I LOVE LOVE LOVE Tunic. It brought me to an age that I never experienced and took me on greater journeys than any other game, and that sudden shift is such an important part of it. I put together the Holy Cross. I translated the language. Sometime, I hope soon, I'll gather my bravery patience and wisdom and tackle the voice of the Far Shore. Tunic is a game that ends when you're satisfied. I think there's something incredibly beatiful and fullfilling about it. Almost as if it's how things SHOULD be.

15:43 (SPOILER ALERT!!!!! click/tap on read more if you don't care/have beaten the game) note: you only need most of the fairies to be able to solve the Golden Path puzzle. i know this because i solved the Golden Path puzzle before 100%ing the fairies. they give you the final page you need after you get most of them (check back at the secret fairy place behind the waterfall after getting a couple of fairies)

I also never figured out "This Guy" until the epilogue chapter that directly explained it. I might have missed a line but the twist missed me completely. Even during the final chapter in which we've been building up that "This Guy" wants X and has spent years working towards it as his endgoal, it is revealed that is now going after Y, as well. In trying to get Y, everything falls apart in an incredibly anti-climatic way. This Y thing was never brought up nor was it integral to his character or goals. He just wanted Y because........ IDK. I guess a lot of poeple want Y in life but were there no alternatives to Y? Could it not have waited? He would've surely won if he just stuck to the plan. It bugs me because it felt like such a copout.

Hi, Nice Video, thank you. Today we know a bit more about Tunic, just a some knowledge we have to day. - Tunic has a Spoken Language. The Written Language you can learn is also spoken. All ferry speak to you, the even break the 4th Wall and make jokes about the game devs. The Main Menu sound when you lad or start a new message tells you something. I think that is incredible, how deep it is. - Than we have hidden Messages in the Sounds, When you put some sounds into a spectrograph, you can see hidden messages. - The world building is also even deeper as we saw at the first look, one of the main characters was the boss from the library that tried to break the cycle. I think Tunic is a unique experience and I love to see what the people will find out during the coming years.

It is like therapy to realise that this is why I couldn't get on with it. Playing this game has been like a peek into the mind of a madman.

I understand the allure, really. Humans are problem solvers by nature, but everyone has a different patience on how much time and brainpower they are willing to invest in solving a puzzle. Saying that, this game is not for me. I just got bored halfway through, because once you understand the mechanics, is just remixes of the same puzzles again and again.

If your point was that the obra dinn and the golden idol was different, sure, I could get behind that.

That’s like saying Nintendogs isn’t a pet game because you aren’t playing as a pet.

You can hate it for its lack of a satisfying ending. That being said, with all of the energy and patience required to get through to the game's ending, would _any_ ending be satisfactory? This game is the definitive manifestation of "It's not about the destination; it's about the journey."

All the people talking about The Witness when talking about Tunic have not played FEZ If you played FEZ and 100%ed it, the Witness is a fucking joke FEZ as much as Tunic has an in-world language (and numbers-/counting-system) that you need to translate (as much as you can translate the script in Tunic) and you need to heavily think outside the box for it. I wrote so many fucking pages of paper full of codes and stuff for FEZ It was fucking rad. And what I loved about Tunic is that it's a Zelda-Darksouls with a good dose of that.

i just finished my first playthrough and what an amazing game. I didn't do everything, but I did everything i wanted to do. I ended up choosing the atomic/whale mask because in my time exploring the world i, or rather sable, became very connected with the past and I wanted to represent my ancestors wherever I went. I like how the mask you choose or identify most with can sort of add a bit of narrative to your journey.

I know this is a very old video, but I do think that one part that often gets overlooked in the difficulty debate is how not having difficulty options can be a *feature* for players who want a difficult experience but have trouble with the willpower associated with sticking to it. For instance, I *know* that I enjoy CRPGs more when I don't save-scum, but when I make a catastrophic dialogue decision or roll, I find it incredibly difficult if not impossible to keep myself from save-scumming and ruining the experience for myself. The same issue is the reason I find Nuzlockes in Pokemon almost impossible to complete. I know that Pokemon is too easy, and I can feel for myself that the tension of a Nuzlocke improves my experience. But when my favorite Pokemon gets knocked out to a random crit, I can almost never summon the willpower to actually box it like I'm supposed to. That being said, I think there are ways to incorporate accessibility options while providing accessibility options that the strawman "Gamers" ignore. I think Etrian Odyssey Nexus' "Heroic" difficulty option is a great example. It is the highest difficulty but also the intended difficulty. The difficulty "below" it (Expert) is literally identical. The only difference between the two is that Heroic a) marks your save as Heroic and b) you can switch off of Heroic at any time but you can never switch *to* Heroic after starting your save file. That might seem stupid, but even that amount of friction is enough to make a system that discourages impulsive difficulty changes. That's why I personally also like when difficulty-related accessibility options can only be changed in the main menu, especially in games with permissive saving. I understand that it is a level of friction, but it is also a level of friction which prevents impulsively lowering the game speed when it isn't really about accessibility but impatience.

I, actually, really loved this game. A few puzzles were aggravating, but the frustration is a part of games like this, just like it's a part of Sekiro. Thing's this: This game is like a fantastic, interactive, huge sudoku puzzle booklet. But if you don't like sudokus, well... Don't force yourself to solve the whole booklet and then complain to people who actually do like sudokus about how boring it all was. The game never tricks you, it's not like you didn't KNOW it was about line puzzles from the very start. At the same time, we love to have something to hate sometimes, so hey.

I liked the puzzles. The end game gives you a randomized challenge witch is really fun also and yu can't stop the game and do it on mspaint unless youre using other computer. But the puzzles I find to be fun And I don't agree with your points at all. This is just a kind of puzzle you don't like. Rule discovering games can be fun and after you understand the rule it's just like playing a sudoku game and trying to fit every piece together. Also, how do you make a puzzle about hearing to be able to be beatable without hearing? Or a puzzle about colour without colour? At the moment you add symbols or text the puzzle stops being about the thing they very are.
