    Randy It's roughly synonymous with "That's so hardcore." It's not literally the same thing as "cool." Just a couple examples: A really neat optical illusion: cool, but not "so metal." Someone chopping off their own hand to get out of a bear trap: definitely "so metal." Of course the phrase is also often used ironically to refer to things that are not considered hardcore at all, e.g. "I just stubbed my toe, went right on walking like it was nothing" "dude that's so metal".

Few upgrades and weapons. And not that great character progress system. Other than that, I say it again solid game! Hope the team gets recognition for what they achieved here, and will go on strong with a few dlc's or a series in the future.

    I am loving this game. But I have encountered a very annoying bug. After beating the boss in the zone where you get the big fire staff I made my way back to Falgrim tower through the fog with my gland only to have the game crash as I talk to Sester. Here’s where it gets good. I reload the game only to have a notification pop up saying corrupt save file. When I reload the game it resets the whole world. BUT...it loaded my character with all my upgrades and inventory. So all the one of items I got to pick up again. I also got to refight the weapon bosses with the weapon I’m supposed to unlock from them. Lol. What sucks though? I beat the boss in the fire zone a second time and took it to bird beast. Which was enough to trigger the final boss fight. Yet I still had one more gland to get. So, I go get that gland and try to use my ornate mask to fast travel back to Falgrim tower. But you can’t fast travel while holding a gland. And sincethe bird beast already left to ascend I have no way to get rid of the gland. 🤬🤬🤬

    Mortal Shell is probably the most satisfying Souls-like I've played yet. It takes exactly what it likes from Souls and makes its own streamlining improvements. Hope they add a few more weapon types moving forward, while being careful to keep them distinct. The shells are already well-rounded to encouraging use of different mechanics and playstyles available. Harros is the balanced all-rounder, Tiel favors dodging, Solomon favors parries; Eredrim favors risking hardening, parrying, and making trades.

    Thank you gameranx for highlighting this game. I feel the developers really had a handle on this game, right down to giving the player agency wherever they could (by creating a central hub that can branch out to the other "biomes", taken in any order.) when they knew the customization would be a bit limited. This game still feels like a triple A experience all around.

    I love the look of these games so much, and I always watch 100% playthroughs and speedruns, but sadly, as a 33 yr old man, I am too much of a wuss to play them. Edit: I love all the guys in the comments beating their chests about how old they are and how they've beaten the Souls games. I can tell you're very proud of yourselves... Edit 2: I've now beaten DS1 and 3. I thought 1 was OK at best and 3 was really fun in a lot of places. I'm still not huge on the mechanics of the methodical gameplay over a typical hack and slash, and I do wish the environments were brighter, but I think I'm going to give this game a try.

    If you play the lute to the giant frog he spews at you giving your armour a different and really cool look, and a different one for each shell. It’s actually rad. That’s why the giant frog is there. I’m late to the party with this game but man, I really really really hope there is a full sized sequel. Fifteen people made this game!

    This game is incredible. The difficulty of it draws me in because the bosses are difficult but beatable. At least the ones I've fought so far. Makes you wanna jump back in and play until you finally beat the bosses which is incredibly satisfying once you do. 10/10 for me. 🙌

    At least mention the Discord server. Great game, by the way. I completed it with the balanced shell the first time and I am running through it again. The ballistazooka is integrated correctly in the gameplay: it is effective, but you need ammo for it, which is not cheap. This makes the players appreciate every occasion they have to use it. Also, the cat has a name: Sero, the serotonin cat.

    Mortal Shell is such a gem. I bought it right after finishing Elden Ring, and... I uninstalled due to difficulty after 1 hour of gaming. Few months later I returned to this beauty, finished it, only flaw is that after couple of hours this game seemed to be just too easy. And then I beat it again. And then I bought all Dark Souls games + DLCs and beat them... then Elden Ring twice more. Then many other Souls like titles. Mortal Shell helped to get me addicted to Souls games.
