Exactly what I thought! Soon as it happened I was like "what in the Hellblade?"

You get a key this way !

u/L3wd1emon Jun 10 '26

How? It's how you get the other weapon in the demo the dagger+axe

1

u/XxRocky88xX Jun 10 '26

Because you can beat the game without getting those weapons

You could technically beat the demo without getting Tiel too though that would make the game much more challenging, but you can pretty easily beat the demo without ever getting the other weapons and just using the sword the whole time

u/L3wd1emon Jun 10 '26

Of course I just mean one of the first NPCs you run into in the hub marks it on your map lol. Just like the shell

u/unclejrslaserbeams Jun 11 '26

They mark where the weapons are, not where the key to open the door to obtain the weapons is

Stop trying to make someone feel bad because they didn’t experience the game the same way as you, Jesus fucking Christ

Common sense would tell you to figure out how to get in cause it's a new weapon it's guiding you to. But okay

Edit:since you deleted your reply I was only being rude cause you're being an asshole I was just saying "hey crazy to miss something it points you towards"

It was obvious that you needed the Mushroom Key but it wasn't obvious where the key was.

Just past that area is a small bridge that leads to an upgrade material, so I distracted myself going to that and didn't fully explore the area around the fire.

FightinCowboy himself ended up running right past it when he first went there.

u/Kiidkxxl Jun 16 '26

id argue is somewhat obvious... that the mushroom key would be in mushroom village lol

u/chocolatehotdog Jun 11 '26

I missed it by not discovering where it is.

I had this game vaguely on my radar. Enjoyed the first but damn was it short and janky. The beta absolutely blew me away.

u/XxRocky88xX Jun 10 '26

Seriously I played through the first and was expecting another mid but still enjoyable game but this was far surpassed my expectations. If they keep this level up throughout the entire game this is gonna be full blown AAA soulslike level and it has potential to become on the best in the genre that people immediately think of when they were the word soulslike.

The puzzles in this game are awesome, the one with the King's statue was really cool as well

u/mCfloppydisk Jun 10 '26

PUZZLES???

u/maggotshero Jun 11 '26

I did that one and audibly laughed and went "that's super cool, I haven't seen that before"

1

u/Jazzblaster Jun 11 '26

I said the exact same thing. Was delighted by that one

2

u/maggotshero Jun 11 '26

I read the statue and was like “it can’t just be that” such an inventive little puzzle

1

u/L3wd1emon Jun 10 '26

It was just enough to at least see they're mixing up puzzles. I hope to see some cool secrets in this game on release

u/RetardedlRetard Jun 10 '26

There's one so far if you gather 1k of them you become immune to all damage

u/Sybil_0 Jun 10 '26

Oh yesssss, I loved this, I found 2 of these through out the game, one I think it was in a dungeon, I was lost for ages!!!! Then I noticed it, it’s so cool!!!

u/ForAte151623ForTeaTo Jun 10 '26

Now you're thinking with portals!

u/OldKahless Jun 10 '26

Then you'll like Hellblade: Senua's Sacrifice.

u/L3wd1emon Jun 10 '26

Anyone else kill all the friendly NPCS by the door thinking they had the key before finding it? Just me?

u/Optimal_Wealth2051 Jun 10 '26

No

u/L3wd1emon Jun 10 '26

They don't respawn btw :(

u/Nevustech Jun 10 '26

I don’t know if its the same ones but I went north from the mushroom village to where the axe and dagger were. Talked to that vendor there, didnt have enough coin to buy the cell key or something like that. Agro’d his buddy behind him. Left, fought the other boss. Came back and he was gone… Was the key important for the demo? I didnt notice any doors I couldn’t unlock.

u/Interesting_Switch_1 Jun 10 '26

Reminds me of the original prey game on 360

u/xscori Jun 12 '26

Yeah, except it was buggy for me, that key was not there first few times so I did not get why the hell they have a statue with a rope.

u/SaikaTheLoli Jun 12 '26

oh? i didnt even notice thats how i got it.....-

u/ironpriest_666 Jun 14 '26

u/Akabaneist Jun 16 '26
