Some of you guys would not have survived the NES/SNES/Arcade era.
Not all of those games relied on reaction time or were even real-time.
 
I got all perfect badges (except iga)
I broke that game in half and perfected that fight on the first try, no joke. If you still want to get that: (Warning, MASSIVE gameruiner for bloodstained):


Go farm the Buer (the goetic demon lionhead on a wheel) summon. In any situation in which you have an enemy next to a wall, you can run up to them and drop Buer inside of them and it will absolutely fucking wreck their shit because the wheel's collision resets every time it hits the enemy or a wall, and dropping it inside an enemy means it's going to hit the enemy, continue on to hit the wall, and then hit the enemy/wall alternating EVERY FRAME until it times out or the enemy dies. It's even worse than the SOTN shield rod exploit and usually one or two upgraded Buers will shred everything in the game up to and including IGA.
 
Have you ever tried castlevania games or Bloodstained? I got all perfect badges (except iga) on nightmare difficulty there, not a fan of the 3d look, but it was still quite a fun experience to try.
Yeah I've player through all the metroidvania castlevanias. I think I've played all the Castlevania games except for the newer 3d ones. I like them but they're not quite the same as metroid and hollow knight. They really don't give that same feeling of being lost and alone in a strange, hostile alien place. Bloodstained was alright but i didn't find it as good as the Castlevania games.
I highly recommend to play Symphony of the Night. You can download an ISO or buy it on Xbox/PSN. For some reason, you can’t buy it on Steam or GOG.
I've played through sotn a few times. I prefer Aria of Sorrow. I liked the soul absorbing gimmick.
I thought Dread was pretty good, and it looks great for a switch title. But I'm not a Metroid fan and I never beat one of the games before Dread. So at least it succeeded at getting some total noobs into the series.

Hollow Knight mogs it though.
It's the only metroid game I've played that I dropped part way through and had no desire to finish. I even finished prime 3 and I didn't really like it at all.

If THAT is truly the price, then I think the guys at team cherry are gigachads.
 
If they day 1 release the game at $20 it will either let them get away with a mediocre game, or will result in the biggest bitch slap of all time to the industry.

Is team cherry self publishing?
 
I thought Hollow Knight wasn't good and got bored 2 hours in so I imagine this will be even worse. But the furries will cum over their "sexy" bug and it will sell.

Shit tastes.
Also furries don't give a fuck about a furry character unless its from a something popular or nostalgic franchise.
 
The characters in the game are basically either blobs with eyes or stick figures. I'll never really understand why fags will make a deliberate effort to sexualize everything you like.
Probably because fags wants to like them more (which for them can only be done in a sexual manner) and thus makes them fap material, but since they feel weird at the idea of fapping over the picture of a formless blob or stick figure or an animal is weird, so they turn them more human-like.
Really the fact that a porn artist feels the need to give to a character human feature shows that they are not completely irredeemable. Same cannot be said for most pony artists or literally any subhuman that faps to paw patrol/bluey characters.

I mean Hollow Knight when not at a discount is $15, so this basically falls in line with my expectations of "Hollow Knight but with a fair amount of more shit in it". In other words, gigachad developers that probably should have been a bit more open the past few years about the game development.
 
With Silksong right around the corner, let me just emphatically end the Hollow Knight era by saying... fuck Markoth.

Please change your PFP, you are disrespecting the sexy goth bad boy's memory by being such a knuckle dragging retard.
 
Been playing the game, 7 years later just beat the traitor king without cheating, figured out you can use sharp shadow and don't bother slashing.
Going to take this to the end to finally call it (for a normie) complete in time for the new one.
 
I am a dark souls gamer and I am about to start yelling slurs at Hornet if this bug cunt says "ADIDO" or "AGALAY" one more goddamn time.
You better get used to it because those voice lines are played every time you jump or attack in skong.

Yeah but i'm the one doing the playing in that one, though I'm also pretty sure you can turn those off in the settings. at least lower the volume
 
I really hope they copied the save system from the first Ori game. The bench system from Hollow Knight is one of my main complaints with the game. I hate dying and returning half way across the fucking map. Ori did it the right way where that can happen but you have only yourself to blame. I still hate that they removed it from Ori 2.

They seemingly copied the best thing from the Ori games (Bash) so I'm hopeful they copied the save system too.
