@neogeo8man the axe knight/medusa head hallway is solved by just holding forward and holy watering the knights mid-jump, you get got when you get nervous and stop moving
but honestly holy water breaking the game is like its biggest flaw, non-holy water runs are a tier higher in difficulty
@neogeo8man closest thing is the medusa heads but they just punish hesitation, if you just hold forward they either pass right over you or you can jump over em, i forget which pattern it is in cv1
@fishwasher@osu_MeovvCAT ironically i don't really expect anything with naoto to change much because her musings on gender are pretty mild compared to the kanji stuff which is pretty in your face, but i may be proven wrong, who knows
@fishwasher@osu_MeovvCAT i'd like to read this as "kanji is bi" as much as anyone but it really strikes me as atlus sanding down the more provocative or explicit edges of kanji's shadow and dungeon. it's how they handled the more confrontational parts of p3 too ie. yukari in the answer.
@FlanniScarlet@gwenchana143 Highkey if I could pay $420 right now to get the remaining weapons I need I would fork over the cash in an intant, I am your slave KMR jr.
@FlanniScarlet@gwenchana143 There's only 12 weapons so it's not as bad as the dama bar & sun stone scamchas where you always want/need more and more of them.
@PsySmasher yeah sadly it's a rich get richer situation but now i can 0b1s pbhl without it at least
the gap will probably rear its ugly head again next water gw
@Zamamiro4026@MinModulation it's coal because i'm gonna be forced to look at this image 20 times a day for the next 10 years posted by some retard engagement farmer going "wokies think this is what gamers REALLY want in 2026"
@MinModulation people endlessly mocked the french ign reviewer for calling stellar blade eve a "doll" and all i got out of it was 50 shitpost threads on /v/ about the game every single day for years, now the sequel is pure unfettered coal, it didn't improve discourse at all
@MinModulation yeah i don't have a solution on hand for this type of behavior but evidently making a huge decades-long drama out of every journo or developer with a bad take hasn't really done much to stymie anything
@MinModulation also much like how schreier obviously isn't calling people pedophiles for liking dragon's crown, this girl obviously isn't calling people criminals for liking the game
it makes me sad that this is the game's legacy, far more than anything to do with the actual artistry
@MinModulation semantics is gay and retarded but yes, saying "official" there is done to make the person look more important, as if there are "unofficial" industry staff to meaningfully contrast with
"gearbox artist" would've been fine, it's how she's addressed in the article
