However, that approach wouldn’t make sense in this universe, so while it shares some common ground with other musou titles, the core play is very different. This setup lends itself well to being a videogame, and since Omega Force (of Dynasty Warriors fame) are involved, it’d be easy to assume that this would be another musou title, battering titans by the hundreds in close quarters combat. This airborne traversal is doubly handy since the only way to kill a titan is to slice clean through the nape of its neck, so this additional verticality when attacking is key to success. It’s a pretty cool way to traverse the environments, and it can be exhilarating to hurl from one side of the map to the other, sailing over rooftops.

As a result, they’ve developed omnidirectional combat gear harnesses which allow them to shoot out high-tensile wires into nearby surfaces and zip around the place like Spider-Man. Naturally, since the titans in question are routinely between five and fifteen meters tall – with a few abnormals popping up from time to time that are significantly more imposing or intelligent – humans can’t fight them in a conventional manner. Yes, the world of Attack on Titan is an interesting one. Since it’s based on an anime, however, what better way to fend off these lumbering monstrosities than by unleashing some scared, angry, yelling teenagers on the gluttonous buggers? That’ll show ’em, mark my words! That’s bad news for everyone inside, given that the colossal skinless freak is accompanied by hundreds of his nude chums who’ve all shown up with the intention of gobbling down any human they can get their hands on.

Some days it seems like the last remnants of humanity can’t even enjoy a hundred years of peace before a gigantic titan appears and nonchalantly kicks holes in the walls of their final stronghold. WTF They cut out Sasha’s potato scene? Why? WHY?!?!īloody typical. LOW The combat and mission structures are way too repetitive.

HIGH Soaring through the air at breakneck speeds.
