This is a somewhat hesitant "yes" from what i've played so far of the game. The game, as usual with Team Cherry games, is ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ beautiful, and the amount of care and attention that went into how the game looks and feels to play (most of the time) shows.

That being said, while I'm choosing not to mod the game for my first playthrough, I can completely understand why some players choose to reduce most of the "2 damage" hits down to 1 damage. The amount of "oh this randomly does double damage" in Silksong seems extreme, even for as early on as I am in the game. To take examples from Hollow Knight, the final boss from that game (either one, same point) dealing 2 damage is understandable. The hidden boss in the Grimm Troupe DLC dealing 2 damage in some hits is understandable. The earliest example of a 2-damage boss in HK is an enemy that could easily be avoided. In silksong it's like the second required boss.

Note: these are RAW mp3s. There's nothing extra to them. No credits for the people that arranged the tracks, no album art, nothing to emulate the small slip document thing in most cd's, not even having the mp3s have any metadata at all. It's just the mp3s. No wav for those of us that might care more about audio quality.

They're lucky that P&W have some really good tracks. As much as I don't like certain lore stuff that P&W did, its music was consistently excellent, as is a lot of MONICA's Drakengard/Nier work.

There's this boss you encounter early on that really feels like they could be their own playable character. Like, their boss movement abilities look like they could be really fun and responsive. But it seems like the devs won't- what do you mean it's out?

It's a really good game with nice gameplay (the 3 lane system gives a nice bit of meat to chew on), and a nice story. Wish there were some post-game stuff, I'd love to be able to do more with the legendary weapons than just have them and use them on the final boss. The plot does forget some important characters to the setting (ie Yorick), and does have the usual RPG issue of "we need to save the world right now, let's mess around and do some fishing or side-quests!", some parts feel like they haven't had the most playtesting, but it's extremely ambitious and a nice outing for Riot Forge.

I hope we get more games with it- what do you mean they closed down? Well, all the companies involved must have gotten nice paychecks for doing League of Legends stuff- what do you mean Song of Nunu's devs shut down? Did Riot at least do any advertising for the games? Well, League had a skin of Gangplank as in this game... And not a lot else. Hmm....

I'd have recommended it if Riot Forge's disbanding made it any clearer whether Airship Syndicate is getting the money from people buying it anymore. Also, it's a League of Legends thing, so buying it gives money to Riot Games. In my mind that's a massive downside.

Note: review as of 1/7/2025, so Chapters 1+2 are in the Demo and 3+4 are paid.

If you've played Undertale, play Deltarune. If you haven't played Undertale, play Undertale, then play Deltarune. It's not quite required reading, the story should still make sense, but there's so many little references and details and whole interesting spins on things from Undertale that make Deltarune feel especially interesting to think about. Understanding Undertale makes theorising about Deltarune VERY VERY INTERESTING.

But in terms of the game, it's really good. You can't get this from an egg !It's filled to the brim with personality and charm. Even in the most serious chapter, there's enough fun charm that I can't help but giggle at one particular fight.

number go up make brain go woo

Google "Randy Pitchford USB".

My disgust at Randy Pitchford is not worth the small amount of money this cosmetic would cost. You won't be picking this up intentionally unless its via Handsome Collection or similar.

Let's go gambling.

"Nowhere to run now, Dan Brown!" and "I'll get you HP Lovecraft!" are things an actual character says to author Alan Wake.
