I play Dora because Revenge of Death Adder is the only remotely good beatemup in this franchise.
Golden Axe 1 and 2 are sub-Konami tier dogshit and 3 is a Maximum Carnage level mediocre skippable mess. This is the fucking console that had Streets of Rage 2, the all time best game in the genre on it. Fuck Golden Axe.

atmosphere is pretty great, gameplay is "good enough", does not overstay its welcome. I've got a soft spot for it but I probably wouldn't like it if it were more than 25 minutes long.

In coop, someone should always take Tyris and the other player should let her take all the magic power ups so that she can nuke shit as often as possible.

>> No.7329390

Difficulty and characters are separate things just like a lot of other beatemups. Gillius is just the best character the same way Max is god tier in SoR2 or Mustapha is god tier in Cadillacs Vs Dinosaurs

>>7329370
It's not literally the difficulty select, but the characters are so poorly balanced that it might as well be.

Magic is pretty underpowered in the game because it's a scarce resource. As such, the only thing that really matters is

Tyris has the weakest attacks, and the strongest magic. But magic isn't a big enough part of the game to be worthwhile unless hogging potions in multiplayer.

Ax is the middle of the road.

Gilius has the shittiest magic and the strongest attack, and his rear attack is a fucking get out of jail free roll.

>> No.7331481

>>7329370
Not really. That anon is fucking retarded. The actual pecking order is Tyris > Gilius > Ax
Tyris is the best character because of her running attack having the best hitbox of the 3, and being able to cheese literally anything with it, including the final boss. It's safe as fuck to use, and will very rarely get punished.
Gilius' is decent, but can't compare to Tyris'.
Ax's shoulder tackle is just straight up shit and is just asking to get countered.
Magic is largely irrelevant, and is best used as a "Get out of jail free" card. Strength is also irrelevant as the only effective means of killing enemies are the running jump attack, the running attack, and tricking enemies into falling off the stage.

i never noticed a difference with dash attacks. if you did them too early or too late, the sword dudes would still slice you, regardless of who you were, and it was still the best way to take them out (except for gilius's roll attack).
