Having watched more videos online I take it back - the art style looks great, it's the character design only that I dislike. The backgrounds and everything look pretty nice!

Does Nightmare do anything obviously spoilery off the bat or is it just a gently caress You Hard Mode

Mel Mudkiper posted:I find the games lack of visual polish fascinating. We are in an era where games will crimp on gameplay and features to spend more time on looking pretty but this game is really solid and well made and just sort of comfortable with looking unrefined. A little bit more visual tell on the hitboxes would be nice though - I died to the first boss the first time and had to use two potions the second because I couldn't tell when the tentacles could and couldn't hurt me, which combined with the lack of way to interrupt your animations like in the old games (afaict) leads to you taking four hits for most of your health because they hit you, then the water, then the squids, then the boss's hitbox. Got it on the third try with the whip though - the starting claymore sucks a bit on top of it all RBA Starblade fucked around with this message at 01:48 on Jun 19, 2019 |

How's the waystone supposed to work I used it the moment I picked it up wondering if it's infinite use it's not

What are some of the other secret moves weapons have? I've only stumbled onto the shoe kick so far And what does mastery do? I missed the explanation on accident

Fuzz posted:The whip is neat if you like the whip moveset... personally I'm not a fan of the hitbox or how slow they are. I guess I just haven't gotten a second weapon that can yet? Only the kung fu shoes responded to hadoukens so far. I love how much hidden poo poo there is so far and how smug I felt when I used the kung fu UN DEUX TRfuck to get to something early

I think there's just one thing besides the lack of visual clarity I dislike and that's that boy do I not like listening to Miriam shriek every time I get a shard

Phantasium posted:This has been my goto, but then I crafted the lightning shard from the harpies on the train into a better lightning shard and it just shits so much damage at once I killed the library boss without getting hit in the first five seconds. Thanks, I'll try that and see. It's kind of uncomfortable!

So when they patch the game on Steam everyone is going to need to restart their whole game because of the chest thing?

Speaking of ammo ups what's the starting default maximum for SP/HP rounds? I only have like ten anyway but I want to know if I should be judicious in using them or just pull my gats out at will (I know I have infinite lovely ammo but still)

The kung fu shoes hadouken tech moves you forward in mid air. It's handy! Deified Data posted:Okay I should be good then, I haven't reached that area yet. Wouldn't that be bad since it means it'll already be open? I'm like a couple hours in so I may as well restart

I have a flying pig, a chainsaw, and a blunderbuss pistol and pirate hat. Here I come, Hell I appreciate that the 8-bit coin items aren't really any stronger than anything else, just cute little whatevers. I also appreciate that the crafting is mostly irrelevant and you don't have to engage with it unless you really want to, since there's plenty to explore and grab that way, something most games get wrong (even some Castlevanias!).

I beat boss 2 by walking underneath him, poking his rear end, and eating two pizzas (and I didn't even need the second) JBP posted:I feel like the Encrypted Orchid is way stronger than anything else and it stuns stuff on top. I haven't been using anything else even when the attack number is higher. It just blows stuff away. Oh, I got the guns lol so going off that and the stats I assumed Curse sucks a whooooole lot in this game btw - that cywraeth thing is brutal -it just does half your health then halves your max, so if you're hurt and it touches you (and it has a homing offscreen swoop), you lose. If you're in an area with them keep topped up even if it's a waste of potions. RBA Starblade fucked around with this message at 02:34 on Jun 20, 2019 |

What do you mean the giant ghost kitty shard doesn't give you a ghost kitty familiar 0/10 game refund immediately

So int is "casting speed" according to the augment shard. Is con hp and mind magic damage?

JBP posted:I thought mnd mitigated magic damage taken. It's in the defensive stat zone. I assume strength increases physical attack damage so something should affect the magic damage right? I never really paid a lot of attention to the stats in CV beyond Number Go Up

Thanks guys I didn't realize the shard actually did more than just adding a point to Int so I conflated the description for it for what the stat does

Cowcaster posted:familiars are even worse because they have grade, rank, and level! The silver knight's a champ; leveling up seems to increase how often it attacks and blocks for you and how much it does when hitting.

Spectral Werewolf posted:I wish I switched to console when they announced they were no longer supporting Mac and Linux. A controller seems like it would be the best control scheme but I can't seem to get any of my controllers to work with Windows. Keyboard and mouse is really awkward and not easy to use for things like QCF + Kick for a combo move. Wired Xbox 360 controllers are plug and play

Cowcaster posted:after you get the double jump, holding down, or diagonal down/right or left, and hitting jump again will cause you to do a triangle kick. if you hit something with it you'll bounce up to the height of a normal jump off of it, and it'll reset your double jump so you can use it again. The game tracks your longest kickin' spree too

The only bug I've seen on pc so far is items will get stuck in walls or areas you can't physically reach but it seems to just automatically give you whatever it is if you can't get to it anyway

It sounds like the gun backer item is the only one that doesn't do anything interesting lol So of course it's the one I got RBA Starblade fucked around with this message at 13:43 on Jun 21, 2019 |

There's a book in the livre ex machina the silver knight flips out attack but you can't interact with - has anyone figured that out? It's the one above the rotating bookshelf to get to the crow mask.

My major problem is that it basically does NOTHING BUT hearken back to games I loved. Yeah I got what I paid for instead of garbage like hollow knight I'm p happy about it
