『Dolls Nest:ORPHANS』The mecha girl action game originally created by Nitroplus has been reimagined as a comic from a unique perspective by up-and-coming manga artist Nykken and original scenario writer Kenji Maejima!https://comic-walker.com/detail/KC_008597_S/episodes/KC_0085970000200011_E?episodeType=first
I'm not the original translate anon but I like the manga so I'll try dumping the new chapterhttps://comic-walker.com/detail/KC_008597_S/episodes/KC_0085970000500011_E?episodeType=latest
laser drones are so cool. Too bad their so fucking shit, and heavy. Like why?
Hati butt
dunno if those gas tanks actually do damage but fuck if I know I just stucks to it's ass.
And that's all for now. Don't be like seedling, hit it's weakspot instead.
Thanks OP, glad to see this thread back
>>23904635I hope this becomes a reoccuring thing. Kinda a shame the game sidelines hati so much.
>>23904663God damm jane nest is a scrub probably not playing on hardmode either. Also, i am surprised they are giving this much attention to the literal first boss of the game, dude has 0 Lore to his name and got a full chapter to his battle
>>23905161Thats because tank boss is a well designed boss especially compared to the first level bosses. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QT1BdtkNU2YAnd its theme really slaps.But yeah seedling is kind of an idiot
Eng translations outhttps://mangadex.org/chapter/b39a0f29-a5e0-4c0e-ae60-b1f52285f0d8/2Dunno how this thread's down to page 9 already?
That's a lot of stairs
If sneedling is struggling against autonomous tank. She's gonna have a bitch of a time with the helicopter
>>23907738That depends on the route she takes. She could have a sniper cannon by then if she goes through the other areas first.
>>23907865She's more likely to have the sabi as her future dps since manga sneedling is very melee focused.
doll fights are disappointingly easy. atleast random ac fights heal these guys just straight up give up when near dead.
>>23905161Tbf tank boss is actually kind of a hard boss and has the hp to back it up. Well it and leto.
>>23904613>>23904614Why is Hatis build so fucking ass?
>>23909905The railgun is decent(for anti nymph duty, which this isn't) and I think that was one of the more usable missile pods? The rifle isn't totally unplayable either. The real issue is her frame parts don't really excel at much.
>>23909905Eden trained her wrong on purpose, as a joke.
>>23910207>anti nymphNymphs are so fragile save for that tankgirl(not gili). Railguns dont justify their lengthy firing sequence for mid damage.Dansleif's fine but the beam gatling is too heavy for most builds.
Am I low iq or are these panels hard to follow? The art work is nice and hatis dumptruck looks delightful but I feel like the artist needs to work on the framing better.
>>23910800Hati's Femt pierces shields which makes it quite nice(but obviously not relevant here). I don't know what you mean by lengthy firing sequence either. I used the fuck out of it in the second half of the game and it never felt bad.
>>23910872I think some pages whenever both mc and hati are in action can get confusing. But mc is basically ignoring hati for the most part.Anyways upper levels is pretty but fuck I hate those flying drones.
>>23910872The action ones always looks like a mess to me, I give up on trying to parse it half the time.
definitely not yodo's twin. That's it for this month's chapters
>>23912167Engaging pheromone releasing behavior with Yoyo!
>>23912167Huh. This is straight from the official comic-walker JP release.Are they eventually gonna do a full English release?
>>23911292drop the shotgun and use ar's. their bullet speed consistently hits the drones>>23912167>>23912348>it's official well that's a surprise. It's prolly ai'd tld.
>>23912167>that character history;_;
>>23911026>I don't know what you mean by lengthy firing sequence eitherthe time it takes for the femt to fire, my gram would have killed whatever it's aiming at.
>>23913315Your gram would just tickle the shields, meanwhile femt punches straight through. I preferred gungnir for missile pods. Right tool for the right job.
>>23913364femt misses hurts more than gram whiffs. And besides shields are already easy to break
First holy fuck the depths is dark as fuck. Second, I really wish the depths had more health cause that is the most ac fight I've had in the game.
Manga's making me wish the main game had more hati interaction. Kinda weird we just dumped her near the church at the end of the game.
>>23915104I'm pretty sure they ran out of time when they were doing the quest lines.
>>23914988Hard Mode has Unidentified Frame Unit restore her entire healthbar on top of her already boosted stats in what is basically a third phase. It's overboard though, as she's already hard to hit. Had to Pshik-cheese to beat her, otherwise I was dealing basically no DPS.
>>23915152It does feel like it. Forbidden and tomb are barebones as fuck but gili veli felt like all the effort on the lower floor went to her.Shame i quite like manga yoyo and hatis friendship.
reading this made me want to replay the game, how hard is fresh NG hard mode?
>>23918472HP and damage of enemies is higher and bosses get new moves or gimmicks. Really depends on what weapons you use, as some less efficient ones have a very real chance of running out of ammo.
>>23918479Are AR/SMG still king and flashier weapons still not worth using? I don't remember the name but I used mostly used double AR and double back cannon.
Really like how the manga doubles down on the collective society robot ant girl mindset of Nymphs. Despite being an outcast, Yoyo is still predisposed to easily get lonely and find someone she can be part of the group with. And Hati is all too eager to befriend people too. And it was only a brief showing, but we also see the violent group vs group dynamics too as we see the sheer vitriol the Gypro-Verde Nymph and the Gardinigger Nymphs had against each other.Loner Nymphs (AKA "motherless" Seedlings) are viewed as completely alien and uneasy company. Though I imagine that Nanakino is half-baked even by Seedling standards since Nehma made her at only a fraction of her power as a lawn ornament. Seedlings were supposed to be agents of chaos that sowed discord within colonies and convinced Nymphs to betray their queens. So I imagine that the average Seedling in Nehma's golden era was actually quite attractive and charismatic. Nanakino is well, a couple of cans short of a six pack it seems.
I wonder do they have any plan for console ports? I would love double dipping this on Switch 2.
>>23918483The charged greatsword is probably the best weapon overall. It does massive damage to everything and the charge mechanic is actually an advantage because it only costs energy when it starts charging and you can hold the charge for as long as you want, meaning you don't have to spend any energy when you're in melee range.
>>23918922Sabi is still the best.
>>23919011>flying enemyLmao
>>23919317Skill issue, just nagara damashi harder.
>>23919324Let me guess, you need takama and takemi set too?
>>23919374Nyess. Just the hat and utility though.
>>23917153yikes i hate hard mode that's just hp bloat.>oh shit gank boss>easiest boss yet. Well that was underwhelming. Atleast the boss the music was really cool.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zyQuK8Ldiqk
>>23919715Bosses at least got new attack, for normal mobs the bloat in HP kinda incentivize you to change your strategy to targeting their weakspot or risk running out of BP.
>>23919906Just run past them or stuff your mouth with bricks.
I need a mod that buffs all guns ammo count.
Just bought this game in the Steam sale. What's a good way to deal with shield enemies? I'm in the Arboreal Nest right now, and I'm finding a bunch of them in tight chokepoints or walkways. I have the piercing laser weapon, but that seems kind of expensive to use given how many of these enemies there are.
Bait the or a charge or fly on top of them. Alternatively you can just use beam weapons. Trio is good at dealing with middle level enemies.
>>23924125Melee is god tier in general. Either the folding greatsword or the sabi are easy modo.
>>23924125Fly on top of them. The chicken with the shields with sometimes charge at you. Bait them and shoot their backs.Do not fall for memelee shit. They're good for bosses but not basic mobs, especially the spider tanks.
How am I supposed to compare equipment stats? The Valdol legs have a Jump Ability stat over 20k points higher than that of the starter legs, but using it barely increases how high I can jump. Meanwhile, this SMG's Rapid Fire stat is just 27 points higher than the starter AR's, but it feels like it fires twice as fast.
>>23924421it depends on the leg type. Hover legs are all about sustain while rocket has the highest jump. Also your booster half contributes to how high your jump height is.guns each have a seperate stat spread between categories. that cannot really be compared with different types. For example the ars have a more modest rf with high projectile speed, while smgs and discharge have spray and pray speeds and mid to close range.
>>23924125>What's a good way to deal with enemiesignore them
>>23924649That's lame and gay. Hod must be littered with the bodies of my foes.
>>23924716>Hod must be littered with the bodies of my foesAre you a gardinigger?
>>23925212Nymphs are a race of antgirls anon. If they meet another Nymph that doesn't smell like their approved version of smelly, there's only two outcomes for that Nymph: Death or Enslavement.
>>23925596I'd really rather be enslaved by Alqand and be forced to wear those lewd nun clothes while pleasuring Alqand Bishops than be forced to work in a mine or some shit by Gardiniggers.
>>23925596My only complaint in this game is I don't get to kill enough gardeniggers to sate my murderseedlings bloodlust.
Is there any good weapon rebalance mod for hard mode? I want to use anything other than regular rifle, missile or cannon but most of them are so BP inefficient.
>>23925212Equipment lore entries in the game show that the preferred Gardina way of dealing with Gypro-Verde remnants and their heavy defensive gear was torching them alive with flame/heat equipment and turning their fortress on wheels into portable ovens.The fact that these Gardiniggers went out of their way to make it quick for the Gypro-Verde Nymph via Potato God to the face means that believe it or not, this squad was probably one of the nicer ones.
Does this game have any melee that shoots sword wave like Moonlight? Where can I find one?
>>23926107no beam swords here sadly.
>>23926123That's sad, if they ever decide to make a sequel I hope they add one.
>>23925744Iirc there is one that rebalanced the weapons to make none AR and SMG weapons actually usesble, and make dual weilding pistols viable. It also makes back weapons worth taking iirc, I can't remember what it's called though. Google or search through the steam mods, you'll find one
>>23926244A sequel and/or dlc are hopefully in the works as the game broke sales records on release
>>23926101>this squad was probably one of the nicer onesOr, I don't think gardinan are as superior as they make them out to be.
Gardina did nothing wrong. You all just hate them because you are jealous of the best hive.
>>23926600you literally get killed for slight wrong think if you're a gardinigger
>>23926606As it should be. We have no time for weird freaky "religions".
>>23926616>gets mogged by god's weakest murderhoboGardina, more like GardiSHIT
If ant girls operate mostly on smell why don't they just bath their spec ops instead of breeding weird smelless ants?
>>23926657trying bathing an ant. It dies.
>>23926663What if you dip them just one limb at a time? Or they hold their breath or something?
>>23926594>Me and helibros taking out the trash
>>23926657Nymphs like yodo or yoyo are apparently a rarity. Besides its kinda pointless since stealth only works for retarded gardinians.
>>23926600One Alqand nymph was a tougher opponent than three Gardina nymphs.
>>23926594I swear the amazon warehouse was harder than those three bozos
>>23926904Exactly, imagine if you could just bathe your stinky ant girl for stealth instead.
NAGARA STACIES WHERE WE AT
>>23926594>only gank boss fight in the game>last boss of middle level>easy as fuckNot even hard mods can salvage them
>>23928227Stuck on the heli boss because it won't come down and let me stab it.
>>23929394it gets easier in the second phase when it starts doing bomb drops
>>23926279Crazy how Dolls Nest 2 is looking more likely than Armored Core 7.
>>23929897>Dolls Nest 2Please give them a budget at least. Game was made on a shoestring coated on hopes and dreams. I love it but damm it's rough. Also add more Twintail options, the superior hairstyle
>>23929913Its prolly their first game they made that made gangbusters profit.
>>23930005I know, I have been following nitroplus for years, they are VN devs by trade, and vns make like 0 cash
>>23930005>>23930043Good. Mecha musume is barely touched upon niche, and everyone's tired of it being stuck to gacha shit.Help that it rode AC and megastructures resurgence
Besides pistols, is there any point in holding onto duplicate equipment?
>>23930315Having a second sabi can be fun since swapping is faster than waiting for the cooldown. Otherwise unless you want to mess around with lower upgrade levels of shit for whatever reason, no.
>had this on the ol' wishlist after playing the demo on release>forgot about it till now>on sale>try the demo againyeah alright being a retarded ant on a shitbox tank with ass weapons and getting stomped by the tank boss was funprobably gonna grab the game before the sales end
>>23930451Have fun anon, game has some roughness but it's also got a lot of charm.
>>23930464are most weapons equally as worthless in the main game?the back guns on my tank hit the variants like nerf darts, my main dps being the basic shotgun and the stupid firing stance gattling
>>23930468There are a few back weapons that are decent, but very few are BP efficient though. Most main weapons are at least useable though. The main value of back weapons is you can shoot them while shooting your main.
>>23928227>NAGARA STACIES WHERE WE ATLower Levels.Mostly all dead.Surrounded by Poison Marshes.All our sisters corpses are being puppeteered by face hugging variant bugs.It's a living.
Is it cheating if I have a cadalbolg if I want to go full nagara build.
>>23926678The other ants will kill it if they dont detect their own smell on the ant.
>>23921651I'd rather have something to buff projectile speeds, all bullets are so slow.
>>23930468main weapons are useable but have weird balance. ARs/beam guns are all round good and bp efficient. BR/compress have bad ttk and ammo inefficientsmg/discharge are only usable in close rangeshotties/wave are kinda shit save for like two weaponsGrenades are all garbagebubble guns are decent against ground targets and bosses but shit at anything that flies and nymphshandguns are a cool meme, but not very usable since status stacking is rarely worth itmelee is strong but two handed and sabi are the only ones worth going for. Rear weapons all suck save for gram, gungnir, BulgVolc2, and Garand any guns that reguires tank legs are fucking shit
>>23930548>cant be dumbass quadriplegic ant girl in her death zamboniit was funny as fuck to drive the damn tank up stairs. ah wellim pretty much sold on the game after beating the demo are. any other things i should keep an eye out for?
>>23930575If you're in the lower level prioritize the invisible spider tank. It'll spawn those annoying tiny shotgun spiders infinitely until you kill it. And stack up on luminous orbs.
>>23930575Don't worry about status resistances on equipment. For the most part it doesn't matter until you get to late-game areas, and by then you'll have enough consumables to deal with it anyway.
>>23930095>AC and megastructures resurgenceI get the AC resurgence but megastructures? Name a few new titles (as in from the last three years) that feature them. Video games, manga, anime, doesn't matter which.
>>23930346>SabiI like the Muramasa sword more, to be honest. Does it benefit from the movement speed damage boost too? I tried testing it but I only could reliably land hits on targets that die in one hit anyway.
>>23930451The tank boss is in the demo now?
>>23930548The weapon balance is definitely my biggest complaint with the game so far.
>>23931212Its the wheeled fucker in the manga page
>>23931821>>23930451yeah they later updated the demo to have the tank and parts of the decayed broodchamber
Man, (We)'re kind of an asshole.
>>23932961Now post the first page of the next chapter
https://x.com/melon_manga/status/2072956705357590979NanaKINO merch.
>>23933301I like the lilac color scheme. But I still prefer the red white color scheme she first had.
What are the devs working on now? I’d love more of this.
>>23933319Looks like it was always intended to be Lilac, but funky lighting and all in pic related.
>>23933301Speaking of this, I remember they revealed some sort of gunpla/30ms of the Unidentified Frame Unit boss. Any news on that?
>>23935707It was shown again at the Shizuoka hobby show like a couple of months back. Still only an unpainted prototype though.
KINO in the first Tankoubon cover.
>>23936797That covers goes pretty hard>>23936418>>23935707Do note its by gsc so its either moderoid or plamatea. Which means its backlogged hard.
>>23904585The game looks cool but I don’t wanna play as a girl so I won’t buy it until there is a male character mod
>>23936797DN has great creative vision for its world and characters and if nothing else, the manga does justice in depicting said vision when its not held back by the limitations of an indie game filled with stock assets and a budget entirely composed of used napkins and a cardboard box full of hopes and dreams.But that just makes me wish for an iteration of the game with an actual budget this time.
>>23936797What was Metametria Corporation's end goal when they designed the Nymphs with realistic and shapely breast nanofibers to simulate real ones. What tactical advantage do they offer.
>>23936911pretty sure nymphs are hod's oc creations since they showed up when humans were dying out. Nehma did state nymphs are technically a variant.
>>23904652Turns out shooting gas tanks does fucking nothing.
>>23936965Nymphs in their modern form are Hod/Nehma's whim. But the first generation of Nymphs (i.e. the ones with very explicit doll Joints and less sentience) were already around when Humans were still in Hod. There's a reason why the Humans gave Hod the codename "Dolls Nest" since evidently, by that point, Hod's primary arms force was adorable anime antgirl T-1000s. Hod was more or less a massive Cell (i.e. the magic scifi doohickey for the setting, tldr its fucking nanomachines) research facility and production factory of Metametria Corporation. And Cell-based lifeforms were one of Hod's main outputs and effectively all of those lifeforms are under the umbrella category of variants. But clearly, someone in the Metametria upper brass went:>We have developed the cutting edge technology to play god and create life as we will. Let's create sick sentient weapons>Shall we release a batch of unholy insect-like Necromorph shit that ravenously destroys everything in its path?>No, lets make a bunch of hot anime ant girls that we can strap on AC parts toHonestly, I respect the hustle. Funny to imagine that there were probably Metametria staff that tried taking home a couple of Archetype Nymphs home for uh, "personal research"
Nymphs are just sex bots gone rouge because they have no ningens to sex.
New chapter out
>>23937327Yoyo nooo
Tank got NAGARA DAMASHII'dTHE SUPERIOR NEST.AlsoThe start of Seedling and Hati's relationship is WAY rockier and bloodthirsty compared to the game. Based toxic Yuri.
>Mitsuha: Hang on, that's my fucking gimmick!
>Focusing on the targeting system makes Hati's eyes bulge out and get all veinyNeat detail. I guess that's why there are the visor type head gear? Extra equipment to help with aiming so that a Nymph doesn't blow her eyes out? >>23937379NA-GA-RANA-GA-RABeing such a Nagara-inclined melee fag makes in inevitable that Nanakino's signature weapon is gonna be the Sabi down the line huh? Gotta integrate the WAGA YAIBA twins into the plot somehow.
>>23937386Very likely seedling will get the sabi later down the story and get ditched for the yoyo flavoured kulim again
>>23937386Can't wait for the sword duel with Nameless.
>>23937404>tfw she parries Nameless' fuckhuge Moonlight Laser sword with the SabiGonna be NanaKINO.
hey look a Gits reference
>>23937401>>23937420Pretty consistent with the ass shading, huh.
wtf sneedling
And that's all for now. Don't be like seedling, pointing guns at yoyo is a nono.
>>23937444Thanks for dumping.
>>23937305>Yoyo, are you okay?>Y-Yes, thank you very much>Ah!>Hati-san, y-your leg!>It's not a huge deal...>It IS a huge deal!>Really, my legs are fine...It's that hunk of metal that's the problem at the moment.
>>23937311>The armor seems to harden at the moment of impact. Is the armor material (furigana: CELL) undergoing instantenous compression maybe?>Just where is it getting that much computing power to do all of that?>Either way, mass and momentum alone won't cut it if we want to penetrate its armor.>What we need is enough heat to break down the bonding of the armor material (furigna: CELL) itself.>With her current loadout, the girl is a poor match for that thing>As someone fighting that thing head on, she should be aware of this and yet..>Why is she refusing to back down?First mention of the general use macguffin of Cells in the manga btw.
Might as well do two of the only relevant spread page
>>23937452>>23937455that would have been a cool gimmick if tank boss functioned like wall juggernaut and nailed you in the head to focus on the back/weak spot
Had to step out for a bit.>>23937318>M-Maybe she has a reason why she can't back down...>The mere fact that there are other Nymphs down here in the depths is already quite strange, so she may have some kind of mission to complete.>Is there any way we can help?>...>It's gonna be a gamble, but lets give it a shot.>The armor material (furigana: CELL) reveals its vulnerability to heat upon impact. So my Dainslef can then break it apart and the FEMT will penetrate it and finish the job.>The problem however is that to even get to that point, we're gonna need a bit more firepower.>Weakness to heat....>..Heat!?
>>23937320>Yoyo... what are you talking about?>I'm going to help out.... a friend.>It's going to be fine.>The one thing I'm good at is hiding.>Y-Yoyo!>!?
>>23937331>She's gone...? Did the bombardment earlier damage my head equipment?>Yoyo! Don't be so reckless! Come back!>This is bad.... at this rate we'll be overwhelmed...>I have no choice but to do it now...
>>23937345>Hnngh.. It's been a while since I played the game, but were there doping/buffing items? It's what I presume Hati is using here.I honestly only ever used the HP/BP restores and the shiny rocks for that one zone in the depths.
>>23937359>Heat! Its weakness is heat!>This child... please take it!>Wahyaa!?
>>23937365>TARGET LOCKED
>>23937369>...Huh!?>It didn't penetrate!?>T-This child...>Just one more hit... if I could just land one more....!>Reloading.... damn it I'm not gonna make it...!!
>>23937379>Nanakino-san! Please throw it away!>I messed up the repairs! It's out of control!So apparently, a poorly repaired Kulim turns it into a fucking Mitsuha or AC Laser blade with a giant fuck you reach. It's not a bug, it's a goddamn feature now.
>>23937381Been a while since I played the game, so forgive me if I'm a bit inconsistent with the translation the game chose for the more religious terminologies>O merciful goddess, I am ever so grateful for your guidance in leading me towards the land of roots>So I pray, please grant me one more miracle!
>>23937412>D-Did we do it?>Aurum...
>>23937416>Dissipating heat!?>Is it planning to self-destruct and take us out with it!?
>>23937418>Hati-san!>...Sorry..>Looks like there's nothing left we can do...
>>23937420>....Give it back...
>>23937424>Nanakino-san!>GIVE IT BACK! MY MASTER'S...>MOTHER'S BODY!!On a side note, Jesus Fucking Christ. >>23937427 she fucking tore off the turret with her own sneedling retard strength. No wonder the other Nests were very wary of Seedlings during Nehma's prime. Nehma's mommy issue daughters don't fuck around when they're really serious.
>>23937430>....Mother... For what it's worth, Nanakino uses the very formal "Okaa-sama" when referring to Nehma. So she switched from the very stiff "Aruji (i.e. Master)" to Mother during this intense moment. Evidently Yoyo's earlier speech about Mother trees got to her. Our murderhobo sneedling is finally developing emotions.
>>23937435>Nanakino-san!>Where are....>Ah!>Over there...!>You shouldn't be walking around with an injury like that!>We have repair materials available so...!
>>23937438>>23937442>>23937464>HEY! WHAT THE HELL YOUR DEAL!?>YOU'RE YOYO'S FRIEND AREN'T YOU!?Ladies, it's way too fucking early to have your average Yuri pairing dynamic here. Save the hatesex for later, a child is watching.
>>23937444>Nanakino-san...All in all, my favourite chapter thus far. Nykken seems to have gotten a better grasp of depicting humanoid robot vs. giant fuck you death machine because I actually clearly understood the fight scenes. Lots of lore bits and equipment references that will make the people that played the games point at the screen and there's actually a pretty good scene of Nanakino finally exhibiting more intense emotions, setting up her own character arc (and potential drama down the line because all players know that Nehma is kind of a bitch and a really shitty mother) and a more rocky but also more interesting initial character dynamic with Hati (i.e. Hati being very wary of Nanakino whom she views as a murderhobo with a very alien mindset), who I presume will actually be her primary companion for most of the story.Also, lots of nice Nanakino ass.
>>23937616Rarely used them too since you can only have one per slot and piercing isn't all that great
>>23937663I think we're not gonna have a proper broodchamber in this manga since that would require yoyo tagging along with us. And sneedling's already burning bridges before it's even laid out.
>>23937427What the fuck. How come my Seedling is lame and gay. I also want my Seedling to rip out the turrents of giant battle tanks with her bare arms.
>Nanakino is a huge Nehma's girl with massive mommy issues>She goes turbo murderhobo with retard strength at anyone keeping parts of mommy away from herGARDINIGGER GENOCIDE SOON.ITS GONNA BE GLORIOUS
>>23937663thanks the tls anon
>>23937676Tear the gank squad limb from limb. Use their heads as a hat. Also I can't wait for the true NAGARA TOTSUGEKI battle against the fallen soldier
>>23930575Adding to what >>23930575 said, there are three invisible* spider tanks in the Accumulation Zone that spawn infinite waves of tiny shotgun drones that stack Corrosion (the 2nd worse status effect behind Parasite) on to you. You can find them by tracing the swarms of drones back to the mothertank.Whilst your down there keep an eye out in any tight tunnels for a blue glow. If you see it, dodge out of los, you WILL lose that stand up fight. Shoot it when it's recharging or move up the opposite corridor (it's at a crossroads) and engage at range. It's shots are slow but will rape you if they hit.Also consider the Weapon Balance mod that makes thr guns more viable. And the long range spike cannon enemy has a purpose, look at the wall by the lower platforms further along.*technically it only goes invisible and starts spawning when it detects you but it has a no los detection range of massive
>>239380894 invisible spider spawners. They also die permanently as in they don't respawn if you use the tree
>>23930548>>23931259I started recently as well, too many useless weapons is definitely a problem. This is definitely the kind of game where part of the appeal is using as many different weapons and equipment as possible.Still, the game is a lot of fun regardless. The atmosphere is great, customization is nice, and the guns that are usable are all wonderful. The game is well worth the time and money. I'd love to see a game with this kind of gameplay and combat but with more characters and plot to get attached to
For Shara’s subquest, the pearl count is cumulative, right? I don’t have to somehow give her 30 pearls all at once.
>>239381184? I only recall 3, the one in the first built up bit, the one past the tentacle field, and the one in the courtyard. But yeah, I am glad they don't respawn. Fuck those swarms so hard.
>>23938194the first one was on the lower passage on the very first building you enter in accumulation zone. second is tucked inside a garage on the right side of the giant open field where you get the shotgun and a nymph boss fight. Third is right next to the fairy circle and the fourth is inside the building that's also close to the fair circle area.
>>23938166Correct. You can farm them from the tall bitches by the way.
>>23938263So I’ve heard, but these drop rates are atrocious. I maxed out my Disassembly level and even after clearing out that one room in the Ark five times, all I’ve gotten is a single Graphite Husk.
>>23937676She is not going to take the betrayal well.
>>23938297You're unironically better off doing a new loop and just picking up the Pearls from placed locations/chests that respawn every new game loop rather than farming the Ark for pearls.You're gonna need at least 3 runs to 100% the game anyway. Just finish up Shara's quest on a succeeding loop. That's how I did it, and how a lot of other anons did it back when the game came out and had frequent threads on /v/.With a proper loadout and upgrades, the early to mid game goes so much faster. Not to mention already knowing where to go and having more shortcuts available thanks to your better Frame options. See pic related.
So in your first playthrough, did you guys hug mommy and forgive her or did you finish her off and become the new overlord of Hod
>>23938640Why did she try to kill us again?
>>23938732because you absorbed the left eye. For some reason you can't get the option to just rip it off and give to nehma.
>>23938732Her other eye fused to (You) when you acquire it. Said eye holds a fair bit of her admin privileges. Evidently, Nehma doesn't like competition. The general implication here being that the systems of Hod also designated (You) as a viable replacement or successor to Nehma. Though even if you didn't inadvertently hijack some of her admin privileges, I feel like she would've just treated (You) like a disposable doll that she'll trash once thoroughly used.The tragedy here is that from the embrace option during the ending, one can infer that the player Seedling really only wanted headpats, love and affection from mommy. She probably would've been an obedient murderhobo if mommy at least valued and acknowledged her existence. And this seems to be the characterization Orphans is going with for Nanakino. But no, Nehma had to be a petty megalomaniac bitch that just couldn't be proud of or affectionate with her "daughter".
>>23938781There's a little extra dialogue if you talk to the mechsmith twins before the fight that more or less confirms it.
How the fuck would I have known there was a gun tucked in that area.Well I'm finally done with that achievement
>>23937458Brutal.
>>23939269There's a lot of guns in this game that are gimmicky shit.That is one of them
>>23939269Where is this? I'm sure I've got the achievement but this doesn't look like a recognizable location. I thought this was the training range, but is that just extreme potato mode?
>>23941218If anon is talking about a "How the fuck was I supposed to find it normally" equipment, it's probably that one where you have to do some platforming and go behind(?) the elevator in one of the spots either in the Fault, or the Water Treatment facility.
>>23941218When your on the elevator heading up to the water treatment level there's an opening infront of you just after you leave the fault. It's the roofing structure of the chamber you just left, the gun is in a chest across the beams. Find it then jump down.
actually this gun's placement is even worse. Literally hidden by optical illusions.I actually like this gun enough to be my main
>>23941937Anon where is that gun. I need a kriss vector looking gun and the shotgun looking kriss i have is ass compared to starter ar.
>>23942517water treatment area. First room where you meet the shielded beam spamming drone. Just hug the walls of the room till you find a hidden corridor>>23935707>plamateait's gonna suck
