I started my 3rd playthrough last night. I'm not completely lost like I was in my first playthrough, and not using a guide like I did in my second. Just wandering and enjoying the art and music. The first few bosses are really easy after you've played the game through a few times. And Mantis Lords with no upgrades is a lot of fun.

In “I’m definitely not that good” news, I finally got around to unlocking the Grimm fit. That’s a fun one to learn. Then I went and took a few shots at NKG. Wow. Talk about intense. It’ll take some time, but I’m pretty sure I can get him down.

Watched that video and got the urge to play again, so I went back and started working on a few achievements. I was following a guide for the 5 hour speedrun but got stuck on the Watcher Knights. So instead I loaded up my main file and finished off NKG. That is the most satisfying fight. Feels great to learn his patterns and how to react quickly enough. Maybe I should grind enough to hit Perfect Vessel... TheMadMilkman fucked around with this message at 18:13 on Nov 7, 2019 |

I found her to be a lot easier to learn than HK was, tbh. I get having a place where you’re just done with the game. There’s a few things that I still haven’t bothered to finish. But dang it, everyone should play long enough to experience NKG.

Organza Quiz posted:I'm the person who somehow totally missed the mantis lord fight altogether and merrily continued through most of the rest of the game before eventually seeing references to it online and looking up where it was. Same. I even went back to the mantis village a few times because I could see that there was something different with the floor. I just never managed to wander up to the correct switch to open it.

Organza Quiz posted:I'm personally stuck on the first Grimm fight since I can't for the life of me figure out dodging his bullet hell attack effectively and even if i dodge everything else perfectly that just takes too much health off me, but I just rebought the game on Steam so I'm hoping once I'm done replaying and get up to that again I'll be magically more in control of my jump height. We’re you playing on console before? Because I also recently bought the PC version on GOG and it really does feel completely different. It actually took me a long time to start competently pogoing on spikes again because I was so used to accounting for lag in the Switch version.

Watching that NKG had me thinking that ya, I could learn this but it would take 6 months and destroy my wrists. And then the 2nd NKG appeared and I was like, nope. Never gonna happen.

DeathChicken posted:And here I was proud of myself for beating the final boss with one HP left, frantically dodging lasers and taking one last diving swing at it. That's exactly how your first play through should go, honestly. But after 2 or 3 runs through you start getting pissed when you don't curb stomp every boss in under 20 seconds. Also, I agree that, thematically, PV fits with POP. But hell no.

DrBouvenstein posted:But persistence paid off, but so far not with that drat trial...furthest I can get is a couple waves past when you have to do several waves entirely wall jumping in a smaller space above spikes. Since you can't heal, I end up low on health, then can never get enough time to fully heal back. Watch some speed runs of the trials. It’s a great way to learn how to efficiently handle those sections.

I died dozens of times to some bosses. Lost Kin in particular took me a long time, as did normal Grimm. I got through the standard ending blind, and the hidden ending with some walkthrough help. Then I started watching speedruns, and realized I could play way better than I was. I was WAY too cautious and didn’t use spells nearly as often as I should have. I still struggle with some fights because I suck at watching two bosses at once, but I can tear most of them apart pretty easily. I’d seriously suggest watching some kills of bosses you’ve already beaten. If they kill the boss way too fast by abusing magic, watch a nail only kill or a full binding kill from the pantheons. I’m a 41 year old with bad reaction times who mainly plays Animal Crossing. Trust me, you can Git Gud.

The first two pantheons are pretty easy, too. I'm not saying don't step away from the game for a while. But HK is a game that always draws me back in to try the next thing, and finishing the first 3 pantheons isn't too bad, especially if you're capable of taking down NKG after only 45 minutes.

NKG is probably my favorite boss fight in any game ever. Yes, it sucks to learn. Yes, the margin of error is tiny. But it is a fair fight, and the music and presentation make it feel as epic as it should be.

b_d posted:i disagree that it sucks to learn. the intro and music start are badass and restarting the fight is like a 10 second dream transition + superdash. It took me A LOT of attempts. At one point I thought it was beyond my capabilities. Someday I’ll go back and do the pantheons. But not today. I should also say that I’ve benefited greatly from watching other people play. I did the fight blind, but I apparently do well at imitating better players on replays. Which I still do every few months.

I think saying that you freed the dreamers is a valid statement. Being stuck in the dream doesn’t strike me as a particularly comfortable state, given that the dream is basically the source of corruption for bugs. Also, Monomon summons Quirrel. She definitely understood that the seal was failing and her death was assured.

Watcher Knights is easily my least favorite fight in the entire game. But I also admit that I'm bad at any of the bosses that involve two or more mobs attacking me at the same time.

Super dashing through the mines and over the lake did it for me. The top of Crystal Peak made me stop and sit, but sitting next to Quirrel on the bench and listening to the rain was probably my favorite moment.

Martman posted:Hard to answer, but I wanna give a shout out to the Coliseum of Fools. After feeling isolated and lost for so long it feels like the only place in Hallownest that's still really functioning, and has crowds and a social atmosphere and stuff. Gets you fired up about the fact that there are still people here who could maybe be helped. Man you read that area way differently than I did. I saw it as the very last remnants of a dead society, so far gone that there’s nothing left but gambling and death matches. I mean, Lord Fool is a dead husk in the middle of the stands, and they just nonchalantly toss the corpses of defeated bugs into Kingdom’s Edge. A LOT of corpses, too.
