Image / Video Fluid & Satisfying combat in Control Resonant

Enable HLS to view with audio, or disable this notification

FOV is at 65 instead of default 100 to make it more cinematic, but it makes the game harder (harder to have enemy-awareness, hard to do very quick traversal movement etc). i still do think you should play at like 80 FOV or something compared to 100

If someone showed me this and said this is the sequel to control I’d tell them to gtfo.

142

u/Novapierce_ 19d ago

i mean, if control 2 had the same shooting mechanics of control 1 it would be kinda boring, its actually a good thing that this time its a melee based hack'n'slash so that people who wanted variety can enjoy AND newer fans can join in too! from a story prespective it makes sense too, why would jesse's brother be good at shooting too? and jesse got the gun from the director so dylan wouldn't be able to use a gun anyways lol...

85

u/Endiaron 19d ago

Yes, but you're looking at it from the perspective of knowing what Resonant was gonna be like. Back in the day I think everyone thought a sequel would be about Jesse, so similar gameplay to Control was expected.

14

u/Novapierce_ 19d ago

yeah, i played control in like 2022, then saw the control 2 scene in alan wake 2 and was like "yay more jesse time!!" but then i saw it was a melee game and was like "whyyy i dont want another damn melee combat game" but eventually i started playing hacknslashers, soulslikes, etc and now really enjoy control resonant. it would be kinda lame if it was another 3rd person shooter now that i think about it because, basically every gun type was explored in control 1, the only thing control 2 would be different in was maybe adding more telekenesis moves and all but yeah.. thats my take on it

u/GooginTheBirdsFan 19d ago

Soulslike and hack n slash are two pretty different styles and if anybody called bloodborne a hack n slash I’d probably think they meant another game

u/pjb1999 19d ago

Exactly why I haven't picked this up yet. I really loved Control but this game looks so much different. More like a spin off and not a proper sequel. I just wanted more Control. Not whatever this is.

Having said that, I'm sure Resonant is great and I'll eventually play it but it's an easy wait for a sale instead of a day one purchase.

25

u/Kronos9898 19d ago

I mean it very much is more control. It’s just melee as opposed to ranged focused.

Everything else you loved about control is there.

13

u/MationMac 19d ago

The reception to comments like yours in cases like this is interesting.

The combat differences between the games is frequently commented as being pretty stark but when someone (in this case you) do not favor the changes, they are downplayed.

Alan Wake was like Max Payne injected with Silent Hill, while the sequel seemed to have no Max Payne DNA. It is only natural that the audience opinions shift.

3

u/Yxanr 19d ago

Personally, I used a lot of the movement and close-range abilities in the original Control, so the combat in Resonant feels more like an evolution to me than a change in direction. Though, I can't say I don't sometimes feel myself reaching for a gun that isn't there after taking out a group close to me and seeing an enemy in the distance. I can see the gameplay seeming more different to someone who played the original more reservedly compared to someone who played aggressively like myself. Really just depends on your perspective. Some see Control as a shooter, some see it as an action game with a gun.

There's no arguing the tonal shift, though. Sort of like how AW2 shifted to slower-paced horror from the action thriller that was the first game, Resonant is more action-packed and whereas Control felt more like the game was giving you the space to solve each mystery one at a time, Resonant feels like it kind of throws everything at you at once.

I like it, personally, keeps things fresh and the change of pace feels apt for a seasoned player of the first game, but I understand those seeking familiarity.

Welcome back DmC - Devil May Cry

35

u/cconnorss 19d ago

I have been championing DmC, that specific one-off with the heaven and hell fighting system, since its inception!

There are complaints about the story and character design. Fuck all that. That game played ✨Wonderfully✨. Its emo-anime-esqué style was fun with some real life political commentary sprinkled in. Loved it and was hoping to continue the path.

I ain’t mad at DMCV at all! Love the return to form. But that combat system was nothing to write off.

9

u/MTH1138 19d ago

Yeah, the combat gameplay is very good

5

u/Truckfighta 19d ago

Justice for DmC!

6

u/dickcheese_on_rye 19d ago

I don’t think anyone criticized the combat of DmC. It plays great. Once you get used to the trigger switching abilities it’s combo heaven.

But it brutalized the characters and story of the series so, so, SO badly that they really should have just made a new IP instead.

People keep saying the combat is the weakest part of the game and they may be right but it's because every aspect of this game is damn near perfect not because the combat is bad

u/Quanathan_Chi 19d ago

Hitting things with a stick feels good and it's kept me entertained for the 20 or so hours I've gotten out of it so far (haven't finished the story but it's been great so far)

u/13thsword 19d ago

Yeah I'm about 20 hours in as well and just found a combo of abilities and weapons I like and somehow it's even better than before

u/Quanathan_Chi 19d ago

I've been mostly running Glaive and Hammer but I recently switched my secondary to the Whip and that thing feels awesome once you get the timing down.

u/LnktheWolf 19d ago

Started with glaive hammer, went to glaive whip, but I decided I wanted to try strike out and holy shit I might be converted.

Strike for the fast paced crits, ship for a little AOE, fists (cant remember the name atm) for more stun is a fantastic combo.

Does the game have any TK abilities like the first? I really enjoyed using environmental elements in combat.

obviously yeah, and wayy more. theres introduction of elemental abilities and wierd quirky ones like summons and stuff too. its way more complex than the 1st one

u/Promature 19d ago

The video showed every version of Jesse’s powers that Dylan has.

8

u/AlwaysTouchingGrass 19d ago

As far as I've played, not to the same degree as Control 1. Like most of your abilities will tear apart the environment, but its mostly visual compared to how it was in the first game, if that makes sense. So like yes, there are a ton of TK abilities, but they don't feel as organic.

I have no idea if that makes sense lmao, I'm so sorry

4

u/Ethifury 19d ago

I disagree with that. I don’t know how far you are into the game but the TK abilities are just as present as Jesse. And I wouldn’t say they are “purely visual”. Towards the end of the game (where Im at currently), everything feels organic. I can’t talk about some of his wackier abilities since I don’t want to spoil the experience for anyone. Since Dylan is the stronger parautilitarian, it makes sense his powers are more expressive and doesn’t revolve around the service gun since that’s contingent upon being The Director.

6

u/sticknotstick 19d ago

I’ve almost beat the game but he’s right. In Control 1 you are actively selecting parts of the environment to throw and they have different explosion/impact depending on what’s thrown, in Resonant you’re summoning debris that all functions the same and is often just concrete rubble.

That’s not a knock on Resonant, the faster-paced hack and slash gameplay focus demands that the TK abilities be less interactive - but they still are, compared to the first game.

u/Candaphlaf10 19d ago

I will say the gameplay and combat is very different from the first game, and the main menu has a recap video to refresh you on Control's story. It's not the same as experiencing the story naturally in my opinion, but you won't be left in the dark if you start Resonant before finishing the previous game.

There is no weapon switching in the video, its just cutting to different clips with different loadouts and using abilities like the slam as transitions between them.

The dubstep growls from the mysterious overlords never cease to give me goosebumps

u/ExileLost808 19d ago

Is this what an infamous or prototype game would look like in 2026?

2

u/gknight702 19d ago

Oh this is very different than Control... Looks like devil may cry

2

u/ProfessionalPlan8943 19d ago

Wow, the new max Payne looks good

This game was fucking gas, when you get later into the game the combat goes BONKERS. Same bones but you are just SHREDDING and going so fast and doing everything all the time it's awesome. It felt so awesome. The setpieces are truly some of the best I've ever seen in gaming period. Maybe my fav all time.

u/dathowell 19d ago

Close enough, welcome back Prototype

2

u/Silencer-Matrix 19d ago

Just like Prototype

2

u/MisguidedGhost6021 19d ago

Awesome game

2

u/6B0T 19d ago

No spoilers as I'm waiting for my steelbook to play this, but can anyone tell me if Launch is still used in this game? I really enjoyed that from the original Control, so just wondering.

2

u/Lesheef 19d ago

It looks like a completely different game to control, I like what I see though.

2

u/Ok_Entrepreneur826 19d ago

Really liked the first one. It was such a weird trip. This seems so different

2

u/link815 18d ago

The weirdness is still very much there. They changed the combat style, but it’s still 100% Control.

2

u/NYGBobby 19d ago

Love how remedy’s games are so distinct and unique from each other

2

u/justanothersimp2421 19d ago

Thought this was some modded DmC gameplay but holy shit is this just as good

u/Kamilpwn 19d ago

One little detail I like about the Control games is that the first one is focused on ranged combat, and the second one is focused on melee combat :)
