Buenas. Sigo desaparecido con este calor, y bueno, ya que estoy vengo a compartir en lo que dedico el tiempo libre (es un ladrooon🎶).

Pues llevo una semanita que empezamos un "Souls-Like" mi pareja y yo, para ir jugando en duo, y probar un juego del estilo por primera vez, y ese juego es #WolongFallenDynasty

La verdad es que el principio hasta que te pasas el primer jefe fue duro, pero ahora nos hemos acostumbrado y se puede pasar bien. Incluso puede que nos hayamos acostumbrado demasiado. Quizá no sea tan difícil como un Souls, pero creo que para iniciarse en estos juegos y que te pique el gusanillo, no está mal.

Además tiene un personalizados de personajes que me gusta mucho, la verdad. Déjame personalizar a mi personaje y para mí ya es GOTY.

En definitiva, si no estoy trabajando o muriendo de calor, estoy con este jueguecillo, que está muy chulo. Y ahora os dejo unas capturas que hice con el modo foto de mi personaje 😋

Eine neue IP, das ist ja immer so eine Sache. Viel Aufwand für die Macher, aber ob am Ende die Zahlen stimmen, das weiß man nie ganz sicher. Bereits der Geschäftsbericht von Koei Tecmo hatte diesbezüglich zu #WoLongFallenDynasty Entwarnung gegeben. https://jpgames.de/2023/04/koei-tecmo-nennt-verkaufszahlen-zu-wo-long-fallen-dynasty-und-ist-zufrieden/

Oh yeah, I finished #WoLongFallenDynasty on Friday last week (just got lost cause I had to go away for the weekend).

It is actually an amazing game, really has been one of the few games recently to get me really energised, really excited to play it again. It's well worth having a playthrough.

I know it's disappointed some #Nioh fans, but think of it as an amazing onboarding game, as well as a lovely twist on the old formula. It doesn't need to be Nioh 3, it's good as its own thing.

#WoLong

Okay, so the last mission of Part 6 of #WoLong goes super anime when you beat the second of two bosses back to back (there is a checkpoint between them). Kind of cool.

Was also interesting to see the #Xbox (what I'm playing on, leave me be) achievement stats for the bosses. The final fight with Lu Bu had a clear rate of 7.28%, the following boss 6.71%, and then the two bosses of this episode 6.17 and 6.10% People are committed to finishing ifthey get this far, it seems.

#WoLongFallenDynasty

So, interesting thing, if you die as part of a trade with a flag defending boss in #WoLong, it still counts. The flag was unlocked and I immediately got credit for 'avenging' myself on respawn at the checkpoint.

I felt like a right idiot for dying there being too aggressive, but I suppose it paid off? He didn't respawn and I did, so a win for me I guess.

Ok, so I initially got very concerned that #WoLong had an Orstein and Smough boss fight like in #DarkSouls, but then they melted. Bit nasty initially, but parry through the big hammer guys attacks, get one critical deflect and hit on him, and he goes below half health and can easily be finished off, making it just a very easy fight.

I don't know if my damage is just too high, I've been doing all the side missions, and nearly maxed gear, but that was too easy.

One of our buddies turned bad after we find out we were fighting/killing our secret buddy.

We are now down two buddies.

This is why we have the buddy system, guys, people need to pair up or this stuff will keep happening.

Another boss down in #WoLong, this time a really cool just normal duel with another warrior. Not a huge number of those boss fights, compared to big demons, but it's good to have in the mix. Plus all the crazy lightning. Good fun.

#WoLongFallenDynasty

Will say, I do like the boss designs in #WoLong, they are varied enough to be interesting. This sort of phoenix-angel-grim reaper one is a really cool looking boss (and was fun to fight, even if I beat him first try), and they do manage to contrast them enough from one another that you can largely remember them (I thin Taotie is the weakest for that, being an amalgamation of body parts, but otherwise they are all pretty different).

So far, superb game.

#WoLongFallenDynasty #RPG #Xbox #gaming

Episode Four complete, and it's starting to ramp up quite nicely. Bunch of optional battlefield unlocked with its completion, which were quite fun to run through, including duels with two of your allies which are nice wee boss fights. NPC Invaders seem to be getting stronger (btw, you can toggle on and off player invasions in your settings really easily, if you don't know). It's going well, I'm liking it.

#WoLong #WoLongFallenDynasty #gaming #rpg #xbox

Really is a good wee boss.

Was doing really well until those two failed Rock Spikes setting me up to nearly being killed. But it worked. Rock Spike is just way too good for melting posture bars. Though I should probably have used the dual halberds instead of the slashing spear to have been quicker (plus more earth magic damage due to embedding).

#WoLong #WoLongFallenDynasty #gaming #rpg #bossfight #xbox

We're getting there, we're getting there. Honestly, this level was a lot of fun, interesting premise unmooring boats to make paths, I enjoyed the different routes and how the flags were hidden, the two options to breach the city, each with a boss and squad to face, and the final boss was a fun one. Good level.

Ooh, got a notification when I rested at a Battle Flag in #WoLongFallenDynasty that 'Restocked from your stockpile', presumably my arrows, so it seems that QOL issue was fixed in the latest patch, you auto-restock at your checkpoints now.

Still autoscrolls through the documents, annoyingly. Hopefully they improve that eventually, since flicking back and forth onto the page to reset the scroll is arse for reading them.

Anyway, that's another boss dead, Taotie, which was... one of the weirder ones, alongside Zhang Rang.

Weirder than that one though. It makes climbable objects so you can jump onto its main body (didn't use them for first phase, just ankle biting for that) and then it becomes this big centipede thing that I never deflect a red attack of and mostly just out healed with Dragon's Cure Powder while spamming Rock Spike to try & max damage.

And it somehow worked?

#WoLong #WoLongFallenDynasty #gaming

This dragon just being... there as I pop up a ladder just to find him sitting there, watching, was menacing as shit.

And then he makes you solve a maze puzzle while raining lightning down on you, real casual like, just to tell you he doesn't care for your presence.

#WoLong #WoLongFallenDynasty #Xbox #gaming #rpg #dragon

One of the things I do like with #WoLong is that you and the enemies are affected by the same rules, they'll get affected by fire the same way you do, with the effect ticking up and your health ticking down, something you can help along with your own spells.

In all, the whole thing comes together pretty well in the gameplay, I have very little complaints about the game from the minute to minute play, it's brilliant. Even while it has issues with QOL and menu's, sadly.

#WoLongFallenDynasty

Beat Lu Bu.

I was struggling with my previous build, so googled around for advice, and found this video - https://youtu.be/6P-Rc-9JJWA - which gave a really good set up for it using earth wizardry. It also points out a way to farm (pretty tediously) the heal over time item, Dragon's Cure Powder, which is really helpful for attrition. There is a lot on embedding armour, which tbh you can frankly skip, but it's a useful base idea for tackling him.

#WoLong #WoLongFallenDynasty #gaming #rpg #xbox

I can already tell, Lu Bu is going to be an arse to beat. Feels like most of the bosses before now had decently short health bars that took a couple of critical strikes to chew through, but he only loses a smidge by the time you've got him off his horse, and it's not much better by the time he remounts.

Doesn't look like a fight you can eke out a win, more of a marathon. Will really need to get his unblockable attacks down pat for deflects.

#WoLong #WolongFallenDynasty

So, Baishe defeated so far, not terrible progression, I think.

She was a weird fight, it either all went well or it went really poorly, very quickly. But flame weapon wizardry was a massive boon to countering her poison (metal aspect?) spells.

I think part of the difficulty is chaining the quick succession of hit attacks when the parry button also acts as a dodge if you quickly double press it. So for flurry attacks, it's really easy to fuck up.
