I just finished fight knight, fuck all of you for not telling me how fucking great this game is.Fun as fuck, unique game and one of the coolest fucking final acts I've seen in any game purely from a gameplay perspective not even considering the story.
>>722644721I dropped the game soon after getting to the swamp level due to dwindling interest. What did you like about it? Is it worth giving it another look?
L cringe bozo
I've recommended it in several threads over the years, feel like I see a lot of others do as well. Maybe one of the best indie action adventure games, immensely charming.
>>722644851it is 100% worth a look, the swamp was one of the levels I liked the least, the next one is a bith of a brain buster though. The fun shit you get and the things the game pulls are genuinely worth coming back for.
>>722645315charming is the perfect way to describe it, it's just such a fun little game. there is effort put into a lot off little details like unique portraits for every armor you get even though you barely see them, armor pieces being just different enough where they don't break the flow but are fun to swap around.
It was talked about a lot but nobody actually cares about the game they just care about psychic bird rape
>>722644721I found it much too hard, and the lack of difficulty options prompted me to refund it.I do not regret that decision.
>>722644721So how many levels are there after hot/cold area? The game itself is not too long, but walking around the levels somehow feels the opposite
THE BIRDS MASON
>>722646468The hot/cold area is one level and yeah that one is a bit too long.>>722645897>>722646539qrd? I don't remember raping any birds in the game
>>722646609One of the people working at the publisher for the game is a known groomer (/agdg/ memes about her but shes a woman so its ok), groomed the developer then said he hypnotised everyone in her life to like him and her to have sex with him, she sent psychic birds to terrorise him but he killed them and now their ghosts haunt her (yes this is true)
>>722647521Jesus fucking christ LOL
>>722644721I told you it was kino the entire time, why didn't you listen?
>>722647881I'm sorry anon... I was too late...
>>722645491>The fun shit you getYeah I remember quite liking the outfits you could find, like the cowboy one. The grid-based gameplay was fun too, if a bit disorienting at first. Thanks for the rec anon, will give it another try.
>>722646609>>722647521yeah there's a really wild story surrounding the development of this game and it basically didn't get any proper coverage because journos immediately sided with the bitch who is clearly full-on mentally ill bonkers. I feel bad for the dev because it's a fun game.
>>722647521>grooming an adult
>>722649360God that fucking sucks, journos ruin another thing once again. Poor devanon I hope he is not discouraged and got good success.
>>722650385>hey anon if you fuck me i'll get you a better publishing deal ;) She did it to multiple devs
Didn't Dangen Entertainment tried to sabotage this project (like many others)?
>>722651679>Dangen Entertainmentwhat the fuck do they get out of doing shit like that?
>>722644721
>>722651828Dungeon crawler game but you are a knight that only punches shit. You get to unlock special moves and new armors that give you powers as you go along. The fighting system pretty cool, It's very active and a unique ass game.
>>722650621It wasn't just the journos, her fucking psychotic friend group tweeted/emailed literally any youtuber that had shown interest in the game with copypasta bullshit about how the dev had raped her, and none of them covered the game because of it. There were several big names that were interested in it IIRC. Game probably would've been 50x as big.
>>722650901That's still not grooming in the slightest.
>>722644721now go for NG+and you saved all the nighwatchmen, right?
Can you marry June yet?
>>722646609>The hot/cold area is one level and yeah that one is a bit too long.I never felt it outstayed its welcome, especially compared to the junkyard swamp, but the theme of hockey vs. football spoke to me personally, so I might be biased.
>>722651679Yes. Dangen's fuckery is almost certainly a significant contributor to why the dev's ex went mental in the first place.
I liked it, but dropped it because the save system was a pain
>>722644721Behold: one of the few games that's actually worse due to having random encounters
I got pretty far in but got stuck. Anyone got a guide?
>>722644721I really liked the first playthough, still look back on it fondly, but NG+ was just way too much in terms of difficulty, and I couldn't imagine re-doing all the puzzles while having to deal with bullshit hard fights
>>722644721>fuck all of you for not telling me how fucking great this game isMaybe you should try having your own thoughts for once.
>>722653460Saved all the nightwatch, the reward is fucking awesome. 100% will go for NG+, it actually sounded like it was worth it.
I had a lot of trouble during the last couple fight segments but it's really cool. I know there is content for NG+ing but I moved on after one lap.Hope the next game Boensaw makes does well.
>11 hours>finishedGrim what passes for games in this day and age...
>>722655414>fewmany*
>>722655882There is still NG+ content and it is a cheap as fuck game
>>722644721I've told people before that it's great, you just weren't listeningNow, May or June?
>>722655882The golden standard for game length used to be like 12-15 hours. Not everything needs to be some 80 hour epic where you're doing samey sidequests while riding a horse through an empty countryside 80% of the time.
>>722655882I would argue that any game that manages to leave it's player impressed in the short amount of time they played has succeeded in its goal of providing entertainment. It might even be harder to accomplish that when you aim for a shorter playtime to finish than a "standard" gamelength experience, depending on genre of course.
>>722646609>qrd?The dev for the game had from what I can tell a genuinely psychotic girlfriend while developing the game, and she tried to sink it when it was about to release after leaving the dev. Around two months out from release of Fightknight the ex-gf releases a whole bunch of shit accusing the dev of a litany list of things such as SA, having weird fetishes(?) and being just not a good dude. The dev retorts by posting proof of her being fucking crazy during their relationship (this is where the physic bird stuff comes from and the claims he hypnotized her) and that she was the actual abuser. All in all there's a lot of grey area with the accusations because I still believe the dev did at least a couple fucked up things, but the ex-gf is actually crazy and 90% of her accusations are either fluff or don't make sense.
>>722644721They did try to tell you, but inexplicable psychic manifestations of crows started attacking their minds when they attempted to.
My save got fucked at the swamp and I never picked it up again
It's pretty cool. The visuals make some of the fights a bit hard to read and I felt the potions that prevent random encounters for X steps became necessary for me to enjoy the game the longer it went on, but the main hook is neat and the game is clearly made with passion.
>>722644721You better play NG+ and ++ then cause the game is great and well worth the time.
Rate my drip
>>722644721counter argument: fuck you for having terminal shit tastethis meme gayme is boring as fuck
>>722661281i could never really gel with any of the different fists. I understand that some of them were probably really strong, especially the glitch one, but i only ever broke out the vampire set for some memes and then switched back to good ol normal spamming same side hooksAlso holy shit dodging is way stronger than parrying its not even funny, even if for no other reason than the same side dodge opens up the best DPS punch in the game.
>>722661439Thankfully all the fists are good and a lot of people like the standard ones. Nothing wrong with that. I just like to suck suck between punching.i am a ryona enjoyer
I got stuck on the rematch with the Prince in the hot/cold zone, could barely tell what the fuck he was doing since he has like 8 moves but only 4 different sprites which was kind of a recurring problem for a lot of the enemies in that area.
>>722661439The hell does the glitch punch even do, It just seemed to display stats.
>>722661220Oh hell yeah anon for sure, I fucking love this game
>>722662935Polygon Pugilist gives your fists 5 or so tiles of range, displays enemy stats, has specialties be an ever spinning wheel, and makes forward and backwards movement instant but turning take time to complete
I got this during the summer sale and dropped it like an hour in cause it felt so bad to control
>>722663053Oh thanks anon, that sounds pretty fun actually. I didn't wanna step out of my comfort zone with the slinggunner armor in the last zone and wanted to keep it for postgame if there was any, which thankfully there was.
This game gave me motion sickness, and I can play flight and driving sims on VR without issues. I really wanted to play it too :( it looks sick
