Anyone having issues with VS not saving your progress? I was able to unlock the hidden character and the adventures. But while the character didn't unlock. I reset my game and need to unlock those two things again for some reason.

Holocure, Irys from the second set of characters is a great money maker. I gave her the coin-generating sticker and it just about covered the screen in coins because her basic attack is a multi-hit stream. Picked up ~90k from a single level.RoboCicero posted:Did not recognize Pugnala at first, haha. I didn't realize Pugnala was female. Given her rendering in the trailer, that's probably for the best.

Took a while but I read the whole thread. It was interesting to see VS' development and your reactions to it. Discussion of other similar games (I like to call them "monster mulchers") was a bit confusing, though. That said, I have HoloCure and Halls of Torment bookmarked for the future. Anyway, VS good game.  I started to get a little bored towards the end, honestly. It was really difficult to find my way around the final level with the screen full of crap (and without a map), but I managed to finish it. Was surprised that the unlocks/cheevos didn't cover everything in the game. There wasn't one for completing the collection, or the bestiary, or unlocking all the secret characters (I think I have half of them). Oh well.

Holocure will possibly be in EA indefinitely - it's a non-profit side project by the solo dev (whose day job is in animation) and it updates once or twice a year. IMO you could just wait till next update, which should be dropping somewhere in early 2024, and give it a try then.

ExiledTinkerer posted:Start of Early Access for BloodDome99 I'm getting pretty sick of feaux retro arcade aesthetics, but this works for me. Gonna give it a shot, especially with that 20% discount (off of $2.80). edit: it's real good. I think it's more of an arena based rogue-lite than VS-like (mostly because you control your weapons) but upgrades come fast, feel meaningful, and things get very hectic very quickly. There is metacurrency to unlock additional weapons, but nothing you start with feels so underpowered that you have to grind to start having fun. There's a demo so you can give it a spin before pulling the trigger if you want. BrianRx fucked around with this message at 23:50 on Dec 8, 2023 |

This is from their 1.0 announcement post: I've been playing this for about 4 hours now and the metaprogression is interesting but so goddamned slow. Feels like it takes 2 or 3 runs minimum to unlock a single skill point, and in between runs i'm desperately shuffling skill points around to feel like I'm making any kind of progress. I can flawless the first boss no sweat, I'm learning the second boss, have barely touched the third boss. The last couple runs I've gotten so sick of starting with very little gas in the tank + getting absolute garbage on rerolls that i've started dumping all the skill points into rerolls so i can laser-focus one item down, get 8 upgrades, die, and then go take a peek at the new item that unlocked and see if it's interesting.

Yeah, metaprogression is fairly slow and the start of a run even more so. Fast forward button helps with the first like, 3 minutes and usually after that it starts bumping. The survivability upgrade tree can get you really far in a run (3 health vials on pickup, +hp on a boss kill, resist death and live with 1 hp, auto black hole, one extra life), though the "rainbow enemies trigger a chain explosion when they die" can save you a lot of HP too. I'm currently trying to flawless the first four bosses, so I'm mostly stacking movespeed and XP. Bullet Time (time moves 25% when you're sneaking) is critical.

Game wont load from startup and it seems to be hanging on loading my old save from launch tried turning off cloud saves and deleting my old saves(dont care about losing progress), verifying game files, reinstalling the game, nothing works not sure what else to try

I don't know if he's super weak or I was just building him wrong but I failed getting to agony 3 a bunch with him too because he just doesn't kill stuff fast enough in that level. I ended up having to use that armor piece (I think it's arms?) that makes your abilities 66 percent stronger if you don't attack, turning off auto attacks and just magic needling/radiant auraing everything to death instead and it was so much easier

He is very strong but it all depends on how many upgrades you have purchased. Try running with ice stuff, the newest weapon, the one that has 4 icicles circling you, is extremely strong. Edit: Maybe it is impossible, I just tried it just to show you how to do it but I barely made it to agony 3 with like 4 minutes to spare and this is with all the blessings, the best equipment etc. I did have really bad luck where I only got avalanche with 4 minutes left but still. I saw there this is a new update on the experimental branch where they will change how agony decays which should make this easier because the issue is that agony decays so fast on frozen depths. On the other maps its not a problem.

Yeah the agony update feels great IMO I've been playing on the beta branch and it's night and day. It becomes a DPS race since Agony goes up on its own every 5 minutes.

I've given this one a few more days to see if I can go all-in on a certain skill tree, or grab a few important-looking abilities, or something else along those lines, and it's just so miserable The item pool gets diluted fast, but you can't get rerolls and bans without spending skill points on each extra one of them, which feels like a waste because you have to invest about halfway into a couple skill trees in order to get some of the more useful upgrades. Eventually I get stuck putting up with the same few items I don't want on my build, because the game will just refuse to roll me the Level 2 upgrade to the only weapon that I wanted to grab for that run. I feel heavily at the mercy of the Upgrade RNG way, way worse than the mercy of the Bullet Hell RPG. The number of times that I've died to Boss 3 because I couldn't upgrade a single weapon past Level 3... I think part of the problem is how unstructured the upgrades are. VS gives you 6 weapons, 6 passives, and chests will, at worst, give you a single level for a weapon or item you already have. Even if you flawless a boss in Picayune, you're still only getting what amounts to a free level-up so if you're light on rerolls/bans, you're going to have to pick through poo poo. I wanna like it, but I feel like I need to load up cheatengine to give myself 1000 skill points before I'd actually have fun with it

OK but seriously I've followed every guide and done everything that should be correct but the adventure mode isn't unlocking in VS. All of the guides say to just make it to the 7 min mark in Boss Rash and the item will spawn in the middle but I've done it 6 times on different characters and nothing. I'm clearly doing something wrong here.
