oh yeah did you catch that the headless guy

taxes Sep 1, 2024 8:15 PM games

in act 2

taxes Sep 1, 2024 8:15 PM games

is actually the bad guy

Gent Sep 1, 2024 8:16 PM games

Rat man was really a good guy all along?

taxes Sep 1, 2024 8:16 PM games

yes

taxes Sep 1, 2024 8:16 PM games

the beetle is the buddhas mount

Gent Sep 1, 2024 8:16 PM games

😢

taxes Sep 1, 2024 8:17 PM games

and because the peopel of the area stopped practicing buddhism he set the beetle free to torture them, so ratman (and you) capture the beetle

taxes Sep 1, 2024 8:17 PM games

this pisses buddhaman off and he turns everyone into rats

taxes Sep 1, 2024 8:17 PM games

if they want to worship a rat so much, they can all be rats

Gent Sep 1, 2024 8:18 PM games

Maybe jttw was already like this, but I noticed buddhism was made to be very malicious and evil in a certain number of chinese properties

Gent Sep 1, 2024 8:18 PM games

Like the nutshack movies

taxes Sep 1, 2024 8:18 PM games

buddhism is full of corrupt people

taxes Sep 1, 2024 8:18 PM games

is the issue

taxes Sep 1, 2024 8:18 PM games

a true buddhist reaches realms beyond those who mimic its teachings

taxes Sep 1, 2024 8:19 PM games

black myth wukong even has this lesson in it

taxes Sep 1, 2024 8:19 PM games

you can't be a buddhist and vie for mortal delicacies

taxes Sep 1, 2024 8:22 PM games

Replying to taxes #tzfi

if they want to worship a rat so much, they can all be rats

ratman gets driven into sadness that his own teacher would result to hurting everyone for not following buddhist teachings

Spooky Phijkchu Sep 1, 2024 10:51 PM games

ok MAx

Spooky Phijkchu Sep 1, 2024 10:51 PM games

you were right

Spooky Phijkchu Sep 1, 2024 10:51 PM games

the last phase of this wukong act 4 fight

Spooky Phijkchu Sep 1, 2024 10:51 PM games

goes hard

taxes Sep 1, 2024 11:15 PM games

lol

taxes Sep 1, 2024 11:15 PM games

the item you get from the secret quest completely deletes the phase btw

taxes Sep 1, 2024 11:15 PM games

if its "too hard"

taxes Sep 1, 2024 11:15 PM games

which i didnt learn until i did ng+

taxes Sep 1, 2024 11:16 PM games

but i suspected it since every special relic item that goes in the bell/fire cloak slot

taxes Sep 1, 2024 11:16 PM games

completely deletes a bosses phase

taxes Sep 1, 2024 11:16 PM games

as like easy mode option

Spooky Phijkchu Sep 1, 2024 11:16 PM games

I'm glad I did it before finding that secret then

Spooky Phijkchu Sep 1, 2024 11:16 PM games

because it's a cool ass phase

taxes Sep 1, 2024 11:16 PM games

well you have to use the item when he does the phase for it to happen

taxes Sep 1, 2024 11:16 PM games

but yea

Spooky Phijkchu Sep 1, 2024 11:16 PM games

also Max, I was sad that the first fight was super cool with the daughters supporting

Spooky Phijkchu Sep 1, 2024 11:16 PM games

but then when you refight

Spooky Phijkchu Sep 1, 2024 11:16 PM games

they're gone

taxes Sep 1, 2024 11:16 PM games

its unfortuante but

taxes Sep 1, 2024 11:17 PM games

lore wise it makes sense

taxes Sep 1, 2024 11:17 PM games

because every one of your deaths IS a real thing that happened ingame

Spooky Phijkchu Sep 1, 2024 11:17 PM games

I really want a boss rush mode

Spooky Phijkchu Sep 1, 2024 11:17 PM games

let me cope that this will be the first souls game that finally adds one

taxes Sep 1, 2024 11:18 PM games

sekiro is calling

taxes Sep 1, 2024 11:18 PM games

aka the best soulslike

taxes Sep 1, 2024 11:18 PM games

is calling

taxes Sep 1, 2024 11:18 PM games

the only one that has a boss rush

taxes Sep 1, 2024 11:18 PM games

built into the game

taxes Sep 1, 2024 11:18 PM games

with rewards

Spooky Phijkchu Sep 1, 2024 11:18 PM games

oh right, yeah they did add that

taxes Sep 1, 2024 11:18 PM games

and new bosses at the end

taxes Sep 1, 2024 11:18 PM games

wow crazy sekiro is the best

taxes Sep 1, 2024 11:18 PM games

who coulda thunk it

This is OK

taxes Sep 2, 2024 1:04 PM games

It feels like they had a concept, made the concept, got bored of making the concept and just kinda pushed out their finished project

taxes Sep 2, 2024 1:05 PM games

im very confused why theres no final boss, but gimmick wise its fun enough to waste time playing

taxes Sep 2, 2024 1:05 PM games

unironically would go up 2 points if it had a final boss or something to strive for

Spooky Phijkchu Sep 2, 2024 1:05 PM games

oh I saw that one, I was surprised it went straight from demo ---> release

taxes Sep 2, 2024 1:05 PM games

the demos been out a year

taxes Sep 2, 2024 1:05 PM games

hasnt it

taxes Sep 2, 2024 1:06 PM games

or 6 months

Spooky Phijkchu Sep 2, 2024 1:06 PM games

smt like that

taxes Sep 2, 2024 1:06 PM games

the dopamine rush of getting a strong set combo is pretty good

taxes Sep 2, 2024 1:06 PM games

and combining loot

taxes Sep 2, 2024 1:07 PM games

but it just has nothing to strive for and once you get super OP the only way to die is bullshit oneshots

Spooky Phijkchu Sep 2, 2024 1:07 PM games

a lot of these concept games feel like that to me, I love trying them and they're usually pretty competent

taxes Sep 2, 2024 1:08 PM games

concept wise its nice and it has a lot of QoL and small things that make game very easy to play like hover over tooltips that explain every effect and stat and formula

taxes Sep 2, 2024 1:08 PM games

its competent

taxes Sep 2, 2024 1:08 PM games

just...

taxes Sep 2, 2024 1:08 PM games

there very little reason to play more

taxes Sep 2, 2024 1:08 PM games

to me

Spooky Phijkchu Sep 2, 2024 1:09 PM games

they are all missing something, to raise them above being a straight time sink

Spooky Phijkchu Sep 2, 2024 1:09 PM games

^^

taxes Sep 2, 2024 1:09 PM games

the other issue too is

taxes Sep 2, 2024 1:09 PM games

theres not enough loot

taxes Sep 2, 2024 1:10 PM games

the game only has 4 items in your shop at at ime and you can reroll it, so it can be hard to get something you want but you can get lucky or whatever, but there's only like less than 50 different item sets

taxes Sep 2, 2024 1:10 PM games

and realistically you fall into doing the same ones each time

taxes Sep 2, 2024 1:10 PM games

not enough variaty even though it kinda pretends to have some

Spooky Phijkchu Sep 2, 2024 1:10 PM games

I HATE, how Steam lets publishers overwrite the developer page on Steam

Spooky Phijkchu Sep 2, 2024 1:10 PM games

I want to see if they put out any other stuff

Spooky Phijkchu Sep 2, 2024 1:11 PM games

not see that their shitter indie slop publisher is having a sale on some failed game they put out last month

Spooky Phijkchu Sep 2, 2024 1:12 PM games

Replying to taxes #tzfi

concept wise its nice and it has a lot of QoL and small things that make game very easy to play like hover over tooltips that explain every effect and stat and formula

I liked that in the demo, the abilities also weren't multi-paragraphs autism
