if a game comes out and no one talks about it, does that mean most of /v/ didn't like it?
because I don't really like hyper light drifter.
It means the shills didn't worked
>I don't like thing
ok
>>333048181
it seemed like a lot of people were pretty hyped about it.
it's a pretty game, and all the presentation aspects are great, but man does it feel like they didn't have time to properly play test this thing.
>>333048107
If literally no body is talking about a hyped release, it's because they are all too busy playing the game to talk about it.
Expect generals and threads everywhere to start popping up in the next few days as they complete it/play enough to be satisfied with it.
/v/ will typically only talk nonstop about a game day one if it's online/have some sort of massive history behind it, like The Division and Metal Gear Solid V.
>>333048107
>no one talks about it
that means no one played it
>>333048107
At lot of smaller releases sometimes take a while to pick up steam, even somewhat hyped ones like this. That or just nobody gave a shit.
>>333049015
>it's because they are all too busy playing the game to talk about it.
This argument is always retarded. It's a valid reason that there's normally more bitching than is necessary, but if there's people playing it there'll always be people stopping to shitpost about it too.
But le epic [greentext] 30fps lock[\greentext] m a y m a y

>F
>P
>S
There's been about eight or more threads about this game since its launch, with people discussing how to get past shit, how to beat bosses and the bullshit content that was cutout from KS. This shill thing its just a shitty meme
>>333048107
>if a game comes out and no one talks about it, does that mean most of /v/ didn't like it?
No, it means people are busy playing it, which in turn means the game is good enough to get their attention and drag them off of this shithole.
>>333048107
It means there's nothing to shitpost about.
Nu-/v/ are drama-whores. If they can't gossip about something, it's nothing to them.
>>333049227
>but if there's people playing it there'll always be people stopping to shitpost about it too.
And this is what makes you the retard;
Who's going to shit post in threads that don't exist?
What fans are going to get upset by and respond to shit threads when there's no fans around to see them?
Shit posters can't just fucking keep a thread alive by themselves, OP automatically auto-sages unless enough other people have responded, and even then the auto-sage is only removed for one post before coming into effect again until more people post again. It's 4chan's greatest anti-shit measure they've ever taken.
>>333048107
No, just means that shitposters found out that it's not very effective to shitpost about this game. There was a lot of shitposting initially ("It's only 2 hours long!!!!" even t hough the game had JUST released and no one had even beaten it yet) but that quickly died out it, even after people tried to divert shit by posting [i]one[/i] guy in the dev team posting shitty opinions, even though the game had no ideology or anything in it.
The game has flaws though and people are upset that there's content that was promised missing from the game. Still, it's a good game for what it is.
Also, a heads up, the game's KB+M controllers are pretty damn sucky from what I've heard. It works great with a x-box controller but I would probably suggest not getting it if you aint got no controller.
I seen a few 400+ post threads since it came out.
>>333049713
>[i]one[/i]
>>333049870Old habit.
>>333048107
How long is this game? Any replay value? Looks honestly great and challenging.
>>333049015
>next couple days
lmao it takes 4 hours to complete
>>333050140
>Literally everyone who's going to play this game bought it the minute it released
Most sales happen in the first two weeks, you yolo swaggin lahmower.
We just had a thread and it hit bumplimit
>>333049953
Not really unless you're a masochist who like's stuff like KH's critical mode. New game+ makes it so you can only take two hits at most with all the skills available but no upgrades at all. Still though, the game really leaves you wanting to play more.
Fuck the haters, its pretty fun so far though a bit brutal at times.
What upgrades do I want to get next? have 4 triangles up north and just multi-dash. I am thinking grenades, but it seems like the sword skills may be more useful in the long run.
>>333048107
it's pretty fun, i love the art style and music, those alone make it worthpirating
wouldn't pay for it tho since it's not particularly long for how much it costs and apparently they didn't add most of their kikestarter stretch goals or whatever
>>333049015
there have been threads, it's just full of "where do i find x?" "what does y upgrade do?" because the level design is boring "hug the wall to find secrets" shit and the game doesn't have any tooltips to explain things in detail because it's "hard"
There were 300+ post threads about it yesterday. Mostly people getting mad someone didn't like the game, other people getting mad people liked the game.
>this game is shit, it was rushed, 30 fps, I finished it in 8 hours, how did it take so long to complete
>fuck you, the dev is dying, I love this game I have 80+ hours in it, just wait for the DLC it'll make everything right
The crystal area boss is pushing my shit in.
Also how do you get the first triangle piece in the first area? The one whose entrance has a bunch of dudes in front of it and once you enter you can't go on because the way forward is barricaded. What happens when you get all 8 of the pieces in an area?
Also the game at times feels slugish and unfair, I mean it doesn't help that every attack stunlockes you with 0 zero iframes/recovery frames which means a single attack can kill you at any given time. Still it's okay so far but I am glad I didn't pay for it.
>>333050863
>What happens when you get all 8 of the pieces in an area?
You get access to a new section with a good amount of secrets,like costumes, multiple money things and in some cases, additional weapons.
>>333049953
I think it's around 6-8 hours if you rush trough it without trying to get any secrets and shit but just complete the "Main mission"?
I think it took me 15-16 hours to get most secrets, am only missing a few keys and that's without looking up a guide. Replayability depends on if you like a challenge or not since there's new game+ which lets you keep the sword and dash upgrades but sets your maximum HP at 2.
>>333050863
The crystal boss is the hardest in the game desu, even the final boss didn't give that much trouble. All other bosses are very easy.
Also white cape + orange sword combo looks cool as fuck
Anyone spot how much stuff is missing?Almost all of it.
>>333048107
I like evangelion too
I dont care for a game where I can't tell a floor from the wall. Ugly ass game. Passed.
>>333051360
co-op sin't in the game? i took notice of this game like once then forgot about it. have the game now so i'm fairly certain the co-op isn't in.
>>333051360
so we are missing 5 fucking whole areas, a loot/market system and challenge mode? Damn I really like this game but this is outrageous. Any explanation for this? Will it come out with console releases?
How the hell do you time multidash to chain endlessly? I consistently get 3 dashes every time but never more.
>>333051683
they're supposedly going to add it later, which is a pretty poor way of doing it since i probably won't want to go through the story mode again just to see some new areas. would've been nice to see it all the first playthrough
>>333051772
the first few have a longer delay then you have to start pressing it faster after that
>>333051360
Oh right, even the wii u port is cancelled, well it's not certain but probably.
>>333051683
It probably proved to be too ambitious for them. They're new to the whole thing and presumably sacrificed a lot of shit in favour of getting it out now, even t hough it's pretty late already.
Also very possible they cut content because it was unbalanced or boring too.
>that feel
>>333052171
Well, when you use game maker as your engine, you can't port to it, so it's mostly his fault.
>>333052374
isn't undermeme getting a wii u port?
>>333052482
undermeme has the same problem. he used a shitty engine so now he has to make the game from the ground up if he wants it on the wii u. not gonna happen
>>333048107
I'll wait until its on sale. People who have played it say it's not very long so I ain't paying €18 for it.
>>333048107
No, it means that it's not very popular.
It's an okay Zelda-inspired action-adventure.
Playing it now
I don't get how the multidash work
>>333052812
tap the dash key as soon as the first one has ended.
>>333052812
Nevermind, got it a few seconds after this post.
>>333051937
Awesome, got the feel down and managed to get the 100. Fuck doing 800 in a row though.
Have another 3 monies, what to get next.
>>333048107
We've been having threads about it every day. I'm interested in it, but that price point and that game length really turn me off.
>>333048214
Hi Tumblr.
>>333053043
the dash slash and grenades are the most useful
>>333049617
You're both retards. If a game isn't being discussed then its just not a very interesting game, any other conclusion is a wild assumption.
>>333053149
Which dash slash, the sword store or the dash store? The sword store one looks pretty cool. Tempted to get grenades too but if the cooldown is so slow I might not use them much.
>>333048107
I beat it
Was a good game
Perfect difficulty without being bill shit
Recommended
Apparently you can change your outfit, how?
>>333053261
the sword store, the dash store one is pretty useless
the grenades do have a rather long cooldown, but they are really powerful
>>333048107
I was really enjoying it until I realized I was just pixel hunting against the borders of every area for a path hidden under a tree or something. They took the "hide bonus stuff in obscure places" idea and implemented it into main paths to the extent that it's frustrating and not fun. I pretty much stopped playing when I stumbled into a secret path under a tree, spent 5 minutes dashing into walls to find the right path, then died from full health instantly with zero indications as to how, why, or what I could have done to prevent it. Pretty bummed because I love most things about it, but the level design is baffling.
>>333053364
you need to unlock one first, they are hidden in some secret areas. Then you can change in you house, there are three computers, one for the outfit, one for the sword and one for the drone companion
>>333048107
It means it wasn't good enough for people to remember or talk about it much but not bad enough for people to get pissed off enough to post about it.
Having played it myself, that's pretty much how I'd describe it. I didn't like it enough to play it for even hour but I didn't hate it enough to make threads about it.
anyone got a soundtrack download?
I keep hearing some fucking ringing noise at some areas that gets louder when I get closer to some random place.
What the fuck is this shit? Am I going crazy?
I finished the north section and was unimpressed. Don't feel like playing the game any further
>>333048181
If no one is shilling, are there still shills?
>>333048107
Because everyone who played the pirated noticed its a clusterfuck of cliches in yet another pretentious pixel shit, the dev is litteraly kotaku incarnate.
>>333051360
HAHAHAHAHAHAHA
Oh man, whats the percentage of kickstarters that aren't a total scam ?
This game was an eye opener to me of how much people are bad at video games. You have people from /v/ to the Steam forums saying how they've died over 50 times to East Boss.
I can't believe I'm in the 1% of people who didn't have any trouble with any boss.
They felt satisfying to fight them, but too short.
>>333054702
the percentage that even come out at all is pretty low, and out of that almost none come out on time or with all the promised content. kikestarter is for people with no/minimal experience in development or production and almost everyone bites off more than they can chew
>>333055021
East Boss is easy, but West boss is a bitch. Or at least it was for me as I had no dash upgrades
>>333055021
>East
Are you sure? Because I only see people having trouble with the West boss, and he IS a bitch if you go west first.
East and North bosses done. East was a walk in the park, North was a bit tougher.
West is a bastid. Got him down to about a quarter health. Need to dash moar.
>>333054702

Grenades are great, get them. Great for taking out mobs in one go.
meme game
It's a bunch of broken promises in the form of an extremely short game (4 hr average completion time)
Nearly none of the kickstarter goals nor stuff from the developer's blog was implemented
>>333050863
>Also the game at times feels slugish and unfair
This. There's definitely considerable input lag present and it pisses me off.
>>333054476
I'll shill a bit then. If you enjoy fast action rpg gameplay, the combat has rarely felt as good for me as this game. But you will get the most of it if you enjoy finding secrets, get all the upgrades, outfits, etc as it is a big part of the game.
New game+ also adds a good challenge since you only have two life pieces. I personnally did a "get whatever" first run, after it I really wanted to find everything in new game+, and the hard fights behind the most secret areas are really rewarding.
what the fuck
they just ripped it from evangelion
>>333056915

Yeah, there's a noticeable lack of killing all men in the game.
>>333048107
Keep it coming Marketer I still wont buy it.
does anyone have a link to the download of the update that fixes the controller thing?
How do you get good at dodging repeatedly?
I have gotten the upgrade, but it seems super wonky.
>>333057868
You shill it more on 4chan.
That way you are added more money to your bank account.
>>333057868
There's a pretty finicky window within which you have to hit the dodge button again. It takes some practice to nail it down. Spend a few minutes in the dodge test room to get a feel for it. That's what I did, and even that was enough for me to be able to nail several in a row when I need to.
>>333058024
Alright. I managed to get 18 in a row, but after that I could barely get fucking 4 in a row.
>>333057868
I can reliably get to 40-50 (record 275, but I've been trying that 800 record for an hour so fuck it for now).
You have to nail the timing, it's right after the end of your first dash. If you can't do it, you're most likely pressing the button too soon.
>>333048107
what the fuck is the plot in this game? does shit get revealed when you get the 8 triangles, and all the tablets?
>>333056915
your late
What's with the doors asking for several pieces (not the triangles) to open? I've killed 2 bosses and only found one piece.
>>333058390
Some anon put it neatly for guys like you.
Whats the best upgrade and boss order? I got the grenade first and feel like its a decision that will haunt my dreams.

That fight was meh, but that West boss, fuck.
I kept being fucked because Dark Souls muscle memory kicked in and I dodged right into his attack.
>>333058785
The most "useful"read:easiestupgrade path is partially dependent on boss order. I went north first and took dash shield before I hit the boss, but multidash would've been so much more helpful. However, dash shield has a boss for which it's very handy (east).
Just pick whatever you want. Everything's possible regardless of what you take.

Do the colored cloaks and swords do anything different or just change looks?

>>333061109
The trick is to not put up with bullshit arbitrary challenges and write a script to do the tedious work for you.So, yes, cheating.
>>333061038
How?
>>333049557
Yeah because you're on /v/ 24/7 and would know that. Retard
>>333061161
Some do. The purple one from the dashing challenge cuts stamina consumption of everything, it's very useful for the dash attacks. The white one speeds up the pick-up time for curatives. The one from the arena beheades every enemy you kill as if you killed them with a dash or charge attack. The other capes are still in testing.
>>333060130
this is the only great boss from whole game, i died over 50 times before i recognize the pattern.
this also the moment i realized the shotgun is OP and can solve every boss problem quickly

8 triangle doors is just a gauntlet. Beating the gauntlet give you access to one of the monoliths, which in turn give details about the history. People have already cracked the code and the translation is available on steamforums/reddit if you are interested.
>unresponsive controls, 3 hit combo sometimes pauses before 2nd or 3rd hit and sometimes dash cancel doesn't even work after 1st/2nd hit.
>uninteresting exploration, squared sprites, squared sprites and more squared sprites.
Yeah, I'm not feeling it.
>>333061656
I'm not done with the game yet, but he is far and away my favorite so far. Makes me wonder if there could be a boss rush mode for thisassuming the devs ever have anything to do with it again
>>333050380
Left side has a lot of projectiles and is sort of required for the boss.
HLD is shit, we talked how garbage it was a day or so after release.
It's such a short game so there really wasn't much to talk about.
>It's shit?
>It's shit.
>>333061656
I was satisfied with all of the bosses besides the frog. They were all challenging in their own way and that's what makes a boss good. The minibosses in the south area were a nice surprise and figuring out their pattern and openings was fun.
>>333061258
How do? Link me
>>333062419
What is, reflect blade?
I now have multi-dash, dash slash, and dual grenades after beating north and east bosses and getting a decent amount of upgrade mats. I will go for reflect blade next since it seems potentially useful since its rather hard to aim and snipe shooter enemies without being hit. Reflecting their shit back instead of shooting back seems much easier.
>>333058878
I liked that boss.
though in general the bosses are pretty fun imo. good music for em
>>333061508
do they all do something or are some just for looks? Ive only gotten the brown/yellow one so far
i just don't find this game fun at all. am i missing something? the combat is wonky and it feels like you need more invincibility frames to your dodge
it was like a crappy version of zelda with less direction, weird controls, and a whole lot of dumb guesswork
>>333048107
I was really hyped about HLF
Then two years passed
Didnt even pirate it
>>333062763
its just not for you I guess. Im fine with it. invincibility is something you can buy. theres a shield dash upgrade. Much like Bloodborne, the dodge isnt about i-frames but about getting out of the way.
combat can be wonky, but because it's not meant to be in your face hack n slash. you are meant to slash a few, dash out, dash in and slash again. and there are other combat upgrades. you can get different guns for instance, and some new sword moves
>>333062813
Well, they literally didn't implement anything new after 2014 / late 2013, so it doesn't really matter anyway.
>>333061258
Link please?
>>333063081
>Much like Bloodborne, the dodge isnt about i-frames but about getting out of the way.
But bloodborne is literally i-frames, do you know how dodge roll works in souls games?
I understand the point, but you're wrong in that regard.
How the fuck do I get this last triangle in the west area /v/?
It's pretty visually, but the gameplay isn't really resonating with me very well. Story seems interesting. I will keep going through it but it's not what I was hoping it would be.
>>333063628
It's underground. There is a guide on steam with screenshots, fatser than explaining

I think I made it out to be more advanced than it actually is. Just run this in GlovePIE:

CTRL + M starts or stops the auto-dash.
B and N decreases and increases the delay between clicks (if you want to play around with the timing).

>Look mom! My CS degree is finally paying off.
>>333063816
>>333063857
Gee, thanks.
>>333063913
Can't get it above 275 dashes.
>>333059368
Wait, you can fight them in different order?
>>333064956
Yes, as far as I know there's nothing stopping you.
>>333064956
nothing stopping you from doing east first.
>>333064956
Of course you can, the only path not available from the start is South.
>>333063913
Do I just press B or N in game or CTRL + B/N?
>>333060130
I got to this boss with no healing items. I had to use the first gun becuase shotgun took too long. My strategy was to make him shatter all of his adds first and then dance around his jump smash and shoot when I can. He was the hardest boss by far. If I had healing items it probably wouldn't have been bad at all
>>333059368
north was the first one i killed and the hardest so far, about to go kill the one i left for last over at south
>>333065235
>>333065198
>>333065169
I had no idea, this is the first time I heard about this game and it looked nice, I bought it fromKATand I took the north route first, no idea why, but I like it so far, going to the east at the moment.
>>333065410
I had one healing item, three HP at the start, no upgrade besides the reflecting slash
It was hell.
>>333065575
I'm not sure how I would have beat him without the multi-dash. I tried to just do normal dashes but there was too much delay after it to avoid the big smash.
Reflecting slash might have helped some when he shoots the bolts
>>333065410
>My strategy was to make him shatter all of his adds first and then dance around his jump smash and shoot when I can
Are you me?
My first boss, although I got healing items.
>>333064759
That's weird. I tried it again just to be sure and it managed to go past 800. Is the game running at full speed the whole time on your computer? If it helps, I didn't move the mouse at all after starting the script, and dashed over the middle lower panel.
>>333065368
CTRL + M to start/stop the scipt.
Only N or B to change the delay.
>>333065765
Nah he ws my 3rd boss. Frog and bird I beat with no deaths but I died way too many times on this guy. I was used to Dark Souls where rolling gives iFrames and I don't think dashing does in this game so I kept dashing into damage
Turns out the crystal boss was easy, all you have to do is let him slam into your charged sword attack, then you dash away before he does the 2nd hit and get ready for the next slam. Rince and repeat while dodging the other 2 piss easy to dodge attacks.
>>333066012
I had the mouse placement weird. Worked perfectly, thank you!
>>333065557
North seems to be the easiest one to do first. I dont know but it just felt like the best place to go first
How the fuck do I get through this passage?
>>333067140
have you tried hyper light drifting?
>>333067080
Same here. North, then east, west boss was the most pain imo.
>>333067140
DOUBLE DASH!
>>333067080
I did north first as well and then east. East seems to have alot more upgrades to grab and the boss is easier, but some of the mob rooms and ranged enemies seem meaner than the north, so its hard to say which one would be better to go to first.
>>333067140
Multi dashing, it's a real pain until you get the rhythm then all those puzzles just become mildly painful
>>333067239
Yes. I am still getting hit so I cant dash through all of them before my health depletes...
Where is the offline challenge mode? i think its in game like the football minigame, but where?
>>333067427
There is an arena in the city, behind the locked door (15 keys needed). Don't know if that's what you mean by challenges, but it's pretty fun.
>>333066018

It's weird how people are having dramatically different pain points.

either multi dash or dash and use health packs when your health gets low
>>333061365
he said "8 or more". he's seen 8 threads already and there is likely to have been more than that which he hasnt seen. why would he need to be on 24/7 for his point that he has seen 8 threads so far to be valid?

You want that upgrade? Break the crystal, destroy the box, bait the crystal explosion and grab it. If you are at max health you sould survive even if you get comboed
>>333067812
I've just started exploring the South area. I ran into a cool-looking midboss (with a great theme, too) and now I'm running into endless streams of robutts. Time for a break.
Did anyone explore that huge dark room up North? The one with the mounds and mounds of corpses?
>>333067427
South east of the city, you need 12 keys to open it.
>>333067759
You can bait the crystal explosion by stepping on and off quickly. The spikes won't come out for a bit after they've fired.

What an ugly looking game.
Not even good sprite animation just clustered in every area
3/10
Sega megadrive had better sprites
The spritework is goddamn eyesore
Reminiscent of the 16-bit classic era my ass. Why do indie devs ALWAYS fuck up the spritework? They NEVER look like 8-bit or 16-bit games.
>>333067540
I found the Bird the hardest. Frog was a pushover all things considered (I had plenty of upgrades from exploring other routes), Crystal Wolf guy was taking care of his buddies and watching his sword strike pattern.
But the Bird super disco tile pattern later phases got me every time.

Beat it with keyboard and mouse, it took awhile getting used to and the first boss battle was a pain in the ass for me (The frog, embarrassingly enough) but it was smooth sailing from there.
Died five times to the heirophant, once to the west boss, and I honestly thought the southern boss was a mini-battle and was pretty surprised when I had accidentally beaten the zone.

Playing it right now.
I find it... I don't know, big issue I guess is the artistic direction is what I like most about the game so far.
It's solid. But it's nothing beyond that. Going in without expectations it will give you a couple of nights of entertainment I guess. Serviceable, but nothing to be enthused about, sadly from a gaming standpoint.
The game's a fucking shitshow.
On top of cutting most everything they promised, the game is 30fps locked, which is inexcusable for a fucking pixelshit game on the PC.
It's also far too short, relying on you getting stuck because of the difficulty to lengthen the play time.
On top of the blatant fucking plagiarism of imagery from evangelion. This isn't even something you can classify as an homage or reference it's straight up tracing and recoloring or even lifting the fucking angels and using them as enemies.
I'm incredibly disappointed, and I was so excited for this in the first place.
I pirated it and I STILL feel like I need a refund, that's how disappointing it is.

Wasn't that hard for me, albeit I kind of chickened out actually confronting him.
Make sure you have multiple dashes, first thing you should do is lure the boss to the corners to destroy the entombed troops. Takes a little timing but his slashes destroy their crystals in one swing.
You also need to be able to reflect projectiles, from there just dodge him when he's trying to kick your shit in. Then reflect the bullets he shoots at you to damage him.
Takes awhile, but the fight is much more manageable.

Good to know, not buying it
I'm playing it right now, and I'm honestly enjoying it a lot. I find myself exhaling heavily after each fight, not even realizing I was holding my breath during the fight. The game is hard, but not punishing. You can get fucked up pretty quickly but you restart at the beginning of the area with no penalty. I like that a lot because the game encourages you to just try again, and you get that wonderful satisfaction of getting just a little bit better with each try. The boss fights are also really damn fun, very hectic dodging and then punishing them is satisfying. The music is okay, nothing incredible in my opinion, but suitable for the setting and mood they're aiming for. The graphics are passable, I don't hate them but I also don't love them. The animations are fairly slick and the level design is pretty meaty. 9/10 from me thus far.
>>333070629
Didn't know IGN posted on /v/
>>333059368
I did North boss first too, and it was pretty tough but nothing backbreaking.
What I'm really impressed by are the people who did west boss first. I mean how are you even supposed to damage him if you don't have the reflect upgrade?

>>333071054
Which two bosses did you do? I started with North boss who was fucking tough for me, but after that I got some upgrades and its been pretty fair. Didn't have much trouble with west boss.
>>333070889
When he switches from sword combo to AoE attack you have a window to land 2/3 hits. I'd imagine people whittled him down like that.
Good fucking luck trying that, though. I love my reflect upgrade.
>>333071189
Fuck, the timing on that must be incredibly tight. Dodge the last sword hit, dodge in, smack him like twice, and then dodge the fuck out before he turns you into a kebab. Even harder since you don't have the chain dash. wew
>>333070889
Hit him after he lunges two times at you.
Shoot him when he's standing still
I had the reflect upgrade but that's how I did most damages.
Where do you find keys?
>>333071185
North and East. I found North was easy once you got the attack pattern - though yeah, getting to know the attack zones took a bit of trial and error.
>>333070261
yes, he made the sound track to fez, and it follows.
>>333048107
I'd say the game was... Okay.
Looks 9/10
Gameplay 4/10
Bosses 2/10
Sound 9/10
>>333071674
I think North took a long time for me because I kept dodging and didn't realize that chain dash was an upgrade (in the beta you automatically had it). I only started making real progress when I realized I could just run out of the danger zones.
>>333070889
>>333071189
I didn't feel like cheesing him with the reflect so I baited him into destroying his men first then I just dash into him with a combo strike/dashslash in the pauses between his attacks and slip past behind him. The thrill of knowing that a single slip up could kill me was a huge rush. Did the same with the North and East too.

Here is your free (you).
Just in case you are stupid though, the game is made with GMP which gets real fucky if it goes beyond 30 fps. Unlock the FPS and try playing the game, it will become a buggy broken mess. I just finished the game and 30 fps didn't bug me at all. What are you hoping to see any? The exact same frames for just twice as long?
>>333068295
Who gives a shit, anon-kun?
>>333059368
I went for North boss first and beat him with no upgrades.
>>333071816
This is weird, when I started the game the combat was frustrating as fuck until Istarted farming those golden chips everywhere. After getting all the uupgrades, the purple dashing cape for halved stamina costs, the gameplay became immensely satisfying for me.
Like being able to lunge stab lone mobs into walls to crush them, before killing a row of enemies with two slashing dashes. Not to mention that fucking laser cannon you pick up in the south, which one-hits pretty much all the huge mobs.
>>333072180
>retarded dev tying everything to FPS is a GMP problem
NG+ is hype as fuck
So now after the dust has settled. /v/ was once again right about a game. Hyper Light Drifter is the SJW indie pixel pile of shit game pandering to furrys that we all expected. Its just a huge EVA ripoff.

I spent ages on that guy and that wasn't even NG+. Apparently I should've used the heavy slash and just not get hit at all. I see.
I tried to play it, but it didn't let me remap my gamepad AND all the buttons were all over the place. I then tried to use keyboard controls, but for some fucking reason I had to use the mouse too. So fuck this shit.

Beat it already. It was a fun little game. Only a few hours long, but had solid gameplay and fun boss fights. It needs to be more challenging first playthrough though. NG+ you only get two health, but the enemies stay the same as far as I can tell. Kind of artificially more difficult because you die easier, but if you'e decent, it doesn't rally matter.

Anyone able to open the second wall in the ability shop? I did the first with 120 something dashes, i made it to almost 200, but it didnt look close to opening. a controller joystick doesnt control well enough for me too make it much higher and the keyboard doesnt dash correctly.

>>333074956
Overhaul the art direction. Clunky animations poorly telegraph melee attacks; projectiles blend in with the background and walls because they're aesthetically too similar and don't stand out unless you commit them to muscle memory; don't make giant blocks of colour and drown them in gradient shading and call them 'walls'. Don't make giant blocks of colour and call them character graphics. Don't put 'ambient' gradient filters over each room with lots of fuzzy graphics, if the foundation of your artstyle is simple blocky pixelart, it always always always looks like a copout. The game is just shiny Superbrothers, pixel-thin arms and everything, the only thing it's missing is rotating graphical assets.

Frog is definitely the easiest. After that it's a toss-up between Bird's death tiles and Crysyal Wolf's melee deathflips. Very different bossfights, both very hard.

The Shaman was the hardest boss for me for some reason. The others were all pretty easy.

In each area, you'll run into the pink drifter who will highlight the four that she has found on your map. They are bright pink diamonds and hard to miss.
The remaining 4 you must find for yourself. You can look up their exact locations in the /vg/ thread if you don't feel like exploring on your own.

>>333078630
Most of the game is a cakewalk. However, bosses are pretty challenging and the occasional combat puzzle (the ones where room layouts change or enemies spawn in mid-fight) can fuck you up in seconds. Overall I like the difficulty and don't find it too bad, but things can go pear-shaped pretty fast. Get greedy in a mob of enemies and you're dead.
>>333078010

To be honest, it's not difficult at all.

It's a bug, I had it too. Let me guess, you died after meeting the other drifter and the game reset you prior to the meeting. For some reason the map stays updated though so you get a neat little row of purple diamonds if this happened to you multiple times.
This game really needed at least a little more quality control, the number of very obvious bugs I encountered in just 10 hours of playing, man.

It's not a virus, no. It's the DRM free version they posted, but the exe has been hex edited slightly to overwrite the "check steam for the alt drifter to be enabled" bit.
Fuck heart machine for that shit too, I paid for the goddamn alt drifter then they went and made it steam only. Really wish I didn't back this pile of ass.
So how do you get up to the area to the right just beyond the south boss? I can see an elevator and a skill point thing up there. And a staircase leading south.

How fucking boring.
There are threads about it but people are actually discussing the game and there isn't a major controversy surrounding it, the majority of /v/ this day and age doesn't care about a game unless there is some kind of shitposting attached to it
I really like it and I don't understand all the complaints that it's too hard. I'm a scrub and the only real problem I had was with the west area boss, and after figuring out I could make him destroy his minions before he summoned them, he wasn't even that bad.
about an hour in an the visuals are making me so fucking comfy inside
combat is cool, from what im hearing it gets deeper later on
wish there were more sense of direction, im starting with the north, hope im not a retard
I know this is a meme complaint but the 30 fps is actually REALLY bad for this game, the smooth fullscreen camera at a jaggy 30 fps is so headache inducing
I can only play for like 30 mins at a time
>>333088057
>>333087932
>>333087789
Stop lying to him
Alt Drifter has a different sword (longer but narrower), 3 health, and can link 3 dashes together without the chain dash upgrade.
That's it. It's hardly worth it, but it's more than a reskin.

Level Design is so bland it could be procedural and we wouldn't notice the difference - where they hell is our level where we go through one of the dead giants?
Combat lacks depth, lacks complexity, lacks customization, and lacks meaningful upgrades. The core mechanics are fast, fluid, and fun though, and that matters most - the rest is refinement.

>>>Overall - 7/10
>Sound Effects - 8/10
>Music - 7/10Sound effects work and don't detract from the game, but none of them are memorable or instill an emotion like catching a pokemon or winning a final fantasy battle.
Music is forgettable - ambient music does suit the game, but none of it is worth playing on it's own. I still don't understand why they got Disasterpiece instead of Baths.
>>>>>Graphics
>>>Overall - 7/10

>Technical - 4/10I don't care if it's 30 or 60fps, but the only reason it's not 60 is because the dev team fucked up early on and never went back to correct their mistake.
Pixelshit is usually shit - this is actually of higher quality than the usual, but it's not Metal Slug.

>>333093670
Agreed except the Gameplay section, specifically the combat depth.
Are you one of those guys that likes 300+ combos in the game but they actually don't do shit? And again lacks complexity? This game is inspired by SNES games that were nearly all designed with Bushnell's law in mind.

I said difficult bosses since that's what most of the casual garbage kiddies on /v/ say, I never had any problems with any bosses, they were fun, but they didn't last.
>>333094205
With two exceptions, you fight every enemy in the game the same way.
>Watch for telegraphed attack
>Dash away
>Dash/Run back and slash
The exceptions are Pepe (who becomes too easy, but at least there's some depth) and the Rocket Launching Enemies, where you can lead the rocket into other enemies.There's a semblance of depth to the West Boss fight, in getting him to smash his fighters, but there's no reason not to have him do it - it should have healed him whenever he did it.
That's it. Everyone else is fought the exact same way the whole game.
We don't need combos or chains when fighting enemies, but in order for it to be a deep combat system we need to actually make conscious decisions during the fight instead of following a flowchart. And that's really all there is to this game, is flowchart combat.Guns are a good idea, and requiring the user to melee in order charge up is a great way to prevent ranged fighting from becoming the norm - but again, it doesn't actually add any depth - the combat still follows the same "Wait, Dash, Attack" flowchart whether you use guns or not.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WKgLJiJYvY8
literally none of this was in the game
>>333095167
What other Action/RPG game is like what you described? I thought they all followed the same formula of hitting > moving/dodging>wait for opening>attack. I'm also curios because I wanna move up from this, I already tried Valdys Story.

This bothers me alot more than 30fps and the whining about SJWs and shit.
I just want a fun game and am I enjoying it as is. Seeing all those lost assets though means a great deal of the time waited was for areas that we never even got.
Honestly though do we really want to go around a bunch more areas running against walls and drifting into nothing hoping to find secrets?

It is usually noticeable but not necessairly very much so.
From what you said I bet you've missed a bunch of hidden areas in dungeons The black background frames for ceilings occasionally have 1 pixel difference indicating the frame of a door you can access. Generally thats the only sign of it.
So depending on the stage and what you are focusing on it can be very easy to miss.
I don't mind exploring and having fun finding stuff metroid style, but it could give you a bit more of a hint or atleast mark on the map if you saw something you couldn't reach yet.

Basically any game that offers multiple paths to defeating enemies where the different paths have different risk/reward ratios.
Dark Souls and it's brethren include a parry system (Parry = Bigger Risk, Bigger Reward)
Diablo/Torchlight offers a ton of different options to fight enemies with. (Different classes have different risks/rewards)
Link's Awakening has a ton of enemies that require you to play intelligently to kill (shield the bomb enemy and make him bounce away from you, or risk getting hit to hit him with your sword and aim him towards other enemies)actually most Zelda games do this
A lot of Platformers do this too:
Kirby games have more depth with certain powers (Grab the Star with Parasol and shoot it back for massive damage, risking getting hit? Or just pummel him with Parasol for less damage, but be able to move away if necessary?)
Certain Megaman games can do this (Use the weakness and stun the boss and give them invincibility, or hit them with an attack they aren't weak against and don't give them invincibility).
Metal Gear games (though not REALLY Action/RPG) allow you to sneak past enemies slowly with little consequence, slowly creep and assassinate them for a small reward with a bit of risk, or just go in guns blazing and take everything really quickly (at a huge risk to yourself)
Unfortunately, even though it had a parry system itself, Dark Souls and it's ilk have popularized "Wait, Move, Attack" as the go to combat system for action/rpgs. This game unfortunately hardly does it at allPepe's blowy up frogs can hurt you a little bit, but the reward is so huge it's hard to say it's even a choice. Rocket Launcher guy is done well - it hurts like fuck if you get hit, and it turns it into a mini bullet hell for a bit, but it can take out lots of enemies if you do it properly. Reflecting shots is never really worth it t because of how rare it is to actually hit the enemy with it AND it glitches.

You have no idea.
Silly anon, only shills posts on /v/ about games with success.
Any sufficiently large game gets moved to /vg/ (there's a hld general there)
Any sufficiently small game gets no replies.
Hence, to make a post about a game on /v/ and get replies, you need to use "v triggers" (like clickbait but for v).
/v/ is a really great place to test out your abilities as a marketer, and the discussion has been going downhill for a decade so there's not really much other use for the board, OC is almost nonexistent at this point, shitposting gets the most replies, etc.
Enjoy this protip.

I was under the impression that Diablo/Torchlight were just point and click games with not thought put into them. There is no such thing as dodging/parrying/combos, etc. It's just a stats based game that doesn't really require any skill to play. Which is why I don't like those games having the same category as other Action games because it gives people the wrong idea and think that all these games are just button smashers, which they aren't.
To me Souls only has the Wait part because of how slow the combat is, which isn't really my thing.

man this game was so fucking disappointing. even stuff from the trailers was cut. i remember one of the last trailers had one of those robot reads activating and what seemed to be a fight against it about to start, for example
also, how does a fucking 5 hour game have a 30 minute credit sequence? i've seen ubisoft and activision games with smaller credit sequences. shovel knight was crowd funded too and the credits were reasonable (and entertaining, iirc)
can't believe i was hyped for this shit. i don't trust indie games in general and i almost never get hyped anymore, but this showed promise with the setting/atmosphere and focus on hardcore gameplay. what a fucking shame. never again

They are point and click games, but the initial choice between classes is what gives it more complexity than Hyper Light Drifter.
Ex. Summoners generally stay out of the fight and let their minions do the talking, but the minions don't do as much damage as the DPS players. Low Risk/Low Reward
Ex. DPS can kill within seconds but also die within seconds if they get hit. High Risk/High Reward.
It's minimal, but it still has more choices than HLD does.
Souls has the wait part because that's how combat is done. In PvP, it's MUCH faster, but it's still the same concept.
1. Enemy telegraphs attack
2. Choose to Dodge or Parry
If Dodge, proceed to attack.
If Parry, if successful, perform massive damage. If not successful, take all damage.If there were feints, PvP becomes even more deep.
You don't have to like the combat, I don't particularly like Dark Souls, but it's definitely more involving than Hyper Light Drifter. Don't get me entirely wrong, I enjoyed HLD enough to perform a No-Upgrade run and a New Game Plus run, but I have to admit it's pretty shallow.
I'll think of some more hidden gems in the Action/RPG department though.

They haven't been able to fix the gamepad bugs for a while now and they just gave up.
>>333101079
>I don't even know what that means. It's being updated constantly.
Outdated in terms of features. Not even proper rendering/scaling stuff.

No thanks, it's probably like 4 hours long

this game is sjw trash because the people involved with it were defending anita and she even got thanked in the credits (as well as phil fish, the cuck)
that said, the game is terrible for a bunch of other reasons as well, like the wall hugging and all of the fucking cut content, as well as terrible upgrades (like the two dash + slash ones) or worthless upgrades (guns, more than one grenade), the fact that it doesn't track what you actually collected besides the triangles and so on. it's a terribly designed game
>>333101408
>atmospheric tracks are fine
That's just it. They're fine. That's all. They aren't memorable or moving or really good, they're just there.
It's acceptable music, average music, not good music. The OST isn't getting a permanent spot on anyone's playlist.
>>333056915
At multiple points you'll encounter a dead EVA-01, Sachiel is an enemy type, and at least once EVA-02. Game's kinda shameless.
>>333101597
it is
also gamemaker is fucking trash and anyone who disagrees is a talentless hack who doesn't want to pay for actual programmers and doesn't want to learn how to code. people are hopefully learning not to buy shitty gamemaker games anymore. hotline miami 2 level editor ended up being a problem also because of that shitty engine iirc
>>333101829
>the fact that it doesn't track what you actually collected besides the triangles and so on
I don't even fucking mind that as much as I mind there being LITERALLY NO REASON TO COLLECT ALL THE TRIANGLES.
There's fucking no reason to do so at all. No big boss fight. No reward. No extra level.
All you get is a room full of enemies - which is less challenging than the one in town anyways. Which is a shitty excuse for a challenge mode.
Can't play because no controller
>>333051360
Lawsuit fucking when? If these were the listed terms of the agreement to back the campaign, aren't they breaking the contract the made with their funders?
>>333101597
5 hours, but it's 5 boring repetitive hours.
>>333101864
soundtracks should be judged by how they compliment the media they're apart of, not how they stand on their own. the whole point of a soundtrack is to be complimentary
>>333102096
i have 2 controllers (xbox 360 and fighting commander 4) and i actually had to play this shit with the fc4 unplugged because the way they detect controllers meant if the 2 were plugged in, the xbox 360 controller would also not work correctly. nevermind the fact that i can't use the fc4 either, despite the fact that it has a better dpad
>>333101864
I don't disagree but I think the tracks fit the game really well. It helps give a scifi atmospheric vibe and helps give off a sense of loneliness.
>>333102130
This post has all the stuff the ACTUALLY didn't reach.
>>333085007
It's deplorable, but I don't know if any of it's truly lawsuit ready until they say they're done developing the game (unless Wii U Version gets canned, then they're in trouble).
I can't get into this. I think the enemies blend way too much into the background and the combat feels very unsatisfying. Everything is just kinda floaty.
I guess if you like Titan Souls this is your sort of thing but for me I'd rather play Ys.
honestly thought I would be able to somehow fight these things and encounter them, alive
or maybe even just show or implement them in any shape or formdon't know why I was expecting it but I was pretty dissapointed nonetheless
>>333102389
I struggle to believe the game will be getting constant patches and updates with new contentfor free.
>>333102191
>how they compliment the media they're apart of
Hence the post. The music is fine, it's ok, but it's not terribly great or good. Even in the realm of the game, it's just kinda there. It doesn't detract from anything, but it hardly adds anything at all. I'd put it at slightly above average, but at no point did the music help the mood of the game - if it had been silent the whole way, I don't think I'd have noticed a difference.
>>333102363
They fit it but they don't add anything of substance to the game. The sense of loneliness it supposedly gives off conflicts pretty greatly with the fact that there's a whole town of people helping you out, and that there are literally other drifters doing the exact same thing you are and helping you out when they can't go on.
>>333102572
>we didn't get a level where we go INTO one of the giant's dead bodies
I mean... what the fuck. The whole south area was meant for us to learn about the giants and their construction - why the fuck didn't we get to go into the giant in the lake, or the one in the mountain? We can see them, they're right at our fucking finger tips, and what better way to both be amazed by them and learn about them than literally interacting with them.
>>333102572
there was a somewhat recent trailer that showed the head of one activating and seemingly a boss fight starting. they hint at it so much, it's incredible stupid it doesn't happen too. i think they just cut it out because they ran out of money and had to release the game
>All this cut content
Glad I pirated it. Not paying to support some scamstarter campaign.
>>333102572
>all that build up to the giants
>no fighting giants
>no dead giant level
>no friendly giants
>literally no interaction with giants at all
jesus, they took evangelion and did the only thing that would make that horrible fucking show even worse
imagine if eva was just shinji fucking whining for 25 episodes and in the last episode everyone but him explodes
that's what this game is
what the fuck did I even pay for
>>333102572
best music I've ever heard from this game was from the first kickstarter trailer. haha. what a shitstorm this game was.
>>333103026
technically not much was cut out, just left behind and rushed. there were only two things that werent implemented yet and thats from the kickstarter rewards. most other things were just concepts and shown animations. such a cocktease though.
>>333048107
After reading this thread I feel like I want to throw up. This is the first game I ever bought other than console shit and didn't pirate. I'm so sick I think I'm going to die from this cancer. The Jews got me.
>>333103876
>after reading this thread
Why would this thread matter? How do YOU feel about the game itself?
Anyone else remember this game?
The one that kicked off the baby indie shit on Kikestarter?
Is there a non-zero chance that it's going to be good, or did I waste my shekels again?
>>333101504
Ah I see. Never knew it was like that, I was never a big fan of Diablo-like games for that whole reason.
>I'll think of some more hidden gems in the Action/RPG department though.
Yeh that's what I'm also trying to look at. So far people are praising the hell out of the series Ys.
>>333103515

I paid for it and I enjoyed it and feel like I got my money's worth.
If people have the problem of buying things they don't like maybe they should git gud at telling what their own tastes are and learn to watch gameplay footage of games before buying them.
:^)
>>333104146
I love this game I'm 2 hours in and having a lot of fun actually. But seeing the cut content is a bit depressing. There is story and gameplay in this fantastic world we will probably never get to experience
>>333103012
This game was originally said to be around $20K to make. They received over $1M, where the fuck did that shit go to? They took AAA industry time to make a 4-5 hour game which is bugged and missing massive amounts of content.
>>333104517
>thinking previous trailer footage in ANY way indicates what this game was about
the fuck is wrong with you
this thread dead, new thread here:

That literally not how crowdfunding works.
>learn to watch gameplay footage of games before buying them.
You mean like the trailers and beta footage of all that cut content? :^)
>>333104880
Most of what was in the trailer isn't in it, but the actual combat is still the same and the visual aesthetic is still the same. And I did say gameplay footage, not the trailer.
>>333105156
>that literally not how crowdfunding works
I didn't say anything about crowdfunding, and neither did any of the people I replied to. No one said that they funded this game's Kickstarter.
So was it about a bitch trying to find their dog?
