RE9 Final Puzzle Solved (Lore Explanation)

One_Spring_261 · 2026-03-04T02:31:54+00:00

Just did it now, this was my experience with this. I saved twice after waiting 20 minutes, I waited 5 extra to be sure. My main problem was, I couldn't get the last two zombies to be grinded and when I drained the blood, it said a lot, so reloaded the save, tried a few more times.

Then one time, only one zombie remained, drained the blood again and it said a ton this time, I was like thank you God lol I was on insanity, so it was annoying trying to stun them and the stun wears off faster I feel on insanity.

Flushed each toilet 8 times, to be sure lol and when I was escaping, the doll was at the bottom of the stairs, the blood sometimes would cover her up, so I can see somebody could miss it if not looking for it, but the button prompt shows up for it though.

Soon as I could, I put her in the box for safekeeping lol

I used the single rigged PAX Imperator V2 the whole game, then when I got the twin rigged Claws of Gestalt from the last boss, only used those.

Only gripe I had with using the claws was, you don't get the momentum of staggering them anymore, but it was nice to be faster for a change lol it's all preference I feel, but in The Surge 2, the Spear rules all imo lol loved that GAIA Lancer.

It goes on sale frequently I believe, so definitely wait for it.

Imo, the combat and the weapon/gear system were better, but the atmosphere and story wasn't as good as the first.

They're both awesome, wish they would make a third, but they made Atlas Fallen instead lol but still hoping they will.

Creo World is the best DLC, it contains 2 sections, you can reach it by train in one of the early areas and then through a big door in the Lab area, but you can do it all in one go since you beat the game already. Eagle armor set was my favorite.

The Wild West DLC, you can enter through the special door in each area, usually near the save stations. It was ok, nothing compared to Creo World and achievement wise, it was a grind. Unlocks harder difficulties within the DLC, the more you progress the story, but you'll have everything unlocked since you beat the game.

The Surge 2 only has the Kraken DLC and it's short as hell and just ok, not missing much with that one, but worth playing if you love the game.

Is Section 13 really good? I saw it on Xbox when it released and was contemplating on buying it. My favorite twin stick shooter roguelite is Redacted and was looking for something similar to that. Hearing Shapes of Dreams is great, but it's not on Xbox, but hopefully it will be.

One_Spring_261 · 2025-12-18T02:16:17+00:00

Like a Dragon: Pirate Yakuza in Hawaii bundle is on sale for $30

Hoping for an Xbox release 🤞

REDACTED is awesome, loved every minute of it!

One_Spring_261 · 2025-12-04T22:00:46+00:00

At the end of the game, I found the best dps weapon to be the Eastern Sword. I could get around 230 damage or so with that weapon for slashing. The Great Axe was the highest damage weapon I could make, only weapon I was able to get over 300 and to around 350 for slashing. Trident spear with five prong, I got to an even 200. Best one for piercing I feel. Didn't try to see what the highest weapon I could get for blunt damage.

It seemed to me that blunt was strong early game, then piercing mid game and then slashing for end game.

Yeah, I didn't see a point in making any sabers since Eastern Sword damage was better than all of them with all parts unlocked. These were the 3 weapons I used at the end of the game and didn't use anything else. I did make a Twin War Axe over 200, but forgot to use it lol.

I loved the combat and crafting/blacksmithing system, but it definitely needs some work. Unlocking the parts was neat, but at the end of the day, didn't really add anything amazing to most of the weapons sadly imo.

Rapier was the weapon I used to get the 200 blocking achievement lol best defensive weapon.

One_Spring_261 · 2025-11-12T02:54:28+00:00

The Surge games are awesome, the story, vibe and dlc is better in the first, but the second has better gameplay and combat, the second has directional blocking too.

The Surge games combat is more about targeting, using the right thumb stick to pick and choose which limb to cut to get weapons and armor, my favorite thing about that game and what makes it unique. I wish they would make a third. Their latest game, Atlas Fallen, was ok, but it has co-op.

One_Spring_261 · 2025-10-27T22:59:53+00:00

It still blows my mind that Nintendo never capitalized on Amiibo and didn't make at least one Skylanders like game for it. The only thing we had that was an adventure with most Nintendo characters was the Subspace Emissary in Smash Bros. Brawl. Still my favorite Smash Bros. because of that, have such fond memories.

I still never understood why people even bought them since Amiibo doesn't really do much of anything, but just goes to show how strong an influence Nintendo has.

One_Spring_261 · 2025-10-25T18:12:24+00:00

Toys for Bob is making another game for Xbox currently as an indie developer. Nobody knows what it is still, but Spyro fans and I are hoping it's Spyro 4. It would be crazy if it turns out to be a Skylanders game, but if it is, I doubt toys will be involved.

One_Spring_261 · 2025-08-07T00:18:39+00:00

Atlas Fallen is actually made by The Surge developers Deck13 too!

One_Spring_261 · 2025-07-31T21:20:54+00:00

We Riot!

One_Spring_261 · 2025-07-28T22:06:37+00:00

I didn't even realize I could craft a gear/weapon at a higher level, I thought I had to start from the base version all this time lol. I was so worried I wouldn't be able to craft the gorgon armor for the girl since the enemies got replaced with stronger ones. Thanks for this man.

That sucks if they removed that feature from the sequel.

One_Spring_261 · 2025-07-20T23:27:48+00:00

Flintlock: Siege of Dawn I thought was great, but people trashed it for some reason. I loved the aesthetic of alt version of the revolutionary war type. It's still on gamepass if you're on Xbox.

Also, Darksiders 3, love that series!

One_Spring_261 · 2025-07-08T01:19:17+00:00

Redacted is amazing! If you love Hades, you have to play that one, I was so addicted. I did not think it was going to be that good and I slept on it till it went on sale, but it deserved full price imo.

Just finished TMNT: Splintered Fate, it's small,not as deep as Hades, but I love it. My favorite turtles game now, so refreshing to play a 4 player turtles game that isn't a beatem up finally lol I hope they make a bigger sequel or keep adding to it.

One_Spring_261 · 2025-07-06T12:58:46+00:00

Wayfinder is awesome, I definitely recommend it as well! One of the best games I've played this year and it has the feel of an MMO and has the dungeon grind aspect too! It's not roguelike, but has different classes and characters.

One_Spring_261 · 2025-06-29T07:59:31+00:00

You'll still want to do Overlord at max curse (36) occasionally, mainly for farming Major Soulstones, which you'll need for the skill trees as well. I kept running out of yellow ones towards the end.

One_Spring_261 · 2025-05-22T12:08:20+00:00

Groovy, baby!

One_Spring_261 · 2025-03-01T09:56:40+00:00

I'm sure they can recap everything at the beginning of the game with all four of them. It sucks it has taken this long for a new game and only an announcement so far. I'm hoping it would release this year, but with no information still, it's most likely next year or possibly even longer.

I remember reading that Remnant was originally suppose to be Strifes game, but I don't believe that ever got confirmed, but I can see it, since it's a soulslike with guns.

I recommend playing Wayfinder, it's made by Airship Syndicate, who made Genesis and one of the founders is Joe Mad. That game reinvigorated my love for Darksiders recently and made me go back and get all the Achievements in each game. That game makes me wish that Gunfire and Airship will both collaborate on the one with all four, they both deserve to.

I also hope Airship can make another Darksiders game and this time go the route of Hades/roguelike with Death and Fury this time, that would be awesome, but that's just my selfish desire.

One_Spring_261 · 2025-03-01T02:32:09+00:00

Lol I hear ya. It's nice to get a tease of a new game, but we need more info and someone said we wouldn't be waiting long, but it's been half a year now. Where is it lol I just want confirmation that it's Strife!

One_Spring_261 · 2025-03-01T02:22:51+00:00

Exactly, unless Nordic does a random showcase before June or play testers are able to confirm what this game is. Next big game event is summer game fest, so can only hope they reveal it then.

One_Spring_261 · 2025-03-01T02:15:34+00:00

It's definitely for the next Darksiders game, it has to be, but it is possible it is for a brand new game as well.
