Can we have a thread about games that are in first person, but aren't necessarily shooters? Pic related is pretty awesome and one of my favorite DC games. Shame that not many people played it as it has some unique gameplay features and branching paths that lead to 7 different endings.

Only thing I know about this game is the amazing as always art by Kazuma Kaneko. I really think some of his ballsiest and crazier designs are in this one. The game seemed okay, the first person sword gimmick was kinda neat.

Only other game like this, as in first person with a sword, that I know is probably some samura/ninja-y arcade game.

I'd also put Jumping Flash forward because while there is some shooting, just the movement and environments set it apart from your general "FPS"es as most know them.

>>	Anonymous Wed Dec 23 02:05:15 2015 No.2871215 >>2871191 The PS2 version is entirely third person whereas the Dreamcast one is entirely first person.

I just got that shit and a Dreamcast OP, it's fucking tight. The gameplay is actually more complex than it looks on the surface and the graphics and sound design are second to none. I love how well Kaneko's art translates to 3D. And the voice acting is endearingly cheesy. Probably a must-own for any Dreamcast owner.

>>	Anonymous Wed Dec 23 02:55:42 2015 No.2871260 >>2871234 Not that I know of.

>>	Anonymous Wed Dec 23 03:08:28 2015 No.2871269 >>2871239 Not him, but the PS2 version is horrible. It feels an looks cheaper. It also has worse music.

>>	Anonymous Wed Dec 23 04:25:51 2015 No.2871349 >>2871260 That's too bad, half the fun of the Wii version for me was the obtuse as fuck dialogue.
