Well, what did you think of part 1 of Canto 9?Did you enjoy seeing some familiar faces return?
I dropped Limbus after Canto 7.
>>729753160Nothing, i didnt play it
>>729753160It's good art but they forgot she's too short to take up the full frame of her badge photo
when can we move on to meursault
why did they make the android girl so fuckable?why did they give moses childbearing hips?
I liked the fights, designs, and especially the music. It was nice that you got a smaller group of sinners for a few battles. Could do The Comedic Duo with NRyoshu & NSang and set up their combo in 2 turns. Allen Gregor also got to shine.
>>729755206I went full bleed personally and man does bloodfiendsault fuck shit up when he has multiple skill slots.
I haven't gotten very far into it yet but what I've seen so far hasn't impressed me>"hey ryoshu do you know these guys">"yeah I remember them...jk my memory is fragmented">fight six billion old pecatula and abnos
>>729753160For a Part 1 it's basically the best one we got like it's way better then shit like Heathcliffs for example. And the old Abnos having some new stuff is great and the lore for them is really funny. All around Great stuff like the music and art too
>>729756467>Shit like Heathcliff Heathcliff is second best right now, what you mean. It's only problem is those Time beggars. All other Cantos have variant grade of unimportant Part 1In fact part 1 for each Canto: 9 > 6 > 8 = 7 > 4 > 5Part 1 (and Part 2) for Canto 5 are so bad you can cut it and it won't really matter for overall narrative
>>729757075not everything has to be about story progression, part 1 and 2 in canto 5 were to create suspense and show the dread of u corp
>>729753160I think
>>729758259Strongest hag in history vs strongest hag of today
>>729756467I liked it but it ended a bit abruptly. I also wish the double apprentice fight was a couple turns longer.
>>729758259Jesus Christ Moses just gets to walk around like that utter sex.>>729753160Already starting off great hopefully will get better in later parts
>>729758259what chance is there that all udjats are exclusively woman
Nsang, AweYoshu, Lei HengSault and AwlGreg were fucking stellar as a team for the fights
>>729758848Based, exact same team I used
>>729757759Well it did a piss poor job other than establish some basic things sailor do everyday and introduce Ricardo. And nobody cares about mermaid or remember Smee or that party boat. Hell, fucking Arknights crossover enemies are more memorable than Lake monsters
>>729755153IDs will go to male sinners btw
>>729758747knowing Dias, very likely, at the very least the commanding officers are
>>729753160>familiar facesOKAY/10 since they only really appeared >GAMEPLAYAbsolute ass, shit nigga most of it was recycledI'm still in awe we had three back to back nodes of recycled abno fights in a sea of peccatula fights, and the two boss fights were lame>STORYPretty good start though I would have preferred another district rather than trudging through another facility all chapter. Not a fan of the amnesiac Ryoshu angle. I'm going to keep enjoying motivated Ryoshu while it lasts>NURSEFATHERSGenerally lame except the Index padre>NURSEFATHER APPRENTICESKira and Albina a CUTE, and the Ren is also okay even if his fight was lackluster>MUSICThe final fight theme was pretty good until Albina joined
>>729758259insane lesbian hag sex
if you lose a stage, the results screen now give you actual real tips on how to win
>>729754832They did a good job with the absolute dead eyes
>>729759671That's actually pretty cool
>>729759232Index padre is the most lame since he difirenciates from everything established about Index so far and for being Roland. Ring is the best since it explores entirely different style of art direction from pointillism we had so far.
>>729759671Between this and literally highlighting mechanics it seems like they really wanted to remove any difficulty from the game.
>>729759950Highlights was eventually gonna happen, have you seen the novel that is Lei Heng's passives? And most of them do fuck all or the actual info is mentioned in the status effects instead lmao
>>729759671I see no issue with this same with the obvious highlighted text. Like if you're this deep into Limbus and you're struggling that's entirely on the player being ass and not reading
>>729759671lol, hits for absolute autists>First is the only one that matters and even than it hardly useful, since Ryoshu is the best to intercept powerful attacks for not having Charon Debuff.>Hint for people who can't read (which is probably fair since most of you fags are illiterate)>Hint for people for genuine retard who can't strategise to bring enemy SP lower
>>729759671There's also the clear statistics they added a while back so really there's no reason for anyone to look things up (which is good)
>>729758259
>>729753160It's complete garbageI haven't played it
>>729759871>since he difirenciates from everything established about Index so farThat’s what’s so interesting though, he’s the one who assumed the role of dad for Yoshihide and there’s got to be some ulterior reason for him to be so different from others Maybe he’s an actual big dog of the Index
Director's mommy problems can't be so sexo
>>729759950The highlights are good. They don't make the game easier, they just make it less tedious to read the skills and get the crucial information.
>>729760281I mean, his most powerful attack will never target Ryoshu. Also the third hint isn't talking about SP. It's talking about how when he uses his most powerful attack it loses ATK Weight and Final Power for every clash he loses that turn.
>>729760576I'm calling bullshit as soon as they make anyone more important than Weavers
>>729760604betting a rack rodya's not getting an id perfect for her yet again
>>729760681Wait, isn't that how Albina's most powerful attack works. I don't remember Lucio having one, lol.
>>729760910Albina is just hitting her, Lucio is by winning clashes
>>729760964lol, you're right. I literally don't remember this attack. I think he didn't use it against me
>>729760604He really wasn't subtle about this kek, she hits a kid every 20 seconds
Nobody from other Fingers actually notified the Middle Nursefather about the raid, he's actually here by coincidence because of Ricardo's coupons
>>729761178How? he literally uses this every 3rd/4th turn
>>729761350Nah he is screaming Yoshihide like a well trained parrot. Unless he is an actual well trained parrot and this is the only thing he can say.
>>729761279>everyone saying this is an obvious Rodya idThis means, dogrector will give it to either Outis or Ishmael, as always.
>>729761759This will be Ishmael. He always gives Rodya's or Don's obvious IDs to Ishmael.
>>729761279if this bitch ends up as an id she better go to ishmael
>>729760576>Seems to be the kindest to Ryoshu so far>Shaping up to be the biggest bad of the cantoWhat the FUCK is his deal?
Of anything this Canto firmly cemented that FRAUDgelius is weak to hostage situation
>>729761957the prescript told him to be nice to his daughter
>>729762025Who wouldn't be weak when something precious to you is being held hostage?
>>729762025>*enters*>*kicks her ass despite the hostage situation*>calls her a niggerhe isn't a fraud
Just fyi they leaked next week's id, or atleast one of them. Its index proxy Don.
>>729762331>Kicks her assMaybe in Don's fantasy.
>>729762474The Middle team will have to wait a little longer...
I'll be left with Alyssa here. You can go and make progress.
>>72975995090% of the passives are bullshit fluff, them highlighting the few that matter is just good game design.No one likes reading through 10 passives just to find the one thats raping your ass
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=S1GcTih7NQMi thought this canto would be heavily japanese themed and we'd go to Q Corp but it feels more like canto 4 than anything.I like that.
I didn't understand the lantern gimmick at all after reading and trying things lol. So I just beat him to death.
>>729763072Total Alyssa life....Funnily enough I think I had a nugget by that name die to Burrowing Heaven recently.
>>729763943the gimmick is that it's extremely easy to solo it
>>729763903It's always nice when the pattern breaks unexpectedly, as much as I was looking forward to seeing a japan-inspired nest.
>>729764012>clerk lover>breaches if insight work takes too long>breaches when the work result is good>can hypnotize nuggetsthank god we don't have to manage this nigger
>>729764110don't forget that it breaches when a nugget with its ego gear has 75% synchronization, whatever that means
So how close Canto 9 is to Hellscreen so Far? I think it is as far from source material as possible, at least with the concept of Yoshihide being a kid. Like the only lowkey thing tying Part 1 to book is Index father asking Ryoshu not to use fire
>>729763943The gimmick is every other turn the fairy hypnotizes more people, but anyone who lands the killing blow on the fairy becomes immune to it.In practice that just means you can guess who you'll get to keep in the fairy phases and can save their good skills for that.It was a bad fight before and it's still one now.
Did the boss already get nerfed or something? I saw a lot of people raging about it but I just kinda started winrating halfway through before getting cucked out of a kill by the cutscene.
>>729764623No it never got nerfed, people are just dog shit apparently or can't read which is not surprising
>>729755153ok wheres HIS ID(non udjat)
>>729764853he SUCKS
When do LoRniggas show up?
>>729764718I don't think anything about the final pair was even really that important to read besides weebman wants you to clash all his dumb counters and evades tin can's big mass attack which lies about the clashing odds (you can also just outroll it with an ego lol).Very annoyed however that they cutscene cucked me just so he could killsteal. I had Savage Tigerslayer's Perfected Flurry of Blades [超絕猛虎殺擊亂斬] ready and she was staggered for fuck's sake.
>>729764718>Director gives everyone a free "make the fight easier NOW" button>people still complain about the game being hardits never ending
>>729765110whats funny is PM nerfing shit isn't exclusive to them. Pretty much any indie game I follow that uses steam forums to talk to fans pretty consistently nerfs the fuck out of anything hard.
>>729765029This by PhilipKEKOLD
>>729765198indie game devs have a small audience and its terrifying to lose players since you're so dependant on word of mouth
>>729764110yeah whatever i'd let it escape on purpose just to beat it up like i do with phase 2 NT. Fuck abno gon do?
>"Hm clashing against this guy is kinda tricky">remember that the chesed skill existswelp
>>729765198>>729765339nah even silksong nerfed itself and that had a limbillion players
>>729765370Don't they kill have to kill a guy when it escapes for some reason?
>the robotgirl got porn before any of the new girls introduced this canto
>>729765671catbox it
>>729753160I did.Also just noticed that the Ring victims they made into fucked up flesh golems are Mechanical Amalgams.That makes me wonder if N Corp fanatics would seem like heroes if they were the ones to show up at LCE headquarters during the raid and if they got beef with the Ring.
>>729765614There's lots of external factors that make them escape by lowering qliphoth counter
>>729765029Becoming a start of the city takes time.
>Ryoshu has amnesia nowdid I miss something?
Loli Ryoshu is cute.
>>729764265The only of Akutagawa's stories that seems tangentially related to Limbus (from what I've read so far) is called "The Spider thread", where a sinner attempts to escape Hell using a thread of silk from a spider whom he decided to let live instead of just killing for no reason. And even then, the connections are just superficial and not specific to the canto.
>>729753160I thought about limbus gameplay and closed the game
>>729766096They cut up her memories somehow, she had a passive called "Mutilated Memory" during the Lei Heng fight.
>>729764265I read it yesterday and so far there isn't muchI think one thing I noticed was the name Saru being dropped which stands for Monkey. There was a monkey that got named Yoshihide and sometimes Yoshihide was called Saruhide.
>>729766520>only thing Yoshihide can remember off her own volition is the fucking monkeyBRAVO DIRECTORRAVO
>absolutely destroys the canto antagonist offscreennothing personal
>Don Quixote is tulpa>Ryoshu is amnesiac >Faust is homunculus >Outis is Dias' double agent >Hong Lu isn't real name>Meursault distorted already Is there any other sinner who has big secret or brain problems that I should know about
>>729766820Gregor is an N corp sleeper agent
>>729766820Gregor is actually a bug turned into a man
>>729766820heathcliff is a furry and has tried to fuck sunshower fox
Ryoshu having her mind scrubbed this hard explains why she seethed when K corp had to mindwipe them.
>>729764853They sent those poor soldiers to die like nothing. Wouldn't be better to call some other color fixers?
>>729766820>>Outis is Dias' double agentim still baffled that everyone fucking glossed over this drop from Moses
>>729767218Director's Odyssey will mog Nolan's.
>>729767218People were theorizing Outis = udjat as soon as she was revealed
>>729767092In outis' uptie story they were intentionally sabotaged with broken equipment. But after she fixes her team's gear they kid index Dad's ass.
>>729755153Ryoshu's cousins are cute.
Lunar Memory is probably related to Ryoshu
>>729767524I can't believe we are going to the moon
>>729766820>Meursault distorted alreadyIs that even something special anymore?
brutal mogging
>>729767524*Index dad is fatally wounded*"Ryoshu... you truly were... our Project Moon..."
>>729767218No one really cares anymore plus it doesnt really matter. Oh, she is un udjat and works for Dias? So what? If anything that only makes more conforming, falling in line with the rest of sinners.
>>729767524Maybe Gebura ability will let you change all resistances to Fatal for a couple of turns
If Outis is Udjat, why’d she get an Udjat seasonal? Checkmate atheists
>>729767092Color Fixers don't grow on trees.And they aren't stat sticks, not all of them are fighters.
>>729767632now compare her to sinclair
>>729767218>Argos namedroppedIt could also be the hundred-eyes one.There are also two Euryaluses:>Euryalus, son of Naubolus, one of the Phaeacians encountered by Odysseus in the Odyssey.[11]>Euryalus, one of the Suitors of Penelope who came from Dulichium along with other 56 wooers.[12] Euryalus, with the other suitors, was slain by Odysseus with the aid of Eumaeus, Philoetius, and Telemachus.[13]
>>729767092They did not know what was really happening. And those guys are extremely effective at dealing with the abnos in the lab, they just could not expect that high ranking fingers where working together in a raid in the lab. It was like calling in the rabbits to fight the Red Mist in LobCorp lol
>>729768607
I loev Laetitia
>outis puts on the udjat mask when you trigger her passivesick I didn't know she did that
>>729767632>>729769137Now compare her to Rodya with Sinclair in the middle
>>729760227I unironically cannot recall most of these gimmicks in the game because I'm at a level of strength where I can autowin, and most gimmicks come down to "kill adds / clash with everything and don't lose". I legitimately think the "thinking aspect" of the game peaked at Kromer's gaze stake stunning the clashing sinner. That's fucking it. Everything else has been downhill from there and I don't even know what the last two bosses of part 1 even do, I heard people talking about some "don't hit them" but it was so easy it was never an issue to have to think about it.
I thought Yi Sang hated farmers?https://x.com/LimbusCompany_B/status/2006380050539778262
>>729770637Me on the left.(I'm about to kamikaze on the nearest group of minorites)
>>729770531Peak of complexity was railway trio in which you either:>Prepped up a tank so your team doesnt explode from unclashable attacks>Do speedrun strats to unga Ahab
>>729767218Hag forgiveness arc incoming
>>729753160>Such a womanlet she barely covers half of the ID photo.Cute detail
>>729764215maybe something like dropping below a sanity threshold
