Ok it's weirder that Polu can name his last 12 goons

Youve never kept track ever? I did it for a month once just bc the data is kinda interesting

TinyBomby May 18, 2026 9:31 PM games

No I really haven't that sounds extremely autistic

Kribbles May 18, 2026 9:32 PM games

I mixed up Gardevoir and Ralts and said my most recent goon was Ralts

TinyBomby May 18, 2026 9:32 PM games

that's not ok

Makes sense they removed the tag "Cult Classic". Any game maker could claim their game is a cult classic. Lennod Jump Game should have been tagged that.

the Movie tag should have stayed

Pyrrhic May 18, 2026 10:16 PM games

Also RPG Maker. There's a certain level of quality you expect from a game made from RPG Maker.

Phijkchu_Pikachu May 18, 2026 10:16 PM games

PRG maker should be a tag

polu May 18, 2026 10:16 PM games

PRG?

I agree, this one might actually be used

Spooky Phijkchu May 18, 2026 10:36 PM games

rather than a tag. filter by engine should be a thing

Spooky Phijkchu May 18, 2026 10:37 PM games

And that's not even a field a developer has to set, Steam knows this automatically based on your build files

literally the best SRPG ive ever played

Ok, so is this game just entirely stealth missions?

TinyBomby May 19, 2026 11:14 AM games

I'm in mid chapter 2 right now and I'm getting real tired of just stealth missions... The only fun mission so far has been the defend map, which was great, and I want more of it

TinyBomby May 19, 2026 11:21 AM games

I love looking something up and seeing entirely the same complaint as me. The only discussion of this game is the stelath missions being annoying.

Pyrrhic May 19, 2026 11:36 AM games

I've had that experience with Mafia: The City of Lost Heaven. Everyone pretty much only talks about the racing mission (probably because they couldn't get passed it. Including me).

Ngl, I thought reverse collapse was a stand alone VN they made and not an actual game

i mentioned before theyre the big filter

taxes May 19, 2026 2:50 PM games

you can pvp the stealth missions after an update they did

taxes May 19, 2026 2:50 PM games

its pretty hard but its doable

taxes May 19, 2026 2:51 PM games

I like them but theyre definitely the most controversial part

taxes May 19, 2026 2:51 PM games

There's a lot more at the start than the end

I figured this would be the case which is why I'm sticking with it, but it is a bit much haha.

TinyBomby May 19, 2026 2:53 PM games

The mechanics are otherwise very good, I'm liking the game a lot.

taxes May 19, 2026 2:53 PM games

act 1-3 are a lot shorter than act 4

taxes May 19, 2026 2:53 PM games

and act 4 has like 3 stealth missions out of like 30?

are you save scumming the stealth maps

TinyBomby May 19, 2026 2:54 PM games

absolutely

taxes May 19, 2026 2:54 PM games

okay then yea theys houldnt take that long

taxes May 19, 2026 2:54 PM games

if you just quicksave move

taxes May 19, 2026 2:55 PM games

my first run was on challenge+ so i couldnt save ever and only had the checkpoinst they gave me

TinyBomby May 19, 2026 2:55 PM games

oh yeah I'm just playing on mormal mode

taxes May 19, 2026 2:55 PM games

i think most of the stealth maps honestly arent that bad past the opener

TinyBomby May 19, 2026 2:55 PM games

I pretty much play every game on normal difficulty for a first playthrough

taxes May 19, 2026 2:55 PM games

as in solving them

taxes May 19, 2026 2:56 PM games

but I like puzzles

TinyBomby May 19, 2026 2:56 PM games

I do like puzzles, it's just not what I was expecting from this typ e of game

taxes May 19, 2026 2:57 PM games

if sophoric darts didnt exist

taxes May 19, 2026 2:57 PM games

itd be a lot worse

taxes May 19, 2026 2:57 PM games

they make all the stealth maps doable without sophoric darts

taxes May 19, 2026 2:57 PM games

but the solutions are really archaic

TinyBomby May 19, 2026 2:58 PM games

I've only used them a few times so far

TinyBomby May 19, 2026 2:58 PM games

only needed them* I have S rank on every mission so far except the trip mine level where I'm returning to our base.

taxes May 19, 2026 2:58 PM games

trip mine has a secret solution

TinyBomby May 19, 2026 2:59 PM games

does it really?

TinyBomby May 19, 2026 2:59 PM games

I'm not sure I like the idea of secret, hidden solutions

taxes May 19, 2026 2:59 PM games

i mean

taxes May 19, 2026 2:59 PM games

its pretty easy to find

TinyBomby May 19, 2026 2:59 PM games

I'm bad 😔

taxes May 19, 2026 2:59 PM games

if you enter a building with either character

taxes May 19, 2026 2:59 PM games

they mention "oh there's a button here...."

taxes May 19, 2026 2:59 PM games

and then it points out the other exact same building

taxes May 19, 2026 2:59 PM games

and you have them both stand in them and it turns off the security

taxes May 19, 2026 2:59 PM games

but one of the buildings is basically at the end

TinyBomby May 19, 2026 3:00 PM games

ohhh I thought that just disabled the turrets, not the mines

taxes May 19, 2026 3:00 PM games

i believe it does?

taxes May 19, 2026 3:00 PM games

both i mean

TinyBomby May 19, 2026 3:00 PM games

I went into one building, disabled one turret, and then walked through. I didn't press a switch in a second building though, so I assume that's what I needed to do to fully disable everything.

taxes May 19, 2026 3:01 PM games

maybe im misremembering that map is like nonexistent to me

TinyBomby May 19, 2026 3:01 PM games

that's fair

taxes May 19, 2026 3:01 PM games

a tutorial map to teach you how to deal with enemy tripmines

TinyBomby May 19, 2026 3:01 PM games

That's like the last mission I did. I'm in the middle of the map right after it.

taxes May 19, 2026 3:01 PM games

🥴

TinyBomby May 19, 2026 3:01 PM games

Yeah but I didn't S rank it because one of the objectives is to only trip 6 mines.

taxes May 19, 2026 3:03 PM games

there's probably like uh

taxes May 19, 2026 3:04 PM games

8-10 more stealth maps out of the like 60 more maps left in the game

taxes May 19, 2026 3:04 PM games

and a lot of the later "stealth" maps have secret solutions if you check out unique tiles

taxes May 19, 2026 3:05 PM games

none are intended/required theyre just kinda instant ways out for people that dont want to bother

Polar_ May 20, 2026 1:19 PM games

Spooky and Polu, whom I refuse to @, I saw you guys had a couple of hours in this game. Is it worth picking up?

I remember this from E3

Polar_ May 20, 2026 1:53 PM games

Was it really at E3?

Polar_ May 20, 2026 1:53 PM games

Ive been playing Rivals of Aether 2 and was looking at the spin offs

Phijkchu_Pikachu May 20, 2026 2:01 PM games

It was at E3* *We refer to every single announcement show around announcement show time as E3 inluding well after E3 proper died

Phijkchu_Pikachu May 20, 2026 2:01 PM games

It was at some indie E3

Polar_ May 20, 2026 2:09 PM games

You either die as E3, or see yourself live long enough to become E3
