lowercase skye Posted September 5, 2024 Share Posted September 5, 2024 Ickers are FANTASTIC, I love them a lot. This is the first thing shadow rifts have gotten that feels like a genuine, active threat on a similar level as brightshades and lunar hail. Presentation-wise, the way they slowly glop down from the ceiling and land with a thud is awesome and terrifying, but gameplay-wise it still gives you enough time to get out of the way or panic-equip some armor. They make the freshly-opened-rift stage of finding the ink blights to craft your first planar gear really exciting, since you have to move slowly and may even need a lazy explorer to get through a particularly tightly-packed bunch of them, and once you DO get planar gear they're like pinatas of nightmare fuel so long as you're careful and mindful of their spawning... and if you AREN'T mindful, they're really terrifyingly deadly. It's all very neat. These aren't complicated thoughts, I just finally got to the point in the progression where they appear and wanted to give some praise. They're really awesome and I hope they aren't toned down too bad if they get adjusted.

Keknutui Posted September 5, 2024 Share Posted September 5, 2024 16 minutes ago, finn from human said: Икеры ФАНТАСТИЧЕСКИЕ, я их очень люблю. Это первое, что получили shadow rifts, которое ощущается как настоящая активная угроза того же уровня, что и brightshades и lunar hail. С точки зрения презентации то, как они медленно падают с потолка и приземляются с глухим стуком, потрясающе и устрашающе, но с точки зрения игрового процесса это все равно дает вам достаточно времени, чтобы убраться с дороги или в панике надеть какую-нибудь броню. Они делают только что открытый этап поиска чернильных гнилушек в rift для создания вашего первого планарного снаряжения по-настоящему захватывающим, поскольку вам приходится двигаться медленно и, возможно, даже понадобится ленивый исследователь, чтобы пробраться через особенно плотное скопление из них, и как только вы получаете планарное снаряжение, они подобны пиньяте из nightmare fuel, если вы осторожны и помните об их появлении... и если вы невнимательны, они действительно ужасающе смертоносны. Все очень аккуратно. Это не сложные мысли, я просто наконец-то добрался до того момента в прогрессии, когда они появляются, и хотел немного похвалить. Они действительно потрясающие, и я надеюсь, что они не будут слишком уж плохими, если их скорректировать. But if the players don't like them, they can always tame the beefalo.

Maxil20 Posted September 5, 2024 Share Posted September 5, 2024 I think all I want is a minor tone down in damage so a default character with 150 HP isn’t 1 shot without armor (something like 20 normal + 20 planar to 15 normal + 15 planar would still eat 120 health, making it dangerous but not unsurvivable). I really like the concept and the stealing equipped items gimmick as these by themselves can put you in some very bad spots, and I prefer that over it’s sheer damage. Otherwise, I really don’t have qualms with it. It’s unique, I like the spots it can spawn in (utilizing the otherwise cave generic bridges is a really neat idea!), and I think it’s a very unique threat that feels dangerous without being too bothering in areas like an open area given the spawn restrictions.

ZeRoboButler Posted September 5, 2024 Share Posted September 5, 2024 Could you imagine if they tried to corner the player or combined to make a larger slime? Oh man, I would be surprised if klei decided not to do something like that down the line. As they are now I like em' enough, I have been so SO close to being grabbed by these gooey grim globs on so many occasions and with the threat they pose, I had a nice mix of fear and surprise when they cropped up when they had. Great mobs. Link to comment https://forums.kleientertainment.com/forums/topic/159513-ickers-are-great-and-i-love-them/#findComment-1745914 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Deactive41year Posted September 5, 2024 Share Posted September 5, 2024 they should become pinatas in general, droping random assortments of complete junk- I mean resources because why not.
