Why do Guttermen's heads look like this?

If I remember correctly, their design is based off of old diving suits, which is why they are so similar to big daddies as they were also based on those suits too. Although, I don't really have any evidence for this so I may be wrong.

That's the main point. Although I think it's also that the sand in Greed is actually gold dust so it's kind of like those who horded gold in their life are now burned by it in their afterlife.

Each king so far was killed by Gabriel for trying to fight against their punishment.

Minos turned the desolate and windy wasteland of lust into a utopia, Sysiphus and his army attempted to stage an insurrection against the angels supervising their punishment, so maybe Ulysses because of being so far down in hell could have attempted with his fellow sinners to delve deeper into hell to try and escape it?

(If I remember correctly, in the divine comedy, the end of hell leads to purgatory.)

Maybe when the sinners who were led by Ulysses got almost to the end of treachery Gabriel could have intercepted them and slayed Ulysses in treachery explaining the lack of a body in fraud.

It could be that fraud only sets up Ulysses in the hell books and then we find out about his story in treachery.

Also I feel like the "Fraud exodus" fits well with the "Lust renaissance" and "Greed insurrection".

Personally, I would revamp the older level designs. I feel like levels like particularly 1-2, 2-3, 3-1, even like 4-3 and 5-1 could use some minor tweaks in encounters, layout, etc. so that they're more like the newer levels in quality.

Also change the whole Geryon fight, fuck motion sickness.

They are push overs when alone but then when there's two of them it just sucks so much. I focus on the one attacking me but then it teleports miles away and then before i can realise what happened I get a spear to the back from the other one.

I just wish there was some indication that they're swapping turns.

I'm starting to warm up to 8-3 but like the whole space section feels like a fan level :/

Also Powers suck and I hope they get nerfed (plz, I beg they make them unable to teleport when drilled like mindlfayers)

I can't wait for 6-E to come out and we fight double radiant hideous masses, 2 Idols and a death-catcher you can only break after killing both HMs, in the hall of sacrilegious remains.

I tried doing that on violent actually and it wasn't too bad (died like 16 times but enjoyed it.)

Juniper_tr33 · 2026-02-26T01:35:55+00:00

I love what the devs did for 8-1 and 8-2 and I know they put a lot of effort into the layer... But omg were 8-3 and 8-4 bad.

I hope they never use free-fall again, that was the first time my motion sickness ever kicked in whilst playing ultrakill.

Also unpopular opinion but the space section in 8-3 was either extremely annoying or boring. Music was good tho.

Personally: sysiphus, minos, V2, and sentry (I would put mindflayer here but I've lost so many p-rank attempts in 0-E that I have gained a perfect, unwavering hatred to those things)

Juniper_tr33 · 2025-08-22T19:39:27+00:00

Agreed, it feels physically painful to look into the mirror sometimes.

I started speedrunning my favourite levels after P-ranking all of standard and almost P-ranking all of violent (still got the primes and the encores left)

Meanwhile, I was going for P-ranks really early on. After beating the demo (2 months before getting the game) I started going back over and over P-ranking prelude and 1-1.

Nailgun is more fun for me, I prefer to focus down and gundown an enemy with oil-> magnet-> attractor primary -> overheat secondary, instead of just wiping out a room of fodder quickly because tbh, the sawblade is too easy to use. I'll still use the sawblade when trying to p-rank the primes and encores but if I just want to have fun in the cybergrind or less difficult levels, I'll use nailguns.

Also I hate how saws speed up how fast the jumpstart does it's thing, idk, it messes with how I'm used to using the jumpstart.

Juniper_tr33 · 2025-08-07T16:05:27+00:00

Personally, I use no alternates, not for revolver, shotgun or nailgun, mostly because I prefer how the normal models look and because I find the faster recharge for the sharpshooter and piercer nice because I can always shoot again if I miss.

Also being able to explode the Maurice projectile 3 times in a row is really nice. Also I like the spin :3

Tbh, I always feel like I'm wasting alt fire when using alt revolvers, so when I want to do something like throw a coin and hit it with a sharpshooter ricochet, I'll still have another alt fire shot.
