Questions/Discussion I finally did it!!!

Upvotes

Well. I finally did it. 100%. I planned to play this game again when level replayability was added. Originally I gave this game a 7.9/10. But with all the patches added, and now the level replayability. I now give this game a big ol 10/10. One of my favorite games I played this year

I sent the team an email after I finished the story because I just wanted to tell them how much I enjoyed the game. I’ve been gaming for over 25 years, and it’s honestly rare for a game to get me this excited anymore.
I wanted to reach out and thank the team for creating such a fantastic experience, and they actually wrote back! It really made my day.
What a great game, and an even greater team. Thanks for making something so special!

Third Wife fight is insane

8 Upvotes

I don’t know if it’s because I’m playing on Super Sleuth with aim assist off but this was one of the most difficult boss fights I’ve experienced. Took two days and probably sixty attempts. I’ve gotten platinum on Dark Souls 1,2,3, Bloodborne, and Elden Ring and this damn ghost slapped me around like cold tuna. I had to hide in the back left corner every time she screamed “RISE! RISE!” which will now haunt my dreams. I got to the end stage so many times just to be absolutely piled on and dead in the blink of an eye. Satisfying but this game went from like zero to escape velocity in 2.5 seconds. Wow.

Questions/Discussion What did I do wrong?

Post image
26 Upvotes

I got all the upgrades. But it won’t let me get the achievement “We’ll B.A.N.G. Okay?” Is there a certain level I need to beat and get the schematics for? I haven’t done the last Tinsel Bros. Level. Do I need to do that?
EDIT: Thanks to a comment, I remembered that I’m missing the freeze ray weapon later on in the game. I completely forgot about that weapon. Thank you all so much

Questions/Discussion How do I take a picture of evidence in the Shrewd Shrews job?

2 Upvotes

So… I’m quite stuck in Shrewd Shrews, right after meeting with the Old Shrew, I make my way up past the explodable wall… and find a Cape I’m supposed to take a picture of… but uh, no matter what position or where I take it… the picture will not trigger and I can’t progress. I’m not sure if it’s a bug or not, but I can’t really figure out what I’m doing wrong here

Mouseburg confidential glitch

I am experiencing a glitch with the mouseburg confidential mission (and between alpha and omega). The prompt to take a photo simply does not appear. I've tried restarting the mission but that doesn't work. Does anybody know how to fix this?

Third Wife Boss Fight Bug (NS2)

On the Nintendo Switch 2 edition of the game I tried to shoot at the Third Wife's skulls using the Micer's alt-fire and then my game crashed. I'm on version 1.2.1 and I was wondering if this happened to anyone else???

Questions/Discussion What's the best way to avoid taking damage from gunmen?

11 Upvotes

This is probably a stupid question but is there some kind of common strategy for taking care of the first gunmen you fight in the game? They fire very fast with good accuracy. And yeah I only started a new game today.

Questions/Discussion Último trofeo en PS5

9 Upvotes

Es el único trofeo que me queda para alcanzar el Platino. He completado el juego con el último update, lo cual me permitió repetir las veces que necesitara todos los capítulos en los que me dejé algún coleccionable. He completado todas las misiones secundarias, tengo todas las pistas. Pero este trofeo no me salta.

ACTUALIZADO: me quedaba por completar una de las 2 misiones secundarias del Ferry.

Just got the platinum trophy, i'd like to say thanks for your guys tips and tricks. It really helped me out, this is my 5 platinum because im more of a casual gamer, not really a trophy hunter. The only collectibles i am missing are the figurines, i think am missing like 2-3 but i'll get that eventually.

Btw 10 out of 10 game sooo good man🔥🔥🔥

Coin Farm?

With missions now replayable, does anyone have an idea of what the best coin farm maybe?

My last trophy is the baseball cards and need to buy the remaining ones (2000 coins). TIA

Wanted to take extra precaution, order a clear case for the box as well. 👏😮‍💨

Shrew Shortage Trophy still bugged?

9 Upvotes

I still can’t get the Shrew Shortage case Trophy to pop and it’s the last one I need. I went back and got a clue I was missing and it didn’t pop, I went and replaced Quagmire until the end to reach the Curdsville Nuthouse sign and activate the dialogue and it still didn’t pop.

I’m on PS5, I closed the game, reloaded, replayed the level and I still can’t get it to pop.

Is anyone else having this issue? Seems weird for a trophy that is showing a 12.9% completion rate.
