You DID Save her, Didn't you, /v/?

I've only played the game once and that was the original free release. I didn't know I could save her, so no.

>>258311576
Well that is just terrifying

>>258311087
Of course; I'm no casual scumbag.

>>258311087
yeah, on my second playthrough
actually I hated her and prefered her dead
but that 'hell' stage was just too fucking awesome
Ballos had so much potential to be a tragic bishie husbando.

>>258311087
>get tow rope
>"use on curly; Yes, no?"
>"no"

I might need that tow rope for later.

Of course I did on the second run after I read a guide.

Hell was fun. Couldn't kill Ballos until I found out I could stand on his cheeks.

Of course I did, Anon. There's no way I could leave Curly Brace to die.

>>258311576
Why boner.

I saved her but she got washed away and I never saw her again.

>>258312269
>>258312192
>>258311658
The fuck was it?

>>258312689
Curly, but made by probably Idlecil.

>>258312689
Nothing. Go to sleep.

No one ever did that first time. How could you know?

In fact, how could you know without someone telling you or looking at a guide? It's not straightforward.

>>258313049
You're absolutely right. Yet you'll get tons of faggots claiming they saved her their first playthrough.

>>258311087
I'm not a filthy casual, so I saved her the first time.

And every time after that.

Never have I seen a more disgusting portrayal of my waifu. Not even the MLP versions of her made me want to vomit as much.

>>258313235
Some people look up guides before they start playing. Though those people are the true casuals. Anyone who says they saved her on their first playthrough without a guide is a lying faggot though.

>>258313049
I must confess I used a guide my first play through because I couldn't stand leaving her in the core and I had to know if there was a way to save her. I guess I was lucky enough to have not overwritten my save after saving booster.

I never played the whole game, so no, I didn't

I did manage to save someone else, though.

>>258311087
I was unable to on this one playthrough. Fucking water wouldn't let me the fuck out.

>>258313049
>>258313235
I actually DID save her the first time.
I also got the Spur the first time.

Although, I admit it was because I was an impatient kid who couldn't be bothered with talking to most NPCs.

>>258313049
>How could you know?
>investigate sparkling item at the bottom
>tow rope get
>check on Curly after fight
>tow rope attached to Curly

The only way you couldn't have saved her is if you were too heartless to look for a way to do it.

I used the tow rope on her but I didn't know you also had to drain the water out of her.

>Have the spur
>all health upgrades
>saved my full health pot
>still cant beat the hell level and balos

I fucking hate myself. Its so fucking hard

I only saved her because I thought if I fell down the hole that the scientist guy was in I'd die.
I was not smart.

>>258314016
Except you have to avoid talking to Booster and triggering his early death to get that rope, and no player would do that first time through. You saw a guy fall down, so of course you're gonna go talk to him.

>>258313990
So you saw booster fall from the ceiling and you just decided to skip over him? There's like 5 more precise steps after that as well. I doubt you're telling the truth.

>>258314016
>sparkling item

It only appears if you IGNORE booster when he falls.

was being able to peek at her panties really necessary?

>>258314016
Except the sparkling item doesn't appear unless you ignore the old man that just fell from 30 ft in the air. Did you even play?

>>258314016
You had to look BEFORE the chamber flooded, and before that you had to do the not-saving-booster shenanigans. You also had to realize that you can't just leave Curly Brace in the house to recuperate. There's a lot of things that can go wrong when gunning for the true ending.

>>258314384
>>258314391
>>258314415
>not ignoring that old fart
>thinking that it was a safe drop
Booster was kill don't worry about it just go

>>258314412
>Peek

You fucking steal them

>>258314391
I don't know about him, but I thought he died when he fell, and you were supposed to jump over it to not die.

>>258314016
That's only the first step though, there's a bunch of other counter-intuitive bullshit you also have to do.

>>258314573
So if you saw some guy jump off a building you wouldn't even spare a thought to check on him? Not even out of morbid curiosity? Not even to steal his wallet?

>>258314578

its been a while. well thats even worse.

>>258314578

>Play Curly mode where the roles are reversed.
>Get "your panties" instead of "Quote's briefs"

What a let down.

>>258314016
By the time Curly drowns it's too late to get the cable. You would have to have found the cable before the bossfight started. And you also have to make an almost pixel-perfect jump to avoid Booster in the previous area.

>>258314773
No, I wouldn't.

Not when the only way to check on him is to also jump off a building.

>>258314583
But there aren't bottomless pits at any point in the game until you get to the balcony part so you really have no reason to think you'd die from going after him. You never die from high drops and the game teaches this to you very early on.

>>258314924
But you'd be a robot and immune to fall damage.

>>258315001
There are quite a few blind drops into hazards, especially in Grasstown.

>>258314250
You can grind weapon levels at the end of the room full of falling blocks and cherubs.

Enter the next room, kill the cherub spawns, and return to the block fall room.

>>258315029
But not immune to the random spike pits that those asshole rabbits keep leaving in the middle of the road.

>>258315001
Like I said I wasn't very smart. I was also like 11 or something when I played it and this was before it was well known, like 2005 or something.

>>258315508
You still aren't very smart.

>>258315001
>there aren't bottomless pits at any point in the game until you get to the balcony
But there are instant death spikes

>>258315683
You're mom

>>258315428
The problem is the areas that come after the falling blocks room. Those rooms full of spikes at the end are especially nasty.

Pixel did it on purpose. It's pay back for Hiroshima and nagasaki.

>>258317994
Contain your anal agony, it's meant to be a bonus for people who replay the game, not something everyone is supposed to get on first try.

>>258317994
It's actually a bug that Pixel never bothered to fix and everyone just asssumed it was done on purpose.

I actually ignored booster because I never saw him fall, I looked away when it happened. I completely missed the shack in the waterways though, and I said "what the fuck" out loud when she died. It's not until i beat the game when I realized that I did it wrong.

I then started up the game again, beat the Doctor, and quit during the running hell part because I'm casual.

I call bullshit because it's almost impossible to jump that gap the first time without prior knowledge

>>258319374

I had the level 3 machine gun

Shit. I'm an idiot

>>258317994
I agree, I find it bullshit that doing things the most logical way fucks up your chance to get the real ending. It's just obtuse shit.

>>258318339
Then what about the red mark on the floor indicating where you have to jump to make it over the gap?
