>game is already contender for GOTY, possibly the only true 10/10 in 2017 >Sup Forums ignores it or hates on it
I've been playing the shit out of this game vicariously through watching Northernlion play through it , and it's so damn beautiful. Hollow knight thread.
Kayden Ross
solid 7.7/10

Well done, here is a (you).
Sage, though.
Luke Brown
>Sup Forums ignores it
Did you manage to miss the constant threads it had for a few weeks?
Grayson Bennett
I like it. I only started having fun after I got out of the first area and started getting some abilities. Reaching the Greenpath revitalized my interest in exploration and seeing more of the game.
I don't know why there isn't a diagonal attack though. It's annoying to jump and miss an attack because an enemy is not beside or above you. It's not terrible but it has made me frown.
Jackson Collins
Nobody had been talking about it recently
Evan Rivera
how to make a shit thread 101 >DUDE THIS GAME IS LIKE THE BEST GOTYAY 10/10 >ugh but Sup Forums ignores it or hates it obviously like ugh i can't even die
Luis Hall
oh boy another 2d plataformer, metroidvania non the less except it doesnt look half as good as either castleania nor metroid games i liked ori and the blind forest, i played ori and the blind forest i dont want to play it twice
Carter Rodriguez
You forgot the part where he hasn't even played it.
Daniel Cooper
but ori bad game and hollow knight good game
Jacob Ward
yeah, no
Caleb Scott
>but ori bad game why
Isaiah Parker
>its a 10/10 because i watched some else play
actually unironically kill yourself
David Thomas
It's just solid in its own genre. It does nothing new.
Caleb Wright
name one (1) thing good about ori other than it's soundtrack and art style?
terrible story button mashing """"combat"""" boring escape sequences that are the antithesis of metroidvania gameplay
Dominic Moore
this the fact that you managed to make a videogame by yourself was something impressive back in the cave story and world of goo days nowdays you need something else, even if you are an indy you still need to make your game stand out somehow
Thomas Bell
You know, you guys hating on hollow knight in this thread proves OP's point
Jackson Flores
OP, okay. Hollow Knight is a fine Metroidvania with a cool artstyle, but god damn you are fucking overrating it. I'd give it like an 8/10.
Jack Hill
>name one (1) thing good about ori other than it's soundtrack and art style? the platforming >terrible story i don't care i skipped it all >button mashing """"combat"""" i don't care it just makes you focus on the platforming more
Camden Gray
the soundtrack and art style, whats up with this bullshit? thats two big things it whas over this generic crap >name 1 thing ori does well without mentioning the things ori does well fuck off
Ethan Rivera
>all these shills over their "okay" Metroidvania game
Adrian Nguyen
>one (1)
Try a bit harder. Only trolls type like this.
Leo Russell
>you guys hating on hollow knight in this thread There's been none of that. Are you retarded?
Jose Johnson
>i don't care >i don't care why did you even bother replying to him?
Blake Gutierrez
its a unity game that feels like an actual game and not floaty ragdoll 2016 >terrible story it had barebones story, see that tree? go there, why should i care if a couple hour long plataformer has story? did you play meat boy? were you expecting gone esther or something? >button mashing """"combat"""" yeah, wasnt much to the combat i give you that made up for it with the fun plataforming tho >boring escape sequences that are the antithesis of metroidvania gameplay what the owl and the one at the end of the game?
Asher Sullivan
to say that the platforming was good and that his complaints aren't important
Xavier Taylor
the platforming's as braindead as hollow knight
not enough to make a game good
no shit, but im still right
Cameron James
im downloading it to my phone right now
John Williams
>name one (1) thing good about ori other than it's soundtrack and art style?
The overall pacing and structure of the game, you steadily gain new abilities while going through areas with unique elements that don't get recycled later on nor overstay their welcome.
>terrible story Okay >button mashing """"combat"""" Entirely your fault for playing the game like megaman and not realizing that you have an arsenal of abilities that can blow the fuck out of enemies while also doubling as platforming moves >boring escape sequences that are the antithesis of metroidvania gameplay What exactly is the problem with platforming gauntlets in a more platforming focused metroidvania?
Thomas Howard
>not enough to make a game good enough t make it better than hollow knight
Christopher Robinson
>platforming was good it's standard, any greater praise than that should be directed to the level design
Christopher Rogers
nigga are you blind? we have threads with 300+ posts at least a month.
Michael Hughes
>25 hour game >the simplest mechanics I've ever seen in a metroidvania >nothing interesting is derived from the simple mechanics Yeah, no. I played for 10 hours, it was decent fun, uninstalled. Absolutely nothing made me want to go back and play another 15 hours.
Easton Bennett
>It's GOTY but I've only watched someone else play it What the fuck is this bullshit about? You massive fucking faggot
Samuel Thompson
Looks like a flash game. I don't like the art style.
Eli Butler
what about OTHER game
Jeremiah Perry
Don't get me wrong with how much Nier and other Playstation games get attention on this board I get why you would make this thread but come on faggot did you even try?
you literally haven't played the game and you're bitching about it not getting praise or invisible people shitting on it. First day posting?
Samuel Anderson
Kill yourself
>Northernlion
Also that nigger doesn't even play the game, he's doing a blind any% speedrun of it
Josiah Morris
you know what, it is enough to make it a good game it isnt enough to make it the best game in the genere or anywhere near the top 5 but its a fun plataformer with solid gameplay, great art style and great music so yeah, its a good game, sorry your shitty clone made with some shitty vectors generator and easy animation software looks and sounds like shit so nobody wants to play it, shill harder tho
Caleb Foster
>implying I care about hollow knight solid 3/5 game, it just isn't trash like ori
my dude, you basically play ori the same way at the start as you do at the end
it also doesn't help that the game is incredibly linear and you never have to use your brain to navigate the utility you've been given
its a subpar platformer, since it's not difficult and super linear, and its a supbar metroidvania because it does nothing interesting with the world or how you navigate it
Luis Mitchell
you are the trash my man
Levi Williams
>you basically play ori the same way at the start as you do at the end
I didn't know that you practically fly through levels while slingshotting off of enemies at the very start of the game, I guess I just played the game wrong
Brandon Powell
cool ability too bad its basically worthless outside of the scripted escape sequences
Wyatt Rivera
How can another boring metroidvania be a 10/10 and goty contender?
Adrian Jones
I love this game but the frame drops in coliseum and dream boss fights got me killed so much I permanently ragequit. Has this been addressed by the dev or does it still run like shit in some parts?
Jonathan Gonzalez
>ori is bad
Ethan Rivera
>too bad its basically worthless outside of the scripted escape sequences
How did you get through all those other areas where it's required for traversal? With the power of shitposting?
Alexander Jones
double jump and glider, mostly
the only two mechanics that they actually made useful on a critical level
Kevin Ramirez
You really gimped yourself in terms of combat. The crowd control and juggling you can do with bash is great. Also, deliberately avoiding unlimited jumps as long as there's enemies around seems needlessly silly and shortsighted.
Thomas King
Can someone tell me who that guy is? I went to dirtmouth and jumped down to the forgotten crossroads and there was some flying guy who quickly flew away. I have never seen him before and I have 100%.
Ryder Gonzalez
Ori was linear babbys first "metroidvania" and hollow knight does look good.
Christian Adams
>watch
Ffs op, assuming this isnt bait just pirate the damn thing.
Definitely one of the better games released this year tho
Brayden Bell
It will get popular when it comes out on the Switch.
Tyler Green
Study this post Ignore the liberties taken with grammar and spelling and focus on the breakdown in logic.
Connor Baker
when we get playable hornet
Hunter Lewis
At least half a year.
Henry Morales
>vicariously through watching Northernlion play through it Why haven't you played the game for yourself if you think it's so good you e-celeb cock guzzling nigger
Brandon Taylor
shit sux
Noah Price
>it does the "Souls thing" Dropped.
Also the game is really fucking ugly. Flash-look is just as overused as pixelshit. Plus for at least the first hour the game is literally 3 colors (black/gray/white). Fuck off.
Joseph Flores
Question, do you like Rain World?
Eli Green
when we get abyssal dick
Alexander Bell
>Mantis Claw It's about fucking time shit
Charles Ward
god I fucking hate platformers with floaty jumps
Carson Long
part of me is impressed over the ability tp sexualize 2d insect stickmen but the other part of me isnt surprised
Jason Taylor

Hudson Jackson
I fought this bitch and that ass is fanfiction
Nicholas Williams
>Get dream sword >Back to dirtmouth, suddenly gravedigger ghost >Cool, what if I use the dream sword on h- What have I done.
Jeremiah Brooks
well the red dress thing is longer in the game so we don't really know what it hides
Colton Torres
I can't believe the dreamers weren't actually bosses What a disappointment.
James Ross
You have no idea what you're talking about because you watched someone else play it. Hollow knight is pretty good but it's nowhere near perfect.
Evan Jones
Most of them had bosses before them. I suppose the Dreamers already accepted their death when you used the dream nail so wouldn't fight back.
Mason Peterson
>sucking a game's cock this hard >advertising for some literally who e-celeb faggot
Did you have to train to fit this many dicks in your mouth or was your jaw just naturally limber?
Parker Taylor
Yeah, but those bosses were kinda bad honestly Also no giant spider boss before the beast
Liam Thomas
I'm 8 hours in and I feel like I'm just scratching the surface. I've been trying to find all the secrets and shit.
Caleb Wright
>I've been playing the shit out of this game >vicariously >through a youtube >only true 10/10
This is what we've become?
Listen chico. If you haven't played a game. you don't get to comment on it.
Jason Jenkins
>calling a game a GOTY contender and the only true 10/10 to come out this year >without even playing it
Gabriel Kelly
>a game with generic indie art style >generic metroidvania >GOTY
You guys are disgusting.
Hunter Jackson
Every Metroidvania I've ever played is better than Metroid.
Asher Thompson
There is a giant spider in the deepnest near the start, when you break through a wall, but he's not that good a boss either really
Justin Gomez
I agree but the game has plenty of bosses. Very few bosses were related to story though.
Gavin Lewis
that was my first boss.
Dominic Kelly
I fought him, he was kinda boring
Levi Harris
The game is shit, m8. Stop vicariously sucking cock and play a good game for once.
Levi Green
Hey, I agree that OP should play the game himself instead of being a pleb.
But I hope you're not hating on NL.
Brandon Smith
stop posting
Daniel Butler
>10/10 for an admittedly good game that pushed like no boundaries whatsoever
Yeah. No.
Angel Ramirez
Wait how did you get to deepnest without any other upgrades
Luke Price
>I've been playing the shit out of this game vicariously through watching Northernlion play through it
Absolutely disgusting
Nicholas James
>tfw the devs live in the same city you do.
It's about time Australia got back into the industry. After losing multiple dev studios here, it's nice to see one getting it's name in the spotlight.
Christian Bell
>undertale shit >goty lol good one
David Hall
We all played it, enjoyed it and then zelda came out, followed by Nier, and Persona 5 in a few days. I imagine we're all occupied.
Dominic Rogers
>Implying ori was anyhing above medioce >implying hollow kniht isn't a 8/10 at the very least
Yeah, fuck off, fag
Lucas Taylor
>and not floaty ragdoll 2016 That's exactly what it was though
Adam Reed
It has nothing in common with Undertale. Good to know you opinions are fair and unbiased, though.
Carter Williams
You don't even know bro.
Christopher Long
If made by any other company, For Honor wouldn't have half as much of the problems it still does to this day.
Elijah Mitchell
not canon and gross
Wyatt Scott
SHO H O
Julian Torres
I agree, there is better-quality fanart available.
