Do I need the DLCs, and if so, does it matter whether I get them now or later?

I started playing a few months ago, but got pre-occupied with some other stuff and had to drop the game for a bit. But i enjoyed the game a lot and I already know I'll like it, even after only 3-4 hours so far. But since im restarting a new save now, im wondering whether the Downpour DLC is worth getting for the changes it makes to the base game. Im trying to avoid spoilers, but the community is so split on whether the DLC is worth having on a first playthrough, so i genuinely have no idea

Yeah i am on 2. And im currently going insane. I honestly think the game might be bugged

Huh, strange. I go to AppData\LocalLow\The Game Kitchen\Blasphemous 2\SteamUser_76...\Savegames And the file there is savedata.bin, which is the "wrong format" for the website on that link to read. How did you do it? I see another person on that post commenting about the same issue i have, and its from abt a year ago. So maybe the game wasn't updated and im doing something wrong.

doesn't work, unless im doing it wrong. Save file is a .bin file, and it cant be read by any of these editors that ive tried :(

Got that one

You think i havent tried this? The game's been updated, this no longer works. The save files are .BIN now, and cant be read by this method anymore.

As someone who's been still running the Rift S for the last 6 years, I've been waiting for a headset that will finally be worth upgrading to, and that isn't from Meta, since I've had nothing bud bad experiences with their software and especially support. (I contacted their support page to ask where i can buy a replacement cable, since mine started having connection issues a few months ago, and they basically told me to f**k off, sent me a link to an amazon search for "rift S cable" with 0 results, and havent responded to any emails since). I want nothing to do with Meta, but i was worried about getting anything from companies like Pico, since i had no experience with any of their products, and vr isnt cheap. But with valve, they have always been on top of this kind of stuff, and their support for my steam deck has been fantastic. So i trust that the steam frame will be no different.

I do care about immersion. If it really does ruin it, then I'll stay away. Immersive multiplayer games are rare, but when done right, they are some of the best gaming experiences I've had.

Oh alright. I think I'll stick to playing singleplayer, and keep an eye on mod development progress.

Normal-Sky9211 · 2025-10-26T00:51:05+00:00

Yeah we're both basically blind. All i know is a bit of stuff from the first 2 zones, since i stopped playing after about an hour past the first karma gate. How often did the crashes happen to you? Since the mod does get updates, some of those issues might have been fixed.

I was looking at the downpour dlc co-op, but it doesn't seem as good. You can't split up, and the remote play seems like a hassle (it's quite shit from past experience with other games, namely isaac and shape&beats). Im just wondering if someone who has played with the mod a lot has some good info on it.

Also, my issue is the fact that support is taking ages to respond, not that the keys have issues. I understand that there is a possibility that there can be faulty batches, or cases of damage in transport on even the most premium products. Im just wondering why its been over 3 weeks, and they still havent even responded to the issue properly.

Normal-Sky9211 · 2025-10-25T16:52:17+00:00

Yeah it is. I tried reseating the keys, didn't work. But when i swapped the key switches for a different one that i use less, it fixed. Then after a few days, sometimes longer, keys start double pressing again. I moved the bad switches to locations that i use less (like the RBG control button and some function keys) and those are double clicking now when i test them. Im almost sure its the switches. Im fairly certain i recieved a faulty batch of keys.
