I never went to Calaca's stage at all. The fact that the good ending is only available through additional shenanigans is just infuriating. Also, content-wise it wasn't a very varied game. I liked it for what is was worth, though.

Yeah, Guacamelee was fun for what it was, but it was a Metroidvania and those have a really big problem with overstaying their welcome.

I liked it for what is was worth, though. Yeah I wasn't upset that I bought it, I just felt the endgame needed to dial it back, even Jaguar's stage was a bit beyond the platforming I really wanted to do. Props to them for the overall design though, the combat, the platforming, and everything else blends together nicely.

Usually the DS playthrough can trudge through Pat's weird "read all the lore, never read a single guide" quirk, but they're at the point where his misrepresentation of information is actively slowing them down really hard. Mainly the "Navlan only invades if you were hollow when you freed him" and the whole Giants souls mechanic with Vendrick.

I like how Vendrick's boring rear end fight makes it on the to-do list but Darklurker's been completely forgotten about

Yeesh. Are they still hungover at this point? Aside from rolling through the Giant Lord's swings, holy poo poo Woolie kind of played like dogshit in this episode.

It could be possible Woolie and Pat are like hour 7 into a sessions because they probably wanted to beat the main game before the duo go to Japan for a month effectively.

Guacamelee's pretty good, but you need to know that it's not so much a Metroidvania as it is a challenging platformer with Metroid elements. A lot of people go into it expecting SoTN-level platforming and get wrecked. Honestly, I didn't find it to be all that hard (although I didn't go for Tree Tops), and I'm not great at these types of games. In fact, that's probably why I really liked Guacamelee, it's got the right level of platforming, simple but rewarding combat system and optional stuff. Also, the hell, doing obtuse "secret" stuff to get a good ending is a proud tradition of Metroidvanias dating back to SoTN.

Blockhouse posted:He really goes straight DSP against Navlaan Whoa now, let's not say anything we can't take back. Not that I wasn't having to restrain myself from dope-slapping the screen when he was trying to tank Navlaan by blocking with a greatsword, but at least he doesn't act surprised when he gets his rear end kicked after failing to dodge or manage his items properly.

Honestly, I think it's better to die a bunch of times 2-handing weapons than slowly progress by 1-handing. You get better at the game much faster when you don't slowly cheese enemies with shields. If only Woolie could learn to switch to 1-h when he needs to block and then quickly 2-h when he needs to attack Minorkos fucked around with this message at 11:34 on Oct 6, 2014 |

He needs to take out the feather from his item rotation, because the number of times he has it equipped instead of healing has been increasing lately.

You can wait for the statue head to roll and kill the giants. Was getting a little annoyed at the impatience. Woolie completely destroyed the boss though. Made it look easy even.

Minorkos posted:*Woolie two-hands his greatsword against Giant Lord, whose attacks are largely unblockable* Oh the Giant Lord was fine, Woolie handled that like a pro, that just made it more mind boggling that he stopped dodging and just stood there holding a great sword ineffectually in front of his face when Navlaan showed up.

Ever make a dumb mistake? Happens to all of us, I don't think we should hold Woolie to a unrealistically high standard of play for his (kinda) first Souls experience.

There's nothing unrealistic about that standard though, he's been mostly doing fine all game and then he just stands there and blocks with his sword. Twice.

He's been using shields for 90% of the playthrough, then he switches to 2h outta nowhere after playing for god knows how long and muscle memory fucks him over. It's fine. Geez, I'm never showing you guys my first DS2 playthroughs, I'm pretty sure I died enough to clear out some enemies at some areas.

Thinking Woolie will never make a dumb mistake is extremely unrealistic, yes. I've played about 400 hours of Souls games, and I guarantee if you recorded 30 hours of footage where I played and talked at the same time, you'd find a few fuckups on that level.
