Thread 720004968

No wonder this took 7 years of development.
Are there any other platformers with boss fights of this quality?

*starts pissing*
Anybody who posts after me in this thread is standing ankle deep in urine.

>attack once every 20 seconds
I like this game but some of the boss designs can be a bit ridiculous in terms of a lack of player agency

plenty
the game has good boss fights but this kind of thing is not exactly out of the ordinary for the genre
off the top of my head, rabi-ribi, metroid dread, nine sols, and the DS castlevanias had good boss fights too

>>720004968 (OP)
I figured your webm would be ironic bullshit but that actually looks fun

>>720004968 (OP)
define quality in this context

>>720005552
Boy howdy I hope you are using the tools, cause that WEBM sure wasn't and they sure would make the fight easier.

that looks like a shittier rabi ribi boss

>>720004968 (OP)
Looks like a boss from Zelda Link's Awakening for Gameboy in 1993. Except we are in fucking 2025

>>720006062
lots of flashing lights

>>720005237
Based.
That said, I thought nu/v/ loved Hollow Knight, what changed?

>>720004968 (OP)
the 2 dancing bugs one is fun too

>>720004968 (OP)
It gives power point presentation vibes

>>720004968 (OP)
Illuminous Avenger iX 2 I guess

AAA is supposed to be the vanguard of gaming’s future, pushing better graphics, bigger and better gameplay, etc.

Unfortunately, they have abdicated in their duty. Indies are forced to fill the void, and since these teams don’t have the capital or manpower necessary to push the limits of what’s possible, they retreat to older, cheaper formats that they are able to pull off. Like 2D side scrollers. I think all of us would prefer AAA to get their shit together and make the ultimate video game where you can do anything, but they won’t.

>>720004968 (OP)
What zone do you get the double jump in? I just want to get all the traversal stuff asap.

What's the point in making good amd expensive AAA videogames if this >>720004968 (OP) is what the audience is really all they want and looking forward to?

I'm pushing 40.

>>720006253
I do use tools. I'd use them more often if they weren't tied to directional input

>>720006826
It’s because AAA sucks. If someone made the ultimate adventure game where you can be anything and do anything, beautiful graphics, flawless gameplay, deep and 200+ hours of content, most people would be all over it. Just look at BG3. That’s a game that can only be made with a lot of money and manpower. If all AAA games were as good as that, I could imagine the indie market being a lot smaller

I just came here to say there is a Savabe Beastfly boss with lava floor and fire spitting adds.

Have a good day.

>>720006621
>AAA

throwing lots of marketing money at a crappy game is like lipstick on a pig.

>>720007336
that doesn't really have anything to do with what he said

>>720007336
You're too young for Miss Piggy, but damn that pig is fuckable.

>>720007043
Modern AAA games aren't in the best shape, but neither people taste and standards for what makes good videogames is. The fault for the industry being stale isn't entirely because of the companies but mainly because people who plays videogames have reached peak stupidity than ever before

>boss has better, cooler and more abilities than the main character
yikers

>just made it to the gauntlet that forces you to fight 20 enemies + 3 minibosses
man FUCK this shit. it was managable for the one miniboss but the two of them just corner the fuck out of you and you can do nothing but get hit or die trying to manuever over two whole bosses that take up half the arena side by side.

>>720006989
You and me both, namefag brother.
But why did the kids turn on their indie favorite?

>>720006253
>implying Hollow Knight fans are good at games
>implying Hollow Knight fans have played very many games at all

That being said I liked Trobio a lot. Still, for fuck's sake, the way these people talk about Silksong's bosses it's like they've only played two videogames in their entire life.

>>720008360
They're fickle little faggots.

>>720004968 (OP)
TROBBIOOOOOO
God damn his fight is fun.

>>720007968
I beat the fatty duo by having both of them side by side instead of letting them sandwich me.

>>720005552
I could have done 3x as many attacks as OP. There were so many openings OP is a shitter.

Mogged by ori

>>720004968 (OP)
That actually looks awesome.

>>720004968 (OP)
is this meant to be sarcasm? this seems like a fairly basic boss fight... like it's not terrible at all, for what it is it looks well-executed, but you can tell it's designed so that a newbie can finish it on their first go without too much trouble

>>720008963
I did not care for Ori and the Will of the Wisps. It insists upon itself.

Looks pretty basic, and honestly boring. You just stand there and poke the boss once in a while?

>>720008375
Why isn't hunter's march on the graph?

>>720004968 (OP)
shit kinda looks like cuphead

>>720004968 (OP)
>>720004968 (OP)
>>720004968 (OP)

Looks tedious and eye melting

>>720004968 (OP)
Why are there so many retarded particle effects

Looks like a basic area denial boss testing your movement. What's particularly standing out to you as great?

>>720004968 (OP)
Cuphead, way better actually.

>>720004968 (OP)
What's so special about this webm? The flashing lights?
