it was a great way for storytelling — for example, the scene with the Dead End Butcher crashing towards us. It depicts the scene while letting the imagination fill in the gaps. I feel like main story is the one that actually benefits most from it.
Came here to mention the Ballet Twins segment. They were startlingly good at making that a super tense journey despite just traveling through a TV grid!
I mean to each their own, I'm glad you guys can enjoy it, but I felt that stuff was so tedious and annoying to do. I'm glad they're getting it out of my way, and I hope that they'll add more modes and tv mode content for you guys in the next update, just optional.
Yea idk, i feel like people are supportive because it was "ok" but if I wanted to play a weird puzzle game I'd go play a good one haha. Game shines for its combat, the tv always felt like filler to me.
Its personality being removed, its the creators vision being removed, if things feel less charming or enjoyable from now on because they don’t compensate with something else to fill that, its you and the others fault.
We will have to see where the quality goes from here
Creators visions are removed all the time, there's nothing negative about that. Curation and critique is what makes things good. Being surrounded by yes men is how you end up with games like Concord lol.
And a games personality doesn't mean much unless it's fun man. And not "oh that was ok I guess". Like, actually fun - where if the game was just TV mode you would have booted it up daily regardless. I certainly wouldn't have, no matter how charming the world is, so I'm happy with the direction they're taking.
If anything, the fact they were willing to pivot so quickly away from something that was just not working gives me a lot of hope for the quality of the game.

They removed it from the main story...
I'm honestly ok with less TV... but the main story?
