Is "I'm going to Alice" a spoiler?
>>4122682Alice is not a verb, say "I'm going to find Alice" like everyone else in Wonderland.

I forgot to share this thing here. That was fun to makeOf all the games, why does Ace Combat 8's protagonist have unironic schizophrenia? He's got an imaginary friend who calls him a buddy in his head.What is it with games lately dabbling on the MC being a schizo with voices in their head
>>4124230Based drawfren
>>4123757>still upthis board isn't that bad you know?
>>4124230>spoilerGrimmbros, should I buy Ace Combat 8? My rig can handle it.
>>4124409Yes, Ace Combat is great.
>>4124409>denuvoNo. Use hypervisor, wait for a real crack or wait until it's removed.
Do you think Frapollo will get back to Black Souls?
>>4124409The series as a whole is pretty good I hear.>>4124450Yes.
>>41244844 and zero are amazing. 5 is pretty good too. 7 has a much worse story, but beats every other game in the series gameplaywise.3 supposedly has the best, craziest story, but playing it after 7 made it feel too janky. Maybe I'll return to it someday.Haven't played 8 because fuck denuvo.
>>4122965They are very important.
Do any of y'all got any merch, third party or otherwise?Or like commissioned art or something of black souls?I'm curious cause I got a Miranda tattoo so I'm curious what others have/have done
>>4124800Mabel fumo and official poker cards.
I really want TCO to be more of a character in BS3. And what's that black goop thing he keeps doing? Is he embarrassed? Mabel doesn't really explain him.
>>4124986The world will end before we get BS3
>>4124800I got the playing cards and I might get the leaf fumo if and when it's available
>>4125108Mabel said Node hid everything unsightly of hers in the past. Does that mean we never see her at her worst?
>>4124484He seems more interested about Cradle of Nightmare, we still got that Spanish Guy tho
>>4125128I mean he's done just about anything in BS2 already years ago, but I don't see him not checking out DRH when it comes out. I suppose maybe we could convince him to try the randomizer.
>>4125154He never treated the series like he did with Fear and Hunger Just did the playthroughs and thats it. And which Randomizer are you talking about?
>>4125223>He never treated the series like he did with Fear and HungerHe was very active in the community when it was more niche though. He contributed heavily to figuring out if BS1 SL1 D9 was possible.>which Randomizerhttps://github.com/aliceofnhility/Black-Souls-2-Randomizer-Mod
>lorde goes hoo>has the face of an owl that doesn't go hoo
>>4125366How is it?
>>4125366Never saw his playthroughs DESU I thought he just did like a poorly edited no cuts playthrough and thats it. So who is the active content creators in the niche then?
If we assume Bill demonstrates the typical way "daughters" were added to the play, replacing encounters with their progenitor Outer Gods (whose names are decidedly different), then:>Margarette and Wolris become obvious stand-ins for their mothers, so the lack of romantic drama comes from them being the products, not initiators, of adultery. (The Wolris statue's vagueness helps reinforce this.)>Griffy's behavior is reminiscent enough of Jubjub (a "Single mother" according to Hatta) that one can imagine her substituting for another character even if Jubjub's role wasn't up for grabs. >Mary Hudson and Haigha are both obviously Node's daughters. Mary Hudson has no place in the "Alice in Wonderland" canon. She, like Sherlock Holmes, would be an outsider, so the role was invented after the play began. There's a real possibility Node played this role prior to the creation of Queensland, meaning everything in Mary Hudson's backstory (as given by Haigha) is actually true of Node herself. (Mabel's words about "that upright woman" and her act, combined with the CD library's declaration that the "White Queen" moves children to fill in vacancies.)>Likewise, the game intentionally draws parallels connecting Prickett/TCO to Dormouse (The killing spree.), and Jabberwock to Hatta (Hatta, an undead, eating her own head and being forgotten). Prickett being 'loose' in her scenes is explained by her being a mother, and TCO is opposed to letting Grimm consummate with Alice, so it's likely Prickett.>The Tweedles initially came from the Crimean Nursing Graveyard, whose owner is Hastur. He's the prime candidate for them.
>>4125555Two things:The tea party trio is intentionally meant to mirror the original Tea Party. Hatta is an undead because Grimm is, Dormouse is connected to TCO, Haigha is a rabbit because Prayer Master (arguably since the original TP already had a rabbit and an Alice then Grimm has always also been the Mad Hatter, which does fit him).The tweedles were either always in the ward or only in the graveyard when it was still part of Wonderland, and still under TCO. It didn't come under a different God until it was ripped from Wonderland, and as Jekyll says that God is the Sheep God. Hastur if anything seems to be trying to force his way in, given he explodes the sackhead's head if you don't give her viscera.
>>4125585I think the better proof is the bartender yelling, "Ia, Ia, Hastur!"
>>4125585>The tea party trio is intentionally meant to mirror the original Tea PartyThis troubles me. Two of the characters there remember a time when Winterbell was accessible, despite being daughters in the cycle. Adding in the intended theming, when and how do these exist?
>>4125590All daughters who survive a cycle get to Winterbell. And they all know way more about the play than you'd assume at first. Between the twins calling out SEN and Dodo's end of quest scene it's pretty clear they're aware of how things work.
>>4125764So, is our Hatta always one that made it to Winterbell?
>>4125778Presumably she just knows in advance, but on that note it'd be hard for her not to make it there given she survives the madness and killing attempts both.
>>4125836I mean chronologically.
>>4125845Like I said, I'm pretty sure they are told about all that stuff before taking on their roles to begin with.
>>4125395Yeah but it's also the type of owl that can do the completely blank, emotionless stare. Other owls just look like assholes
>>4125395Lorde can speak perfectly normally so I like to think he just assumes he should be hooing because he's an owl.

>>4125366Yeah someone tried the mod and said it had the same problem as another mod the guy was helping out with the development. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8-8Wxuy5kSAIs not 100 % randomized.
>>4124250>>4124409Thanks!As to answer your question, Ace Combat 8's denuvo doesn't feel as intrusive as other games that aggressively checks what you're doing. I would still prefer it having no denuvo since its only good for like, 1 month and then it becomes a liability in the long run. Not to mention it probably introduced a bunch of issues that doesn't play nicely with UE5.>>4124506I wish Denuvo wasn't used. but I had to bite the bullet because AC8 is the only game I want to play, and probably the last big purchase I'll be doing for this year and maybe next year as well.
>>4128200Mind explaining the issues?

>>4128417I saw the livestream a bit more. He complained that items that are meant to give you a type of item will always I dont know what he means by this sometimes is very difficult to understand himI think if you are the mod developer or related to it is much better to contact Trauson directly.Ive heard he is pretty engaging with the community on Reddit and his channel, so maybe it might be a better option to ask him directly
>>4129160Not the mod dev; but if you have a timestamp I can have a look and maybe I can reach out to the dev if they're still around on reddit.
Can someone repost the downloads pastebin? I want to finally play 2
I have just finished BL1 and I really liked it, despite the clumsily drawn porn. Where could I get a copy of non-butchered version of BL2 online? I read somewhere that the new Steam version has 90% cut content, so I don´t want that.
>>4129328NEVERMIND FOUND IT IN ARCHIVE>File not found>This file does not exist or has been deleted by the owner prematurely.FUCK>>4129329the one I had used ages ago and refound was this onehttps://pastebin.com/6wGfa5wjbut link is dead
>>4129329>I read somewhere that the new Steam version has 90% cut contentThat's just to get it to actually be sold on Steam; the publisher has a free patch on their website that restores everything and it's arguably the best version of the game given it's uncensored and has a few corrections to the translation. The only minor issue is it uses the second version of the soundtrack but replacing the tracks with the originals is trivial.
>>4129337Yes, I have found a Steam version online for free, so if I apply the patch, the game will be alright, yes? How do I replace the soundtrack? Do I download from somewhere and manually replace the mp3 files in the game directory?
>>4129342>so if I apply the patch, the game will be alright, yes?Should be.>soundtrack Drag and drop from the old copy of the game. You should still be able to find it on F95. Alternatively there's a Mega archive of all the tracks, but then you'd have to manually rename them.The new soundtrack isn't bad either way. A couple of tracks are arguably better.
>>4129352 >A couple of tracks are arguably better.I will take your word for it. Thank you for your help, friend, have a cat picture as a token of gratitude (I apologize for my English, I am not bot, merely EFL).

Iˇm really loving this game, right now, I´m on the 3rd cycle, lvl 999, found Alice twice (but I lost her again). Now I am trying to get the ending with Red Riding Hood, but I need to raise covenants with all the girls? AAlso, the music from the first room with killer rabbits is stuck in my head now.
https://youtu.be/J8WaV70g5cc
>>4130025>>4130820It has multiplayer? lol
>>4130743>but I need to raise covenants with all the girls?Only for Ending B, which is honestly whatever since DLC3 spoils the twist.
>>4131311Yes.>>4131321>a later ending "spoils" an earlier oneBizarre take. DLC3 builds on and assumes you've seen all previous endings.
>>4131348>>a later ending "spoils" an earlier one>Bizarre take.Nothing bizarre about it.B is a 1 or 2 minutes long ending that solely exists for the purpose of revealing that most of the covenants are your daughters, something that is also revealed to you as you explore the story and the locations of DLC3.It is what it is.It had value before.Now? Not so much.
>>4131636You're right bro, why play BS1 when BS2 spoils it?
I wonder what BS3 will be about, Please save Red...
>>4131717War with ancients and maybe set in Grimm's garden which may be any of these:>created by him to cope>convinced into creating by someone else>might become amnesiac and forget he created it>combinations of theseAnd so on
>>4131717Whatever it is, I do want The Crawling One to show up as a character.
>>4131717>>4131719My theory is still DeS/DS3 style game with a central hub leading to multiple different gardens. Also Hell.
Okay so I'm trying to patch the game and I don't know what's going wrong. I have a pirated clean steam files download and the patch from https://otaku-plan.net/games/3855540. I have the zip unzipped. I select and open the patcher exe which is v1.4. I click the folder selection and then go select the folder the rpgmaker Game.exe is in as the game folder. I click Apply Patch. It gets to 97% then crashes. This time I'm doing it again but with "Create backup before applying patch" selected, and I am going to completely ignore the patcher exists for a while and hope it would have worked without my impatience making me abort it preemptively
>>4131770NEVERMIND IT WORKED OUT
>>4131776u know that u can remove the black layer u made in photoshop or gimp rightjust sayingit's a layer u added on top of the image it's like 2 clicks to remove itnext time delete the section u want to hide

>>4122682Is this game good or is it all memerape?
>>4132190First is experimental, second is a masterpiece.
>>4131776Okay started since I have a couple hours before I head to work. I picked Sorcerer class (though not picking the canon Knight look is PAINFUL but I always love my magic abuse builds in games) and I picked Little Sister AliceLook, I already know that SEN is madNESs and that Alice is the main villain, or at least there's that ending CG with sad-sitting Grimm surrounded by black tar face Alices, but that's all I know. I'm going to go as high SEN as I can for my first playthrough and see how it goes
>>4132276I fell off the bridge and died KEK>To cure it (Hollow), use Girl's Scent or defeat a bossImagining the smell right now...>Dream Spirits>Nightmare SpiritsDamn, but I want to be invaded, that sounds as cool as it was back in Dark Souls 1 and the rest. I miss it.I notice there's stats like Magic Evasion and such now where BS1 didn't have them. There's a skill storage to ditch spells you don't want clogging up the lists in battle, which is very welcome with how much BS1 had. There's Covenants now where BS1 didn't have any explicitly visible outside of the demon princesses.>Black Soul lowers SENGuess I'll never use them nowI can sense the Polar Bear is the type to straight up say "Welcome nigga" as a greeting, if EMMM wasn't a jap. The bear gives me that vibe very strongly>"I'm of the same trade as you, we aren't much different. Being used as they like. For them, we're nothing more than toys."These outer gods need to fuck off and make their own stories instead of taking and perverting ours>There was a cat.>Cat bed has White and Sticky in itI already know how Cheshire Cat looks and I know she's somewhere. I can already tell I'll want to kill her on sight>Red immovable doorDamn, is that for the secret ending like that one door in the dungeon back in BS1? Also I love my bro White Crow back here. That crow sound still takes me back to LISA the Painful...I notice more items have flavor text now compared to back in BS1>Herb Flask M "tainted like the Carroll River">White and Sticky "How would the dear little girl react to being given it?"Oh the game tracks how many souls I used? I used a White Soul I found in the Dungeon and it said "souls used: 1"
>>4132291Should I even bother blogposting here?
I've never seen the hollow debuff in game, save scumming is my life
>>4132293Fuck it I'll continueI encountered Cheshire Cat Kill/Rape both make her fuck off, funnily enough, and she's offering me items. Took Master Key for the red door since I assume I can get everything else later. I find it interesting how the world map is depicted; it makes me wonder how it relates to Black Souls 1's map. Killing the Rabbits lowers my SEN so I need to spare them, despite wanting to kill them. Got past the Headless Knight, nice tutorial to Break mechanic. I'm going to go check out what's behind the red door and the Drink Me hole before I go for the boss
HOLY SHIT YES YES YES YES
>>4132311I think this guy is annoying, so I went back to spend some souls at the Bear. He said this and now Node is here?...I miss Goose. She was one of the best girls back in BS1. I hope she's still alive somewhere and not giga mindrape murderfucked in some backalley corner of one of these maps
>>4132313I beat the executioner guy, but then the Dullahan right after him rekt me with their double attack spam with ATB speed faster than mine at level 9. Then the Phalanx did 900+ damage to me in a single hit and I died. I'm not going to go past the Rabbit Key door either. Guess I'm done at this part for now, progress seems to be past the big rabbit beast boss
Oh no, that's clearly Little Red... What happened to her?
>>4132318So dying to the Kidnapper takes me to a Slaughterhouse with "Hundred-Foot Dogs" that murder me. Okay this is for later too.Got to the Mental Ward, what the fuck is this doing here? Also why does kissing and getting blowjobs from Node increase SEN? And why does this Medicine here increase SEN too?
>>4132293Blogposting is fun, I always enjoyed seeing be anons' reactions. Especially if they end up doing something fun or retarded in the process, like the guy who played through BS2 on difficulty 9 and sinneranon.I'll treat most of your questions as rhetorical, as I don't want to ruin the experience/spoil anything by accident. All I can say for now is experiment with SEN on NG+. Try to do a full run with your SEN at 0 or below and see what changes.
>>4132334>that spoilerDamn I'm already at 191 SEN. I think it's over for me unless I repeat suicide for enough Black Soul to lower it to 0
Why is this Failure trying to kill me. So what if your papa got drunk and left you here? Just relax and drink your damn whiskey already. Also where's this Brothel Street the bunnygirl is talking about? It seems Alice went west over that bridge
>>4132339MY BOY THE ONE WHO LOVES WARI missed him so much since BS1
Okay so the sign is wrong and there is no Nightmare Spirit in the well, just a lot of goats I cannot kill because I have no AOE attacks yet. North seems to be progression, but west is the blood pond's other side as well as this dumbass. Work calls so I gotta head out
>>4132334>sinneranonQRD?
>>4132336>>4132334Yeah fuck it, I'll just work to keep my SEN at around 100 as the initial starting default and do the run like that
>>4132355>starts blogposting his progress during King of /v/>immediately proceeds to rape faeries to farm souls>spends the rest of the run getting chased by Lindamea, with anons teasing him about it
>>4132360Glorious.
>>4132276>>4132291>>4132293>>4132303I'm enjoying reading your progress, anon! Please continue, if you want to, of course.
>>4132190>Is this game goodGames*And yes, 2 out of 3 are good.The very first one (Red Riding Woods) is honestly terrible unless you're a lorefag.Well, it's still terrible either way, but you'll be able to appreciate some things if you are.>memerapeMost of the rape is optional.
>>4132698Yeah will do that next time I continue. I suppose I will resign myself to doing 3 full runs of Black Souls 2 then>first time ~100 SEN for consistency because it is default amount you start with>NG+ max SEN>NG++ min SEN
>>4133135>max SENThere is no difference between 100 SEN and 1,000,000 SEN
>>4133160At 1m SEN Alice starts appearing in real life.
Can somebody tell me what am I doing wrong? I met Red Hood 10x already, got Leaf´s ring and I collected all the memories (little flames), but I can´t not choose Alice after I start a new cycle? Did I miss something?
>>4133283Press "Esc" when that decision pops up.
>>4133283Actually, did you remember to visit Red on the eastern side of Lutwidge after those 10 encounters?
>>4133288>spoilerYou don't need that.t. found that out after completing the game
>>4133286I have no idea what these hints refer to. I've already beaten the thing and all. I just have no idea with this.
>>4133290Just check the other anon's advice, there's no one really telling you, I also was confused and someone gave me the 1st hint to make me figure it out. Basically in Wonderland, in Black Souls 1, there was a trick to get past Bandersnatch, it's the same trick
>>4133285I tried the entire keyboard AND I didn´t skip the prologue. >>4133288Yes, I did, I beat the boss and had an "encounter" with her after that.It looks like something´s bugged? I even went and checked every past memory . Oh well, it looks like another cycle awaits.
>>4133318The requirements are:>At least 10 interactions with Red Hood at campfires>All memory flames>Leaf Ring>Do NOT skip the intro
>>4133321This is my destiny. Maybe it will work out next time?
>>4132328It's not really explained in-game, but SEN is not a measure of your sanity, but your madness, this was lost in the translation with the Tweedles' conversation about you not being a waxwork (there's a pun that doesn't work in the English version) and correcting an intentional typo where the serial killer invaders were called Madnes Spirits.
>>4133160What's the highest SEN value that affects game events?
>>4133321It finally worked, thankfully, although I had to go through everything again. I have no idea what happened, but it works now.
>>4133465100
>>4132328normal pills like in dreams music video :)
>>4133505>default starting SEN is also highest effective SENWow, guess I don't need 3 playthroughs then. SENmaxxing first run it is
Okay back at it again. Places to go>Rabbit Hole red door area plus warp rooms>Mental Ward explore further>Blood pond west of Liddell Cemetery>Blood pond via Rabbit Hole DRINK ME hole>areas north of Liddell Cemetery>getting kidnapped into the Slaughterhouse, plus whatever is beyond the KidnapperFor now I'll just keep going north along the main path. Once I get some more levels I'll reconsider where to go.So far, I am noticing how busted Node's Covenant is, it's just free max HP and a single Blood Vial heals me for like 80% HP and the Herb Flask is a full heal. As long as an enemy doesn't oneshot me or overwhelm me with raw ATB speed, I don't have much to threaten me.>Viper's Clothing>Embroidered with "Francis Liddell"Interesting flavor text. I do wonder how the Liddell River is connected to all this, plus the few other non-Alice mentions of Liddell that come upThis Ripon Grand Cathedral is sure imposing. The Dark Conjurer mob right at the start implies there might be some good magic build items to find in here. There's also the fog gate topleft of the graveyard area, but no easy bonfire nearby. I hope I looted the graveyard completely because I could not find any secret passage or hidden grave teleport thing for the life of me.HOLY SHIT I am 16/139 MP and Tearing Grudge did 2300 to a Lamia here, 1800 to a Dark Conjurer. I think this is going to be my big murder tool for bosses and tough enemies from here on out.Is pic related supposed to be a reference to the Lilith fight in Old Rotten Burg back in BS1? She was also in a cathedral at the end of that area
>>4134239Doctor Blackwell is here, but I still don't know what their deal is. Also thinking about it, I never saw any fairy tale summon sign near the fog gate at the graveyard, even though I am not hollowedIsn't Cheshire being too early with this? I haven't even found Bill yet. Yes I know Bill is a trap, same as Hansel back in BS1. I figure if this is the snake god church then he's probably somewhere in here?Yes I died to the Looney Tunes door push on purpose and yes I laughed.Yes I died instantly to the big miminigga, and no I did not laugh.Believe it or not, I did miss these skeleton knight mobs from back in BS1 that spam the disarm slashes at you. I also missed the disarm slash you can do with the Knight Sword that made you basically fucking invincible to non-magic enemies/bosses. God, Black Souls 1 was so fun at the very end when I had like 5 extra turns to crit arrow machinegun everything to death. Anyway, these skeletons drop Ore Shards and the encounter does not disappear on being defeated. I too miss the Catacombs of Dark Souls 1>The Cook is sure to get angry about this -Oil Urn.Hmmmm... what Cook? And where?>Sorcery is yet another path to becoming a demonbeast. -MagistoneYet another Bloodborne thing. I do wonder if/when I'll see more outright corrupted mages later?SPEAKING OF MACHINEGUN, THERE IS THE HUNTER'S BOW AGAIN, thanks random bow skeleton>It's an unspoken duty to produce children. -Lizard Bill -Vigor MedicineDoes Bill want to be a woman? Is that his ultimate goal? Surely there's ways that one of the outer gods or other powers in Wonderland can give him a sex change?>Goat MeatWhere the fuck is Baphomet? I strongly suspect BS2 follows from Ending D of BS1, so she's gotta be somewhere in this shithole. Anyway I used it plus the Roasted Cheese. Hope there's no permanently missable shit from using up stat items like thisOH SHIT random Dark Matter here and of course he gives me Ore Shard and Candy. Guess these are the metal slimes of BS2...
>>4134283I reloaded the save to run back and see how tough the big blue snake is, and on the way I died and noticed pic related. I have no idea how to make it there and there's no bookcase to fall onto safely. Also the Hydra hits 9 times, just as I expected it to. Definitely not a foe I can fight yet.>MP+10%, MP costs halvedDoes it stack with Sorcerer's Staff's halving? I vaguely remember something like that back in BS1 as yet another way to break the fucking game there.>he sells sorceriesOkay he's my man. Now with Soul Radiance I can go murder those goats in the well. I didn't comment on it, but I also like seeing Bloody Carthus back from BS1. It's still kinda shit, but I did sorta miss it.>gives Poisonbite RingAh, I missed this one too. Such a GOAT ring against certain specific things in that game...Thinking about it, does Tearing Grudge only check for missing MP or just remaining MP? Would being 5/100 MP be less damage than 5/200 MP for example? If so, then Bill's covenant giving me more max MP would make it nuke harder... but it's also harder to lower my MP easily even though Soul Discharge is 14 eachCotton the Witch randomly ganking me? She frenzied at half HP then nuked me with a multihit magic move. I'm starting to assume that these Nightmare Spirits will always have a half-HP berserk phase. Also SOUL DISCHARGE HAS A COOLDOWN NOOOOOOOOO Yeah no I cannot fight her right now, the magic move hits 3 times and kills me from full HPGot past the Gate Guards with the Gate Pass, but I think now is a good time to go elsewhere. First the goats in the well, then another go at the blood pond
>>4134283>Surely there's ways that one of the outer gods or other powers in Wonderland can give him a sex change?I think Bill is technically female but I have no idea
>>4134304MADNESS SPIRIT DESTROYED thanks Soul RadianceHoly shit Dodo gives GIGA MOVESPEED thanks dumb friend. It's still nothing compared to Fluffy Thing EMMM's godspeed back in the BS1 desert, but it's still appreciated. I'm noticing how it's helping me go so fast I'm able to actually backattack enemies in the overworld where before I couldn't.>thinks kisses are how babies are madeI see. Dodo is THAT sort of dojikko.>we aren't even lovers yetAre we sure Dodo is mad? She's one of the sanest characters yet just from this line alone>Speed+20%, Preemptive Strike Rate UpI think this would be godlike if I was running Thief or something instead of Sorcerer. Sadly, Bill seems to be the go-to alongside Node for now.SOUL DISCHARGE SOUL DISCHARGE SOUL DISCHARGE SOUL DISCHARGE SOUL DISCHARGESadistic Mistress Brownrigg? Damn this bitch's sprite looks hot. And... she also goes rage mode at half health. Guess I shouldn't be toying with these Nightmare Spirits anymore.On the way back, that Hanged Angel enemy did a spell reflect and almost murdered me with my own Soul Discharge. Brownrigg has passive HP regen? I didn't notice until now. Spamming Soul Discharge on all the mobs on the way dropped my MP to 11, and Tearing Grudge did like 5400 damage to her. And... she moved faster than me because of her rage mode and new double hit attack, so I died. I need to leave her alone too for the time being.This Torture Chamber has Bluebeard in it. One attempt he fucking "embraced ambition" and boosted all his stats twice in a row and then instakilled me. Next attempt he used Blasphemy and instakilled me. I just ran around him with gigaspeed and looted the ring; I am not fucking with this guy either yet.FUCK NOOOOOOO I RAN TO SPORE FOREST AND MISSED CHESHIRE AT THE BONFIRE HERE IN THE BLOODY POND AND I SAVED AFTERWARD WITHOUT REALIZING ITIt's so over, Grimmbros...
>>4134307Dodo suffers from birdbrain so yes.
>>4134306Then why does he have a dick? Why is he such a faggot?>>4134308I did kill all the animals then fight her briefly just to see if that would "end the race", but no turns out I truly did have to fuck off and come back later>>4134307I am blasting through Spore Forest now. Got Mana Drain sorcery which might be nice here and there?>random shroom uses it>4 MP drainedI hope it won't be that weak when I use itAnd now here's a Mushroom Village? >Chimera inflicting Horrified statusYeah I'm gonna clear out the Spore Forest first and check out the Caterpillar before I go through this spooky zone.Left Down Right takes me to a Matango which always opens by critically hitting me for 15K when I haven't even reached 3K max HPOKAY FINE I'LL FUCK OFF TO THE BOSS DOORI fucking LOVE this running theme of having the BS1 fairytale bosses as your ally summons for the bossfights here in 2. Buffs Pumpkin-O was putting out made it easy. I wonder if the Undead Killer Shroom is what I need to help make the Nightmare Spirit fights easier?>ruined house textWhat's the deal with this William guy? Is he a reference to another fairy tale or poem, or is he just some dumbass old man who got asked too many questions (by his son no less) and went murderhobo over it?>Duchess' Mansion>PuppyOh god these "Puppies" are stunlocking me, truly this is the Dark Souls experience>Chickenman wants to be eaten but the Duchess told him to fuck off because he has no pepperWhere can a cock get some spice around here? Can't have shit in this Wonderland I fucking swear>butler guy keeps escalatingHow many phases does he have?!>clumsily plays the violin>multihit kills me because I didn't heal in timeSURELYSurely the violin phase is the final one?! I do not have the max HP for this once again, so I must leave elsewhere
>>4134314>Then why does he have a dick? Why is he such a faggot?I mean in the biological senseDude has an ass-womb or something Snake god gave him some eggs
>>4134314You want a true fairy-rapist pro tip?sleep's busted, get some fairy dust on yo dickExplorer best class
>>4134315So fucking him in the ass isn't technically gay? I guess you can chalk it up to lizard biology in that case>>4134316I already know this from BS1. I used Fairy Dust sleep to cheese certain fights there. I fucking KNOW how busted it is>>4134314>Queen of Torture Tools>instakills me after a chargeup>heals 3500 HP a pop>Undead Killer Shroom doesn't prevent the healingOkay man, not here. I have 52K souls so I'm just going to get Bill and Dodo covenants to max, fuck both for the scenes, then throw it all into levels and get my staff upgraded>Bill max is +50% manaNice but I have nothing expensive enough to require this yet. And yes the 1/2 mana cost stacks so Soul Discharge costs 7 mana with Bill's instead of presumably 28 mana without the Sorcerer's Staff.I'm not rejecting Bill; he's been the first friendly magic user I've come across. I hope the Serpent God stuff also helps Blackwell feel better, whatever is going on with them.Where's the Serpent God blood reward Bill mentioned? His dialogue and items have not changed.OH SHIT IT'S A PINK FLUFFY But where's the brown one? Where's EMMM in this?>this Dodo lineMan this game's translation as well as BS1 have been top notch. I wish more games were like this in their translation efforts and humor. Personally, Dodo is not my type. She's more friend material than sex material to me. Bill, same deal. Closest to my preference right now out of who is available is Node. Speaking of which>tells me not to trust the word of anybody in WonderlandInteresting...>bear tells me his woeful stateI picked "That's sad." though I did note the "But can I pet you?" option. I don't think he'd like that though. It might have been nice, but I want to do right by him instead

Is this still Wonderland or is it elsewhere? No way I want to do this place now>Soul Radiance Phalanx deadThat's so cool, my first buff spellTrying to use the EAT ME cake anywhere makes the game tell you there's no point to using it there and it's gone forever. I wonder if there is a use for it somewhere after you leave the DRINK ME room into the blood pond? Speaking of which, how do I get into that section on the left that's closed off? Same deal as the section in the Cathedral...OH SHIT IT'S THAT SONGOH SHIT IT'S THAT OTHER SONGOkay so I need to not go here to the rabbit grind area yet. I am enjoying the current difficulty of the gameBar back in Lutwidge Town is basically deserted now except the barman and the Kamen Rider guy. Couldn't even kill the Failure from before. At least I can go past that locked door area I had to skip before>Fredrick of FearI want to see what his phase 2 is so I can't Soul Discharge to kill him. Okay it wasn't that bad, but it would probably be bad early on>encounter Sheriff fucking his SergeantWell okay. Brothel Street is down past the locked door area. Also I killed that Gentleman and got pic related. The Rape theme is way less intense and outright evil compared to in BS1, but I like this one more. The saxophone and melancholy flute gives it a different vibe that fits this game more>>4134320Thanks>>4134322TrueNow I must sleep. Tomorrow is going to be a long off-day full of work. Goodnight
>>4134283Go play/watch End D of BS1 again.Baffy's dead.

TCO is always anxious over Jabberwock. Why?
>>4138896Probably because she's a whore who tries to mess with things.
Ooof, I didn´t realize how hard the first DLC boss would be, I get wrecked even with flesh wall in 2 - 3 hits. Are my stats too low? They are about 7000 across the board.
>>4138951Not too low, however you might want to check the statue in the upper right corner of the library in case you accepted a certain someone's blessing. Also this is the part of the game where you learn you should be guarding on most turns.
>>4138679A mirror?
>>4138914Could I get your opinions regarding the Black Goat and Mary Ann for a second?
>>4139017Respectively Worst Mother of All Time award and Miss Literally All Her Fault. That said Jabberwock is the single character who comes out of BS2 actually mostly happy and with things going the way she likes.
Playing modded BS2 but irrelevant to the modded content; I am once again delighted at just how much the game lets you do when you know it. Not only is HB accessible at P0 but getting a +9 weapon before any boss is trivial too.
>>4139059>I am once again delighted at just how much the game lets you do when you know it.You'd enjoy Outer Wilds and Void Stranger.
Considering replaying I just for a silly crossover desu
>>4139063They're both on the list of shit I need to play (and I own the former already).
>>4139063>picI really appreciate some of the niche pulls but there's some fucking garbage on there, holy. The most surprising part is still putting Viewfinder on there when apparently familiar with the less popular game its plot is a poor imitation of (not that Viewfinder isn't ass gameplay wise too).
>>4139081Any and all /v/ charts will have weird and baffling choices on them, no exceptions. I'd know, I personally made a few and had anons push back hard. Doubly so if you take recommendations from other anons when making the chart.Anyway, play Message from Deep Space if you enjoy deduction. It's very underrepresented on /v/ for how fantastic it is, it's Obra Dinn/Roottrees tier.
>>4139087>it's Obra Dinn/Roottrees tierNow it's my turn to play the weirdo; I haven't played the latter of these two but I found Obra Dinn to be a very flavourful period/genre piece and a really really neat game that's kind of dragged down a bit by the true ending being extremely bland both story and gameplay wise, and feeling kind of tacked on as an excuse to encourage you to do well.Also while I'm at it Chants of Sennaar suffers from a mediocre final act and some horrid forced stealth sections (even if the actual climax is good), and FEZ is a disaster that fails at both being a puzzle game and a platformer and genuinely an example of terrible design and an idea sacrificed on the altar of aesthetic and one presumptuous man's (lack of) vision. And VotV shits itself when it goes full quirk chungus reddit tier with its writing but I respect the autistic gameplay nature of it at least.
>>4139056>Worst Mother of All TimeWouldn't Node be worse?>Miss Literally All Her FaultIf TCO hadn't stolen her creation to dawdle around in Wonderland with, none of this would've happened.
>>4139063I don't see La Mulana mentioned, blasphemy

Also if I steal something from you and you burn my house down in retaliation your actions aren't really excused.
>>4139596>Node>actively sacrifices her children>is keeping some for later use as cannon fodder>allows them to be raped/killed/eaten so she can feel like a heroine in a retelling of someone else's love story>Shub>ignores her kids>occasionally plays in their gardens>fights for justice>her only crimes were beating satan's identity out of him and trying to go home to her husband>TCO>local girl makes talking dildo>her stepfather immediately begins doing tricks on it>she steals it back (with a few other things he had lying around)>"Literally All Her Fault"Node only blamed her because TCO offered her a better chance of getting Grimm to herself, not because Mary Ann was actually wrong.
