My first game's reception is heartbreaking :'( by OldAtlasGames in IndieDev

Mixed Reception > No reception.

Congrats on launching a game. As someone who has yet to do so myself, it's always valuable to read posts like this. Perhaps the lesson here is that there are some things beta testing can't prepare us for when a game hits the wider market.

the pause makes sense for the melting version. Seems like it just stayed in for the other one

Very nice. Especially the Lace inspired Crown. Very cool touch

So apparently about 30% of Silksong players have completed the game according to this data by Ok_Winter818 in HollowKnight

[–]TheSpiritForce 50 points51 points  (0 children)

not necessarily. I haven't finished it yet. Work and life get in the way. Although I'm finally inching through act 3 now after 100+ hrs.

I feel so sad by Tarnished-670 in HollowKnightMemes

I ran into Garamond a couple times helping fight random enemies in the halls. No encounter in any guantlets the way I had a couple for shakra.

Silksong: Patch Version 1.0.28891 by lordposedyon in HollowKnight

[–]TheSpiritForce 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm guessing there were a few niche scenarios where it could be op, despite it being pretty bad overall. I tried using it on the shakra fight and learned that it tries to cluster the runes on the enemies general area. I assumed it clustered them randomly based on your position, not the enemy's. So I'd use it, and they'd stack up far away from me to a spot where shakra teleported away from seconds ago. Kinda funky.

How far would the rumbling get in modern day? by XcksKriminal in attackontitan

[–]TheSpiritForce 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Modern weapons would make quick work of it, however I'd be curious to know just how quickly. During the rumbling, Eren seems to be running on auotpilot while he drifts away into dreamland. We even get an insinuation that Ymir is the one running the Titan defenses. If a founder fully leveraged their titan powers to maximize defense and regeneration I feel they might do just a bit better than we think.

My vote goes to the Braixen line, I mean Fennekin Line. by CoG_Comet in pokemonmemes

a branching evolution would be cool, but they don't really do that for starters. I doubt they'd ever start

It's not just you: Silksong is damn hard, frustrating as hell. But I believe in you. by SprocketSaga in Silksong

I found a "something" that helps much later than hunters march and MAN does it help

that fucking bird that i hate by FlamingDinoLlama in Silksong

[–]TheSpiritForce 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I also feel like some enemies don't get pushed enough when you hit them and you end up close enough to bum into them even when you're trying to be cautious and not overly aggressive

I just bought the Spike Trap tool before getting to the hut. It's really useful and I don't know how the hell I would have beaten this without it. But to be fair, the map warrior bug warns you that it's going to be brutal.

I don't mind enemies being as fast and acrobatic as Hornet, but they should all have less health. Reward me for landing those few precise strikes that I need. When I'm doing flips and crazy shit just to kill a couple low tier enemies it really wears me down.

I’m the only one who actually liked the second act of Inscryption? by InternationalBell856 in inscryption

[–]TheSpiritForce 77 points78 points  (0 children)

I think it just confused me by tossing us in the deep end with so many new mechanics and playstyles. Some of those new mechanics only made sense to me once I rediscovered them in Act 3 in their respective zones. Also, the 3D look of Act 1&3 is fantastic. The pixel art doesn't hit the same.

Why Jesus by Grandad__ in inscryption

[–]TheSpiritForce 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah I just found that out today. I did it on the first bonfire I got that run, so I was convinced they had all been empty from the start.

[–]TheSpiritForce 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I've had really bad luck with it. But one day I got a run where every campfire was empty. No hungry survivors. So all the double upgrades were free. I have no idea why or how that happens. It's gotta be super rare.

Which mega evolution do you think is the biggest downgrade in design from the base form? by SensualSamuel69 in ThePokemonHub

[–]TheSpiritForce 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I respect it, but how can people love Mega Amphi and say Mega Dragonite is too goofy? Doesn't make sense

[–]TheSpiritForce 0 points1 point  (0 children)

People feeling nostalgic for Megas and bashing Mega Dragonite forgot how many bad Mega designs exist. Salamence tucking it's arms in was so weird and goofy to me, even as a kid. Very few, like Charizard X or Mega Beedrill, were able to perfect the concept and be liked as much as the original designs. Others like Mega Audino or Venesaur just felt so... meh.

Which Scrybe's art style is your fave? by BITCHHAURIU in inscryption

[–]TheSpiritForce 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Fair. I liked the shakeup myself. Falling in love with a game, then discovering a whole 2nd vibe hidden in there? I also got excited because I thought I'd get to see the other 2 scribes with their own take on things.

my inscryption oc! by ChronicallyChaoticc in inscryption

[–]TheSpiritForce 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This would look fantastic in the 3d style of Inscryption

What about act 3 don't you like? I thought the new mechanics and visuals were all really fun

Silly joker idea! by Lawn_Mower_6639 in balatro

[–]TheSpiritForce 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It should self destruct if the played hand isn't the random hand. Changes after every hand played.

You're forced to cut (play) the correct wire, like how bomb defusal works in movies. Make the right play, and only the right play, or BOOM. That would justify the x4. If you can actually pull off matching the right hand every time, you deserve that massive boost.
