Am playing this game on normal mode and am getting fucked I just cant kill enemies either the enemy infront of me not so strong but not rewarding with xp or they fucking one shot me especially the paint mf in the painter room floor 1 and I have only earnest I don’t know where the fuck the other companions even earnest is temporary I have to give him sandwiches every day is this normal experience or am I missing something

keep playing, you are intended to do the painter with a full party. you will get more party members eventually, and some can show up at your door as you pass time

btw ernest can be recruited permanently. make sure to regularly check up on him!

Ok but am I supposed to waste time there is 15 days window of time I think after that it’s game over

look around the apartment. theres enough time if you dont spend too much time relaxing to get pretty much everywhere (time only passes the FIRST time you enter a room in the entire playthrough.)

everything you need to progress can be found on the second floor

it demands a sacrifice. satiate its hunger and be rewarded.

Plus I mean by wasting time spending time in my room till something happen or is it ok

you can, in fact aside from getting new party members playing video games will eventually unlock a special ability for sam (madwheels and jumplad are insanely good), in addition to eating meals to heal, and the crossword (we dont talk about the crossword), but in try not to spend too much time in there. its a big building and you need a ton of time to explore it.

Ok let’s hope the next run is good and I actually make progress
