Is there a good word to describe the vibe of Blasphemous's world? It's very obviously neo/gothic, but the dark...

Spanish catholic

Think Spanish Inquisition period

basado

Gothzales

Macabre

goya souls

It's called baroque

Christian Horror

Baroquecore horror

>Anti-Christian

it's not gothic

Blasphemous is on the switch, you colossal retard.

*Grimdark

Blasphemy you simplodeon

Edgy.

Dark fantasy with a folk catholicism theme.

Pretentious.

It's just called Dark Fantasy.

Websterian

John Webster was the grimdark edgy kid of Jacobean era theatre.

It has a lot of Catholic influence.

A lot of gothic stuff includes religious imagery like that, it's just part of it. DMC1 and VtMB both have heavier goth influences and include a fair bit of religious stuff too. And Diablo 1.

Nope is more renaissance than baroque.

That art style is the Romantic style user.

Morrowind is kind of like that at times, but with a mix of typical fantasy stuff.

Also maybe Silent Hill 1 because of the cult aspect. Though it seems more industrial than goth, but still pretty dark and twisted.

religious grimdark

Perverse, and not the lewd kind.

It's just rennaissance catholic. I got huge nostalgia for all the catholic sights I visited on my trips to Italy and Spain while playing this.

Gothic is grotesque, you just need to get closer

It's a hipster memevania, with what distinguishes it from other hipster memevanias being a mixture of OG Painkiller and Outland. Not the most cool sources to plagiatrize now, huh?

I literally pity you having wasted your time on this trash.

no thats what I did it wasnt bad it was just annoying. The game is close to be great it is just filled with fucking constant annoyances.

Jesus christ the Fucking instakill pits and fucking SPIKES

Also no 3rd phase in true ending.

FPBP

Renaissance Catholic
Very reminiscent of Hell's description in The Inferno of The Divine Comedy

By the way, wanna know Hollow Knight'd deal?

Full Pipe (there it is, the source of your '"atmosphere'") + Devil May Cry 1.

These ones at least made an effort to unearth something classy, not fucking Painkiller, I can at least respect that alone.

it's just gothic why are Americans so uneducated?

I felt that during the demo and it's why I didn't have much interest in playing the full thing. Annoying aspects shouldn't be okay just because they make it more difficult, it's still annoying and you can have difficulty without it.

It's gay

Catholicore

Grotesque christian imagery. It's a comment on the wrongdoings of religion, even if the devs are christians themselves (or so I've heard).

>you can have difficulty without it.

Calm down failed normalfag

Are there any other games with a heavy religious vibe on their setting?
most fantasy games just follow a generic fantasy setting template so gameplay aside Blasphemous has at least a very unique setting / vibe

>gothic
No, the art styles looks some from italian renaissance to the 1700's

>boring idea of horror
that's what I wrote, yeah, you faggot

Religion is more interesting when it's part of a fantasy setting rather than being the setting
This game's world is a nonsensical clusterfuck that actively made me lose interest in the premise the more I played it
Be more like the Chad Morrowind, and flesh out a religion in a setting where it has room to grow and not be too overbearing

You seem to know a lot about reddit, plus your shitty taste.
Almost like you are a reddit regular...

>hurr muh KKK lmao
Fuck off with your retarded mongoloid shit mutt.

Fun fact: This game was developed in one of the most religious parts of spain.
There is a festivity where people crowd the streets to see huge statues of different virgins and saints they carry around town, just to cry and weep when they get close to them.

I'm kinda okay with pits full of insta-death spikes, but some pits are barely narrower that your jump distance.

Processions are comfy as fuck.

The klan are mutt larpers.
They don't even flagellate the bunch of virgin pussies.

The KKK is a perfect example of how burgers always take Yuro culture just to shit all over it.

>The chad flagellant vs the virgin ku klux klan

Its the internet and nobody actually cares what anyone of it thinks. This entire site is just a honeypot for self important people like you with strong opinions they think are facts but who can't actually handle criticism to argue for hours.

That Klan is after Protestants.

I wonder if a single worthwhile human being has ever used reddit as an adjective.

Grim dark and edgy.

Go back

Does this game have any replay value? How long is it?

12-20 hours depending on how much you explore.

If I beat the final boss and get one ending, can I go back later to get the true ending, or would I have to start over again?

"Weird christianity"

>edgy

epic fail & downvoted

>christianity
It's inspired by Spanish Roman Catholicism.
Read the thread nigger.

They really are. I'm as atheist as they come, but I always found christian imagery soothing for some reason.

If you've gotten the true ending first, then you're locked out of the other ending, since it involves destroying the guilt statues.

>can I go back later to get the true ending
Yes.

That's good to know, I've held off on destroying all of the guilt statues just to be sure

I don't get it

How the fuck is it horror?

These things were common all over Europe.

Ritual is human. It's theater, it's magic. It's designed to have an effect through aesthetic beauty. It works, I can say that much.

I can smell your shart from here, mutt.

KKK dress honestly looks like a bootleg version of this

how's that even comfortable?

Kill yourselves, faggots.

USA is a bootleg version of Yurop.

Yes, procession were common everywhere in Yurop but were celebrated differently. This particular style is very Spanish. The studio is based in Spain so it's clear where the creators got their inspiration from.

Its also the part of spain with more lazy welfare collecting retards.

Spain is very socialist. I went to a Rototom (music festival) and met some Spanish crippled dude in a wheelchair there and he only paid 20 bucks for the entire week and his companion (the dude taking care of him) had free entry.

Wait, adult men cry and people allow this?

What's wrong with men crying? Are you such an emasculated beta male that you can't express your emotions in a normal way?

dilate

When they are in the presence of their saviours yes. They show humility, pain, suffering and regret for their sins and hope they will be forgiven. That is what it means to be penitent.
It's just another form of meditation.

Look I don't care what they told you kids growing up. Men crying is something that should almost never be done. I get they told you it's ok. But it's not. All the previous generations understood this including mine.

cringe

Stop pretending, beta

I hope you understand some day. I'm sorry they raised you wrong as a joke. Go cry in public and look at the disgust on the faces around you. That's what people think. They might say otherwise.

Are you autistic? In the actual, non-meme way I mean?

Catholicism is a branch of Christianity, retard

it's.....Blasphemous

I forgot mutts are devoid of any emotion and morals apart from aggression, violence and cuckery because jews traumatized you as an infant when they took your foreskin.

Couldn't give a fuck. Maybe you should stop being so concerned about what normies think.

No, I'm from the last generation of men that were raised as men.

Gothic.
That's the only word you need, idiot.
Every specific feeling in the world doesn't need its own word.
It's gothic. Deal with the idea that its feeling isn't 100% unique.

and here you are, shitposting on a mental-hospice forum for man-children.

The blood fountains stopped working entirely
Penitent One walks over to them and I hit the prompt, but it doesn't bring up any option to heal or anything, and it won't let me gain new ones even while I have an empty flask

I'm playing on switch if that makes any difference

Tryhard fantasy.

Not american and uncut. Just not a pussy.
You should be more concerned.
I manage to do so without crying though.

I really doubt there's a good way to name it in one, precise word. It basically takes a single aesthetic idea, cranks it up to 11 and then applies it to every single design.

I've said it before, but the artbook is really worth checking out for anyone who likes the style. Not only it gives some additional info on certain designs but also notes that they took inspiration from both classical and modern art such as Francis Bacon or Goya.

no one gives a shit, cry-baby faggot

Fuck bacon was such a hack.

Grimdark

I know for a fact I'm going to regret replying and asking why, but I might as well - what's your reasoning?

Fear & Hunger has a similar kind of atmosphere, even though it is thematically very different.

He misunderstood a scene from battleship potemkin and made the same painting 500 times in a drunken stupor while in an abusive relationship with his boyfriend. His output was lackluster at best and the only good thing we got from it was silent hill. If we're talking outsider art, I prefer Darger.

I love Semana Santa because there's a chance to see retarded andaluces crying because it's raining. And even if it's sunny, you can watch retarded andaluces throwng their kids at statues. You can actually watch kids getting traumatized on live tv.
Meanwhile, we up north have comfy, actual cathedrals instead of former mosques and spend the festivities eating and drinking instead of worshiping idols.

What the fuck does she even do? I used her in the Our Lady fight and she just fucking stood there doing nothing.

I can see what you mean, but I'd disagree with it all being "the same painting". Besides just because someone misunderstood something doesn't make it any less of an inspiration.

Haven't heard about Darger so I decided to check it out and saw tons of art of underage girls. So I bet you fucking like it.

unique

post-abrahamic biblepunk

It's a 15k page epic sci fi story with accompanying tapestries about girls with dicks. Saw it in the national gallery, it was impressive in person. If I'm going to get down on crazy weirdos, I'm going to go all out.

fuckity poo it is

What I take from this post is that the average Spaniard must be kind of stupid to not know what socialism is.

Fun fact: You know what the core principle of gothic architecture is? Light. Letting as much light in as practically and stylishly as possible.

i liked this game, haven't played games like this ever since i was a kid trying to beat these ultra difficult SNES games
any other similar games for pc i might try out?

Sickdark

Hollow Knight is pretty good

Katana Zero is a good place to start
Sidescrolling slasher game with tight combat

I dont find anything romantic about it.

If it's kind of spooky then people just call it Gothic and be done with it
Gothic is the Dark Souls of art styles

I'm totally using this term to talk about games like Blasphemous or Cyberpunk 2077.
