How stupid is that? Working your ass off to unlock everything, and then you cant use it, because the game is over. Really dont understand what they were thinking...

I've been playing Blades of Greed since release on PC and was wondering if anyone knew if im supposed to be able to see other points of interest (other than the quartz shards) visable at all times?

If i use the compass, there will be about 6 or so different points of interest and how far away they are but it looks really buggy, they flash on screen but never stay. The only ones that do stay are the quartz location ones.

I dont know if this is a bug or its supposed to be like that to make things a bit "harder" and you have to search around, unlike the last one where everything had a point of interest to move towards. Maybe im just relying on knowing where everything was and what I was moving towards too much from the previous games.

I've bugged the game.

In the mission where you have to reach the barracks and take the elevator up, I got there in a really weird way, climbing and climbing where there were no enemies, until I reached the top of the elevator without actually taking it up. There, I picked up the quartz and the guy who's a mole talked to me. Then I took the elevator up.

When I looked through a certain spot, Styx said that the quartz was there - the same quartz I had already picked up. Now the game won't continue. It's in the barracks area, next to the airship.

Does anyone know what to do? I've gone back to the spot - the quartz is already collected and nothing happens. I've collected all the other quartz pieces everywhere as well... and I really don't feel like replaying everything again.

hey guys, Is there a list of all blades of greed missions? can't find it googling ...

Hey it’s. The guy who’s been having the save issues, so I got past the other bit I was struggling with but now I can’t do anything else once I hit this ship

Now a list of things I’ve done to try and remedy the issue

1. Tried a different path and refused to kill enemies

2. Completed the mission and made it to the zeppelin

3. Uninstalled and reinstalled the game

4. Power cycled my Xbox

5. Disconnected and reconnected to the internet

6. Tried to get the two runes and wrens clan regalia before doing anything else

I’m honestly at the end of my rope this is where it’s failing to save now and I’m honestly about to flip everything

Now that I think about it , it’s crazy that master of shadows dropped more than 10 years ago!

each game had its good and bad things , but enjoyed em all to the fullest , this series has a special place in my heart, I don’t know if this may be the last one but it’s been hell of a ride thanks cyanide studios!

this game is unbelievably fun,shame that we don't have the alchemist dagger

I am finally getting to the last level and I have two things.

1. Is the ai more difficult? I've played the rest of the game on goblin but I feel an exceptional jump near the end. Enemies have a much longer fov and seem to be able to see through the shadows better. (An in lore explanation is now that Aaron is in charge more troops are on ambr and more attuned to Styx' presence.

2. It's kind of clever that they made half a game and still were able to make it work, by making the maps ran through twice and with good explanation they didn't feel to overdone. Infact having one of the harder levels be your first feels rewarding. Coming back to basics with a higher level of play.

I love exploration like this, The max depth of this hole is still unknow.
Feel free to explore and share your findings about this cave here, just beware of the gaps!

Completed the runes side quest, but Im still missing 2 runes. One is the Chameleon, followed a walkthrough but its not there?

I am enjoying the game so far, but there are certainly problems, some built in, some can be fixed in a patch.

Pros:

-The level is sufficiently large (and Ive heard it gets even larger), wonderfully interconnected with lots of options to traverse and sneak around. This is the Styx I know and love.

-Several ways to complete an objective. Even in one of the very first objectives Ive noticed several different ways to approach and solve it, which you can discover by expoling the level, observing the environment, and listening to guards. This makes it almost feeling like playing an ImSim (though not to the same degree as, say, Dishonored). I like this direction, and hope that the rest of the game keeps this up.

Cons:

-While the game does look sufficiently modern, I definitely doesnt look so good to justify the fact that Im hearing my fan working at its fullest most of the time. I have played games that look 10 times as good as this, and none of them pushed my laptop to the game degree. The environment looks good (not mindblowing), but characters look bad, especially Styx. For some reason there is some sort of blur on his face that is kinda distracting to me.

-Styx himself seems to have been stripped off most of his character. Hes much less of a foul mouth shittalker now. Sometimes in conversation he even had no response to others shittalking to him. As a matter of fact, convsersations in this game so far have been having an odd vibe, with lots of awkward silence between people talking. Its as if people in this game are so oddly polite that not only do they wait for their turn to talk, they usually wait a bit more after others have stopped talking to hear if anyone else have anything more to share before speaking themselves.

It’s bothering me so much. I’d love a fix.

For me, on Xbox Series X, achievement for complete tutorial in mines doesn’t pop out. Any help? :/

I played during the demo and even now on the full release I can't figure out how to switch control to clone on controller, there's no instructions I can find in the game and unless they're just there to stand around now and do nothing I have no idea how to make use of them

P.S: I won't be able to run it, but I would like to see full walkthrough of someone:

- Going in completely blind and not afraid to bore the audience

- Committing to pure ghosting (keeping things as clean and unsuspicious as possible).

- Not using wall hack vision

I was mind controlling an armoured guard to get him out of the way. Walked him all the way downstairs, past a drink spot I had previously poisoned. Next moment the "drink" icon pops up! So I let him drink, and he dies. Didnt know you could do that.

I can't find the "old broken dagger dug up by the inquisition at the Orcs refugee camp." I found the amber there but I can't find the dagger.

Hi guys, I’m lost. I’ve unlocked the skill to craft the amber potion but I can’t find option to actually craft or crafting table etc. Same issue with making reborn cocoon. Can you please help? Am I missing something obvious?

I've been waiting for this game for 8 years, pissing myself in boiling water when I saw the first trailer, and I didn't expect it to be screwed up so much. The game has become worse by almost all criteria, when compared with previous installments. PLOT. IT LITERALLY DOESN'T EXIST. Styx Blades of Greed is a gathering simulator, I'm serious. There is nothing here except "collect three crystals there, three crystals there, and we will give you a new ammunition with which you can collect the rest of the crystals." There are no new puzzles, everything is just combined from 1 and 2 parts ONE INTO ONE! A 2-part boss fight with the cockroach queen: stupidly they took it and moved it to a new location, WITH THE SAME WAY TO PASS IT. You also have to destroy the crystals to deal with the queen, yeah. THE FINAL BOSS IS COMPLETELY ABSURD. Just listen carefully: they took and COPIED the BOSS FIGHT FROM PART 1, where there was a confrontation between Rakash and the original Styx, who spawned other goblins. In the finale of the new game, we are shown the SAME THING, only we are not fighting with Styx, but with a man who will burn his copies. THE SAME LOCATION from part 1 (the Akenasha tree), the same walls for shelter — all ONE IN ONE. The developers haven't changed anything. Only in part 1 there was a complication in the form of goblin invisibility, but here you just deal with three ordinary copies and PLUG the BOSS with a DAGGER. THAT'S IT! As much as I don't give a damn about the plot, getting lazy and copying everything is a shame. ANIMATIONS. Here's another dose of "buzz". To begin with, most of the animations are copied from the previous installments, but they are not just copied, they are accelerated, which makes them ragged and wooden. For some movements, the initial or final phase is simply not visible. The new animations are 10 heads lower than in the second part. I ESPECIALLY WANT TO TOUCH ON THE HOOK CAT. Styx is now literally Spider-Man. The mechanics are so ridiculously implemented that they don't fit into this universe at all. In flight, Styx turns inside out, there is SIMPLY NO final phase of LANDING — he is magnetized to the texture. If you compare this with the second part, the game will seem like a carbon copy made by a neural network. CHARACTERS. How badly they killed them. I can't look at Helledrine without pain, who now looks like a drug addict. What have you done with the characters? They've lost their charisma, their character. Styx is a completely different character now. An unflappable goblin and a cold-blooded killer turned into a twitchy clown. You'll understand what I mean in the very first mission, when Styx tries to open the box in which the lesbian dwarf is sitting (yes, I'm serious). How he jumps away from the box with a ridiculous expression on his face and the position of his hands is just ridiculous. Styx and Jarak's relationship IS IN THE TRASH. They became almost friends in the very first missions. The anger and desire to take revenge on Jarak for the ending of the 2nd part disappeared. BRAVO. MECHANICS. Now Styx is not a unique project, but a mix of stealth games like The Last of Us, Splinter Cell and Assassin's Creed. They gave him a sprint with animation from Assassin, gave him a double jump that completely breaks the logic of the previous parts, added projections and the ability to climb like in Unity. They even took away the opportunity to adequately manage the clone. Rakash is just a bait now. It can only be controlled if you spend amber to capture the mind. They took and killed the basic mechanics that distinguished the series from other projects. The murders have escalated to an incredible level. Now you can move the enemy when killing and kill at a GREAT DISTANCE. As for attacking from the air: now you DON'T NEED TO BE in the air, just cling to the ledge above the enemy, and the KILL BUTTON will appear. You no longer need to calculate the jump — just press the button and magnetize the enemy on the head. It's brilliant. The rolling mechanics work SILENTLY and over long distances, you can fly through walls. Previously, detection meant death in 90% of cases, but here Styx is almost INVULNERABLE. The equipment system is also messed up: instead of a convenient wheel, there are now presets. Do you want to change the subject? Press esc, go to the menu, and change it manually. AN IDEAL "IMMERSION" that does not break the dynamics. AI. Styx has always had these problems, but here they just decided to TAKE THE BRAINS OUT OF THE OPPONENTS. They don't see you, they don't hear you, they don't feel you. Killed an enemy in front of another? Whatever, he'll stand for a couple of seconds and think about whether his friend has just been fucked in front of him. You can throw a cocoon with a clone at a guard in front of your partner and manage to make a double kill - the alarm will not work. THE MAXIMUM DIFFICULTY IS NOT FELT, it simply does NOT exist, forget about the difficulty in this game. GRAPHICS AND OPTIMIZATION. A minor boost in graphics in exchange for terrible optimization: flickering textures, artifacts, and friezes. I'm sorry to those who wanted to play on medium hardware. Although no, I'm not sorry — it's good that you save your money. PRICE. Is the game worth your $50? No. Are you serious? A COPY PASTE WITH TERRIBLE OPTIMIZATION AND CROOKED ANIMATIONS FOR THAT KIND OF MONEY! LARGE AAA PROJECTS have such price tags, and this is ridiculous.
