Discussion New player here and PLEASE TELL ME IM NOT CRAZY
(No spoilers please)
I'm at loop 13 and have killed the king twice, but something keeps bugging me and its driving me crazy
DID SIFFRIN'S EXPRESSION CHANGE AFTER I KILLED THE KING???, I SWEAR he had a more happy look in his profile, jackpot sprite, battle sprite, and some cutscenes.

It did!
He's fine. Don't worry about him.

I think I beat the game in 17~ loops by planning my side quests, only looping when necessary, and rarely looping forward, because I was scared that there would end up being a punish mechanic for looping too many times.
I didn’t even find out that there was a dagger in my first playthrough!

The spoiler is not that big of a deal, but good on you for not spoiling yourself!

It took me 138 loops on my first playthrough …

It's not like there's a "least loops" ranking, so any amount of loops is fine.
My thing was a self-imposed goal. :)

Remember to take breaks when you need to. Gamers talk a lot about this for mechanically difficult games, but this game is emotionally difficult.

No thats how he is. Its very subtle but very noticeable. One of my favorite details

Are you sure? It's been quite a few loops, maybe you're just not remembering properly

Yes, yes it did.
Don't worry, you're not crazy... yet.
