I know I’m not posting those here anymore, but I think this kinda deserves a watch, so here we go:
2019.05.28 Daily Run Breakdown - #1 - Full Cursed Sword Run
Unfortunately failed yesterday to record a successful run with the same concept (full cursed sword run) in the Slumbering Sanctuary Phase 2 with all the Golems and things, but I shouldn’t drink that much before recording, so lessons learned At least I ranked number 3 there, but no proof I haven’t cheated without the video it seems
I know it’s the first biome, but I’m happy with the result… somehow managed to get extra 50-60 points more than previously what I had from the recording
Hey @onLooSe, I am still practicing Spelunky, but definitely going to do a bit more with Dead Cells too!
I actually managed one of these daily challenges, 2nd attempt, and it’s a biome I am very uncomfortable in. First attempt ended with the first golem I came across… Haha. So I am happy with the end result.
Slumbering sanctuary is such a cool biome from a visual design stand point but I absolutely hate the golems. Worst enemy in the game, so I tend to stay away from there.
Glad to see someone else picking up the dailies, I think Onloose was starting to feel lonely.
I am just continuing to play the game on normal mode, 0 cells, haha… And picking up the dailies is hardly a real thing, more like got the urge to try it out because of all of the inspiration from onLooSe. I think he found someone to compete with fairly regularly who’s actually close to his level, a French streamer that he actually gave a plug to in one of his videos.
Sounds fun… Slumbering Sanctuary phase 2 is always fun. Please do let me know if there’s a Cursed Sword from the start or close to it so I can bother with it
Yeah the french player is really good with really different style compared to mine We both don’t have much time though.
Don’t forget to get your 3 blueprints from the daily!
It’s good, but I’m used to this dark thing here in comparison >
You do the puzzle only once… so that’s more like personal crying compared to whatever information about the biome
I don’t like it 'cuz it can waste a lot of time and I’m not huge fan of the Cannibals on whatever difficulty. On top of them you have bombardiers while climbing… At least now they fixed a bit their 'nades, but still the combination is really brutal.
Why do you think did I RECORD the SOUNDS? I ran past every bell twice before I gave up rating the tone without being able to hear the others in quick succession. Felt like work lol
Just earlier today I found out wtf the Ossuary was for lmao I been there once and totally forgot about it until I looked up where to find that fkn rune.
Puzzle? I never thought the Clock Tower as a puzzle. I just run through and kill everything, and eventually I am ready to progress when I am able to go through. But yeah, those portals are super useful.
I don’t really know if you are serious at all… It took me probably like 30 minutes to think how to respond to this without sounding like an ass and I’m confident I can’t avoid it at all
It seems you checked how to get the punishment shield blueprint in a biome you aren’t feeling comfortable to go in even on 0 cells difficulty… Ok that’s not unheard of, but when you consider the fact that you have probably less than 80% of all the gear unlocked - my opinion is that you kinda overextended for a bit and yet it’s not even close to being one of the hardest blueprints to get. You are complaining it wasn’t handed out to you without any effort or something, cuz it’s the only one that uses such mechanics to bring some minor extra interest to the biome in the first place.
It’s an alternative biome to the Ramparts when you go through the Promenade of the Condemned… or natural extension to the Prison Depths and my place to go through, 'cuz I find the enemies there to be far more suitable for my play style. It’s an option you aren’t forced to do when you get what you need from it anyway. Same situation with the Clock Tower, where I prefer the Forgotten Sepulcher instead. This is where the metroidvania aspects comes in the game. Gear choices can dictate your biome preferences as well, but I think that’s too advanced planning for now.
I try to see how you can have some complains about any of those things and yet I don’t see any justification. Try to stick to the game if you enjoy it … if you don’t, you are pretty much forcing yourself to something you will probably never like and get good at.
I’ve seen plenty of complains, but not a single one about those things. Try to have fun and adjust to the situations presented to you. There’s plenty of things to learn in this game … especially how to play in certain biomes.
I enjoy the game, I just am not good at telling if a tone is slightly higher or lower than another one I can’t hear for another 30 seconds which makes the puzzle (also due to the background music) horribly boring to me.
the biome is no problem, I just hate the permanent climb in it
I’m pretty sure I hardly even unlocked 33% of the gear
