Help me get over the janky ass animations before I refund this shit.
TO THOSE WHO HAVE BEATEN THE GAMETHE POSTGAME ARG PROGRESS BAR IS NEARING COMPLETION:https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lNZPlNNwDdwIf you don't know what I'm talking about, check out the following video:https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=k3eDMWut3xgIf you've watched it until the end and are confused about the secret ending:The two graves are Kaufu's and Shennong's.We see the memories of Shuanshuan who is nearing the end of his lifespan.He's leaving behind the Mystic Nymph to a temple built to honor Yi.This temple is the same as discovered in the current age.
>>722344727This is Nine Sols? Thats is a very high effort ARG
>>722344848People assume it's a demo for the sequel that takes place in our time.It's been going on for quite a while and has quite an extensive story behind it.
>>722342572What animations specifically are you having trouble with?
>>722342572I told you it was overhyped chinkslop, but you still bought it anyway like a little retard
>parryslopRefund immediately.
Eigong is a better final boss than anything FROM or Team Cherry has made
>>722342572That's not a complaint I've ever heard about Nine Sols.
I'm stuck on Lady Ethereal...I'm so retarded...
>>722345374+0.1 social credit
>>722345463You're not, she just one of two filters in the game.Just keep going at it; you've got this.
>>722345135All of them? Falling from heights is just a static image, the boar that takes the flower has a leg that doesn't move, the first enemy is a worm with the ugliest attack animation I have ever seen etc.
>>722345463Use charged attacks to stun the real one and get rid of clonesShes a pretty big difficulty spike but feels good one you've beaten her
>>722345521but this is a tawainese game, retard-san
>>722345603Seems like a faggoty complaint desu
>>722345646i know what I fucking said
Is this game secretly a chud game or something? What's its deal
>>722345603You have autism. Sorry to break the news
>>722346185Define chud game for the class
>>722346307Hey! Don't pool me together with that faggot.
>>722346185It's a cat game. People like cats.
so Yi and Heng were totally banging, right?
>>722342572are there any ass animations?
>>722346764Yi is a truecel. Don't besmirch his name.
>>722346764They weren't, no matter how much you might delude yourself into thinking they were.Fuxi and Nuwa were absolutely fucking, though.
>>722346864Did Fuxi's dick get bigger as he got more diseased?
why did they make charged attacks so broken and retarded in this game
The game isn't good bro just drop it, the only reason people talk about it is because there is a Taiwanese guy obsessed with the it that has an inferiority complex over Chinese people
>>722342572Nine Sols is a brilliant game that everynyan should play, Don't be a fagooot https://youtu.be/HR4MM2rFd98
>>722346853>dismembers and tortures the extremely sexy woman doesnt kill anyone elseyep, truecel
>>722345753ugly catugly artstyle
>>722344727Update: we'll have to wait until the 7th.Small indie studio, please understand.
>>722345374>Eigong is a better final boss than anything FROMI dunno, Sword Saint Isshin is very very good>Team CherryYeah easily
>>722348829Eigong is one of the best boss ever created. Ishin is great but wont make you piss yoiur blood like Ei
Are their other games good? I know they are horror games.
>>722348953I don't think difficulty is automatically conductive to good boss design all the time, but that's valid if she is like that for you.
>>722349116Yeah, they're pretty good.
>>722348829True, I was thinking more along Souls/ER gamesEigong is prwctically 2d Isshin. I still think i like her fight more for the final phase music though - that shit gets you pumped
>>722349275its not just about the difficulty. Its the fact that winning this fight would make you feel like a good who can see things in slow motion
>>722349275NTA, but what makes Eigong a good boss isn't that she's difficult, it's that she forces you to master the game's mechanics.The entire fight is completely and utterly fair. Once your skills have grown enough for you to beat her, you will beat her consistently from then on.
>>722349553This. And once you master it, Eig would feel like a helpless kid to you. Same as everyboss and thats what makes this game one of the best
>>722347037Unironically one of the best spoiler free reviews for this game
>>722349553
>>722349914kek, literally my experience as well
>>722349948I had a melty deleted my saves uninstalled it and only came back months later. Solid 8/10 game.
>>722349914based as fuck. Same
>>722349809If not esl he would have 100k subs. Scripts are multi layered and kino
>>722345374>>722348829>i am overly impressed by parryslopreal chads know jiequan and lady ethereal >> eigong
>>722350881I had to check online how to parry Ethereal. But Eig stopped me in my track for 2 weeks.
>>722349914lmao
>>722350881I recently replayed the game and I think Lady Ethereal is very overrated, sure presentation-wise it's one of the cooler fights in the game, but mechanics-wise it's kinda uninteresting, you just dodge and attack.Eigong, Jiequan, Fuxi (second phase) and Ji (to a lesser extent since you're just dodging projectiles) are way more interesting because many of their attacks chain together in subtle ways that are really fun to take advantage of once you become a skilled player.
>>722342572Ther's a lot of human shota on cat sex at chapter 5, bear with it
>>722342572you are weak and your death will not be mourned
>>722345374I thoroughly enjoyed Karmelita, but yeah. Not a single boss in Silksong comes close to Eigong.
>>722346185Its got a bit of something for everyone>>722346764no, but they could have. fuxi and nuwa on the other hand
hold on a sec
>>722347037the bear puns were great
>>722349914Wu Wei
>>722349914This is what makes it brilliant. You relinquish the control and become one with the Tao. Stand in place and humiliate the bitch. I can't remember the last time I was happy for beating a boss.
>>722347037>dad humorkys
>>722346864
>>722346864They were just method acting.
>>722346936big enough to impale his sister at least
>>722342572>before I refund this shitit's slop. you don't need to get over anything other than realizing you got memed into playing some artfag FOTM garbage from last year.
>>722355514This. Make sure you pre-order Battlefield 6™ instead!
I have to admit I had more fun with this than silksong
>>722344727was that an half life sfx
>>722349914It took me 3 hours to finally beat Eigong, but after that, I could beat her first try in the boss memorial, and I felt like I would soon be able to no hit her.And it is absolutely beautiful too, you barely even need to move other than sometimes jumping and she simply can't kill you anymore.As difficult as she is, no matter how fast her attacks are, and how she can change her attack patterns on the fly, at one point you will be able to react to all of her moves on the fly and act automaticaly, really like in a kung-fu movie once the protagonist locks-in.
>>722350881This. Eigong is fucking garbage compared to every previous boss, aside from maybe Kanghui. Godawful hitboxes on nearly every attack, far too much health, a boring boss theme, a boring arena and unintuitive bullshit attacks like her teleporting slashes in the third phase.
>>722346185It's Taiwanese so kinda
>>722349553Yep. As a contrast, Silksong's hardest boss is harder for me, but moreso due to it's visual clutter and chaos. I didn't get that rush of overcoming a challenge, just relief that I didn't have to deal with 5 flavors of damaging black thing at once anymore
>>722350881Jiequan is a very boring and easy fight, Lady Ethereal is good, but most of the important parts are parry slop too, so I don't get your point, you retarded inbred nigger the whole game is parryslop you retarded donkey with downs
>>722346185Incels are too retarded to make videogames
>>722357184Yeah I expected way more from Jiequan after all the buildup. It took me by surprise how Lady Ethereal was at least 10x harder than he was.This game has many difficult spikes and it felt like Jiequan was the final "beginner level" boss of the game.Not a bad fight at all but by the time you get to him you're probably already too skilled to struggle against him at all.
>>722357184>you retarded inbred nigger the whole game is parryslop you retarded donkey with downsother bosses have some cool other windows where parrying or doing the default canned answer against attacks (ex taichi kick vs green attacks) isnt actually the best possible choice, like maybe pulling off a fancy hitbox dodge lets you rack up more damage than you otherwise wouldeigong has 10x less of that because her hitboxes are a little abysmal and she breaks some rules (ex you cant UC her green attack, some of her parriable slashes hit you from behind) but shes disproportionally easy if you do nothing except the default answer against her every move
>>722357631>Yeah I expected way more from Jiequan after all the buildupdid you use the poison on him or something>you're probably already too skilled to struggle against him at all.this applies to every boss in the game, struggles are just personal occasional skill issues OR someone who isnt really used to playing many action games
>>722358375No I didn't use the poison. What does it do?But his only would be dangerous attack is the one that creates geysers if you don't UB parry it and the game really drill doing that parry into us after the first unwinnable fight against him.
I couldn't beat the final boss....
>>722342572I can't get over the shitty combat
I didnt ge to the point where i can parry eigongs phase 3 slashes consistently, i just got enough heals to out last it from perfecting phase 1 and 2...am i a scrub?
I liked this game but I have to pause when I realize you can stand still for most fights and just hit the button at the right timing, and that's almost enough to win it all. Parry is such a trivializing mechanic
>>722362889>am i a scrub?It took me like 8 hours to learn her moves.If I can do it, you can do it.
This is one of my "I want to like it but" games.>I hate games that are extremely action gameplay and mechanics-focused BUT which constantly shit dialogue and cutscenes at you every 5 mins. Just make an RPG instead>mechanics work for boss fights but moment to moment gameplay feels ass. The only thing they understood about Sekiro is parry, not relentless attack>art style is mostly ugly
>>722357289Go away, chinkbot
>le artstyle is uglyalright where is this coming from?
>>722345374i said that and i look like that
>>722356253>bullshit attacks like her teleporting slashes in the third phase.Literally some of her easiest ones to parry
>>722363641i wouldnt say any dev ""understood"" sekiros' parry when they do it in this exact same wayits almost just taking the 'press x to not take damage' part, but none of how it actually sort of feels like a swordfight, the enemy back-and-forth clashes with you, etcif anything they did understand the part about relentless attacking because they just made most basic attacks have almost zero commital and super fast recovery
>>722367085You mean the hardest, since they have no tell whatsoever and come from completely random angles, with a delay before they actually register for some reason as well. There's nothing intuitive about Eigong's third phase; it's just incoherent spam.
>>722367085>its unreactable bullshit the first time you see it so you may or may not lose unfairly>every time afterwards, its a total joke because you just press RMB twicethats just a boring way to make enemy attacks
>>722367534>since they have no tell whatsoeverShe literally teleports away. She disappears from the screen.After that it's just a matter of learning the timings.>and come from completely random anglesOnly direction matters when it comes to parrying.
>>722367534>no tell whatsoever and come from completely random anglesAnon your parry is omnidirectional when in the air
>>722367586>RMBIf i played this woth kbm i'd slit my wrists
>>722367829Skill issue, I did it on standard mode
>>722367726There are no timings. You just mash parry and hope you only take internal damage, because the attack has inane hitboxes.>>722367751Her teleport takes two frames, so you have about a millisecond to predict when she's going to teleport (which is impossible, since Eigong's attacks are all decided by RNG), and then you have to hope you get juggled long enough not to get instantly caught by the follow-up grab attack when you land or yet another wave of teleport spam.
>>722368792>and then you have to hope you get juggled long enough not to get instantly caught by the follow-up grab attack when you land or yet another wave of teleport spam.Anon i think you might be shitYou have plenty of time between her white flash and her coming across the screen to time your parry, and if you're in the air when she starts her grab you can easily air-parry off her for free internal damage>t. Beat her hitless multiple times
>>722368792You shouldn't ever be caught by anything after her teleport slashes.Because you are taken to the air by her attacks, you still have ALL of your air actions ready for use.
>>722369067No you don't. The attosecond the white flash appears on screen, it has a lingering damage hitbox. You literally have to predict the teleport in advance every time; it can't be reactively dodged. Depending on where you're juggled, you might be too low to parry the grab with the Tai-Chi Kick too.>>722369303Except you don't, because you can't remain airborne forever, and because Eigong has ridiculous input reading that will instantly execute the grab if it detects you're close to the ground following a jump.
>>722369658Bro please stop, you're acting as if you're talking to people who HADN'T beaten Eigong's ass multiple times...
>>722369658If this threads still up when im done waging I'll post a vid of me reacting to the attack with perfect parries and see how you cope with it
>>722344727Where are they going with all this? The major thing in getting from this is that solarian tech in the wrong hands is a very scary thing and that seems like the direction a new game would go in focusing on the horror aspect.A full game of the Ethereal mind fuck
>>722370783oh noooo i don't wanna get trapped in Lady E's naked hotspring dream paradise it'd be soooo scary
>>722370954The scary part is that she’s futa
>>722371053Anon please, you got me scared stiff here
>>722369658https://litter.catbox.moe/9m7719dk9qa8ako0.mp4You may mail your apology to:1600 Pennsylvania Ave NW, Washington, DC 20500
>>722345374Yea, no shit. I'd even go as far as No boss from Silksong even came close to quality or challenge that nine sols bosses offered. Karmelita was kind of close.
>>722369658The reason why Eigong is consistently beatable even without taking a single hit is because her attacks, despite being used in random strings, are all completely reactable during their start-up.All of them are very distinct and you can and should always react to them accordingly, because that is precisely how you beat her instead of memorizing patterns and timings.
>>722371946You absolutely need to memorize her patterns and timings to beat her, I'm not sure what you are talking about. Honestly, I think her normal sword strikes in phase 1 are the most egregious, since the actual attacks are instant and it's pretty fast, you really just need to memorize the parry timings in order to block everything. That move specifically has a variation where sometimes she continues attacking quite quickly, but other times she'll back up, pause, then attack. The only way to get through that is to just parry like she'll continue attacking, and your parry will be ready by her next attack if she backs up instead.
>>722342572>janky ass animationsLmao what
>>722345603Based autistic fag
>>722364263Autistics. My guess is that there's some shitty limb work that looks like something out of a flash game (Don't know the term, I'm not a faggot artist) and that breaks their mind. Even tho most of the art is lvdokino
>>722374359The only bits I can think of is the jank animation on the dangkang boar and shaunshuan at the start of the game. And some of Fuxi's animation
>>722344727That was fast. I swear it was like 15% when I checked 2 days ago
>>722345136Imagine admitting to being a filtered faggot
>>722347037is he rhyming on purpose?
>>722347037>Yi is one of the most captivating characters everis this true? why? seems like exaggeration
>>722377073Fuzzy little edgelord with some depth to him. "Ever" is a stretch but he's a standout in video games.
Plum Wine
>>722342572Will people think I'm a furry if I play this? I'm a bit interested but that's holding me back.
>ARG Progress is done>Please wait until the 7thNiggers.
>>722349914I like to say that bosses in Nine Sols feel like studying for an exam rather than fighting for your life. There is little emergent gameplay during the fights, most boss attacks are very strictly defined and executed, and once you memorize them - it's hard to be bad at them. But therein lies the problem, you don't really adapt to fights or react to your surroundings, you just study the pattern until you can consistently "answer" it.Due to the generally low IQ of normalfags they can't really follow this continuity of their own brains. They get upset at how the game halts their pace during the first attempts at the boss but then once the dopamine hits from winning dozens of attempts later - they just can't comprehend why they couldn't do this the first time or why they were frustrated in the first place.
>>722344727So is the implication that we're all test subjects/volunteers providing "processing power" to it? How does that even work, do we have some kind of brain fuel lol
>>722380526Calling it - Project Cauldron 2.0. The ARG is just an abstraction of all the math puzzles you're doing as a brain in a jar.
>>722380575i like how they basically made this comic the premise for a game lol
>>722346864Would Heng like humans?
>>722380815Yes.Yi would've had to watch his sister getting an ape train ran on her next to Goumang.
>>722381307bejita bro, btw
>>722380815Yes, but her heart is for bisun
>>722354309yeah, sure
