15 Tips for New Players ► Asterigos: Curse of the Stars

[@ConCon]

They said this in an announcement recently "If you pre-ordered Asterigos: Curse of the Starson Xbox, you would be able to start playing today, October 8th, at 16:00 UTC. PlayStation players with pre-orders can enter the City of Aphes on October 8th at 0:00 local time."

[@eliascarlsson2624]

They should really implement a Map for this game, got lost like 20minutes into the game lol

[@ConCon]

Haha I feel that the lack of a map is both a good and bad thing for this game. It encourages exploration and immersion but also lets you get lost a lot.

[@loufun1728]

Yep 😂

[@orsdekany2594]

It's not that bad actaully. I get lost every singel area, (only in the pit), but everything is a dead end, or a shortcut, or the main quest, and its not that hard to differentiate.

[@orsdekany2594]

Tho I played lot of metroidvenias, so that might be the reason, why I dont find it difficult to navigate the map. Eventho you dont need a map, I dont really understand why the game doesnt have one, the game makes tons of things really easy and comfortable, like teleporing, changinh weapons/upgradeing whenever, pause the game to get a different setup, quick healing item consumption, player friendly counter intervals etc. Only played a code vein as a soulslike, started challenging and its not that bad, even if you get 2-3 shoted without healing if you dont dont spend too much points into max hp and a fuckton of stamina to work with.

[@akhenaten3276]

@@ConCon It would be nicer to have a map. Makes no sense that I still wouldn't explore. Can beat borderlands 3 in 2 days but ill spend a week becausing of goofing off and exploring lol. I think the convience is nicer. Make selection for map or no map.

[@Ducky2317]

Thanks for video!! Just picked up this game over the holidays as I saw it on sale and didn't know much about it but looked fun. I am having a good time with it and I like Sword and Staff as my weapons (going for that Mage Knight feel). Tips were very helpful!

[@ConCon]

Glad to help you

[@wakeup3379]

Great video, I've been playing since midnight on the 8th and I learned 4 things I didn't know until watching this video. Also I think the game is great and now that I know all your extra pick-ups go into storage it's even better.

[@ConCon]

Glad I could help!

[@chillylevel2572]

I've recently discovered that there isn't a clear path exactly so thanks for the first tip!!

[@breakdownsandmore]

Very good video dude. I’m like 30 hours in and just wanted a refresher haha. These tips are good for people just starting because this game really doesn’t hold your hand at all. Getting lost is easy for sure

[@ConCon]

Glad it helped! it's really easy to get lost indeed

[@Xariann]

The bracelets also turn into weapons. So if you want to do a fully magic build but also want to use weapons you can use the bracelets. Although the magic weapons are not the easiest to use they deal a TON of damage.

[@ConCon]

Glad you like them :D

[@mcmarc5384]

brother you are awesome thank you

[@surfingkiwinz]

Great video! I'm really enjoying the game quite fun

[@ConCon]

Glad you're enjoying it! what weapons are you using the most?

[@surfingkiwinz]

@@ConCon the daggers and the wrist one's seem to be my favorite right now . Your choice?

[@ConCon]

@@surfingkiwinz Daggers and staff mainly, but I've been upgrading my spear to replace the staff. Counter attacks are so cool to do

[@DXFromYT]

What would you recommend in terms of attribute point distribution? I'm trying to spread them out somewhat evenly but saw you had 22 just in ATK. Is this just for a playstyle or would you recommend foregoing the other stats?

[@ConCon]

Oh I was just testing it out on that new save. But evenly is actually really good, if you use abilities a lot then put more points into the last attribute because it will do so much damage and your AP will generate so fast that you can build it up and spam abilities over and over

[@DXFromYT]

@@ConCon Ah, nice. Thanks! I'm going to try that out, it sounds fun and really effective.

[@OmniscientWarrior]

If you are willing to spend a bit of time dying to learn enemy attack patterns, which you might do anyways, all attack will make it a bit easier to win without being hit however you will become a glass cannon.

[@DXFromYT]

@@OmniscientWarrior Thanks for the advice!

[@geojimz]

Thanks to this video I found the blacksmith. I swore I tried talking to her and I couldn’t so I never went back to her. I was getting my butt kicked with my level one weapons lol.

[@ConCon]

Oh damn haha glad to help you though

[@ironman82tr]

Never knew about those rabbit things wth!! So they just assume you're going kill everything to find things out. Lol

[@ConCon]

Lol perhaps so

[@Nedk82]

I pre ordered this and at first it was decent but after an hour in it becomes so much better and the spells and skills are actually really good. Sad thing is if this game was polished it wouldn’t be good it would be great. For a small budget title I’m surprised I went into this game expecting a somewhat decent game kill sometime I’m glad I was wrong. Very enjoyable once you get used to low visuals

[@ConCon]

Yeah it's really cool and like you said has the potential to be great. Excited to see how the change the game and for the DLC next year

[@odessazahn]

I'm 3/4ths through my first play through and did not know about at least half the tips. Thank you! What are your thoughts on the currency? I want to upgrade my weapons and buy the Starite ore fragments, but wasn't sure if its needed for something else later on. This is my speed run at level 20 so trying to prep for the NG+

[@ConCon]

Upgrade your weapons as early as you can

[@odessazahn]

@@ConCon Thank you so much for the quick reply. I've been trying to find how to get more of the Starite ore fragments, but so far it looks like i won't be able to do much until the second playthrough. Havent been grabbing chests since Im trying to get through the first one quickly. If you have any suggestions on alternative ways I'd really appreciate it

[@izorion6443]

How do I activate retracted ladders? Throwing knives and staff bolts don't seem to work

[@ConCon]

You have to do it from the top

[@Omairi86]

Thanks for the tips ... A question please does the slower weapons aka hammer do more damage cuz when i rewind your video a couple of times to compare with other weapons and i dont see any different.. in fact i guess the daggers did more than the hammer?

[@ConCon]

My daggers and staff are the only fully upgraded weapons in the video, so don't compare the damage. Daggers, staff, spear and sword and shield are really good and easy to play

[@Omairi86]

@@ConCon agree about that ... But im the kind who used to play slow heavy weapons with high damage kind so i was wondering if the hammer would really do significant high damage or slightly higher which would be not worth it cuz i didn't start leveling any weapon yet and i dont even know if there is a way to respec your points or not ... Cuz I'm playing on challenger difficulty and i dont want to waste any points without knowing the damage difference. Sorry for the long reply

Yea it's kinda bullshit, that was the whole point of pre-ordering. I ended up refunding it on series x a couple hours ago and buying on ps5.

[@whitewolf1054]

@@mdog86 and is the refund work by Microsoft?

[@mdog86]

@@whitewolf1054 Yep, they pretty much immediately refunded it. Microsoft is actually pretty lenient when it comes to refunds.

[@mdog86]

Not sure if I just missed it, but what are the little diamonds that sometimes pop up above the bottom right bar? Some of the hud elements are kinda confusing lol, great game though

[@ConCon]

Magic gems, it's one of the earliest talents you can unlock. The more gems you have (max 3) the faster the blue bar fills up
