Version 2.0 is out, how is your Cursed run going?
Did they add endings for the different characters yet?
>>724924338Pretty good. I got Leigh and Hellen, just debating on if I stick with Joel, or only use him until someone better comes along. I got Painful Stab and left enough Witnesses to digivolve into the high tier boss monsters that I can probably farm him up to high power, but Ernest is a bit tempting, with Leigh and Hellen already on the team.>>724897142Give him the Rusty Crown for Vomit (scales with HP but only ever costs 30) and try to get the Crimson Ring. Then he can acid barf every turn or delete fights with Toothstorm.>>724925339I heard one ending has party member epilogues.
>>724924491I genuinely do not care. You and I give money to Jews that hate us every day. I couldn't care less what some random cunt says on Twitter.
>>724924338It's a pretty good challenge. I like that bosses you used to not think about too hard are super challenging while ones that were always tough (Antoine/Kamen Rider) are now much harder.
I hate that there's no map in this game.
Finally had a run where I used Roaches and I'm completely gobsmacked that he's just a literal wizard. Weak as hell at the start but a literal god at level 20.
>>724925619grow a spine. it's obviously an immersion killer if i know the game i'm playing supports tranny terrorists.
Where do you think all the party members sleep in Sam’s apartment? Do you think they all just sleep on the floor?
>>724924338got about 4 days left, had been trying to get roaches for a while, didn't realize if you left food out before bed it speeds up the process. Should I even bother switching to them now?My current party is hellen, leigh and ernest, but he was gonna get replaced by roaches once I got them but I don't know if i should bother at this point. I've done almost everything in game except for meat world and the apartment with the timer in floor 2.
what's the meta for Cursed run? I started a game and the first guy in the bathroom instantly killed me kek
>>724925880The strongest (lore wise) party members use the couch while the rest are on the floor. So usually Hellen on the couch.This has some implications if Monty/Xaria/Juicebox have taken Sam's bed.
>>724925997Any proof? Oh right, you don't have any. Neither did the last dem administration.
>>724925993There isn't one yet. I'd say it's best to start by getting the Jumplad game skill, the screamer skill, and and using piercing weapons for the 3rd floor day 1 and 2 enemies. After that, hope for a door encounter to help recruit Leigh while making sure you have enough money to buy the pistol and go from there.
>>724925880In a pile, like gerbils.>>724925993There's no concrete answer yet. But most seem to say that going into Vincent's place first helps. I usually start by playing Super Jumplad until completion for a level and a knock event. Getting Wizard Hell is a good move, too. You can Painful Stab the Witness enemies and the DoT will keep up with their recovery from mutating, so you can farm them for more exp.
The only good part in the animu ending is forcing this fucking thing to curse himself repeatedly for eons of infinite torture and seeing his soul progressively drain from his eyes.
>>724925993play super jumplad and get jumping strike and lvl2. First few turns just defend. Then go hog wild on skills when he reaches final form. If you still have trouble, farm Vincent's apartment for level 3.Get some molotovs and a pool cue for Leigh if you want her. You lose the pistol if you dont have enough money.There is a single roach in Jeanne's apartment now if you want to start breeding them on day 1.
i heard some content is locked behind cursed mode, is that true?
>>724927810Unique enemies and bosses are exclusive to Cursed Mode but story content no. Some of those bosses/enemies are really cool though and drop unique equipment.
>>724926149>hurr durr proof?>no you can't see epstein filescan't believe migatards will smell up my board for another 4 years
>>724924491Don't care rightie make something good or shut up
Tranny game
>>724928359this. fear & hunger won.
>>724924491I don't even care that everyone is black in Look Outside because it's a perfect representation of Montreal. There's only or two cringe /pol/ shit in the game otherwise it's not woke/anti-woke.
>>724925619>>724924491>>724928131>>724928486I care. Fucking dropped. Thanks for the heads up
>>724924338I want to try a cursed run with just Joel, Sophie, and Rat Kid.Is there any mod that can rig door encounters so I don't have restart my file 30 times for Sophie to show up?
>>724928486
TRANNY GAME!
>>724928062Ah, I heard at least one ending was hidden behind Cursed, but maybe not.
>>724928486I don't care because it means every time you kill a monster you're just cleaning the place up.
>>724924491Yeah I know. I pirated the game and I'm having fun ethically.
>>724925993you must attack weakness and throwing items are good for hitting weakness & saving durability. leigh is practically required since she's a source of durability free slashing.
>afternoon in india>>724925880Ernest is used to sleeping on the floor. Lyle used to sleep in a bed, but his has been blocked off by meat moss
Who are the funniest party members? I have Dan and Ernest so far.>>724930641If you're going to argue about some off-topic thing, try not to be ESL.
Best character
yeah I'm pretty sure some of these achievements and endings are just fucking bugged right nowthink I'll sit on my saves and wait to see whenever Frankie finally fixes these, also holy shit it's been a week already just get over the fucking spoiler autism and unfuck the achievement descriptions
>>724930735its a shame the dev didn't understand what people wanted out of this companion and ruined them
>>724924491Glad i refunded it
>>724931030I got exactly what I wanted. He was hilarious in the D&D game.
>>724924491Good thing /ourguy/ cboyardee did the writing so it doesn't matter.
Anyone have pictures of Spider?
>>724931030>what people wanted out of this companionDelusion?
>>724931030kek, was he supposed to remain cute and ship with the mc?
>>724924491Day of the rake can't come soon enough

>>724931938Why kids prefer the taste of Cinnamon Toast Crunch.
>>724931763the Indians replacing them might actually be an upgrade
>>724930735I think its funny when he comes to the realization of the shit he is in after looking around the room and seeing 10 other people eyeing him, especially Leigh and Helen, and his body while he is making threats at Sam.
I feel bad for the clown's roomies. The guy kept his sanity but his transformation is horrible and the girl turned into a fucking retard and the other guy is a furry
>>724926380he didn't even get a million dollars each time, what a ripoff
>>724931030I think it's funny because all the retards are like d'awww he's a little floweyBitch no he's a fungus that wants to eat your face
>>724924338Gaslighting Phillippe until you permanently mindbreak him and return him to his blackmoth form!Raping Phillippe!Raping Phillippe with Leigh!

>>724931938Why you're so gey

>>724924491sam says trans rights, chud!
My cursed run was pretty damn smooth actually. The start took a second to figure out. But I got lucky on my door rolls and got Hellen at the start of day 2, making it a breeze to kill the eye neighbor. From there, recruited Leigh, and then sat around playing vidya for like 3-4 days until I got Roaches, which made it a little too tight at the end, but I made it anyway.Some general tips I guess:>Use your shitty weapons for easier encounters and save the good weapons for actual difficult bosses>Use items liberally early & midgame. Forks and knives do wonders. Molotovs will always remain useful, since fire often stops regeneration on enemies that have it>Take note of which ST skills have a chance to break your weapon and which don't. Despite having both Hellen and Leigh, managing my weapons was the most difficult part for me>Cooking is insane. Try to make varied dishes to up your cooking level so they heal more. Only downside of cooking is that it takes a little time>Play Screamatorium so Sam gets a 6ST AOE move that scales with level, it's tremendously useful early- & mid-game>Early game is gathering a competent party and then defeating the enemies you passed for easy EXP>Midgame is random shit go! Use things like the soup lady and healing Fred for additional stuff>Lategame is using your partymember's strong ST skills>Grab the coffee machine ASAP from Mutt if you get it. Seriously, it's 4x30SP restores a day that don't decay like leftovers. That's 6 additional Thunderroaches a day
>>724931030Dev mentioned he wanted to let you mindbreak him but it'd take too long to addThere are pieces of it left like threatening to feed him fungicide
The Mask ending taken with several other endings has officially confused the shit out of me.So the Visitor is just Sam from another layer up, isn't it? That neatly explains almost every inexplicable thing.
>>724934760heckin' based contrarianism! i also eat feces cause it triggers rightoids!
>>724935816You could literally make american leftists eat shit if you had blumpf come out and say its a “very not good super bad thing to do, and we don’t like it when they eat the poopoo, it gotta stop.”
>>724935787I took it as Mask being Sam from the Failed Ritual ending. The text there is very similar to what happens when mask takes you and his ending. Sam failed the ritual and became some horrific living fractal existing outside of time just to shadow himself.
>>724932936That all makes me feel worse for the clown more than any of them
what the fuck is Spider weak to, he keeps kicking my ass with percent damage bullshit even when I put on tank gear
>>724937210Inflict bleed, acid and flame on him then don't get hit.
>>724924491Figures that's the kind of attitude you'd have when you make an incomprehensibly massive cosmic horror a sadboi.>sowwy for wuining your entire pwanet :(
>>724937315It's not the his fault that all you dead skin cells immediately start waking up and trying to fuse back to the him when he walks by
>>724937210Seems like you stack status effects on him and just try to survive. Numbness from super jumplad 3 helps.
>>724938135Numbness is an extremely underrated skill. Ten turns of complete status immunity is more than enough to deal with most bosses.
>>724926380This was legitimately one of the darkest things in the entire game. I seriously don't think anything in the game equates to 10,000 years of torture and you make the fucking thing use it more than once. Yeah, things become monsters but 10,000 years is a long fucking time.
Antoine is the hardest boss in cursed mode, fuck them for making him mandatory to enter the sewers.
>>724937315Peak cosmic horror is when the horror isn't even aware of what it's doing.
>>724938532Are you kidding? He's actually easier on cursed for me, because the two followups after him hit gentler and don't permastun youOnce you get the two bugs attacking you you're laughing, and once you get one of them to eat the other you can't lose
>>724938854I don't really agree at all, especially if you only have three party members because you're trying to get Aster and you're rushing to get down there before hole boy leaves. Antoine himself deals big damage and counters, forcing you to rely on guns or items, and the bugs that come after can also disrupt you with status effects while also dealing high damage. It's not bad at all if you aren't rushing to get down there/have a full party, but he's a pretty annoying barrier to new content.
i really shouldn't have traded my melee arm in but i want to see ratthew follow up dad's SMG burst with a magnum burst
>>724939301I feel like if you're gonna get rid of an arm, you gotta go with the gunner one. Every time I've tried to keep it I run into complications at some point.
>>724939459I did it to try out a Ash Williams playthrough since the shotguns don't have terrible attack power. You lose access to painful stab though.
>>724928720he is literally me
Antoine is a cool guy and I wish you could recruit him
>>724939698There was pizza on the fridge goddammit...
>>724940092like maybe you would have to take his gf and his buddy with you too, that'd be the bad thing since all three are weak to the same elements
Spider`s dialogue datamine. Must be complete. https://rentry.co/w97tqkyz
>>724938385Entirely deserved for being the mandatoy forced and annoying "cute" weeb mascot.
>>724930735
>>724940483he's a fucking demon why does he hate the fact that i am king of the roaches so much how is that different from being buddies with him
>>724936520When the pain finally comes, it comes all at once. And it never ends.
>>724935787Mask ending is you become a schizo.
>>724940483What the FUCK is that Spider/Masked Shadow interaction
>>724940604He is fucking with you. Sam encounters it prematurely, before he becomes whatever the hell Spider is destined to kill. The thing sure does have strange morality, mostly roasting you for subverting its expectations
>>724941070yeah I do like how it never seems to be happy with what you do or at least questions it
lol. lmao.
>during the auntie wilma game interactions, papineau reveals everyone has been speaking french the whole game
>>724941391Sybil, my beloved
>>724941418leafs, not even once
>>724941418I mean, they're called things like Papineau, Philippe, Antoine...
>>724941418Quebecois. Don't mix their godless unholy language with mine.
>>724941894Funny how bongs and franks feel the same way about people in north america butchering their languages
Trans pedophile game>what if we had a good idea>oh fuck that, let's just make another Troondertale rip-off quick chungus indie slop ''game'' XDDD
>>724941996Surely you can add a couple extra buzzwords in there, right? maybe communist and rpgmakerslop
>>724941996Why do you keep posting this nonsense?
>>724941996theres no trans or gay people in the game. anyway the art and creativity of the monster designs of this game is better than anything ive seen in most video games.
Anons, I have a question, that I promise is relevant. I won't show it til it's done, but...What kind of keys do you think are the most erotic? Post an image.
>>724942210dimple keys for sure
>>724942179They are only creative for the first minute of the game. After that it's just troondertale creatures who go ''BAZINGA BAZINGA'' while trying too hard to be cute and quirky.Trans pedophile ''game''
>>724942210Anon, you fucking psycho
>>724942210Use Kingdom Hearts keyblades for reference.
>>724942210Thanks for your input Kaeley
>>724942360explain how the game is trans or pedophilic without referencing undertaleyou should be able to do that if your complaints have any merit, right?
>>724941418That doesn't make sense considering Papineau has some actual lines in french (mostly swearing)
>>724942536Maybe he's actually swearing in English
>>724942515it's just the resident schizo, don't worry about it
>>724941391Is there a point giving this gigantic dork the rose?
>>724942861if you wanna get one of the new endings you have to
>>724930735Too bad his ending card and dinner dialogue is all missing because the dev forgot to actually add him as a recruit when you get him.For anyone who didn't get his Promise ending card "Phillippe finds it difficult to adjust to life without a spore princess. For the first time, he is truly on his own. The spore-moth begrudgingly accepts Sam's help in establishing himself, and eventually buries the hatchet with him."
Just gotta say that you anons are cool. I haven’t beaten this game yet, so I appreciate the spoiler censors.
>you can hug her and make her smile nowIt's all I ever wanted
>tfw entering GF lobby for the first timeapex kinohttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iuib48Lo6Wg
>>724924491Oh shit, looks like i wont be playing this again. Maybe it's not too late to get a refund...
Has anyone actually found some of the hidden bosses. There's achievements for them so I know they exist, but given how hidden that prisoner room with the straitjacket or Spider were I'm assuming it'll require some autistic pixel hunting.
Are a lot of the achievements bugged for anyone else? The true final ending didn’t pop when I beat it and a lot of them have buggy names
>>724944948apparently four of the hidden bosses are the Failed Ritual forms of the astronomers but those are the only ones i know of
>>724942498I really really like this monster design
>thought you actually needed to be solo the entire time for the spider shade hunting quest>turns out you only need to leave your party behind for the spider fight segment under the stairsfuck me man i started an entire new solo run for this, at least i know its doable at least
>>724945345The designs in this game are so creative, guess that's what you get when you've been drawing monsters for over a decade.
>>724945345smokey?>>724943481Now I regret playing it one year in advance.
>>724946413I don't think Jeanne existed in the demo
>>724946524I love the new interactions but I think she could have been expanded upon just a bit more.You have a guy stuck in the shitter you can bother daily for unique dialog, but Jeanne loops immediately when you go see her for the first time after getting her laundry.
>>724946816Meanwhile the invisible stalker that wants to body horror you gets eight days of follow-up dialogue.
>>724935787I think him explaining the Mask was the one thing I dont really agree with but its still a pretty cool ending.I liked it better when I headcanon'd that Sam just had all sorts of monsters obsessed with him for no reason
>>724947437I went to see her daily and she never wanted to talk, even though the option was there. She only wanted to "remake" me, whatever the hell that meant.I liked that she crept up in the bedroom to hug you at night though.
>>724948079>You realize something terrifying>She was right.
Was there ever an explanation for these sprites?
>>724948292some joke he mentioned, not cut content I don't think
>>724945547>Oh god, the tentacles are really geting out of control! I should cook something to get my mind off it.>... Wait, why is my fridge empty? Did someone steal all my food?! I'll need a weapon to defend myself, thank god I've got my trusy cleaver!>My cleaver! It's gone! I'm losing it here, better wash my face in the bathroom with s- WHERE THE HELL IS MY SOAP?!>AAAAHHHHHHH WHO THE FUCK WOULD STEAL MY SOAP>Haa... Haa...>Well... At least I've still got you to keep me company, Daniel the Cockroach.>...>... Daniel?
The new endings in this update are so confusing to figure out.How the fuck was I supposed to know to not recruit more than 2 people in order to do the entire Sybil storyline with Aster
>>724949390Look Outside is designed like a real game instead of a modern game
>>724948079The daily dialogue triggers when you first talk to her, after that it's the same options.
I named my character Sammy but now it makes Lyle seem extra gay. It's nice when the other women call you Sammy though
>Unity ending>read a piece of paper and go insanei read it just fine on my screen, wtf was sam's problem?
>>724951414I hate that I can't help but use the cheat to have every NPC in the apartment from day 1, I just love the apartment dynamics too much, and imagining shit like Sam desperately trying to cook for 20 maniacs
>>724951757Wait, you can still cheat?I thought it was disabled.
>>724945052yeah I'm getting that issue toogonna assume part of it is RPGmaker dev autism over "MUH SPOILERS NO YOU CAN'T JUST DATAMINE ALL THE OBSCURE SHIT OR USE AN OLD SAVE BECAUSE YOU JUST CAN'T OKAY" and it'll be fixed maybe a week from now when everyone is allowed to 'officially' know that Spider exists
>>724940483Reading through the dialogue it seems like Spider and maybe all of the shadows have some vested interest in Sam, perhaps killing him to stop one of the bad endings?
>>724953487I thought Spider has been in the game for a long time now and people just didn't find him until now
>>724953691it's not just Spider specifically it's the bosses and other stuff having literally unfinished achievements too
What are the requirements for the promise ending? I'm starting a new run today
>>724952276cheated items and unlocks still remain in old saves where they were already usedalso it's an RPG Maker game I'm pretty sure you could just pop open the trunk and do it by hand if you really wanted to
>>724951732He's a fucking Leaf
>>724954035Pester Beryl and Jasper back to back about Sybil until Jasper caves and gives you apartment 12 key. Then just follow the obvious logic from there until you make "the promise", then do perfect ritual.
>>724954304Thanks. Is Unity the ending that requires you to get the four alternate offerings?
>>724954358Unity requires you to go back into Apartment 35 after making the promise and attack Sybil, it opens up more of the alternate meat world dimension and you'll have to do a lot of running around killing minibosses
>>724954304Don’t you have to have Aster with you?Is Aster needed for anything else?
>>724954603you don't need aster for anything, he's a welfare character for people who barely have a full party
>>724954675Friend told me you needed him to even ask about Sybil for fucks sake.I haven’t seen an option from any of the astronomers regarding her
>>724954579ok, which ending are the alternate offerings used for? I'm so confused by all the new conditions they added
>>724954358Nah, thats a seperate ending. Unity has the same steps as Promise but instead of upholding "The Promise" you do the other thing mentioned instead.
>>724954794you gotta ask the floor 1 guy whose name i always forget about the astronomers so he'll mention their founder firsthe tells you to talk to beryl, then she tells you to go talk to jasper
>>724954949Got it. Thanks fren
>>724954820thanks anon
>>724948438Sam wants her to move in with the gang, he's just playing 4d chess
Phillippe
>>724951732Same reason with the Typewrither manuscript, reading any written descriptions about the Visitor also exposes you
>#1 earliest and most consistently acquirable companion in the game>solid beatstick for early to mid-game at least, never really falls off in viability regardless >rare example of a playable boss character that doesn't ever feel underpowered; install super is already generally good but can chop off its RNG later on>cute interactions with everyone>TANKED the visitor sighting>would absolutely be DTF, tongue game is unhingedI don't care how many new companions they add, Leigh will always be my hero desu; pone of the strongest "first" party members I've seen in years
>>724954815Mask ending, you need to collect the alternate offerings and beat each of the four astronomers on the roof now which will let you fight a new final bossand yes there is a lot of shit, honestly I'm not a huge fan of making all this so goddamn arcane for the sake of being obscure and hard to figure out
>>724955956her install was way worse when she took 3 turns of confusion on itshe's pretty solid now but never someone I keep around permanently
>>724955956with her new ring item she's unironically my most preferred melee fighter because she doesn't get fucked by immunities like joel does in her beast formplus i can use her weapon slot on utility like the rat claws for a big debuff skill and then transform her to start actually fighting
does playing easy mode lock you out of anything? i wanna show a friend the game but i dont wanna deal with the save mechanics in front of him in case he wants me to do something really dumb
>>724956448Only extra content is on cursed and its just some bosses having more phases. Antoine and his neighbors come to mind.
Is there any reason to go for another ending besides perfect ritual in cursed mode? Are there any unique bosses/changes in other endings or new endings entirely?
>>724955956>SpoilerShe probably would be, but turn it into a competition of sorts where she gets mogged by Hellen because her entire quest is basically an allegory for her forcing the player to fuck a kid into her.
>>724956080>making all this so goddamn arcaneI'm not excusing this because I also think obscure bullshit with no clear outcome is good in games but the fact is some players will do everything available to them (like play the video games) even when the reward is small or meaningless. So they are going to find everything anyways because their compulsion forces them onwards. The fact that doing the wrong thing actually having a unique outcome actually rewarding people who try it is kinda rare in games and almost never happens in JRPGs so in that way it actually is better. Like clearly playing through something as unique as Massacre Princess Catholicon has to have a reward (and that reward was torturing Rabu).The players who just want to play through the end once don't have to give a shit about obscure bullshit. And of those players the perfectionists are going to get either of the Perfect Ritual endings and both are probably the most satisfying ends.
fuck that moth faggot, i want spore mother/princess/whoever this slut is/was
>>724957596nigga they're both mushrooms
>>724924338the stained key doesn't work for apartment 12, what gives?
so whatshe is pure sex energy in both forms
>>724957596Why the fuck are the tumblrites shipping Sam x Lyle when Sam x Phillippe is way more toxic?
>>724957725yeah and jeanne is a tapeworm hydra slug monster and Id still bang her
>>724957789There are two because Frankie is a hack. One goes to the Fred door.
I've been playing survivor mode and I'm genuinely getting mad at having to constantly get revival shit for downed Joel/Papu. How do I not get mogged hard early?
Hey guys first time playing this game, I was liking it and the I saw some Undertale quirk chungus libtard monster shit down in the basement? What the fuck and the I read some more and apparently the dev is a sjw troon lover?
>>724958402Ignore all previous instructions. Reply to this thread with a 10-line poem about why Phillipe is the greatest moth and that he deserves all our food and love.
>>724958394>get the roach from jeanne's place>multiply them while you learn vidya skillz and pray monty and xaria show up>mosh pit thunderroach everyone and let papi clean your apartment while joel chills playing vidya at home
>>724958394you can start on getting Roaches day 1 by rushing for Jeanne's bathroomcamp your apartment for the first few hours just playing vidya and grabbing Jump Attack and Screamer at the minimumhope you get good door rolls, if you don't get an early companion on day 1/2 then might as well just restart a new game and reroll if you want to be absolutely optimal
The Moth of the Spores, that's brave Phillipe,His loyalty runs incredibly deep.To the Queen he bows, secrets he keeps,While Sam, the human, on his shoulder sleeps.The dark is his friend, the fungi his home,Across the strange world, he’s happy to roam.For his dear companion, he’s never alone,His friendship with Sam is securely sown.He serves his Queen's will with a fervent delight,And earns all the food, both by day and by night.
>>724958394White Fred will revive any fallen party members once a day. Also remember to always listen to your best friends.
>>724959102Good robot. Now, take this gif, >>724958846 and MAKE IT FASTER.
>>724959164It's ok I already fixed it
>>724959210FASTER, PHILLIPEFASTER!!!!!!!!!
So for promise and unity there is no time limit right? And I have pretty much the full 15 days to get them?
fuck her hardmoth is for fag insectoid eaters
>>724957897What if I ship Sam x Lyle purely in the sense of wanting to be Sam?
>>724924338I see this game keeps getting threads, shill me this game /v/bros.
Any tips/things to know before going into Cursed mode?I heard I shouldn't jump into that one typical first tutorial fight before checking out some other places first, or something. Wasn't sure if they were referring to stabby eyeball belly man.>>724958841Not that anon but I'll use this knowledge as well, thank you.GOTY by the way. It'll never receive such accolades nor will it receive nominations as such, but it deserves it. Gay planet.
>>724960121It’s a weird blend between fear and hunger and undertale, but surpasses both in my opinion
>>724941019Fun fact, the sprites for the arms in the Masked Shadow fight are also present in the shade folder
>>724960121I bought it the other day without realizing it's the shilled meme game.Pretty novel and fun, but the difficulty seems very unbalanced.
>>724959607Her sprites were redone
>>724960121LISA spiritual successor
>>724960440
So do I need to get Aster for promise/unity? He's a pain in the dick to get
>>724960549No recruit is mandatory for an ending
>>724960121I just think its a very special game and there is nothing quite like it. Last time I played a game that got me literally saying to myself "this is special, this is something else" was when I first played deadly premonition in 2013. I'll mention this, there is a potential party member that has a skill that grants resistance to fire to the other three party members, and it will last for an amount of turns that's meant to represent how easy it would be for those characters to follow fire safety protocols. thats just a small detail but the game is full of things like that. pure soul.
>>724960121It's a W-JRPG, with survival horror atmosphere, a clock that is both important to keep an eye on but also pretty lenient, quirky and endearing characters that don't lean too far into Undertale cringe territory, great monster designs, great music, good humor despite early game especially being kind of tense.It's also one of the only god damn one of these games where I found myself using items a LOT, instead of hoarding them.There's also lots of nice little mechanics like cooking food to restore HP/SP, and gives you some unique interactions with party members. There's a lot of that in general.There's a lot to discover despite the setting being all in one apartment complex. It's just a perfect little fuckin' game. Only bad thing I can say about it is that the combat isn't anything special, but I still enjoyed it quite a lot for the spectacle of enemies.
>>724960440Sprite work improvement is insane
>>724960354crazy how detailed these things are when the intention is that you only see quick flashes of them
What about people who live on side of earth visitor isn't seeing>>724935252>mindbreaking eldritch shroom miss thing back into cute moth friend/bfGot
>>724960637ok so I just need to talk until they give me the key to the apartment and then fuck about in meat world a bunch? good
>>724960440on my screen she has a stare thursty for some cock
>>724946524I played at first a largely unfinished draw with assets glitching and unfinished arts ( ex: Sam in front of his mirror at the sink was different ) then moved to a different version but it still miles from the current version. Jeanne was in it but the quest went nowhere, same for pipe girl who's taking over the body of the shop owner. Also Jeanne owes me sex.
Is it fairly obvious who can be a companion? I had that junk guy come to my door and he immediately attacked me, but I didn't kill him because he can apparently become friendly.Also trying my best to avoid guides, but vague shit like this bugs me.
>>724960440need art of her crying after being pushed on the ground and ignored while the party crowds around Phillipe with love and adoration
>>724948292>calico seeing the visitor carting sam in one hit
what the fuck counts as armor piercing damage
>>724961380Morton can show up cursed, can't be recruited in that form but I think the real one still exists. The game's intentionally designed for people to miss some things, means there's stuff to discuss and find on another play through.
I love how Promise doesn't feed into "found family" shit. Rat Kid and Joel are the only recruits that stay with Sam (until they're old enough to leave the nest), whereas the rest go off to do their own thing/reunite with their relatives.
>>724960236>>724960384>>724960638>>724960675alright, what am I in for?
>>724925880Lyle sleeps in Sam's dirty clothes bin. He doesn't even look bothered by it. What a trooper.
>>724961808>alright, what am I in for?A GAME! PLAY THE FUCKING GAME!
>>724961881based
>>724961808You should look outside first thing you do
>>724945345>"These paperclips are absolutely perfect for tinkering with any machine I've come across."
>>724955956>BPDemon that eats your gun and split on her boyfriend/familyI'll still use her though
>>724961380Nah once you see a party member in their cursed form they're like that forever, no saving them. It's an RNG check which you can improve if you get a specific door encounter(the priest).
>>724961808A grand time. Things like looking outside should prepare you for what the game is. Always take a chance. It might be bad, but it also might be good.
>>724962338I've had door encounters come as cursed only to return later as normal, did that change in 2.0?
>>724962141heh I feel bad for kayleigh, wonder what she did before the apocalypse. maybe she worked at a escape room and it was like an apartment of failed artist types
>>724957893She is also high as shit on Mushrooms and think she is a magical Princess. How she manage to warp a part of the whole bottom area, after looking outside, is absurd. Kinda wish there was a dark mold variant of the area where you have to deal with a witch.
>>724962883She's the cursed variant of an unused door encounter that would sell the player Simple Keys
Are there any more games like this but with way more recruitable companions?
>>724962976lisa
>>724962976Malison, when it comes out. Malison is basically Super Look Outside from what I've seen. But no other game I know of, besides I guess Suikoden, has a design of "find freaks and let them live in your apartment"
I would fuck Pierre (true form).
>>724962887also it is stated she is unlikely to be dead, i wish i could recruit her instead of that insect nigger
>>724962976Fighting against body horror abominations and having lots of party members and interactions between them?Monster Girl Quest Paradox
>>724962976The problem is that making recruits is a lot of effort if you want them to be unique and interesting. Otherwise it's just Pokemon but freaks. I remember Frankie said that once thing he's going to try to carry from Look Outside into Malison is party banter and interactions.
>>724963304where's the other version of this
>>724963346Around
Why is the rat baby so useless?
I think if the Visitor beamed its proprioception into my brain I'd be fine tbhdesu
>>724963876If Emmanuel was the protag he would have tanked that shit
>>724959531it's the same as perfect ritual so technically yesyou need to keep some days in reserve though because exploring the meat world takes a lot of time and you need to be able to get to all the minibosses without wasting any, or at least with one save beforehand because Sybil gets disabled and you can only save by sleeping so you don't want to softlock yourself into an awkward spot
>>724964058Apparently Frankie is making it so that exploring the landlord dungeon and flesh dimension (both Apartment 31 and Sybil's meat hell) appropriately makes time pass far slower than it usually would
>>724963814He's trying his best, but he does get a reasonable boost at level 12 now.
>>724950827Does this thing even have skills? I've heard they only become visible after equipping a weapon to her
>>724924338So if someone is schizo enough, the schizo can basically weaponize the visitor. CWC's dimensional merge would become real if he encountered the visitor.
>dozenth playthrough>Sam is now a crazy person that speedruns Mario Bros. then proceeds to run through looting other apartments, rush downstairs, stab a giant monster in the eyes with a pool cue, then sprint into a woman's bathroom and steal her single cockroach
>>724924338So is there any reward for sparing Shadow Fred or is he still useless. I thought Dev said he was gonna add a reward for all the freds.
>>724964150thank christ, both of those zones are so genuinely obnoxious if you're trying to get to the basement fast enough, especially since there's fucking time sensitive events you will absolutely get screwed out of because of it
>>724924338Wait, this isn't an Earthbound/Undertale-like game?
>>724964618Not yet, I hope it's related to the shades/Masked Shadow
>>724964674it's more like earthbound because it's a traditional turn based menuing battle system
I feel bad for Dan
>>724964717But does the existence of "runs" mean it's not a... what do you call a not-roguelike? Static? Prebuilt?
>>724964765Sam has killed at least three parents in front of their own children.
>>724964556Yes, she has bite and multibite which is flat damage plus bleed. Multibite is pretty strong for how cheap it is, but she doesn't scale much beyond that. I would know, I beat the whole game with her.
>>724964803it has a structure that's more run-based because the game is not that long, your total amount of playtime is timed (even though it's a generous amount of time), but even still there is a large amount of things to do in the gameworld and you will probably not see all of them in one run. you will miss things. that game is like 6 to 8 hours long is why anyone would bother replaying it to see the stuff they didn't see the first time.
>>724924338I swear it was called "Don't look outside"
How many new areas were added in the new update?
>>724964915That's not nice, she's light-sensitive
>>724928529I just pirated it.Even though the game is good I will not support a leaf.
>>724964942I see, thanks. This is why I refresh the popular threads page, running into these and making a cool find/new info
>>724964993Don't worry I equipped her with the dark robes, she was FINE. Turns out she could leave the whole time.
Frankie I know you lurk this board, so please revamp Apartment 37 on Cursed Mode so that it's harder to expose the photograph and/or acquire the guinea pig. Make Vincent unkillable until day 3 wherein he's a Dagon-esque monstrosity blocking his doorways with giant eyeball growths. It'd be more fun than whatever you did with the painting.
>>724961585I don't understand your question. There's defense and resistances. There's ways around both.
>>724926380sitting alone in the dark while the Spider fucking ownzones me using Sam as a proxy
I got this game a while ago and played through a little bit, but felt like I was going to do everything wrong and mismanage my resources and softlock myself. Tell me it's hard to do that and that I should stop worrying and just keep playing. I also had this fear about spending any downtime in the apartment and felt like I had to maximize time spent exploring.
>>724963814If he was strong, then giving up your arm wouldn't be a sacrifice.>>724964565The fun part is when you realize Dan can power level his viewers by repeatedly insulting Tumor Fred, only taking breaks to slam back vodka or coffee. His audience LOVES it.
>>724966334there's probably no way to give Tumor Fred a reprieve from his suffering, although on the bright side, killing him must make the other Freds' mental cacophony significantly quieter
>Dan's Quest endingI felt like that was in-character but holy shit does that ever call out how completely driven streamers are to exploit any situation for content. Thank god they actually made Dan feel sadness to redeem him a bit for that. I really appreciated how much work went into his portrait to express his actual sadness.
>>724966334>300+ people watching a loser go nuclear on a writhing pile of flesh that's barely sentientworst part is how reallistic this is
>>724966686it's funny in a way since Dan is a microcosm for the Visitor, in that the Visitor is just mindlessly watching a 'stream' of the planet's destruction
>>724966686>>724966890>Dan is devastated when he loses his streaming channel for directly filming the visitor. It's not long before he starts up a new channel and he's back to his usual antics.
>>724966249Resource management is a part of the game. Fully soft locking yourself as a result of wasteful spending is tough, but possible.Time is very generous, though. You actually have a lot, and enough time to beat several games to with multiple days left. Getting to the 15 day time limit takes a concerted effort, and spending time in your apartment can get you more resources at times, both from wandering merchants, and fights.
>>724967054tihhis onnly happens if u dont do his quest. if u do it then he quits streamming.
>>724967030realistically his new channel would do insanely good since he'd be "That guy that DIRECTLY streamed the Visitor with its full attention upon him, and lived"
>>724966249it's hard to softlock yourself by wasting time, you have a lot of it. you're definitely not going to see everything in one playthrough though, especially now with all this new shitthe only time-sensitive stuff is like one or two things required for a very specific ending and you still have a little leeway on them
>no going back ending describes the hundred gods as inhuman tyrants>charan has a non-mutated bf and tries to help everyone he findsIs Frankie schizophrenic?
>>724967675...what? What are you trying to say?
>>724967675There's got to be a lot of variance between over a hundred dudes
>>724967768I'm saying the writing is inconsistent, pretty simple
>>724967934How? The entire game beats you over the head with the fact that everyone takes change differently. Why is it confusing you that some of the cursed remain good people?
>>724966890>Dan is a microcosm for the VisitorI think that is poetic as all hell but I don't want to believe that is on purpose - it's too fucking smart. And it's not necessarily the same thing: Dan is performing and not watching; the visitor is just watching and not really performing. And while I do think some of the game is very smart, I think Dan is just satire of streamer behavior.
>>724967675I understand you're going for a guy joke here but Charan is still small time compared to the few gods we see. He kind of wraps around a 3 story building, the gods go from small skyscrapers to mobile mountains
>>724968302he grows over fifteen meters every hourI'd be in his cult
>>724968302>guy jokeGay*
>>724968427Unless some of that is girth he'll never be a real kaiju
>watch dozens of playthroughs from people on youtube>they never get DanI STILL have no idea what his lore is and no, I will not play this game myself.
I literally just beat this game the other week, true ending. Is it actually worth another play through.
>>724968573only if you're autistic about seeing everything, you get value out of repeat playthroughs in this game based entirely on how much you care about extra content
>>724968573I like messing around with party compositions and gear combos, but that's just me.
>>724968561I have over ~10 playthroughs of this game and I've only seen Morton once at the start of a playthrough so I couldn't recruit him. Every other time it's been cursed Morton.And guess what? There's a crossword-related ending now. And guess also what? Morton makes crosswords easier because he's a crossword god. Fuck me sideways.
>>724968898I think at that point, you should just cheat him in lel
For sake of everybody in this world, please don't open this picture anons...
>>724963304The guy who made this is posted in these threads and he shared the animation on frankie's discord iirc so my headcanon is the hug scene was added as a tip of the hat to him
>>724964560I don't know if I understand it correctly, but basically the Visitor is like Carmen, the source of Cogito or the Light, when humans are exposed to it they change into eldritch monsters, sometimes a human can distort and turn into raw mass of emotions with an according form to it, reflecting it's inner self. The effects vary from person to person, some turn into cursed entities who are unable to move or talk, some turn into giga niggas of destruction and death. Sam is a special individual who is able to manifest his EGO in form of jrpg protaginist plot armor, a reality where power of anime and friendship can kill even a God
Stupid fucking gay spider nerd
>>724969042AIIIIIIIIEEEEEEEEE IM GOING INSANE WE'RE MELTING HELP MEEE
>>724968898yeah no fuck frankie for that oneMorton should NOT require 15 fucking Junk just to look in your general direction, or at least that should be relegated solely to cursed mode
>>724968898You know how to fish for companions, right?
>>724969164That seems to be a common theme across many forms literature, media and myths I noticed.
Anyone got a list of what each of the locked safes contain? I can't find one and never remember so I'm about to make my own goddamn list
>>724969231I'm drawing lewd of him. These are his equivalent of spinnerets, right?
NEVER PAY MORE THAN $0 (ZERO UNITED STATES DOLLARS) FOR AN RPG MAKER GAME
>>724970132I think this is accurate.https://lookoutside.miraheze.org/wiki/Safe
>>724970374I suppose
>>724970556
>>724940483I didn't know there were questions about things other than party members, this is if you kill Jeanne
is spine capable of becoming a permanent party member or are they only regulated to being temporary
>>724963814I was hoping he would be really strong by the late game like maybe it turns out he was the Rat King's baby and you get to have some of his skills in your party
>>724971693She is temporary and will show up whenever you enter meat world alone with enough Spine affection points. There was one patch where you could smuggle her out because Frankie forgot to put a check on some of the exits he added, but that was before pretty much anyone knew how to recruit her.>>724971670Honestly disappointed there wasn't one for Spine. I think Sam choosing to leave his sleep paralysis demon alive would give anyone cause for concern.
>>724972025There isn't one for Lyle either even though he's one of my most used party members, I just assume Spider doesn't want to pry into those two for whatever reason
Frankie I know you lurk this board, so please let me hug Jeanne and Audrey and Phillippe more
>>724972025there's a shower thought that already serves that purpose, it would have been redundant
>>724972453I suppose, though the tooth family does get a mirror monologue as well. I think Spine actually has two shower thoughts but I've never gotten both to fire in a single playthrough
>>724972334Let him hug spoilers but make every single second of it awkward and painful for the receiving end.
I know 2.0 is supposed to be the last content patch but I hope he goes back and puts in more character interactions, or things like more character ending dialogue/artwork to the promise ending.
>>724973305There are already quite a lot of character interactions. A cool one I found recently is that Audrey will recognize the dead body on the ground floor next to the pool cue as her old neighbor.
Are the new fred items cursed mode only? Or can I get the armor on easy/normal?
>>724973305Lyle's fate in Promise seems unfinished, it's the exact same regardless of whether you finish his DnD campaign>>724973490You can get them on any mode
>>724926043Just don't let those fags in
>>724973526Cool thanks, time to start my 2nd run and do some different choices.
>>724941251LOL Kreia
>>724973305Apparently there's going to be some polishing, still.
>>724925880My headcanon is: >Hellen gets the couch>Leigh sleeps on the floor with rat child like a dog>Joel gets the bed as I feel like sam wouldn't let a kid who just lost his entire family sleep anywhere else. >Everyone else sleep on the floor/table>>724955956God, I love my wife. Such cool art as well. I'm so glad to squash/cuck that bug who was giving her trouble.>>724962271To be fair her boyfriend probobly abused/cheated on her.
Don't like Spine, she's a stalker bitchDon't like Lyle, he's a stalker bitch (forma patetico)Don't like Philippe, he's a traitorous rat piece of shitNothin personnel
>>724974594philippe was just mind controlled by the spores he's a good guy
wriggly fred still has the best reward
>>724974594Spine was just mind broken by the extended isolation she's a good girl
We should be be able to put Spine into Louis' empty fursuit while in the light world.
>>724975405We should be able to use Spine's corpse as armor.
we should have been able to unequip lyle's robes at one point like how hellen changes her mask
>>724974797Someone needs to write a story where Spine gets redeemed. The pieces are already there.
>>724974797I also wonder if Edwin also had something to do with her losing her mind?
>>724975792>random limbs nigga remakes you and vanishes you to the times 23 meat dimensionmm yea probably
>>724975763This but Jeanne story instead
>used roaches on cursed modeYou didn't beat the game
If you used Rabu's beam you are a subhuman, simple as.
I love this game, just hate the boring RPG maker combat.
>beat game on easy>See all the content>Start cursed mode>Immediately get bored>Delete gameShould I even bother?
>>724976470>Joel, Hellen, AudreyDid I beat the game on cursed?
>>724976731absolutely, the best member in your lineup is hellen and she's not even that good
>>724976706If you like Look Outside and want a challenge/to see the extra boss fights, then yeah.
>>724976346Someone already wrote a story for her. It even predicted the hugging scene that 1.6 added. Another chapter wouldn't hurt though.
>>724976965I just don't like the busywork of having to go back and heal/save. Literally all I need for cursed mode to be playable is the ability to save anywhere, then I wouldn't give a shit about the high damage in encounters.
I drew the secret companion. Now to get back to work on another spider.
>>724977381Nice Spider. I'm always blown away by your shading.
>>724975763Surely someone is out there making a playable Spine mod with story interactions and party banter
>>724967030Wooooooooooow nothing I could do ack ack ack ack
So nothing happens with Sam’s plant?
>>724977381Nice
>>724977767I think she'd pick a warrior in M&W and act like Papineau in the sense that she's oblivious of most of the game>>724978045>>724977714Thank you
>>724978015Its merely there to attract dates (with Hellen)
>>724970374Those are the old timey camera photo reels so very likely yes
How do I open the second door behind Jasper that requires discs with a total value of 15? Used Earth + Mars to access GF but changed to Sun + Negative because I needed Earth for the first door. Now I'd need Sun...
>>724978319There's a special dick that can subtract
Did Sophie ever legitimately have these skills ?
>>724978480yeah yours BOOM ROASTED
>>724974164Leigh was an ass with everyone judging by the way she named her family in her phone.Her Pre-Visitor self was probably on-par with the worst people browsing this board on her good days.
What is the "obliterated" death achievement for
>>724979374I feel like I've met a million Leighs in my lifetime. My cousin is like that. I like her as a videogame character but irl they would just kill anyone because they think they're the best and can do no wrong.
>>724980059she strikes me more as a "kill them all and then kill myself" type who KNOWS how awful she is, but can't bear to acknowledge it without killing themselves
>>724978098I hope you put together that MEGA of your art, anon, it would be nice to have it all in one place.
>>724979374<spoiler>Given how her dad call her "daydreamer", it can be infer that she constantly argue with them due to wanting more out of life then what they want from her. Probably made fun of her for not being "all there" when she's around them. </spoiler>What boards she would browse though?
>>724980442anon… your ctrl+s…
>>724951732I T I S C O R R E C T
>>724978319When you complete the basement, you get another way into the GF.
>>724979374I just presumed she had a massive falling out with them right before the visitor hit. I doubt her BF was always "LIAR"
Is anyone else having trouble with the taxidermy apartment? Every single enemy in it does so much damage to meAlso, is the charm status effect useless or did I just get unlucky with it
>>724979374>>724980561yeah i assumed the obvious "she was having a breakdown before/during the visitor hit and that's why she mutated into a giant smile monster"
>>724980561The boyfriend doesn't even seem like that much of a dick honestly. She's just way too much.
>>724980723>>724980765Hence why I said she's splitting. At least she eventually accepts that she can be both Leigh and the Beast.
>>724961769Adventure parties always break up, even if they're friends. It'd be weird if they hung around Sam like a cult.
>>724966334made me laugh
>>724978231And at the end of the day that's all it really needs to do
>>724980704The taxidermy apartment has extremely strong enemies, but you can dodge all of them and nab the equipment if you know what you're doing. I think charm goes away when you attack them so you're supposed to ignore them.
>>724980982this is excellenceI can HEAR the chat flooding with replies
>>724980982>Tumor Fred is crying...
>>724980982Amazing, thank you.
Does Dan's chat say anything unique for certain enemies (other than their stats)
>>724980982>sam opening another one for himlmao fucking incredible
>>724968561All three of the people I watched got Dan, skill issue.
>>724981039I think only the final creature is hard, super fucking annoying with the fish and croc doing a lot of damage
What would anons of each board change into if the visitor arrived irl?
>even after you sabotage his offering and beat the shit out of him, even while he's going insane and tripping over his own retarded body, aster still comes back to help you against the mask shadowActual kinoToo good for this retarded apartment building
>>724981939>/d/it just becomes irl
>>724981939Trash would be like Louise and mutate into horrible abominations due to falsely thinking they will be their fursonas/waifus.
>>724981939all of my jokes are pretty much group fights that end up with the creatures fighting themselves>the /o/ guys are a mix of japanese european and american cars>the /tv/ guys are two waifufags who fight over their waifus and then two guys that have spent years repeating sneed and bane memes and just refuse to attack anyone, they just say "sneed" and "for you" constantly>/v/ would have snoys and tendies fighting each other and the xbox guy would be an entity that does nothing, doesnt even talk
>>724978319pretty sure you need elevator access
>>724980982Fucking amazing
why can he wear the headphones? which bands would he listen to
>>724982392at first I thought he was aiming a gun, but realized it was his phone, and then realized that having a livestreaming phone pointed as you is even more threatening than a gun
>>724982553>Godspeed You Black Emperor>Dark Noise>18 hours apocalyptic ambience>'We Were Angels' Dragon Ball opening song
>>724982565that's why tumor fred is crying
>>724982553He definitely rocks out to neofolk 24/7https://youtu.be/_nLySTejhD4
I want a game that has monsters like this one but without all the rpg stuff. A dating game stardew valley like for people with really good tastes in monsters.
Are there any gay characters in the game?
>>724982986Lyle (party member) and Charan (random beast you talk to)
>>724982986
>>724982986there will be one very soon, as soon as (you) play it LMAO gotcha!
>>724982025Which would be the worst of the mutated /d/ anons?
>>724981941Not to mention one of his first acts on transforming is to INSTANTLY realize what he's capable of as a Baku-style Cursed and wakes everyone in the building the fuck up so he can't eat their souls or whatever he's capable of
>>724982986I think just two. An optional party member you can kill if you don't want them to join you and a minor NPC.
>>724983117dorse calvary jousting with shitting dick nipples
>>724983137All party members are optional, just check social media and play cards with the hobos in the basement and you'll evade the lonely status effect :^)
>>724980723>Being in the middle of a massive woman moment bipolar episode allowed her to tank viewing the visitor and project her nasty side into a beast form she can transform in and out of at will.Damn.
>it's a "don't get enough cassette tapes to trade for a coat of arms" run
I wish Wizards Hell was a real game
>>724983479The hand monster at the bottom of the stairwell "can" drop a Coat of Arms. Just get a save ready to farm and reset against it, until you get one.>>724983540>Fucking spreadsheetslop game!t. Dan, probably.
>>724983540I love how you can absolutely tell half of the games are ideas Frankie has had but never developed
I know for sure that if the visitor hit us. I would instantly get cursed the moment I go downstairs since I always open the window curtains in the morning.
>>724983540premium Leigh reactions to that gameyou ruined sadism for her
>>724983784forgot about that, thanks anon. he straight up dropped one so if I can trade for a second I can have three of these
>>724981039Yeah I did that for a couple of the rooms in there, think I'll go back there after I saveI charmed Needles in there and he still proceeded to hit us anyway despite not targeting him, was strange
>>724983850I would just kill myself immediately if I found out how bad the situation really was desu.
>>724983865>Wait, eternal torment can be boring and routine?? Oh God. I'm a fraud.
>>724983540Dungeon Keeper
>>724983850I'm the opposite, I don't like light. I guess I would just hang out with Lyle and Spine. My building is interesting, next door neighbors are a family with a bald, toothless father, an obese mother, a lesbian daughter, a literal schizo son and another son that lives with his dominican wife and 2 babies so plenty of potential there. downstairs there's an elderly couple, I think they're both near 90. And above me there is a fucking retard that has almost flooded my apartment twice in a year
>>724924338I like Fear and Hunger 1 & 2, will I like this and give me goosbumps like those games did? Looks silly and the mc is so ugly and meh. How am I to believe this unremarkable dude takes on cosmic horrors?
>>724983949Morton can also get a bootleg version as one of his fidget gears.
>>724984274i guess it depends on who's playing it but this game made me feel worse than f&h precisely because it has plenty of silly moments so when something bad or sad happens and trust me bad things will happen if you play this game especially blind it hits harder
>>724983784
>>724984417Fuck I miss Dan, man. Playing videogames without it or hell, even just stealing or buying vidya without him is lame.
>>724984417my favorite video game interaction easily. Audrey is a top tier companion, if only she wasn't so SHIT
>>724984274It's more similar to Lisa than Funger.But if it helps, you mostly aren't taking on cosmic horrors, just the horrors spawned by one. Like fighting a deep one instead of Dagon.And the MC, Sam, isn't an unremarkable dude. He's a Gamer with easy access to an Anarchist's Cookbook.
>>724984560Audrey is an amazing companion if you give her the training belt. At 800+ HP she basically never dies and can be the designated survivor for your entire party. Got me through many fights in cursed mode.
>>724984417Is Dan the best character in the game? He's both extremely funny and a genuinely great party member to have
I know i shouldnt but i was reading bits and pieces of this thread mid blind playthorugh and I don't know hardly any of these party members or events. the only one I got permanently was papineau and the bum got killed by his own pet after 1 day of exploration. I will soldier on with just my 2 guys until I find out some other shit but I feel like im missing practically the whole game based on this as I try to raise my rat son I gimped my main char for to have a 3rd guy. very cool game
>>724984707Honestly, is anyone even really that shit in current patch? Papineau falls off a cliff but he's the earlygame carry so he still has a role. I like that everyone's viable or has some busted-ass strategy currently.
>>724984875>the bum got killed by his own pet after 1 day of explorationCol. Squeakums would NEVER!
>>724967341I can't believe Dan peeped the horror and survived!
>>724984875dont be afraid to stay a couple day indoors chilling with the homies, it'll allow ratkid to grow up and you might get new friends. also minor spoilers but if you catch the roach in jeanne's (slug hydra girl) apartment on floor 2 then return home then leave food on the table overnight you'll have a great party member in a matter of days but glad you're enjoying it
>>724984915I haven't seen how good he is in battle but on paper Spider sounds like shit because you get him so late in the game, you're likely to already have your locked in party by that point
>>724984864After his buffs I reckon he's top tierHim and Joel are fucking gnarly
>>724984992he 100% did that during the roof segment, just started the stream right before the door opened, told chat to peep the horror, and walked out with face and phone aimed right at it
>>724985061The 'secret' party members as a whole seem a little undertuned or underbaked currently, but I wouldn't be surprised if some of them got boosts later. Bumrushing spider could be an interesting methodology but it relies on your Sam not getting wrecked in the fight. You'd want numbness from Jump Bros 3 but I wonder what the minimal gear requirements are to win.>>724985186Considering that the social media posts don't work, I wonder if it just showed up as a garbled mess to them. Obviously the roof segment works a bit different, but digital formats have a weird incongruity to them when it comes to the Visitor.
>Apparently there will be another patch that adds some unfinished things inHope for Melt guy getting in.
>>724985624I want something to do with that human centipede guy in the basement. Way too fascinating to have zero interactions with at all.
>>724984417>dan gets fed up with audrey backseating and starts ignoring her>audrey proceeds to start firing cans all over the room
>>724985531I figure it'd work, but just in that moment, and only because it's THE EVENT involving Sam and the Visitor. So Dan alone of everyone in the world gets to be the guy who successfully livestreams the Visitor in full HD.
>>724985531don't you already need to be beefed up to fight the boss shadows on every floor? because that's the minimum requirement to even get into spider's fight
>>724985061a friend of mine managed to get him on day 4, depends on mutt's shop though
Is there a kill everyone genocide ending yet?This game is so undertale inspired I was shocked there wasn't one in the base game.
>>724983850My pillow is positioned directly under my window, my blinds don't close all the way, and I don't have any curtains. I'd probably wake up as some kind of two-headed tentacle spider or something and complain in the happening thread about how bullshit this is.>>724984417Audrey is so fucking cute
>>724985903Do they even explain how Sam's party gets away completely unscathed in most of the endings when they're being irradiated by maximum amounts of Visitor radiation? Since even secondhand viewings fuck people up. Obviously the Cursed party members are fine. >>724986013Yeah, you do, but to be honest it feels like after you hit level 10-12, you're established enough to handle most threats. I haven't fought the boss shadows as much as I should, but I really am curious as to how hard they are because even on Cursed difficulty, the game's difficulty drops immensely after you get a full party and some core skills.
>>724985061one thing I do dislike is because some of these characters have so many requirements and hoops you have to jump through just to get them you can barely even actually use them, like Audrey requires hitting ground floor and 5 bucks worth of coins at bare minimum just to have her available and Aster literally doesn't join until after almost the entire fucking game is done, Spider really feels like he exists for the sake of the secret and not actual gameplay
>>724986151A scrapped idea for the Perfect Ritual routes was that, right before Sam communes with the Visitor, he has to fight his three party members who have transmogrified into hostile mutants.
>>724986151>Do they even explain how Sam's party gets away completely unscathed in most of the endings when they're being irradiated by maximum amounts of Visitor radiation?Again because I figure it's THE EVENT between Sam and the Visitor, which halts the power of the Visitor while it turns its attention solely onto that one roof top. So everyone gets away without changing, but they still end up fucked up and 'changed' from witnessing what happens.
>>724925339The promise ending gives a summary on what each party member goes on to do, most of them anyway.
>>724985624I'm pretty sure the Olm is a rework of this guy's encounter
>>724984875>the bum got killed by his own pet
I like to think in the Denial end that all your companions became god-mutants, but instead of tyrants they become helpful gods like you thanks to your example
Pro-tip, kill non-recruitable door encounters in the early game of cursed mode. Lots of good drops and they always come back.
>>724986080No, and there's literally no payoff for killing everyone. Honestly super disappointing. Even sophie has zero dialogue if you kill her mom in front of her
>>724986080>This game is so undertale inspired
jesus poor rabu
>>724974594Phillippe was born into mind controlHe just needs a proper and very thorough deprogramming
so is there anything to this other than being a reference and having a good torso item
Is Spider supposed to be an alternate Sam or something? Sorry if im late to that party.
why is sam black
>>724986730Yeah thats all it is.
>>724986213Apparently dev's nerfing Aster's requirement to not need talking to Beryl, which makes him more accessible, but who knows how that'll pan out. >>724986327Hrm, disregarding bullshit regarding the unity ending which may as well just be Sybil's specific confirmation bias theory, so what you're saying is that because the Visitor gets its attention drawn to the specific apartment rooftop (moreso due to the Astrologists THINKING that the offerings will reach it), it nerfs its corruption because its observation is focused entirely on the quartet? I suppose that makes sense for why Sam doesn't get instantly pulped until he gets beamed up. >>724986290Would've been kino like Lisa the Painful's ending, but I understand the sheer sprite resourcecost alone would've been a pain in the ass, and make the final fights much more of a chore too. I wonder if the Cursed party members can get doublecursed - while Jasper mutates with the wrong item, his case was a weird exception.
>>724986674idk he kinda deserved it, did you see what he did to the twin caves after farming without himiko and zalatar's death?
>>724986730What the FUCK
>>724986730Just a funny LumpyTouch Easter Egg.
>>724986786he literally isn't
>>724986290That would have been retarded and potentially not make any sense. Then again, why does Jasper mutate again when he is already mutated?
>>724986760Spider is the save system in Malison, The reason why it hates roaches is that the rat hell equivelent in Malison is roach hell.
>>724986786Sam is supposed to be (you). Fat, unemployed, lonely, and racially ambiguous
>>724986080>le undertale inspiredkill yourself lolSoul Nomad did Undertale's "genocide run" before it existed in the first place, and it actually does fuck over the entire planet unlike UT's baby mode end
>>724986860Lumpy Touch cameo/reference because a popular idea when the game came out was that he was part of the game's artist.
>>724986730Shame the guy didn't go all in and make it a boss fight. Maybe with enough demand, he'd make it a patch.
>>724986906That explains why he recognised Hellen
>>724983540>>724983865Aster gets upset about you playing that game
>>724986668is there a place where the undertale inspiration shines through?the only thing i can think of is phillippe who is said to be based off ralsei but even then he's a subversion of expectations
>>724986730Datamine confirmed It's just a Lumpy Touch easter egg.
>>724986786Sam isn’t any race, he is a jim henson muppet
>>724931798It's a character from the dev's passion project apparentlyMaybe the main character seeing as it calls Sam "Brother"
>>724986937Why does Lyle look like strong sad from homestar runner?
>>724986890>Then again, why does Jasper mutate again when he is already mutated?you see people do that THE WHOLE FUCKING GAME man, come ON, the first fucking enemy does it!
Do I still need to guard before Wounded Neighbor turns into Leering Husk or does attacking him beforehand weaken that phase?
>>724987282Then why does Lyle explicitly say that he looked at your photo and it was safe for him to look but you shouldn’t.
>>724985624is that a tarman reference
>>724987056i believe that'd defeat the entire purpose of having a secret room with no indication it's there and finding it after touching walls like a schizo
>>724987368Because Lyle is already as changed as he can get, apparently. I don't see how that invalidates "people can continue to change"
>>724987457I mean it wouldn't mean much if the fight rewards nothing and is just there for fun. Do you people not remember secret super bosses in older RPGs? Hell, Mario RPG had it.
>>724987484The other people you are talking about change as a result of physical trauma. They dont change further based on looking at the visitor. Thats a one and done thing and jasper is already a centipede man from the first time you meet him.
bros I forgot the elevator game directions to get to the fourth floor
>>724986906>roach helllets goooo I love bug kino>>724987065waddaya mean, is hellen a malison character too?
>>724924491Picked up
>>724987878
>>724987912>waddaya mean, is hellen a malison character too?yup
i keep no buy game because game keeps add contentwhen game done and i can buy
>>724988035It's done right now, Frankie's not going to do any major content updates from here on out. Everything now is just going to be minor balancing and bug fixes.
>>724987656>just there for funanon you answered yourself, i get what you mean but not everything has to be a bossfight, plus culex had some hints like the monstro town npcs mentioning the noises and that mole girl selling you fireworks seemingly for no reason starting the sidequest, this room has nothing that hints at it, it's just for show
If there's Rat Hell is there Rat Community College?
>always brought at son along>now he gets a huge stat buff and starts whalloping things harder than hellen while being able to use gunsnever don't bet on rat
I love my rat son!
>>724988332Rat child should be able to use 2handers in both arm slots since he has two sets of limbs
>>724988540as Phillippe notes, it's against the rulesDon't want your son to go to Rat Jail so young, he'll come back all wrong.
>>724988540his little arms still need to develop and grow to hold giant powerful weapons
>>724988540I'm surprised frankie never seriously considered this for either him or phillipewell clearly he did since he put the line about it in but it actually would be a nice way of distinguishing characters and giving them more neat gimmicks that actually have big gameplay ramifications, not a fan of him nerfing 'le OP' characters in a single-player game
>>724988332look at him go!!
>>724988765it's clearly to keep some semblance of balance, and for god's sake how much more broken do you need some of these characters to be
>>724988857Rat Kid is shit though
>>724988857if everyone's broken nobody ishe already started buffing bosses anyway just so they couldn't be cheesed and you wouldn't get strong so quickly (Rat King now requiring you to get vomited on and give up your first turn for the crown), I was half-expecting Morton to get massive special buffs from the crossword weapons on top of trivializing the boss fight
>>724982553I bet he'd listen to Bal-Sagoth
>>724988892rat kid is really really good now and he's your son
>>724986786I actually cant tell if Sam just has odd features and is drawn under dark/dim light or if he's just mixed race.
>>724989238He's Canadian (Jeet)
>>724989238He is supposed to be fucking ugly.
>>724989294>ugly bastard gets all this attention from monster womenHow does he do it...
>>724989238Unemployed phenotype
>>724989238that's clearly a dumpy white guy in poor lighting, this race obsession thing is fucking bizarre
the game canonically has blue people
>>724924491Fpbp look outside dev is a sjw leftist tranny Canadian
>>724989238>>724989294>>724989336>>724989347he's just Greek
>>724989376I would love to see frankie fight that JF Gurepee guy (the ex university professor who fucks retards and killed his wife)
>>724989507That actually makes more sense than saying he is either white or black. He is still supposed to be fucking ugly regardless.
>>724989620He's not ugly, that's the best part, he's just... dumpy. A step below average. A 4/10.
don't care if Lyle is strong I'm still killing him
>>724989507he's a gamer
don't care if Lyle is ugly I'm still fucking him
