/v/ - Video Games

fug ov shil

I did, and it doesn't only have style, it's got substance to back it up. It's an old newgrounds comedy game except fully realized, chock full of sidequests and details, and pretty creative overall.

If I had to slam it, it would be over too many skills being outright useless so you'll mostly keep the 30% best skills throughout the game. But for a two-man game, this shit is downright impressive, and I can't really think of a better game to come out in 2018 so far. Except MHGU but that's a recently localized port so it hardly counts

Of course, /v/ can't talk about standout indie games that deserve to be better known because of degenerates who think crying shill is saving video games.

post a magnet if you're so cool

I saw the trailer and thought this shit had a lot of heart but like hell am I paying for shit in CY+3 too many blatantly unfinished shits going to market now

someone shilled it on this imageboard, but i don't see the point of it

Too many niggers need to be spoonfed around here.

Nig that's just they way things are here

no link = shill

simple as that

I've been playing it too

>Gameplay is pretty good, if fairly easy(Some of the bosses I've faced so far like the GlockenSpiel and the Literature Guardian(this chick in particular was really fun to fight against) aren't so). I like how simple it is but how I can still pull off kind of sick combos with the right skills

>Surprisingly large amount of content to it, I mean I'm still in chapter 1 but a lot of other games would have ended right about now

>Very charming, kind of funny at parts

>Journal is pretty good too

<could use lots more music. The Scrooge mansion had great music, I can't really think of any other music in the game other than the school halls beat which seems like a 10 second loop. The Theater's music felt terrible and I can't tell if it's supposed to be on purpose or not.

<a lot of skills are worthless, especially once you upgrade tiers

<is the type of metroidvania where progression is through the story and not through getting some ability which opens up new parts of a map, sometimes quite literally where you can't enter an area until some point in the story progresses and suddenly you can now enter that area

<if skill sorceress was hot she(?)'d be titanium dick material

<I'm sick of the small 5 second animations between stores like Paul and Allen's self help store and the trenchcoat kids

So far I really like it. I'm curious about something though, to the people who had finished it.

In the Art Gallery there's a trenchcoat kid who sells super expensive shit like an overpowered sword and whatnot, one of those items has a passive where Daryl is supposed to talk and it fills in parts of the story, supposedly. Has anyone tried it and is it an actual thing or is it a joke item?

I get the feeling Daryl's "speech" would literally just be a text bubble with "…" in it.

Only time shilling truly occurs is within the launch window of a game. That first week or so is the only period that really matters because it's when devs/studios will see any return on their investment. Past that point, sales will drop off so hard that the cost of hiring a PR team to shill it will outweigh the small number of sales that might come from such a stupid thing. Also, the game ain't even on sale, which is pretty much the only time little games like this see any spike in profits.

Really sick and tired of western games deliberately going out of their way to make everything so hideous and unappealling to look at.

She's not a generic anime girl, therefore shit.

>>15775531

You take that back!

>can play with 8 skills now

This party was about to get crazy but switching has this small delay on it that really kills any momentum, and also cooldowns don't tick while on a different page.

Honestly I'm starting to burn out, there are so many side quests I'm not completing because I honestly have no idea what I'm missing. For example the ghost locks, I can't tell if I'm missing a ghost lock somewhere or if the map glitched out and isn't showing that I had collected said lock. Or Watson's second quest, I have no idea what the letter is supposed to be or who the autobiography author is supposed to be.

>>15775559

The ghost locks are just a shortcut system you unlock at a certain point, it's entirely automatic. As for watson's second quest, there's a random spawning goblin in Napoleon's side of history. He's clearly different from the others, and I don't think he's too uncommon.

Is it true that the villains of the game are filthy commies?

>>15775569

That's good to know, but there are also way too many fetch quests for my liking and they're getting more and more tedious. and the jump from Good tier to Great tier feels really bad so far.

>>15775583

It's true, this game will absolutely burn out completitionists, I'm trying my hardest go ignore all tedious sidequests.

>Do you find her ugly ?

she's got the whole Marie Kanker thing going on so no. I've always had a thing for the odd girl or the kind of girls people say are "ugly"

It is unironically a pretty nice game. Some flaws in design, but it's genuinely better than some AAA games that came out this year.
