DalaranJ posted:The worst part about this game is it’s impossible to work on the puzzles when I’m away from the game, so I just spend all day desperately trying to avoid clicking any of the spoilers in the thread. I watched a certain Let's Play of the original La Mulana before I played it myself but I still felt it was very difficult regardless of my foreknowledge. I've been disciplined with not looking at spoilers so far and it is extremely satisfying to solve puzzles and beat the guardians.

Is it really impossible? I've spent the entire day thinking about all the solutions I'm going to try out as soon as I get home. I probably should start writing them down, tbh.

Svampson posted:Question regarding mirror: Mulbruk told me that Fobos has the mirror, talked to Fobos and he said he gave it to Samaranta and to go talk to him, but when I go up to him in the Mausoleum of Giants he won't talk to me, won't trigger a dialogue or anything. Is it bugged? If it is bugged, will it stop me from getting the mirror or does he simply give a hint regarding it's location? I don't think this is a bug, since he appears in a few spots in the original ruins depending on your progress, and in at least one of them I can't interact with him at all. For example, have you tried talking to him in the La Mulana ruins, up near the blocked off path with a sign saying something like it's too dangerous? I can do so there, but not in his original space (where he still is!) because I've finished off the bit in that section already.

Alright, I need some direction on where to head next. This is my inventory  and I've killed 4 guardians, Roots, Valhalla, Annfwn, Immortal Battlefield.I've putzed around in just about everywhere I can reach and it seems like I SHOULD be able to get into the underworld or get the cog, but I've been wandering around for awhile and still don't have a real good idea what I should be even trying to accomplish.

After hours of combing over my file of tablet hints, I solve a puzzle by accident by jumping into a random wall on a whim. Finally, progression! Oh wait no it's another crystal skull gently caress meProcrastine posted:I've beaten 6 guardians, my biggest question now is where is the map of all mantras Thoth mentions? That would help. if anyone has hints feel free, I'm so sick of rereading tablets, it feels like every puzzle I have access to requires something from the Underworld but I don't know how to get there Agent355 posted:Alright, I need some direction on where to head next.

Didn't realize he would be standing at multiple spots, I was pretty sure I had checked the rest of the La Mulana ruins but there he was, I'm back on track, now that's a load of my back!

Yeah thats what the perfume does, I'm not entirely sure where I got it because the game glitched out and didn't give me the pop up for some reason but I'm about 90% sure it's from heaven's corridor I spoke to Amun Ra in devil's courtyard and he was all mad about 'just one more' and flew off, I went down to the screen it looked like he went to but couldn't find anything else

Rirse posted:Okay am I being dumb but how I get into this door here. Double jump, OR, hang on the ladder and drop off just before getting hit so the knockback sends you onto the ledge (there's no horizontal knockback when holding onto a ladder). Trust me though, the reward is disappointing.

Oh no, I was trying to save up for the harp and I just discovered, in the most painful way possible, that the money cap is 999. I guess there's a way to increase the cap or just an alternate way to get it. I'm pretty sure I need to have no money to progress so it's time to hunt down some of those game apps.

Well, I don't know if the npc dialog bugged out for you but it should be obtainable regardless. It's hidden in the la mulana ruins, behind some foreground scenery near that guy's tent shop. You need doublejump though iirc

There's a hidden shop that sells you an item for that. It's somewhere in shrine of the frost giant I just want to say how much fun it is playing this game when there isn't a guide to go look up answers. Normally I give it the good ole college try and then go look something up. Right now thats impossible so I give it the good ole college try then come here (or my steam friends list) to collaborate answers on the harder puzzles. This is great. E: I'm in the underworld

I'm still looking for a few things: - Where can I find the katana - Or the third sigil - What do I do in the room that's adjacent of the save point in Icefire where there's a button I can't reach and a big statue in the middle (which zaps me if I hit it) And generally about Icefire, what is needed to use the other exit to Immortal battlefield, which seems blocked for me from both sides?
