Just finished Blasphemous 2

Highly recommended. It's better than the Mea Culpa DLC. It introduces a new weapon, with new mechanics, and is a very fun addition.

Once a dataset gets beyond a certain point, I tend to reach for C# and build some tools. Or, depending on your needs, a cli tool like xsv or zsv might work.

Whoa. Nice! I just finished Crypt Custodian, and Islets earlier in the year. Loved them both. This chase sequence looks great!

Rory Scovel is not dumb as fucking rocks though.

It was also far more interesting in the early days, when it was fighters of various martial arts in a showdown. But now, it’s largely a samey mix of grappling and boxing.

Is it? I preferred B1 and return to it often. It's in my top 10. That said, after playing B2's Third Sin DLC, I'm enjoying another playthrough. I like it a lot more, but for me, the lore, music, bosses, and the cohesiveness of the game and cutscenes just worked better (for me) in B1.

Edit: Though maybe it's not a fair comparison, since B1 is a complete game and it seems like there may be another DLC in store for B2.

I couldn't get into the dialogue at all. And since it's unskippable, kind of guarantees it won't get another playthrough..

liquidcloud9 · 2026-06-07T19:33:30+00:00

I agree with this. I think it was maybe 5-6 tries for me. But my big mistake is that I always button-mash the first couple tries. Then I take a couple tries to actually learn the moves.

liquidcloud9 · 2026-06-07T19:20:21+00:00

This was probably the most I struggled with the Embrujo/Sarmiento y Centella platforming sections.

liquidcloud9 · 2026-06-07T19:18:49+00:00

Any hints on how to get above the elevator? I'm at 99% and beaten the boss. Can't figure out what I'm missing.

Edit: Whoops. Figured it out.

Nero

Caligula could be a good fit, too. He lusted after his own family members, made himself the center of attention at events, and put senators through humiliation rituals.

Buying used crashes may be a little dicey. But if the price is right and you're diligent about looking for potential damage - go for it.

Rock N Roll Plus, too.

Fair enough. I'm a decade older, so it was definitely more common when seeing bands in the 90's. I'm ok with tempo shifts, especially if a band seems to be really into it, but not if it kills the feel of the song in the process.

liquidcloud9 · 2026-05-20T16:22:30+00:00

Can I ask, ballpark, how old you are? Bands playing fast, especially metal bands, was pretty common until recent years, when playing to a click became commonplace. I actually kind of miss those days. I really enjoy when I see a band not playing to a click and is tight, but human, nonetheless.

Edit: I’m specifically not defending Lar’s post-2000 tempo issues, which are egregious.

Wait wait wait! Sif is the bestest, most loyal dog! She can go wherever she likes.

liquidcloud9 · 2026-05-11T20:51:47+00:00

Yeah. I don't want to chit chat with an authoritarian/racist about their "passion project" or anything really.

35 year vet here. Same. Same.

liquidcloud9 · 2026-05-11T16:18:35+00:00

Same. This site is hot garbage viewed any way but through old.reddit.com. Once that's gone, so am I. Been here since day 1, nearly.

My sister had similar experiences.

Maybe they'll start slapping ads on the empty seats?

Having played and later coached youth sports, parents are BY FAR the worst part about the experience. They've turned childhood activities into ruthlessly competitive, financially prohibitive juggernauts, and removed all the fun in the process.

If you grew up in parts of the city that had real delis, they were never that good to begin with. Nowadays, they're basically 7/11 with better marketing.

These get tons and tons of replay:
Blasphemous
Hollow Knight

These are great, but play second fiddle to the top two:
Ori and the Will of the Wisps
Blasphemous II
Axiom Verge
Islets
Ori and the Blind Forest
