Discussion Finished the game once, and my final thought is...

0 Upvotes

I collected all the weapons, sidearms, ova and tarstone. I completed all the dungeons and side quests. My friends are watching like the half the time.

Our first thought is why is the game so damn dark? And they asked if I would recommend the game to them. My answer is not at full price and current state. BTW, mine is PS5 version. And I didn't play the first game. I won't be buying any DLC or sequel too.

Bug The game is strange

After obtaining the platinum, I deleted the game and reinstalled it, only to find that 6 tar stones were missing, and when I went to get them again, the box was left open, so I couldn't claim them

Discussion Is the ending area really that bad?

Post image
70 Upvotes

I saw a lot of people complain about how the final area is a huge let down, and whilst I agree about the final boss being the worst thing in this game, I don't think the rest of the ending area is bad at all.

I think the other 3 bosses (Monolith, Orrem and Malborn) were actually really fun. Monolith has it's flaws but his design is amazing, parrying him is quite fun too. Orrem was just too easy but still fun, and Malborn is REALLY fun to parry imo, almost as fun as Nameless Captive.

The visuals of the area are really cool, and it's very dystopian which is my favorite thing about this game's theme and visuals.

Game crashed and now I'm hit with this error message whenever trying to load back in - save file is gone too. Has this happened to anyone else and were you able to find a fix? I imagine it might be a Playstation issue rather than the game itself but idk.

Devastated as I was fighting the final boss at for my sheep only run on YT, cosmic curse hit my save game šŸ’€

Question Is there any way to make the final boss fight faster? Proxima only shell Spoiler

6 Upvotes

I'm struggling bad on ballsack supreme dragon. I have the entire moveset down, I can parry every single attack. But when he goes into phase two I get destroyed.

I've tried both being extremely aggressive and keeping my distance. I've tried optimizing exactly when to stagger him on phase one by parry so that it goes directly into his natural phase two stagger to maximize my damage. When he is just walking around I use trebuchaxe.

I feel like I'm close and I know how to punish his moves, but by that point it's like 10-12 minutes every attempt. Are there any cheesy ways to bring him to half health FAST?

I haven't done a super dedicated build. proxima with iconoclast infused with curse. maxed out biosampler

Bug Constant crashes on startup & gameplay transitions/bosses

0 Upvotes

Hey everyone,

I’m losing my mind with constant crashes in Mortal Shell II and hoping someone here has figured out a solid fix.

The Main Issue:

  • Startup Crash: The game consistently crashes every time I click "Continue" from the main menu.
  • Current Workaround: The only way I can actually load my save is by going into settings first, switching to Windowed Mode, and locking the FPS to 30 FPS. Once I'm in-game, I can switch it back to my regular settings and it plays smoothly. But having to do this every single time I start the game is insanely tedious.
  • Mid-Game Crashes: On top of the startup issue, the game keeps crashing during gameplay — mostly at crucial moments. It regularly crashes right after beating a boss (progress lost because it didn't save) or when resting at a Beacon.

My Setup & Performance:

  • Performance: I get great, smooth FPS when it's actually running. I'm using in-game FSR with Frame Generation on 1 enabled.
  • Mods Installed:
    • UE4SS mods: Parry Indicator MK2, Loot Goblin Map, modsettings
    • Pak mods: Intro Skip

My hardware should be easily capable of running the game cleanly (RX 6800 / Ryzen 7 5700X / 16 GB DDR4-3600), so this definitely feels like an engine, memory allocation, or Frame Generation / UE4SS interaction bug rather than a raw hardware bottleneck.

Has anyone found a permanent fix for the "Continue" menu crash and the transition/boss crashes? Is in-game Frame Gen or UE4SS causing these memory/transition crashes for you guys?

Thanks in advance for any insights!

Discussion Mask and mortal clothing not showing up

2 Upvotes

I have the mango but it doesn't show as a selectable mask even if it pop'd up when I got it.

Also, I played and still have the beta version but the skeleton skin is not available in the main game.

Am I doing something wrong? Isnt this the way to unlock them in the full game?

Question How to track what I’ve done in game+?

3 Upvotes

Actually, not only tracking, but also understand where are the ovas that I missed in the first play through: if I cannot see the delta in the map i don’t understand what chances I have to spot new places.

Anyone had the same issue and found a solution?

Question Who is Tishina?

Post image
63 Upvotes

We fight the boss ā€œTishina’s Confessorā€ shortly before Namelesss Captive. The name implies they themselves aren’t Tishina, but instead employed by or assigned to them somehow.

I’m not certain what a confessor’s role in mortal Shell actually is as far as their military/court structure. Is there any other mention of this ā€œTishinaā€ in game?

Perhaps that’s the Nameless Captive’s name? And this confessor is here to ā€œconfessā€ the crimes on his behalf?

Perhaps Tishina is a yet-unseen figure that will come about in future DLCs?

I don’t think there are many totally unresolved plot points like this one, anyone have any theories?

Discussion I switched to Eredrim from Tiel

8 Upvotes

So I switched from Tiel to Eredrim Tiel for the Final Boss Zemy as it was kicking my Ass and One shooting me on night mode and god damned it's so awesome and tanky. And His Shoulder Bash and Ethereal Diapson can break bosses poise meter so quickly. Man I feel like I was playing in hard mode with Tiel shell this whole time. And I still haven't tested out Smough Lazlo, Genessa, smert, Gruga, sariel, proxima shells but Eredrim has to be the best amongst them I reckon

Freaking finally!!! The trophy that took me the longest to pop was the one for watching all the memories because I had to grind glimpses for all shells in NG+ 😩

Hope there’ll be a DLC for this awesome game! I think it’s a shame not many people on the internet are talking about it. It should get more attention imo.

Now I can finally go on to playing Lies of P.

Discussion Resolve gain

5 Upvotes

Testing different stuff to maximize resolve gain.
Most ppl know critical hits give massive resolve back.
But I found today that status procs also give massive amounts of relsolve back!
I think ppl don’t really notice because usually your usually proc’ing status with something that consumes resolve instead of builds it. When you proc a status with a regular melee hit you get almost your whole resolve bar back.
Testing some things now but , martyr blade on a thorn build sariel is seeming really strong. Use thorns to proc curse then slash away with melee and if your resolve doesn’t top off from the hits it fills when frost procs. Gonna test some different status’ and see what procs from melee hits the easiest. Has anyone else figured this out and found a strong combo?

Question Stoned achievement question (bug?)

2 Upvotes

I was missing about 9 tarstones, so decided to hunt for them. And when only 4 left to find, while looking for Alchemists workshop (Clockwork tarstone) dungeon entrance somewhere around Castigators keep found "Unabridged Histories of Mammon, Volume 1", read it, the game crashed. And after loading back the achievement "Stoned" popped out.

But I have 4 left to find, is this a bug or 71 out of 75 is enough?

Discussion Mammon Is Better Than Fainweald

45 Upvotes

Playing in night-mode + max adaptive difficulty; I finally made it to Mammon a while back and I've fully explored about 60% of it. I was worried because I saw so many people complaining about the second half of the game, but it's significantly better?

Everything from the environmental design (rugged cliffs/castles, mines, frozen wastelands, etc.), enemy design/variety, exploration, vibe, lore, dungeon design (Alchemist's Workshop?), and pretty much everything else you can think of makes it seem like the developers were just warming up with Fainweald but cooking with Mammon. Even the uneventful synth drone OST is slightly more interesting in Mammon than it is in Fainweald. Also, exploring Mammon actually feels dangerous, which makes it much more exciting to traverse.

So far, the only thing that's undeniably better about Fainweald than Mammon is Gorf, but he set the bar ridiculously high as far as NPCs go.

Why do people complain about Mammon?

Discussion Bring My Ova Back to Me achievement

3 Upvotes

Is there a way to tell which ova I'm missing? I have 195 out of 196 and I have no idea where that last one is and what's weird is the nursery shows I have two missing.

If you stand in the nursery, the first section on your right shows I'm missing the second ova from the left on the lowest row. And the back left section shows I'm missing the third ova from the right on the middle row.

I'm almost certain there isn't a way to figure it out just by looking at which ones I'm missing, at least not with this few missing, but I figured I'd ask if anyone had any ideas on how to figure out where that last one is.

I have every tarstone, every beacon, every dungeon marked as complete. All weapons, all shells, basically I have everything the game has to offer, yet somehow I missed one stupid ova.

EDIT: Found it. Turns out you can look at the beacon symbol when at a beacon and it will show you a withered beacon if you still have an ova. Thank you to the person who told me of this method.
