I don't really like the little platforms in the dragon and bee bosses either, it sucks when you try to parry something and it just barely goes under the drat platform as you try to land your parry, causing you to still get hit somehow. I can't explain it but it's frustrating. It's also hard to parry anything from below without the charm. I got everything on at least A- rank now except the train boss and king dice, gonna try for the "beat the game on expert" achievement after that. Do you simply beat every boss and level on expert on your existing game?

Do you simply beat every boss and level on expert on your existing game? Just every boss on expert. Run N Guns are excluded as Pacifist is the only alternative to normal difficulty. I don't think it matters how many King Dice sub-bosses you kill either.

I'm not sure if this is the place for this or not but I don't know who else to ask. I managed to get Steam working on my mac with Wine and I installed Cuphead, but it freezes almost immediately when I load the game. Any idea how to get around that? I can play it at home on my PC just fine, so I'm guessing SOMETHING is wrong but I have no idea what.

Probably something to do with running a Windows game on a Mac.

Dunno about the only one worth it. But is definitely the best if you want to rush to use the power up. Whetstone has the most useless description and it along with Sugarcube are poorly explained. Wish devs would stop half-assing even the barest amount of information.

To this day I have no idea what Whetstone actually does because I never tried it. The description doesn’t make it sound appealing. All the auto-parry description needed was ”until you land again” after ”first parry is automatic”

So the story then. The hero lost a bet with the devil and must steal the souls of the rest of the citizens of Inkwell Isle and give them to the devil? Does that make us the bad guys? I mean you return them in the end but still. You still took them.

# ? Nov 3, 2017 07:22 |

I mean these citizens also signed their souls away, they're just reneging on the contract so All of this could have been avoided if Cuphead and Mugman just did the same thing thh

Snazzy Frocks posted:unless the craps game was rigged everyone is just cheating the devil, really And then you beat him up to get out of paying your due. At first I assumed that the citizens of Inkwell Isle were controlled by the devil after he took their souls (which is why they fight you) and that they were barring your way to the devil and so you knock them out and eventually save them all by getting their souls back (which is why they cheer you on at the end) The reality is a lot more convoluted.

Nah the opening cutscene says that you're collecting debts in order to repay yours. most important cuphead lore question: who has the better hand dance, cala maria p2 or cagney carnation p1 (hint: it's cala maria)

Watch the intro again, King Dice gives the Devil what I'd describe as A Look before Cuphead rolls, he's hoodwinking them. Deepest lore.

Nina posted:To this day I have no idea what Whetstone actually does because I never tried it. The description doesn’t make it sound appealing. Whetstone turns your first parry action into an attack (with a new animation) that'll hit a non-pink enemy. I first noticed it when I could parry a yellow duck in the Beppi the Clown fight. It also works in the plane, with a new animation for that as well.

Cuphead and Mugman seem like a gay couple.A good poster posted:Whetstone turns your first parry action into an attack (with a new animation) that'll hit a non-pink enemy. I first noticed it when I could parry a yellow duck in the Beppi the Clown fight. It also works in the plane, with a new animation for that as well. When is that really useful? I can't think of too many situations where I want to parry something with other enemies nearby.

Aren't they also brothers?Dejawesp posted:And then you beat him up to get out of paying your due. Well, if you give the souls over at the end, then not only do you not have to fight the devil but you get an animated ending instead of the still pictures / text you get after beating him up. So it's pretty clear which choice is more rewarding.

So what I got from this last page was that Cuphead and Mugman are 10-year-old gay brothers in an incestuous relationship and they enjoy booze while gambling with the devil.

I just want to know why the gently caress Mugman keeps drinking his own head contents. The hell is THAT about?

Old Man Kettle is a fash and you know it No seriously why does he give us murder super powers so we can genocide everyone else on the island just so we can get out of paying our dues?
