The Mine Flayer is actually a Dungeons and Dragons reference. Illithids, or 'Mind Flayers', are squid-headed humanoid monstrosities with terrible psychic domination powers. They also grapple onto the heads of victims they can't, or don't want to, dominate and suck their brain out through their skull.

And yes, trap sprung.

Supply drop has made this game much more charitable, I think that the devs took their critics' words to heart

What Master Rounds has Scruffy turned in so far?

I think my biggest issue in the game right now is that I can't really progress.

I can't even unlock the first shop to spend my Credits, because I keep dying on the second floor, making what I do moot.

Managed to get master round on treadnaught on my first go (yay!) - Had Shades' Pistol as a drop, so that was cool

Where does it keep your record of all the times you've died? I didn't see it in the ammonomicon.

Haven't unlocked the Makeshift Cannon, but from the Wiki it looks like it would probably one-shot a boss. Does anyone in this thread actually have it unlocked? I've played this game to the point that I've unlocked everything besides the last few hunting quest guns and am still only part way through the one that requires me to kill 30 Shelletons. Did people actually grind out that quest using the shortcuts or just use a cheat engine or something?

Edit 2: Here's a challenge run for Scruffy that I would love to see: Reset until you get Casey in the first floor shop. Buy it and then complete a full run using only the bat. Given it does not have ammo and there's nothing you absolutely could not kill with it (though there are certainly varying degrees of difficulty in that endeavor), I think it'd make for a pretty interesting scenario.

So, apparently Gun Reaper can get jammed. That's neat. I mean, I know anyone can get jammed, but to see it...

I have a question about two things we haven't seen in the LP yet, specifically, but it is just item stuff. Does the Rad Gun synergize with the Cog of War?

For those who haven't seen it yet, the Cog is a passive that adds a little tick mark to your reload bar. If you click reload or fire when the line gets to the mark, you get a bonus to damage and possibly fire speed (and a faster reload too, I guess). As long as you keep reloading and getting the timing right, you keep the bonus

The Rad Gun is a gun that wears sunglasses and a backwards baseball cap. It has this gimmick baked into it, but each successive good reload increases the bonus. I don't know the numbers, but it does get faster/more powerful up to at least 3 levels. The bonus timing also gets faster as you go up in levels.

It's not great for boss fights, as I tend to need to focus on other things like not getting hit, but if that stacks I can only imagine the bonus.

I'm on that too. Are bullet sharks just the big ones or do the small count?

CzarChasm posted:

So...Protip: Don't open glitchy chests

I don't know what the actual chances of seeing one are, I'm guessing low. Like 1% kind of low. It's a bad time.

It actually fixed itself after they go to the next floor.

E: And then it happens again, but this time the cocommentators are in sync but both ahead of the video. Does it desync per floor or something?

Oh hey, we did that musical for one of the high school productions I played in. Are you a cast member or in the pit orchestra?

SkyTalon2314 posted:

I dunno. Given that I mentally picture Scruffy as, well, Scruffy like his avatar, I would be rather amused by this.

I mean, heck, back in Shakespear's times they DID have dudes playing the ladies. Romeo and Juliet was a guy and another guy who was in drag smoochin'.

Scruffy, is everyone else in your community theater production of Legally Blonde also in the military?

honestly i was talking more about vocal quality, you have a deep voice but hey if you got range enough to play a woman more power to ya

NoEyedSquareGuy posted:

You use the Wax Wings to cheat at Winchesters game and get the BSG, a gun which kills every enemy in the room with a single shot. You then proceed to clear every room down to the Dragun with the Witch Pistol. You then go down to Bullet Hell, openly state that it's not the place to conserve your ammo needlessly, then proceed to clear it out with all your guns other than the BSG besides one or two rooms.

Why must you do this? It's like getting Gunther out of a chest and then finishing the rest of the game with your starter pistol.

Now, I'm unclear on something. Every time you want to do a past, you have to buy the bullet that can kill the past, correct? But you only need to gather the materials for it the one time?

Cerebral Bore posted:

Actually the Full Metal Jacket doesn't absorb bullets, rather it automatically uses one of your blanks when you're about to get hit. It's super good if you're trying to get all the master rounds in one run.

Spudd posted:

I missed all the worrying sounds you make when you're in danger.

I'm really glad this is back, any plans for future videos or are they going to be you attempting to get your groove back?

Here's a question: does the Robot take damage from the Electrified Blank? Since he's immune to electricity and all.

What's the maximum number of gluon stones one can have?

So the things everyone was regretting enough to come to the Gungeon

Hunter- Being cryogenically frozen for a couple of centuries
Marine- Cowardice during a DOOM scenario where all his comrades died
Pilot- Abandoning his partner to the space police
Convict- not killing the police hard enough when they came to arrest her
Bullet- Not killing Cannondorf
Robot- Letting the last human live instead of killing her


Does the game normally stop you from taking the original 'wrong' option in the Past or was that unique to the Robot?

Scruff I don't 100% remember if we've seen her in game but why not do a blessed run next?

Hey uh, scruffy... you were saying how much you wanted to see the hell muncher...

Another pulse-pounding episode, in which I make it to Bullet Hell, talk about how nice it would be to find a hell muncher, and fail to notice one sitting in plain sight right before the boss until I start editing.

Here's my usual playthrough of this game:

Level 1: Make it through with relative ease until the boss. Can rarely get a master round if I'm on point and have a good gun.
Level 2: Struggle almost constantly, can occasionally kill the boss if I have a good gun and enough health to tank inevitable hits.
Level 3: Die horribly, usually before the boss.

I'd ask for help but I think the problem is I just suck at this game.

generally I prefer posted:

So I got this game thanks to the LP and needing an Isaac replacement and goddamn do you make it look easy, Scruffy. I can just about reliably get to the second floor after logging about 6 hours on it, but I've only ever made it to the second floor boss once (Gorgun) and died VERY quickly afterwards.

You may only use your sidearm on the bosses, disabling all passives?

And hey Scruffy, does this still work post Supply Drop? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KUflIq_4gNs I don't have a second controller to test it, and I'd love to see if the Cultist has a past. That exact video was actually the first I'd seen of the game

Finally got around to picking the game up due to your lp. I've done reasonably well, learning the boss patterns is what's been ending most of my runs, but it is getting better. I can't remember, but did you have any runs where you ran into the shadow magician? All of a sudden I've hit him like every other run the last six or seven runs. Not terribly difficult, but a bit of a surprise the first time I wandered in and saw him.
