My issue is that his 2nd phase uses a bunch of my death cards and I made some really good ones so I have to hope he doesn't pick those for me to have any chance of winning.
My cheese strategy has been to use the squirrel-head carving coupled with the "stink" base that lowers offense by 1 against the 3rd boss because I can basically force him to attack in a single lane which makes him manageable. I can use items to rush down the first phase of the final boss because some of those creatures are super hard to deal with but the 2nd phase is throwing me for a loop.

If you can luck into it, I found the squirrel evolution modifier to be really helpful. Makes for a nice swarm of damage that's more or less unlimited.

3 is solid but it's gone full overthetop goofy so you have to adjust expectations accordingly. Elton John is the villain now, the crafting system means you can break the game open with DevilMayCry melee attacks and sniperrifles built into shotguns, and the campaign was designed with co-op in mind so you miss out on plot nuance if you play singleplayer...

also there's a weird countrywestern trap labyrinth sidequest with a Space Cowboy Jigsaw with a folk song blasting on the ship radio called Harden Fard.

weird game. fun. but i sometimes feel like it's a parody of itself.

Yes, the joke was that I'm refusing to acknowledge that it exists. I rented it from Gamefly (or its precursor - I forget what it was called. Maybe it was Netflix?) and played for about an hour before I said "no thanks" and sent it back.

I can't have that AND the stink/attack lowering thing at the same time and without it (and without getting really lucky), beating the 3rd boss is a bitch since he one-shots anything you attack with.

i had a pair of pants turn sentient and discovered that i could turn it into a human.

i also made all the men learn that skillset that causes their dicks to fall off bc only women can learn it. then i turned those into artifacts that they could do chinese wizardry with.

it was only this post that made me realise the game being discussed was Amazing Cultivation Simulation

i initially thought it was Cultist Simulator and got extremely confused

cultist simulator - not ACS - is real easy once you realise you can click the slot where a card goes, and see what cards it accepts. and once you get a rough idea of what all the different principles are for

he's a pedophile but, and this isn't a joke, the only reason he's a pedophile is because when he was a kid the girl he had a crush on died in the holocaust

amazing cultivation simulator yeah. prewarning thaht the game is unapologetically dense w complex mechanics and doesntn explain itself well and, yo u will require outside resources to work out half of what the systems are doing. whehter that is a positive or a negative is left up to you.

amazing cultivation simulator, its a chinese rimworld clone thats all about running a daoist fantasy martial arts school where you cultivate Qi and your pawns eventually learn to transmute themselves into pure air and gain immortality and poo poo like that. it has a ridiculous amount of features, you better pay attention to feng shui when building your base because you will rapidly gently caress things up if you like place doors in inauspicious walls and anyway an ancient dragon may fly over and turn everyone into duck penises regardless. its kind of insane

Also as much as I absolutely adored the original Deadspace, it should never have gotten sequels with the same protagonist (even though DS2 was great). It was the perfect cosmic horror story with a definitive beginning and end and Isaac should never ever have survived the first game. It's not like he was Mr. Personality anyway - just make some new generic white guy for the sequel

Correct, there was only one sequel.

I agree w this but I will say that nothing in a game has ever made me feel more genuine & intense dread than having to make Isaac walk back onto the Ishimura in 2.
