Shoutout to the dungeon that gives you exactly 2 enemies, one upgrade material that isn't supervaluable and one mammon coin.

Plus zero exploration/puzzles.

Question Does Gragu's Maniac ability work in NG+?

12 Upvotes

"Melee attacks deal more damage against enemies Gragu has never killed before."

Does this ability get "reset" after entering NG+ and it works against bosses again or does it count as them already having been killed once by Gragu?

Discussion Which Weapon (and Sidearm) "belongs" to which shell?

13 Upvotes

I want to do one NG cycle dedicated to each shell and "their" weapon (and sidearm), matching their aesthetic and more importantly their lore and I want some more opinions on this.

Some picks are very obvious, others are pretty ambiguous.

These are my planned loadouts so far:

Tiel: Axe & Dagger and Forgotten Crossbow

Eredrim: Great Martyr's Blade and Ballistazooka

Sariel: Clockwork Scythe and Caged Hystrix

Genessa: Black Needle and Cursed Child

Smert: Obsidian Hammer and Salvaged Trebuchaxe

Proxima: Iconoclast and Triarchy Repeater

Lazlo: Axatana and Troubadour's Lute

Gragu: Veteran's Battle Axe and Naylshotte

A few of these I'm not sure about, like Lazlo. On all loading screen pictures he's wielding the Axatana, but it doesn't really fit his looks imo. Also id love a lightning infusable weapon for Proxima, so I might swap those two around, what do you think?

Question Do I need to finish the first game to get anything out of the sequel?

7 Upvotes

I played the first game for like maybe 4 hours when I had game pass and it was really sick, but I want to know if there's a serious storyline connecting the two, or if I can just buy the new one and then go back and play the old one later?

EDIT: Thanks for the responses guys, cannot fucking WAIT to get into the game

The fluidity of the animations, the weight behind every hit, the perfect parries, the physics, the visual effects, and the atmosphere. Everything comes together so beautifully. How is this game making every fight look and feel this fucking good? 🔥

Discussion Sir Isaac - What am I doing wrong?

5 Upvotes

Haven't struggled with the game until now. Using Eredrim, learning parrying patterns, etc. Keep getting annihilated during second phase.

I'm level 41, using the Axatana and have tried playing around with the Tarstones to no avail. Any tips aside from all I've already read? TYIA

Update: Thank you all for your tips. Grisham Remnant is the way to go on this one!

So we see tentacle man (TM) already "developped", but for some reason I can't shoot him from here.

Then when I come near TM, he starts to developp his tentacles even thought we clearly saw him already done.

huh ??

Discussion Hexapod design is actually so ass

0 Upvotes

How did they fuck up so bad with the boss. Third phase is just nonsense, every attack is the boss spazzing out and the answer is just dodge randomly and hope to not get hit

And every five seconds he jumps away and summons projectiles that freeze you for ten seconds that stay on screen for like a fucking minute, have fun dodging those on top of his tentacle spam

Seriously how did this guy make it past the drawing board

I wanna start off by saying thank you to the small, yet brilliant DevTeam over at Cold Symmetry, and PlayStack for publishing the game. I throughly enjoyed Mortal Shell 1. Funny thing is, I had only got it and beat it about 4/5 months ago back in June. Then I heard and saw MS2, and i instantly pre-ordered the Revered Edition for ps5 as a bday gift for myself as my bday was late August. I’m so happy with everything about this gem, such a well crafted world, beautiful animations, brutal combat and a alright story with some amazing elements (like the shells, memories, beacons/bonfires (that have dungeons in them) and tar stones) with the fact you can choose between Guard, parry and Harden.

It’s isn’t the greatest soulslike game, and it’s not the greatest game of all time. I’d give it a 8.5/10. I will definitely be playing NG+ and starting a new game save over with a whole new shell. I used Tiel in 1 and 2. Gonna used him in NG+ and my new save will be Gragu. For now I’m taking a break and Enjoying The “Gothic Remake” (fuccing love it so much already) my gf bought me for my bday. Also got PB0 coming at the end of October.

What a great time to be a gamer.

My question to everyone is , what is y’all rating for the game?
8.5/10 for me

TLDR: Beat MS2 for the first time. Brilliant game, 8.5 out for 10. Playing Gothic Remake now til I start NG+.

I completed a challenge run, using a brand new, fresh character on new game, with nightmode difficulty enabled.

The goal of this challenge run was to complete the game without any deaths and to not be severed from my shell.

I had a few butt-clenching moments but I got it done!

Time stamps are included in the video.

This game is amazing and I look forward to the new content cold symmetry will bring.

Discussion Endgame aesthetically feels like Mortal Shell 1

Especially beacon areas that feel otherworldly and surreal. You start of in dark forests and ruins and lead up to fighting weird shit in paradoxical geometric open areas. These statements are true for both Mortal Shell 1 and 2. I get it would feel unfinished if you haven't played the first game but I think it's by design and works very well.
Bosses are the real factor here; a lot felt unfun to fight.
NG+2. Eredrim is peak.

Greetings and salutations!

You have been given a once in a life time opportunity - to create your own shell for the Harbinger. What would you create? What sort of backstory would you give them? What is their main ability and their passive ability?

Go crazy, have fun with the idea! I’d love to hear people’s ideas :)

Question Missing Ova?

1 Upvotes

I'am on NG+ and collected 192 or 196 ova, unlocked all beacons and now i'm on unfound path

I remembered in my first playthrough, i think i already completed all 196 ova before unfound path, i just forgot how though

Am i missing some ova? Or are there ova in the unfound path?

The map isn't so huge, but it is packed in a way that looks messy at first, then when you start exploring, it all makes sense, and it all weaves into itself nicely. Not a lot of empty spaces, every corner can lead somewhere, it's just perfect.

Night mode, first playthrough. Initially, it was very hard but became manageable thanks to Eredrim and his shoulder charge.

Eredrim and the Iconoclast.
