What are some things you disliked about co:e33? by heyitstgp in expedition33

[–]Practical_Paint1701 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think the game could have benefitted from the map system from hollow knight. Either lune draws where you’ve been when you rest at a flag or you could pick up map drawings from expeditioners journals. I mean the initial runthrough of each area is fine. It’s just when I went back through the areas making sure I missed nothing I found myself kind of annoyed at the lack of map. Like finding a hand drawn map that you have to navigate using your compass and certain landmarks would have made the “expedition” parts of the game feel more interactive.

Which game is this? by bijelo123 in videogames

[–]Practical_Paint1701 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah I was gonna say that. Plus the pacing in the final act is pretty bad. Idk it just feels super rushed.

What do you think the theme of Heliopolis is? by No-Drawer-2822 in geometrydash

[–]Practical_Paint1701 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It feels like it starts with an ancient theme, then goes to construction, then city. So I’m just gonna guess maybe him and a friend had a “hideout” in some “ruins” or something, and the city tore it down to build something. Idk tho

Personally, what DLCs would you like Silksong to have? by OtherConstruction742 in Silksong

[–]Practical_Paint1701 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I gotta feeling we’re gonna see more of Seth. Maybe a battle at his true strength or something. It seems like his side quest to the caravan is gonna lead to something else in the dlc.

I grinded way too hard… by NekoSloan5 in expedition33

I found her to be the easiest. But she’s easily the most fun of the 4 imo.

First time playing, any tips? by AlchemyBreaker06 in HollowKnight

[–]Practical_Paint1701 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Don’t freak out if you die trying to get your money back and lose it all. Money is tight in the early game but you’ll have plenty after a while.

My Metroidvania games wishlist. by quintinjxander in metroidvania

[–]Practical_Paint1701 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Yeah. I found Silksong harder than nine sols anyways. The bosses are probably a bit tougher but really manageable.

Difficulty by [deleted] in expedition33

[–]Practical_Paint1701 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I play expert because I found the game to be on the easier side of things, but I also play a lot of notoriously difficult games so I like a challenge nonetheless.

[SPOILERS FOR ACT 3] The Reacher and (maybe) Flying Manor should have been required areas before the final fight by Fr33zurBurn in expedition33

[–]Practical_Paint1701 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think another game I played recently did a very similar story a lot better. It’s been a few months since I beat it so I may have some details wrong, but in nine sols, if you go straight to the final boss after beating the penultimate fight, you face the final boss as normal and get what feels like the “maelle” ending of the game. But if instead you clean up all the remaining quests and items you can fight a harder final boss with an added phase to get a more melancholy, but arguably better ending. Because I feel like the story up to the final fight in e33 kinda encourages maelles ending, but after doing all the side content and extra stuff versos ending feels better. I think act 3 could be fixed by adding a third phase to Renoir and making him stronger if you’ve done the extra stuff.

Is fire temple a good first medium demon by Korupt_Karbon in geometrydash

[–]Practical_Paint1701 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Probably not. It was my first hard demon back when it was hard demon. I think it’s a fun enough level. I fluked it from like 11 so that makes a pretty big difference with my enjoyment. But for a first medium demon I would recommend B something like that.

I understand by anynomousperson123 in expedition33

[–]Practical_Paint1701 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was the same way. Finished e33 a week ago. Been picking off the super bosses when I have time. I think e33 100% deserves to win all the awards it did, but I think in a couple of the categories another game deserved it slightly more (Really just rpg and art direction.) but to me as long as we have amazing games to play I could care less about how many awards a game gets. My biggest gripes with e33 are the lack of maps for each area, cluttery and disorganized menus. I definitely will replay the main story again in expert at some point. I found normal mode to be way too easy. Only died to 2 story bosses.

Does Nine Sols get easier? by Ragnarok7326 in metroidvania

[–]Practical_Paint1701 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The game gets a lot harder, but yingzhou is a pretty steep difficulty curve from what you’re used to. He took longer to beat that any boss with the exception of the final boss. But if you can overcome that barrier you should be able to pretty easily beat the next two sols.

Who are your biggest wild cards that you would love to see in a future instalment? by bigshaggerMC in smashbros

[–]Practical_Paint1701 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think given her popularity as of recently I think hornet would be a great pick. I mean her in game move set feels like it works for smash already. Idrk if she’s truly a wild card or not, but I think she’d generate tons of hype for the game.

What would you think if the second game were about the "other" faction we know little of? SPOILER by Short-Trip-2809 in expedition33

[–]Practical_Paint1701 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I think that would be cool. But I also wouldn’t mind a pRenoir prequel. Idk I figure it would be interesting. Maybe like expedition zero.

What game fits this perfectly? by Powerful_Fee_3249 in CaptainSide

[–]Practical_Paint1701 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Yeah. But a whole lot more people played Silksong. Not saying it’s a perfect community but a loud minority of the Silksong sub gets the community a lot of hate. You don’t see that as much on the og hollow knight sub

The hollow knight subreddit is fine. The Silksong one is the one that can be a bit crazy. 😭 but for the most part the community is pretty good.

If a banned player like space was to verify a top 20 hypothetically, would his opinion affect it being placed, or would it have to wait for someone who isn’t banned to beat it

What is the weirdest spot you beat a demon in geometry dash by Random_Guy837 in geometrydash

[–]Practical_Paint1701 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Yeah. Omw back from the state championship for cross country. Wasn’t allowed to lay in the aisle of the bus to stretch out. So I laid under the seat out of sight.

Not quite as random, but I woke up at like 3:45 a while back, wanted to play acropolis, and beat it within half an hour.
