Meh, after a certain amount of time I look up a hint or two. I can't be fucked to wander around aimlessly for hours looking for something that I may or may not find. I'm 100% on puzzles so far without help, and about 80% on stars. Only on the C world though.

>>339654314
the one which is a big sundial where you have to.. well I don't want to spoil it even in spoilers. it's for a star in the base game, I think it's in A2 or 3. big big sundial on the ground.

The mere fact that co-op and the puzzle creator exist makes it pretty much impossible for Portal to be the better game.

Portal 1 barely scratched the surface of what the puzzle mechanics were capable of. It's like the best slice of a cake (story, atmosphere and pacing are way better in the first I'll agree), but the sequel is the rest of the cake.
>>
>>339654545

not all of them, I'm sure?
I loved systematically working my way to all of them, didn't look anything up and got em all. but then I do have oceans of time what with being a mental case neet.

That is how the star pieces made me feel.

A problem that can be solved is literally not a flaw.

Based on your retardo logic, you might as well complain that the fact that it isn't on NES is a flaw.

Amen, brother.
There was a thread about La-Mulana 2 earlier today. If you missed it, there were some nice news about the game, for example tidbits of the game's OST.

OT:
Okami. Combat system is OK. Biggest flaw is that it's too easy. All the bosses (beside the bonus one and maybe yami) are total pushovers. I really thought you'd unlock a hard mode after beating the game.
It's just kinda unsatisfying to beat an awesome dungeon with nifty puzzles only to 3 hit kill the boss.

Most of the skill required is knowing the heroes, items, etc by heart, so you will need at least 100 hours before you're able to play at the most basic level without mindlessly feeding.

Late-game damage sponge bosses (specifically Hush). The difficulty should come from their behaviour and patterns, not the fact that you have to keep shooting them for ten minutes straight.

It's fucking B O R I N G. I used to love Isaac but after like a few hours of playing everything before Mom is an absolute chore, and in general it's either boring and tedious or braindead easy based purely on RNG.

Nuclear Throne is the same game but way better.
