Movement. In this game. Just. Feels. So. Good.


Like, seriously. I've spent 20 minutes just trying everything i can think of, and so far, 2D left-2-right boosting (smaller sword) [ ]x3 + /\ + R2 to cancel out of the stronger attack to loop the combo again has been the nicest Thing to figure out.

So. Good!

Roll was best for when you wanted to keep your position since it moved the least space so I found it more rewarding to stay engaged with my target. I only really used Trickster for Teleport. The dash I only really used on some bosses that had bigger more active attacks.

264

but jumping = not moving on the x axis at all

265

Thereā€™s no iFrames in that and I donā€™t like being in the air unless I got sword style or trickster so I have air options.

266

did you read my postā€¦

you do have iframes and you have basically every option sooner than you would from the roll

Rolling just makes more sense until you dig that deep.

I dunno guys all this talk of iframes and pianoing is really getting into Not For Me territory

pretty sure you donā€™t have to care if you donā€™t want to. same goes for dmc. also ā€œpianoā€ is kind of overselling it; just means jump and then hit attack on the way up. you donā€™t need Final Execution to do it

edit: if it wasnā€™t clear, neither of us were talking about nier 2 in that exchange about rolls

also I mean Iā€™m leaving thread now anyway sorry I didnā€™t talk about fish I guess

Yeah, itā€™s not a strict input but can be a little easy to futz up due to the position of the x button and triangle.

I also hardly ever look up the ā€œTechā€ for these kinds of games. I usually just get through regular hard and see how far I get on the next or next next hardest and then usually call it quits.

Iā€™ll concede to the roll being useless for the adept but itā€™s still a sound option for those not aware of where the iframes are.

274

the best dodge mechanic is in god hand and itā€™s called High Side Kick

rolling makes more sense until you know jumping has iframes. just pick royal guard and do jump + royal guard for 5 minutes it feels great.

275

I didnā€™t mean the thread was Not For Me, I meant the game! Dude!

THE ENDING TO THIS IS SO FUCKING GREAT.

I got the mackerel ending pretty close to the end of loop 1 on a lark and for a moment I was afraid it deleted my save

I havenā€™t deleted my OS chip because I just assume it will kill my save file

Itā€™s nice that they found an excuse to write godzilla into this

281

hm, this is actually going on a bit longer than I was led to expect. Iā€™m pushing 8 hoursā€¦

while youā€™re holding onto your bot, if you press square 2B will do a spinning kick that damages and keeps her afloat
