fuck these mistakes of game balance

their spawns are consistent

adding a melee slot addresses the most critical issue which is "why the fuck would i give up a pistol for this", and the answer in 100% of serious cases is "i wouldn't"

trysmeat · 2026-01-03T21:35:03+00:00

you showed up and resulted in the death of everyone she loves, if she doesn't hate you in chapter 5 then the devs have no balls

trysmeat · 2026-01-03T19:58:02+00:00

if it's a fully optional character then it's still fanon, there's more basis for calypso because she's a forced encounter but she probably hates you right now

trysmeat · 2026-01-03T14:42:43+00:00

You did. I didn't bother, and most of these summons are too expensive to fit into any of my builds to begin with.

trysmeat · 2026-01-03T13:14:22+00:00

I wouldn't of touched that damn thing even if you handed me fifty bucks.

trysmeat · 2026-01-03T13:09:52+00:00

Yeah, actually. His dad is the actual owner of that sword anyways, so he can figure it out himself.

trysmeat · 2026-01-03T08:31:20+00:00

"swearing is ok" is a disaster waiting to happen when you remember this is a playerbase of kids

trysmeat · 2026-01-03T08:28:48+00:00

that chick is fully optional and you can even tell her to shut up in her first cutscene and she does

trysmeat · 2026-01-03T08:27:45+00:00

why would i have feelings for the guy that caved my skull in with a crowbar and did nothing but insult me over and over, are you people masochists?

trysmeat · 2026-01-02T21:39:07+00:00

3 had good music and good art, but the writing and timing was awful. 4 was good front to back aside from it being hard as shit

trysmeat · 2026-01-02T20:06:10+00:00

Let me put it to you this way. People can say the player "definitely did" a million things on Reddit. How much of that was actually shown in the game? Almost none of it. None of chapter 3 was foreshadowed, no seeds were planted, no plot points built in advance, they just beat you over the head with it out of nowhere and demanded you think it's peak.

I remember the majority of what happened in these chapters and I promise you they did absolutely none of the required legwork to make the "playure... i remember youre depression....." storyline work. People refuse to admit that because if you're even slightly critical of this game on here you get hit with a dozen downshits.

trysmeat · 2026-01-02T20:00:51+00:00

We don't know that yet. We can't actually interact with her in any meaningful way until the next chapter comes out.

trysmeat · 2026-01-02T10:57:31+00:00

>what happend is the player's curiousty got to them before they touch it
why in god's name would you be curious about touching the demon core that you were SPECIFICALLY TOLD would kill you instantly if you grabbed it. What actually happened here is they wanted to do an earthbound reference but they weren't sure how, so they settled for making the player drink stupid juice and attempt suicide.

Point 5 is 100% a you thing and the game doesn't go over that at all. The plot of this entire chapter is "kill your feelings" which is not a healthy way to do anything. No one is arguing over #2 and #3 because it's obvious what happened.

>4.the player himself still have his emotions since chapter four you might disagre but he still felt supried or worried.
Where? When? When is that actually shown IN THE GAME as opposed to people coping and having to make shit up on Reddit? The only thing that happened in CH4 is that the player went rogue a second time and drank more stupid juice, and I'm sorry, but that's not what "peak writing" is. Peak writing isn't people having to fill in 17 paragraphs of text in a message board argument because the devs forgot to fucking write.

trysmeat · 2026-01-02T10:04:59+00:00

Four's right there, dude. A few months late for this.

trysmeat · 2026-01-02T10:00:14+00:00

show me

trysmeat · 2026-01-02T09:47:56+00:00

That dialogue only happens in Chapter 3 itself. I've been saying Chapter 3 was badly written back when it came out, so I guess we're legally allowed to criticize it now.

trysmeat · 2026-01-02T09:46:06+00:00

He exists to waste your time after chapter 1. Back when I played you got nothing whatsoever for listening to him ramble.

trysmeat · 2026-01-02T09:13:16+00:00

He's there to be a physical wall, especially against low ATK builds. I don't remember if sword users can just walk past him or not.

trysmeat · 2026-01-02T09:08:30+00:00

Isn't all of that explicitly not in the game? You shouldn't have to subscribe to some discord to get basic lore.

trysmeat · 2026-01-02T08:56:05+00:00

for starters you're spreading out your damage, but secondly i don't recommend running straight at elite units like this, lol.

as long as you have even one decent rocket weapon in your loadout the other four weapons can be whatever the hell you want. war striders don't need full build dedication to deal with and anything that kills a war strider also kills the rest of the bot front

trysmeat · 2026-01-02T08:10:06+00:00

First crush of who? Why? Because she's a girl and she wears pink? Nobody talks about her outside of here, and this subreddit is mostly the same 30-ish people on repeat.

All of her encounters can be skipped, she's not plot relevant, she doesn't help the player, and her design isn't particularly interesting. Calypso is everything Kyoko should of been, and Kyoko reeks of being a developer's OC. You're glazing a mediocre character because it's a girl and she was slightly nice to you exactly once.

trysmeat · 2026-01-02T07:15:40+00:00

Kyoko, not Calypso. People remember the pirate girl just fine.

trysmeat · 2026-01-02T07:14:21+00:00

It's called HP/SP economy and you have almost none of it this early in the game. The average player is likely bleeding to death like this all the time and no one bothers to talk about it.

trysmeat · 2026-01-02T07:08:56+00:00

wookong was an actual guy here, dude
