Considering it's 10 bucks right now I consider it bretty gud.

I wouldn't consider it God's gift to gaming or anything. It's competently done but you better have a stomach for backtracking.

could you tell me more about the upgrades? I played 116 mins of the game and I'm literally considering if I should refund this pos or not.

see, it's people like these that make me super suspicious. From what I've seen so far, the level design in the game seems really bad. The combat is super boring, enemies look uninteresting in general because they all follow a similar concept.

What makes it great? Why is it the "best" gaming experience? like, wtf man

that anon is high. the only backers 'ocs' are ghosts that have two lines of dialogue and are all located in a cemetery, that you can avoid since it doesn't contain anything of importance

The level design is great

It's pretty good, but like nier (the other overhyped game atm here) it's not without flaws.
Like it's a good game and I love it but some of the huge flaws are such a fucking annoyance. Like backtracking in hollow knight being atrocious at times and the first 30mins-1hr of the game being so goddamn slow.

>>
>>382613947
Enemies are about as uninteresting as the shit you'd fight in Symphony of the Night; you may like or dislike the art and the repeated sprites but how they behave as part of the gameplay is functional and fluid.

Combat is literally castlevania (not metroid, I'll save you the essay I've written on this), its not your 3.5E D&D level of complexity and variation.

Just pirate it, its a single player game.
>>
>>382613947
Just bashed hornet and proceeding to the mantis area. I can find that it does look pretty good in a few aspects such as the atmosphere, the different bug design coupled with dark themes (last time i saw a bug based game was... Uhmm bug's life for the psx) and the lovely OST. Common enemies are ok, nothing too great. The gameplay handles well but i've yet to grab most abilites. It's a bit barebones but i imagine it'll be more diverse. The boss battles till now are great and makes me beg for more and i really like some of the npc designs and subtle touchs they make with a few of the corpses littered through the levels. It's overall above what i've played and for the price, i won't bother with the flaws like it's level design and what i can see of backtracking everywhere to 100%. Also lack of more potential death scenes makes me question the theme it proposes.
>>
>>382613947
not those guys. I am enjoying the game because it plays like a giant love letter to CV and Metroid. Part of that is nostalgia since this was my favorite type of game as a kid, but the game is genuinely good. The game isn't perfect, I've had some game bugs that i have to relaunch to fix. If you like metroidvanias then you will probably enjoy HK, if you don't then the game isn't gonna change anything.
Honestly just play it for 2 hours and return it if you don't like it. Too many people complain about schills or question others about if they will enjoy something when they can find out easily for themselves.

Every ghost (excluding ones like the maggot and Soul Tyrant) is a backer OC, regardless of location. Even ones like the singer in the pleasure house.
All the Dream Warriors are backer OCs.
Cloth is a backer OC.
Possibly others, but those are the ones I'm aware of.

It's a bit like Undertale's Muffet vs. I'm Sorry. One is a backer-submitted design that's fun and really fits the game, the other is someone's furry porn OC. One of them is right in the main path, unavoidable, and the other is tucked away in a secret room where you need to adjust your computer's time and date to fight it.
>>
>>382612403
Its ok.

If you like castlevania id recommend it. Pick up Rogue Legacy too if you like the genre.
>>
>>382613947
Just torrent it for 10 minutes and purchase if you enjoy it. You aren't going to get a good answer because your indecisive. Just play the game.
>>
Its a good game. Not the best game ever, but its pretty damn good for what it is.
Its comfy as fuck too
Wasn't there going to be a major update that adds a ton of content or was that going to be dlc?
>>
I've been playing it this week and it's pretty fun. Only non-nitpicking complaint is that some areas look very samey, made it hard to navigate, but nothing that bad. If you hate backtracking then you might be turned off, but it's fine for me. Always looking to go back to previously inaccessible areas.

Would be nice if you could drop a pin on the map to show where you need to come back later, but this can be said for most every metroidvania out there. Took forever to make my way back to where Hornet leads you to the city area after I got the wall jump, forgot about that room entirely.
>>
>>382612403
>>382613947
So why don't you fucking play it, and find out?
It's $10 on Steam surely you'll found out if you dislike it within 2 hours to refund it.
Or better yet pirate it, and found it, fuck off with this "I just wanna know if people are shilling".

Pros:
Metroidvania
Lots of enemy types
Over 10hrs of gameplay
Diverse attacks, power ups, abilities

Cons:
Bland samey art style that gets dull after 8hrs
Wonkey hit boxes for both you and enemies
Floaty gameplay
You feel the drag of repetition before you finish the game
Padded length time
Tries to be DEEP

It's a 5/10, if Ori is a 6/10, Order of Ecclesia a 8/10 and Super Metroid a 10/10. For $10, this, Ori and Sub Nautica are the best things you can buy, barring much older hit titles.
>>
>>382616409
I already played 116 minutes. It's not bad but honestly it isn't worth 10 bucks at all imo. I'm asking because some games have a slow start. Maybe the upgrades will make the gameplay better, that's why I was asking about the upgrades.

Honestly, it's probably one of my favorite Metroidvanias. Simply because it has a world that I'm interested in learning about; honestly, I think the whole deal with Metroid and Castlevania being a long-running series kills there appeal. I'm not interested in what no-good scheme Dracula or the Space Pirates are up to this week, but exploring a completely original setting is much more engaging.

I felt similarly about La-Mulana; it's just more fun to explore something new.
>>
>>382614924
You gotta remember a lot of the people on this board are lonely as all fck and complaining and baiting others into a reaction is the only way they know how to communicate. They know they could buy it and refund it or just pirate it, but that doesn't get them attention.
>>
Does anyone happen to have the OST?
>>
To be fair, it does borrow from pretty much every other Metroidvania (and Dark Souls). You probably won't mind though, because exploring the world is addictive and the combat is tight as hell.
>>
The biggest turn off I see that might turn lots of casual players off is that you can explore more than half the map without finding any new exploration abilities, only to find out they where in areas that forgot to check it out hours ago. I don't hate it, but I found the super dash, swim on poisonous water and ground pound in succession after exhausting almost every other accessible area in the map before.

I think that can be a positive or a negative. To me, I was still enjoying it, even though I went like 5 hours without any movement upgrades, because I was still unlocking Stagway Stations, finding charms, and gaining money.

I will say that towards the end backtracking to the Ancient Basin got REALLY old. There should really be a Stagway station nearby the lower tram. I groaned every time I realized I needed to go all the way down to the basin. The fastest way I found was to get there from the King's Station, head left through the City of Tears, then head down that shaft with the broken elevator at the bottom.

Also, this game might be the longest Metroidvania I've ever played (and I've 100%ed La-Mulana).

I'm about 20 hours in, and had the intention to beat this game 100%. However, I just got the delicate flower that you have to deliver to the other side of the map without getting hit and I've pretty much lost all motivation to continue.

>but I found the super dash, swim on poisonous water and ground pound in succession after exhausting almost every other accessible area in the map before.

I hate it too, at times. Not just with this game, but a lot of metroidvanias. Do you have the right power NOW? Are you using that new power the right way? Are you overlooking something?

How do you know? You simply don't and have to go back with each power up and try it each and every single time. Metroid alleviated this by having color coded doors, matching the right powers. Some games do this right, some games go full retard with it.

Example of doing it right:
>Dust An Elysian Tale
Doing it wrong:
>Shantae 1/2 Genie Hero
>>
>>382617576
Did that today. EZmode is just kill all the enemies on the path from the grave to the start point, don't rest on bench, and reverse course.Then you only have to deal with trash enemies like flies and flying moss. I still died on a thorn in the room before the goal one time.

>>
>>382617576
It's not that tough. It took me only two tries, and the first one was just because I forgot those fuckers in the Queen's Gardens have spikes stick out of them after you kill them.

Just look at the map and figure out a route, then go along that route before you deliver the flower and take note of the types of enemies you'll be facing and where the trickier ones are.

Or just buy it on Steam, spend < 2 hours on it and decide if you like it or not. Refund it if you aren't enjoying it.

Two hours is not enough time for something like an RPG that starts with a 30 minute cutscene, but it's plenty of time for a game like this.

I felt HK had a more lasting effect on me than Salt and Sanctuary.

I think S&S level design is top notch but story and music is extremely minimal.

HK basically copies some of the concepts in S&S but enhances them and makes them better (Still Palace -> White Palace for example) and gives each area its own unique atmosphere and perfectly fitting music.

Kingdom's Edge really made me feel how tragic the King's life was. Meanwhile S&S just has this monotonous rock theme in 90% of the game.

>>382616668
Combat is much better and more varied, but the gameplay loop is completely different. In HK, you've got a massive world to explore. Dead Cells is more about unlocking/leveling items for future runs. It's also in early access.

I've been playing both, and I'm enjoying both for different reasons.
>>
>>382613947
i liked it at first, but now i'm almost at the final bosses and i'm getting kind of tired of it. traversing across the map to different areas takes forever and there are some bosses that are straight up bullshit.
also, getting 100% takes absolutely forever and is extremely exhausting.

in the end, i don't really know if i liked it or not, but i had played ori and the blind forest previously and i feel like that was a much better experience for being such a similar game
>>
The news posts about the update make it sound like the Dream Nail will be used in some means of transportation/movement? I really wish the stag stations were more frequent and better placed.

Also, Infected Crossroads is bullshit with how some paths are sealed off. I haven't explored the entire place post-infection,
but it seems annoying so far.

I've had a few friends who played it. They were fairly satisfied.

I mean its 10 dollars, not 40 like some games.

i just beat mantis lords, took me like 10 times

>>382623771
Pretty sure the game just starts you off your last save point after you fight the final boss. I think you can get all the endings that way.
>>
>>382613947
lackluster "game feel", but worth checking out
>>
>>382623145

Yeah, the first time I found a blocked path I was expecting to circle around and find some kind of infection source to destroy and reopen the way. Completely blocking off paths for no reason is dumb, especially since they don't really use infected crossroads for anything meaningful.

Also, I'm annoyed that I only learned about quitting and reloading after 100%ing the game. If reloading the game is going to work like that, they might as well just give you a "recall to bench" item.

I couldn't get into s&s but I'm loving HK. Not saying it's bad but it didn't grab me like HK did.

I played both.

They're both really well designed, but I would pick HK first. It has better boss fights (Most of Salt is giant dudes with swords and knockback) better environments, better art, story and a solid soundtrack.

Sanctuary is basically 2D Souls so the main advantage is the big build variety, you even have a hunter class for Bloodborne playthrough.

I would argue against that, hard. Metroidvania is my favorite genre but Rogue Legacy was boring as fuck to me. And it's just too fucking repetitive, compared to more refined games like Salt and Sactuary or Hollow Knight

Fucking this. I don't mind the game having a plethora of areas and lots of gameplay, but they should have just made some of the charms actual abilities you permanently get, like Quick Slash for instance. It would have felt more rewarding and they could have spread them out so that they game would have more consistent upgrades. So many fucking bosses in this game feel like they are hard for no good reason. Most don't give you any reward for your effort. It's fucking annoying and takes away any of the care I have to fight most bosses or do extra shit.

>>382616448
I would agree with your cons, the game needed to add shortcuts and possibly spaced the damn stag stations better. If you go to the bottom of the map, especially the bottom-right, it's incredibly annoying trying to get back somewhere else. And because of what I said in the response above (about not getting enough power ups) travel time can be fucking silly. It's nothing like retracing your steps in SOTN or Super which let you go super fast and decimate older foes because your more powerful. It's missing that crucial element of these type of games unfortunately. And no that crystal charge shit doesn't really help, because you have to sit and charge it (unlike speedboost in metroid) which wastes time and a lot of the game is built on verticality and steps which destroys any benefit that would be gained from it's use.

It's kind of lame that some of the abilities are practically worthless in combat situations like A and down-A. Hitting shit with the nail is at least extremely satisfying.

For me Hollow Knight was one of the best games I've played in years. It is not perfect and I understand why people might dislike it but I personally was taken away by the atmosphere, and it was challenging enough when compared to shit like ori

I 100% completed it over 3 or 4 days back when it was released (took 36 hours according to steam, couldn't put the game down)

The only cons for me were the fps drops at the end of the game beating the 3rd arena was hard mostly because of the fps drops, the bottom-right part of the map which seemed rushed, and the lack of boss rush mode as I enjoyed most of the more challenging bosses.

The game starts slowly but after getting a few movement abilities it is a blast to play if you can stomach backtracking

it is a good Metroidvania with a little of "le ebin dark souls" theme and mechanics.

Liked it a lot desu,

fuck the white palace, I almost ragequitted then
>>
>>382636734
I used hiveblood, deep focus and grubsong. I literally couldn't die because I was able to heal all damage and completed white palace without dying even once. Plus it wasn't as bad as I was expecting, there were only two or three truly difficult parts.

It's definitely worth $10, but there are flaws. Whoever designed the map system should be fired immediately, and most of the charms should just have been included as normal powers, like a compass and a stable strike, instead of taking up valuable notch space.

Other than that, it's a great game. Fun Castlevania-style gameplay like Symphony of the Night or Aria of Sorrow. Some fun platforming too.

The game is mediocre. It's mostly shills and really simple-minded people who are easily influenced by marketing and hype. Same kind of people who praised and made tons of threads about Skyrim, Witcher 3, Mass Effect 2 etc.

I don't know why people get upset about this. Bretta is desperate to be noticed and not left alone. All Zote is doing is bragging about his nonexistent triumphs and he will eventually abandon her like everyone else.

Bretta is destined to be alone and ignored forever.

I'm getting pretty bad frame rate issues out of nowhere. I just reached The Colosseum of Fools and my frames drop to 36 after 10 seconds of loading in. My frame rate has been fine up until this point, I had no issues last night and I was playing the first challenge for a few minutes no issue. I'm about 15 hours in btw.

Forgot to add, i hope that aside from dung knight and Zote, they will add Mantis lords dream fight, where they fight all 3 together from the start or some sort

What? The game is a bit obtuse in its story-telling and doesn't really reveal anything at the beginning (not even the PC's reason for being there), and most of the story is gotten from short NPC interactions, bestiary journal and a handful of stone tablets until later on with longer story sections if you explore and find true end related stuff, but the main story itself sure as hell isn't going for anything "deep". Mystery yes, but there's no "hmmm... really makes you think" attempts at all.
