Hylics 2

How you guys liking it so far? I told myself I was gonna play the first one before starting this but I never got around to it.

First thing I noticed is how fucking clunky the platforming is. I can appreciate Lindroth wanting his environments to have more depth but christ it took me forever just to get the fucking banana in the first city. Don't even get me started on the mini game in the first area, I fucking suck at 2D platformers too. I just beat the Worm (2nd Boss) and honestly the combat's as fun as ever. I wish I knew what all the status effects did, but I've been managing. Soundtrack is fantastic as well.

Has the ost been posted anywhere?
I really like the music that plays when you fly the airship.

I remember someone posted a roughly 45 minute long video of a double-loop of some of the tracks ripped from the beta that was released two or three weeks before the official release. It got taken down in like a week. The boss theme was on youtube until today, it just got privated. I'm thinking Lindroth wants to release an OST for purchase and potentially put it on Spotify. It sucks because he nuked a lot of tracks from the first game on YT as well.

bump

it's out?

What did they do to my man Pongorma?

Came out June 22.

he got a new helmet

Everybody is saying it's janky as hell, I think I'll wait for a few patches before playing it

Yeah, the platforming is bad. Took me some time to get used to it and sometimes Wayne decides that he's not going to jump. That can me frustrating. Mason should give a player the ability to turn off the collision objects that are on the ground and make it nice and smooth, I would prefer clipping over this shit.
Combat is good, seems that many enemies are unique and require different approach, but I would appreciate if there was a run button or at least access to the menu during battles, sometimes I already know I've lost(for example thanks to the self replicating fuck) and I just can't load the game, I have to wait for them to murder me.

The jank is just kind of inherent, I don’t see how he could fix it other than having some kind of indicator of where Wayne is in relation to the ground while in the air at all times. Its just a penalty of Lindroth’s style, its hard to define boundaries.
