Actually, I do have a question about the Kojima poster. I recall Angel-Corlux was trying to get things set up so the $100 to $175 backers could get it rolled/tubed instead of folded. There was supposed to be a further update on that but I don't immediately recall ever seeing one. Obviously for the $250+ folks, it'll be rolled along with the Amano art, but was anything ever finalized for those at lower tiers?

No, my sword isn't Soul Edge; its eyes aren't in its handle. It also won't shut up.

*cough* Sword Whip *cough* that's not a spear branac! Not what you said; you said that it wouldn't make sense for ANYTHING ELSE to break apart.
There's no I in team, but there are two in my handle. Also in "I'm right."

In other words...interested, yes, but able, not so much. Ah well, it was worth a shot. Guess I'll just get my stand-alone badge in the morning.
EDIT: I now have a badge and a full hotel room at the event. I'm still happy to try and coordinate a meetup if anyone wants to come to MAGFest, but your badge and accommodations are up to you now.

I and a few other members around here are known to frequent MAGFest, the Music and Gaming Festival, taking place in National Harbor, Maryland (just outside D.C.) the first weekend of the year. I was wondering if there was enough interest to pool for a group of discounted badges (eight or more) specifically for a bit of a Bloodstained meetup. Badges go on sale in less than 24 hours, but the cutoff for being entered into the hotel lottery is much later, so there's no extreme rush (plus anyone registered on a group pass gets their own spot in the lottery). Please contact me directly if you're interested.

And thus now we have Steve Blum commenting on a game with David Hayter in it. All we need now is a Kevin Conroy moment and we'll have peak growly VA.

Honestly, this is one of the best reasons for a Bloodstained sequel...Goofball!
And I guess the reaper and alt-faerie can come along as well.

I would also add that the Buer Familiar has an additional effect related to the bouncing you mentioned, Pure Miriam . You can jump-kick it. The familiar will also jump on its own to follow you, so you can conceivably get about double height of your double jump long before getting Invert and High Jump. There are a few spots I can't get to even with the Double Jump that bouncing off Buer has gotten me into. As such, I would call it a utility familiar rather than just "weird" and far more useful in early game. And now, the protestors.

<checks list> Pure Miriam , the lack of Goofball on this list is not shameless, it is shameFUL. I'm sure XombieMike would agree.

I take it tunes emanating from more Celestial sources are being discounted for obvious reasons?

I guess people have an aversion to characters with actual noses.
Akihiko Yoshida and Savin Yeatman-Eiffel both immediately come to mind.

Just a correction: Steam takes 30%, not 40%. I'm not sure of how much GOG takes for every sale, but I imagine it's 30% as well.
GOG is indeed also 30%. I believe Humble is slightly lower and itch.io is significantly lower (even slightly lower than Epic).

Had a repeat of the achievement failure on GOG last night, this time for breaking down ten items. This time, however, I noticed it quickly and had prepared in advance - restored the save from when I headed back to Arvantville, bought the necessary Alkahest, and performed the appropriate number of breakdowns again, triggering the achievement this time (though it was different items that were broken down between the two attempts).
Not sure what's causing the occasional failure and I don't think I have enough info to make a formal submission this time. I'll keep an eye out for any further issues.

This is a valid thread however, because it is a reaction from not having an option to say that the aren't willing to pay for cosmetic DLC. For that reason I'm interested in this thread.
So what you're saying is...
...c'mon, someone had to do it!

I tend to think the soundtrack is incomplete at the moment anyway since we only have the Japanese lyrics for the "Theme of Bloodstained Vocal Version" and not the English version as well as other missing tracks that have been mentioned elsewhere. I actually asked GOG to clear up whether they might have the English language version for their copy (as I expected, their copy is also Japanese).

We'll just have to make a second game with an even bigger castle so there's no debate. Exactly.

The Tourniquet achievement didn't trigger properly. Unfortunately, I didn't notice until after I'd saved after taking out the "netherdrake" (and Dragonslayer triggered properly). No ID since I'm on GOG and despite saying it would take save files, the report page rejected my attempts to upload it.

-Wait, will 3DS games come to Switch Lite?
Only if the cartridge slot is redesigned relative to the basic Switch. Switch carts are a LOT smaller than 3DS ones (plus DS ones fit into anything designed to accept 3DS carts, so that level of reverse emulation may be prohibitive).
In other words, virtually certainly not (save jailbreak homebrew emulation).
