>bosses drop... le nothingWHAT WERE THEY THINKING who the fuck even replayed this shit? I can't even bother going for an act 3 run
The Radiance is hot.
>>737599631>LeI swear this board is permanently stuck in the year 2014.
>i can't play the game without extrinsic rewards to string me along!
>>737599724what's significant about 2014
>>737599747Letting the reward for defeating a boss be solely the ability to move to the next screen hurts replayability
>>737599814especially when you need money, but the game wants you to farm mobs instead of just giving them as rewards for defeating bosses and optional bossesit's so retarded
>>737599814Only if you don't find fighting the boss fun, in which case you weren't going to replay it anyway.
>>737599892well they aren't exactly nine sols bossesand build variety is severely limited, in part by not having money that you should be getting from killing bosses anyways
>>737600042I couldn't really get into Nine Sols, which is a shame, because it looks amazing, and I'm sure it would be fun if I got used to it. But I've never really liked parry-focused action games. It feels too passive to me.I see what you mean if it comes to bone shards because it's annoying to run out when you're trying to use your tools on a boss and you keep dying. But with rosaries, I don't really see what you mean. I never really felt an enormous amount of money pressure in Silksong. Most of the time you come across a new vendor, you can buy most of what you want except for maybe one or two things. It wouldn't make sense if you had no limitations at all and literally never had to make a choice between what items to prioritize buying. Although if you were dying a lot and kept losing your money because you couldn't make it back there to recover it, I can understand how that would be frustrating.
>>737599814Everything beyond the next screen is a reward for beating the boss
>>737601138you really should get into nine solsas far as silksong goes crests, charms and tools dictate the playstyle which dictates the replay value to me since I don't really see any of the bosses to be incredibleI'll say that some of the levels are incredible though, but not nearly enough for me to add it to my replay rosterrosaries are needed to buy charms and tools and the fact that you don't get at least something from defeating a boss (or optional boss) really diminished my desire to continue on a new run after I already beat the game nine sols is completely different, the build variety is less but the bosses are so fucking good that it keeps me playing it's seriously king of the genre
>>737599631Why do bosses need to drop something? The reward is progress.
>>737601768and the crests are all mid to late gamebeast is the only one I can think of that you can get "early" and it's not really anything special and requires you to get more tools anyways which costs money (rosaries)
>>737599814No it doesn't.
>>737599631>bosses drop... le nothingThe bosses that don't give you a reward are Moss mother, Lace (first fight), Moorwing, Fourth Chorus, Sister Splinter, the Deep Docks brothers, GMS (not sure if it counts though since she's a final boss depending on your ending and she does technically drops pale nails but you can only get it later), Cogwork Dancers, Conchflies, Seth and Zango. So, I'll give you 10.5 counting GMS as half. Google says there are 47 bosses, so congrats OP on being almost a quarter correct.
>>737601838>>737599892I find bosses fun but I want a reward that displays my achievements means something other than merely a subjective sense of accomplishment that just allows me to keep going forward.If all you can offer is beating the boss itself for a reward might as well just make it a boss rush
>>737601884You only need run/dash to get wanderer I believe.
>>737601973> I want a reward that displays my achievements That doesn't make it bad not to get that. These are games about exploration. Being able to access new areas (and everything within them) is a massive reward in itself.
>>737601895>DUDE just fight the rehash
>>737601895>boss drops key to open door to the next screenthis was a dishonest post and you know that
>>737601884Beast, Wanderer, and Reaper are all in act 1
>>737602217Whoops forgot about Last Judge because I prefer going through Phantom
