-HP/MP Ups that were found were all restored.
-A bunch of opened chests were reset.

But the game breaker is:

-A bunch of unopened chests are now registered as opened. Including one that held a plot critical item needed to advance. If you haven't yet gotten to the chest, you're hosed on that playthrough.

yeesh, what triggered this bug?

In the year 3000..

I've read the chest is in the tower area and you can see the chest from the start of that zone, but you dont open it until after the boss.

I just got to that area before calling it for the night and now I'm sitting at work worried about having to start over.

Hey, buddy. :glomp:



It's the chest at the bottom of the right hand tower of the Twin Towers. You can't access it until after the Twin Dragon boss, but can see it when you reach that general area by going right as far as you can when you see the first tower.

Speaking of ammo ups what's the starting default maximum for SP/HP rounds? I only have like ten anyway but I want to know if I should be judicious in using them or just pull my gats out at will (I know I have infinite lovely ammo but still)

If you equip a gun it will show the maximum under your current ammo count in the top left. E.G. on the galleon before any upgrades you'll have "10/29" SP bullets, meaning the max you can carry is 29.

I haven't used guns or bullets at all so far except as crafting ingredients. Why would I spend my hard-earned money and materials on single-use bullets that do damage equal to or slightly less than my main weapon when I could use ranged-attack magic for free and do more damage?

Yes, you can attach your backer ID at any time from what I saw. I had already played a few hours before remembering about it, so I just picked my save file and hit Y for "Options".

Did they offer an explanation for why the Switch version is delayed a week?

It can't possibly be for developement reasons, the game had to have gone gold weeks ago.

I don't know if they officially announced something, but if you look at the PAX East update from April, they were still optimizing a build for the final release.

Anyone with a 1920 x 1200 monitor: use 'fullscreen borderless' mode, which is actually fullscreen BORDERFUL mode. It will make your aspect ratio correct and add a top and bottom border.

Also, has anyone else got sekiro/souls /hollow knight itis? I was doing a boss and thought "when I get really good at the boss I'll use my potions". I did, and still died. I then noticed later that I still had those potions when I reloaded. I'm used to using things up and them being gone forever. That's a weird thing to be used to!

Finally: did anyone else find curse of the moon too hard and old school? Should I go back and try it some more? I never played the old original castlevanias.

I guess I’m a bit stuck right now. I’ve just gotten the invert power here in the late game, so I’ve been trying to figure out where to go, and I’m quickly running out of places to check. I’m sure that I’ve missed something, but right now, the only leads that I can think of are the top of the entrance hall of the castle, but that’s a path blocked with spikes, and then I spotted a door to another area near the top of the leftmost cathedral bell tower, but I can’t seem to reach it from this side?

Where should I go and how the hell do I even get there?

The only thought of Hollow Knight I've had in the past 24 hours is how much I'll never want to play that poo poo ever again and just want Iga to keep making these games so nobody else has to.

Curse of the Moon is a lot easier than OG Castlevania because you can freely and quickly switch between 4 different characters, assuming you get them all, which not only gives you a huge range of abilities, also gives you a lot of HP to work with if you're good at managing your life bars. You can also turn off the "get knocked back on hit" thing when you start/load a file, which makes the game waaaay more manageable. I'd say you should go back and give it another go, but if you were finding it rough, see about turning down some of the difficulty options.

There is an armor you can get in the same area as the clocktower boss was once you have the invert power, you can use that to traverse the spikes.

Apparently they released 1.02 patch that includes a lot of balance changes, swaps chest contents and can potentially break older save files because of this?

Or so I heard.

Both games can be good. I like Hollow Knight’s art and music more than this games even if I think this game has more mechanical depth.

Playing on PC, I've twice now had the game freeze and become completely unresponsive right when an enemy died, although I guess it wasn't completely frozen since the background music was still playing.

Both times I had to force-quit the game and start from my last save again.

Yes and yes. On the first boss my thinking for the first attempt was "I should hold onto my potions until I know what I'm doing since I won't be able to get more if I need them", then like an idiot I was surprised to find them back in my inventory when I inevitably died from not healing. It's a double-edged sword though because it really reminds you of how forgiving the Souls-style "die but keep all your poo poo" system is.

And yeah I didn't get too far in Curse of the Moon either.

I've had a bunch of freezes (about 5 in 3.5 hours), mostly on the inventory screen. I had one freeze when reading a book and I paged out and back, and the game was running properly. All other freezes have made me need to end the process in task manager.

The bugs are only happening if you played the game before the actual release and then patched your game with the day 1 patch, if you're starting today from the latest patch you shouldn't have those issues.
