And they didn't just copy the job system, they added the Brave and Default system which I am still shocked no other JRPG turn-based developer have looked at and said "oh let's do something like that too". Including Square Enix itself!

Ah, you mean Xenosaga's Stock system.

It’ll be on the game’s page where the price is, right below that is the add to wishlist option, and download demo should be right below that

this isn't the case for octopath, for some reason the demo is a separate entry in the eshop. just search for octopath and it'll come up

Hollow Knight decided to collapse the floor under me and send me to Deepnest. I can’t get back without going through Ancient Basin apparently, and there’s a spiky jump I can’t make. I’m probably done with this game, which is a real shame ‘cause I was having fun up until this.

The only movement abilities I have are dash and wall jump

If you fell into Deepnest from Fungal Wastes then you can just get back the same way. If you fell into the hot springs then I mean, I guess you fell into Deepnest from Deepnest? There's a few different ways out, might be tricky without the map/lamp though

I think your lamp reveals the hidden coins and golden mushroom sprouts in stages, you should leave it on unless there's a reason to turn it off

Ah, yeah I don’t have the lamp. There was an area that was totally black that I didn’t explore. I ended up making my way to King’s Station and took the stagway from there. I’m so glad that I didn’t hit a brick wall!

Captain Toad? I prefer it undocked because the dot goes away and you just used the touchpad instead.

I didn't find one. I just decided to play it handheld because the cursor was pretty drat annoying.

It would be nice if there was a button to toggle it off and on for when you need it. But I guess we need that for a headlamp.

I'd prefer having the cursor all of the time because I hate touch screens. Forcing you to use touch in handheld mode means that I will never play handheld.

Hurry up before they shut this down. Apparently you can keep stacking the various 15% off coupons on top of each other. I pulled the trigger at 2 but apparently 2 more have been revealed. I'd imagine they'll cut this off pretty quick.

If you ever get stuck in Hollow Knight you can just close the game and when you open it you'll be back at the last bench you saved at with all the stuff you collected since you last saved.

Just preordered Pokémon for like $20 with this.:lol:

On second thought though, maybe it would have been smarter to get something that’s already out before they cancel it.

They're text codes, in that you have to text the code to a phone number and then it'll reply with a link to the actual coupon code. They very well may have shut them down though.
