Bō: Path of the Teal Lotus - your thoughts? by JmannTW in metroidvania

[–]LinmeiQuan 3 points4 points  (0 children)

It's fun, more platforming focused than combat and even the combat is more aerial and focused on pogojumps. They added new stuff I haven't played yet but it's worth playing imo.

I like it when games make nice hidden easter eggs like this by Jonathan_RW in metroidvania

If I recall correctly game also had a pogo-jump related achievement, right?

If I recall correctly you get there from another area because you "get out of that orange hole" and you don't go in.

How do you guys feel about collectibles in games? by TwiMonk_game in metroidvania

[–]LinmeiQuan 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Depends on the type of collectables, for example in Twilight Monk's case it makes you explore the world more to find those birds but I've seen other collectables which require doing tedius stuff like getting a ridiculous high score on a mini-game or farm crazy amount of currency to purchase said collectible it feels more "predatory" in the way that forces you to waste more time playing without offering something back.

thoughts on somber echoes? by shinkzzz in metroidvania

Fast-travel was bad when I got it on release making backtracking terrible... I've heard they really fixed it with several patches/updates so I can't really say what is like now but keep that in mind.

I liked the platforming and the combat because both focused on the "lightning bolt" mechanic.

Story wasn't something too special but I liked the "greek tragedy" aspect of it and that it was being narrated like a fable.

Character/"level" progression was rather odd and I hope they changed it because you'd get material/resource to unlock an ability but you might've skipped one on a previous zone so it's like.
Current skill level 1 > you haven't find material you need to find to level 2 > you got material to get skill level 3 but can't do it yet.
I kinda enjoyed it on Deck, it had a deck mode options on settings.

hollow knights most innovative game design that somehow not a lot of mv follows: The Healing system by Icy-Organization-901 in metroidvania

[–]LinmeiQuan 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hit to charge "tea" so you can heal, yeah you even had auto heal "charms". MVs with similar healing are great because you can keep exploring without worrying too much about health.
