I started my 2nd run in the game thanks to Zombie Guy. Very general, but spoilery question: The first time I played I mostly critical pathed it. This time I'd like to do more of the optional stuff. Is there any reason not to dream nail every ghost I find?

So like, only the ones that explicitly pop up a Challenge dialog lead to fights and meaningful essence?

I wanna read that but I'm definitely not going to read that. If they're starting up a marketing push, it's gotta be close, right?

i feel like people are forgetting that the presentation said 'everything is going to be released within a year's time of this broadcast' and not 'everything is going to be released in 2022'

What? Really?

Oh no...

I don't particularly enjoy boss fights, but Traitor Lord is probably my favorite one. It's got a small moveset that's easy to memorize and iirc the moves are well telegraphed. But it's also fast and hits hard, so it's in a sweet spot for me where it's easy to learn but hard to execute. Good boss.

I feel like Microsoft is going to own the announcement because it's coming to Game Pass at launch, but dunno.

I tried Tunic twice, but I don't play games a whole lot, so both times I took like a two week break and then come back and had zero idea where to go and it wasn't fun enough to just wander around.

The real platinum achievement of Hollow Knight is when you decide "gently caress it" and leave the game without trying to do any additional bosses.

It's me. HK is one of my favorite games of all time, but I don't do any of the optional bosses because I don't really enjoy boss fights. The mandatory ones are difficult enough, thanks.

And you're coming up with an imaginary scenario where they couldn't work on the game for up to two years working from home in one of the safest countries in the world to weather the pandemic because...?

No one said this.

Snake Maze posted:

If they had to stop working on the game for two years because of the novel coronavirus then I think that still counts as development being troubled.

No one said this.

That post does not say they stopped working on the game for two years.

With an established pattern of indie devs making one good game and then immediately taking over 50 years to make their second game I think the government should step in and make a law that forces indies over a certain level of success to sell themselves to some random AAA factory that can pump out yearly or bi yearly sequels.

Silksong surprise drop, BG3 on game pass, GTA6 getting canceled and the funds going to build affordable housing instead. Gonna be a big night for gaming!

I mean not really. There are 83 pages here but 70 of them are people getting increasingly annoyed and frustrated at the lack of communication and it has become so synonymous with the game that industry stuff jokes about it. It also means that people are building themselves up to likely unrealistic expectations in terms of quality. (Not that the game will be bad but that the lack of communication means people are left to fill in the gaps themselves, which would lead to disappointment if it ends up being 'only' as good as Hollow Knight.)

This post is really bad, imo
