Find a single flaw.

>>723401652 (OP)
The marketing images are too scary.

>>723401652 (OP)
There isnt any kind of aid to find the last few chests/chalices. running around the whole map to get the save file from 99% to 100 was shit.
Also, you can get to the beginning of the DLC locations, but cant access them because you dont have Mea Culpa. ive wasted like 15 minutes trying to find shit about the sand doors only to find out that its a DLC thing.
Also i had a bug where the boss in the sunken cathedral didnt have music. people had this bug since the release apparently, but the devs never fixed it properly. i git rid of it by alt+f4'ing during the fight, then reloading the game.
Other than that the game is good though, one thing i liked about it way more than the first one is that you dont get locked out of the endings
>t. didnt buy Mea Culpa yet, want to replay the game on True Torment first

>>723401652 (OP)

animations are ugly as fuck
the 32/33 cherubs problem
fucking odon is much harder than any boss

>>723401652 (OP)
It's not Silksong.

I have this in my library, but know absolutely nothing about it.
Sell me on it. Post your gameplay/screenshots if you have anything saved.

>>723401652 (OP)
The area where you get the mace has unskippable tedium, with the rising and lowering the sand.

It has no secret ending or cool shit to find like the first game.

>>723402413
>>723402420
odon is harder than any shillsong boss.

t. i played both

>>723402594
it does have two endings though, anand a third with the DLC apparently. also, what stuff was there to find in the first game, i played it like 3 years ago, cant recall

the first game was so slow and boring, I didn't even consider pirating it

>>723402739
Let me see you beat Karmelita and Lost Lace with Hunter without cogflies, tacks and poison.

>>723402754
It had secrets

>>723401652 (OP)
>cool art direction
>dogshit game

>>723401652 (OP)
Bosses were a bit too easy, never had much friction going through the game.

>>723403178
ive 100% it but cant put my finger on what exactly are you talking about. i can only remember the Pilgrim guys quest where you last meet him at the pilgrims statue, and the Time trials you can find all around the map (god i seethed at these).

>>723402504
Did you play the first game?

>>723403446
nah just checked and it's the 1st game (i think) i've got in library not 2, oops. Wounds of eventide.
Questions stands for both of them though if you have anything to say on them

>>723402889

i beaten them with wanderer and fire. i stopped using cogly the moment i beaten the high halls gauntlet in my second try. this game is not hard, stop being a brainlet

>>723401652 (OP)
is the DLC worth it? is more coming out? I like to play stuff once it's fully "complete"

>>723402889
>Beat it without using these arbitrary restrictions

>>723403664
Both games are good imho. first one has more interesting bosses though, and as the other guy said, secrets."Wounds of eventide" is a DLC theyve included for free (thanks to the backers?) and has 3(?) new bosses, a new location and a new ending i believe.

>>723403664
It's one of the better metroidvanias of its genre with strong themes, concept and artstyle. The game shares a lot of mechanics and systems as HK so your mileage may vary depending on how you like those.

>>723403741
>i beaten them with wanderer and fire
Literally just as broken. If you didn't beat the entire game with Hunter then you need to shut the fuck up cause you didn't beat the game..

Just compare the first boss of each game, first game is a titan second game is a mini shitter. That's it.

the Bosses suck

>>723404283
There you go, theres the phrase. Can both of you just fuck off to one of the other like 4 silksong threads that are up to fling shit there? we talk about a better game here

>>723404283
wtf

>>723401652 (OP)
Price.

>>723401652 (OP)
It's ugly. I don't like how sluggish it feels to simply just walk forward or jump.

>>723401652 (OP)
It's pixelated.

>>723403664
Play the first one

I mean the 2nd is a good game, but it doesn't hit as hard as the first in ambience. The OST on both are boner inducing

>>723401652 (OP)
Boring ass game for artfags

>>723406084
What's boring about it

>>723406156
The gameplay, soundtrack, aesthetic, the level design. Pretty much all of blasphemous

>>723406641
>aesthetic
Nice bait.

>>723406641
but what about them makes them boring

>>723404097
>first one has more interesting bosses though
Maybe visually, but certainly not mechanically. Eviterno is the best of both worlds though, absolutely incredible fight both mechanically and aesthetically.

>>723404116

thanks, I'll bump it up the list and give it a go

>>723402413

Quick run down on Odon?

- the artist who did the cutscenes from the first game dipped so now all the art in this game looks terrible in comparison.
- you start out with only one weapon, which is initially pretty cool, until you realize that the weapons double as traversal equipment, so you're locked out of areas based on what you picked at the start.
- additional abilities are acquired in a very specific order and are pretty much contextual use, so that means you can't fuck around with trying to sequence break organically (i.e. you can glitch, but that's not playing the game naturally)
- the story is still this esoteric garbled nonsense that you have to put a lot of effort in to understand.
- the final boss is a bit underwhelming (but you get to fight the real final boss before him so it's ok)
- they charged you 10 dollars extra for the mea culpa sword, which should have just been in the game by default
- ultimately not as memorable as the first game, but still a solid 7/10

Carlos Viola is underrated
Make sure you play the first in spanish dub, it's kino

>the final boss is a bit underwhelming (but you get to fight the real final boss before him so it's ok)
It was so cool to see Eviterno the first time, super hyped for that fight, until he killed me like 50 times and now i hate that fuck.

>>723407837
yeah he's a cool boss, kinda reminds me of gehrman the first hunter from bloodborne, someone similar in ability to you as the player who is a powered up threat. it's definitely the highlight of the game.

>>723407269
Auditory kino

How is the movement and platforming in these games? On a related note, are there any cool movement upgrades or are they all pretty standard Metroid stuff?

>>723402739
Really? Guess I should have no tribals with Silksong the .

It's a metroidvania

>>723403862
imo the dlc isn't worth it. you get like two extra levels + mea culpa, which will replace the current sword in the game as "the better one"
I think there's 5 new bosses but it's been a while since I played so I may be misremembering.
>>723408150
it's functional, but can sometimes feel stiff and unresponsive, or very strict. that's fine, because the platforming is nothing to write home about. it's there but it's clearly not the focus. this is a exploration + boss battle sort of game. it's castlevania more than metroid.

>>723408290
It's actually not. Blasphemous is a search action.

>>723406797
>Maybe visually, but certainly not mechanically.
yeah, i was mostly talking about the visual and the style of the boss. a lot of them were pretty memorable imo
>Eviterno
yeah, hes a great boss. across two games for me its: The big snake from the DLC in the first game (love the aesthetic, though definitely not the best gameplay wise) >Eviterno (his ultimate when he's at like 25% HP was peak) >Crisanta (namely the 2nd phase)

Its currently on sale on switch, same for mea culpa.
Is it worth 15 + 8 euro bucks? I thought first one looked and sounded amazing, but played janky.

>>723406694
Wow dude totally not shit I've seen in Christian, medieval, and rock/metal art or other games before
>>723406761
The art is nothing special, the music is just generic le dark souls ambient strings diablo 2 shit, the level design is fucking terrible & the backgrounds make the tile sets look like fucking dog shit. Aesthetically it is shit i have seen 8 gorillian times, duuude church, duuude prison, duuude weed, i could go on, but I know you'll cope like faggots because you got your opinion from a youtuber

>>723410554
Why so jelly mad

>>723401652 (OP)
The cutscenes are a straight downgrade from the first game.
Tenor fucks up the quality, sorry about that.

>>723401652 (OP)
They patched the best boss fight to be casual friendly

>>723410851
>no argument
Kwab

>>723407036
It kills you in two hits, has way too many HP, summons infinite minions, is unpredictable, and has a phase 2 and phase 3 that get harder each time

>>723401652 (OP)
I didn't play it

>>723401652 (OP)
I miss the first game's cutscenes. The ones in B2 look fine, but nothing beats the original's pixel cutscenes.
