Yacht Club totally should have advertised the filters more. There's twenty of these things.Also, the game is good. Hammer is STILL the best weapon.
>>739812798>Hammer is STILL the best weaponBased, you don't need anything else.The desert/mines/monster belly area is a clusterfuck of mixed themes but the dungeon is great fun. Music carries it.
I wish these retroesque games actually targeted specific retro hardware. I'd be much more compleled to play them on, say, a Super Nintendo than a gaming PC.
>>739814419That does exist for some consoles. They are pricey af. Comes in physical, too. Often bad quality games.
>>739814486I was specifically thinking of Earthion that is getting a Mega Drive release this year. It was well received. Yuzo Koshiro actually did a few guest tracks for Mina so there's a connection.
>>739814631I was considering making a snes game, gden age aso. The limitations are real struggle. It's like wanting to trophy kill and elephant with an empty box of matches. Too much effort and little to gain. Weird customer base, too. I'd rather make a retro game with the right limitations. Mega drive is another story, had some ok releases in the last few years.
>>739814419Homebrew is a whole scene, my dude.
>>739812798What's the top right filter called?
>>739816103Nvm, it's called "dull"
>Enough time has passed since Shovel Knight released that there's now an entire generation of glooners raised to hate pixel artlmao
So which weapon did you pick? I went with the dual blades, but it doesn't matter because I'm 2 hours in and the game's still bad and I'm going to uninstall it.
>>739812798to me it's a second time im really enjoying retro looking game.last time it was that 50-games thing. with Barbuta and dinosaur wars strategy
>>739816602Is that moushley

>>739816894>blmbeautiful little mouse?
>>739816894>blm dev :(basedi bought another copy as a gift to my friend
>>739814419The game isn't even on PS4.
>>739814419They literally do though. I have seen a fuckton of retro games like the AVGN one have an avtual NES version only for fucking noone to talk about it
My son is 8 years old and bretty gud at retro vidya. I know this is way harder than any of the old zelda games, but can you meaningfully knock down the difficulty with the modifiers?
>>739812798Bought it day 1, what am I in for? I'll play it after work thougheverbeit.
>>739817630That's my pic from the other thread. What do you think you're gaining by doing this?
>>739817669Uh huh?
>>739816894and i should care because?
>>739812798the filters don't look great though, I'm not sure i'd pick any of these
>>739814419they do do that, all the time
>>739814419You wouldn't buy it. Where were you when Shantae released a GBA cart or Infinity for GBC?
>>739817858I'm waiting for Earthion's preorders to go up. I emulated Shantae years beforehand and it wasn't that good.
>she sees your dick

>>739818340She would've looked down if it were mine
>>739816894I guess this is one of those "political" games.
I thought /v/ was boycotting this game.What happened?
is the game good? Honest answers only, meme answers can suck my weewee. It looks cool. Oracle of ages is my favorite zelda and it looks very similar.
>>739818745I lied.Sorry about that.
>>739818836I won't answer your question but can I still suck your cute weewee?
>>739818745I got paid to say something nice about the game
>>739812798I can still barely tell what’s going on. On my Switch 2 the pixels are huge. These graphics are meant for a 2” handheld. Does it have a pixel filter at least?
>go down the waterway>meet some boss>instakills you>have to backtrack all the way>try to grab the spark and run>nope, he instakills you again because his spawn deals unavoidable damageAnd no way to preserve almost a thousand bones I lost. Fuck this, it reminded me of the booby-trapped save point in Silksong. Why the hell would you punish someone for exploring like this.
>>739812798Which one of these is meant to look good?
anyone else restart like 30 times to beat the kraken at the startif you're wondering, your reward for winning is 100 bones and a trinket that increases damage dealt & received
Why does /v/ hate this game so much? Is there a gay in it or something? Too hard for them and they feel insulted about the dumb sliders good players can ignore?
>>739819572I didn't think you could even damage it. Great job anon :)
What are these blue vial things that keep droppingapparently I have 20 of them?
>>739819728>Why does /v/ hate this game so much?it's a good game, that's enough for /vee/ to hate it
>>739819763the "head" of the tentacles are the weak pointalso i found out you can hit it during the pre-boss cutscene when it's grabbing up all the dudes for some free damage
>She sees your gorgonzola
>>739819728The only hate I saw before the day shitposting was about those modifiers. It's a game with at least mild popularity, of course /v/ is going to shitpost about it. Before that, nobody gave a shit. It's classic reactionary /v/.
Why the FUCK is this game so hard>get killed by a tough enemy>they steal your spark>now you can't get it back because you have to kill themThis is way more unforgiving than any other game with a corpse recovery mechanic. At least in those other games, if you accidentally walk into the wrong neighborhood and get killed, you can steal your corpse quickly and skedaddle. But this game tells you to go eat shit.
>>739819728They just want a tortanic
>>739819807Damn I thought I hit that. Thanks for the tip. Im already two hours in and don't feel like restarting.
ill pirate it on my switch when the NSP drops. i got too many other games to play though. im glad the game is good, mixing bloodborne and links awakening sounds made personally for me.
>>739819891you just have to git gud, faggot
woah, a 10/10Impressive!
>>739819728who the fuck careswhen was the last time a /v/ endorsement meant anything
>>739819226> booby-trapped save point in SilksongI died to that and actually laugh ( unlike the Bilewater one, that made me quit the area for a long time).Silksong, unlike this shitty game, looks gorgeous on the big screen and the gameplay is tough but fair (exploring the game makes encounters way easier or gives alternative paths).This one feels like it's hard just for the sake of it.
>>739820007skill issue
>>739812798This is not a green the gameboy displayed. Oh my fucking god how do you fuck this up?
>>739819891Another thing that boils my piss is that if an enemy knocks you into a pit with his hit, you lose the health you would normally be able to recover. They just fucking juggle your ass.
It looks. Like. Fucking. SHITWhy did they spend so much time to make a game look like the GBC Zelda which also look fucking terrible?

>>739820408uh oh shill meltie
>>739820445This is the main thing that's pissing me off about this game. I know that realistically I shouldn't have had any expectations because they are gonna make the game they wanna make but just considering the graphics, perspective, and world design I really thought this was going to be more akin to Zelda than it would be to Souls. Not every single type of game needs to be punishing to be good

Man, I wish this had a Vita release so I can enjoy it on that sweet OLED. It would have gotten some sales there out of novelty of being a Vita release in 2026.
Do it for Yacht club xisters
More sprite-based games should have alternate palettes. It is such a cool idea. The only other games I've played that have had this feature are Downwell and Zero Ranger.I beat the monster brain as my second boss. Back to wandering aimlessly.
Even the fucking font hurts to read on a modern monitor. Who was this game even made for? Just don't release it on Steam if the game is going to be garbage to look at it.
>>739821591I have a strong doubt Yacht Club made a "bad" game. I am full of wits and care not one whit what you think.You are effort posting over something you have not played. If you have played it, and you are still here snarking about it, I pray your refund processes soon.

>>739821516Sorry, that doesn't answer my question. Let me ask again, does burrowing better dodge most enemy attacks?
Alright, lads. For those of you that have played it, what is the better game, this or Pipistrello?
>>739821420For a single player, is this bad?
its kind of embarrassing how people are genuinely trying to act like this wasnt clearly and deliberately directly influenced by soulslike(especially bloodbourne) game design because “souls games didnt invent corpse retrieval”
>>739822220Given some of those are the 21k backers who paid for the game years in advance. Yes it is not good.
>>739822220better than that fortnite looking ass cunny game ripoff lmao
>>739822173I've only played 40 minutes of Mina so obviously my opinion means nothing but my vote goes to Pipistrello by a large margin
>>739822173mina has better production values, pipistrello has better game designneither is great
>>739822323>production valuesmeaning what exactly? The animation in Pipistrello mogs Mina so hard. I know Mina's animation is supposed to be retro but still...
>>739822220it'd be fine if it was made by a small indie team
I don't know why they thought it was a good idea to make a 2D bloodborne inspired game but I think it would've been better if they just made a gothic themed Zelda instead
>>739822272This is true. People can get technical, but game design is a "what have you done for me [of late]," sort of affair, and the strongest recent precedent for a corpse run mechanic is souls. I need to play it and make my own judgment, though.
>>739822272Not enough parrying to be Soulslop either. The very core of things is that Souls never really did anything "new" in action games outside of some online features. Things you're attributing to Souls are just action game features that have been around to some extent for decades. It still baffles me that Dark Souls blew up like it did.
>>739822546the influence goes much beyond the corpse running, play(pirate) it
>>739822272It's because some retard just had to ask for 3 examples of corpse runs before Souls games. As if that means anything lmao. Corpse runs alone do not make people automatically call something a soulslike
How do they update the game? Will it have a bunch of free dlc later or paid expansions?
>>739822605Soulslikes doesn't mean every mechanic or game design aspect is innovative, it just means a lot of them are consistent and show up in all these types of games
>>739822670I'm not sure how a bankrupt company will update much of anything...
>>739822605>Why are burgers such a huge thing? Meat and bread have been around for centuries? This is a worse beef wellington—is what is said by a fool who has no clue the power of synthesis and adaptation.
>>739821736>>739821524Yea I cant play this shit. I tried the demo the other day and trying to play this on my tv is actually painful. I had to adjust the pixel scaling so the game was just a small box in the middle of the screen. Silly to make a gbc styled game when the gbc screen was like 2" big and assume thats going to look good on a 30" monitor or 50" tv.
>>739816894Pirating the moment gog version drops

>Have to play windowed mode (or deck)>Music is cool but feels like a 30 sec loop>"Soulful gbc game" means soul-like, not only in the gameplay, but also story telling wise/gameplay wise where nobody tells you anythingI looked forward to this game slightly, I'm still disappointed. It's also fucking ironic that, for a game that's basically a souls-like, there are SO MANY difficulty modifiers. And since it's unreadable fullscreen, fuck this shit.
>>739819958guess thats where their budget went
>>739814419Battle kid has an NES version
>>739820450Ironic that people keep shilling this shit.
Why are so many anons saying the game looks bad? What's wrong with GBC styled visuals for a GBC styled game?
>>739823749It's 2026
>>739812798Does it have a CRT shader?
No matter how often leftoid shills try to obfuscate or appeal to triviality, I'm still not giving money to their activist devs"I'm gifting my friend ten copies"You don't have any friends freak :)
Pipistrello is a much better game in every way and I'm mad that it didn't get the same level of hype.
Among other things said in this thread I would also like to state that I fucking HATE the music in this game. Retro music can be so grating and I'm tired of it being brought along for the ride when it is one of the aspects of retro which should have been left in the past. This game could have had some cool atmospheric music and it would instantly be way better.
Why does this game already have a dedicated schizo
>>739823749We're not playing it on a GBC
>>739823749Its ugly even for GBC standards
>>739820150The og GBC zelda looks great because its tileset is simple and designed for the Game Boy’s low resolution. Too many colors and detailed patterns make tiles harder to read and more tiring on the eyes.
>>739816894Didn't know that. I'm gonna pass on this one.
>>739823847It wouldn't be so bad if this didn't feel like a 30s loop of the same catchy song.
>>739821371>>739820150yeah and that is just art, right? It is objectively uglier gtfo
it's not even real pixel graphics, sprites and text can scroll around smoothly without respecting the low resolution coordinate grid
>>739823625They added them after the demo reaction wasn't 100 percent glowing praise and it was too late to actually change anything.
Is there any way to burrow without jumping first?
>>739824079Unless there's a trinkent for it, no. Have fun!
>>739821587Yeah, on a GBC. Not on 24" or 27" monitor in 2026 with a 1080P+ resolution.They really should have made filters. Did they just beta test their game on steam decks exclusively or what? How come nobody took ONE look at this and just said>It's so bad it makes my eyes bleed
>>739820219>The real difficulty is that you can literally have a full stack of potions and not be able to heal any of your health until you smack enemies. Devious little mechanic.There's a trinket you get in the swamp area that acts like a sub tank and lets you build up a heal even at full health. It makes the healing system way more forgiving.
>>739823903So your argument reduces to "we should have stayed at 8-bit graphics"?
>>739821961Alundra is the only good Zelda gameWhat gameplay changes did Working Designs make to that anyway? I don't remember it being unreasonably hard or tedious like how they fucked up a lot of games
>>739823834Just downloaded it to check, I don't see it, sadly. May try reshade later. The opening movie looked amazing even fullscreen. Vsync does not come with unbearable input lag like Hollow Knight and Silksong.
Im just so tired of nostalgiabait and soulslike wankI desperately want to support non-established franchise games, I desperately want to support singleplayer games, I desperately want to support finite-playthrough not endless-skinnerbox games, I desperately want to support non-procedural handcrafted games... but I end up disappointed every single time. Surely there is more you can express than 'hey remember this other thing? if you like it play this bootleg version of it'
>>739816602>I'm 2 hours in and the game's still bad and I'm going to uninstall itunfathomably basedYacht Club hasn't released anything of quality since 2017
>>739824261That exists in tons of indie, even AAA as recently as Pragmata. Wtf are you crying about? Oh.

>>739824125>Have fun!I'm trying but I think I'm just getting filtered.I'll be the first to admit that I'm shit at video games but it feels really frustrating that I can't just immediately burrow.Like I apologize for saying this but it just feels clunky
>>739823779Pixelshit comes out every day and it's usually praised. It's an art style at this point so I don't see how it's outdated or ugly
>>739822305>>739822323Thanks, lads. I'll go with Pip. Maybe I'll get Mina down the line when it's like 5 burgers on Loaded.
>>739821368>GBC pixel art does not work on modern monitorsI play many old games, even GB regular ones, with integer scaling and they are still beautiful. get your shit in order.
>>739824458Hope you enjoy it, imo it's brimming with soul
there is pixel art and there is pixel shartthis happens to be the latter
The ads are mocking us........
>>739824079No, but there is a trinket that lets you chain burrowing back-to-back. You have to go to an area south east of the main town to get it.
haha
>>739824261Wahhh, wahhhh, aren't you embarrassed to be a man and posting this? No one is taking anything away from you, you crybaby faggot. There are so many games coming out right now, it's not like retro games are keeping you from playing anything else.
>>739816894You are literally the same type of faggot as the cunts who tried review bombing Factorio because the devs weren't woke.You're both the two sides of the same shitty coin and I'm tired of pointing this out only for you both to scream "NO THE OTHER SIDE ARE THE REAL BAD GUYS!" Both of you say this shit too.
>>739823847I agree with the complaint about short loops for tracks being unnecessary, but I think you're a faggot for finding retro music "grating." There's a distinct appeal to that particular sound that modern live OSTs cannot replicate.
Mouse sex
>>739824654Ossex*
>>739824574This but unironically Not a single cent for fent floyd sympathisers
why is this game attracting so many shitposters and schizos? is it literally just because of yacht club donating to BLM that one time or whatever the fuck? is it anti-soulslike schizos?why are you people here?
>>739823878Oracle of Seasons...sovl...
I mean its okay but there is a lot of very questionable creative decisions. Im simultaneously enjoying it and disappointed
>>739824613Yeah and it's a style that's been done to death, *especially* when it isn't done well. Sure there will obviously be examples of retro music done well (https://youtu.be/-rf4msm13vc) but by and large it is not and imo feels like it gets a pass just because it's "retro". I agree my post was probably a bit to harsh on the retro sound though you're right
>anons are shilling baby games because they can't handle any difficulty and ate trying to distract by blaming the graphics and music This thread is a dad gamer group therapy session, lmao
>>739824697that and souls fatiguedoesn't help that yacht club made a big deal about the game needing to succeed for them to survive
>>739822220it's definitely not good, especially considering that they're apparently completely and utterly out of money and need this to be a success
>>739824167huh, no? My argument is that if they wanted to emulate the GBC zelda style, they should’ve either used simpler tiles with less colors or increased the resolution so the enlarged pixels wouldn’t feel so cluttered.
Jesus Christ I died like 5 times to the first boss and I'm a legit god gamer with a huge cock.There is no way they don't fix the full fucking second you hang in the air like a retard before burrowing. Even Team Cherry bent the knee to skillissuefags.
>>739824697Because most of the issues the game has can be spotted by anyone playing it for 5 minutes.>Music looping>No filter for big screen>Very clunky gameplayBut the most egregious of all>Game sold as a GBC game love letter is, in fact, a souls-like game
>>739818745cant you just pirate it?

I agree, but if the game is good enough I'll still play it)>It's /v/ and it's a new game in general>Old 8 bit style art (people are getting bored of the fake retro look)>It's furry bait (DISGUSTING)So yeah, if you want to discuss it here ever then good luck.
>>739824836I beat silksongMina is shitWhat now?
>>739824408I was being sarcastic. It's ass.
>>739824957don't respond to that bait post
>>739824212damage sponge enemies I think when the game isnt supposed to have hard combat just hard puzzles
These 6 are better.
>>739824957install boss rush mod and jerk off to hornet getting fucked by sinners road's roaches
>>739818836so far it seems focused on action, more similar to Seasons rather than the puzzle focus of Ages I guess?
>>739823057You've got it ass backwards and maybe we shouldn't have been hyping burgers and throwing them on every menu.
>>739824952The art is not only bad, it's just difficult to read fullscreen on any PC monitor released in the last decade. That's something you can instantly see in the first five minutes of playing the game.It's BAD, no other word. It's a game made only for Steam Deck.
>>739825000top right crosses the line into plagiarism. is that allowed on steam?
>>739824906>Even Team Cherry bent the knee to skillissuefags.They probably added the handicap shit after seeing the Silksong reception. Probably what the delay was for.
>>739824595It's a botpost anon
I recommend people to read the manual in the options before playing, it is structured like manuals for GP games used to be and explains a lot of the mechanics that the game never does.>>739825042No idea what this git is going on about. Looks fine on my end, then again I think 4k monitors are a waste of money.
>>739824130Don't worry, I hear DLSS 5 support is on the way
>>739824906Skill issue, I died once and then figured out how to burrow. But you are a disingenuous TORtanic fag anyways.
>>739818836If you're looking for Zelda I would say play Pipistrello if you haven't. If you've already played Pipistrello I would say it's a 50/50 whether or not you like Mina. Based on the artstyle I figured it would be more akin to Zelda but it feels more akin to Souls games which I find disappointing
>>739820150I think the screen size is more irritating. Every pixel is blown up 16 times or so. Couldn't they simply show more at the same time so the game wouldn't look this ugly?
>>739825098Steam is filled with plagiarism. If a dev wants to have the same trees as Zelda, they'll get away with it.
Yeah I just wanted more classic zelda goodness, not a gbc soulslite.
>>739824906I died once there. apparently you must play it like dark souls.. souls fatigue might hit me on this one
>>739825000that castaway game looked neat but then I found out its only 40 minutes long?!
They are way too late to the soulslike wankfest. The genre is so oversaturated and done to death at this point. Its been 17 fucking years ffs, give it a fucking break. My interested dropped into the negative as soon as i learned it was soulslike trash.
mess of a game. it doesnt know what it wants to be
>>739825174>No idea what this git is going on about. Looks fine on my end, then again I think 4k monitors are a waste of money.I'm not an exception, I've read a lot of people commenting about how they can't play the game on a big monitor. It doesn't need to be a 4K monitor. 1440P, 1080P... >GBC : 160 x 144P ; 4.4 x 4 cmThis is the artstyle they've recreated (well it's 16:9 and not 4:3, but you get it), and that doesn't work on a modern pc monitor the way they did it: bare.Just look at this screenshot, this is already a billion times better because of a simple CRT filter. >>739825282
>>739825479It's as good as mixtape. what did you expect? HEHEHEHEHEHE
Why is Soulslike bad? You can just turn off the corpse runback.
>>739825225Kek, why are you seething at one of the few people on here who bothered to actually play the game? Angry little faggot.Ironically, the second boss was way easier than the first. Felt much more friendly towards how long it takes you to get into the fucking ground.
>>739825447game devs learning about dodge iframes is the worst thing to happen to gaming
>>739825557It's not necessarily bad it's just not what anyone was expecting this game to be based off how it looks. At least that's the case for me
>>739825282https://store.steampowered.com/app/2873860/Sudoku_Acres/
>>739825282>scanlines>every fucking sprite is at a different resolution
>forced to use the jump before you can dig to dodge attacks
>>739825646It's an indie game, that's automatically a 50/50 chance between being a soulslike or a roguelike.
>>739825931you know what that's a good point anon
I think it doesn't look great fullscreen either so I just put it in windowed mode. Not really a big deal to me.Trying Reshade for CRT Shaders, this is the very first one available, did no tweaking, I already like how it looks.
>>739825643It wouldn't be so bad in this case if you could just dodge instantly instead of having what is essentially a long wind up.
>>739817750Because yacht club games donated a lot of their money to organizations like black lives matter, which probably contributed somewhat to their poorr financial situation. Ideally you'd want the money you pay for games to go towards making more games that you'll enjoy. Not going to controversial political things.
>>739825994Tried CRT Royale, looks bad with default settings and I'm too stupid to customize it, so discarded.
hated the demo when it came outsaw someone (probably a shill) say that it doesn't feel like dogshit to play anymoreany truth to that? worth a pirate?
>>739825994
>>739826079Not that I'm defending the donation but I thought it was only like 20k
>>739826114KEK
>>739826141I don't think the amount is the important part, the fact that the company made the donation is
Trying to actually position yourself so you can hit fast enemies is so fucking ass. You should be able to lock direction and strafe like you can in the 2D Zeldas. I know the hammer can kinda do that with the charge attack rolling but that's awkward too.
>>739826079You faggots gargle George Floyd's cock more than the lefties the way you have a melty every time BLM is mentioned. You're so bitchmade he's raping you from the grave. Get over it and come out of the closet.
>screenshots posted on /v/irgin look prertty ass>It might not be as bad in game, I'm sure>it's just as badfuc
>>739824798I do get what you mean, I've certainly played my share of retro games with bad or otherwise forgettable OSTs. I think it's just another case of 99% of everything being shit, though.
>>739823864that's how you know it's good, bad games only inspire apathy, not seething assblastery
>walk slower when you go up stairs in a top down gameI hate this. From a gameplay perspective, what exactly does it accomplish
you had one job: make a good indie top down zeldayou failed
>>739826109Pirating is free retard. Try it yourself or don't.
>>739826316It's weird cus the pixel art itself is mostly not bad but it's all put together in a way that is just not visually appealing
>>739820649>>739820715seriously, this is some of the most desperate, inorganic anti-shilling i've seen on this site. what is it about a retro cartoon mouse game that makes these people foam at the mouth?
>>739824940But that would imply the game is good.If it's not good, why pirate it?
>>739812798it actually plays pretty well for a LA clone but why does every game have to be dark souls?
>>739826492Nah it's good
>>739826493game is free but my time is still valuable
>>739826559It's AI or a bot. The reddit spacing gives it away.
These stupid fucking niggers are going to remove the 2 stupid fucking seconds it takes to "hollow" into the stupid fucking ground or I'm finna gonna lose my shit. They're game is FAILING because of this. Goddamn fucking morons.
>>739826651You're on /v/. Your time isn't worth shit.
>>739816894yikes, pass. may pirate though
This is kinda hard to play with the Switch 2 joycon "dpad" but I want to play in handhold mode
Yep, I knew it. Since the demo came out I fucking knew that the primary complaint was going to be about the digging. It doesn't function exactly like a dodge roll so people have no idea what to do with it. This is the modern audience.
>>739826823I know what to do with it. Refund.
>>739825098I'm sure nintendo already tried to copyright a specific way to draw trees
This is basically tearscape but looks and plays so much better
Everyone is going to get filtered by this game before I even get around to playing it. No one posts gameplay webms or anything any more. This board is so shit and dead.
>>739827019First time?
>>739825994Increased brightness a little and I think that's enough for me. Tried a bunch of other shaders ported from retroarch to reshade but I couldn't get any of them to look good enough for me.
>>739826284You can strafe if you hold attack while moving around with the other weapons. I do wish there was an option for a dedicated strafe button.
>>739827019This shit is actually ass to look at and play on any normal pc monitor. And people looked forward to Zelda gameplay, what did we got? A shitty souls-like. Wow.
someone teach me how to apply crt filters the raw graphics are giving me eye cancer
>>739826823Maybe they just fucked up man.
>>739827068No, for like the past 5+ years I've been the one primarily posting webms for new games like this, so it's not surprising. What is surprising is that things have gotten so incredibly bad that retards are shilling arpgs in here. Every avenue of discussion has been rapefugee'd by asmongold tier retards. I think it's genuinely over for this place.
>>739827019People who have actually been playing the game can't figure out basic dodging. Pretty based that they didn't "fix" it from the demo. It seems to actually be upsetting people given all the shitposting.
>>739827170>pc monitor Not my problem. Im on handheld.
How do I leave the room where I dug down into it? There was like some knight and there's a white hole indicating where I came from, but I can't seem to leave that way, or any other way
>>739827203>I shouldn't have to learn how to play a game
>>739827130Definitely agree on strafe button. Left trigger would be perfect for it. I guess it wouldn't be "true retro" though.
>>739827315Maybe they should've done a better job implementing it.
>>739827195Install reshade, press Home when you boot up the game, check AdvancedCRT, you can mess with the settings if you want. The best settings will vary depending on your resolution and monitor so no use just asking for other people's settings, sadly. But I suggest increasing the brightness to around 2.0 as a baseline.
>>739827315Games should be fun to learn how to play, maybe the dig dodge just isn't fun
>>739827130You can bind attack on two buttons. Then you can use shoulder button as strafe for sword and whip.
>>739827019/vg/ is for talking about vidya, /v/ is just polslop
Is the game good?
>>739827019Making webms is annoying for a first playthrough, detracts from playing and discussing it, imo. I only ever do that on repeated playthroughs.
>>739827442thanks
>>739814419Alwa has a NES version. It's outright better than the windows version too.
>>739827313Oh you leap when you go off a ledge, I see.
>>739827503>Making webms is annoying for a first playthrough, detracts from playing and discussingJust press the record button on OBS, what do you mean lol? MPV even has a script to churn out webms in 2 seconds.
>>739825557Turning it off disables the achievements.
>>739826823>look at me I like awkward dogshit mechanics aren't I so interesting guys???>just adapt bro!!!What a disgusting, dishonest black gorilla nigger you are. You honestly need to kill yourself NOW.
>>739826618It was either that or rogueshite. Those are the only two games indies can make.
>>739827450>can even hit the other button to attack while strafingDamn, this is great, thanks for the tip. I didn't think you could do that because you're not directly prompted, but you can just press both buttons at once and it'll map both.
>>739824340You've been talking about these fucking statues for weeks now. Literally using the same exact language. Why the fuck did this game in particular attract such autistic schizos?
>>739825625I had the exact same fuckin experience! Four times on the first boss until I said fuck it and three all my knives at him. Second boss, Thorn, first try. It took me way too long to realize burrowing dodges most enemy attacks.
>>739816894blm dev :3
>>739827796That's pretty much the same experience I had back in Octobers demo.Good to see they fixed absolutely nothing, great use of time.
>>739827724Yeah lucky i tested it. I assume this workaround does not help with all weapons, as with hammer you will be in charging state. They definitely need strafe button, as otherwise is super akward to fight some fucking bats that come up to your face constantly.
I played the demo like a year ago and hated how I'd lose all of my money upon death(because I suck, ok?), did they fix that?
oh, found an issue with AdvancedCRT, the reflections update in longer refreshes, so it looks choppier while they scroll smoothly with no shaders. Dang, gotta find an alternative now.
>>739827019Okay, well first, you're a freak for demanding webms because games are meant to be played, not watched. Go play a demo.Secondly this game is shit anyway so I don't have a webm for it.But if you want a webm so badly, here's one I have from a game that came out two days ago. It doesn't really do the game justice though, because the scene has some original Heavy Metal Swedish Scream music that bursts in and plays during this boss battle segment.
>>739828013You can shut it off and play baby journalist mode, yes. However, you will not get achievements, as you did not achieve anything.
>>739828013
>>739828013It is pretty brutal. There are options to make it easier but it disables feats.
>>739828060>posts a webm of a cutscene>this game is comf kino!!!LMAO THIS BOARD IS SO COOKED
>>739828095I'm sorry but I'm not going to play a game that doesn't respect my time. I'm just not!
I heard you like dodge-roll Soulslikes
>>739828201I know people say this here ironically, but what does it mean when someone says game doen't respect your time? Isn't the whole premise with games to kill time?
>>739823127>Look it up>Fat ugly bastardbleh
>>739827796The problem is the first boss does literally nothing but effortlessly close the distance and take giant swings at you, fucking painful to learn hollow timing against. I can easily see normies getting demolished over & over without even getting a hit in and getting fed up right there. Yacht Club are some dumb ass negroes.
>>739827905What weapon are you using? I went unga bunga with the hammer and I think I regret it, might start a new file to switch.
The shitter seethe is great. This game is too difficult for elden ring dad gamers but they don't want to admit it. Just cope buzzwords like "clunky" and "awkward" >I still got it! Sure you do...
Just started, first level theme is a bop, couldn’t get the image of mina dancing along with it as it goes out of my head so I made this
>>739816894Holy SHIT. Every FUCKING thread with you fucking idiots.>blm dev>i'll just donate direct to blm>reminder they donated to blm!>blm :(>not buying, they donated to blmShut the every loving fuck up.
>>739828559Ok.Let's instead talk about how the digging and visuals are both ass.
>>739828635Looks great to me. HD2D also looks great BTW! :)
>>739828521This happens here with all games with challenge. Its typical to blame everything but yourself. For me the biggest mystery is why people who don't like challenge play hard games to begin with? I think that is where their "street cred" narrative comes in. Autistically you can't comprehend why someone likes hard games when you do not.
>>739828696In this case a lot of people are going in blind just expecting a Zelda like and well it's not. Same reaction happened back in October.
>>739827773Because it pisses you off and people are tired of your little american tantrums you fag
>>739828926That is fair. I didn't know what to expect, i just assumed its just a style choice and it would be more like top down castlevania.
Has the gameplay changed in any meaningful way from the demo?
>>739824853Considering this is just PC, it still seems fine enough to recoup the costs in the long term, it doesnt have an explosive start like sts2, but it will eventually grow up the numbers.The question is, will those numbers come faster than the bills, and, will "breaking even" be enough to get someone to fund their future endeavors
Reminder that if you played with anything that disables feats, you did not beat the game.
>>739823127Really boring logo desu. They should have put Mina's mouse tits for more sales. Worked for Silksong after all.
>>739829237If they are not knees deep in depth then they can flip this if they actually start making games. Like right now.
oh, i didn't realise it released so early since i just woke up. Shame to see the thread in this state, there's only 58 images and almost none of it is in game stuff
>>739824952>>It's furry bait (DISGUSTING)STFU clown. /v/ loves games like CaveStory
I started with the daggers. made a new save with the whip and I think I like it more. what is everyone's favorite weapon so far?
>>739826994Is this the only tearscape screenshot that exists? It's the only one posted on this board
>>739829503The whip is great. Since there's a weapon's chest in the underlab, it's probably possible to get all the weapons during the playthrough.
>>739829396There was more posting during release, but 30% was furries, 50% blm.
>>739829571huh I just got a random one off steam community
>>739819728>Is there a gay in it or something?yeah pretty sure I ran into a fag asking you to find his lost lover and I was only like an hour and a half into the game.
>>739829630I swear that spider boss screenshot is posted every time someone talks about Tearscape
>>739829571most people don't even bother to take their own screenshots anymore, they just grab a random one from the steam page
>>739828427If Ys Felghana or RE4 released today, baby gamers would piss themselves in rage at the game forcing them to learn how to play in the first minutes.Reminder RE4 throws you into a fucking blender before you even have a chance to learn all the controls.
>>739823846Convince me to pirate this
Is there a torrent for this? The only one on pirate bay says "torrent does not exsist"
>>739829724I think you could use a better example than OG RE4.
>>739829195No. But now you can cheat.
>>739820278did you draw this?
Yacth's biggest problem right now is the indie market today is vastly different and far more competitive than the time they put out Shovel Knight.
>>739824697It's a good game, therefor the easiest way to farm (you)s is to say it's bad
>>739828521My favorite shitter buzzword is "unfun"
>>739828427>OH MY GOD WHY IS THE FIRST BOSS EASY
>>739828559>JUST IGNORE WHAT HAPPENED GOY>CONSUME SLOP NOWNo.Game seems to have bombed anyway, good fucking riddance.
Can someone take the statue head from outside the crypt dungeon and throw it on that skeleton with the red cape for me between the two stairwells at like the halfway point of the dungeon?I have an inkling that unlocks something, but it seems like a pain in the ass to do and I don't feel like lugging that thing through the whole dungeon to find out I'm wrong.
>>739830068That is true, also bigger. Shovel knight treasure trove all time high is like only 2000 players on steam. Its funny to think that they made super influental game but today minas 8000 player count is niche.
>>739826982>PokemonSwordTree.png
I bought the game because I support BLM but it suck, hollow knight was much better
I love cute mousie girls. I love Link's Awakening. Gonna buy.

I was gonna buy this if the reception was good, but it looks like it's flopping, kind of a shameRIP Yacht ClubGuess I'll finish my playthrough of Day of the Tentacle
movement feels shitty, reached the first boss and I guess the game wants me to use borrowing as dodge except I have to use it preemptively
>7 threadswhat the fuck are you doing
>>739830632one of the NPCs in town (can't remember if it was in the tailor's shop or the train station) mentioned something about someone or other with their cape, and I think that's whoever it was. If no one figures it out by the end of the day, I'll go back and try it.
>>739830804yeah, that same guy is in the crypt dungeon too and mentions it again. I wonder if it's just a random high level kickstarter backer or something
>>739830772Sorry, quite opposite if you compare to their previous games.
>>739817586Yeah.
heh
I have to wonder if Mina will get the same sort of long term support that Shovel Knight did where buying the $20 game early on meant you got the entire Treasure Trove of expansions for free years later. Do they have any plans to roll out additional content? Also, any of you fags with Humble Choice/Monthly discounts, go buy it there - its 20% cheaper.
>>739831080Shovel knight had those as strech goals. As you are aware they are bankrupt, so they are not likely to develop free content.
>>739821714>>739822051Pretty much this. Especially when it seems all the palettes except the original mean flattening the color/aesthetic. ZeroRanger and some of the others kept the same depth and variation with alternate colors, not reducing the colors available to varying shades of gray, blue, etc.
>>739830794Schadenfreude is a hell of a drug.
>>739831080I don't expect this to get any DLC expansions, especially free ones. Game is already cheaper than Shovel Knight was before they added the extra campaigns. Maybe some challenge/boss rush thing if it doesn't have one already, but that's about it.
>>739831080If Yacht Club somehow manages to limp through this intact they're going to immediately throw people on Shovel Knight DX and whatever was started on Shovel Knight 64.
>>739827665A gorilla nigger would chimp out, especially when confronted with change or forced to think.Kinda like you.
>>739814419they do that all the time you buttholexeno crisisdragonhymdeadeusjackie chan
I've played it for 3 hours and while I'm still new at it I just don't think this dig/dodge move is ever going to feel good during combat. It's either a complete crapshoot whether or it's way too broken with no in-between. Fighting the first boss Thorne was really easy but then you get combo'd by regular enemies in awkward layouts during regular gameplay.

If shovel knight were released today he'd have a dodge roll or a parry, possibly both.

>you can hold the attack button to lock your facing directionThis wasn't in the demo, right?
>No banner on steamIts fucking over bros
>>739833426DX is the version they announced like 2 years ago. It's just Shovel of Hope with more shit in it.
>>739817858Is Shantae actually a good game?
I don't get what exactly is soulslike about this game so far. But I only killed one boss and didn't progress further north because I'm trying this dungeon south first and it's kinda difficult.You don't even get a dodge roll full of iframes, is it just the corpse run?
>>739833429it's a 2D action game. it isn't anything like Rogue
Fuck, I forgot about the Humble discount.
>>739833426Way to go not putting this one on sale too like all the Shovel Knight games. Fuck. I know they only published but still they get some cut I'm sure. I wonder if the dev is working on anything else. >>739833563Ah yeah that's right. It should't take too long I imagine. If they're going to bother with a DX that has multiplayer and "20 characters". I really fucking hope that they make it so that unlocking them and playing as them means it changes the story, rather than having no real change from the baseline game except you can play as Black Knight or whatever the fuck but its all still treated as Shovel from a story standpoint.

>>739833724>ClassFucking tourist. It's called a job.
>>739833706>Way to go not putting this one on sale too like all the Shovel Knight games.I'm surprised they didn't at least have a Mina+ShovelKnight bundle to try and squeeze another $10-15 out of people.
>>739827469>/vg/ is for talking about vidya
>>739833691the GoG discount is betternot that I advise purchasing this game. but if you're gonna buy it, buy it on gog
>>739816894I CANT CHEESE!
>>739826079nobody cares weirdo
>>739833614Digging is your dodge roll.
>>739814419Try Full Quiet, pretty fun modern NES game
>>739827019only just for you, nonny. yes, I beat this first try. I'm a gamer like that
Guess the game has some backtracking for collectibles at some point. Here's to hoping it has some quick-tarvel mechanic later.Not really big on the lack of quick-burrow to better dodge shit.
>>739834179I care faggot. Cope and seethe.
>>739831817The fact that you have to jump to burrow makes it hard to use in many situations. I got frustrated trying to deal with all the flying enemies coming at you when you are on small moving platform. You need to move with the platform but face the enemy while jump attacking, and if they are already in your face jumping makes you take damage. So in situation where flying enemy is on your face you don't have options.
I'm 2 hours in so far and the game is really good. /v/ really does just hate everything
>>739834242Not really, it can't low profile every single attack. You use to reposition or to low profile attacks that can be low profiled, it's not a universal iframe button.It's very clear because you can't use it to avoid the very first enemy in the cinematic intro.
>>739834336Damn, hammer generates a ton of plasma. Makes sense with it being so slow.
>>739812798>Hammer is STILL the best weaponbest or most fun?
Any reason not to convert stones into bone?
Minabros...we won
>>739834395I like having to jump first, makes it so you have to react to to the enemy's tell, not just the attack animation.
>>739834336I also beat this boss first try but have since refunded. Rewatching this gameplay I get the feeling that this game might have been more fun if projectiles or range of some sort was your main weapon but maybe I have no idea what I'm talking about. Of course this is just one enemy out of the entire game
>>739834894You don't lose stones on death, no reason to convert if you're not gonna use them right now.
>>739834949Whip has pretty good range.
>>739834949The town opens up literally right after that fight and has a blacksmith that's selling a ranged main weapon. Pathetic larper
>>739819891>>now you can't get it back because you have to kill themSo that's on par with the rune mechanic from 7th saga - if you fight an apprentice and lose, they steal all your runes. So not only do you have to somehow get back to where they are without your runes, english versions basically btfo you because of the stat gain adjustment, so you can either reset and potentially lose hours of progress, or potentially be entirely fucked because npc gear is based on your level.
>>739835090What type of weapon is it? Maybe I wasn't specific enough but I was imagining (based off that webm combat) turning the combat into a twin stick shooter type of thing. I said projectiles because maybe it could have a slow rate of fire so it isn't just a straight up shooter
>>739819772Subweapon ammo
>>739812798bottom left is the wrong shade of green, it should be duller than that.
>>739834935It also means though that every boss will now need a 1.5-2s long tell to give you enough time to either position for a jump, or a jump+dig.
>>739817736>>739817630Isn't that the Octopath clone?
Those actually playing the game: Is it good? I love classic zelda. Is it challenging?Hard to get a straight answer since half the board is having a meltdown over this game
>>739819728I just don't like Game Boy games that much, so i'm skeptical of how well its being reviewed.
>>739834829never played demo, but that's a revolver on a hammer. quick side step while charging is kinda cool. raping mina webm down to 4mb is more annoying than skong albeit
>>739833706Given what we know now it was probably intended as a quick cash grab since Minas development was burning money.I doubt they'll do much more than just dump showdown characters in shovel of Hope and hope for the best. Assuming they ever finish it.
>>739824130Im having great fun playing it on my ROG Ally X with the 7" screen. Feels like being a kid again playing Oracle of Ages on my GBC.
>>739835487it's really good! It's also actuallt challenging but it doesn't feel unfair, ignore the melties
Alright, I take back every bad thing I ever said about the daggers. They have a rough start but feel great once you unlock the dash slash and get a few attack upgrades. Plus they synergize well with fly bait and tumbling codex. Then again, tumbling codex just makes the game feel 10 times better anyway.
>>739833373>*FtM husbandftfy
I'm going to fucking killyself.
>>739835659is codex the one that lets you keep digging by just holding the button? I haven't gotten that yet and my sole critique of the game rn is that locking that behind a trinket is really dumb
just beat the mini boss here, i died once because i kept jumping into his swings like a retard. kinda wish i picked the whip instead, i seemed to whiff dagger swings a bit on this boss but maybe just a skill issue
>>739835642I like challenges. Do you think it'll have much replay value? Challenge runs and such?
>>739835810easily yes.seems to be constructed with speed/challenge runners in mind
>>739834395>quick travelI heard people talking about Yatzee giving a helpful tip in his video that the game is basically designed to 'hide' the quick travel from you unless you know ahead of time>Mirrors are the quick travel system>however, to activate them it takes pushing into them like trying to move a 2d Zelda gravestone or armor suit, pushing into them for a second. It will appear not to work as you walk into the wall, until eventually you pass through Unless they fixed this in the release version of the game or a patch, some people may not even realize it works from that description anyway.
>>739835487It's good. If you like ALTTP or ALBW you probably like this. The most challenging part is the early game because your health is low and you don't have any upgrades yet. Plus there are several different areas you can take on first, and some are challenging then others.
>>739835578What a fucking waste. I can't see how they'd fuck things up so badly with Mina. They're not going to get a lot of interest back for DX if its a shitty cash grab or "remaster"
The dodge mechanic in this shit was so bad I refunded it. From Software ruined video games honestly.
>>739824853This seems so insane to me. The dev could have just lived rich for the rest of his life, instead he hired a million Californians and wasted his entire fortune in just a couple years.
>>739833373damn, if only she had a human man to console her.
>>739812798Even if I were to ignore the BLM crap, there isn't enough HMOFA art to justify buying a game at release date like a retard.I shan't be buying.
>>739835743>is codex the one that lets you keep digging by just holding the button?Kinda yeah. It lets you chain digs. So instead of jump>dig>land>jump>dig>land you can go jump>dig>dig>dig. You get it by doing a minigame in sifted sand. There are signs outside of Ossex that tell you where to go.>I haven't gotten that yet and my sole critique of the game rn is that locking that behind a trinket is really dumbAgreed. If I ever do another playthrough it's the first thing I'm getting after the starting area. Even back when played the demo last year that was my biggest request.
>>739835487I'm very disappointed by it. Not a bad game by any means but not worth your time and money. the resemblance to classic zeld is mostly surface level from the five or so hours I've played.
Keyboard or controller?
How is the exploration of this game? Is it linear or filled with secrets I can uncover?
>>739836520controller, d-pad
>>739823250Nine Sols only did it for trash. Bosses always had it spawn around where you died. Not sure if Mina follows the same rules on that.3hrs into Mina and I have to say, Nine Sols is undoubtedly a better game.
>>739836520SteamDeck
>>739832749I'd say rollslop is a bad fit for 2D games for more than just nostalgia reasons. Like you've got this crisp 2D pixel art that would allow you to finely move and position your character, but then you throw that all in the background to just focus on dodge timings. Really wastes the advantages of the aesthetic.That being said, like 99% of this thread, I haven't actually played Mina, so maybe it's not that bad here.
>>739836585They're completely different genres of games, what the fuck does one being better than the other mean?
>>739836641One is respectively better at what it was seeking to accomplish than the other.
>>739820007>Silksong>fair>boss explodes in your face then makes you do a tedious runback
>>739836971>>739836971>>739836971
>>739836585>Bosses always had it spawn around where you died.I mean that makes sense, if a game does this on bosses then it would basically mean a guaranteed currency loss unless you two-shot the boss. Which is not normally expected in soulslop-like games, which are also the ones that bother with corpse runs of this sort.I have no idea what Mina does but I hope it's the obvious sane thing.Also Nine Sols had some major PITA special enemies, anything that's not explicitly a miniboss would require a kill and for example the big ninja guys in the early game were brutal
>>739837431>Also Nine Sols had some major PITA special enemiesThat was one of my favourite things about the game. Just special enemies in the wild or off-beaten path that'll kick you shit in after 3-4 hits if you didn't watch their attack patterns to parry.
>>739837792Oh yeah it's definitely awesome, just saying that corpse run-wise, there's some enemies that are nearly as hard as a miniboss but because it's classified as a "regular enemy" the usual rules apply and you have to kill them to get your shit back. I fucking hate corpse runs.
