Heyo 
ive been playing this basketball game and finished the first league
i sent hygwyn through the portal first, did i lose any important dialogue?

i rly liked him and wanted to keep him around but hes the only one i knew the background off
i was tempted to just throw at the end
Thats just an incentive to replay the game later 
And now, you can learn other character's backstory
Every action in this game more or less will cause you to view some dialogue at the cost of maybe some otherss
so I say don't worry about it too mucch
I just started Pyre! (I'm 4 hours in) Does anyone have any recommendations on what to focus on for vocations? My default in games is usually to hoard as much gold as I can get my hands on and hope for expensive items lol but idk if it's more worthwhile to level up characters as much as possible 
Invest in your people. Once you find out what kind of style you like, focus on improving those aspects. The game will not reward hoarding, so spend it/ use it if you got it!
Thanks!
Young Reader Playthrough, Day 14: More exposition today. Big Kid asked an excellent question about ||what happens if people are still in the Downside when the game ends. I told him he would just have wait and see.|| Big Kid put together a good group against The Withdrawn, but unfortunately we lost by 14 points trying to send ||Hedwyn home again.||
Hey there. Just wanted to hop in and say that I just listened to the Pyre soundtrack on Youtube and it's genuinely amazing. Convinced me to buy the game once I've got some money leftover, it's so gorgeous!!

💪

i love sir gilman SO much
How can you not like excitement incarnated
Anyone know what gilman says when he salutes?
i thought they all just said the triumvirate name?
No that’s after the end of the rite if you win
its definitly the same thing everytime, trying to figure it out right now
just from slowing it down kinda sounds like hes saying
"mo kramiga tu repastay"
Ok now any Sahrian translators?
Whatever he’s saying, I have it on good authority that it’s a… Stunning Claim 
from the pyre album
😮 jealous
i never realized how big Ti'zo horns are
he's like 50% horn
50% horn
50% fluff
100% reason to remember the name

Has anyone run into issues with Pyre freezing on the Steam Deck? Runs flawlessly when docked but I've been running into freezing after 5-10 minutes when in handheld. It's been tricky trying to trouble shoot haha.
i play pyre on the handheld and so far haven't had that issues. are you having any issues with other games on handheld or just pyre?

Sometimes I go on different social medias and see what people have to say about older things that I like, recently did it for pyre on twitter and saw this exchange
I'll be honest I don't understand spanish but I almost instantly understood what they were saying and it's absolutely me IRL
- Making the mistake of listening Pyre's OST
Then the one in the answers says
- Instant depression
- Lyrics starts *
Ngl pretty relatable
hello pyre fans
i am taking drawing requests of people's readers for funsies
oh wait i can't post here

Two ideas, the vagabond girl/mae giving a kiss to Almech in the cheek while he blushes or recreate the meme "It's f**king over" that have Soldier from TF2 but with Oralech
LMAO
maybe i WILL..
oh man i need some ramen
this one?
oh i cant post
forgot
sketchy link.. sorry
Don't worry but yes
||the second suggestion was because when I played the last rite I was between sending Ti'zo, me or Oralech, although at the end I let Oralech go I seriously take like half hour to decide if let him or let Ti'zo XD||
||can you imagine being oralech in that half hour though||
||nope at much I think he either give up quick or he would wait trying to not show that he extremely nervous that a bird or a random guy take his liberty that almost cost his life||
make manley suffer
Jodi and pam making up over moonshine
Vagabond girl caring for her little brother (the wagon) with Ti'zo
Iggy doing something stupid
heyyyyy, just completed the game, it was beautiful, still crying
Anybody got any Pyre wallpapers?
Ahh sorry! My bad, should have checked there first.
Speaking of, figured I get the arenas as well as the overmap areas. The arenas aren't as pretty in my opinion, but they are still nice to look at
https://imgur.com/a/hvPdG5K
Might want to pin these too for easier finding
heyo quick thing, does Pyre have crossplay?
I finished the game a while back and am thinking of sending it to a friend of mine for his ps4, the thing is I played it on steam so am wondering if we can play together or not with our versions
it only has local co-op, not online - the reason people are able to play it online is thanks to steam's remote play feature (and a software called parsec previously) so there is no crossplay since there is no online to begin with

@young folio I managed to get through the first round of dissidents OK, but the withdrawn are spanking me
loll give in to the losing streak #losergang
This is why I can't do genocide runs of undertale ;n;
its like, yeah, I kinda do want to explore the writing and further fleshing out of those characters but also please don't make me be mean to jodi ;n;
Essence is impossible in TN
when they do the forward formation
I was doing okay and then they moved forward and they immediately destroyed me
all of my hard PC cheevos were done with volfred(sp)
did you do the versus one?
against master computer?
that one is the biggest pain
I tried volfred cheese and I found all these videos and guides saying if you pick all demons for computer they will just walk into it and that definetly didn't work for me
found one where they recommended Tamitha and that one was the one that did it for me
she carried me hard
I think so
You can prob cheese a bunch of things with the stupid sap explosion glitch
Where the aoe keeps growing so you can banish from across your pyre lol
Yeah, the Sapling Nuke was never officially patched
We fixed it for competitive but you can definitely cheese the campaign with it easily ish
Just requires getting Volfred to a high enough level to use it
The funniest cheese is doing the 12 titan stars win in the ||rite that the other team doesnt show||
lol does that count?
Yup
wait don't you have to fight || Oralech || though? So isn't that the same
No, no,
Near the end there is a match where the ||other team outright doesnt show but you still play the match||
I just looked that up and I can't recall that happening at all
I dont know what determines if that happens
I think I got it once vs tempers?
But there is also times where the event doesnt happen
I'm not 100% sure on first playthrough but I think I had a normal match on TN, especially because at that point knew I didn't care if I lost or not
Just another part of the pyre™ experience
It took me like 3 playthroughs to have hedwyn and pamitha to talk to each other
https://steamcommunity.com/app/462770/discussions/0/1471967615881260078/ went to look this up and no one seems to know the actual condition, some say it's for specific teams but then others say they got those teams to show up so no idea
Don't try and take my essence
the part of me that wants to optimize wants to liberate Rhae next but the part of me that wants everyone to be happy doesn't.
It's always kinda bittersweet to let them go, and it hurts more sending the ones you like the most first, because you have to play without them longer
well and you also don't hear their stories as much
RIP to all those folks who sent Jodi first
while you were diligently sending the core trio to the surface I was warming her heart
jodi third is the best option
I'm a filthy Jodi first im sorry
knowing the descriptions of the exile i probably wouldnt even reach the downside
deciding whether or not to liberate *ae was probably the hardest decision I've ever had to make in a video game lol
I sent Jodi first on my first playthrough cause I didn't know I couldn't just pick anyone so it was either her or Pamitha or Mae and I wasn't about to send the other two
Hello. Would anyone know if i can find an image of pyre worldmap?
In pins: #pyre message
Not the whole map that i know of but this might be a start
Just realizing that *ae might be older than the blackwagon itself which is older than a lot of folks...
mae is definitely younger than the blackwagon, iirc she’s 19
She knows the date that it was built
She states that she’s three weeks older than it, and “teases” it for being younger than her
And we know for sure that she gets her info directly from the Scribes, so it’s legit

i do not blame her sandra did nothing wrong
it is done
the credits splash screens are so good
lol darren korb played Udmildhe
WOOO
Wait i thought that was logan
No wait logan plays betrturde right
Ye
||Pam's plea tore my heart to pieces

Hi! I've decided to check out the game to pass a little of the wait time until the Hades II release and man I was blown away 😍 From a narrative standpoint I even favor it slightly over Hades ❤️ Found family stories done right are so incredibly emotional, and pyre does it in a truly exceptional way! It Is an interesting contrast to the latter game, too, where it is all about blood in a pretty literal sense
I would be interested in which team setups you used for the Titan Stars Master difficulty CPU archievement? 👀 A guide tells me to use the three demons because they're slow and have long respawn times, but I just get totally destroyed by that AI at each attempt 😂 (Especially Oralech, oof those killer masteries)
I did it with Demon opponents too, using Tamitha Sandra and the third one was I think Rukey
Harpy aura is OP af and Tamitha can trigger aura explosion after the dash
Sandra because of 2+ respawn time alright, but I can never move her out of the aura blast quick enough when i'm crontrolling sb else
Sandra I didn't use at all, you want her for the passives
I scored with Tamitha and Rukey pretty much
so she just guards? ok 👀
I already thought of using a counter protective demon or Wolfred / Manley to keep em away from me as a defense
I saw many guides using Volfred but I kept trying that and it didn't work for me
I have to practice the harpies more, they're about the only mask type i'm not good with... them and imps xD
Which achievements is that again?
honestly I would recommend trying to see what works for you and what doesn't and figure it out that way, when I played campaing I kept using Pamitha pretty much every much so I already had a good feel with harpies, both aura and W felt great for me
Master Conductor
in versus mode
slight problem with that: https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/516763813790482464/1098365459901972623/image.png
I honestly don't remember
also make sure you don't screw yourself over on the 6 titan stars, some of them are going to be very hard
I don't remember what I did for it it tbh
I saw recommended setup in guides but I then tweaked it a bit cause that one also didn't work for me completely
well yslach is a no-no anyways, and in this case any who bring the demons back quicker from respawn? Altough I might try these and disenable the ones that reduce my pyre health
I think I used sandalwood with a aura size amulet
I think you can't use amulets for the achiev, default amulet means amulets off
altough I haven't tried it with them on so maybe it works too
¯_(ツ)_/¯
does it count as default masteries still? Nothing would be more of a bummer of finally getting it but missing one setup detail, for the archievement not to trigger :0
I can't remember the full titan star setup but I know I took enemy quickness and presence boost cause harpies are immune during the aura dash
so that's two down already
don't take hope tho
This is my short tutorial video for Pyre's achievement 'Master Conductor' (Prevail against a Master CPU opponent with six or more Titan Stars active (Versus Mode with default Masteries, Talismans, Pyre Health).
This strategy is quick, easy, and is based on the following guide by Steam user 'nidone': http://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedet...
When I tried it I always got a quick orb grab with Tamitha but they literally got the jump on me and knocked me down, sometimes from two sides :0
oh thank you ❤️
With Tamitha you basically don't want to take the orb until at least two demons are gone
so go after them instead
oooh i see what i did wrong
really abuse the aura hard
you basically sacrifice Tamitha for clearing the way
clever
you don't even sacrifice her, she's immune during the aura dash and if you click again at the end the explosion takes nearby ones as well
so then you can just grab it and go
Ok this makes me want to try again later haha 😄
Yeah aura burst is ao useful lol
Also remember to fish for throws just to keep your 3 exiles on field
yeah that was my biggest problem, I sucked at throwing so if I lost Tamitha for a round it was rough
haha absolutely same
that's why I took Rukey cause I think he has the double jump so you can go over the demons if they don't knock you down
as the third one
I hate the little vulnerability window you need to load a throw, which could be a score if you just plunged in
ye
My latest playthrough I barely plunged lol
it's defenitely tempting
My favourite campaign setup in general is jodi-xae-rukey / gilman 😄
I am sure there's other strategies that would work for other people, like the Volfred one is mentioned everywhere but I tried like 20 times and had no progress with that one
one defender and two quick sprinters
Man but I would love to try a versus match where both opponents just have the demons. there be a lot of stompy 😂 And the resulting earthquake even shook the commonwealth... or so 🙈
they duke it out over who has the most magnificent horns 🥲
someone has a full list with all cut songs from the game?
I wanna make subtitled versions of all songs including cut and alternative versions 
Lyrics:
We come to a time, when once an age
The Eight Scribes gather before us
The stars have aligned that the lucky few
Might rise from the torment of Solis
The Rites begin anew
The mercy of our Scribes...
The fires are lit, the exiles lay their claim
Some shall prevail, some perish in the flame
By full moonlight, may we revoke our shame
For ...
Lyrics:
Banished from the wealth below, for what crime he could not say.
A wandering demon eased his burden, and once entwined their fates became.
They would fight to earn their freedom from the wastes and desert plains.

these are the few I found
I find it super interesting, that the beginning of the early version of Never to return sounds almost like a chant you would hear in a church? Given that someone once said that much more than a sport, the rites are more of a religious ceremony and I happen to very much agree with them 😄
It would be awesome if there were an acoustic version of that early stage / one that focuses more on the vocals and minimizes the background instruments. That's kind of what I picture travelling up from the shimmerpool sounds and feels like
omg I got the archievement!! 🎉 With an unusual team at last (can't upload a screenshot in this channel sadly)
(Volfred - Sandra - Bertrude)
As my opponents I just played arround a bit, chose lendel, gilman and sir deluge
the wyrms got quenched by the protective aura very often and I just used my old method of run and plunge with the other two 😄 basically I just had to blast Lendel out of the way and see that the wyrms were nowhere in sight before sprinting like hell xD odd method but it worked lol
NOW onto the much harder challenge: Tizo's scribe trial 😂
(I'm on a run today haha, unbelievable 🥲 ❤️ )
Explosion on being banished + return one ally on banishment a rival goes brrr
the trick was somehow to really to wait until they grabbed the orb, banish them with jumping on them? I almost used no implosions at all but just the lil jumps once I got through their defense. Still, pitting the lil guy against wildling runner types is madness (and this with one mastery equipped, pre first liberation rite because I wanted to send him off in first or second place. It was difficult as hell, still)
The most annoying trial for me is prob ruckey
Does anyone know if you can still get Sandra's good epilogue, without doing all of the trials before beaming the exile in question up? Or do have both conditions to be fulfilled (trials + exhausted dialogue?)
I cant play curs to save my life
For him you have to wait until the double jump mastery. then it becomes easy
lol same with me and harps
(and other trials it depends on what masteries i have)
Gilman is the easiest tho
Just copy deluge set up
For me the easiest was Xae's, also Jodi's. Hedwyn I also needed a couple tries, Gilman really depends on masteries (I like to play wyrms tho)
Pamitha's will be my absolute nightmare haha
Pam I just spammed the surs burst lol
Or more dashes per stamina bar and regain stamina on picking up orb talisman
I did most of them but not all if I remember it correctly in my first run
sadly I can't post screenies in this channel but that's ok
And I do -Ae trial as soon as I pick up her salute skill
You can send them on other discords/img hosting sites and copy the img link
There are embed perms
ah, ty!
yay it works! 😄
the german translation for nightwings is "night falcons", which Is pretty poetic 😄
yeah it was super close haha xD
Much more luck than skill to be honest
https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/423540667726168064/1098588126592634880/Screenshot_2023-04-20_142502.png lil sweetie scrimblo. You are hell to play but I still love you so much ;o;
I struggled more with the 10 hp achievement tbh lol
I used a lvl 1 cpu and it took so long
It just refused to walk
I'm still glad I left the true nightwings one for last
that is also the last i'll attempt
no I still have to play against a human but let's see whenever I'll get the chance to 🥲
You can just set the 2nd player yourself
Doesnt matter you actually cant control it
It won't let me because I have no controller to connect
It checks for 'valid player two' 😂
I can probably boot up the game real quick to do steam remote if you want
oh sure! if you would
I'm playing a bit of campaign, feel free to tell me when you want to
I can do it rn
press shift + tab to bring up the steam overlay and near the top there should be a icon with a controller that says "invite anyone to play"
ok
do I have to send you a friend request first?
I see where I can invite friends to play
ahhh I didn't see you dm'ed me. nice!
@toxic python many thanks for helping out!
Dont worry and sorry for making you play agaisnt respawning Oralech lol
No worries I loved it 😂
He is and will always be best boy. And hey I managed to score a couple times against OP McCoolhorns 😂
His long respawn time is such a hidden tear jerker btw if you translate it from a game mechanic
He literally just has 1 hope
||And if you win that very last rite you extinguish that only hope point he has left||
It‘s truly fridge brilliance and horror both
You can have him with negative hope too
Ooft nooo
I will personally ||mount a safety net beneath mount Alodiel|| I tell ya 😭
(It doesnt do anything)
Its still a funny thing tho
Equipping him with astral eye causes that
😂 🙈 Voice: Let the Rite commence!
Oralech: Looks at this Talisman
Oralech: looks at opposing team
||yeets off the Cliff without a comment||
Voice: „I did not mean banishment this literal people, it‘s supposed to be a triumvirate not a duo... whatever 😐“
I don't think I've actually had one playthrough with him ||yeeting himself||
Or maybe once? And I hated it so...
I was never happier about a timely spoiler in my life 😭
my first playthrough was him and volfred both in the commonwealth, which i liked :] i did see it in other playthroughs though
my first playthrough was with ||him chucking himself||, did not expect that
I think i've got volfred + oralech on commonwealth once
Took me lots of playthroughs cuz having Volfred available for liberation kinda hard
yeah i just did my best because i was really thinking about the plan and felt he would be important up there haha
i also recorded the outcome of manipulating oralech https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aQaLN5Ls0qc (sorry for how stuck it gets, it was on a not so good computer)
An option I legit will never pick
yeahh thats why i recorded it at the time
"take heed of the various obscenities your conscience is shouting at you right now"
Ugh
literally couldn't even finish that 😭 this poor sad angry man
One trick (made it fairly easy) is to give hin private lessons as many as possible 😄 and don‘t use other characters in rites who have higher levels so he can claim one of the top 3 slots (you can use max enlightened tho because they won’t change the order anyways)
Also the shocked look of the team as you ascend, the reader they trusted just revealed themselves as another Erisa and it hurts
Man I wonder if anyone ever played an evil!reader run to completion 😭
Hey guys can I ask something?
I have two archievements left, and one is the one with doing 40 pyre dmg with Jodariel
Does the salute skill work at all in the match where the opponent doesn't show up? I can get her damage only up to 30 but picked the right mastery
yeah it def shows up briefly when is proc, Joradiel also has a kind of aura next to her body
which is the they combination i can get it to trigger when throwing? or do I have to jump in?
even if i am charging at full i only get 30
weird
I know when i played with you the other day the skill procced properly with Oralech
are you cancelling the salute by passing the orb back and forth? if you do that and quickly score I've seen it not proc
I think i'm just being a noob here and don't know how to salute lol
controller right?
no pc mouse
default is T iirc
if you still have Pam with her salute skill or Ti'zo with the portal skill you can do it way easier
pam yes
cuz you dont run the risk of being banished mid salute
well i have no opponent rn anyways
does it have to be in a rite or can you just do practice vs sandra
i just blasted everyone out of the way and went for plunge without finesse haha
Gilman and ae are my fav prob
the demons salute is amazing
with Pam or Ti'zo is super fun
hehe
with pam you can do the salute in your pyre then swap with Pam
now you have a 40 dmg demon right in the enemy pyre
hah
or kamikaze tizo and same thing
(or you can play on hulk of ores)
I ironically was on hulk of ores right now
I could have done a couple more shenanigans haha
enjoy
anyways, finishing up my second run, give it a couple days break and then it's time for True Nightwing mode
I will so lose this but it's gonna be hella fun
oh man I might say Oralech is my blorbo. Has to be protected at all costs.
Demons are fun sometimes
on True nightwing I love that i can equip black claw on Jodi like 2 rites in lol
ahhhh Tariq's ballad ❤️ ;w;
are the scribe trials also so hellishly difficult?
or comes the difficulty just through mandatory titan stars?
https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/423540667726168064/1099457757016494140/Screenshot_2023-04-23_001143.png Oh sweetie ❤️ This run you will remain downside together with adoptive momma Jodi, as well as Ignarius and Almer 😊
Pamitha will also stay. I think I'm ok with that choice ❤️
Next run is going to be much more random tho 😂
if you mean the solo trials from Sandra then I didn't feel like they were more difficult than on normal
just the AI being on heightened basically
aah ok
omg (most of the cast tbh)
so true
😍 ❤️🔥
I have one more question to ask
why is the true nightwings mode now turned off for me, after finishing my 2nd run, after it previously was selectable. Did... it somehow turn off because I completed the game again? like an on-off switch?
true nightwings mode? is it just not available anymore?
It was selectable right after I finished my 1st playthrough. Now, it is not?
weird. does it still appear though
🤔
try verifying your files if you own the game through steam?
no. just easy, standard, hard (but hard is not it I know)
maybe I need to run through the ending again to get it turned on again lol xD
you could try, but verifying is probably faster
I mean, it's just losing the last match against oralech yadda yadda
true
I will try both so hopefully one of em works
ok so running through the ending again didn't work... huh
https://www.supergiantgames.com/contact/ you can report it here, though i think that bug fixes for pyre is not a priority rn :(
Supergiant Games is a small independent game development studio in San Francisco, known for its award-winning titles Hades, Pyre, Transistor, and Bastion.
according to this https://steamcommunity.com/app/462770/discussions/1/1480982338947072197/ you can launch the game with the /TitanModeUnlocked=true option to force unlock
Hey there. I deleted my first save after beating the game because I knew for a fact I would never use it again, and I don't like the clutter. I figured in a few months or so, I might go in on max difficulty and see how hard it is. Then, a bit later, True Nightwing came out. I was pumped and loaded the game to see that I had to complete the campa...

Oh that sounds promising, I will defenitely try that later ty ❤️
did you add the option through Steam launch options or through exe file?
I just tried it and it's working for me, I reset my savefile, checked that True Nightwing was locked, then added the /TitanModeUnlocked=true option in steam launch options and it was unlocked when creating new campaing
Steam Launch, but maybe I did it wrong
https://imgur.com/a/X8OVTQN this is what it looks like for me, the first option is just to stop the game from pausing during alt tab
Yup that’s where I entered it!
It just would not let me close the window afterwards, so maybe it did not accept the order?
I’ll have to try again if it works for others
@small compassanswering here
true nightwings doesn't have any story variation outside of just one comment by Ruckey about the titan stars showing up at the first rate
for volfred
if you tell him you are leaving then Hedwyn stands for you and asks Volfred to keep you as the reader
Thanks
pyre has a lot of story variation in itself, if you simply play differently - like losing every time, or picking different choices
Yeah i just feel like supergiant games have very repetitive combat
like after 3-4 liberation rites in pyre
i just lost all interest in the rites themselves
just wanted to finish the game
well if you play on true nightwings, losing (by standing still and waiting for the rite to end) is pretty easy and quick. :]
i did my all losses run on TN
it reveals a lot of the story of the characters you would have liberated and not have known otherwise
I feel like id be letting the team down though
Why would anyone want to join the night wings if all they ever do is lose
i dont know, i ran through the game about 6 times, it was one of the runs i did - i found it cool how much you find out by losing, rather than winning
i also like the gameplay though i found it fun
and very unique
it is very unique
i liked it
for the first 1-2 hours of gameplay
afterwards it just felt a chore
i think id prefer there to be no gameplay after the third liberation rite lol
just visual novel text
i only got a bit tired of it after like 15 hours straight of playing, but i got tired of the reading more than the gameplay and skimmed the book a bit more than read it
i think pyre being a pure vn would detract from it honestly
just add a skip option
so you can choose to play the rites out
or you can just skip them
Now that im done replaying transistor i gotta get back to finishing pyre lmfao oops!
this is why I am excited for true nightwing mode 😄
i dunno, i found a lot of depth in the rites, and enjoyed them the whole way through. love how close they get and how intense the rounds are later in the game
Trying to win the last rite has got me way too tense lol
||even if I still failed and most of the other playthroughs I just throw the match||
It's a totally different feeling to play against another human in versus mode, like wow
Didn't have that much fun in a long time 😄
Dunno if you've seen the links, but we have a community that plays some games together every week over steam remote play if you wanna join
I have seen and considered it! I might very well, if I have a less busy week ahead
many thanks ❤️
Yeah, there are people who have hundreds of hours in Pyre, mostly in Versus mode
The gameplay is pretty unique and sick
I still do not know how to play volfred 😔
sap goes kaboom
Though the +15 pyre clutch is worth having him tbh
Tempers are fun to play against
quick throwing volfred is also fun, or just plain having some way to bring him to the enemy pyre asap (see tizo or pamitha)
all the characters have a trial ye
his talisman is also really good
at max rank it doubles the blink distance
Gonna try that then
Damn
I have a feeling this is one of trhe last rites
hi oralech :(
what did the wagon do to deserve this
was gonna ask if it was that specific encounter lol
Yeah he also showed up in said wagon before
going against who at the lib rite?
Uhh
if you are in the wagon you can check volfred's planner
yeah
Volfred, bertrude, tizo, gilman, fae and pam
First three are all max with tizo second
though
aw man i dont have the volfred trial
wont comment on it cuz I wanna see your choices
check if you have the talisman already? maybe you already did the trial
I never knew the triggers for the trials tbh
Oh huh sandras team matches the next rite apparently
Never clocked that
Tbh my gut says fae :((
chastity lib rite effect is prob the one I dislike the most
is kinda... lame just like manley
I believe getting to enlightenment level 3 is the trigger for the trial
Except for rukey which is a tutorial
wait how does blink work bc its Not for me
is the dash
Yeah its not doinf anything
wait wut
idk ill rebind it to see
the only talismans I keep are Hedwyn, Pam, Volfred, sometimes berthrude if I cant get prayer beads
Also i think ill go with liberating fae and then volfred and pam as back up
it is but the one that brings teammates on exile is so fun on him!
I totally gotta replay this once im done theres so much i missed :((
tizo alone? no problem just head straight into the enemy team
banish their team by kaboom and get your team back
I’m not well versed in the gameplay as the rite nite folks, I did well enough for achievements and that’s it
rite nite folks teached me the way of volfred
Ugh i dont like how volfred plays
I will severely miss fae as my crutch if i do liberate her
before I just put the sap in the orb and called it a day
I remember emailing sg about why some achievements won’t work back in release and it turns out they don’t unlock on reduced difficulty which wasn’t mentioned 
oops
noob gaming
Yeah i have no idea how volfred works but ill still keep him on team liberate fae
(It’s me, I’m the noob)
I think my fav strategy is still black claw demons tho
- stamina refill on banishment
it just works
Ill mentor him too
is that the one that keeps the aura
yup
Oh yeah for sure
Ooh what should i choose for his mastery
keep aura on orb but no cast
I had kindling before
what rank is this?
3
I also dont remember his right tree lol
shield everyone/+hope and place sapling on own pyre on banisment
nice refresher
I like going the left tree the most tbh if I cant get the talisman that replicates the 4th mastery
(when all teammates banished, rivals cant sprint or use masteries)
Ohh
and also slowed
its time and i am NOT READY
||what about ti'zo tho||
it is!!
(also you can hear it at any point)
it plays when you change volume in the settings
im. Going to crush this stick into PIECES
Okay bye see yall until this is done 
but also manley i hate you so much
theseus of pyre
theseus is the manley of hades 
tho at least Theseus actually did something when alive lol
Manley is just uh

Actually true
like ||if you get him stuck in the downside it really remarks how dumb he is|| (actual ending spoilers)
It’s time! Again
Oops
I WON
really good game too i am SHAKING
im gonna miss fae so much oh my GOD
her response :((((
damn okay
I’m not ready for this
Feels so final
@toxic python YOU WERE RIGHT ABOUT THE SONG
This is a very hard decision
I chose pam and it feels wrong but thats okay
I got beaten really badly but i think im okay wiith it
It’s done |||and i chose to reach out to oralech and go home||
that feels great tbh
love the pam art so much
Yayyyyyyy
she is so pretty ;o;
altough Pam is the character i'm the most conflicted about ascending, I still love her ❤️
i ended up keeping her on the downside
it just felt right to let fae go esp when almer(? the fate kid lmao) just did
ooh yeah, I always try to keep em together, I like both versions a lot (||X||ae / Almer is so awesome)
I always try to keep the lovers together, and really do like that Jodi can also live a fairly happy life in the downside
Oh def
i want to liberate bertrude sometime because like
whats she gonna do
i wanna know!
not enough bertrude love in this playthrough tbh
||settles back into the southern moor and tries to live her life||
Bertrude is awesome too 🥺
Imo Ignarius is a good type, "jerk with a heart of gold, but not even a true jerk just a grump"
I really like him and Jodi together idk ❤️ they're nice
actually do you have any gimmick ideas for my next playthrough? wanna do something new (not true nightwing Yet)
sad i liberated jodi so soon (third)
that's ok tho, it's your run 😄
The two ones I've played were:
A with Jodi, Pamitha, Bertrude and Tizo remaining, and an ascended Almer (didn't reach a peaceful outcome because I sent Oralech up, I could not do otherwise ;o; )
B had Jodi, Xae and Pamitha stay, which I really liked.
The one other campaign I'm planning will finally feature Oralech and Volfred staying downside (+2 others) + and an ascended reader 🙂
Altogether, breaking Hedwyn's promise is something I'd rather do than seperating the lovebirds (Xae/Almer, Jodi/Ignarius, Volfred/Oralech) woe me 🙈
sadly enough you can't have em all topside and get a peaceful revolution haha 🥲
oooh
one interesting run would be
ascend everyone BUT yourself, Jodi, Hedwyn and Rukey
ooooooh
Not optional
Unless the Stowawae is staying down, then he must stay too
Valid
This game was so good ,teared up on the end because of the song
Their journey began~~
hedwyn was there
And proved to all that he was no deserter
Stayed true till the end
captain jodariel
keeeping watch over all of the nightwings
She stayed true till the end~
They follow the stars, bound together ✨
Strands in a braid, till the end ✨
Rukey Greentail, small in size but vast in commitment ❤️
He stayed true to the end ~~
the moon touched girl
Hears the scribes in the world all around her
She stayed true to the end~
Ti'zo the wise
🎵 was a baby boy the entire time 🎵
He stayed true to the end!!
Everyone saying ‘stayed true to the end’, did you guys not liberate anyone?
in the game you either get "remained till the end" or "found their way home" based on your choices, but in the album OST it's "stayed true till the end" for everyone
Stayed true till the end works cuz we dont mess with each other experiences
And also too lazy to search for the liberated verses
sir gilman the bold
ever in his quest, finding honor in glory
He stayed true to the end.
Pamitha Theyn
born on guilty wings, ever seeking forgiveness
She stayed true to the end
They follow the stars, bound together 🌟
strands in a braid till the end
Bound together
Okay but what's up with this chat, how is the venn diagram of pyre players and owl house fandom a flat circle
I know it's blasphemy to interrupt the song but what's up with that
Both pieces of media include lots of queer representation in a cool, well thought out fantasy world with excellent characters in a realistic but ultimately hopeful story?

Fred and Trudie over here grumbling, guess they're chopped liver 😂
Chopped liver?
...you know what, why not
Spirits tethered 
gay + pretty characters + fantasy world]
i feel like a lot of people play hades for the hot characters and gay rep and gorgeous art
and then discover the other games
honestly supergiant has been ahead of the curve on thoose things for a long time
the only one i think lacks the representation is bastion
Strands unbroken
Plus they both got Titans
And cute little animals
And the heros are criminals
There's also a shady seller named after a kind of bird
And the protagonist loves books
There's pretty harp ladies
And the villain is an Emperor who sounds very British
Haha that's gotta be it

because I'm doing a video that translated all the lyrics themes including cut onces and I want the alternatives versions of bound together in HQ I check the music files and I found that version of "In the Flame" used for a trailer still remain in the files and not only that but it's also has the lyrics and the music separated and for the name of the file "TrailersongV1.7RELEASECANDIDATE" is obvious that there were other versions
The great mastermind Volfred Sandalwood saw his plans turn to action 
yesss luckily one of them only wanted to kill the other held a grudge for one season or so 😂 ❤️
Just a tiny grudge
Honestly that's a lot more parallels than I expected be drawn at first
Both of the stories feature strong mother figures who would do anything to protect their kids ❤️
In the flame was stuck in my head by my brain changed "the journey shall be made" into "the exiles shall be paid" and I have no idea what to think of this
I found out that the song has some files that has alterations in some verse but I don't know if can share them
The exiles need a raise
Volfred and Oralech did a loooong strike
omg hello :3
HI BLUE
can i add you to friends? i promise i won't spam your dms 👉 👈
absolutely ❤️
He stayed tree true to the end 🌴
The bog-dweller Bertrude
Kept her foes at bay with her finest enchantments 🐍
she stayed true till the end!
The reader at last, made the nightwings whole having bound them together! 📚 ❤️
just realizing that the “bound together” lyric/title having the double meaning of bookbinding 
They stayed true till the end
They follow the stars ✨
Bound together
hey does Oralech react if you have hedwyn in the party when you meet him?
giving context to this i feel like i've seen people talk about that happening but in all of my playthrus i had hedwyn liberated before needing Oralech so i've never seen it
Says he's the one Volfred "replaced him" with on the Nightwings
Good ol' Heddy tries to be diplomatic about it
But Dr. 4-horns ain't having it
cool cool ty
|| Oralech: You... you must be the one whom Volfred chose to replace me. Hedwyn: No. Look, I don't know who you are, but Volfred hasn't done anything like that. That isn't why I'm here. O: Nonsense. Do not lie to me. When first I learned the Nightwings had re-formed, with some forgotten boy now at the helm... this, I needed to see for myself. And, here we have it, then. H: ...Sounds like you've got me figured out. O: Disappointing. That Volfred would take sides with someone such as this.||
oh hella ty for that
What is your pfp
it's a miniature kitchen i made
Crazed
it took like 30 hours it was insane
i posted pictures in #art if anyone would like a better look at it
Is it me or pyre doesnt work on the steamdeck ? On steam it says that the text could be too small but thats not an issue for me. But when I start the game i cant use the steamdeck controller
Anyone can help me out with this ?
Tried to reinstall and all
Love when Pyre decides to be a rom com for a while : )
||Meeting the guy you assume is your ex's new younger version of you and trying to assert dominance|| 🌟
https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/697204655339601933/1104276262240923668/image.png so is the wiki wrong or are readers always allowed to go free
||I thought the last lib rite was an exeption||
||you cant go free because you cant participate in the rites themselves||
early in the game Hedwyn mentions that you have injuries (when you can ask him a few questions and he answers after the next rite)
also readers are mainly to know where to go through guidance of the book iirc
they can be designated to coordinate your team if needed (your case)
oh I've always lowkey wondered that about Volfred! 
I'm wondering,on the last rite do you always get the option to free the reader or that depends on the one appointed to go free?
i think you always get the choice to free the reader, oralech or your anointed?
Yeah although at least in my playthroughs ||If oralech gives you his spot by talking with him, then trying to you give your spot to your anointed, will make Oralech say no, only choosing between reader or himself||
Idk if there is a different outcome to that
If you win the last rite your anointed will always offer their freedom to you. Although Rukey is unhappy about it he still offers
He's a bro

^Live now!
I finished my first playthrough yesterday and I really loved it
But I have no idea how anybody goes through the game accepting defeat
It is what it is
There are 2 freedom rites left and I get lose. There is 0% chance I'm not gonna restart the rite
God it was so stressful
Definitely one of the highlights of the game is how much those rites mean to you
Losing would be letting your friends down and dooming somebody to possibly horrible life
That's a lot of pressure
Is hard to explain without much spoilers but honestly the game really focuses on saying that there isnt any issue to lose
From your first defeat giving you bonus experience
Pamita thoughts about ||letting her sister go instead||
Characters like berthrude saying they don't care much about where they go and etc
For lib rites it cant be a bit harder tho I agree
Specially if you hate the team who you are against
Like I def reset when Manley won lmao
I techically lost one match during the whole game, but because i reset I went home with a perfec score
Or well the main reason I accepted losing in this game was my boy Oralech
He was a bit unhinged
If I was him I would be too
Like sure, it's not his fault, but we have a nation to think of
Same with Pamita and her sister
Screw the commonwealth but ||I'm not sure how peaceful the transition is gonna be if the sister gets free||
Also by losing lib rites you get to see more epilogues
Also just curious
What did Oralech did in your playthrough
||dont tell me he jumped||
I should think about losing as just progressing the stories of other characters

Pain
A lot of the villains didn't deserve the fates they got in my ending
What name did you give the moontouched girl?
Fae gang
Same. I watched a total biscuit video after finishing and he named her "bae"
I could never
I really messed up the first time I played the game when it comes to her
I stopped playing after I did it and I felt real guilt about it for years
I thought I was doing the right thing, but I just didn't think it through
On this topic
I love barker epilogue (not that he's a viklain anyways)
He just loves to play. respectable
Barker is amazing
But yea ||both times I free greentail first. I just like the humans too much to let them leave early. But in my first playthrough the next person I sent was Fae and god I damn near cried when Jodi started pointing out how stupid i was||
My 2nd fav rival behind Oralech
If ae goes up I focus entirely on sending Ti'zo/Jodi up asap
And if chance comes up maybe ||almer too||
||Jodi started talking about how worried she was for her, being alone up there and I just broke down. I thought I was doing a favor to her, but on my second playthrough I realized that ae should be with the group, with her friends as long as possible||
||She is happiest doing the rites and being in the underside where she is closest to the 8. From now on Jodi always goes before her. I was really dissapointed when Faes messenger imp message didn't specifically mention Jodi.||
My thought process for ae depends on almer most of the time
I called her zhae :)
...
Fought them like twice the entire playthrough
I was too busy trying to repair the sisters relationship
I’m confused, what does this mean 🤔
Means I didn't approve. Not that deep though
Can you even reunite the sisters?
alright, I thought it sounded nice
Nope
She made her motives very clear
||if they end together they always fight with Pam being hurt but still trying to repair the relationship||
I really shouldn't hold it too hard against her, but ||that time pam thought about killing all of the nightwings kind of stuck with me||
If they’re both on the same side tamitha injures pamitha but they’re on speaking terms from then on
oh, sorry, you said it already :P
I mean I get it. Like she says, ||you can only control your thoughts so much and what really matters is what you act on. She even warned me, but I still couldn't help but hold it against her||
||Pams epilogue if you release her solo was pretty melancholy, but I feel like there isn't a lot better result in terms of the whole story||
Who was your guys favourite character?
He is earnest
He is morally righteous, but I felt he was too simple to really get invested in
For me I mean
I really didn't talk to Oralech much
No idea why
He doesnt show much in first place
But thats the thing
Each time he does is just so
I met him like 3 times. In ||the first fight, in the carriage and in the last one||

I love pamitha a lot
Also the previous nightwings, I was pretty invested in their dynamic
His design or what?
His presence
it’s hard to choose just a few in a game with so many great characters
lest we forget, sandra is the best forever 
There is a lot of great characters, but I think you can feel the difference when your favourite one are gone
Either through the rites or when their dialogue just stops showing up
I did a run losing every rite so I had time to bond with everyone eventually
But I’m my first playthrough pamitha remained and tamitha got liberated in her stead, that moment really affected me even if it wasn’t the right choice
Wait how does this work?
you don’t win
Throw the matches
If you don't get enough "reputation" or what ever, you don't get to fight in the liberation rites, right?
no, nightwings always get their shot
Ooh. I thought that nobody would go free since you have to fight against the nightwings to go free
I really love the idea of the nightwings. A common rival for all the triumvirates
Thats also right
If there arent nightwinga you cant go free
That is why nobody went free when there were no nightwings, but the nightwings don’t have to win to get to the liberation rite
Intentionally privileged just for that reason
Thats why like half the teams are mad at you when your team finally appeara
I wonder how many different scenarios they had to plan out
based on what team members are in the game at that time
What enemies remain
God there has to be so much content in this game I will never see
"a common foe to all to prove their claim" - never to return nightwings version
Dialogue I miss because I liberated them too early
Oh yea, Sandra is my favourite character btw
I was incredibly sad when ||she started giving me the cold shoulder to protect herself||
It was a sudden shift, so I could guess the reasoning, but like in real life, you really can't know for sure
Then there was that option to "stay a little longer"
And she ||thanked me for it||
Really warms the hearth. It's damn shame she doesn't have infinite dialogue, because the mood dropped massively in the playthrough when she stopped speaking to me
And in the epilogue I read her note first which gave entirely new context to all the notes following
I truly wish that she|| doesn't grow bored of the reader and that she may find death some day||
Mine's Xae. I love the name so much ❤️
Respectable
Oralech, and from the "new" nightwings it's a tie between Jodi and Xae 😊
When they hugged my hearth melted
yesss 😭
I am actually pretty fond of the runs where they remain downside together
And when|| I sent ae to commonwealth and jodi chewed me out from worry, it broke my hearth so hard I stopped playing for years||
A mistake I will never repeat again
that means there is no need to ascend Ignarius or Almer (I like both of the couples and prefer to keep em together) - Like, the four grouping up after everything and forming a wholesome family unit ❤️
Jodi = best mom
it doesn't seem to matter to fae where she is
And Jodi doesn't really have any singular reason to return, but I always imagined they would be happier up there
Where there is real food to eat
absolutely ;o;
Also Jodi would help with the revolution, which is a thing to consider, even though I do think of their individual wants first
every nightwing would, in their own way
Named her Rhae
Also respectable
that's why the peaceful ending ||requires any 6 liberated nightwings - they're all assets to the revolution||
zhae is hard to swallow
I also love how everyone named her differently, like 😄
I'd imagine Fae is the most common one
Iirc it is
It's wonderful to have that little leeway with "canon" haha
Like with naming any baby, you kind of want to be unique, but hearing the wrong name for the rest of the game is too big of a price to pay
I found this finally even though convo moved on
:0
It's a little insane. But while that does encourage repeat playthroughs, it's not like you can go millions of times without going through same stuff over and over with just slight variations
I'll play this game again someday, but I can't guarantee that I won't just accidentally make mostly the same choices
Yeah these are just the combinations number
How did you guys like the end of the game when your time with the characters is mostly dominated by the treeman?
(depending on the playthrough I'm sure, but I'm guessing his heavy presence in the end is a constant)
Another question: Did you guys play the rites as a team or did you guys just try to run to the fire solo?
First playthrough just leroy jenkins into the pyre
Later ones are def more combo based
Specially after watching rite nite
For me it was a bit of both
I feel like you don't have the time to set up your guys without the enemy either taking the ball or killing your dudes who are too far up
(and acepting that titan stars make it really hard to do yolo)
If I push a guy close and then pass the ball to someone by my fire, they will just kill the guy I just advanced
And if I push my guys close without taking the ball, the enemy will take it
I have no clue how you play as a team. The ai seems to do it well, but I feel like that might just be due to me being bad at punishing it
Just passing the orb to someone in the back so your character in the front regains their aura already helps
The only "strategy" I utilized was putting a guy with high presence near a choke point
The tree guy was amazing at that
Or characters like tizo and pam with their movement skills can help someone slower reach the pyre quickly
What does this mean
Tizo right skill tree has the skill that creates a portal to tekeport to when he is banished
Yolo into enemy pyre with tizo and have someone like jodi tp in front of the rival pyre
Sure that one, but I wouldn't count that as general team play
Can also use pam salute skill to swap places with someone with higher dmg
I don't think I pressed T the entire game. not saying it's not useful, just saying i never felt it neccesary
mae’s salute is so useful
Salute skills are amazing
you really can solo it with the right masteries
And yes
So many of the characters can just sprint
Savages salute is blessed
Salute, run, throw ball, repeat
Throwing the ball. Another thing I never did
If you know how to time wyrm's salute is also a free score
Or crones salute
That one is a win condition
Also useful because your team doesn’t get banished
Throwing the orb to the enemy face also works
Since I played with my team one by one it never really mattered
They lose the aura and you can just cast them away or run into them
The classic AI move of throw the orb at them and then cast
Most definitely, but that usually didn't work out for the ai
Also savage with falling star or demons with quick throwing and orb banishment skill
Is fun
*shooting star
I used to set up ai battles against each other and see who would win 
I can't remember whose Sandra fight it is, but there is that one fight against 3 imps that seems impossible if you have a high difficulty
rushing it down the middle worked fine for my first playthru but I tried the more team based strategies for true nightwing since I thought it’d work better overall
I didn't have high difficulty, but if the AI knows what it is doing, those imps with ridiculous presence can just sprint at you
the strategies that worked for me were passing it btwn two fast characters on the top and bottom of the map because the ai usually wasn’t smart/fast enough to take out either of them, and that would let the characters regen stamina
and having one character banish the whole enemy team and then pass it to bertrude specifically to run it down, because she was fast + does a lot more pyre damage
Seems reasonable
Berthrude can run down the enemy pyre so well
Also her throw is annoying
(when playing vs other crones)
Many characters can do that, but what she has that most don't is dmg
Anything that lingers or moves slow seems to mess with the ai
They are much easier to hit than fast moving ones
The ai can just jump
But if the aura lingers, they walk into it
Yeah I had a lot of success using Pam’s cast because the ai walked into her aura a lot
same with volfred’s sapling
I initially played Volfred for defence, but god his shift can be broken
Volfred 
If you upgrade his talisman he just spam teleports through the map
You can teleport outside the map too lol
if you miss the fire, you are screwed since he is so slow
True, I keep seeing people using the teleport really well in rite nite but I never got the hang of blinking to the right place so I mainly played him defensively
yeah I think I missed the pyre 100% of the times I tried this, but then again I only tried abt 4 times. and then would get banished immediately
You get a feel for it after a while
My fav team is still memeing in ores arena with demons tho
I felt like a genius when I missed the fire, but then realized to tp away from the fire to get just the right angle
