Blue Prince

Roguelike puzzle game where you need to explore the rooms of a house - you have a "deck" of rooms, and can select from one of three every door. You have a limited number of moves per day, and every day, the house resets. (Blue Prince, blueprints - get it?) You're set to find room 46 in a house with only 45 rooms. That's the headline aim, except you'll find that there's a whole, massive lot to find out - narrative, secrets, puzzles, etc. You can however make some permanent changes which deliver permanent advantage/progress.

This is, I think, genuinely a masterpiece. Almost.

Because it's also incredibly annoying: like many of these games, you need to go in again and again to get progress, but the ease with which you can be screwed by RNG is huge. Managing RNG to the right level in these games is probably one of that hardest things for a developer. I think these devs have tended to RNG excess.

So for instance you can see a puzzle and a solution, but you've also got to get via RNG the right rooms in the right place and picked up the right three items. And you'll need to luck out like that another 20 times to find stuff out. You'll have the odd freakish run where stuff comes together, and you have ways of planning to make these more likely. You can get bits of incremental progress. But mostly you'll be wading through a mass of runs which don't pan out, and each one is probably 15-30 minutes of your life wasted, and it feels like the game does not respect your time. You will get frustrated, start to resent the day start cut scene, etc.

I'm hoping that the game will have an update that gives us some better tools for managing RNG because this is such a commonly discussed issue. I'm waiting until then to play more of the endgame.

Finished the Artorias DLC for Dark Souls.

My pride and joy is that I managed to beat Manus, who shows up as the toughest boss on every list, on my first try.

Spoiler

I get a good sense of his combo early on, but consistently take a beating whenever he does his jump attack, because my go-to is to roll sideways instead of away. A magic shield would probably go a long way too but I managed to tank the barrage of bullshit just fine.

And before that Kalameet. That was 4-5 tries.

Spoiler

I don't know what the hell is that weird red psychic attack and don't care to find out. Sadly I miss the tail weapon on this one.

Yes. I think it needs more flexibility to keep things - even just one or two items (the Coat Room is not nearly enough) might slow down the grind.

Also, just as a QoL, I would normally start a run by unlocking the west path room, which is about 2-3 minutes wasting time just to jog there and back to the house. That could be better automated - like some device to open it in the entrance hallway.

Manus first try?? That's fuggin' impressive. I've thrown and broken exactly one controller in my life, and it was against Manus.

And before that Kalameet. That was 4-5 tries.

And Kalameet is the ONE Dark Souls boss I've never beaten. Granted, I've not tried more than a half dozen times; after struggling with Manus for days, and Kalameet being 100% for pride (i.e.: not tied to any achievements,) I was content 100%'ing the game.

Good fuckin' work, dude.

@Johnny Novgorod, if you haven't already gotten it, please record some videos of your going for the Large Divine Ember in the Tomb of the Giants...

Yeah, the west path room is definitely too far away for something you need to go to every run. Things just take too long in general, like the unskippable boat animations.

I would also say the Coat Room should hold 3 items and spawn every run as an outhouse after you reach room 46. Same with the Conservatory.

Mine is that I beat Orenstein and Smaugh my first try.

I did Manus first try too, but thats cause I was using super heavy shield setup on the run that was doing when DLC release, and you could absorb all his combos by just blocking them.

 

[NerfedFalcon]

I'm pretty sure in DS1 my only first-try kills were the freebie bosses like Pinwheel, Ceaseless, Centipede Demon. I did get Seath first try as well though and I'm not sure if he counts as a 'freebie' or not. In the later games I got Soul of Cinder and Gehrman first try, and Fire Giant on the second.

 

[Johnny Novgorod]

Maybe I was overleveled from all the endgame farming (I ended around SL 120-130), if there's such a thing as overleveling. I feel like I maintained a consistent ratio of damage dealt/damage taken and basically used two weapons the whole game (BK Sword and Zwei); pretty much the same shield too (Silver Knight, Black Knight). The biggest powerup for me ended up being kindling bonfires and getting 20 heals. But even then a boss like Manus only required like half that.

I died more times to the Stray Demon than Manus, Gwyn and Kalameet combined so maybe it's a simple case of git gud. I'll take some credit anyhow.

Ninja Warriors Again (SFC) - I did a hard mode run and no death with Kamatachi. Managed to get over 1 million points.

I did it too, thanks to the Artorias Greatshield. Kalameet was a pain though and I don’t even recall what I used to beat the bastard, but it took a dozen tries at least.

Beat Cogmind on my 16th attempt! I'm still not sure how I feel about the game. On the one hand, the game is absolutely gorgeous in terms of ASCII roguelikes (there's a tile set by default, I just find the ASCII more readable and pretty much the same). There's a fantastic use of color and animation that I've never seen in this type of game before, it turns ASCII into an art style. The sound effects and ambient audio are really good too. On the other I just don't know if I really find the main gameplay very satisfying. It's so hard to get your feet under you and maintain a solid build, and it can just fall apart in an instant the second you engage in combat. I'm sure there's a way to go about it if I understood the mechanics a little better, I just tend to like to be more aggressive in games and I can't really do that here. Hacking also requires a lot of utility slots and I found I wasn't really able to spare them. Finding enough hacking suites was a problem as well. You have an aggressively small inventory also, unless you have a lot of support for a big storage unit, but it's tough to manage and easy to get in a situation where you need to dump your inventory in order to escape and survive.

On my winning run I ran into a really powerful friendly bot on the third floor or so and got a free ride through several floors of the facility. I wasn't able to explore as much as I would have liked, since I needed to keep up with them, but I still managed to assemble a decent kit to switch to a flying robot. Unfortunately, I spent a little too long looking around and lost my buddy in level -5 (you are trying to get to 0 and escape to the surface). This would have been the ideal time to put on all my flying gear, but instead I explored the caves until I ran into a room of enemies, got in a bind, and had to switch parts around on the go and dump half my stuff. I managed to escape and loop back around later to pick up some of what I dropped, but this put me on my back foot and I never really managed to stabilize. From then I was always trying to find more propulsion units for flight, or reactors for energy, trying to use my sensor arrays to dodge enemies and only using my guns to blow holes in walls so I could avoid being caught. I had a fusion reactor which supplies a lot of power but at the cost of 1 matter per turn, and this was hard to get as I wasn't engaging in battle. There was a lot of manually de/activating parts to manage power/heat/matter usage for the entire rest of the run. Eventually, I came across a portable matter refinery which allowed me to convert parts I found on the ground into matter, and theoretically this would have solved all my problems, and it did help, only I was never able to stand still long enough in order to convert enough matter to fill my reserves without being found and needing to escape and probably having a part blown off in the process. Further on still, I found a large storage unit and had enough support to carry it and was starting to build up a reserve of back up parts, including a very lucky cash of back up prototype flight units, but it wasn't long before I ran into a scrape and had to dump it to escape. This was on -2 and the rest of the run was just barely scraping by, maintaining just enough energy to keep flying and get away from the hostile robots pursuing me at every turn. By the last floor I had pretty much nothing left and literally had to stop every 4 moves in order to deactivate all my flight modules in the middle of being fired upon in order to regain another 4 energy to fly for another 4 moves. My pursuers were just behind me and I was running into more at every turn. I really thought I was going to lose the run, but suddenly after I managed to break away and gain some distance I came across a sealed door and a terminal. These kinds of doors were pretty rare, I wondered what might be behind it. The terminal only showed a 20% chance of success for hacking, and I almost walked past it to look for the exit when I thought, what the heck I'm already being hunted what have I got to lose? Success! Amazing! And there's the exit! I dove for it and ascended to the surface where it plays a little cinematic where I go and power up a space ship and fly away or something. I don't know, there was a lot going on and I was pretty jacked, so I didn't follow it completely. It looked cool anyway. I don't know if I'll keep playing for other endings, I probably won't, but I'm happy that I got one win under my belt.

The dump log was too much for one post. I don't know if anyone cares but here it is.

Spoiler: Dump log (the formatting of the forum messed it up a bit)

A friend of mine was in the mood for some party games, so I ended up doing a few rounds of some of the Jackbox games.

-You Don't Know Jack: While the format is pretty amusing (format being everything for trivia), trying to figure out what the hell is going on, plus the fairly extreme punishments for making mistakes, make this one too stressful for me to completely enjoy.
-Drawful: Brilliant. Getting to draw with a smartphone and one color is actually a lot of fun, and making art that's comprehensible isn't as hard as it sounds. Plus, the addition of making up fake prompts for bonus points adds even more layers to the experience.
-Fibbage: Somewhere between YDKJ and Drawful. Lying is still fun, but removing the extra step of making the drawing doesn't feel as good to me.
-Blather Round: I liked this one a lot as well. I could see it becoming stale after enough rounds to see the prompts more than once, but finally getting to pull out the perfect sentence is a fantastic feeling, as is making a soul read on your friends. Instantly guessing that "Unfeeling society" referred to 1984 (the book) was my best shot all night.

Lords of the Fallen lost its luster, as expected, but not for the reason expected- I'm finding the combat so much easier than Dark Souls because you really can just sort of hack 'n' slash your way through a lot of it. Stamina management is radically more generous than in DS. Chop chop chop, baddies go down. Though I only faced a few bosses they all went down in one or two shots.

It's the world exploring that got tedious quicker than I hoped. Running around in circles. There are maps but they're so hard to read, at least for me. And you have to look at everything normal and with the lamp thingy so it's like running around in two circles.

This actually seems like a game that would be fun with a guide of some sort. Wander about for a bit then just have the internet tell me where to go already. And since I don't want to extend my GamePass subscription I think I'll just wait for another Steam sale and have this as a "thing to do while listening to podcasts" game.

Master, we're in a tight spot.

Playing The Silver Case, the Suda51... thing. Visual novel. Whatever. There's puzzles in it too, in the sense that putting on socks is a puzzle every morning. To unlock a door you need a password and its decrypted form, as spelled out by a cipher in a different room on a different floor once you painstakingly introduce each letter. Or you just press the button on the door that solves it for you. There's a button right there that just skips every aspect of solving the puzzle. I don't know if this is a feature, like a story mode/Sunday stroll thing implemented on the remaster, or a joke on the game's menial mechanics, or what. I looked it up online and nobody seems to be sure either.

Speaking of menial mechanics, Suda has never made a game - at least as director - where he didn't try reinvent something as basic as movement. You move around in first person by faxing in the direction (N, E, S, W) until a prompt lets you know you can interact with something, which you do in the only way that you can, then move on and repeat. You're given a roulette to spin right round baby right round to choose between movement, contact ("So you can touch things, detective"), an inventory and a save button. It's all very deliberately cumbersome.

There's a killer on the loose and that's all I have on the story so far. There's no speeding up the text slowly filling up the boxes, which it does with a loud, annoying typewriter sound that made me turn down the volume a notch every few minutes. The dialogue is "charmingly localized" - extremely basic and reiterative, and sweary in the manner of a kid trying to sound adult.

In the name of Harman...

Been playing Under Defeat between rounds of Monster Train 2. Its a really solid shootemup. Its gimmick is that you are piloting a helicopter so instead of just shooting straight up, you can angle yourself to the left and right to shoot at angles, plus its got these drones you can send out, vulcan, cannon and rocket. The vulcan will follow your movement till it starts shooting a tough enemy then it will stick to them, the cannon will fly around shooting things till it runs out and the rocket will fire a really powerful explosive. Each drone has a cooldown after its finished firing or gets destroyed then once the cooldown is over you stop shooting for a few seconds to launch it again, vulcan has the shortest, rocket has the longest, cannon in between. I found the cannon drone to be the most useful for most things since having your drone fly around the screen blowing up things is really handy, the vulcan can be really good for single target damage and the rocket is a mistake I occasionally pick up, its cooldown and charge to fire again is just too long to be useful.

Enemy destruction is really satisfying, good explosions, smoke trail from debris, air units falling and crashing. There are 3 modes of play, arcade which has a vertical screen, arranged which has a nice widescreen and arranged plus, which seems to slow the levels and have a lot more enemies attack you. Each mode also does have different enemy placements and such. You start with 2 continues and unlock more as you play and don't finish a run.

Really good shootemup.

fucking finally the only other person who seems to have played/enjoyed the curiosity I tried singing praises of happens to be yahtzee, unexpectedly

I played the demo and enjoyed it, I'll pick it up at some point, I have enough to be playing at the moment.
