I wish they'd add Mario or Link in the nintendo versions. And Gaben in the steam version.

They'll be done with all the Kickstarter content and I assume that they probably need to make a second game rather than pumping out infinite free content for the rest of their career. Maybe. Frankly I'm amazed they're basically still pumping out the stretch goals though I assume they have another game in the wings they haven't announced yet.

They asked about spinoffs and sequels a while back so they're probably done with Shovel Knight the game but not Shovel Knight the franchise.

i'd probably pay a lot to get campaigns for the remaining knights :v:

just rewatched the trailer, holy poo poo i can't loving wait

apparently it's a prequel? it's cool that they go the extra mile and try to fit the campaigns in a timeline sorta.

I imagine the king knight campaign will be him trying to reclaim his kingdom after the end of the game.

Yeah I'll be honest, even if the game is exclusive to one platform for just a month, that's still kind of a jerk move for them to make. Just cause they made a good game and are providing a huge amount of support for it doesn't mean that they shouldn't be held accountable for questionable decisions like that.



it's not like it's a free add on or anything

.. it isn't? They're selling it separately and you have to pay extra to buy it compared to the previous cost of Shovel Knight. They're giving it away free to current owners but that isn't really the same thing as a free add-on.

you can still buy the original version of shovel knight and get all of the expansions for free.

Right. So? Would you say Bethesda didn't increase the cost of the Fallout 4 DLC just because they didn't raise it right away?

I really don't know anything about Fallout 4's DLC but the Shovel Knight price increase seems incredibly lenient:

-the game has been out for a few years now, and people who already bought will still get all dlc campaigns for free, as promised.

-the dlc was free for a long time (and in fact is still free for every consoles but the switch)

-they're warning us about the price increase with months to spare, meaning people can still get the campaigns for free.

The Switch version being more expansive is probably part of why it's releasing earlier than the others.

Mouse over the following spoiler to find the answer to your question: You know those things that shoot little flasks, and the flasks break and they catch fire on any water they touch? Those things? You can hit them and they'll fly up. There's one of them where if you hit the flask, it'll fly up and destroy a ceiling. That's where the wisp chest is. It's in the same room as a checkpoint.

Yep found it, thanks!
