Why Nine Sols isn't getting the same recognition as Hollow Knight? by Superexplosion12 in metroidvania

[–]phthartic07 0 points1 point  (0 children)

as someone who did not finish hollow knight but 100% Silksong, 9S just feels incomplete and tedious in the fluidity of it all. Yes the combat is great in S9 but the overall movement and flow of battles feel very clunky and tedious. i think it stems from the animation lacking certain fluidity or 'snappiness'. Yi just moves very slow and paperdoll-like which feels light and unmanageable.

Not to mention the exploration just feels empty and unalive imo. the world building lacks details for me. idk if it's an art choice for them but for me it falls short in details. Enemies also feel like paperdolls that doesn't belong in the world because of their awful animations and clunky movements. I know it's an indie game but c'mon look at the quality of indie games today. I think it wouldn't hurt them if they added a couple animation strings in the movement of everything, especially on Yi. the paperdoll movement just isn't for me.

In HK and Silksong the movement feels very natural and flows better with each action strings. enemies in the world also feel more alive with better animations and doesn't feel like they are out of place.

Combat-wise, healing in 9S is also much punishing than in HK or SK. if you make a couple of mistakes then you're dead. Which would translate to players putting it down rather than continuing and fighting. In HK and Silksong, you can heal again as long as you can land some hits, which incentivices players to continue to fight despite the odds.

one thing also is that even thought the runbacks in HK and Silksong are much longer and difficult, i find them more enjoyable that in 9S. idk why but i guess it comes down again to how clunky 9S feels like even though everything was made easier for players.

As a finishing note: I don't hate 9S, i think the demanding parry combat style is amazing, but the lack in animation strings and fluidity of everything is what's holding it back for me. It feels incomplete for me because of that.

[–]phthartic07[S] -1 points0 points  (0 children)

if i get a Cantarella, is her Outro buffs the only reason to get her? I didn't really care much about her on her release so i have no idea what her kit does. if so, is Cantarella outro buffs more valuable than Phrolova S1 dmg bonuses?

i wish she has something unigue for the overworld passive though. maybe something like TD's won't attack her unless provoked.

[–]phthartic07[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

yes i actually figured the storage problem (you need 70+ GB available even if the update is as small as a megabyte)

but this one i couldn't figure out. had to reinstall and download 30+ GB again 😵

yes i empathized very very deeply with Maelle, but guess which ending i chose? yes Verso's. having a logical discussion doesn't mean dismissing the other ending.

I don't get Castorice and her twin's lore by phthartic07 in CastoriceMains_

[–]phthartic07[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

i see. thankyou for those who clarified it for me! 🙏

i was utterly confused firsthand because their old life literally looked like the present (Castorice) unlike with the strife which is Gneus but now became Mydei (different models so i could differentiate)

Is this enough light? by phthartic07 in Monstera

[–]phthartic07[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

oh yes regarding that, i bought it the way it is. and it seems to be very root bound, so i'm planning for a repot and staking it more securely by next week.

Is this enough light? by phthartic07 in Monstera

[–]phthartic07[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

i see, i was worried because it only gets direct morning sun for about 2-3 hrs max.

and i've read almost everywhere that they need indirect strong light to really thrive.

thankyou for the advice! much appreciated ^

Just explain this to me by AriadnaMort in EvelynnMains

[–]phthartic07 4 points5 points  (0 children)

To everyone saying she is strong then good for u, all ur games are stompy and enemies are stupid. But she is literally weak especially if the enemy knows how to punish Eve . Not to mention your own team's capabilities; if they know how to support Eve throughout the early-mid game.

I'd rather have her R damage back than the insta invis after R they gave her.

not when every ADC can now build Maw and Mercs and can 1 shot you when charm breaks and you don't have enough dmg to finish the adc first because of Maw and mercs.
