The last two stages of this game absolutely ruin the good time I was having with it.
It feels as if the motion controls for the end of the game were ridiculously rushed, so they are spastic and often just don't respond. The sword fighting doesn't like to respond randomly, cranks don't crank, and that motherfucking anchor can rot in hell forever. Using "your imagination" to figure out how to manipulate objects would have been fine if it weren't limited to the programming of the game. Though, the day we get that is the day when machines are sentient and rule us, so maybe I should be glad this final battle sucks the fun out of this otherwise wonderful game.
Now, if you will excuse me, I'm going to continue to struggle cranking backwards so that I can pull a crocodile mech towards me and shoot it point blank in the face with living pirate goons transformed into thoughtless totems for my convenience
Yeah I know what you mean. The last "puzzle style" level had a few minor frustrating parts but that last fight was easily the least responsive part of the game. It's just like you said, it seems like they just had to slap that together. It seems really out of place too because the rest of the game controlled wonderfully.
At the same time, I love the post-game. If only they didn't want me to wait for Maddy to bring Lore back, I would have thought it brilliant. Thank God for GameFAQs.
I only recently started playing this game for the first time. I'm really enjoying it as it has a great deal of charm and some really fun and unique puzzles. A definite must have title for Wii owners.
It was pretty much the greatest game ever made until I got to the fishing mini-game and couldn't even trigger the rod to respond half the time, even though I'm holding the controller like the picture and performing the motion like the little man is. Now it's the worst game ever because motion controls are shit.
It powered on randomly so I used it. I was worried about fishing him out fast enough for a perfect score but luckily there was an alternate solution, which is cool in and of itself.
