Level 24 killed me. It took forever for me to get the timing right and once I finally got through without hitting anything I realize one second too late to stop Snail Bob that I forgot to collect the stars in my haste. So I had to do it all over again and again and again and again and again. Also careful not to hit the button for the mirror pillar at the end after defeating the mummy snail it will block your way if you're not past it and you'll have to start over luckily this is an easy level.
As much as I love this game series I'm rather disappointed at how it works with my shockwave, it crashed twice trying to play this game, caused a major lag or just caused it to be slow where I could hear the typing of the text but the screen would freeze or I'd switch to the next part before the text could finish. I had to watch a playthrough on youtube just to read everything I missed.
This reminds me of a game I play that changes the controls with every yearly update. It's as if it's saying "You know how you're now use to using X to attack and O to grapple? Now it's Square to attack, X to grapple, L1 to run, and etc." I hate it so much. Muscle memory does not allow for change!
I struggled through with the painfully slow pace and the inability to change the quality that might actually allow for me to speed things up. I've nicely played the game a second time when with the first I encountered a glitch towards the end where I'm heading to the kitchen but the screen won't switch to it so I'm repeatedly walking in the hall. But this is my last try, this time I have it all I've completed the quests and gave the bouncer the $100. He says I can go through then the dialog switches back to him telling me I need to be a VIP. I switched rooms and everything, went back to the dogs, no cash now I can't leave. This is the second time this game has screwed me over as I come to the last leg. I gave it a try but I have to rate this one low.
Level 9 of the Earth set was oddly the hardest one for me. I could have 3 balls burning and by adjusting the timing on one bomb without doing anything else results in everything changing, 3 balls in turns into only 1.
But oddly enough it wasn't frustrating trying to figure out exactly how to beat it. It was oddly easy figuring out the right times to set off the bombs on the Earth level for all of the rest.
I have to thank you for not doing a difficulty on the last level that was needlessly complicated by slapping together all of the elements and physics where we have to get the metal into the water and stop the wood from floating into the sky while getting it towards a small fire surrounded by water. I rather dislike it when puzzle games do that.
I agree that a sandbox mode would be great.
Sickopath333 said it perfectly. If it wasn't for the fact that I already had all of the pieces I would have killed the watcher. After the first boss was killed he should have popped up and put a stop to the bloodshed. And despite that he gives us that speech at the end.
I'm mostly pissed because I had to kill the owl. Of all of the bosses I liked it was the owl, there was something cute about it.
The morality part of the game doesn't really hit that hard since it's pretty much linear and you have no choice as to who you fight or kill giving they come attacking you and you have to just to advance.
That second box thing with the chain was needlessly difficult to hit. Only thing that I dislike about this is that once you die you lose record of the prisoners you've saved. I don't mind losing the points but why the prisoners?
I had fun with the little add ons. Used the coin in one of the houses with the slots, then "Teeth" appeared telling me 'She lied and you know'. That earned a O_o moment from me. Then playing around with the flute around the stone statues, loved the voices singing along (or was that a coincidence?). But the thing that got to me and actually scared me was after that, I stepped away to grab my remote and heard a voice. Sadly I couldn't hear it well enough does anyone know what it said?
I've been getting a weird glitch lately. After I play a few levels in normal it suddenly starts over as if I've lost and after a while of playing following that start over I can no longer lay down any bombs.
Finally got it to work although the rain effects did slow me down more than with the other chapters. But what's been said about the game has been said. All I can add after staring at the last image is: nice Jack has both a PSone and a Gamecube.
Perhaps something is wrong on my end but after playing the first three levels rather easily I got to the 4th and everything slowed down to a crawl thanks to the rain effects. I even closed and restarted still the same slow sluggishness and no option that I can find to change the quality of the game. This made blowing the rings impossible since the timing was off and those timed courses were lost while struggling to get the O to shoot so I couldn't finish which is sad. Also sometimes she was get stuck running in one direction no matter if I was telling her to run in the opposite. Again maybe it's me.
I'm Ultra Man, the raging killer, destined to help all and pillage everything. I'll take that over Jesus assassin. Either I was the assassin of Jesus or I assassinate a lot of Latino men.
What she's saying: THE WHITE CUBE
You set the tea light on the table
its flicker a delicate tease of what you might see
the early shadows barely breathe in that intimacy
as you look, as you reach
recognition bursts!
Its brightness the brightest sun reflected on fields of snow so in that moment the whole room explodes!
We start as a white cube
with a floor and walls
where we put up our ideas
and watch them hang
and then we take them down again.
In this space we speak of the color white
the color of all colors combined
the color of all of our options
the color of our connection that traverses space and time.
December in the north
the darkness lingers
so that even the shade of the moon seems bright.
You reach out and grab that light
the palpable tangible meaning of life.
Sorry I don't mean to spam, I pasted the wrong version of the poem and wish I could delete my last one. Please vote it down.
