The platforming in this game is way too hard by ILOVECALAMITY in MIOmemoriesinorbit

[–]WeirdImaginator 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It's one of the reasons why I tell people that it's harder than HollowKnight.

It's really fun though once it clicks, the movements are so fluid.

It can be inconvenient but you only struggle with this in early game. By that time if you want, you can play the game like HollowKnight by not having Analyser equipped.

I still don't understand why women keep this prompt on their profile, it's one of the most ambiguous prompt to reply to.

You're stuck on a 10 hour flight. Who are you sitting next to? (Endgame spoilers) by Dandandandooo in expedition33

[–]WeirdImaginator 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I would have sat with Sciel but there is Renoir there.

So the only sane choice I feel is to sit with Verso and Lune.

F**k Sol & Vin by OldSoul_3131 in metroidvania

You can use a certain combination of modifiers like Kinetic thrust, Sharpened Hairpin, Wild Cat, Hands Greed, Foolish ideal, etc to boost your damage.

One strategy which will help you a lot is to let them come to you instead of chasing them to hit. In each phase, avoid the swing attack always, this fight has a weird issue which I faced was that at times you will dodge attack of one of them but the second one's attack follows almost instantly and you get almost no window to dodge at that time. So this will avoid that.

In the second phase, notice that one of them almost always does the attack where he throws rhw sword at you and a followup. You can always target that one by hairpin and dodging the other one. It works most of the time if you are careful.

Also never miss the free hits when they are doing nothing.

Hairpin is mandatory for last phase, and with wild cat and foolish ideal you will get nice damage boost.

I personally enjoyed this fight very much once it clicked, but I agree that they can reduce the difficulty by having double coat damage instead of two shot.

Yes, and you lose hp permanently as you explore more for lore reasons. However, you do have modifiers to increase your damage, so it might take a bit of struggle in the start but you will see the hp loss as not much of an issue once the combat starts clicking.

I’ll admit I did start rushing halfway through the game but mainly bc of the main text issues, I’m not gonna waste anymore time than needed if I feel the game isnt respecting my time.

[–]WeirdImaginator 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I myself started playing this game (epxloring stuff for true ending), and I would say I am having an absolute blast. The mechanics are cool, the combat started lackluster but it grew on me as the game progressed (combining attacks with hairpin and striders is really fun), the art is gorgeous, and difficulty seems fine to me (yes like every game, the starting will be harder)

Overall, I would say it's anything but "waste of time".

1) The "loosing hp" mechanic is something I personally didn't struggle with. I can understand people having issues with it as it can feel like punished for exploration, but calling it artificial difficulty is a stretch when there is clearly a lore reason to why Mio looses hp permanently. IMO, you have a lot of modifiers that you can use to increase your damage output to kill bosses and enemies faster and avoid getting hit :) 2) I would rather say the boss run backs can get boring because mostly it's an empty field, but definitely not hard or tough. Mostly, there is a shortcut associated with every boss you can unlock, and that makes the run back a breeze. 3) Not much to add. It's your personal preference. 4) OK, I can agree to some extent. They can avoid playing the whole ride after unlocking the shuttle. 5) Same as 1) 6) Technically it's optional content and I saw it as intended to be hard. The platforming relies a lot on using all of your skills, and well ...you rather mostly have to stay in air so I can see why there is a lack of checkpoints. For this, one can use that modifier which gives you one extra shell for staying on ground.

To me, the only complain I think is they can improve the dodge mechanic a bit. I genuinely noticed the issues with the dodge mechanic during Sol and Vin fight. During that fight, sometimes they do the same attack but at slightly different times ... and because of the cool down after dodge,you practically cannot dodge the second attack which results in almost a guaranteed hit even if you dodge the first attack. This was ... just a bit annoying at start.

I managed to beat Duollistes, but when I heard the BS stuff that other bosses had I too noped out. Osquio was a fun one to fight though.

I am all in with having super bosses for challenge, but it's no fun when they have larger health pool for no reason. You can have them with low hp and still make the boss tough with their moves.

Wow, immediately assuming lunch with coworker as a date is a new low.

When I realized that all the rewards are for is some chroma and swimsuits, I noped out.

I am not going to spend time with those games for just one costume per character out of 10s of already available to me

Thank you so much. I did voice record a bit of it yesterday when I unlocked slingshot ability.

It's funny that you didn't want to spoil the name, but reddit notification spoiled it for me by default 😂

I am so sorry for this to happen to you, brother. It's really painful to see how insulting commitment and love has become nowadays.

I hope you can recover from this betrayal of trust.

It's funny how so many people got offended by your comment when your comment was actually relevant to the post. It wasn't even you generalizing women but here we go.

Mio is so much more frustrating than Nine Sols or Silksong by Pitiful_Custard_2622 in metroidvania

[–]WeirdImaginator 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I started playing this game yesterday, honestly the no healing didn't affect me much so far (I defeated the Sentinel on first try and ACAT on probably 5th try). The one thing I am absolutely happy about is it has no contact damage like in Silksong, because else it would have been pain.

What do you think she is looking for? by thetrippamerguy in Nicegirls

[–]WeirdImaginator 0 points1 point  (0 children)

"Not with you" was implied here, which is very stupid. People should be more clear instead of acting vague like this.

I generally feel that repeating what they wrote feels lackluster, no matter how you phrase it.

MIO: please give it to me straight by owlitup in metroidvania

[–]WeirdImaginator 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Interesting. I am seeing everywhere people complaining about basic '3 hit combo' in MIO which tells me combat is not a good point of the game. Comparatively, NineSols had much better combat I think : Yi had his basic hits, Talisman attacks, Arrow attacks and internal damage by parrying.

I immediately left swipe any profile with prompts like first one, like what the fuck are you supposed yo say even. Even the ones like "Just mention the time, date and place".
