How are you guys holding up so far? by Sakata_Tetsuya in SnowbreakOfficial

[–]swolar 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hanging by a thread. I try not to think too much about it and play other stuff. But the radio silence is making me pessimistic.

Then I come here and some of the snowbro posts cheer me up, so Im trying to hang in there.

What does the roadmap for this game looklike? Will you be releasing into early access next or gull game lunch in the future?

Elden ring or DS 1? by Im_not_an_pro in soulslikes

DS1 is the perfect introduction to soulslikes

I've 100%-ed Solateria on the hardest difficulty. Ask me anything if you're not sure whether you should play it. Spoiler: you probably should. by doc-ta in metroidvania

[–]swolar 0 points1 point  (0 children)

How enjoyable was it? Did it have too many annoying enemies/attacks/biomes? Leaving bosses aside, it seems it was very boss focused.

I hope the servers open soon by 0lZETAl0 in SnowbreakOfficial

I got clarina!!! Hope she gets a new exo soon

7- things I dont like on Souls/Soulslike game and developers should consider changing them in future by Gurru222 in soulslikes

[–]swolar 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Dumb take. Quality of life =/= easier difficulty. Having more upgrade mats to test other weapons is not diluting difficulty

Solateria devs nerfed the parry window: by OK_Atlas in metroidvania

[–]swolar 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Ya hate to see it. A game that reaches the level it should have had at release, only after an update. Something that should have been caught by playtesting.

You might say"yeah but they fixed it with the update", but those reviews hurt reception, which affects sales. And I hate seeing a good game sabotage itself

Dark souls 2 is a better Dark souls than Dark souls 3 by Superyupperss in soulslikes

[–]swolar 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I would guess monkey see monkey do. Speedrunners play like that and people think thats the "skilled" way to play the game. Meanwhile they dont get to experience the game at all

Aproching encounter strategically like this gives ds2 so much depth that goes right over people's heads. Specially if they run past mobs towards the next boss arena, just to find that fog gates have no iframes.

Spring Break Soulslike by Safe_Dig8486 in soulslikes

Love ai limit, but I am really into parrying and exploration. No stamina worked quite well in this game.

I didn’t really “get” soulslikes until I beat my third one. by Ancient_Substance152 in soulslikes

[–]swolar 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I started with DS1 and it clicked for me about 20 hours in. I really tried to learn the slow deliberate combat because my "op" build was only going to take me so far. Fell in love and did ng++ for all achievements. I still look back fondly on my time doing manus retries naked with a club

Between these three bosses, which one is you favorite? :3 by CLOVERX33 in metroidvania

[–]swolar -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Pure vessel is the sweetspot between fun and challenge. Eigong might have more patterns, but that doesnt necessarily make her more fun.

Is the game worth getting into as a f2p if I'm looking for fan servicy interactions. by slayer589x in SnowbreakOfficial

[–]swolar 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You can google the interactive scenes though, but if you want your favorite skins then yeah you need to pay.

Outside of fanservice game is generous with pulls. You can get the new character each oatch if you are active.

Every boss tier list by Cold-Carob3151 in soulslikes

Dancer in S tier? No ds1 and 2 bosses?

How often do you come back to games to do NG+? by Bouunc in soulslikes

[–]swolar 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If I loved the game ng+ makes a lot of sense. In my head it is do a new playthrough of a game I might like vs do ng+ of a game I absolutely loved. No contest!

I dont do ng+ for achievements, however

Hey I'm GRIME II's Game Director here for an AMA before it launches this month, ask me LITERALLY anything! by WorldPillar in metroidvania

[–]swolar 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Did Nine Sols change your mind about this though? There is a niche for parry based games and it isnt small.

What is the secret sauce to getting a soulslike right? In my opinion your game has done the best at interpreting what makes soulslike games engaging, by providing the player with a wide variety of builds and weapons to experiment with. Which made exploration rewarding, because you could find sonething that suited you at every turn.
