You DID play Mina's game, right /v/? And you didn't get filtered by the first couple hours too, right? I'd like to believe /v/ isn't full of casual babbies.
>>745216738No, I just saved the art.
Nah looked like shit.
>>745178930Mina and Sybil confused by Pipistrellos pants.
>>745216847Unforgivable sin. did you at least save good stuff
>>745216738i died before i even got to the first boss
>>745217246not that anon but someone had saved and reposted this when I posted it initially and it made me happy
>>745216738someone please post the cheese to meet you alt with Mina
>>745216738Surely there‘s better ways to shill a game than this
>>745217489haha haha
>>745217489no wonder zoomer girls don't want to date when they guys think flirting like women is appealing
>Rivals of Aether 2 collab>nothing elseso this franchise is effectively fucking dead right?Thorne is there for DLC that's never going to happen
The biggest problem of the game is the subweapon system, i have no idea how they let someone put something as clunky and annoying into the game, this is probably an even worse system than silksong's subweapons + shell shards.
>>745217883filtered
Every time I see footage of this game, it reminds me of a faster version of the GameBoy Zeldas where you have to use the flippers to submerge yourself and dive around for secrets underwater, except you have to do it meticulously through EVERYTHING. Or like using the shovel on every patch of grass/dirt on every screen. A completely exhausting way to play if you’re trying to be a completionist.
>>745217837I don't see why it has to be a franchise. I'd rather see something new from Yacht Club next, preferably by the end of the decade if possible.
>>745218105i guess i shouldn't had said franchise but given how Shovel Knight was handled, you'd expect more from it
>>745218060>oh no I have to press the jump button to jump over pits>this is so tedious

>>745218857I don't really care to be desu, go kiss a frog if you want.
did anyone else feel like the bosses weren't that memorable? The Carving Man was extremely easy despite being a Nemesis-esque monster and the only bosses i can remember are the giant house and the train. The Astral Orrery boss was eh, i feel like i only remember it because of the music that plays
>>745218908DON'T MIND IF I DO
>>745216738YesI cheated and had fun
>>745218857rats are not mice
>>745216738Its genuinely too hard, I got filtered
>>745219409It's only the first couple of hours that are hard; it gets easier and easier past that.
>>745219409you need to bone up
>>745219409the game is laughably easy on the 2nd half
It was fine. I still think Shovel Knight is an overall better game.
>>745216738Yes, I completed all feats and finished NG+7.
>mousetraps in the final dungeonlmao
>>745220031>Mina has a unique pain sound for them
Why does the shopkeeper keep trying to abduct me?And why does the other shopkeeper have a rape dungeon?What is wrong with this town
>You DID play Mina's game, right /v/?I'm waiting on the physical edition
>>745220614This is the same town that will chastise you for "abandoning" Cappy, and then turn around and murder him while trying to catch youthey don't deserve salvation
I don't play flavor of the month trash.
>>745218946I think you aren't obligated to remember every boss in a videogame.With that said the ones who took the spotlight for me were Mined Mind, Evra the Undying and Lionel. There are others that I remember but they don't capture my interest like Locomotress Agnes, the Duchess and the Carving Man. There's also some that I just forget because they're pretty much minibosses like Furgus the Faithful, Thalassion and Major Miner.
>>745220687>murder him while trying to catch youThat shit came out of nowhereFuck that entire place
>game story is "rich people bad">surely just a coincidence>watch dev interview>they can't shut up about lefty politicswhat is it with the air in california that turns people retarded
>game story is "rich people bad"except it's not, /pol/fag
>>745221347>turns out that the spark generators that rich people abuse are destroying the land around the city and the ominous rich guy is actually a bad guyyou can just say you didn't play the game
>>745217753Mina with glasses is pure sexo. I would fuck her with those on, mandatory.
>>745216738Yeah I beated it dw. One day I'll try new game+ remix modes
>>745221516Art imitates life
>>745221248California is a retard magnet, not a retard generator.
>>745221248But rich people ARE bad, unless you're like a Satan-worshipping demon...
>>745221248How are they wrong tho?
>>745221516>the antagonist is a rich guy>SO THE STORY IS "RICH PEOPLE BAD"this is your brain on /pol/
>>745221594It really is astounding how adding glasses makes "sexo" go to "CUTE and sexo"
>>745221812>he actually paid money for thiskek
745221961yes, because I'm not brown, so I can afford to purchase videogames and support game developers that I like
>>745221913Yeah the round glasses are so rare nowdays especially on a woman it adds a ton of sex appeal. Also source please.
>>745222224>support game developers that I likeMore like support BLM.

>745222352>trannies out of nowhereGenuinely mindbroken
>>745222301No one should care of what you do with your money. If they had funds from blm, ok i would have never bought the game, but if they want to squander their legit gains? Not my problem.Same shit with gaben's yacht.Stop envying the rich poorfag.
I feel like I'm about halfway done with it at this point. Was it me being bad or is picking the flail a terrible first option? Not being able to hit diagonals feels fucking awful in this with how enemies move around you.
>>745223064The other weapons aren't particularly any better at that. The whip still feels the most balanced to me.
>>745222224WIFE (stinky)
Mina says trans rights!
>>745223064I started with the mace-whip but also moved to the dagger, that forward slash upgrade is great
>>745223064The whip/flail is good enough for me as it's the balanced option between the fast daggers and the powerful hammer. If you really want to attack diagonally then I suggest you to use the buster.
>>745223064I've honestly never touched the flail again after realizing I could usually just go oonga boonga with the daggers and kill everything before they kill me
>>745216738I don't play games that look like dogshit so I didn't play her game.

Have you ever bought anything through Panino's shop?
>>745219715Excellent, you beat the game.
>>745227576Never saw that one
What are your thoughts on Lionel's final form?I was confused on how it flies on my first run for a short while but then I just rolled with it. Probably some spark shenanigans.
>>745216738>And you didn't get filtered by the first couple hours too, rightcalled me out. i dropped out during the first escort, i just didn't want to keep playing at that moment and never picked it back up.
>>745221913i don't like that i can recognize berseepon's artstyle immediately. in fact, i can recogniize >>745218648 coldbloodedtwi as well
>>745229562All I remember is him absolutely unloading in a last ditch effort and Mina's brutal lobotomy-execution.
>>745230959wtf is that me on the right? i don't look anything like that
>>745230959I hope they're OK and like get off the island and go back to Mina's or something.
>>745231697No that is Pipistrello meeting his hero.
>>745216738I only did the crypt and swamp generator. Then the game did that gay ass Simon's Quest tier thing where you have to search every pixel to find where to go next, dropped it right then and there. If you can't be bothered to be honest about progression then I can't be bothered to play your game.
>>745229562it's ehproblem that every boss at the end is so easy to tank
>>745216738Played it. Enjoyed it. Would love to see more of it in the future.>>745219409Some trinkets turn the game into easy-modo with how good they are. Plasma funnel was a game changer to me.

Reminder that Mina is for human men only
>>745216738"Rich people bad" stories are only woke if they are written after 2020. Ones written before then, especially in the 80's, are just considered normal.
>>745229881It just means you're a based anon with based taste. Nothing to worry about.
>>745234379There is literally zero "pixel searching" involved in completing the main story. You're just bad, animeposter.
>>745221516>literally writes ABUSE >this is just because he's rich isn't it?He could have stayed rich without fucking everything else
>>745221516and if he's poor and abused the generators somehow it would be "poor people bad?"

>>745237981>anon when background npc character #40 no one remembers of a game barely anyone played doesn't have pages of art

Mina's husband is hot
>>745238291>you complain about (thing) ? THAT MUST MEAN YOU WANT (extreme opposite of thing)Die
>>745238250Hard to do that when it's all on twitter / bluesky which have fucking garboshit searching and no tagging
>>745238198Likely because they know Mina is going to be heading to the mansion to shut down the final generator, so they made it extra anti-mouse.

still not sure why i boughted it
Reading the thread, I'm kinda surprised some of you actually bought this.Regardless if it's good or not, buying a game from devs that will donate it to BLM is very cringe and gay. Please, do better.
>>745239763
>>745239867>will donate it to blm>will>implying future actionanon, they donated one time, six years ago, and have not spoken a word about BLM since then
>>745239921Yes, of course anon. I'm sure the company full of lefties isn't donating to anymore leftie causes because they keep quiet about it now. Absolutely.Of course.
>>745239709>haughtyThey knew what they were doing here
>>745239709>Thorne's fat bat cock dangling around in front of Mina every time they see each otherUnf
>>745222383It literally, genuinely, actually fucking is, how are you this naive.Nevermind, it isn't naivety, you feel like you need to defend the faggot company because you liked their mid game goon to the rat girl.You don't need to do that btw, please stop.
>>745240131>they're totally still doing it I know they are>it definitely wasn't a publicity stunt just like all the other 100+ companies that donated to BLM and then never spoke of it again
>>745239867even if this is bait, i don't even care that they donated to BLM, they are retards and they fell for the grift like half of the country didproblem is that I don't want actually talented devs to do shit that is self-destructive, like moving to california
I did and I genuinely liked it a lot. Its a good game. That's all I really have to say.
funny how a bajillion companies and game devs donated to BLM, and yet it only gets mentioned in yacht club games and deltarune threads
I did finish it, it was coolalso I'd fuck a mouseI'd fuck it in a house
>>745239867I could say the same to you people who won't shut up about this BLM stuff in your baits.Do better and care about the game itself. This whole matter that my money is magically going to the past to play shitty games that suck ass before being deposited to the BLM campaign is just annoying.The studio did some bad moves but I want to play the game. If it looks fun to me then I'll play it and if it's truly good then I'll like it and that's it. Just because I bought it doesn't mean I agree with every single belief in the mind of the creators.You guys probably don't even apply this logic in your daily lives when buying the stuff you consume every single day.
>>745221248Play the game retard the story is that Mina is bad
>>745241230And I would fuck them in the rainAnd in the dark and on a trainAnd in a car and in a treeThey're all so good so good to sex
>>745221248Very specific rich people have formulated every problem that exists in the worldThere's more than enough resources out there to keep people happy and healthy, the wealthy actively fund against things that would improve the life of the common person so they can maintain the status quo
>>745241943moar
I pirated the game and it's a 9/10 for me, slightly lower than Pipistrello. I'm really happy that Thorne was saved at the end and I was hoping the other hollowers would be too but I'm pretty sure they got lynched at the end. Patiently waiting the sequel that I did not contribute to.
>>745242178Pretty decent chance this is a one and done series, Yacht club needs to make shovel knight 3d next. Their finances have been fucked for a while and all Mina did was buy them a couple more years of time
>>745216738I guess I just grew tired of it after reaching the final area and never came back to finish it.The right word would be "overdesign". Every single screen is excessively filled with puzzles required to move an inch or jump a pit. Every single enemy has excessively complicated movesets and blocks most attacks in a certain way so you gotta keep hitting them from the back or sides. Once you fall in any bottomless pit, the game warps you to a predefined safe platform that's annoyingly too far. The sub weapons do very little damage on bosses and it's better to simply stack all the level ups in attack and completely ignore the other upgrades, best never equip the damage multiplier trinket and avoid getting hit.I don't know, I wanted to like it.
Shills are getting extremely desperate now that the game can't even reach 400 players in a dayYet another lesson that if you go broke you go broke, enjoy the mass layoffs and dead studios
>>745242669*unequip, sorry
>>745242669>Every single enemy has excessively complicated movesets and blocks most attacks in a certain way so you gotta keep hitting them from the back or sides.Anon, this isn't remotely true for anything besides the knight enemies and there's only a few of those in the game.
>>745242723
>Pip's game got a boost in sales thanks to Minathe good ending
>>745234379Yes, it's literally bringing back the worst of 80's gaming. Refunded.
>>745244068>zoomie got filtered because there's no yellow paintSad! Many such cases.
Yatch club games is joining them
>>745216738Yeah, nearly figured out everything too. The number of times I had to reuse that fucking ladder was gating me from about half of my remaining unknowns. I think I missed a couple of trinkets and a phial.
>>745216738I got filtered in the first few hours. I'm getting old, man.
745245558YCG is an indie dev though, they weren't laid off by microsoft
>>745216738went through once, doubt i'll play through it againfocus on verticality in such a perspective was an impressively bad idea (shoutout to my mainn mann madd house)speaking of, too many bosses rely on spergout dash moves for my liking, any burrow-related relic seems mandatory to handle those if you don't want to play on predicts and evade 0.5 seconds before you see you might need to"go anywhere" design serves questionable use on the first go (because you can't know anything) but i guess it's for those who want to optimize NG+ by getting busted relics earlylionel was so stupidly obvious i convinced myself it's gonna be a double switcharound with him being genuinely good if a bit oafishbut ultimately his evil plan and all the thorne shit and main plot in general was terrible, unsure why it wasn't just castlevania-tier straightforward if it ended up this dull>tl;dri would not like to fuck a mousei would not fuck it in my housei do not like it mr /v/eethis shit's alright but not for me
>>745234519What? I was throwing hands at that fucking skeleton boss and he hit me for like 50-70% if he ever touched me with his skeleton barrage. What do you mean easy to tank? The enemies sure, the bosses no.
>>745245746What was not straightforward about this story?>guy invites you>get told spark is bad>guy says spark is good>see spark is bad>guy wants spark to stay because legacyIt’s a super straightforward story. If you were against Lionel from the start you just wouldn’t have a hub.
>pirate game>donate $20 to blm
>>745229562Extremely easy, but annoying and designed to waste time rather than be an interesting fight. This is what I expected for the boss, and it’s neat they committed so hard to the spark towers as a minigame because it’s precisely the kind of gimmick shit that a handheld title would sell itself on.
>>745245996>If (...) from the startboy i sure do love this response to any and all narrative complaints, as if writers were put under a geas and simply HAD TO make one plot point a certain way and then write everything else around iti don't intend to break absolutely everything down, but it's bad on the grounds that mina is an actual character (and not a plain silent player insert) but is unable to say anything useful to anybody important, all while being a stooge UP TO AND INCLUDING THE WHOLE THORNE VS LIONEL confrontation on the towerin regards to being straightforward: if you can't see the difference between graham jones and lionel, then i don't know what to tell you, guess sheer wordcount and time to beat factor into the perception of the story
>>745247014If you didn’t catch it, everyone is complicit in spark. Everyone that isn’t Mina, Thorne, and Thorne’s rebels are aware that spark is fucking things up but would rather it exist than not. Did the entire town showing up to kill you not tip you off?
>>745247238we have barely any idea about who knows how much, and it's really not surprising that shutting down radioactive power plants, the only source of energy of the island, would invite hate from every stranger who liked lamplight (whenever they were on lionel's payroll or not)regardless, that doesn't rebut anything at all, and if you are content with the writing and story then why are you even listening to me
Yeah I don't think the townspeople were "in on it", they're just having a melty because you shut off their electricity

>>745248081Everyone knows everything is kind of fucky. They would like it to be less fucky, but electricity is better than things being safe in the boonies. Mina believes Lionel is at worst misdirected or ignorant until the end, and he was even talking that good shit about righting the wrongs before the threw Thorne at the radiation ball. Sure, the story isn't revolutionary or anything, but I think it was fine and emblematic of the era the game was aping.>and if you are content with the writing and story why are you even listening to meTo argue about video games on the video games board. It's why I'm here, even.
