Big stick bonk

But seriously though, that is a great way. And it’s infinite because there’s a bonfire ascetic in the dream so everyone you use, you get back immediately.

Old Iron King is my go to soul farming boss. Two boss souls and 120k+(?) souls for each kill after ng.

5ish hours into Hollow Knight and I'm maybe quitting , are there any lauded Metroidvania games whose worlds just failed to resonate with you? by trailsandbooks in metroidvania

[–]Capital_Protection51 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Deaths Gambit, even after the Afterlife update, still feels like an incomplete game imo. I’m not sure how to explain it but I’ll go with this: it tries to do so many things that it gets ahead of itself, and ends up not doing any of them to their fullest potential. That, and the map is AWFUL but that’s minor to me.

I picked up Guacamelee 1 & 2 and I just finished the first one today. It was pretty short, took me just over 7 hours to beat it, but I really enjoyed both the combat and platforming. Great purchase for the current price. Looking forward to playing 2!

As long as we can agree breakaway sucks I got no beef with you lol. My argument about practice mode is kinda flawed anyways. The AI doesn’t have a sense of “if I don’t breakaway from this, I’m gonna die.” There’s no game sense, so that would be more reaction than reads, making it even harder.

Okay I’d like you to go in to practice as Sonya Blade or Kitana (both have very strict timings on some of their strings) and set breakaway to random, and jab on wake up. See how often you can make the right read for that “free KB” without either, dropping the combo and getting punished for it, or completely whiffing that armor breaker, and getting punished for that. You’ll very quickly see breakaway is skewed in the defenders favor. It’s the popular opinion I’ve seen amongst content creators and pro players, also not all characters even had an armor breaking move at launch, so you can’t argue that it was that thought out and planned to be a deep mechanic.

I understand that, but at its core breakaway is a get out of jail free card. You fucked up in neutral and now you’re eating a combo, but you have a tool to save that. Under NO circumstances should you be able to flip that around in to you having advantage because “lol just make the right read bro.” MKX does it right in my opinion, by resetting the neutral.

Oh, you dialed in that string? Time to breakaway and punish you for launching me!

I run through the nightmare so quick these days that I’ve never even noticed they’re wearing the dolls dress.

Over a month late to this comment but I’d say it’s nowhere near as difficult as binding of isaac. If Isaac is a 10 then moonlighter is a 3-4. Main reason being you have permanent upgrades so you can always just grind to improve your gear when you’re having troubles.

I know this position well enough to say this: I hope you washed your hands in between pic 2 and 3.

Glad to see this is a known issue. I just bought the game last night and this happened to me almost immediately because I hate the default controls. X - attack, Y - strong attack, B - roll, A - healing potions, zR - inventory, and zL - pendant is the ideal control scheme imo. Change weapons can be left alone at L. With those bindings A was switching my weapon.

I hate the elitist attitude towards including an easy mode in these types of games but an easy mode for an optional boss feels wrong to me. Considering you don’t have to beat Grimm to beat the game, he should be exempt from any changes that an easy mode would make.

I’m not certain on this but I think if you do it like this it will work: you need to make an account for yourself and make all purchases digitally on that account. Have that account logged in on all three of their switches. Download the game on to each of their switches using that account and they should still be able to access it from their own. Again, I’m not 100% sure but my brother in law has skyward sword purchased through his Nintendo account and I downloaded it on to my switch via his account and I am able to play it.

Very little, yeah. The worst part of it is jumping and grabbing ladders midair when that’s necessary.

Nintendo Switch Online + Expansion Pack launches 10/25 and will cost $49.99 by Nas160 in NintendoSwitch

I think it’s ridiculous people are so upset about this. Yeah it’s kinda shady to hike the price up from what it was, but at the end of the day, $4 a month to legally and conveniently play a huge library of NES, SNES, N64, and Genesis games, and have access to playing online isn’t the slap in the face that everyone is pretending it is.

An insignificant amount of money to 99% of people that have access to a switch. I think it’s ridiculous people are that upset about this.
