#

will it release on gog too?

trail bolt
#

yeah

manic minnow
#

sweet, looking forward to it

#

didnt see a specific date anywhere but guess i'll have to be patient

#

and play through q2 ANOTHER time i guess

crystal shuttle
#

just beat BL
holy fuck that final boss was sick

#

that was hella enjoyable, worth the wait

solemn hollow
crystal shuttle
#

i did

#

😎

#

warrior mode + evil is the real way to play AE

#

(imo)

#

proof

trail bolt
#

||yeah i have no idea where andrew is||

crystal shuttle
#

now, i DID get my teeth kicked in quite a bit

#

but i enjoyed all of it

granite idol
#

Great dlc all around, despite me still having to find some secrets

crystal shuttle
#

it's time for the most important part

#

reading the codex

#

sweet sweet lore

#

um EXCUSE ME that is NOT capitalised :/

#

prequel to the prequel?

#

(hehe)

granite idol
#

||Is the secret level also in the menu selection or is it actually in some level?||

trail bolt
#

it's not in the level select

you can only get there through the entrance

granite idol
#

no no I get that

#

I mean like

#

||is it at the difficulty selection or is it a part of some level||

trail bolt
#

part of some level

granite idol
#

Nice.

#

more reason to replay on evil

dark granite
#

easiest strat for the "hard" phase lmao

crystal shuttle
#

pretty much what i did through trial and error eventually

#

this phase reminded me of fighting the solar episode boss

#

just baiting him into the attack by moving in a pattern

#

cant figure out the secret inside the secret level

#

shid........

#

||noclipped back to the start of the secret level after encountering the boss just to see what it would look like||

#

beautiful.......

#

I couldn't find the secret thingy anywhere

#

But I did find the dumbass.

orchid sluice
#

Secret level reminded me a bit of Cainhurst

#

art design wise

crystal shuttle
#

anyone find the secret inside of it?

#

im strugglin

orchid sluice
#

||look behind you on the rocks at the beginning||

fickle bluff
#

The interiors of Cainhurst were cool but my god the exteriors were bland.

crystal shuttle
#

ty

orchid sluice
#

Castles covered in snow just work

fickle bluff
#

Not true. Most of Skyrim had terrible castle architecture.

orchid sluice
#

Also like the art design on those 🧍

#

Then again I haven't played since 2013 so it's been awhile

#

looking back I remember the interiors being drab

willow garnet
#

holy fuck the scythe is so op

solemn hollow
#

i love the scythe

unique wren
#

I TRIED AEDAR and it tells me theres 2 enemies but it doesnt show me where they are

granite idol
#

the scythe and the fists feel straight up better than their originals

#

it feels so good to punch something and send it flying 10 feet away

willow garnet
#

It seems the fatal error crash happens only in the rtx verison

solemn hollow
#

yep

tardy cove
#

Ok, DLC finished, great job Leon & Simon, it was worth the wait

cunning dock
#

i did

tardy cove
#

That said, I don't recommend an Evil + Champion mode for your first playthrough

#

Maybe it's because I know where all the secrets in the base game, but in the DLC I've gotten my arse handed to me more times than I care to admit

solemn hollow
#

i had a shit ton of purple mana on me at all times

#

so i used void splitter on the shield guys and annoying encounters all the time

#

granted i was playing on hard

tardy cove
#

I love the soul mode for the scythe, you literally erase enemies from existence

solemn hollow
#

yeah

tardy cove
#

||I also like how the game immediately starts the base campaign after you finish the DLC and lets you have the new weapons in the main game||

granite idol
tardy cove
granite idol
solemn hollow
#

the scythe homes in on anything that's on your screen

#

granted it's range is more limited

#

but you don't have to find funny angles like you do with aethernum

granite idol
#

The axe did not give me the satisfaction of seeing my enemies fly away from me as did the fists.
Seratonin and dopamine straight to my brain.

#

Also I have to say I love the bosses. Actually felt like genuine challenges.

tardy cove
#

The axe does more damage and brings enemies to you, as fun as the fists are, in they are harder to use in Evil difficulty

solemn hollow
#

especially the final boss

granite idol
#

bro the final boss was so hype

solemn hollow
#

more or less

granite idol
#

best boss in the game

#

that was so good

solemn hollow
#

second only to ||the creature||

granite idol
solemn hollow
#

jsut gotta keep your eyes peeled open

granite idol
#

Yeah but I already spent 4 hours on the base 10 levels and now to go back looking for a secret

#

Not today

solemn hollow
#

the rest is up to you

cunning dock
#

what you're looking for is in ||the chamber||

trail bolt
#

oh

granite idol
#

The only "odd" thing about the DLC is how ||not black the black labyrinth is||

tardy cove

#

||happy hunting|| :)

#

solemn hollow
#

you doing a fists only run rudi?

tardy cove
#

The good ol' Hexen 2 fist bump

fringe flint
#

is there a bug in Level 2 of the DLC?

#

I'm stuck with nowhere to go, and a big hole in the floor covered by an invisible barrier

tardy cove
#

I haven't encountered any issues

#

You mean the hole you create after punching the statue?

fringe flint
#

yes

tardy cove
#

Yeah, you should be able to drop down

tardy cove
crystal spruce
#

frick

fringe flint
#

yeah definitely something wrong with that level, it doesn't play well with saves

granite idol
#

Well that was a very weird secret level

trail bolt

solemn hollow

trail bolt
#

"no thanks i've already got one"

vapid echo
#

||hey i need some help with the part in the chamber where the gold key button rises in front of you ive been looking for way too long for how to get up there and push it||

vapid echo
#

huh

#

but where ion get it

solemn hollow
#

water

vapid echo
#

theres nothing but the bottom

solemn hollow
#

a door is supposed to open up

#

below the waterline

#

just look around, you'll find it

vapid echo
#

i dont see anything opening up but alright ill look around

solemn hollow
#

i had the same problem as you

vapid echo
#

is it this one?

#

cuz it doesnt open up

#

oh my god i just found a way around

#

thank you for your time ☠️

crystal shuttle
#

i got lost in the same place

#

i thought the thing at the end was just like a little lookout point and didnt see ur supposed to go up

#

wandered around the level for quite a bit

torpid stratus
#

#

||the spikey wall in the second trial kills you instantly if you should die fighting the enemies and click load latest save. you spawn into the spike wall it seems. after that my game just froze||

barren aurora
#

Expansion is too pretty to be real game

mental nimbus
#

I have no idea to how to avoid the attacks

#

this fight is super tough

#

I'm at ||this phase and it's really hard to avoid and attack at the same time||

solemn hollow
mental nimbus
#

finally

#

holy shit ||the game transitions to the base game right when you finish the black labyrinth||

#

that's neat

#

||this means that poor champion doesn't take a break from the moment he starts the trial 😭 ||

trail bolt
#

he can rest in the gateway

cunning dock
trail bolt
#

yeah I got them already

cunning dock
#

trail bolt
#

#

Okay, so already, I have no clue how to reach hard. Can someone please dxplakn what to do?

willow garnet
#

Look behind you

jolly delta
#

Yeah, I see the ledge behind the hard portal, but can't jump up there.

solemn hollow
#

and look behind

jolly delta
#

Alright.

solemn hollow
#

interesting

#

the only one

jolly delta
#

So, look behind what exactly?

willow garnet
#

Behind you

jolly delta
#

Descriptive.

#

All I'm seeing are walls.

solemn hollow
#

if you go down a bit, there's another ledge that's there for you to get to the other one

jolly delta
#

Okay, I think I understand what you mean.

#

CHRIST THAT IS DARK/OBSCURE AS HELL.

#

Thanks for the help though, seriously.

#

Well, guess it fits the Quake 1 inspirations just fine.

willow garnet
#

🎊

fringe flint
#

man, I gotta say. As brilliant as the BL DLC is in many ways, I'm not enjoying it as much as the AE base game. Hard to keep playing, actually. It's the lack of ammo. I don't like being out of ammo all the time in a game like this. In a game like this I want to be able to let 'er rip.

solemn hollow
solemn hollow
fringe flint
#

yeah

#

down to the fists regularly

#

it's just... not fun for me

proper oxide
#

what how

#

which difficulty are you playing on?

fringe flint
#

Hard

proper oxide
#

oh ok

#

i played through it on normal

#

had plenty of ammo

solemn hollow
#

idk

#

i was mostly fine on ammo throughout my hourney on hard

fringe flint
#

I mean, I could conserve ammo and be really careful, but I just don't like that

solemn hollow
#

was missing either green or blue, but not for long

#

even had a fuckton of purple mana

#

so much that i splittered every shielded asshole i encountered

fringe flint
#

I will try and push through some more

#

how many levels in the DLC?

solemn hollow
#

show via screenshot

fringe flint
#

2 or 3

#

i haven't had much time to play

solemn hollow
#

screenshot please

fringe flint
#

i don't have one

solemn hollow
#

you can enter your latest save, make a screenshot and post it here

#

doesn't take up much time

fringe flint
#

thats like, way more effort, you'll just have to take my word for it

jolly delta
#

Loving it already.

jolly delta
#

Probably gonna see if I can't record a playthrough for it and the base game for my channel once I beat the DLC.

rancid remnant
#

it is so intense

#

my god, calm down evil dificulty

#

the wind enemies are annoying

unique wren
#

No

#

They're good because they actually dodge your attacks

fringe flint

wow this level with the giant swords is a banger

what a beaut

Oh shut this is amid

man that axe fight is brutal

#

good shit tho

trail bolt
#

one of my favorite final bosses of all time

barren aurora
#

I have no idea how to fight the final boss. I just use memed it with bubble wand and I just barely survived.

signal quartz
#

Leoooooooooooon, I finished the first level on hard difficulty last night, 2 secrets were missing!

willow garnet
#

Find them!

hot crane
#

and thus completes my first playthrough of The Black Labyrinth. it was CRUEL, it was PAINFUL, and the final boss? PURE TORTURE. but devil i love the build-up to it, the introduction and the battle were so epic i wish i could see it again, except without me playing. in short: that was awesome, i recommend everyone.

mental nimbus
#

wait what's the collector and hardcore awards

willow garnet
#

Collector is all secrets?

mental nimbus
#

pretty sure the secrets one is explorer

carmine yacht
#

all ammo/health pickups then?

hot crane
mental nimbus
#

oh I've never seen the collector one before

#

never got one in a playthrough

hot crane

#

For some reason my fps is hitting like 20 when I start the black labyrinth, anyone know why that may be

unique wren
#

@wheat yarrow sorry for the ping but i MUST know, is the fireblu music at dooms gate + dark halls + sign of evil?

civic ocean
wheat yarrow
#

NO, it's a discount homage to those songs though

#

in a fun cheeky way

unique wren
unique wren
#

Thanks for the quick reply
I love you

civic ocean
#

i thought one was intermission from doom

#

not sign of evil

brittle hill
#

I don't know why its running poorly like Im hitting 20 fps for some reason

civic ocean
#

its a legendary soul for better fisting (you still wont get more than 2 punches in at once)

brittle hill
#

I opened up hyper demon to compare my frames and its something to do with amid evil, idk what is doing it

unique wren
#

i just found it lol

civic ocean
#

ruditracing

wheat yarrow
#

you right

#

Sorry, very tired. Just got back from metal show

brittle hill
civic ocean
brittle hill
#

and even if I did it would not be this low

unique wren
brittle hill
#

RE4 was able to hit 60s native ray traced when I accidentally turned it on so idk why Im getting like less then 30fps on amid evil

wheat yarrow
#

DLSS will sometimes be off by default

unique wren
#

Because amid evil actually looks good and has projectiles

wheat yarrow
#

worth checking video to see if it turned it off for ya

brittle hill
#

whats the reccomended specs for epic quality no RT?

#

I have a 3070 rn and I have it set to epic rn and none of the RT is turned on

unique wren
#

I also have a 3070 and don't ever really dip below 200fps

brittle hill
#

yeah which is why Im surprised

#

like Im not opening it up in RTX 12 so it can't be toggled

wheat yarrow
#

I have a 3080 with no issues either

#

oh... I am not 100% sure but doesn't it like NEED to be opened in DX12 to actually work?

brittle hill
#

like just to play the game itself?

#

Like i'm just trying to play with no RT with just epic settings

wheat yarrow
#

ah, ok I misread that

#

so with no RT at all you get super low frames

brittle hill
#

yeah

#

rn its like hovering around 21-22

wheat yarrow
#

weird, does task manager show anything super hungry?

brittle hill
#

does not look like it

wheat yarrow
#

you don't have anything on like re-shade by chance?

brittle hill
#

where would that be in the options?

wheat yarrow
#

nah you prob don't it's an Nvidia software thing

brittle hill
#

Yeah I never heard of it so I don't think I do?

wheat yarrow
#

does performance boost when you turn on vsync?

brittle hill
#

nope

#

no change at all

#

wait is, rn for memory in task manager its taking up about 2968 MB

#

is that high for amid evil? I haven't checked memory usage for games much so I wouldn't honestly know

wheat yarrow
#

I am not completely sure, It sounds like it could be.

#

Keep in mind, I am just the audio/music guy

#

but, could you try two things?

brittle hill
#

oh yeah fair enough, appreciate the help anyway. Also yeah sure what things

wheat yarrow
#

try verifying Amid Evil through steam

brittle hill
#

Oh yeah I tried that, will try it again anyway rn just to double check

wheat yarrow
#

if that doesn't work, of course check to make sure you are up to date on your GPU drivers

#

and if that doesn't work one last thing I can at least maybe help with is... hang tight

#

try disabling steam overlay

#

It has been known to really just tank performance in random games at random times. Super strange but it happens.

#

it's really weird because it's not even completely consistent from machine to machine

orchid sluice
#

steam overlay messed up my playthrough of Dishonored 2 for a bit until I disabled it, heard it happening to other friends for different games as well

#

btw I've been playing ROTT 2013 and have been loving the music, nice work

wheat yarrow
#

Yea it tanked a run I had in Doom Eternal and 2016 with it

brittle hill
wheat yarrow
#

It happens

#

My workstation

#

special tv microwave computer

brittle hill
#

Thankfully it seems to just be an unplugged wire, genuinely was worried my 3070 got fried and then saw something unplugged when I opened it immediately

#

Again thanks for the help, looking forward to hearing some of your music when I play heh_heh

wheat yarrow
#

No prob! Glad ya got it solved

Anyone found all the secrets in Black Labyrinth yet? I'm still working on finding all of them, so my progress is kinda slow.

I can spend literal days in a level just trying to find secrets.

back to 100% 💪

silent glen
#

Ok so do we all agree the fists are better than the axe?

#

For most of amid evil i didnt use the axe, not because i could just use a different weapon but because i felt it was kinda bad, pretty slow even with the whole pulling enemis thing, in black labyrinty i am constantly switching to gauntlets

elder cypress
#

Haven't gotten them yet, you have to pick them up right?

solemn hollow
#

you start with them

elder cypress
#

hot crane
# silent glen For most of amid evil i didnt use the axe, not because i could just use a differ...

i would kindly disagree because fists and the Axe have different approaches - Gauntlets are fast and lock on enemies, but deal less damage, while the Axe is slower, but it damages several enemies in front of it, pulls them and stuns for a second and some foes have a weakness against it, making it useful even in the final episode.
i'd say fists feel better to use, but not are, and i think i can see why for a couple of reasons:

  • sound design
  • speed
  • scarce ammo for all weapons
    overall, both are great and fit well with their intended parts of the game
mental nimbus
#

the axe stays useful through the whole game, I love using it almost every time

#

one of the few fps melee weapons that are actually useful lol

#

it feels like it mocks quake's axe

silent glen
#

Fist betta tho

#

Is there a way to use fists in amid evil

mental nimbus
#

you mean like in the base game ?

silent glen
#

Yea

hot crane
silent glen
#

Ah

also configurable in the options

What a fucking evolution

I felt some bosses were pretty underwhelming, especially the first one

elder cypress
#

WHY HAVE THE OPTION TO CHOOSE THE DLC

silent glen
#

But this is so fucking good

elder cypress
#

IF THE DLC ISN'T GONNA WORK

#

Aaagh

silent glen
#

You need to press the quest button

elder cypress
#

I know

#

Someone already told me

#

I just had no idea

silent glen
#

Why wouls you press continue if you never played it

elder cypress
#

I dunno

#

I thought it worked that way

#

There was no other option

#

Pressing Quest made no sense to me

#

I'd already chosen the DLC at the start

#

So why would I choose it again

#

That makes no logical sense

silent glen
#

Yeah because you just chose what game to play ane then you entered said game's menu

verbal folio
#

STOOOOOP

elder cypress
#

Why do I have to go into a Quest menu to choose it again

silent glen
#

It does

#

Qhest

elder cypress
#

No

#

It doesn't

#

XD

silent glen
#

Quest = New Game

elder cypress
#

Yeah yeah

silent glen
#

Its just renamed

That isn't initially apparent to someone who played the game like 2 years ago

The comments in the guide I shared above says they have to be collected in one sitting.

i must say, ||final boss is just genius design. i was shocked when i saw boss weapons hanging on the wall, as if he's some sort of a collector. just, wow.||
you guys rock and i hope more stuff will come connected to this game, this is just wild.

night ginkgo
#

we actually were working on another game entierly but stopped to make BL

#

so we'll get back to that

ebon crow
#

can i cheat the weapons from the expansion and play the base game with them?

hot crane
ebon crow
#

aww no other way?

how easy is it to get the fist weapons, are they early and then i could just jump into the old levels?

Amid Evil with RTX on crashes upon quitting Black Labyrinth DLC. Doesn’t happen on regular main campaign with RTX on though.

Fuck Dave For increasing the price making black Labyrinth unbuyable For me

I hope it increases to $20

You do realize several people spend time and effort to make this stuff yeah?

am i right to presume to devs prefer the looks of DLSS off vs on? what about AA?

just wait until it goes on sale

fists based

axe not

I just wanna point out, based on the dlc intro speech

#

the champion is literally doom guy but his personality is literally textbook hero guy

#

"evil bad good better"

#

I love it.

I mean the villain is textbook simple so nothing wrong with the hero being so

mental nimbus
#

so, how hard is BL on evil ?

elder cypress
#

Is it like a hidden difficulty?

willow garnet
#

yes

solemn hollow
orchid sluice
#

It's fair. Harder than base game but I thought it was worth.

elder cypress
#

I'm playing on Hard

mental nimbus
elder cypress
#

Prob would've found it on my own

orchid sluice
#

I'd go for whatever you find most comfortable. BL on harder difficulties does a good job of making you swap between weapons to conserve mana

elder cypress
#

I usually start on the highest difficulty and go down if it's too frustrating

mental nimbus
#

guess I'm gonna replay BL on evil now

elder cypress
#

Should I do Evil difficulty on my first playthrough or Hard?

orchid sluice
#

I'd go Evil first then go down like you said if it's not fun for you

granite idol
#

But that's just me, I prefer a nice relaxing first run where i can still be challenged but appreciate the new stuff

#

instead of 100% immediately focusing on survival

elder cypress
#

I'm just a 35 year old milf who cut my teeth on Quake and Doom when I was a teen.

#

So yeah

willow garnet
#

hard

mental nimbus
#

if you like challenges, sure

elder cypress
#

I do enjoy a nice hard challenge.

granite idol
#

Well, if you wanna immediately go destroy yourself and your enemies, go evil sure.
If you want your first run to be still hard, but more appreciative of the new content, evil

mental nimbus
#

I'd play on hard first but you can play it on evil if you wish to

elder cypress
#

I'll go with Hard first then

#

Hmm...

#

Fuck it

EVIL

So it has been written

oh I'm already getting my ass beaten by the tainted warriors

#

they're tougher

granite idol
#

they just like swinging their balls around

#

that actually sounded so wrong

#

too late, no regrets

mental nimbus
#

I forgot some enemies are tougher on evil and now it takes 3 punches to kill them

unique wren
mental nimbus
#

I also have to be more careful at punching them because they're apparently not stunned by the punches (?)

#

if I keep punching repeatedly they'll still hurt me before dying

it worked for me

Died a few times but it's just a matter of predicting where enemies spawn.

I've died before because I didn't know the enemies could still hit me while punching them

I just punch too much

and also run low on green mana

Okay, I need to ask; does anyone else have this REALLY FUCKING ANNOYING PROBLEM while playing where you click fire... and the weapons just don't fucking fire? Topped off by the mouse cursor constantly flickering at the edge of the screen? I use an Acer nitro 5 laptop and I frequently have to left click at times to get my weapons working.

jolly delta
#

Which is really goddamn annoying in the heat of battle or when trying to get a chain lightning overkill.

jolly delta
#

Please, is there ANY resolution to this goddamn problem or are we just cursed?

yeah we'll hotfix it probably tomorrow or next day

there's a few other bugs like that which I thought were fixed but evidently got necromanced somehow

Also, semi related - I'm pulling my hair out, for the life of me I can't find 3 secrets in that level, lol

But that's a "me" problem

DA BIG PIXELZ

It's so good

there are 2 left in thunder castle

if you look up in the sky at dark coast you're actually in a giant cave that looks out into the sea

jolly olive
#

does using cheat codes disable achievements?

#

Cuz I nuked my saves and the game didn't save and i do NOT want to do the wall again

dusk spear
#

Man. Brain not worky, sometimes. I explored all the rocks and crevaces on the right side ... don't know why I ignored the left, lol.

jolly olive
#

oh thank god

night ginkgo
#

you nuked your saves?

jolly olive
#

yeah cuz I had too many but I didn't make a new one properly so I lost all my progress

#

i was right at the end of the wall

night ginkgo
#

ah gutted

#

well yeah you can use the level select cheat

dusk spear
#

Also ... related to that level: is ||The Creature|| a reference to something? And is it supposed to do almost no damage, even on Evil difficulty?

jolly olive
#

i was afraid I was gonna have to do that whole level again

night ginkgo
torn sail
#

The cold fire should be in level select I must play the level over and over again

night ginkgo
#

and it's supposed to be annoying more than anything

torn sail

I though I heard into Sandy's city

I got that with the color pallette and music, but couldn't figure out the guy himself, lol.

For real. It's my favorite NB game. And I REALLY love all the NB games a lot.

Is it just me or does the Azure Orb feel...different

not complaining, just feels different in gameplay

it could be totally placebo

probably that yeah lmao

either way the atmosphere and music...very gud

and gauntlets rock

coming from the makers with melee with pull, melee with push!

combine the two later for even more fun

hey so i need some help on a certain boss

that was...an experience hard to describe

i beat it, but i rushed it with void splitter

btw ty leon n zigray

that will be very useful in helping me master the art of not-dying-to-chip-damage

#

oh yeah also black labyrinth is kickass

#

i got lost in the fun and ended up playing for way too long

jolly delta
#

My god... that final boss was ALL KINDS of kickass! O_O

#

So much so, and with how much it makes the axe feel freaking EARNED, makes me want to put that bad boy to good use in the main campaign now.

mental nimbus
trail bolt
#

the evil wishes it's boss fight was as badass

mental nimbus
#

I mean, I did like evil's fight

#

||but the axe's fight was nicer||

it's fine

but ||the axe was so much cooler||

#

yeah

mental nimbus
#

he broke

#

at least I can cheese him now

#

wait I explored the whole fucking map

#

Aeradar time

mental nimbus

alright they are spawned in the map

#

And man, there's just something so appealing to my monkey gamer brain seeing the axed just floating there, rotating and ripe for the picking in true video game fashion.

mental nimbus
jolly delta
#

In any case, I'm quickly gaining a newfound enjoyment/appreciation for Amid Wvil now that I can finally freaking reliably attack without having to mash my left mouse button.

mental nimbus
#

took me so long and they were just in the corners of the arena 💀

mental nimbus
#

so uh, I was at low health and tried using the powered up voidsplitter

#

but I guess nothing happened and I saw a no texture like cube (?) on my face

#

couldn't record it but that was really weird

#

it was like a checkered cube spawned right on my face, idk

#

then it disappeared and I died lol

#

ok yeah I can't replicate it

#

so idk what really happened and how

viscid lotus
#

I heard you can blow up the earth

willow garnet
#

Yes

mental nimbus
#

yes you can

mental nimbus
#

is this a hint for a secret or it's just the blue "window" to progress normally

mental nimbus
#

oh wait yeah I haven't noticed it's a puzzle

#

I just punched everything in the first playthrough

night ginkgo
#

it used to be much harder

#

but we nerfed it

#

you had to time the punches exactly right

mental nimbus
#

also there are some times I use the voidsplitter on enemy hordes but some that are supposed to die with a single hit survive the first hit sometimes

#

is it supposed to work like that ?

#

and does the voidsplliter have a max of enemies hit like 10 or more ?

unique wren
#

I don't believe there's a max

#

I've done some preposterous things with it

civic ocean
#

æ

mental nimbus
#

a level on evil has never beaten my ass so hard like the hole

#

that one part in the water is giving me some ptsd

#

the knights of the labyrinth somehow manage to block the voidsplitter attacks

#

I can't kill them except with the celestial claw splash damage

night ginkgo
#

they'll tank a hit from it sometimes on Evil difficulty

mental nimbus
#

usually at long range as I have noticed

#

they still die to 1 hit at point blank

solemn hollow
#

I think that also happened to me on hard, but idk, maybe I've missed or was too far

low bobcat

I'll try it again alter

#

later*

#

idk what I did wrong tho

night ginkgo
#

yeah idk what's up with that

#

sometimes I've restarted steam and the achievement magically unlocks

mental nimbus
#

I've seen people posting that it has to be in one sitting and that's what I did, started playing from the first level until I got andrew prism in the chamber

#

lemme try restarting steam to see if I'll unlock it

#

nope, didn't work

#

I'll try to get it later then
