RAIN WORLD

sounds too tedious to be honest

5P really was something huh?

[Random Gods intensifies]
gonna be honest here, that ranks really fucking high in my video game top tier moments.
and i've played a wide variety of video games.

Moon should thank him. She was out of comission until that joke woke her up. If he let ehr decay away I would get seniority and gain access to her water again. But now 5P is very slowly heading for a fate worse than death

NSH will find the way out for everyone
you'll see

Get stone/rubish in one hand, spear in other.
Throw stone/rubish at head, lizard will be stunned and starts to squirm revealing his soft parts without the need to jump over it.
Stab it with spear.
Repeat.

What happened to her?

she almost died

but why

If you want to kill things, try to get used to rushing in and pulling the spear back out, stabbing them again and repeating at least three to five times. Most things on the ground will be slowed down enough from one spear to allow you to escape though, and Vultures will tend to fly away temporarily after one or two.

5Pebbles used her enourmous water supply as a desperate attempt to flush out the rot I inadvertently created. This began to 'kill'' her slowly, until she used her seniority of the Iterator Group to force his activities to cease. But it was too later for both of them, leaving 5P with the cancer and Big Sis near 'dead'

because 5P sucked up a lot of water 5 times the needed amount
he was built close to moon and as a result he was basically staving her the water needed to clean her internal systems and after like 7 cycles she shut down then crashed

Extremely risky, you need to watch out for their head movement, since they can bite you off if you're close enough. Green lizards are too tough for this strategy to work, and I'd advise throwing at least 2 or 3 spear at a vulture before bullrushing it

>leave me along

To add to this, they shared a water supply which was originally not supposed to happen, but was allowed because the ancients couldn't see anything bad requiring massive use of their water supply that would endanger the other.

of course, murphy's law applies to alien planets as well.

>tfw a fucking scav did this too me when he was clearly trying to get the lizard infront of him
it was right fucking there

blame the alien jews

Drainage is totally optional though, so if you don't like the watery death hell experience you can just never go there. It wouldn't be a bad call desu but I think the area has a certain bleak charm to it

Attached: RWcomic.png (1622x1864, 458K)

to be "fair" they all thought they basically had their way out and no longer needed to give half a fuck about the material plane.

I think some of the pearls mention 5P, being of the newest Iterators, had a built-in ecosystem to help him vent water, making it sublime and re-use, so he wasn't really reliant in groundwater the same way Moon is. It's just that the quantity he used for both his experiments and for flushing his cancer out, exhausted both his suplly and Moon's. He's just that arrogant.

Well there's your problem. Unless you have specific business there, keep away, especially if you've just started the game. That area is complete cancer and completely optional.

why do lizards fight each other even when tamed

You never heard of territorial disputes?

I mean I get it but if only you could tame them more
like sluggos rise up

Thinking getting this game on switch but I heard the framerate drops from some reason? Is It bearable? If not I'll get the PS4 version

I've been trying to git gut and kill everything I see. I've been killed the most times than when I would just run away but I'm getting there.

the pack hunters don't

because they communicate with each other

What are those yellow egg-like circles? They have creatures inside or something.

Yeah a bit of luck is involved. With mushrooms its a pretty safe move. Of course by killing things you're likely to make something worse spawn.

Can you just jump on things or only on shrooms?

An alternate method of guidance. If you piss off the overseer, touching those will make them float in the direction you need to go.

Man I befriended a huge green lizard in Garbage Wastes but it seems like he can't ever leave the two screen room he's in.

You can probably jump on lizards but youre gonna have to be pretty damn quick

You can, but it's VERY risky, since the lizards are known to snap at you. You need spidersenses to do it without, and a bit of luck on where you land in the lizards.

The cyan ones have gass pods that rupture if you hit them.

Nothing wrong with death

I started the game a few days ago and ran from the fucking wildlife until I made it to the chimney canopy. I really hope this leads somewhere because I am all out of karma and the fucking gas birds are giving me PTSD. Great game but fuck the the plants that keep stealing my explosive spears and fuck scavengers spearing me, i was trying to save your buddy from the fucking lizards, it's not my fault that they used him as a living shield

You should have gone to the shoreline instead.

Guys what do the little yellow maggots do? Do they call for something when they start emitting the yellow light

I just went in whatever direction felt right at the moment, which was up most of the time. Did I fuck up?

Yes, they call vultures.

You should be following the yellow dude that shows you holograms.

I was following the yellow guy but he kinda disappeared for a while after I made a mad dash away from a pack of lizards and he only showed up again at like the first shelter in the canopy, now he's leading me further up so I decided to just go with it, if I hit a wall I'll probably make my way back to the industrial area

Maybe he's guiding you to the underhang, which is bad. Return to Industrial and then to shoreline or you're going to miss the most kino moments of the game.

Ok, thanks user. I'll get started on the journey back then

I think my slugcat has autism.

It took me an hour to find the worm and return to the underhang, but at least got the chieftain achievement.

Or it was deemed an accecptable loss if one of them would drain the other dry. It's not like the ancients would be around to see the ensuing shitstorm nor would it matter if given enough time even a vegetative Moon could solve the great problem.

Where in SI do I find this one?

You don't get the pip on outskirts until you have the survivor first. Just a thing that is really easy to miss.

"Colored pearls spawn in set locations around the world, and always have the same dialogue. The two colored pearls from Sky Islands are the exception to this, having a dialogue pool of 5 texts, from which one is chosen for each pearl per playthrough."

Two lonely worms are at the far middle right of chimney canopy.

>When you eat too many Slow-mo Mushrooms

Beat it as a survivor. Never entered shaded citadel the underhand or more of those five pebble rooms. It was really how big the world is how you are left feeling the ecosystem and atmosphere of it. My only gripe is that the incentives and rewards are poorly designed. There is just a massive trek for the data pearls that feels unnecessary. I loved to find them in areas I were in though.

I would love a new game with a similar world scope by these devs.

Is this game a perfect example of how reviewers are trash at games? I’m in the middle of my first play through and while it’s challenging and obtuse for sure, none of the mechanics really seem that hard to grasp. I keep seeing how people were pissed about how the karma system is never explained, but it seemed pretty obvious to me that eating food and resting during the rain was a good idea because something kept increasing. And then it took me maybe a few more cycles to connect the gates with the symobols that we’re increasing.
Did they patch the game to make this more clear or are reviewers just that retarded?

They added a few things to make it easier like the Monk mode and map progress not resetting on death, as well as additional food placements, but Survivor is more or less the same as then. If Monk were playable I'm sure they would have been able to get a bit further.

The low score mostly comes from the fact that they only played for about two hours and called it a day, and that's about the amount of time before the game actually starts being fun instead of confusing. Almost all the reviews I read never left Outskirts, some made it to Industrial, and only one made it as far as Garbage Wastes. Rain World is one of those games that you either get or you don't, and it definitely doesn't fit well with reviewers who only play games as a job. Still a higher score than Anthem though.

They are retarded, only brainlets complain about "non-explained carma system". Well, to be fair, in version 1.00 was this bug that you lost all the carma on exit, it's a bit too much. But it was fixed days after.
Generally, I think, they were too attached to the notion that "hardcore"+"platformer" means "it should play as Meat Boy, otherwise it is not fair difficulty".

You missed out. 70% of the kino is in the Memory Crypts -> Leg -> Underhang -> 5P journey

It’s games like this that make me think a more appropriate system is to have say three reviewers per game that play each game, and have AT LEAST one of them finishes the game. I know that would never happen, but I feel like it could work if a new review company started with that premise.

to be fair the game was much more difficult when it was released and the reviewers couldn't use help of the community either. But yeah, RW goes against the type of games that reviewers generally like and even most notions of "good game design". Genuinely original works take always some time to find appreciation, especially if they don't blow their load early.

>AT LEAST one of them finishes the game.
Well, ending here is nice, but it doesn't change moment-to-moment gameplay.
I blame obscessive idea of "fair difficulty" for review flop.

Eh i think it rain world perfectly shows why this is a necessary thing for gameplay. A few hours in on your first play through is nowhere near enough time to understand the gameplay mechanics. I remember being at shoreline and still feustrated at the controls, but then the game makes you go through even more shit all the way through five pebbles. By making reviewers finish the game, it could be a way of forcing them through the wall that some games have, that way they can describe the process of learning and tell potential buyers what’s in store if they stick with it. The enjoyment of the moment to moment gameplay in this game for me is really only possible after slogging through it and it finally clicking. Otherwise I would have given up and had a bad opinion of it.

This whole argument could be summarized into "Normalfags are fucking retarded"

>A few hours in on your first play through is nowhere near enough time to understand the gameplay mechanics
I bet to disagree. You explore, look for food and evade predators, those are concepts not too hard to grasp.
But yes, opinion on the game should be made after initial frustation.

> Another game running after the whole Souls like difficulty without actually understanding it. As the director of Souls game said, there is a difference between a game being difficult and unreasonable. This game definitely fits the latter. Shame, they ruined an otherwise great game.
Fuck, he is so wrong that I'm mad.

Sure, you understand the concepts but what I mean is mastery over them. It’s one thing to be told what to do, it’s another to understand really how to do it. The latter takes more time with RW

The problem is reviewers play games to review games. The Thing got shat on when it released and it's one of the greatest movies ever.
When there is a barrier to entry, like harsher gameplay or repulsive gore the instinct of reviewers is to say it's shit and move on to the next one because they are lazy as all people are.
When the game doesn't hold your hand and says "go to there, do this, good job" they feel like they're wasting their time because unlike real players figuring out the world isn't their goal. Their goal is to put a fairly accurate stamp on the game as quickly as possible.
It doesn't help that reviewers are bad at videogames.

I mainly did it on the fly, you don't need exceptional "mastery" to progress. Those speedrunner moves looks nice, but they are mainly for speedrunners. Well, I want to say that RW requires unusual amount of common sense to play.

Can lizards grab you in screen travel pipes?

You can't get grabbed traveling through a pipe, so it's a good strategy to trick them into going one way as you're going the other.

does the flash bang work against lizards and daddies

It works against enemies sensitive to light. I think some lizards are but it depends on the environment they're adapted to. If by daddies you mean those long leg things, they're blind so no.

Only works against snipperbirds and shaded citadel spiders (IIRC), temporarily blinding the former and killing the entire room of the latter.
