot of games I've played recently. In Axiom Verge 2, you’ll have the ability to enter and exit the breach and discover how that world is connected to the overworld. After toying around with a few approaches, I decided that approaching the breach as an additional dimension could unleash a huge range of opportunities for non-linear exploration.
At first I considered just having one piece of land elevated above the other. It took a while for the two worlds idea to gel. I first decided to include the breach in Axiom Verge 2 in some form around 2016. In Axiom Verge, someone named Athetos was able to traverse the breach and use a breach attractor to keep Sudra trapped. The breach, on the right, is a region of space, long thought to be unpassable, that at first kept the denizens of Sudra safe from the outside universe. So first things first, what is the breach? Well, if you’ve played Axiom Verge 1, you may recall a cutscene with this image: I’ve hinted about this in an early trailer, where the drone goes through some mysterious portal, but I’ve kept this secret for a while. Behind the overworld map that I’ve been showing this entire time, there is another interconnected breach world in an alternate dimension. Here’s the big reveal: Axiom Verge 2 is two worlds in one. I’ve talked a little in the past about some of the technical challenges of making Axiom Verge 2, particularly the earth-like sloping terrain and the intelligent enemies, but I’ve never revealed the biggest challenge and most distinctive feature of Axiom Verge 2…until now. So I decided to push myself and try something ambitious.
