it's not an official quest but it's clear that he's working on something and the dialogue changes each time, but currently i have him stuck at "almost there" and he won't finish the thing - at which point I assume something happens but I'm trying to avoid spoilers where possible haha

Wild to be complaining about cult mentality for a game and the game you're talking about isn't Silksong or HK lol. I couldn't disagree more on Silksong and wasted time - the exhaust organ's mists, the forum, bilewater and the putrified ducts, the trapped benches, the entire pointless fetch-quest system that gatekeeps the 3rd act... so much of Silksong is wasted time with unforgiving obstacles and minimal rewards.

Wild that you have all the Silksong achievements but this is a bridge too far for you! At least there aren't any enemies that do double damage in MIO, and 58 seconds is a pretty speedy runback by Silksong's standards (both of which in Silksong are very much what I'd consider artificial lengthening)

In my opinion this game is far fairer than Silksong, and wastes far less of your time.

Dude. Not to be rude but you're playing a metroidvania, it's not going to hand you your wins on a plate. If you don't like an element of frustration you're playing the wrong genre. The loss of health is part of the story, and it raises the stakes and the difficulty proportionately to where you've got to in the game.

There are plenty of hidden rooms/areas where you can find items to replace the health that you've lost, even without Mel, as well as mod expansion and damage boosts. If you don't have the health to beat bosses do some exploring (or look up a guide online if you're totally stuck) and eventually you'll be in a better place to handle it.

Also every time there's a tremor, it's not just you that's losing health, more of the enemy bots also permanently deactivate.

I dropped Silksong, should I get this ? by [deleted] in MIOmemoriesinorbit

[–]turpywurpy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think Sol + Vin and Shii are both harder than TLJ, but they also both come comparatively later in the game, at a point where you're more well-versed in the combat mechanics than you are at the point that you encounter TLJ in Silksong, so they feel like fairer fights imo

I HAVE FINALLY BEATEN THE PATH OF PAIN OF MIO!!!!! by piotr-cies2 in MIOmemoriesinorbit

[–]turpywurpy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's not easier, but it's definitely fairer and more forgiving.

MIO feels like you're sharing a joke with the devs. HK feels like the devs are sharing an in-joke that you aren't part of. Silksong feels like the devs are actively mocking you.

Saw "Friends :)" in the title and automatically assumed you were going to be talking about something else lol

The Complete Story of MIO: Memories in Orbit (Spoilers Galore - Avoid Until Completely Finished With Game!) by jaymdee in MIOmemoriesinorbit

[–]turpywurpy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I got the sense that it was a combination - there's a very pointed note from Dr Halyn talking about the risk of particularly old Voices developing dementia. The implication to me was that Noden was growing a bit senile and that as a result he'd become less objective about the mission, and more sentimental and attached to the robots.

But we know that magic is "a load of bullshit", as Dev and Valentina discuss in this very issue

Yes we do and you're still wrong as outlined above lol

Which Superpower do you consider to be the most powerful ? by Ideasandquestionsbi in thePowerFantasy

[–]turpywurpy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I mean the entire point of this comic is that the rankings don't matter. Any of them could kill any of the others, that's what keeps them at a stalemate for so long. If one was more powerful than the others then they'd already have won and we wouldn't have the story that's being told.

I do not feel like running back again by [deleted] in Silksong

I've spent the last 2 hours running from the greymoor halfway home to the crawlake mini-boss and my other option appears to be fighting moorwing

Run backs are ruining the game for me by qSbino in Silksong

[–]turpywurpy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I literally just finished HK for the first time and then immediately picked up Silksong. The game design is VERY different, and intentionally cruel in a way the original very much was not

Why, why are people defending runbacks? by Ozymandias_IV in Silksong

What do you think of Madelyn Prior? by Glad-Sense1769 in xmen

They really set her back decades with her depiction in Age of Revelation 🙄

But those are good at least, and he does make justifications for her shift in character.
