Just picked this up this weekend after hearing about it for these last few months. I'm a bit into Act 1 and I'm loving it so far. I've got to get better at parrying, but I'm loving the fight mechanics.
Story and music are S tier so far also.

I beat the game without having pressed dodge unless it was the tutorial. Beating Sprog with the dmg cap basically skyrocketed my confidence and really was great parry training for me. Took me I think 33mins to beat him with something just north of 700 parries. Thats just the fight I won…I’ll ignore the time spent prior.
Long story short: Practice and practice and practice. Pay attention to the sounds and what the animation looks like at the time of a successful parry. For example: If magic attack is thrown my way…where was that animation at when I timed a correct parry. All of the cues are there. Will take a few times but it adds to the fun and extends the life of the game.

That should be your main focus. Parrying. I think I only dodged when fighting the mimes.

nice bro i did similar on geforce now with a slight input delay.

New patch is live on console now not just pc. Once you get to act 3 at any flag you can cap your own damage at 99,999 or 999,9999 or increase enemy hp by 5x, 10x, 20x, 50x, or 100x as well as some type of enemy damage increase options as well.
You can also replay Simon after beating him.
But this means that the end game can no longer be made comically easy if you wish and you can tailor it to your own taste. Including the final main story mission if you decide to not go straight to it.
Other parts of the patch make story mode MUCH easier, fix over 200 reported bugs or incident reports. And more.
You can now adjust the audio and music mixing to where in certain scenes you can’t hear one or the other because of how loud one is.
It’s version 1.300.100, and full details can be found on their dev vlog. It launched on pc 3 days ago but just went live on console. Obviously the big thing here is the ability to alter the difficulty from any flag to your own taste at any flag once you get to act 3

I wish they'd let us fast travel to ANY flag in ANY zone (e.g., if I'm at a flag in Flying Waters and want to travel to the flag in Dark Shores).

Need restart fights as well.
Posted on 6/12/25 at 12:52 pm to Blitzed
Loadouts too, since we're asking for things 
Posted on 6/12/25 at 1:15 pm to Sl0thstronautEsq
Yup!
I imagine the next game with have loadout options and maybe restarts.
Oh lawd it would be about as perfect as it could be.

I beat the hidden arena solo fights with Maelle doing this. Then I farmed it for a while because it's great XP!

Took out Visages on the first try
accidentally skipped the anger path before fighting him. Hope I can go back and get anything I missed. That damn Chromatic on the sadness path that you can only hit by parrying took me about an hour though
What a trippy area though. I was in awe

I wish you could map your controller in this game.
I don't know if my right bumper button is wonky, but I have issues parrying sometimes. I rarely dodge so being able to swap the bumper for the B button would let me know if my controller needs to be replaced.

Just hit the end of act 2. Wow. What a story. I had it completely wrong. Incredible stuff
Also, glad to see the damage barrier is broken by a pictos, I thought my builds were just to weak
Flying around with Esquie hitting all the new places now

Im about to go finish the main story. I've done everything else that I can find, including the endless tower and Renoir's drafts and defeating everything there.
This game is one of, if not THE, best game I've played in years. Everything about it is top notch, but the music brings it to the next level.

On my third playthrough and the music gets me every time.
I want to try to 100% the game, but I find myself just playing through it over and over again just because I like everything about it.

Play through the first couple zones you encounter on the continent.
There are several chroma blockages that you probably missed because you didn't have the ability to break them yet. I remember one in particular in Stone Wave Cliffs that has a new pictos behind it.

Sorry haven’t posted here in a while. Been very busy with work and time here was on the poli board.
There was reported numbers today about the game, yet to verified by sandfall so take it or leave it. They do include gamepass
3.87 million sales (including returns which was said to be around 50,000)
Played by over 15 million on game pass. That statistically isn’t very helpful since they could’ve played for 5 min, but I it’s absolutely insane how successful this game was. the team of brave lads and lasses who went on it at there own outside the studio system really really hit the jackpot bigly
I hope they scale up slightly to maybe 60 people and do what Larian is doing, work on two projects at once. Maybe a sequel to this and a new IP
Btw I was able to duo Simon at x10 difficulty using Maelle and Monoco one for each phase.
Also anyone playing on pc I believe there’s a mod out there that puts that character back into the game post act 1

I'm glad they are getting massive returns.
I will blind purchase the next game they come out with because of how much I loved this one.
