So i started playing this video game, Mina the Hollower, which was released May 29, 2026. I like the game, but i find it really hard! Do you have similar experiences? I mostly used the daggers and whip.
Are you trying to kill Mina discussion by making OPs obnoxiously low quality on purpose?
what is your true agenda?
When i got the iron steed i basicly made the game play like pizza tower.
We love taking over the schizo's stealth seethe threads!
>>741395397last thread was just fine
>wears a top to cover her breasts>leaves her pussy completely exposed?
>>741395112>I mostly used the daggers and whip.There. There's your issue. The sooner you get used to the hammer the easier you'll have it. Also Uranium bracelet.
>>741395112Yeah it has artificial difficulty called contact damage.Refund the game while you still can.
>>741395410To post cute mice.
The Knives are great, and I'm tired of pretending they aren't
>>741395112Just to make sure that I'm not a giant idiot, you CANNOT change the direction of your hammer swing once you're holding the button, correct?

It took me a little too long to get what a "hollower" was.I thought it was like, a monster killer. But it's literally just that she digs underground? And it has nothing to do with her job of maintaining the generators?Mina the Burrower would be accurate but sounds lame.
>>741398986You can after rolling and double pressing the direction you want to be facing.Also, first time posting in a while. What's witthe fucking captcha? Jesus.
>>741399290What the fuck is this shit?
>>741401914Doesn't the guy in the guild literally tell you?And I know the manual spells it out on the first couple of pages.The Hollowers are a guild that train in physical agility and science in order to manipulate the earth to advance society.
741401914>gachafag is retardedmany such cases
>>741402104Basically they're scientists and park rangers all in one.Though in the case of Mina, she's a Cabela's Dangerous Hunts sort of park ranger.
big news: when the ice rats throw a shuriken their ears flop a little
Oof. These threads are NOT having an easy time staying on the board huh?
>>741395112Only ever used whip + drill and axe.Didn't really much use for anything else once I found other subweapons
>>741403486What do you mean, retard-kun? Mina threads have been hitting bump limit pretty consistently. Maybe just go back to posting "BLM game" instead?
>>741399542this but loner's landingit scratches a certain classic castlevania itch that I've been missing for sometime now
>>741404010Ooh. I see I touched a nerve~
>>741404010Nta but you know you don’t have to reply to every bait post. You’re only justifying the baiting with your reaction and lending credence to their claims by making every other post “lmao [X] seething” instead of mina discussion
>>741404198Your bump and your concession have both been accepted!
>>741404490I tried explaining to him last thread that he's actually just as obnoxious and disruptive as the /pol/tards and driving away actual fans and discussion but he just said through clenched teeth "thanks for the bump!!!!!!" and started posting about how much he hated Mexicans or something. Sadly this game seems to attract the mentally ill like flies to shit.
>>741404494The thread certainly needs the bump! Haha.It is NYAWT hitting bump limit otherwise.
>>741404490highly homosexual post, schizos bumping the threads and getting repeatedly BTFO is great entertainment
>>741404706>>741404886hmmmmm
>>741404706This is sadly just the way it goes when everyone's anonymous. Either it's one or two samefags trying to give the illusion of derailment, or it's a some newfag who thinks egging a troll on is entertaining, expected, or healthy for threads.
>>741405031Mina the Murderer
>>741405062>I will prove I'm not mentally ill by accusing everyone who makes me mad of being the same person!Interesting maneuver. Thanks for the bump I guess. Now could you actually talk about the game instead of just posting AI goonbait and being obnoxious?
I always found a charged hammer hit to be better and more satisfying to hit than spammin dozens of dagger/whip hits to do the same amount of damage. I've been mostly using keyboard though so that probably has something to do with me preferring not to spam attacks until my fingers cramp up.
>>741405451>AI goonbaitAre you even trying?
>>741405602I think the hammer sucks
>>741405602The fact that you can charge it while mid air is what really puts it over the top for me.
Thorne is for...?
How difficult is this? Any replayability?
>>741406909HITTINGWITH A HAMMER
>>741405602The hammer is just so satisfying. Also, in a game where spacing and timing are so important, the weapon with a long reach that can do crazy burst damage is always gonna be king. >>741406932Mildly difficult, it starts decently hard then gets easy once you get a few upgrades then the difficulty ramps up again around the last couple dungeons.Its replayability is probably one of its most notable features, there's a lot of options for customizing the experience and when you beat the game once you unlock a bunch more like randomizers.
>>741406932Its just right, the start is annoying since you have nothing, but it comes with the genre.
>>741406932It's one of those games that makes exploration feel really good but also overpowers you as a result of all the trinkets and upgrades you find.If you like exploring then you won't find the game difficult aside from the first/last dungeon.
>>741406932The replayability is overstated unless you just love randomizers. And even then you're going to end up with a short list of about 8 trinkets you want at least 4 of, then it's a sprint to the end.The game is wonderful during that initial 100% run of exploration. But the way screens are designed with certain enemies and traps, you can't really effectively mix those up solution wise.If you asbsolutely love the base game, every NG+ changes up to NG+7, and lets you level up to NG+13. But once you get to NG+2, it wipes you back down to 0%, so it's just going through the exact same motions with harder enemies.I don't find it to be a greatly replayable game without breaks in between each run. But some people will just do randomizers back to back to back.
>>741405602The hammer is just completely broken compared all the other options. Literally the atomic bomb vs coughing baby.
>>741406909mouse women

What possesses developers to micromanage fun in a SINGLE PLAYER GAME?
>>741395112Mina was caughthttps://files.catbox.moe/3gtgv2.png
>>741408603Autism
>add a billion modifiers to play the game how you want >nerf shit anyway Explain
>>741409153One anon said he was in one of the dev's streams and the dev was complaining that the Generator Core was too easy so I think it's a case of "guys who've been playing Mina the Hollower nonstop for the past 4 years thinks Mina the Hollower is too easy".But maybe the real answer is that this game is so badly cursed that even once it's finished, it's still in development.
>>741408451Genuinely thought the game was cool with how it let you bend it over your knee if you found the right combinations, but now the devs are ironically removing all the fun cheese from a game where the protagonist is a mouse.
>>741409376>the Generator Core was too easyThe final room before Lionel?The most demanding platforming gauntlet combined with medium combat check all while being forced in an autoscroller is too easy?At what point do you just want to piss off the player and make them quit before the finish line?Because I felt that room offered the right amount of pushback to the player as a final skill check without feeling malicious.That sentiment combined with the nonstop nerfs imply to me that they want malicious.
Oof. Haha. This thread needs ANOTHER bump.
>>741406909That one anon apparently
>>741408683that doesn't even look like mina
>>741409376>>741409851Yeah generator core was definitely one of the rooms that felt kinda like bullshit and was beating my ass—which was actually kind of refreshing, since the mid game gets pretty steamrolly once you max all of your levels and trinkets and such>>741409153The Mist Jar + Joule Syringe interaction specifically did kind of just feel like cheating, though, so I can understand why they nerfed it>>741408025I like the little *clink clink clink* sounds the daggers make. Plus them sucking and making the game more difficult actually makes it more fun for me, personally :3
>>741408603The fact that they are listening to the "game too easy" crowd instead of the "game too hard" crowd is based actuallyPeople are just mad that they're going after all the fun stuff instead of genuinely straight up OP shit like the heal speed trinket, which isn't wrong
Mina would only get 206 bones if she ate and digested you... that's not even enough to bone up!
Not a big fan of when they draw her hips too wide
>>741411591I'm glad I finished it before they started nerfing shit. I felt like the difficulty was pretty much perfect. I would have dropped it if the bosses were obnoxious difficulty spikes like so many other modern soulslikes because I can't be bothered with that shit anymore. I really liked that the dungeons themselves are the most challenging part of the game and not the bosses, it was honestly refreshing
>>741395112game is shit. i pirated it and uninstalled this turd.
did the devs manage to recoup the costs or it's over?
I’m thinking of creating a Steam group that lists all the devs (and their games) who have donated to BLM or other leftist causes. This game will be first on the list.
>>741408603Probably because they had a specific vision in mind when they made the game for themselves, and want it to exist in that platonic form
been using the gun this shit is great. you can actually attack diagonally
>>741408603They were micromanaging fun just by the act of developing a game, you dipshit.
Saw the Akira Bike Slide drawing the other thread ago, so i decided to make my own akira mina piece
>>741414834nice anon
>>741414645Staying afloat for a while but with how fast they burn it less than expected.
>>741414834Cool piece
>>741414645It did way bigger numbers than they said they needed so it's probably going well
>>741414834yeah this shit kinda goes hard IDK
I'm "stuck". Found holy those 3 cats in the manor so I guess I can't progress for now.Are the other ones also hidden in the manor, or do I have to backtrack to god knows where to find them?
>>741418139They are all in Radiant Manor.You are never "stuck" or "can't progress."
>>741418139They're not mandatory, they're the same as animals in that one metroid game where they're part of the ending if you find them all. The one hidden in the top left corner in the room with two mimics is propably the hardest to find naturally. Other two challenging ones are the one in the hidden lilypad puzzle and the one in the far right of the part where you jump behind a window and only see a silhouette.
>>741418319Well, I'm currently stuck in the manor. Looks like there's some clue I'm not picking up.
>>741418774How?
>>741418936Nevermind, found the zone I had to explore and thought I already explored.
DOOOOOO DO DOOOODOOO DO DO DO DO DO DO DOOOOOO DO DO
>>741414834Never fully understood the iron steed tbqh
>>741395112I bought this game on launch but have only been able to play 6 hours so far because I’ve been busy with other shit. It’s good, I like it. I did the swamp place first and it was cool. I imagine I would have hated it if I didn’t have the water movement trinket. I will be leaving this thread so I don’t get spoiled but I’m happy there’s been so many threads about it and I hope there’s still threads up when I do finally beat it. Thanks for reading.
>>741398287No, your true agenda
When's the next BLM donation, minatroons?
I'm so glad Mina was a huge success. The checks Yacht Club has been cutting us shills have been juuuicy
>Expected literally anything to happen with the plot>The twist is that there is no twist>The only actual story progression is making you, the player, think mina is an idiot and want the entire island and every single character in the game subjected to a nuclear genocide
>>741400941Oh, that explains why it suddenly seemed useless today
>>741426123
>>741427215Yea, it’s pretty fantastic, wouldn’t you say?
>>741395397>OPs obnoxiously low qualityso the average mina thread
>>741428051cope, macaco
floofed
Silksong probably prepared me but the game felt too easy at times, think the hardest boss for me was the bone beach one but I think that was because I did that earlier than intended. Even got the achive for never losing all my bones with out even trying. The platforming was easy but I went through most of the game with the movement trinkets making it easier than intended.I like the game and hope they do more with the world and Mina
>>741429625Mina..Lay off the vials...
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=58F0bhr2IroIt happened. Someone beat this game in under an hour.
>>741430701You thought Mined Mind was harder than The Congealed?
>>741406909>>741410491hello thats me, thorne is for me :) (and mina she is allowed to have thorne as well because she introduced me to him)
>>741430935Yes, by the time I fought it all the upgrades and especially movement trinkets made boss fights easier
>>741395112The first hour or two are unforgivable, but it forces you to learn how to move and use the dig ability properly. By the time you enter your first big dungeon it'll be easier. Still had hard encounters but you'll know where you fucked up without it feeling unfair.
>>741430881>all those sequence breaks and skips with the fishing pole
>>741432449The fishing rod and the plasma vial break the game wide open. I wasn't even aware you could dash with the plasma vial and then jump, or maybe there's something more complex and time sensitive to it, because when I jumped and did a plasma vial dash I could clear three tiles tops and the timing for that was tight.
>>741418139There's only 1 I had to look up:There's a single tile of destructible wall in the cellar with the two grabby monsters
>>741395112Kys furry freak.No matter how much effort you and your troon discord put into astroturfing, this shitty game is dead and forgotten.
Cozy squeaker...
this game made me bisexual for cute mouse girls
>>741436160>wearing clothes in a bathDumb mouse, now they're going to be drenched and weighing you down.
Should I just do the Astral observatory or keep trying to find all the stuff I missed?
How am I supposed to get their puke and give it to that NPC?
>>741436908you use the trinket that makes mina create acid pool when she burrows
>>741395112Sponsored thread
>>741436908You have to make your own puke.
>>741436908**{Look for a trinket in kindlewood}**
>>741436790The astral orrery isn't the last area of the gamealso you can always "go back to find stuff", the game never locks you anywhere, even after beating the final boss
>>741437129>**{what the fuck program/website uses this as a spoiler tag
>>741432137I remember getting to the back waters the first time, feeling stuck because I was surrounded by water with no way out then figuring out you can borrow in water but not swim. Reminded me of Tunic a bit.Similar thing with burrowing under the flower jumps which I found out in that cave with a ton of them.
>>741436975Is that what I did? I thought I just used a vial next to him. I guess I still had the organ equipped for making Gourdan taste me.
>>741395112I played the demo some time ago and thought jt was absolutely boring. Does it get better beyond the demo point?
>>741437978No, using a vial is for that NPC on the pic, he means other NPC in the same town.
>>741438175oh, gotcha
>>741437994It gets harder and you get some more toys to play with obviously, but it's not a metroidvania so the fundamental experience of the game is exactly the same the entire way through
>>741437994If the idea of a new Link's Awakening DX with new mechanics doesn't get you excited, don't bother. You clearly aren't the audience.
>>741395112I feel this game has a good level design and difficulty, but honestly it can be any other retro-zelda game or castlevania-like game. It's for a niche of retro-players and it's a GOOD game, but it seems like any other game, nothing new, nothing fresh, nothing that makes me (or someone else) say "hey that's interesting, i'm gonna play it".Again, i'm not throwing shit to the game, it seems good and can be fun, but to me it's just another retro-like game that you can play on a SEGA machine like any other game from the times this game tries to replicate.
>>741437994The demo is honestly a really bad representation of the game.
>>741437994If you liked oracle of seasons/ages you will probably like the overall game, however I have a few friends who hate this style of game so it's not for them
>>741438309>a new Link's Awakening DX with new mechanicsI wish this shit was designed like a zelda game, it's isometric castlevania levels stitched into an open world
>>741438449It's totally fresh, what do you even mean? It didn't reinvent progression through a mostly linear game, but the area gimmicks are creative and new, and the core jump-dig dynamic is something I've definitely not ever seen. What could this game even do for you? Are you not just being a cynical adult realizing you'll never recapture your wonder of youth through a game?
>>741438309It's not really "zelda" at all other than the graphical style copying GB zelda games.>no permanent items that grant access to new areas; majority of the secrets and collectibles can be picked up at any time>game is mostly non-linear, you can do the five main areas in any order
>>741438561
>>741438715nah, it feels like any other old game from his genre, sorry. It's okay tho, doesn't mean it's a bad game.
>>741438537>>741438720>"ERM IT DOESN'T GATE AREAS BEHIND ITEMS SO IT'S TECHNICALLY NOT ZELDA!"I do not give a shit. The game is clearly designed with explicit 2D Zelda mechanics. Pits, ledges, liftable objects, even the little chain chomp on a leash made it in. You are splitting hairs that it doesn't gate the same, and that's definitely not the most important thing unless your only goal is to point out genre.
>>741438842It feels explicitly like a GBC Zelda, and that's the intent. That's not "any other game." That's a specific game.
>>741430937>me in every boss fight after I get the funnel and vial pouch
>>741438887>>>"ERM IT DOESN'T GATE AREAS BEHIND ITEMS SO IT'S TECHNICALLY NOT ZELDA!"Yes.Getting new items that unlock access to new parts of the world is one of the core features of Zelda games, and it is completely missing here.The "zelda inspiration" is almost entirely the graphics.
>>741438931I guess? it has some vibes from old final fantasy tho in some designs and places, I know that the game takes a lot of inspiration on old Zeldas, but a lot of games did that too inb4 kek
>>741438979Don't care. The closest parallel to any other game is GBC Zelda and it's not subtle. It's clearly the core behind the design, only avoiding comparison from autismos because you don't need to grab the roc's feather so you can access dungeon #2
>>741439017anyways I think it will wins the indie GOTY because it's really good as a game, even when I find it boring as a concept. I'm 99% sure that it will win something
>>741438939wtf why did thorne steal mina's glasses
>>741439078>The closest parallel to any other game is GBC ZeldaGraphically, yes. Gameplay-wise, no.
>>741439090it has a chance due to being a yatch club game, otherwise it would likely not even get a nomination because the game awards are just rigged>>741439143nta but besides the item thing, the gameplay is pretty close to LA if you had a dedicated button for the roc's featheryou can even get a weapon that works just like link's sword
>>741438979Everything about how the game calculates the player's position, hopping down ledges, falling into pits, even swinging some of her weapons works just like Link's Awakening or Oracles. Several items and mechanics borrow from those games too, and they aren't subtle.>B-BUT MUH GATINGdoesn't matter.
>>741439201come on, it's an amazing game to show on game awards. Also, I don't play too much indie games today so this one and Mixtape are the only ones I have seen, of course, we have 4 months until the awards but what are they gonna nominate?, this game will fight for the title, i'm sure about that.It is good, it looks nice, and it has people who find it fun to play, it's that easy.
>>741439090It's probably going to be my personal GOTY, anyways. Been waiting a long time for this and it had the level of polish I expected from YC.
>>741430937mouse belly...
>>741439492Mousey tum................
>>741439401Same, King Knight DLC was my previous favorite game from them but this takes it now
>>741395112Maybe take a break?
>>741439819The key to being a well rounded gamer is to have multiple games of different genres in your rotation. When I was 100%ing Mina, I was also playing Pokopia on the side. That said, Mina isn't really that hard even without activating any modifiers.
>>741439332likts 2 thousand people total played it anon. its not winning anything. also who gives a fuck about that faggots game show
>>741440076it sold 500k+ copies retard
>>741440076please, read what I wrote...I said it's going to be NOMINATED, not win, I say it WILL FIGHT for the prize. There is a WHOLE category of indie games and there is ONLY TWO indie games that are making noise...
>>741440194>all time peak>8,760grim
>>741439992>That said, Mina isn't really that hard even without activating any modifiers.Yeah, the game gives you a bunch of basically cheat items (trinkets) that trivialize most challenges when used at the right time. You'll only be as challenged as you want to be, if you neglect using them.
>>741439992rotation gaming is a good idea, make it a timer, once 2 hour mark comes up, finish up what you are doing on that game and then go to the other game. circuit gaming basically.
>>741440360ahh the FFXVI approach. interesting idea. almost as interesting as>what if zelda was.... a le-souls-like?!?! :O
>>741440339oh no... what is my yacht club gonna say when they find out??!?!!?!?
>>741440339Damn, guess the multiplayer will die out
>>741440194Yeah, and the director was still whining that it wasn't selling more because they're desperately low on cash and decided to spend 6 years making a game boy color game.
>>741440465Both Shovel Knight and Hollow Knight made souls mechanics work for them, so I don't mind. Punish players for sucking, but with a small safety net.
Mouse/Bat baby hybrids…
>>741441190and basically every other video game made in the last ten years. looks like people are sick of everything being dark souls considering no one played it
>>741441571In these cases, all "souls mechanics" means is that you can lose currency if you die and don't make it back to where you dropped it. No matter how much you hate Dark Souls, that's not egregious or awful. It's just a good solution where limited lives no longer is how games work anymore. Nobody wants to deal with Game Overs and have to play things from the start. People can afford more than the 1 game their mom buys them on Christmas, so there's no reason to demand they 1cc something now.
>>741425102I knew it
The simple fact is that the secret ending is the true ending.Lionel hired Mina to make the spark generatorsThat does not give Mina the right to break streetlamps, bother children playing ball or support rebellious misguided fellows under the guise of 'fixing' things.Mina does not need to take toys from orphansMina does not need to steal pink laddersMina does not need to step on hard working leaves.Lionel made mistakes BUT just like Mina made a mistake, those can be talked through.You can always hire crews to dismantle the towers after you find a reasonable replacement so the people aren't disenfranchised.Also, digging holes everywhere is a safety hazard. Walk normally like the other rodent citizens.Thank you for your attention to this matter.
ALL furwaifus should be exempt from pants
>>741443005and have no vagina
>>741395112I feel like this game wasn't exactly what I was expecting from it. I was kinda hoping for a more top-down Zelda kinda of experience with exploration and such but it really is just a top-down Dark Souls instead. I don't think the game is bad or anything, but it wasn't what I wanted I guess.
Honestly this game was like a 5 or 6/10. It peaks early but then becomes pretty trivial in terms of difficulty and just becomes more annoying to play than anything
>>741443005why do they do it?
>>741431519Mina x Thorne x Anon threesome fic when
>>741443046Correct. Fluffy null groin is superior.
>>741443248to attract mates
>>741443841Specifically human shotas
It's an unfinished game. Devs seemed to beta test it in a vacuum and the yachtstans turf literally every place it's discussed.
741444014>NOTHING IS GENUINE, EVERYTHING IS COORDINATED PAID SHILL ASTROTURF CAMPAIGNSImagine unironically believing this.

>>741444878Or petting sand-doggos without the owner's permission.
The game is so big, it's weird how little Mina talks at all. She's such a blank state, I wish they gave her some personality other than being remorseful and driven
>>741444940She could also sell the can to the pawn shop.Is Mina really helping the people of Ossex if she doesn't help the local businesses?
>>741438939>finally get the attention of your cute scientist crush>alone together with no one to interrupt>no idea what you're supposed to do next, didn't think you'd get this far
This blm game?
What is the best trinket and why is it Steady Soles? I can't live without it.
>>741446570Yeah, this is the Beautiful Large Mouse game.
>>741442962I wish there was an ending on the other extreme, like you do all the sins then turn in to a monster at the end.
>>741446964....wouldn't surprise me if that did exist. The devs said that there are some secrets that haven't been found yet.
>>741446671When they do a sequel, shit like Steady Soles, Brisk Brew's base movespeed, and Tunneling Codex need to be built in. They make the game feel so much more snappy.
>Vial pouch>Vial Funnel>Wallower's glove>Burrower's codexYep, no I can play the game.
>>741446671I sure can't get enough of Mina's Steady Soles. But seriously the Bayou is borderline unplayable without them
>>741446787Why does she have underwear? Not accurate!
>>741446787do your duty janny
>741449257Sorry nonny, you missed the application window. Better luck next time~
>So i started playing this video game, Mina the Hollower, which was released May 29, 2026. I like the game
>>741451285I need a fic that continues after the ending, I gotta know what happens next
>>741451285It really just hit me that the reason Mina and Thorne even remotely get along is because Thorne being a bat makes him a winged rodent. Thorne flies through the air, while Mina burrows into the ground. I feel retarded for not putting that together.

>>741455846>it was one of the most obvious one.Anon tries to help your stupid ass and you just can't resist sounding like a cunt, can you?The one you're missing is pretty damn obvious too, you cocksmoking moron.
>>741456309Why are you angry? There's a breakable wall on the left side.
>>741455519you tried burrowing in that room?
>>741456352He explained why he's angry. Why should anyone work to help you now?
>>741455519IIRC this one is in the room with the silhouetted windows, all the way to the right.
>>741456396Just tried, there's nothing.>>741456671I remember getting one there, too.Maybe I didn't get far enough in the area? I've just beaten Lionel (first form?).
>>741456893Found it, it was between the two carpet weavers.
Did SmallAnt choose to not continue his playthrough of the game? Real shame. His was one of the more entertaining ones I've seen. And it seems like he was enjoying it too.
>>741455937isn't that the tutu?
>yet another update to fix problems with the game at 120fpsAre they trying to be Japanese by having logic tied to the framerate like idiots?
I know people keep saying castlevania/zelda/BB references but did no one else get Secrets of Nimh vibes? That was my favorite movie as a child

Anybody got all of the mirror faces? Specifically, the "shocked" one would be nice reaction image
>>741461247man what I wouldn't give for that. Tapping like a madman to toss is such a pain.
>>741437809>hover handNow wait a minute
>>741443069The game has a huge focus on secret hunting. And the only "souls" aspect is losing your bones when you die. That's fucking nothing, considering every other mechanic is straight from 2D Zelda.
>>741462000>And the only "souls" aspect is losing your bones when you dieand currency drops from enemies that is used to either purchase things or level yourself up
>>741461247intentional design choice, please understand
>>741462126that's true of 99% of video games that involve currency. Not Zelda, but so much other shit I wouldn't even call it "soulslike"Like every fucking RPG ever.
>>741461974please be patient he has autism
>Fix: Lionel health adjustmentsthey can't keep getting away with it
>>741462209>that's true of 99% of video games that involve currency.no it's not
>>741404494but still a page 10 and confession has already denied, twice!
>>741462257The only difference between RPG and soulslike is the merging of EXP and $$$. It's 1 resource instead of 2, but who cares?
I'd honestly rather play Hollow Knight than this furry game
>not on PS5why wont yacht club let me give them money?
>>741462449
>>741462392>bug fucking is different than mouse fuckingis it though?
>>741462449Are you clinically retarded?
>>741463130Mina even has a cute bug in it
>>741463584for some reason i thought she would have an even stronger form in the post-game as the true superboss
>>741464181I suppose they could have taken a page from FF7 and had a hidden optional super boss. But I was never under the impression we'd fight them again after they came to their senses.
>>741464181It sucks that the game had no post-content snuck about, or even taking a note from Hollow Knight's last DLC by letting you play jacked up versions of the bosses. I do hope they actually add some stuff to the game in the following months while they work their way up to the next big project.
>>741395112Which one should i start with
>>741464712hammeralways hammer
>>741464712Hammer for easy fun timeWhip for big cock Dual dagger for ebin time
>>741464712They're all good, and if you go looking, you can end up with all 3 (and a couple more) anyways.The only question is what do you like best?Rapid attacks?Safer long range?Or strong but planned attacks you might have to roll around to position for?
Would the game have been more popular if Mina was a lesbian?
How horrible... I can't believe Mina would force someone to do that...
>>741464873Rapid attacks
>>741465014Oh nvm, whisper and vesper will be
>>741465013>forceuh, he's the one who asked
>Has Mina build the spark generators>Pay her>Trust her on her second visitWas it really that hard for Mina not to break any street lamps and be nice?
>>741464813>>741464840Gonna prioritize hammer next then
>>741465574The Lional ending, is the good ending
I hate that i can't attack in diagonal but aside that, im liking the game so far
Anyone who said we can't have a mina general due to lack of content is a lying faggot. I just noticed there is a mahjong general for christ sake.
>>741466276Anon having a general isn't actually a good thingI agree we haven't 100% run out of things to discuss but I do not WANT a Mina general
>>741466362I don't really want one either. Just pointing out hypocrisy. Though a yachtclub general would be goated imo
>>741466276Nigga we don't want a generaljust look at /vg/ threads, they're all shitposting and namefagging and nobody actually talking about the gamenot every game needs to have 24/7 threads
>>741466486My face on her crotch, NOW
>>741466486Didn't realise it was anti-general hours
>>741467962It's always anti-general hours. This isn't a general.
>>741468002And yet you treat it like one. Curious…
>>741468002>this isnt a generalIt was. I remember.

So did Lionel actually know Mina was there, or did his full betrayal just happen to kick off right after Mina saw him do something super evil?
>>741470150>Immediately btfo by a post seconds laterlmao
I just beat the game and got 76% of the collectibles. Not sure if I want to go for 100% or not since it’s going to be a grind of me walking around areas I’ve already been to until the skull eyes light up. I could look up where everything is but that would be lame.
>>741470182Anon-kun, Lionel is literally the Kraken boss at the start of the game, he was always evil.
>>741470634There's no real reason to go for 100% unless you're the kind of person who finds that sort of thing inherently satisfying. There's no reward and most of the collectables are just bonestone.You could always just look up the remaining trinkets so you have a good idea of all possible options for NG+ or whatever, but that depends on if you even want to do that.
>>741470847No, no, I knew that. I mean, let's say in the canon scenario he did see Mina up there when he looked in her direction. Would he have kept up the act longer if he hadn't? Trick her further into the mansion after the party before killing her instead of telling the guards to kill on sight? Was his hand forced early?Or was it just that with the last generator activated he knew he only needed to deal with one last loose end?
>>741408451>Mist Jar in the toiletWhat happened?
>>741471363Fix: Removed invulnerability period at the completion of mist shiftFix: Mist shift restores less health
>>741408451speedrunners will just use earlier patches of the game anyway, so these nerfs only hurt legitimate players and don't affect speedtrannies at all
>>741471165Yeah, I never got the other ending myself (fuck going sinless) but I'm pretty sure it implies Lionel would rather not kill Mina at all. Out of evil intent, out of affection, who knows?It's only when it becomes clear that she'd fuck up his "man of the people" act and try to stop him that he goes full sicko mode
>>741471856Shame they couldn't give us a launch-version branch of the game.
>>741473740Wiggers already found a way to beat it in a little above 10 minutes, anon. https://youtu.be/-qumn0m-2ZA

Why are some anons so in denial that this isn't truly like 2D Zelda in many aspects besides aesthetics? Just beat the game earlier and did I miss that being a big point of contention?(Also Thorne is a lucky guy...)
>>741408683This art sucks, that looks nothing like Mina.

i'm stuck. is this my sidearm, in the corner? i can't reach it lmao.
>>741476937Why can't Mina crawl?
>>741476965grass
>>741476937it isn't your sidearm, you don't get to keep those on death until you buy an upgrade from after saving Rhenejust go around from the top
>>741470182I think he wouldn't care, even if he knew. When Mina dropped that bomb on him that she saw him mutate Thorne, he didn't miss a beat. Because he's strong enough that it wouldn't matter.Anyways, he had his plot in gear already, that laundry list of crimes she committed.
>>741474274Thank god YC kept Jake Kaufman. Shantae 7 Sirens dropped him and suffered for it, even if I think a few songs are good regardless.
>>741476965She has a crawling animation in the astral orrery only for some reason
>>741395112what an organic post, surely being an annoying unlikable cunt will make your threads have less shitposters
>>741477723Wait, they did? Not really much of a Shantae guy but the music was one of the biggest draws.
>>741478392Jake Kaufman isn't credited for 7 Sirens, so yeah. Don't know what happened there. If you want to believe Google AI, it said he was busy at the time. So maybe it wasn't a falling out.
>>741478481Google Fu tells me that King of Cards came out that same year. Could be he was doing nothing but Shovel Knight in that time span.
>>741478594I'll be fair to his stand-ins, they did a pretty good job, with at least 3 songs I consider legit catchy.
Threadly reminder that Mina killed a Canadian in cold blood and looted his corpse at the funeral.
>>741478392Jake hasn't been involved for the last two Shantae releases.>>741477723Problem is Mina isn't even close to some of his better work. Outside of the Astral Orrery, which feels like a riff off of his Double Dragon Neon credits tune, nothing really tickled my fancy like his stuff tends to do.
How long until shortstack Mina mod?
what the fuck were they thinking putting over 200 cheat codes in this game that you have to type in one by one
>>741480065Weren't they the same as the Feats?
>>741480065you unlock basically all of them by beating the game, and once you've unlocked any of them, by code or by progression, you don't have to type them in again
>>741480152>basicallywhich ones aren't unlockable?
>>741395112I went in expecting something like A Link to the Past but it turned out to be overhead castlemania. I still enjoyed it, though.
>>741480215I haven't check all of them, I think mostly the ones related to kickstarter/backer stuff? But those codes were datamined anyway.But generally speaking all the codes do is unlock certain modifiers early if you don't want to beat the game first.
>>741480065I was looking through the list and some of the codes correspond to modifiers that are already unlocked by default. Since there's a lot of modifiers unlocked by default I'm guessing a large portion of the list is redundant. My question is why the fuck do those have codes?
>>741480345Maybe some kind of leftover from before the modifiers system was implemented? It could be that earlier versions had a cheat system more like Shovel Knight's where you could only have one cheat assigned to each file.
Mmmmh, where is the collectible on that screen? Can't seem to find it.

>>741481231>The first encounter is fucking horseshitI was a little annoyed that the first phase is vastly more difficult than the following two. If they nerf anything of ph1 it better be followed with making the actual playable 2/3rd of the fight more challenging.
>>741481285I did. There's nothing more to be collected on board.
>>741481609You talk to the blue dude with the weird nose that runs in the train along with you (not the Conductor dude in your screenshot)
>>741481806I've talked to everyone. They just say their line and that's it.
>>741481609Read the newspapers until you figure out what you are doing wrong.
>>741481609>>741483758You may need to complete Bone Beach before the newspaper drops the real hint.
>>741480462Yeah that's probably it. The whole thing reeks of "we built this for testing/backer codes and then just stapled the modifier menu on top later". Still funny seeing a 200 entry password list in 2026 like anyone is gonna manually input OOPSALLBONES or whatever instead of just clicking the toggle.
>>741483828NTA, but what was it? I just happened across the right conditions by accident if that was the case.
>>741484073Take train FROM shifting sands(or Bone Beach as it calls itself) TO Nox Bayou. The newspaper will eventually straight up tell you.

Is it me or is the Fishing rod hit & miss with regards to which walls it'll let you get pulled up over?
i love my wife
>>741487665I fapped to Mina doing that to me.
Anons, I'm currently doing my Below Zero run and I wanted to know if I'm still allowed to grab standard sidearms (which doesn't include the fishing rod I presume). I'm currently on my way to the third Spark Generator and I wanted to find out now if you're allowed to grab them since I ''discovered'' three of them now by the menu info.Also, what happened with the Wallower's glove in Coltrane Peak? You can get stuck in place most of the time at spots where ice floors meet the walls. I don't remember this bug in my first playthrough with that trinket.
>>741476965She's a Hollower not a Crawlerer

>>741507841Damn villainous rat.....needs plap correction...!
>>741506670They never said why, but many suspect it was due to the site wide drawthread spammer whose been around for about five years and they finally had enough and just moved it. Instead of address the problem. Ever since then the thread is mostly devoid of any new artists and just stale as fuck. Can't get anything drawn there now.
>>741508548the dev threads were also being moved/deleted, not to mention the entire deltarune thing, so it feels like there is some bias or misunderstanding here
>>741508625What were the dev threads?The also axed the Dalle AI threads.And you can no longer have GaryC threads either for drawing.>so it feels like there is some bias or misunderstanding hereAssholes making stupid decisions, same as it ever was.
Finally beat the game after 32hrs with 94%. I really didn't want to comb for shitty bone gems. One trinket short because I missed the vendor in the manor which I will go back and get for 100% equipment. Final boss was very tedious and I ended up just facetanking him with daggers, evasion powder, iv vials, and bubble ring. Overall I still liked the game even though I felt like I never got that good at the combat.
>>741508849>What were the dev threads?just threads that popped up here and there where indie devs could share their stuff (it's where all the /v/3 games come from), because they (rightfully) don't want to use /agdg/. it was always on topic with game dev discussion and people asking dev questionsbut it seems those aren't allowed anymore, maybe cuz of one shitposter that kept spamming his bs
>>741508945Talking about video games on /v/, not being allowed? Say it aint so.But yeah its bullshit, maybe they culled them for shilling.Honestly this site needs to die so everyone who modded it and cry and have no one to push around anymore.
>>741509301No idea how the MJ reference applies here.
>>741395112this is the first time in a while ive played a new game and not known where to go
>>741509523MJ moved like a marionette quite often. I assume that's why she's moonwalking.
>>741395112Least organic threads in a while. Added to ignore list because of you.
>was expecting Mina to be a girlboss and a lesbian>she's by far the most abused creature in her own game, gets turned into a meat puppet at one point>just a humble researcher>gets shipped with a local bad boyheh
>Least organic threads in a while.>Added to ignore list because of you.
Would the game have been better if it was balanced around permanent upgrades and item gated progression?
>>741510713It would have been better if the enemies got a little bit tougher every time you lit a beacon. As it is right now, only the first 2-3 hours of the game are difficult; once you pass a low threshold of upgrades, nothing poses a threat anymore and combat becomes kinda mindless because you can facetank anything.
What the fuck was her problem?

>>741512117lewd!
>>741513024worst weapon is the shield because it turns the game into parryslop, can't start with it thoughbeit
>>741509301I have yet to find all the shops. Can someone tell me all the spots to check pls?
>>741512117Cute
>>741514373If shield is the worst, it's merely because they refuse to give you a button to throw it. Double tapping is really awkward.

I don't understand complaints about this game's story being too basic or predictable or not having enough memorable characters.Like, are we pretending that the games Mina is calling back to weren't the exact same way?
>>741527076Typically when a game harkens back to older generations of vidya, I want it to keep the good parts and improve the shitty parts. Having a barebones/confusing/barely-explained story isn't a good thing in any era.
>>741527076The story isn't predictable, unless you predicted Mina becoming a leper.Lionel being a villain wasn't supposed to be a surprise.
>>741527076Not really a complaint in my opinion, but more of a critisism. I thought the setting is really fun and lends itself to a lot of implications with storytelling, just seems like lost oppourtunity with yacht club having to keep to the "limitations" of gameboy color games by keeping everything quite flat.
>>741527076this game has tons of memorable characters, what uncultured heathens are saying otherwise? bunch of undertale faggots that think you need to have 50 lines of dialogue to be memorable
>>741525917I got a boner during that scene.
>got all of these in one fell swoopepicstill mad that my randomized ura run didn't get me the hard mode modifier achievements but WHATEVER
The issue I have with the story is it leaves so many questions unanswered and certain things just make no sense if you think about them for more than a few seconds.>Why does Mina seem to be completely blind to all the negative effects of Spark?>What even IS Spark? It's never really explained other than that it's some kind of energy source.>Why did Thorne attack Mina seemingly unprovoked at the beginning of the game if he's trying to get her on his side?>What the fuck is Lionfart even planning to do with Spark? He's already pretty much the sole highest authority figure in the town and everyone loves him.It's like they made a simple story, yet left so many plot holes that it's confusing.
>>741528757>It's like they made a simple story, yet left so many plot holes that it's confusing.Playing NG+ and just reading the dialogue again, yeah just a lot of things are unanswered or never explained. Even things like how thorne communicates to mina doesn't make sense.>Let me send her a nice letter warning the dangers of Lionhoe's plot.>BUT WHEN I SEE YOU, IM GONNA FUCKIN' KILL YOU YA LIL SHIT!!
>mina will never crush your head with her thighs
>>741414645they said they needed 500k to be comfy and 200k to not shut down, and they already beat 500k so im guessing they are going to be fine
>>741527896>Lionel being a villain wasn't supposed to be a surprise.Feels like the devs watched Zootopia and decided to make the Lion character from that who's in a similar position and as one of the antagonists, the main overall villain for this.
