Updating Torghast this Week

Feat of Strength for those of us who beat 8 pre-nerf?

I had to get very, very creative to beat that Empowered Consular on floor 5 yesterday…

Not really. With Anima Powers in their current state it’s going to be more of an endurance run. After 6 floors I could easily have enough power, utility and survivablilty to solo world bosses. After 18 floors? Woo. They’d have to make that floor 18 boss strong enough to make Denathrius ruin his pants.

So how long did you need to bang your head until you realised : hey maybe I’m not ready for this?

Guess it was easier to come here to whine.

They can add more difficulties when people get more gear.

Like I said, Twisting Corridors is coming soon. You can get the cosmetics there so you can flex on us casuals who can’t solo raid bosses.

That’d be unfortunate. It felt like Twisting Corridors was a chance to add solo prestige cosmetics to the game like the Necromancer title in FFXIV for clearing Palace of the Dead solo. I kind of wanted something like that here.

Surprisingly Nintendo was difficult for a very similar reason. Extremely long with no ability to save (in Toghast to walk away.)

It was amazing watching people beat sonic 2 in one sitting.

When you don’t have a well thought out debate so you cry ‘toxic’ in hopes that the opposing debator will back down from their superior logic.

this comes from all the peen waving, primarily at the prot pally’s …

and if this is layer 8 now 3 weeks in, what do you think you will be doing a year from now once geared up?
if we shouldn’t even be doing layer 8 cuz gear or progression then remove it until that time gate is open.

I never said it was :stuck_out_tongue: I know how Torghast works. I know more challenging content leads to quicker rewards.

while i disagree with you, id like to use your comment as a perfect example of how removing the downvote button on forums accomplished nothing, as everyone instead just flags comments in lieu of downvoting when they disagree.

So gate layer releases because players are too stupid to realize a floor with a higher number may be harder and they may need to gear up a bit more?

I would accept this as a consolation prize, barely.

This is such a stupid take. Microtransactions exist in multiplayer games to keep content updated and companies funded. Why do you think everyone is going “here’s a free game, please buy these microstransactions to keep us afloat.” microtransactions very rarely exist in single player games outside of cosemetics and even then, most of the time they’re preorder bonuses. Holding your hand? What single player game are you playing that’s holding your hand? I’ll tell you what - go on steam right now and go play Exanima and it’ll be 10 times harder than any game you ever played growing up on your dusty old NES. Every kid born in the 90’s smashed the games on the NES and N64. Hell, Dark Souls 1 is harder than any NES game and that game is a beaten by people using bananas as controllers. You have absolutely no idea what you’re talking about.

We have a different definition of value then. Twisting corridors offers nothing of value to me.

Ion himself said twisting corridors is way harder, and right from floor 1 it’s harder (not just harder because there’s more floors). So right away getting to those higher floors will be harder. He himself said it’s meant to the be optional challenge for cosmetics similiar to mage tower. But OKAY dude, you know better than the game director about what unreleased content contains based on literally nothing but your wannabe elitism. You’re right its totally going to be a breeze, casuals win again! /s

You really don’t understand they cast like they have permanent bloodlust do you? I guess since your defensive just let you cheese it you didn’t really see the problem

Until casuals cry about not getting cosmetics & toys like they originally suggested for torghast changes. Same thing thats happening right now for soul ash - and its not even a visual thing! just a resource!

Never occured to you that maybe you just don’t have the skills to do it? I did layer 8 just fine…

The waverunner level of Battletoads was nearly impossible. If not actually impossible.

How long is this exactly? Long enough to go to the bathroom without coming back to a dead character hopefully!
