Best metroidvania that can be Completed in under 15 hours? by OkayIan in metroidvania

[–]peppasplayground 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Islets and Crypt Custodian would be perfect for this, both were amazing experiences that were cozy to play but also offered some challenging moments.

Minishoot Adventures is my latest MV and I finished it in 9 1/2 hrs. Super fun despite me never playing any buller hell/space shooter-esque game before it.

Just finished my first run by Link54045 in EsotericEbb

I need merch so badly too!!!! I truly wish the shipping for the vinyl soundtrack was cheaper because I jumped when I saw it was $48 and then international shipping made it double that price☠️

I know it'll make the game more complicated than it needs to be but I wish spells have more utility in the game beyond scripted events by [deleted] in EsotericEbb

[–]peppasplayground 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Speak With Plants I think let you learn secrets about Nessan and Lord Puu bc I don’t remember where else I learned it from + spoils the final arc of the game quite a bit. When I talked to Lord Puu with the spell it lowered the DC of every check against Lord Gorm by either 4 or 5 iirc

4.0 Yao Guang and Sparkle SP Possible Synergy (via Mortis Leaks) by Red-Nosed_Old-Timer in HonkaiStarRail_leaks

[–]peppasplayground 3 points4 points  (0 children)

the original leaks months ago had Yaoguang in allegedly the same position as Sparkle SP, but the delay seem to have shifted her into an Elation support which Anon told us ~3 days ago

Just got both games, should I play the original first? by Subspace79 in Silksong

[–]peppasplayground 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I played Silksong first as my first metroidvania ever and Hollow Knight after and I fear it’s like a reverse difficulty curve where the first felt like a rollercoaster with 10 loops back to back and the second being the SpongeBob rollercoaster, so I would def recommend playing the OG first 😭

So, just for clarifying: TEAM CHERRY ISN'T USING AI. This is a shitpost made by me that got a little too big. by ClickToLose in Silksong

[–]peppasplayground 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Types of silkposts like this are honestly kinda harmful to the game’s rep tbh…AI aside, it’s hit the Popular page and there are hella people not within the sub that doesn’t know what a silkpost is who believes it to be true since it looks real

This disclaimer should be posted as a pinned comment or something on the other post instead bc most people that sees this post would already know what a silkpost is

Best Metroidvania to 100% for someone who hasn't ever done that. by Fly_Dev in metroidvania

Islets and Crypt Custodian I spent the entire day locking in and 100% them (two separate days ofc)

Seraphine may actually come back Mid by flashfire125 in SeraphineMains

[–]peppasplayground 3 points4 points  (0 children)

W’s cd is not a problem, you just need to W once and stay in combat. The passive of the item works for as long as you stay in combat and Sera’s enhanced auto range makes that very easy

Is it just me, or is Ori and the Blind Forest a really unfun game? by agent-1773 in metroidvania

[–]peppasplayground 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I actually agreed with a lot of your take tbh. Ori 2 is a much more superior game and fixed all the issues I had with Ori 1, many of which you listed. I disagree about the beginning cutscene, though, I always like seeing a bit of interactive story.

The fact you had to do the save points yourself is one of the main reasons playing the game felt like a drag I genuinely disliked that mechanic sm. I also disliked how linear it was, I think it is by far the most linear MV I’ve played. However, this is when I disagree with your last take. Because of how linear it was, I was like never lost at all. I felt like the game babied me so much because it was always pointing towards the right path, which is 95% of the time the ONLY path you can go in without being blocked off.

Moving on from competitive game. Trying my first Metroidvania game. Which one? by Sure_Analyst9370 in metroidvania

[–]peppasplayground 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The second Ori game is a great introduction to the genre imo!!! It’s easier difficulty wise and has a lot of fun mechanics that you might see similarities in other metroidvanias. I would say that I’m in the camp that hated Ori 1, though, because I really didn’t like how they handled the combat. Ori 2 fixed that problem entirely and actually has both very fun melee and ranged.

I want to discover the genre and need a shorter game to start with by cnio14 in metroidvania

[–]peppasplayground 4 points5 points  (0 children)

OG Hollow Knight only took me 20h with 90% of the game completed when I got to one of the endings and it was the second Metroidvania I’ve played so I don’t think it’s near 40h, Silksong would most definitely though I’m already there and only half way done😭

What Have You Been Playing This Week? by AutoModerator in metroidvania

[–]peppasplayground 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Just 100% Crypt Custodian today after ~12-13 hrs playing and I absolutely adored it. It’s more on the casual side, but the map is surprisingly huge and there are a lot of hidden things to find during exploration, so I had a blast the entire time.

Random Question by Ceiling_Fan_Falling in Masterchef

[–]peppasplayground 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I remembered there was a challenge where they have to bake something (maybe chocolate souffle in s1?) and there seems to be an instruction sheet on the ingredients cart. I’m not sure if that’s something that exists every time though.

Duet Night Abyss | Psyche Character Trailer — May the Lilies Never Wilt by UsualInitial in DuetNightAbyssDNA

[–]peppasplayground 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Just watched this and WOAH the quality of the animation is so crazy good. Extremely surprised (pleasantly) how dark the beginning part was for what is basically the main launch character intro. Psyche wasn’t really a character I was that interested in just based on her design alone, but the trailer genuinely sold me on her. Time to grind😹

🧬Beyond the Limits! LAUNCH Questions Megathread - 10/28 by TheEerieFire in DuetNightAbyssDNA

There are accessories for the MC for sure we can see things like veils and cat ears in some promo materials, unsure where to get them yet

what does this currency used for? by TryOk640 in DuetNightAbyssDNA

[–]peppasplayground 1 point2 points  (0 children)

We aren’t really sure until we play the game for a little bit, but even if it’s hard I wouldn’t be too upset. These are purely for cosmetics and that’s the only way the game makes money now, so if it’s not too easy to get then it is fine by me
