What did you say the strategy was?

I liked the first one better because it was more it’s own thing

And the story wasn’t quite as far up its own rear end.

Which ori is second Ori? I've got the blind first one, it's okay but I give 0 shits about the story and some of the platforming is some real bullshit. The combat is medium at best

No combat in the first one so you must have the second.

What? There is definitely combat in the first Ori. Ori 1 is Blind Forest, Ori 2 is Will of the Wisps.

I liked both Ori games, I just thought the Will of the Wisps story had more than a couple beats where it felt like the plot was sledgehammering me with stuff that was attempting to be like a Pixar movie rug pull.

To me, the plots are the worst part of those games.

There are definitely some fun improvements in Ori 2, and when I started playing it I thought I was going to enjoy it a lot more than the first. But, by the end, a lot of aspects of 2 ended up feeling half-baked.

The combat in 1 is like, "press button to shoot homing things at enemies" and in 2 it's straight up Hollow Knight nail sword. It definitely feels very different.

Maybe I forgot but all I remember from Ori 1s "combat" is the thing following you that shoots at stuff if you hit the button. I dont' remember any aiming or anything where you actually engage which is why I saw there isn't any combat. But maybe I am forgetting something.

Silksong's release date will be announced on June 11th. It will release the very next day.

When they said on or before the 12th of June they fuckin' meant it.

It rules because my wife loved Ori 1 but isn't great at games and bought me Ori 2 so she could experience it vicariously and by the end of it she was in tears cutting every session short to go take a depression nap. To this day she calls it "the betrayal game."

I think that’s why I hated the “ISNT THIS SAD” moments more. It wouldn’t have called as much attention to the rest.
