Just finished playing through this. What did I think of it?

You thought It was a masterclass in metroidvania. Sure it owes a lot to the games that came before it but it does everything so well and has a GOTY soundtrack and atmosphere. It’s gonna be hard to top this for future metroidvanias

you're not allowed to like it

It's unironically great

It was a generic metroidvania that will be forgotten within a few years.

Pretty good game for cheap, with some flaws. Made by a few filthy aussies with chump change, whereas garbage like Bloodstained needs millions and millions of dollars.

If your opinion deviates too much from this you're gonna get called a shill or a shitposter

Why did you reply to it? It's bait you dumb dumb.

There is a map. Have you never played the game?

It's good but extremely derivative

>Tripfag is retarded
Who'd have thunk?

Played for 3 hours have not come across any damn map.

I uninstalled it, I'm not here for bad game design.

>NOFUCKINGMAP
user...

...

Don't ever reply to me again

real talk
new dlc when?

Ignore the tripfag, they post the same bait in every thread.

I'm playing through it now and am really liking it so far. REALLY slow to start but once it picks up it gives me SOTN vibes.

The first area is designed to lead you to the first map, the only way you did not get it is if you deliberately ignored NPCs

Game wasn't made for retards you should try those educational games you can find in your kids toy section at your closes Walmart

Yeah, didn't ask for your opinions.
You can cease wasting my time.

remainder to immediately filter the fucking retards who are stupid enough to use a tripcode so that you can immediately dismiss any shitpost they might bring to any thread in the future.

also the game is good, but i wish there were more stations or a way to travel between benches, sometimes you just want to get to that section of unexplored map as quick as possible

>being this retarded
I'be heard stories about retarded tripfags but damn, never saw it in action

Should be soon, devs stated that it will be released shortly after Switch version, and the Switch version is supposed to come out in the first half of this year, I've seen people say Q1, but i'm not sure about that

never play metroidvanias and this is one of my favorite games of all time

Pros: Map size, combat actually requires dodging and evasion, soundtrack, visuals are surprisingly good. There's only 1 melee attack and 1 ranged attack, so combat remains balanced until the end.

Cons: No curved surfaces whatsoever, only rectangular platforms (WTF!!). Movement speed is too slow. It's weird how dying to a spike results in respawning at a mini-checkpoint. There's only 1 melee attack and 1 ranged attack, so combat lacks variety as it concerns your character (but not the enemies).

/thread

ok

Forgot to include the part where it has no map.

>It's weird how dying to a spike results in respawning at a mini-checkpoint
how is that weird?

I like it and I think it's a good game but it isn't my favorite metroidvania No map retards are still fucking retarded though.

List is 100% accurate, except for Django Unchained. That is a fucking movie, retard.

there's 4 melee attacks, 3 spells, and a bonus ranged attack if you wear a certain charm. the slopes thing is a little weird yea but i didn't even notice until someone pointed it out to me

>only one melee attack and 1 ranged attack
Did you not touch the charms?

>That is a fucking movie, retard.
if i watch it on my ps4 its a game

>here's only 1 melee attack and 1 ranged attack
>Movement speed is too slow
Explore more, there are charms/ hidden teachers that expand this.

>there are people
>on your board
>that still don't understand that tripfags are awful at everything
Anyways you thought it was good, although some of the bosses were lacking, like the jellyfish

There is a map though??? You get it in the first 20 minuets. A real complaint would be that you can’t see where you are on the map without wasting a pin slot.

It takes up one slot, you get more. And you can just take it off before a boss fight.

Yeah, it still kind of annoyed me though

Howling Wraiths and Desolate Drive are extremely situational, and not terribly useful for regular combat or speed runs. The shade versions are just upgrades, so they don't count. The only viable spell is Vengeful Spirit.

Quick Slash and Longnail are just minute length upgrades. They don't count.

That's it. /thread

>no map
Made me kek at the supermarket

for fucks sake guys, pic related

anyway, hollow knight is a great game

>howling wraiths is situational
You're fucking ret-

>speedruns
laughing real hard here

>Desolate Drive are extremely situational,
you're wrong about this one. dive is very useful for dodging attacks and avoiding damage. it gives you iframes after use, pushes everything away from you, and hits enemies at a fair distance

You'll probably disregard charms that make your attack ranged at max health, make you emit gas/spores, spawn friendlies that do damage, create rotating damaging shield or make your dash do damage as well.

>Howling Wraiths... extremely situational
Yeah, all of those situations where you've got soul and can stand next to a big enemy and hit them with a powerful point blank AOE. That's nearly every boss fight in the game.

>Quick Slash and Longnail are just minute length upgrades
Two things:
1. Quick Slash doesn't increase range, Mark of Pride and Longnail do.
2: Mark of Pride and Longnail are amazing as they allow much more freedom in down slashing.
