okay what the FUCK just happened

pretty much how I feel about it
I can kill lizards pretty consistently now though, but vultures and scavs still fuck my shit up
Ayden Ramirez
It's easily one of the most important games of the last decade and an instant classic, but the videogame industry and public are too deep into moviegames and artsy fatsy walking simulators that completely miss the point of videogames as for now.
Expect this game be in every clickbait TOP 10 list of underrated games of all time in about 5 years and see every journalist suck its cock without having poured more than 1 hour into it.
Austin Fisher
At first I thought you just ascended but later I started to think that there was more to it.
I don't think the the place in the opening was ever actually physical and when you fell you fell from heavens. It explains how there is no slugcat jungle anywhere on the map and how you can keep reincarnating constantly.
Juan Roberts
It's fun until you realize you can't avoid dying for no reason

I completed Rain World the other week. I honestly think it's one of the best games I've played.
I'm looking for a new game to start, but I keep thinking how it'll pale in comparison to Rain World.
It was such a unique and enjoyable experience.
James Miller
Die Rain World shill, die.
Anons, do not buy this game, do not even pirate it. Its a shit game that plays and looks like a flash game from 2010 on adult swim.com, has zero instructions on how to play, shitty wobbly physics engine that makes movement a chore and jumps imprecise 80 percent of the time, enemies spaz out and flail like party streamers, screens load after like 5 seconds, a random enemy can kill you on the next screen load with zero time to react, you need to grind for food to unlock the next level, and if you die the game boots you back down a level to repeat this process all over again
Its a shitty autistic '''''survival''''' game for autistic furfags who will say to not read the wiki and "just go in blind bro its the best experience! :)". Shitty artificial difficulty indie hipster game with a small clique fanbase circlejerking each other over this game

Dude chill. Just because you don't like a game doesn't mean it's bad. Play something else, maybe you get more enjoyment out of that.

Actually Rain World isn't so frustating, it is exaggerated. Even Cultist Simulator is far more frustating.
You, basically went into the Underworld. Hades. Like in fairytale or when you die. Worms are inhabitants of the Underworld, a species adapted to live there. (Note that Leviathans have some similarites to them, they have common ancestor or some shit.) Worms sometimes act like a guide for lone souls.
Jacob Long
you had a shadow and audio cures to warn you
i had a few frames to warn me
Mason Myers
"it doesn't tell me how to have fun, so its bad"
Julian Diaz
Well, it is the most wrong scoring for the game ever, even 3.0 for God Hand pale in comparison.
Nathan Watson
Sometimes it's really unavoidable, not going to argue about it, but in this situation: You generally hear music before vultures land. You can also see their shadow in the background sometimes and they don't instantly snatch you since they hover over you for a moment. You could've also thrown your spear
Henry Ramirez
I think Rainworld is just a really niche game. The game is absolutely unfair, RNG, inconsistent. The problem is it needs all of that to build the atmosphere it's going for. If there was a 100% way around all the monsters, you wouldn't be taking risks so much as just getting objectively good. If the physics didn't drive the action so much, you wouldn't get so many stories out of it. If the world wasn't so full of traps, it wouldn't fill you with the horror that it does in certain parts.
I wouldn't recommend the game to everyone at all, but I will say I really love what it accomplishes.
Easton Reed
the nice thing is that when you start a new game and just dick around it turns out that that's a lot of fun too
Josiah Bailey
It really seems to be the trend with games that dare to be different/harder than what the mainsteam (read - fermented beancurd boys at game journo outlets) are comfortable with. Pathologic 2 is going through the same experience atm
John Garcia
>Find batnip
>get unlimited supply of food forever
Where do you see a shadow in my WebM?
Asher Sanders
Rain World is the first game since Hollow Knight that captivated me like it.
Both games have flaws, but it is just something about the atmosphere that really immerses you into the world.
also wouldn't have expected Rain Worlds map to actually be bigger than Hollow Knights
Leo Butler
>The Survivor
Jaxon Robinson
just before you got bit.
Cooper Watson
did you just gloss over the danger symbol the yellow dude showed you? you could've just jumped off the pole and waited.
Still, the game is pretty unforgiving with unavoidable deaths but after enduring the shit it gives you for so long you start not to mind it. It's not hard to get 4/7 food pips then sleep for the singular lost karma.
I get how it can deter anyone to keep going but when you learn how to deal with the occasional cheap deaths you get a really nice experience overall.
Carson Ward

>when those guys start to appear on your survivor run
Eli Lewis
That's a danger symbol? I thought it was an indication that my karma wasnt high enough for the nearest karma gate. Most of the time it appears when theres no enemy nearby though

anyone have this scene/screen but on a better resolution and without slugcat's visual bug?

Jackson Lee
Well, somebody blame the game, somebody learn to not to stand under the naked sky.
Jaxon Harris
>tfw online coop will never be a thing, and ywn host a party/v/an and see tons of slugcuts all running about
i think it would be a cool 'survival of the fittest' thing.
Carson Gonzalez
Ian Edwards
there is a mod for that and it is coming on the next update though
just no party/v/an yet
Christian Morris
I have this.
Aaron Russell
the game renders in 720p so everything above that would just be upscaling
that said, a nearest neighbor upscale would be fine since it's so blocky.
Samuel Bell
really? i know there's local coop and weird programs that you can technically get it working online
i think a Yea Forumsan could be really fun if everyone agreed to aim for one area/shetler each cycle, and get there by any means necessary.
Ryder Lopez
>unknowingly walk past five pebbles
>Climb up the wall instead
>Close to the top, everything starts to get blurry and strange lights fly past the background
>On top is this weird alien like thing and this atmospheric music
>My karma increases after getting brain microwaved
I missed the dialogue, but finding that echo on top of the wall made accidentaly going the wrong way so much more impactful after the grueling climb.
After going to five pebbles, he would've felt more like a scripted part of progression instead
Camden Carter
The screen transition in Rain World is fucking awful
Mason Jenkins
are you the same dude from a few weeks ago that hyper mad when people called you out on being shit at vidya ?
Blake Lewis
How were the ancient humans supposed to enter iterators without the need of acrobatics and tunnel shenanigans?
Jaxson Jenkins
Sebastian Rivera
i get the feeling that all those were mostly for maintenance. the stuff they actually used was more delicate and all broke down already.
Jace Baker
I could imagine that maybe all those things were build seperately and then put together.
Basically like building a humongous PC.
Also there is the pretty direct entrance to five pebbles on the other end connected to the city with all the big paintings

Its very implied that there was some sort of ancient civilization before and Im pretty sure according to the architecture, they would probably be human sized
Brody Morgan

Austin Rogers
The areas you play in are either decaying automatized decaying industrial complex, or a part of the 5P superstructure, and where the Ancients never even went to. The only place they were present in-game is the Depths and Shaded Citadel, there you can see the walkways and passages they used. The rest is maintenence tubes and filtration systems. Pretty well tought out from the dev's part

Yes, some sort, but are they humans?

Carson Moore
Because these are found near 5Pebbles, and here disdainful of their actions and curses them for giving him near Immortality and an impossible and inconsequential tassk for him and the other iterators to solve. So he hates them.
If you bother to check the archives you wouldn't spew disinfo like this. But oh well. Also

Yeah, switch release and some sales brought threads throughout the week
It's a good game but it likes to fuck you up the ass

If you managed to play the whole game before you deserve some props;
swimming had about 3 seconds of air, spears did jackshit damage, spidergrubs took 2 hands and hampered movement, map didn't save on death and more
Why did they make her so DELICIOUS

I never found Moon in my first playthrough because I ignored the overseer almost completely.

I immediately put 2+2 together but I was so annoyed at the game by that point for sending me through shorelines that I ate them all to spite her for not patting my head and calling me a good boy.
Isaac Lewis
Ryder Allen
>taking your anger out on poor moon
absolutely heartless
Daniel Sullivan
I agree that Monk is stupid easy 95% of the time.
Places like the Shades Citadel, Filtration and Subterranean I find to be way easier on Hunter because his spears actually do damage. With Monks nonexistent damage, one or two lizards can stop all progress in these very cramped zones.
Without mods the way I made my Monk run more challenging is by going full pacifist and vegetarian.

I just didn't find the environment fun to explore. All the screens looked the same and I felt like there was no progress made.
Camden Reed
t. didn't make it out of outskirts and quit after an hour or two
Jordan Cook
Let me guess, you would like a map and an arrow pointing where you have to go
Am i right?
Daniel Bell
Yes, that is exactly what happened.
A map is nice, arrows not so much. Map is less needed if the areas looked more distinct though.
John Sanchez
How do you feel about it, Yea Forums?
Gabriel Flores
You have literally not left the first area if you think they aren't distinct.
Isaac Bailey
oh, it's out? damn
Daniel Cooper
Don't buy the switch port, cool game though.
Robert Fisher
Where do I go after I met the robot chick in shoreline?
Jason Mitchell
Not out yet, kinda close to completion last time i heard.
Jaxon Lopez
I want to FUCK slugcat!
Oliver Richardson
Well, the rooms I should say. I have no idea if I left one area for another, just that I wandered around for a bit and didn't find anything interesting.
Game have to impress before the refund limit is hit.
Landon Thompson
WHEN
it's "out", if you're in a very old version, some campaigns are out but not everything is there.
the "real deal" is coming out when the game itself updates to 1.7, the dev mods are waiting until the new game version comes out and they'll release the mod when it is
Alexander Green
Up.
Jason Jenkins
The rooms are very distinct.
Carson Wilson
they aren't holding the mod hostage, they're still working on it. Only a lot of coding, art and beta testing is left, rooms are all done except a small amount.
Connor James
I guess we just have to agree to disagree.
Julian Lewis
I feel I'm ready to play as this big boy
Kayden White
ok, so you barely explored a tiny part of the entire game in one single region that follows a theme, didn't bother exploring anymore and then called the game shit for not appealing to your 3 minute long attention span?
user that's not how games work
Levi Lewis
He never called the game shit you dingus
Grayson Parker
Me on the top.
Charles Thompson
You are a wizard ha... oh
Aaron Clark
I just explained why it didn't capture my attention. I did not call the game shit.
Do not criticize my attention span if you do not have enough yourself to even read my posts properly.
Nicholas King
1.7 when?
i tried looking at the devs twitter, but it's just a bunch of shite about abortion laws
Kayden Morales
same man
why did they have to make him so cute?
everytime I die I keep thinking about the enemies doing lewd things to him afterwards and I can't concentrate
Liam Price
I had to re-install Hollow Knight 3 times before it captured my attention enough to get past the beginning and it was worth it. Surpass the limits of your attention span and a whole new world of experiences will open up to you
Colton Foster
Have to store the information somewhere.
Grayson Smith
Imagine burying your face in the thighs of a being several thousand times more intelligent than you.
Leo Bailey
Sadly there is a fierce backlog competing for my time. If I gave all games the time they probably deserved I would never get through it.
And if I would re-try anything right now it would be la-mulana, a game that I felt had more interesting environments.
But I might fall for the meme and try it again, if the price gets low enough.
Chase Garcia
The beginning is kind of hard to get through for a lot of people, including me, and I say as this one of the few weirdos who looked forward to the game pre-release. IMO the first region is fairly tepid compare to the rest of the game, and the fact that you don't know what the fuck you're supposed to be doing likely doesn't help matters, but if you manage to push onward the qualities of the game will start to shine through.

It feels impossible. I've never had a game trap me with its difficulty this early. I'm thinking about dropping it but I'm genuinely interested in continuing it.
Jack Ward
if you die enough respawning food comes back and bats change locations
Henry Jenkins
Industrial complex was the easiest area for me
Julian Perry
frustrating I get, but intriguing? nah.
Brayden Howard
Co-op campaign without needing mods WHEN.
I would love to play this game with some a friend of mine because it has themes and and atmosphere he would love, but with a new kid around he doesn't have time to invest enough into the game to outskill or power through the bullshit rainworld likes to pull sometimes.
Not to mention it would be the fucking comfiest
Henry Young
the game saves your map. it's literally designed for you to die often and come back with previous knowledge. I think that's what makes this game so unappealing to me.
Easton Powell
God I must have had a mild stroke when I wrote this.
Sounds like you didn't get far enough.
Carter Cruz
The map used to only save when you hibernated, so if you died you would lose map progress throughout the day, but people complained it was too punishing so the devs relented.
Brandon Collins
lol, dude. just because your favorite game didn't intrigue me doesn't mean I didn't play it. besides we are at the time of wikis and google. If I wanted to own you I could just look up the story on the wiki.
Ryan Wilson
>it's literally designed for you to die often and come back with previous knowledge
It can be said for every game with reloads, and no, it is not designed around that.
