Spuddy having yet another existential crisis on a final boss.

I'll stop when bosses stop being ridiculous! This obviously has no correlation to the rule sets that I choose!

I'm sorry, but unless those insects were already on your person, and you somehow could telepathically control them, no matter what the game (mechanics) thinks, I'd count your 'emergency measure' as summoning.

the bugs are 100% a summon, the definition of a summon in most fantasy aspects is conjuring a creature to do your bidding, execptions generally being when the summon is against you (think unbound dremora from skyrim as a rare exception) since the insects are without question creatures, they are considered summons, your holdup is probably that they do not have health bars, but in argument i say, many games and medias have summons who's only purpose is to harm the enemy by killing itself, Exploding spiders from Skyrim, even the bomb spore creatures in the game are suicide summons, just used against you by a boss instead.

THANK YOU! So many players (and challenge runners) do not think like this. They get so hung up on technicalities and semantic details that they punish themselves trying to follow those and it ends up being less fun for *everyone* involved.

I'm not sure if the bugs are allowed or not but I congratulate you for deciding to prioritize your time and health over a sixteen hours boss fight that we viewers wouldn't even enjoy because it seems really boring. Thanks for the video. 😊

@SpuddyCube oh heck yeah 😁 100% Remnnt isn't perfect but it's a gem. Late game builds are especially fun and shred. I'm gonna adore Rem 2

Might be a bit late to this one but that swarm does technically count as a summon. It doesnt benefit from anything that buffs summons but weirdly it does count AS summoning for things that track it. It's very strange but you are in the clear for this one.

Personally I believe that the bugs count as I believe the word unleash could be considered a synonym of summon. Also you can pet the dog that you summon not just the dog next to the merchant on Tatooine. Also the last summon the turret sucks there would have been no use for it. All in all good job.

I love this game so much, thanks for reminding me to go play it again

Remnant is very flawed but so fun and playing it with my friends was amazing. The summons are a blast, great video!

I love Remnant. Got so much mileage just rerunning the whole story to unlock everything (before adventures were a thing) and the DLC are amazing. One of my favorite things about the game, other than the weapon mod system, is that a bunch of world bosses (the dragon, Harrow, Ent, etc) mostly have two ways to kill them, each way giving a different reward. Felt very rewarding experimenting to find them and pulling off the trickier ones. Can't wait for Remant 2. Definitely gonna be one of my favorite games this year hopefully.

If the sequel manages to learn and build up from here, then I think we're all in for a heck of a treat. I'm really excited to see what they do with it.

With how the game is structured, it's not too hard to pick back up with the same character. Good prep for the sequel when it comes around. Or not, of course. I had fun with this one, at least.

I think the only reason the games says they are not is because A) they deal a specific damage type, B) they have a low duration and finally, C) they home in and are basically a DoT. Either way its a bloody summon so the entire run is valid and you mental health and time should never be put into question for a game.

@SpuddyCube

Жыл бұрын

I don't believe it was far from my normal summon build. I think if I were to build around it specifically while keeping raw damage in a casual run I would gravitate toward a full Labyrinth set. I would have used the Spirit Stone, Burden of the Follower, and Galenic Charm. Alternatively, you could build around crit, as Swarm can indeed crit. The Radiant set, Braided Thorns, Burden of the Gambler, or Akari War Band. I think I would probably go toward Nightmare Spiral for an amulet, but I think that slot is fairly open. You could theoretically get some more crit from the Polished Whetstone, but only if you're also dealing bleed. You could get a bit more crit out of Hunter's Mark or use the bleed from Skewer/Fan of Knives but that's maybe getting into the weeds a bit for general play. It may be better to put in the time to pick up the Black Rose and swap in a single piece of the Labyrinth set while keeping the full Radiant set bonus. As far as traits... Ideally everything affecting mod damage/mod generation/crit damage/crit chance/elemental damage. This is all a fair bit theoretical, as I'm missing a pretty good amount of the parts involved. I just enjoy theory crafting. Do keep in mind that the damage against Nightmare is a bit disproportional due to the void buff. So while this is generally what I would aim to gather, I can't guarantee how either version would perform.

I might at some point down the line, but I honestly wasn't quite sure how it was integrated into the game when doing the run. I think it's a bit too short to revisit for just this ruleset specifically. I wouldn't be opposed to playing the game more casually at some point, but it's a question of free time. It's overall a lot of fun, and I really enjoyed my time with it, even with the more restrictive rules. It does help that I really like using summons. To be entirely fair, this was pretty close to how I'd play the game normally anyway. As for the general polish, the game sort of screams "double A" to me. The controls are just a bit off. The animations aren't quite fluid. Enemy attack patterns, environments, dialogue, etc. The game as a whole comes across as either an incredibly impressive indie game, or one that just didn't quite have enough time/budget to have things come out as clean as something like God of War for instance. Bigger studios have more than enough money to throw at all of their problems until everything is just really smooth. I wouldn't expect that kind of execution from a smaller studio, of course. But to make the obvious comparison, this game just isn't nearly as well executed as something like Dark Souls three. It's clearly full of good ideas and passion that made for a fantastic experience, but it has a lot of flaws that come with making a big idea with less resources. To be absolutely clear, I really like this game, and I'm super excited to see the sequel.
