Breathing Exercise is the most important skill in the game. Other than that, you'll want to get either Full Control or Water Flow fairly early depending on how good you are at timing your talisman detonations. Water Flow is easier to learn but Full Control has better damage and is recommended for high level play.

tired of that era when all games copied dark souls and it was always shit, must be le hardcore, must die in two hits or it's not le serious business, must have bonfires and lost souls/currencies sitting where you died. Also if you make a metroidvania either you make a map where locked doors/paths are shown so I don't go back thinking I forgot something there, or you let us draw notes on the map itself/place pins or symbols. Retards.
And have the character icons be different on it so I can find the merchant. That way I won't run around the entire map before realizing that he left and will only spawn again by continuing the game.

What is there to learn about water flow? You use your talisman and don't think about it right? Isn't the appeal to make smaller automated explosions so you can attack/charge attacks/parry/dodge in the meantime? Is there a secret advanced technicality about it?

Unrelated but what's the appeal of drop kicks over air parries? Do I use skill points for it to gain vertical mobility?
>>
>>739018197
>You use your talisman and don't think about it right
That's what I mean, there's less of a learning curve to using your talismans because you don't need to think about the timing. Full Control is much better in the long run though.

That’s because Nine Sols is objectively better than Silksong.

Nobody wants to admit this because Team Cherry are Indie darlings and the pioneers of modern Metroidvania, but Silksong was a total letdown when I played through it compared to Nine Sols.

He wanted to die, he thought immortality was a curse. But it’s also that the cats were being punished by the Tao for their hubris. There was no cure, they had committed a grave sin that the only way they could be saved was realizing their mistake and either regress to house cats like before or die with grace, like the religious cats did. Plus, living for ever doesn’t mean the dude was smart, dude was only in the council because Goumang wanted to run experiments on him, he wasn’t smart, rich, or anything like the others.

Phase 3 having this pious sounding OST is because it is Yi's OST
A Yi that has fully accepted what the correct "inaction" is

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=B9m45UIuMGA
The lyrics "道可道也,非恆道也;名可名也,非恆名也" (which is spoken in Solarian here) is a ancient Chinese saying said by Laozi, also known as Lear.
It means "The Tao that can be spoken of is not the eternal Tao; The name that can be named is not the eternal name."

This is arguably the worst part of Nine Sols, what the fuck is up with punishing the player for dying to an enemy for not learning its moveset despite never having seen it.
A solution to this while still keeping "drop currency on death" is to tie that experience to that specific enemy and have it not vanish once you die a second time.

I wish the parry did some internal damage like the unbound version, Sekiro did this to great effect basically allowing the enemy to do their 20-hit combos but not having it feels like wasted time.

Yeah in sekiro there's posturing management and you can hold parry and not take damage as long as you keep an eye on your posture. Nine sol copied sekiro but forgot that "small" detail. And you have less mobility to keep distance ( also hit range on some attacks are insane ) and study enemies.
When you see a new enemy you know you're going to eat shit.

>>
>>739041191
The hitboxes can feel a bit bogus but they make parrying easier because they're more likely to hit you. I realize that sounds like a cop-out but when you look at the entire structure of the Centaur boss for instance it's clear there's some real horseshit specifically designed to punish playing like it's Hollow Knight where you can dash around the edges of attacks and chip in for damage. Parry or die.

>>739041191
Sekiro should have never had charmed be the baseline of gameplay, charmless adds to the game immeasurably.

I like the feudalism mixed with cyberpunk asian tech. You barely scratched the surface after three hours by the way.
One thing it did better than silksong is create a world and characters you want to interact with and know more about.

Slightly more complex than Hollow Knight and made by chinks so you're going to be challenged a bit more. The map design is also objectively better. Better be good at parrying or at least learning parrying though.

No, Silksong's good, it's everything it was promised as. Really, it's just too big and too exhausting - like a souls DLC, with a difficulty curve that starts near the peak of the base game and then quickly continues past it, but significantly larger rather than smaller. The environments are pretty, the music is nice, the gameplay is tighter than HK, the story is as good - but you just get worn down by the end, it keeps throwing more brutal challenges at you after your motivation will already have started failing.

They'd have probably been better off making a smaller game (maybe even two, there's enough content in there that I wouldn't have felt shortchanged if it were half the size) with a gentler difficulty curve and saving the most difficult bits for optional DLCs.

The game is just bad its a 5/10. HK was a 7/10. It is somehow HK, but made worse(forcing sideq to progress, same bad boss reused 4x and as a final boss) and hella padded, while keeping all the issues people had with HK (horrible map system and indistinguishable area squares). Felt like a forced ai bot marketing campaign when it released drowning out any negativity.
>>
>>739047917
the movement speed of hornet in silksong alone makes it a much better game than hollow knight
bosses being actually challenging in the vanilla game instead of being optional DLC that can be skipped was also a plus. Act 3 and lost lace being disappointing as final bosses are valid complaints

Just because something is faster paced, doesnt make it better. The combat and boss design in silksong is worlds worse than HK(HK aint even close to Ninesols). What good are a horde of terrible designed bosses, whos main difficulty is contact damage and a ton of ads in most boss fights. Quality and design over quantity any day.

the bosses in HK are still better designed, i played both games back to back after playing Ninesols and i was astonished how they managed to devolve in boss/combat design from the 1st to the 2nd game. That is the price you pay for having a ton of bosses though, they all end up poorly done.

P3 is not that bad. P2 is the real hurdle. If you're barely scraping past P2 through luck then P3 shows up to say "okay but you didn't really earn the win yet, try again." Once you've actually mastered P2 then you just gotta learn one new move (two variations but neither are all that bad) and you're golden.

You'd be surprised how many people use the achievement tools to give them 100% libraries

P2 felt way easier for me, the charged attack where she unsheathes the sword and does the full screen attack has easy timing.
P3 for me was learning not to get suckered into the screen wide slash attack and rather just dodge at the beginning, but when she does the unsheathe attack in P3 and then immediately goes to screen wide slash you have almost no recover chance but to get thrown up from the initial counter and then get slashed 4 times by red attacks.
Or that's how I found it. I found my own way to handle her and it was incredibly satisfying overcoming my own shortcomings and getting better. Love the game.

Bought the game a few days ago and Jesus Christ, parrying shit at the right moment is a bitch.

It only gets worse, so get good. Have fun.

I beat her without taking damage

>get thrown up from the initial counter and then get slashed 4 times by red attacks.
she only does 1 red attack as part of the screenwide slash combo, you can just jump over it or dodge through it. all the other big slashes you can just parry in mid air

>Friend told me you get an achievement for beating Jiequan without the gene thingy
>turns out you get one for using it to weaken him

Still mad..

>>739064064
just do another playthrough
>>
>>739064064
Make sure you don't miss the robot fight one. That one would take even longer to retry on a second play.
>>
>>739062750
i unironically did NOT beat the game.
i used cheats to give myself a damage multiplier for the first 2 phases because i was so god damn tired after mashing my head against her for like 2 hours
>>
>>739064825
I did. And I didn't know about it till after I got to Eigong.
>>739064779
Some day in the future I will. When I've forgotten the map layouts and secrets. Tragically I'll never forget the plot, though.
>>
If you're just going for missable achievements and you've already beaten the game for real there's nothing shameful in just booting up a story mode run and cranking all the modifiers to max to blitz through it.

But Elon Musk never got an invite even though he begged for one, he was deemed too cringe for Epsteins party island.
>>
Fun fact: If you played at launch map data chips used to cost like 1800 jin a pop so getting them all without killing any Shanhai robots was a much bigger pain in the ass. I did all my grinding in the pink sewer area.
>>
I just tried this game out. It's good, I'm just trash at it. Currently, I'm getting filtered by Yingzhao. I'm a little salty that the first "real" boss in the game has 2 phases.
>>
>>739066381
The Centaur? Yeah he filters and filtered many many people including me. Just keep at it man, you'll get there.

It is your main option for defense, and the game greatly encourages using it often. There is an analogue to the Charm system that makes the game easier in case you have problems parrying correctly.
There is also a dash with invincibility frames but it is more of an emergency option.
Parrying also makes you a boss.
>>
>>739066381
That was my exact thought as well, didn't expect them to pull that kind of thing that early. Good news is that the next 1 or 2 bosses are much easier.

Thanks, anons. Also, why did they make Goumang so thick? I wish she wasn't evil.
>>
>>739065419
Musk has no trouble pulling women tho.
Then again, the two Presidents most connected to Epstein are the two Presidents who could seduce almost any lady.

>>739067954
The evil juice did that.

I wish I was an artist (Or could use AI) because the world needs more Ji and Heng smut.

Shaunshaun was also dogshit at art but he kept doing the damn thing.

Shaunshaun is an objective prodigy though. I am but an ordinary man.

Why did yi seethe about the storage being told big to fit useless treasures that could have held more solarians but made sure to include a massive mansion for himself

>>739070139
All of the Sols had fairly lavish living quarters, but also I'm pretty sure the pavilion is a public park he turned into a bunker.

That means he gets better faster, not that he does something impossible. Draw something godawful today, tomorrow, and the day after, and if you keep at it you'll draw something pretty alright.

>the movement speed of hornet in silksong alone makes it a much better game than hollow knight
I don't get where people are getting this. Hornet does not feel particularly faster or more nimble than HK aside from her sprint. She feels like a fucking barge outside of that. Blasphemous' Penitent One feels more nimble and agile than Hornet does. I think people just say that shit to avoid admitting Hornet sucks.

>>739044375
The platforming IS basic, it’s true. If you like the platforming first and foremost in HK or Skong, you’ll be disappointed by Nine Sols. But everything else is just better.

There’s a powergap between having a nice house and taking a truly insane amount of space to mothball rich people’s relics.

>>739043602
Most major video game media outlets would not touch the game with a 10 foot pole for obvious reasons so there was basically zero word of mouth around the time of release despite it being probably one of the best games of 2024.
>>
>>739070139
The bigger question is why Jiequan was allowed to have a whole torture dungeon
>>
>>739073590
Presumably it was just a jail that Jiequan took personal pleasure with at the start, before he started harvesting an immortal for meat for the infinite army.
>>
>>739073590
He was in charge of the council's whole military, presumably that just comes with the territory
>>
>>739032492
That message near the end when she cuts herself and it won't heal and she's just crying all alone and scared.

Fuck me.

What is the company behind this game even doing now?
I don't want a sequel or prequel to Nine Sols as it wrapped up perfectly but I'd love a game that plays the same way and has another good story.

Or are they going back to horror walking sims?
