GRIME - All Bosses [No Damage]

[@NIHIL_EGO]

Shidra is supposed to be the one upholding the stability and structure of this world, hence his title. Visually, he's based on the spine, the organ whose function is to basically keep the body from falling apart. He's, in more than one way, the spine of the world.

[@2helecenergy667]

the spine an organ ? well my skull is a muscle lmao

you never really kill amalgam in the beginning he falls down to become misbegotten amalgam wich is why he seems kinda surprised to see you again or scared as the other guy says

[@claudiorodriguescaco2179]

Almost 22 minutes into the game and I was impressed with this game, especially with the soundtrack for each boss. I didn't expect so much and my jaw dropped to the floor. Congratulations to whoever made the game and whoever made the game's soundtracks. For me a masterpiece.

[@coaxialsynapse]

Alex Roe, he’s a god.

[@cytharion]

Had a blast with this game myself, the developers have been pretty good about dropping patches that fix bugs and add QoL features (like extra quick travel spots and respec)

[@peterc504]

How good was it compared to Hollow Knight & Blasphemous?

[@cytharion]

@@peterc504 well it's been 3 years but the game does focus on you using the absorb ability (pretty much a parry) for combat and absorbing other creatures to upgrade. If you don't like parries in your Metroidvanias then you might not like the game. The different weapons you can find and build around is pretty cool. I did a twinblade build myself. The game has a pretty cool cosmic horror vibe to it as well.

[@peterc504]

@@cytharion thanks for the reply! I actually got it for free thru Amazon prime gaming lol but my back log is insane and I'm currently playing last faith... I did read a few people mention grime was a good metroid Vania so I wanted to get info before I waste anytime.. I only have enough time for the really good games like hollow knight.. I'm currently eyeing nine sols and biogun.. Both demos were great

[@cloverbite]

Hell yeah Gellot! So much fun to watch you wreck the game like that, thank you for making the video!

[@brandonwoodhouse358]

This game can be deceptively tough at times. Very fun. Unga build made it more manageable especially pre patch

[@ze_glitchy_gamer7629]

Blackhole for a head. Honestly, genius and original!

Person: "So... What are your skills?" Character played by Gellot: "I suck"

[@brejaemcasa]

The "uglyness" of the whole environment is beautiful! Amazing!

[@alex93091]

Kind of surprised you didn't pull on the Jawcrab and Vulture attacks. It's so satisfying shutting down Jawcrab by pulling and absorbing 90% of his attacks. (Also, I picked up this game after watching the vid and am having a pretty fun time; thanks for bringing it to my attention!)

[@Gonroamin]

This game actually looks like it does the metroidvania boss thing pretty well! Actual changes in the boss attacks, unlike 99% of them where the boss is just a wall of hp, and hopes you screw up the pattern, or get bored of fighting, after wailing on them for a half hour.

[@cosmosarts8709]

As an avid fan of metroidvanias myself, I have to agree with you here.

[@FrostedMike]

Also, the more I think of it the better the boss fights get in terms of design. Take The Final Performance for example: you can feel the story behind, how the fight tells it. Full of small details that reinforce it more like how the performer bows when parried to give us the center stage. The patterns are elegant and flowy and half of the time not targeted at us, we're just in the way. It's a dance off, not a fight, and it's beautiful. Shidra. We can feel his frustration and how hard he tries despite his "old age". He hits hard and crafts his attacks because this is his profession. We start off with him trying to outsmart us and give him the best advantage he could get. Phase 2 is literally him fighting till his end. He gets slow and tired, but his fighting spirit is still intact. Beating him is destroying the spine of the world. Even farther: every time we beat a boss there are less enemies in the world and the layout change a little. Our actions have consequences. Shidra doesn't call us "Akhlan" (Hebrew for "Eater") for nothing, we come, eat and go. We destroy everything and there is less of it the more we eat... Each boss fight, as stupid as they looks, have a purpose for the big picture: we eat EVERYTHING, with no exceptions.

[@weedsmokinmetalhead]

Id definitely agree on that, this game has some beautiful boss fights. I also thought Blasphemous did their boss fights extremely well to.

[@gyocy6820]

12:56 hahaha just noticed that when you killed the Jaw Crab all the pieces come to drop to the front. it looks sick! like if it was an ant glass dome.

[@mrmosty5167]

[@mahlawn2808]

[@appleandaria6947]

From what I've gathered, the player-character is meant to put this world out of its misery since it's slowly dying anyways.

[@umukzusgelos4834]

Looks like Glaves, the Fists and Swords are the best choice as far as weapons go also I just love how Shidra uses all the objects and artifacts he has accumulated over time in his battle

[@justaplaceholder6356]

I feel sad for the Amalgam, it was just chilling and then got harassed, basically blinded and killed by the same guy that then completely blinded it and absorbed its eye

[@ThatGiggleshitter]

Vulture battle was different, good to see a change from the slash-retreat-repeat method

[@knju1monsterhunt656]

1:51 Harmless(?) Rockgiant

[@bogi1]

he'd stay harmless if he didn't kill that little guy in front of him

[@andre_601]

"Harmless Rockgiant" followed by "Griefing Rockgiant"? Even without playing this game can I see a story behind this where the 2nd Rockgiant is mourning the death of his friend at your hand... Even the music is kinda sad in that regard, emphasizing what loss he possibly goes through.

[@ToadKwonDo]

very close, he is mourning his siblings, thats for certain

[@weedsmokinmetalhead]

Yeah all his little rock buddies. I wonder if he is the same one that is stuck in the wall/floor area in that little zone that opens up after you defeat the mother's.

[@gracio1231]

[@masterofThardus]

I think Shapely Fidus is a Dark Souls homage. Just look at everything about the fight. The arena, his introduction, his moveset, his theme. It all screams "Dark Souls."

[@JayoftheCanadianPath]

This whole game screams Dark Souls. It's a soulslike and that's clear from the beginning. However, it makes itself its own thing and creates a brutal yet joyous experience. Also, Shapely Fidus is a girl. You can see it in her figure.

[@YannMetalhead]

With Hollow Knight, Grime has the best bosses in the Metroidvania genre. Shapely Fidus and The Final Performance were really fun bosses.

[@Variocom]

Thanks to the rather...unique lore of the game, it's actually not that simple. The only thing that's certain is the character you play as is an asshole. Whether he's a bad guy, neutral, or something else isn't quite clear.

@Jiro The 2nd wolf Well, that what i did, i always check the requirements and make sure everything is in order but ya know sometimes it doesnt work no matter what...

So I got a question, why does six of the bosses (such as the Harmless Rockgiant, the Grieving Rockgiant, the Desert Watcher, the Jawstag, the Jawcrab and the Artisan of Flesh) have the color white for the first halve of the outline for their health bars, and have four bare segments in the first halve the health bares, and yet the rest of the seven bosses don't?

[@Gellot]

Red healthbar indicates that you can parry and absorb certain attacks of the bosses. White bar means you can only parry, but won't be able to absorb attacks.

[@augustbornone]
