Which boss is most fun?What will the studio make next?Why didn't this game get a single nomination in the 2024 game awards?
>>729380672>Why didn't this game get a single nomination in the 2024 game awards?Taiwan isn't jewish like America & Europe and Russia.
I like the part where you slap the fat chick
bros the last boss filtered me, I managed to get to the third stage but I just got annoyed of how many hours I spent trying to kill that bitch
>>729380672Lady EtherealNine Sols 2idk maybe china would get pissed
>>729382183It took me 3 days to kill that hag. Very worth it for the true ending
>>729380672Eigong (true end with 3 phases)Whatever they make next will be kino just like their entire catalogThey didn't pay shills and journos
>>729382541wtf I love taoism now???
didn't like it. felt too cheap compared to blasphemous
>>729380672i got this game gifted for Christmas it better no be an astroturfed furryslop
>>729380672>Why didn't this game get a single nomination in the 2024 game awards?Taiwanese devs who are openly anti-chinaAlso not a single fucking normie is getting past 1st boss in this game.
Eigong and Lady Ethereal are the only bosses that game has and i feel tricked.And Eigong is the only thing that made me actually think about my buildSex with Nuwa btw
Fuck Lady Etheral her boss fight was shit and eigong was way better
>>729383312Nuwa would be hot if she didn't have fucked up feet.
>>729380672Everyone props up the Lady Ethereal and Eigong but I feel not enough credit goes to the Centaur man. He actually forces people to learn the game and get into the parrying. Not to mention, his music is kino. I didn't mind getting my ass whooped as long I got hear his theme.
>>729383610Only annoying thing about him is the transition that takes too long
>>729383610He's cool but he's the only boss that isn't a real character. Even Kanghui has some plot relevance despite being a worse fight.
>>729380672Most fun is probably Lady Ethereal or the True Final Boss once you git gud
Lovesex with HengHatesex with Goumang
>>729380672Maybe I am getting old or just suck in reaction games, but it took me like a dozen attempts at the centaur boss which is early game basically. I progressed further but I feel I'll just suffer later. On the backburner now, have other games to finish.
>>729380672played this for free and it wasn't worth the energy billtaiwan will never be an independent country
>>729382541YWN have a bit dumb imouto that wants to spend time with (You)
>>729382183When she starts swiping the screen mash air parry. If she turns red, use your double jump and you'll get out of harms way. You absolutely want >recover internal damage faster jade >recover internal damage from strikes jade>convert some taken damage to internal damage jadeUse Full Control talisman. Your openings to do a fiver-blast are>after blocking a red melee with unbounded counter>when she uses the "dash behind you and the wind cuts you" attack; use the talisman's movement to start applying to her while getting just out of the wind hit boxWhen she takes a fiver blast it's a guaranteed stagger, so you have a bit of extra time to detonate the fiver during her next windup if you're late.
>>729384759I had some difficulty at first too, which I blamed on the animation being a bit choppy. It gets easier as you progress and get a feel for it.
>>729383830I mean, it's fairly obvious why. Kaufu isn't a fighter, even compared to Yanlao who at least had the combat droid ready to go.
>>729384759The centaur boss is designed to explicitly punish you for playing it like another metroidvania. You can't avoid attacks through i-frames or good spacing, you have to learn to parry. Its hitboxes are also so large that sometimes the facing angle gets hard to predict. When I replayed the game I beat multiple 'more difficult' bosses first try but still died to the centaur a half-dozen times because it's a very intentional wall.
>>729380672Because the beginning of the game kinda sucks and the first boss is dogshit.
Since everyone is already saying Lady Ethereal and Eigong, I'll go with the 9000 year old twink
>>729380672>Why didn't this game get a single nomination in the 2024 game awardsChina backed show
>>729387106Why he is a guy... why his legs looks so good?
>>729387106His fight is fun but i liked him more when he was a creepy weird little gooberIt's funny how earlier in the game when talking about some historical tyrant he's like "heh... well that label depends on your point of view" which gives you the vibe he's some kind of dark cultist, but later you realize he lived through that time and maybe even knew the guy
>>729387106Needed a third phase imo.
I liked the room where all the furries were having an orgy party.
>>729382541good lord
>>729380672I dont know but I hope it has sexo cat women
>>729380672true eigong and the sibilingshopefully they iterate on their interesting combat systemthe boses were very fun, but the rest of the game is mid
>>729380672>which boss is the most funThe final one but Lady Ethereal is a close second.
So what was that weird stuff with the dude lying on a hospital bed back in october about?You know, when they released that strange 3D puzzle game as a "beta"I thought they were gonna tease a sequel to Nine Sols but nothing happened.
>>729394315I think it's implying the Nine Sols sequel where Humanity has undergone some of the same troubles the cats fucked with. No idea though, weird marketing.
>>729382183The final phase of Eigong kills herself on you in record time if you apply everything you learned about her moves plus the few new ones.Her attacks all have a very distinct start-up animation for this reason, you don't need to learn any patterns, just recognize and react.
>>729394394I don't think I'd enjoy a sequel where we play as a human as much.Yi himself being a marketable pushie was a big part of the game's charm as well.
>>729394016Most normal enemies were big push overs so every area relied mostly on stage gimmicks to try to get you killed.Maybe it was a compromise so they could go all out during bosses.
>>729380672Lady ethereal was the best boss in the game by far.
It's been over a year and I still can't stop thinking about Goumang
The "parry" being nothing more than a glorified, harder to use block. And the entire game leaning on that mechanic made the entire thing a slog. It punishes aggression and rewards you standing there like a fucking idiot until it's YOUR turn to attack. The main character looked stupid while moving and attacking as well. It tried to be Hollow Knight where your character is a tiny creature fighting against massive enemies, but it missed the crucial detail where your tiny creature could actually move fluidly. And was entirely mute. I hated this game, I hated that you had to stop what you were doing to spawn a drone, to slowly go through a vent to open a door. It killed the pacing of the game. Parrying doesn't feel good, at all. your precision isn't rewarded, it's required. In any other game a well timed parry will make your enemy vulnerable, it was a high risk high reward decision for the player to make. In this it's just a shield but worse. I fucking HATE that so many fucking indieslop metroidvanias are putting parries into games rather than making combat movement feel fluid, it's just fucking lazy.
>muh parry too hard *shits and pisses himself*F I L T E R E D
>>729385041I do though.
>>729389382Most of the bosses did
Why did this game click for me but Sekiro didn't?
>>729394803Agreed, we don't get enough games with critter protagonist and society.
>>729395839Blocking makes a game braindead as turtling requires 0 effort. Nine Sols has "blocking" but you receive recoverable damage.
>>729382958>felt too cheapThis, there was something about it that made it feel like a flash gameI never figured out what that was, I mean it's a gorgeous game, but there's just *something* about itStill enjoyed it though, good game
>>729387106Was this the guy who was like a robot, he sent laser beams at you and he sat in his control room at the bottom of the screen controlling the robot that you fought, and then at the end you smash it through the screen and fuck him up? Something like that
What was actually Yi's plan at the beginning of the game, with regards to collecting the seals? Or was it just going murderhobo?>>729396961Anon's pic is Ji, the fortune teller who you first meet at the bell tower. For his boss fight he reveals he's much taller than he appears.You're talking about Yinjao or something like that.
>>729397101I think he wanted the seals to go to the control room and crash the fucking ship with no survivors.
>>729397101the "bad" ending already shows you what'd he'd do
