HiFi Rush Very Hard Mode

A LOT OF FUN /10

My Personal GOTY (yet)

Gameplay : DMC married with rythm game with a bit Kingdom Hearts mech x some mech from old n new action games with good boss mechanics

Pro

- The combat progression is so good, but it has a slow start until you upgrades some combo n perks..

in Very Hard mode, you really cant mash button.. mid to late game need a lot of effisien combo with partners and perfect parry..

-The QTE mode is a highlight of the gameplay, with seamless integration in puzzle and cooperative challenges.

- The sound design is incredible..

- the soundtrack is banger.., both in stream mode / not.

- The controls are very well done

- some transitions between 3D gameplay, 2D cutscenes, and rendered cutscenes are awesome.

- The bosses are pure blast with creative mechanics

- Every chapter theres always new type of mobs that need more spesific combo, parry & partner to fight..

- a lot of custom perks, special attacks, and combos that you can combine depending on your playstyle.

- The English voice acting - superb..

- Although the plot is average, but with HQ voice acting, well written pacing, immersive presentation, endearing characters, and smooth animation elevate the overall experience... FUN!

- Theres End Game content (free Roam to every chp)

Cons

- There is this forced parry mechanics of which unnecessarily punishing in this game that can be frustrating (especially in Very Hard mode), failing to do perfect parry lead to death n requires player to repeat the entire fight all over again, including phase 1 in some cases.

- so many perks but its very limited use in late game
