Very glad they kept the art style from Curse. I’m already a sucker for hand-drawn assets but this style in particular is like visual candy. Hoping the impact of hits and parries (if they exists??) are as solid as they were in curse.

[@minoadlawan4583]

Yeah its better than the generic realism you see nowadays.

[@ItIsYouAreNotYour]

Is it me or does the combat feel sort of clunky or stiff?

[@bojcio]

hate over stylized stuff, don't play games with this style

[@KlassiusK]

Great little guide mate, thanks!

[@SanDiegoDaD]

Super excited !

[@LucasSenechal-e4t]

just learned about this game from "The Steam Valve" podcast deep dive on it. Looks cool!

[@Sinaxen]

This Video is perfect!

[@starfall0]

Just purchased the game. I'm enjoying it, but controls feel a little clunky sometimes, specially dash. Sometimes I'm facing a certain way and the dash goes somewhere else

[@lord_kelvin17]

Question. What is the meaning of the number x/30 under UPGRADES in the hero description section? After defeating the nightmare for the first time, this number became 4/30 and 4 upgrades show the gold symbol under the icon.

[@99xplord]

When you level a character they unlock upgrades and new changes to their abilities, the x/30 shows how many upgrades you have unlocked (note not all the upgrades are released yet)

[@lord_kelvin17]

@@99xplord So the fact that the upgrade number was not updated after every level up, is a bug. Thanks

[@galandilvogler8577]

@@lord_kelvin17 No, it's not a bug: that gold symbol marks the skills you had when you succesfully completed a run on that character.

[@Rakanarshi2]

How do you use the teleporters? I walk over them, nothing happens, I press random buttons, nothing happens.

[@fuzzbuttpanda]

You've probably figured it out by now, but for anyone else who needs to know, you open up your map and then hover over any teleport locations you've found and it will give you the teleport option

[@jb1139]

I'd like to enjoy this game. But the flickering black bar taking up 1/3 of my screen is killing the hype for me.

[@BowseyUwU]

how do you use consumables

[@UntoldBattles]

So is it out now cause I don’t see it on the market place

[@ugotcrabs3109]

yes steam only

[@UntoldBattles]

Gotcha, when does it come to console?

[@바보Queen]

so your abilities never change and the mods for it are only passive? they dont do anything extra cool to them.. like projectile's splitting or tornado's proc'ing??

[@LiteDuoVideos]

Wondering if someone can help, can you save on this game ? cant find it anywhere on steam nor is it saving auto.

[@lukepoplawski3230]

Tried my first run, was smoking the adds, then the master nightmare was summoned with like 4K health. He destroyed all my feathers and I barely got him 1/3 down. What did I do wrong? 😂

[@Eridani77]

You have to kill all five tentacles first. That'll stun the main body and strip it's defense, allowing you to whale on it for a bit. Wash rinse and repeat, as it will resummon the tentacles after the stun is over

[@lukepoplawski3230]

Reporting back in my own comment. I have beaten the game on nightmare 9 for all characters. The game is AWESOME. And the newly announced hero and map seem so cool. Really a great game.

[@Whiskersinge]

@@Eridani77 Just read this comment after putting about 2/3 hours into the game. Had no clue killing all of the tentacles stunned the boss. I've pushed 3 difficulties without EVER killing all of the tentacles. That's some good info to have.

thank you

[@mugszy7101]

Just started the game. I notice some characters are greyed out. Is this because it's early access or do these unlock in-game somehow? Thanks

[@GrownManPat]

Best the boss to unlock the others

[@thierryfaquet7405]

They are 2 locked characters currently. Beat the first chapter to get one, beat it again to get the other.

Do I just suck or what? Playing solo it's incredibly difficult to make it though any round.

[@detrimidexta]

I know, right? And forums are full with "This game is too easy!" posts.

[@99xplord]

The game gets easier as you unlock more ability upgrades< I like the Piper can solo the game with him even at Nightmare 5

[@Hamadochi]

Strong Hades vibes. Did they hired some artists which were already designing Hades?

[@vanardnb]

No, the developers made the game Curse Of The Dead Gods, which released not too long after Hades. It looks more like that than like Hades

[@hoopla5502]

This game looks almost identical in art style as they're previous game curse of the dead gods.

[@asersorari6891]

is there a matchmaking in coop or its manual Coding only ?

[@detrimidexta]

Only manual codes and Steam friends invites. No matchmaking yet

[@Evilxfalcon30]

Is this for ps5?

[@jleg8586]

How long does a round last ?

[@craigcochrane2284]

I think the Boss appears after 24 minutes (assuming you last that long). I think its 6 minutes per day so presumably 3 minutes of daylight and 3 minutes of darkess.

[@jleg8586]

@@craigcochrane2284 just killed the boss on my second attempt(only on normal though). It spawns at 25 minutes

[@LegacyGamingUS]

The game is out in early access now. Full launch will be about a year away.

[@skinnie2838]

Released today

[@Skoshtwo]

Let me preface my upcoming statement with the fact that I absolutely adore challenging games and I play every single one that allows difficulty options with the one on the top. This thirst for challenge, however, holds me under no illusion that some of these games are absolutely broken in many regards. Ravenswatch, unfortunately, falls into one of these broken categories. The enemies in this game are so cretinically spongy that it makes the lategame an absolute mess regardless of what you take or build. I don't understand how developers like this literally NEVER try a single run of their own game. Like just TRY your game ONCE and you'll know what the problem is. Holy fk

[@Aesy_Ford]

Anyone here when Sun Wukong was added?

[@vuhoang4181]

Why this game don't have pause mechanic when we shopping or upgrade skill ? I mean when we play in solo mode. I died alot when read the skill text. Bullshit

[@hegemon3]

How do you unlock the characters? I've beaten the boss and got Alladin, but the siren is still locked.

[@MrMrTravman]

Yeah, kind of a bummer theyre releasing with so little, but all the characters you can advance and difficulty selection will help a bit. Diablo 4 needs to get here now. Been a long wait since Blizzcon 2019.

[@InvadeNormandy]

@@MrMrTravman I don't know if people who still have hope for diablo 4 are naive or desperate at this point.

[@strawberryfrogforever]

@@InvadeNormandy the D4 beta was absolutely fine and I was soooooo ready to HATE it. Honestly was one of the crunchiest aRPGs I've played in a bit (and I've been doing my homework) and just enough complication for a casual like me. Made me somehow hype for a $70 (SEVENTY DOLLARS) game

? DOTA isn't a roguelike what are you talking about. DOTA is a moba how is it like this in anyway except it's top down

[@LegacyGamingUS]

Livid has played DOTA since it was a WC3 mod. This isn't anything like DOTA lol.

[@Paolini_18]

Only 5 spells is really low. Hope the game doesn't cost more than 10bucks

[@razorend22]

Yeah, an early access with only 1 map that will last a whole year according to the official post by the devs on Steam... You can realistically unlock everything and max every hero over one weekend. Given that their other game (Curse of the Dead Gods) is $19.99 on Steam after full release, I'm expecting $15 for this EA, which is admittedly a little steep.

[@hoopla5502]

​@Matija Trajkovic idk what post you saw but the road map on steam says the new map is coming in the summer which is definitely not a year

[@razorend22]

@@hoopla5502 That's great news, thanks! I just saw some Q&A type post where it said that the early access will last for a year, I didn't phrase that comment above well

@@razorend22 yea hopefully they stick to it . One map is just not enough . I'm surprised they added 10 difficulty levels before other areas

It's in early access, so yea it needs more time for sure . Still a bummer it's only got one map idk if I can go for it yet

[@foxy5652]

they are dropping early access. they mention the game is nowhere near complete and its in early access. early access meaning its coming in early for people to access if they want even without most content. so you see. if you look at it and it says early access then assume its still in the oven

[@strawberryfrogforever]

@Foxy I can give you a piece of bread and say my sandwich is in early access, would you invest? It's the super bare bones that just makes it unfortunate. Last Epoch is my vibe rn, it's also early access but has some meat in it's sandwich

[@foxy5652]

@@strawberryfrogforever I mean if the sandwich would be one i really like then yeah just the bread is technically early access. I see your point where a lot of early access out there have a lot more meat in the sandwich even during early access but every games early access would be diffferent. the developers could of held out from releasing the early access till later or give it to us now. think of it as them releasing what they have even earlier than what they would have for those interested in what small progress they have currently. I personally think the game has a lot of good things going for it but a severe lack of content for it. So seeing the good things which for me is the extremely diverse cast of characters it makes me hopeful that the game will end up good.

[@smooth9169]
