Anyone play this yet?

I'm about 6-7 hours in.

It's nice.

someone post a torrent please

This. I just want to try before I buy.

you do realize you can play 2-3 hours and refund, right?

>played last night
>beat these Mantis Lords, ended up in a dark, centipede-infested zone where I couldn't see shit
>thought for sure there was an end to it or stag station SOMEWHERE
>lead back up to Fungal caverns after about an hour, but no way to get to the area proper
>forced to back track all the way back to Mantis Village with 1700 Geos, stumbling blindly through the dark dodging centipedes and spiders

Holy shit

>refund
you're assuming that i'm willing to fork out the money in the first place.

...

where the fuck do I go after beating hornet and getting dash? I've been backtracking for hours

Queen Station, upper right portion of the screen, dash across there

The Lantern the Jew in Dirtmouth sells is invaluable. Made the area a lot more manageable.
Down into the Fungal Caverns. There's a branch early in Greenpath downward. Full of Jellyfish and then Queen's Station. From there, you gain access to the Fungal Caverns and a valuable item deep in there.

Yeah I bought that with all the Geos I saved up killing those fucking centipedes

the train station? it's a locked door

>bug aesthetic

It begins

Nah higher up than that, the very top right

Jump up the platforms on the left and leap from the large platform at the top

I have to use bluetooth when using the ps4 controller, which makes it lag just a little bit every now and then. It's also difficult to wall jump because of that. Sometimes it just doesn't register that I'm trying to jump.

Side note, anyone know how to fix this issue? I'd been using a wired connection with controllers for some time with ds4tool and I guess my controller has an issue with the micro usb port. So when you jiggle the wire a little sometimes it just disconnects. Anyway it did that several times before I knew that was an issue and now when I hook up any ps4 controller to the computer it doesn't recognize that a controller is connected. The controller will charge, but that's it. Both ds4tool and steam both say that there are no controllers connected when wired. Do you guys know how to fix that?

it's on skidrow

i shit talked the game in a previous thread but it's starting to grow on me to be honest...

it's still fucking stupid how you have to buy fucking map functionality and how there are so many dead ends

I have the worst experience with this

Sometimes I use DS4Windows and it connects fine, other times the controller just fucking works despite me not using the program

It's a total fucking crapshoot, but for this game I don't need external software and it detects the dualshock just fine, super weird

>2 hours is enough time to judge a metroidvania

Yeah. It also opens up a few dark areas.
There's one in Crossroads on the right side that gives access to a very shiny place.
It doesn't open up the one in Greenpath, but makes it traversable without blind luck.

Does anyone know how to fight the guy with the big horns in crossroads (the one that shoes up in Dirtmouth)? I went to the place he's marked on the map and no one is there
