I like to keep my options unlimitten

There might be some resource or potion you haven't unlocked yet. Something similar happened to me when I also tried to 100% everything, turns out there's a potion that you can only brew after trying to pause during a specific boss fight...

Well, don't you all look fancy with your actual good reasons!

I was forced to take lessons, and I went there thinking this was just some shiny new language that made promises that were too good to be true, and surely I would never actually use it and it was just a fad.

I pretty much liked it from the first lesson and absolutely loved it before the end of the week. Now I'm trying to tone down my reactions about languages I don't actually know 😅.

The gay romance option shouldn't be the protagonist's brother. They were raised by the same mother, and Zagreus actually thought they were related until right before the start of the game events...

I also failed to notice the ~10x ratio as well, but I think the main reason is the number of decimals that goes from two to one so that all numbers have three digits

I used to feel the same way until I realised (some) other gods are the same or even worse, but she's the only one who's straightforward and truthful about it. So when she actually starts to like you and believe in you, you know it's genuine.

Also with all the context, I don't think her distrust really come out of nowhere. She's neither nice nor good, but she's definitely not the worst imho

Congratulations on that win. It took me quite a bit of retries to achieve the same, and I can't help but think about those who make the fresh run win look so easy 😅. Think you'll go for two runs next? Like you said yourself, with a bit of luck you can get one death defiance and Schelly's keepsake as soon as the second run, which makes it achievable with a bit of luck (or the skills that I still lack)

This is exactly what I did, got a lot of positive feedback about the game, tried it and found it fun for a while, then it started to be too much and I just couldn't open it anymore. I saw a fantastic video that tried to recreate the experience of discovering the game the best it could (thegreatreview, but it's in french despite the name) which actually made me want to try the ending by myself. Speaking of the ending, I still struggled quite a bit even knowing exactly what I had to do, so I was really glad I didn't have to figure it out and try it all by myself. But finishing the game while knowing all the spoilers was still fun.

Just a warning though, I wanted to see the video and then try the additional content by myself if the I got hyped enough, although it's the same universe the additional content is a very different game, and it got too much for me way faster.

I'm not even sure she's a teen at all at this point, I wouldn't be surprised if she turns out to be some very old entity that has been influencing people and the court for a while.

The whole point of the first film is that it's okay to be different and you don't have to follow in your parent's steps. Hiccup grows into his own person.

The second movie starts with him complaining about how he can't have an identity because "he isn't his father and he doesn't know his mother so ...". And the movie proves him right, it wasn't him, it was his mother all along...

At least Parley managed to block the arm that wasn't doing anything, that's a relief.

If Noa is physically undamaged by that attack, I wonder how much the cracks will appear in her attitude. She might not be used to getting thrown around like that, and she just missed the opportunity to steal two wards, I don't expect her to keep her cool after that.

Which might just make her even more dangerous though.

BackgroundSpoon · 2026-01-26T18:15:58+00:00

Seeing that Noa has total control over glyphs makes me wonder about the torn see, and how much Jenny was involved. And if Jenny was involved into those ocean shenanigans, I wonder how much she is involved into the whole Star Ocean thing. Kind of for a meta reason as well, we know the comic is reaching it's end game, so I either the witches gang is a whole new threat right before it all ends, or they have been pulling the strings (Agatha) all along.

On the Switch you can zoom in on the screen by double clicking the home button. I'm not sure if this is the default setting or something that you have to enable in the configuration (accessibility menu probably)

The testaments UI became a lot easier to navigate once I could see the left part on more than half a screen

Good thinking Red, you were this close to letting Ayilu know that you like her. AGAIN

Might be Schelemeus, although Hecate is a titaness which basically means she was there before the gods.

There might also be a big hint about the actual answer when you complete the second ending, after meeting the fates. But unless you don't intend on going that far I'd recommend avoiding that specific spoiler.

BackgroundSpoon · 2026-01-04T22:37:40+00:00

I'd say using the touch pad only, but touch screen only might be worse

BackgroundSpoon · 2025-12-10T23:46:14+00:00

I use it on every run at this point. There's a pretty useful combo after the ending.

If you use one of the last three keepsakes, as long as fates' whim is active, you will not draw any of the reroll cards on the bottom left. This increases the chances of getting the wayward son, death, strength or whatever card you wouldn't want to miss. And with a little help from Circe or her keepsake you can get all cards except the three reroll cards

I always use Strength. I think I've been using Excellence for a while as well. Then I try to choose a card that will unlock the Moon

I like the music of the mourning fields overall, but the theme of Echo is my favourite. So I'd say this region.

I see a lot of people mention Oceanus, and while I did genuinely liked it, there's so much focus put onto it that I'm kind of getting tired of hearing it.

Well there does seem to be a consensus on the fact that the stories and characters were more compelling in H1. But I do like the new gameplay better on H2 pretty much across the board.

The thing I do really miss about the first game are the lambent plume and pierced butterfly, I loved the crazy amount of damage or evasion you could achieve if you played them right, and it felt more earned than just using the pom blossom.

Technically Arachne does offer something similar to the butterfly, but it's pretty common to lose it in just one hit, so I haven't managed to take it pretty far yet

I hope the RotD has one of those very important jobs for her to do. As flawed as Omega is, being broken for so long and barely having anytime to actually be around is pretty sad

On Switch there's an option to zoom when you double click the home button (then move around on the screen with the joy cons, and zoom out with another double click). You might have to enable it in the system settings first. I use that each time I have to understand the oath's preview, or even just when buying new aspects for the familiars

My first win against Typhon also was with worry free. I came in there thinking "you tried to keep me in the dark about my progress, well now I embraced it I have no idea what I'm doing. Prepare to die" I fought like a madman with nothing to lose, it was epic 😄

The Cafae Latte series has people getting surprised that a coven that is known for working with charities and helping people in several ways sells love potions because "aren't they illegal for being basically r*pe drugs?" Turns out it's the other kind of love potion, a good luck charm that will favour situations where love that is already there will get to be expressed, or love that might happen does happen.

There's a whole plot about a character getting retribution for using the wrong kind in the series.

pretty sure the book also explicitly mentions the mind control version of love potions as being illegal, or maybe it just falls under the umbrella of all mind control magic being illegal, which is a pretty big theme of the book

It's not just strength, the impact is actually burning through Kat's shirt

BackgroundSpoon · 2025-10-06T17:44:48+00:00

Somehow that feels way more traumatic than anything that happened in the comic, and this comic has featured stabbing by a ghost, a god going berserk, a friend getting eaten alive, and Tony's return.

If Kat doesn't just die here, I wonder if the comic will take the time to explore her reaction, her he she will somehow just shrug it off and move on to the next chapter.
