I have played through Hollow Knight twice so I am pretty familiar with this gameplay style and I did just recently played through Hollow knight again before this game came out. I agree this game is difficult, but it’s not that difficult. Every boss has a pattern that can be learned after three or four tries.
I wouldn’t mind checkpoints before the boss even if it’s not a bench and more of a “retry” option.
But the annoyance of run backs raises the stakes of the fight a bit. Like, “Please let me win this time so I don’t have to do another run back.”
But I was annoyed at a particular fight that started without warning and I had not really explored the new area yet, so I didn’t have a chance to find a closer bench.
It looks like that might be the case. I found a post asking for this and a long list of people commenting on it asking for it.
If they did, I’d totally get all most of my games on gog. But it’s like half the price on Steam(depending on the game)
As a side note, resident evil 2 remake was actually more expensive here by like a dollar or 2.
I thought oblivion got pretty repetitive at least the main quest did. Also, leveling was quite slow.
Near the end of the main quest, I just ran to the end of each tower just to get it over with.
I played the original instead of buying the remaster, so maybe there were some changes to the remaster to make it more interesting.
I rarely have had good experiences with Bluetooth.
I do not even know which version of Bluetooth I have, but the version numbers are confusing enough that I don’t know which version has which features.
Maybe that’s my fault, but when I see tech advertising the Bluetooth version and features, i just hope my device supports those features.
Anyway, I’m done with my rant.
I worked at Apple when iPhone became available at Verizon (huge US telecom).
Apple was set up for this huge launch and expected crowds of people. The store was way overstaffed that day and pretty uneventful.
One guy came up and asked us where the Verizon store was 😂 when someone told them we could do all the account stuff in the Apple Store I think he still chose to go to Verizon.
Anyway, that’s just an example to highlight your point.
Neither don’t play them or ignore additional methods of monetization built into the game. It’s like they don’t exist.
If there is too much dlc, it makes me feel like the base game is an empty shell. Even if it’s not true, it turns me off from the game. Look at sims 4 and one of those city builder games.
I just defeated him. He was a bit difficult.
I don’t know I could have upgraded the needle already, so I defeated him with the base needle.
Then I looked up where to use the oil and found out I could have fought him with 3 needle upgrades 😂
