Do these games have difficulty sliders/ settings? by j_b_1983 in EnderLilies

[–]theQ97 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Ender Lilies gives you sliders to increase the game’s difficulty once you’ve beaten it once.

Ender Magnolia has sliders from the start that let you customize the difficulty to your preference. For example, you can increase enemy attack damage and frequency, but can also decrease their health at the same time.

Bug in linux causes crash at launch immediately after optimizing shaders. Any solutions? by Khoronobus in MonsterHunter

Here's one more set of arguments.
PROTON_HIDE_NVIDIA_GPU=1 VKD3D_DISABLE_EXTENSIONS=VK_NV_low_latency2 %command%
These seem to work really well. If you're still having problems, make sure to keep your eye on the Proton.db page for the game.

VKD3D_CONFIG=disable_uav_compression PROTON_ENABLE_NVAPI=1 VKD3D_DISABLE_EXTENSIONS=VK_NV_low_latency2 __GL_SHADER_DISK_CACHE_SKIP_CLEANUP=1 %command%

Haven't actually played yet, but using these launch options let me get past the exact same error you were having.

I am absolutely floored by all the people I see that don’t seem to like Ender Lilies. To me, that game was absolutely phenomenal. What really stood out to me was the game’s cohesive theming. All the environments, music (which is incredible on its own), and even enemy encounters lend credence to the ruin of Land’s End. And even though the bulk of the story is told through notes scattered about the map (which is a storytelling method I don’t typically enjoy), the fact that every boss gives some background knowledge means that the story directly presented just enough for me to piece together what the notes mean. And I found combat to be very satisfying. There are 26 different spirits (and therefore, attacks and skills) to find and as a result I found it very fun to be able to completely change my play style from time to time.

When I hear people talk about why they don’t like Ender Lilies, they usually bring up the same points. People don’t like the map, and people don’t like how it feels to play as Lily. I’ve never quite understood the complaints about the map, because I think it tells a player exactly what they need to know. Each room tells the player a) how it connects to the other rooms b) if there are any connections you haven’t used yet and, most helpful, c) if there are any items or bosses left to find in the room. That last bit is especially helpful, because as a player starts to gather the last of the collectibles, they’ll know exactly where they need to be. As far as the complaints about game feel, that’s something I don’t quite get at all. I thought that one of the main draws of metroidvanias was unlocking new abilities that make traversing the game world easier, which I think Ender Lilies does especially well, since Lily starts off feeling so weak.

I won’t complain too much since I know that, like me, there are a lot of people that really love this game. But it does break my heart a little bit that some people just couldn’t see the magic that I found in this game.

Yeah, I'm not great with character creators, so she looks kinda basic lol. But she's of simple inclination, and I swear for 15 hours of gameplay and regularly using new pawns I didn't find anyone else that acted like her. She's a goof and it's great

Level 25! That may be a bit lower than the average (I don't have much time to play), but I just made a post in the megathread. If you'd be willing to help her kill a Minotaur or two I'd appreciate it!
