Seeing as all the cuphead threads have turned into a maymay shitlord fest... Can we have actual discussion? Actual. Discussion. No maymays. No shitlords. Actual discussion on this game. I know its fucking hard but lets work on it together. Ignore shitlord/maymay posts. I want to hear actual complaints/compliments about the game with real discussion.
In my opinion: >Game is extremely hard and despite what shitters say it really is that hard of a game. You can easily spend 2-3 hours on a fight and people who watch you play think it looks hard as well. >It is super fun with super tight controls. Simple game mechanics make it highly attractive to old school players who fucking hate all the shit AAA devs shove in their games to pad it out. >(example being talent trees, level up systems, huge perk unlock list, etc) >Animations, character designs, and frames between animations are perfect. I've never seen a 2d game look this good. I love animation in general and this is god tier animation skill from the devs. >Music is amazingly well done. Gets you really pumped up.
All in all if you beat this game good on you. It's hard. All in all if you beat this game S rank you're god tier and we should commend you for your sacrifice.
I'm still playing through the game myself but just beat the robot fuck he was tough.
Just finished the 6th pacifist RnG, how 2 get black and white filter?

I agree that the game is hard, idk why people treat ot like a bad thing though (I know you aren't OP i mean people in general.) I want a harder game. It makes it more fun a lot of times. People always try to say modern games like cuphead arent hard compared to older games, but ive played older games and dont feel like theyre necessarily any harder than cuphead. But they can both still be hard, and im glad about that. I want hard games. And this is coming from a wageslave working a 9-5 5 days a week.
Hudson Brooks
Those were the best days of the Cuphead saga. Miss them now, didn't think I would.
Caleb Clark
haha clickbait articles lol!XD
talk to the npc
Jason Evans
Difference between older games and Cuphead is you have a limited amount of continues for older games. While Cuphead just lets you continue infinitely. Personally the only reason why they had continues in older games was to pad the game out and make it impossible for most players to play.
Take Contra III for example. It's an awesome game though continues is a huge huge spike in people's attempt at beating it.
Jose Rodriguez
Ignore shitlord maymay posts.
Kevin Robinson
so, whats your favorite song? mine's the island 1 theme
Jack Ward
there's a website for peoplelike you who get their fee fees hurt easily and can't filter bantz
I'm sure you can guess what it is
Kevin Flores
To me it had something in common with Super Meat Boy, great controls and mechanics with a good challenge that feels fair because of infinite continues. Seriously the reason older games feel "unfair" is because often you have to get to the last bass after fighting an already hard level and limited lives made that a chore. Ninja Gaiden with its time limit and weird checkpoint system comes to mind.
Kayden Hughes
why do those fireflies look like king kai
Brayden Bennett
I... fucking... love... the dice man theme when you're switching worlds.
John Edwards
>2 to 3 hours per fight Are you joking? I'm not even very good, and 30 minutes is the longest any fight should take to get A- or better. Maaaaybe an hour for later ones or expert fights.
Anthony Morgan
How long did it take you guys to S rank every boss and P rank the Run n Gun levels?
Adrian Cruz
>no shitlords
are you trying to make people hate this game on purpose?
Hunter Hill
>Cuphead >good
Fuck off shill. Try again when it's out on the Switch. It's garbage until then.
Asher Nelson
I also think that ones my fave, especially the first upbeat 5 seconds. Any idea what the track is called? Im trying to find an extended version on youtube
Matthew Cooper
29 hours of in-game time
Brandon Hill
the game is not that hard
Cameron Russell
I don't intend to S Rank every boss. A- or better on Expert is good for me.
I'm surprised any Sonybros noticed it wasn't on PS4, I thought they all played Bloodborne and Killer Instinct exclusively
Nolan Diaz
Just got all the achievements, great game overall.
Thank god there's no "S-rank all bosses" achievement. Fuck that shit.
Ryder Davis
>shitlord Christ, you do realize how childishly it sounds? Back to neogaf, faggot.
Kayden Hernandez
FUCK THE GODDAMN DRAGON NIGGER
Christopher Myers
>people on stream getting stuck no world 1 and 2 bosses >getting stuck on the bee or balloon man or candy princess for HOURS >beat them all within 3 tries Niggas is just retarded. Pick the right weapon and accessory for the job.
The enemy is gonna be above/below you and you have breakable bullets heading to you? Spread shot. Unbreakable bullets you have to dodge? Chaser. You've got clear shots? Charge shot. You need to stay high up to survive? Drop shot.
It's not rocket science
Alexander Harris
My biggest criticism is that there's no way to regenerate health; if you get hit at the start of a boss battle, you may as well restart as the later phases are harder.
That's not good design.
Easton Carter
>unironically using "maymay" and shitlord It's like you're asking for your thread to go to absolute shit, newfag.
Grayson Rivera
>non-regenerating health is now considered bad design
Kill yourself.
Oliver Ramirez
That makes me feel better I have 18h clocked in and still need to S rank Isle 2 & 3 (already did P ranks) I thought most of the people 100%'d the game in 10h or something since they're all saying how easy it is I guess they don't care about ranks
Tyler Brooks
Can only buy Cuphead, Total Warhammer 2 or Divinity Original Sin 2. Don't know which one to get.
There are plenty of bosses that have easier final phases than first phases though. The genie and the flower on expert are hard as fuck in the first phase, so it's fine if you take a hit.
Anthony Rivera
Even games harder than Cuphead have health pickups in their levels.
Nicholas Lee
I generally exclusively use Charge Shot + Spreadshot because they're both incredibly useful in almost all situations I never use anything but Smoke Bombs as my charm unless it's a plane boss of which I switch to coffee
Sebastian Garcia
I made the mistake of getting A+ in everything before beating the game
I was pretty mad when I found out about S-rank later on
Levi Wright
It isnt hard though. Its a shit tier contra using that shit tier cringefest old cartoon style. I hated that style back then, and i sure as fuck hate it now when millenial hipsters babs think theyre so cool.
Tje hardest part is managing to endure the artificial chromatic aberration long enough to actually beat the game without getting eyecancer
Samuel Lee
Can you use two different controllers for co-op?
I have an 360 wired and a DS4 that I want to use.
Matthew Morgan
Yeah I did the same even though I knew about the S ranks It didn't feel right moving on to the next boss without getting an A+ At least it makes getting the S ranks kind of easier
Nathaniel Young
>I hated that style back then Return to your slumber, traveler. These are still troubled times.
Tyler James
I dunno, I believe if you A+ a boss it would help with the S rank, because you'd memorize the patterns and learn ways of overcoming them
Elijah Parker
>Sonegroes are still this mad they can't play GOTY
Angel Cooper
>inciting consolewars begone
Luke King
>You can easily spend 2-3 hours on a fight
How fucking bad at video games do you have to be for this ahahahaha.
Carter Peterson
stop making threads
Andrew Davis
where do you think you are?
Jaxon Parker
oh shit, did cuphead do a Pepe reference?!
Easton Peterson
I beat this game in 3 and a half hours.
I literally can't understand how it takes people so long to understand repeating boss mechanics. Dragon is also a meme in terms of difficulty, the fucking bee was harder than him.
David White
So we're in agreement that this is where boys become men, right? Like fuck, why was this guy so much harder than all the other bosses?
Logan Carter
"Scrub Me Mama with a Boogie Beat" inspired DLC is happening when?
Hudson Robinson
How long has it been since bosses had legitimate git gud repeating mechanics? Dark Souls does it, and it's fairly easy for most of the boss fights, but it made people lose their shit.
Now it's just about shoving loot on you and making you stronger than them and they all have the same generic enemy feeling to them. Nothing interesting about them.
Dylan Reyes
I killed him my first go got A+ on second try got S once I beat the game easy as the Root Pack and Stageplay Sally
Colton Adams
Sup Forums.org?
Jack Perry
I beat it first time
Jeremiah Thomas
What's the lore on Cala Maria Innocent sea siren turned bad by the eels or evil sea witch putting on a pretty face?
Hunter Campbell
any way to map fire and lock to mouse instead of keyboard without using fucking macros?
Aaron Robinson
>I hated that style then
Fuck me how old are you?
Dominic Sullivan
This boss was multiple levels of BS but I absolutely loved the music and the aesthetics of this stage that I cant get enough of it
Have any (((journalists))) called the game racist for harking back to the 30's yet?
Jonathan Bailey
What cartoons specifically inspired this game? I know Swing You Sinners but that's it.
Jacob Davis
Bosses are 2 minutes long, come the fuck on.
Carson Gray
Fucking casuals I swear. If you get hit you may as well git gud you fucking faggot.
Cameron Morales
One of the devs mentioned Betty Boop a few times, and I obviously don't need to say who the pirate looks like
Ayden James
Show me your S ranks
Joshua Hughes
It's weird, I can listen to that and tell its good, but not like it at all.
I guess its a style of music I just don't like rather than "objectively" think is shit, I can tell its not shit, but don't like it.
I'm scared Sup Forums, please help.
Isaiah Ross
Literally pirate them all.
desu i've got them 3 and i've played warhammer II an absolute tonne since it came out, I got into Act II with divinity but it's not clicked like I hoped it would. Not to say it isn't an objectively good game.
Cooper Lewis
You got a link for Warhammer 2? I can't find one with any seeders
Kevin Peterson
Bimbo's Initiation, I've heard
Jayden Gomez
The Mouse and Cat boss is totally an homage to the short: The Fifth Column Mouse.
Gavin Diaz
The bee is the fucking worst boss goddamit.
Daniel Rivera
How the fuck do I dash while jumping? I can't hit buttons so fast! What am I some kind of e-sport athlete?
Hunter Ramirez
corepacks.com
might needs some updates, honestly reddit /r/crackwatch has got links, and is pretty well updated with it, I use it in case my privates don't have shit uploaded yet.
Lincoln Rivera
I beat that in like 3 tries with just charge shot what's your problem?
Nolan Jones
I beat it in 5 or 6. Still is fucking awful.
Daniel Davis
the only time I resorted to the weapon switch exploit to beat a boss
Jaxson Ward
How do you reliably parry off the pink cards in the King Dice fight?
I just used the cheese strat where you move behind his hand every time and use charge shot.
Jaxson Long
This boss is hot. I have trouble fighting her.
Colton Cruz
>old cartoon style = cringe kids are getting more and more retarded
Robert Long
100% is the first run, you can't get S rank on that. 200% is completing on Expert.
Oliver Myers
I don't know how to pirate
Julian Collins
They don't have 2 minute levels, though.
Leo Barnes
Masturbate first, to her if necessary.
Connor Harris
You were an adult in the 1930s? Also, it is color bleed, not chromatic aberration (and you can turn it off).
Jaxon Clark
Where are your A+ or S ranks?
Colton White
Is Cuphead the new Mario and Sonic?
Juan Edwards
solid 7 maybe 8/10, a bit too much chance and lulrandom for my taste but other than that it's good stuff. I never ran into any bugs people have mentioned aside from some "OH FUCK OFF" hitboxes, but I think that's by design. First game in I don't know how many years that made me throw my controller up in the air and have it land on the floor from pure annoyance and defeatism. Felt good.
default controls are poo, just rebind the dash to one of the triggers.
Jayden Campbell
Hey, did the Flower boss "break" for anyone else? I just beat him after he was locked doing nothing at all for the first three phases of the fight. Then he switched back on and started fighting me again in the last phase.
Jose Butler
Doubt it, but wouldn't be surprised. Mental gymnastics, stretching the imagination and an overwhelming desire to virtue signal's all it really takes.
