lol just stumbled upon the fact that the first weapon you get has an unlisted quarter-circle command input that does a special move that lets you extend your jump horizontally and get you to places youre "not supposed to" get to without a movement upgrade... sick

Wait a minnute is it something about the gameplay or are people wishing it was 2d??? Literally i was surprised they were charging 40 dolars for this til I looked it up and saw its 3d. 2d just feels old + cheap to me and its harder to enjoy.

3d is cheaper to make than well animated spritework

Looks like ugly slow crap but I hope it goes on sale in a couple months. On Switch preferably.

The game looks like Leonardo da Vinci was in the middle of painting the Mona Lisa, then he had a craving for a Taco Bell burrito and, about 6 to 8 hours later, took a big dump in the toilet

It looks like poop falling out of a volcano that's filled with poop, and raining from the sky due to an epic explosion.

I backed it on Kickstarter and had no idea it'd be some watered down 30fps rubbish on switch and also that I'd get it after everyone else. Had no option to get the ps4 or steam versions once it was revealed that switch wluld get a trash port.

Never back Kickstarters

The Switch Pro is going to run it at glorious, buttery smooth 1000 nit HDR with 16x TXAA and ample, SUPPLE L2 and L3 caches. And we’ll all remember the day you doubted

Yah I'm glad I got it but it was definitely more expensive than I thought it would be . The patient gamer will be rewarded with free playable shovel knight DLC

It's not DLC it's already in the game.

I love all the little gimmick weapons with hidden properties , really give me symphony of the night feels . Like the ice-enchanted boots that give you a permanent slipping-on-ice effect or the shoes with blades in the toes that make your slide scale off attack damage instead of doing a flat 1dmg to enemies

Speaking of, it took me a while but I figured out what filling up the mastery bar does for a special move -- lets you use the move with every single weapon in that category instead of just the few that "have" it. pretty sick

Are those giant hideous beardo backer portraits all over the place in this? I feel like half the screenshots I’ve seen have them in there and it’s really ugly and jarring and way more of a turnoff than the 2.5D graphics stuff

They're only in 1/3 of all the rooms in the game and only sometimes do they come to life as enemies so you have to pay even closer attention to them. Not really a big deal at all imho.

it was 60 or 50 for PAL. i mean, it was a huge part of how loving mindblowingly good it felt to play back in the day, at least for me, so im not stoked to buy the 30fps version of the new one. but i dunno, difficult choice for sure

Listen. The only thing that "feels good" in PAL will get you arrested in most civilized countries but Rare has powerful allies including Phil Spector, the Clinton foundation, and the kusher real estate dynasty .
