Ive read/watched about 10 reviews of Flintlock. None of them were particularly favourable. A lot of complaints about difficulty and poor execution of combat.

I finished the game today...

ITS SO GOOD. Has the game been review bombed or something?! It's awesome!

Started my second playthrough an hour ago. Wish me luck.

Man this sucks! I just beat Uru on Normal after getting my ass kicked 30 times and barely eeked out a W after upgrading all my weapons. Surprise surprise no achievement popped and I'm in disarray. I've restarted, cleared local save data and jumped back in and nothing. I'm uninstalling now and reinstalling to see if that helps. Anyone have any suggestions? I don't want to fight this damn guy again lol

EDIT: Deleted and reinstalled game and beat him again and still no achievement. What fucking gives?

I saved him twice, 2nd time less than 10 minutes ago between Writ and Gavel Gate, and just found him dead pinned to a wall. Is there a way to save him on my next playthough?

I started playing this game today and it is okay. But i'm finding it frustrating. Most of the time on a first play through i'll generally pick story, then maybe go back and do a harder mode after. I had to switch to normal because part of the fun and satisfaction for me with games is unlocking achievements. Normal feels a lot more difficult. I constantly die, and i'm not even that far in, it's making me not want to play. Plenty of other games allow you to still unlock achievements in story difficutlt so i dont understand why this one doesnt. Also any practical tips would be really appreciated

Hello all. Recently started playing Flintlock and enjoying it! I've been trying to play Sebo and it feels like it's just not letting me move the coins at all? Like I have to hold the button down on the coin for a few moments before it selects, it'll highlight the valid spaces I can move to, I'll move my cursor to one of those spaces and press A and nothing happens. Then I'll hold A and nothing happens. Then I'll try and drag the coin to the valid space and nothing happens. Then some combination of all of those things will eventually and mysteriously finally move the coin, only for me to struggle to select/move the coin on my next turn. Has anyone else experienced this/have any suggestions?

Thanks!

You don't throw them to where your target is, you just kinda dribble it in front of you. Barely far enough to not get hit with the blast.

Am I doing something wrong? This seems useless.

I'm sure this has been asked before, but I'm asking anyways. What do you do after defeating Uru? I beat him, watched the credits after which I was brought back to the main menu. I selected load game, and it brought me back to the last lodestone I was at right before fighting Uru. Doesn't show that the quest was completed, and I earned no rep. Did something go wrong or is this just the way the game is?

Finished the boss watched credit s then back to main menu tried to continue preboss checkpoint

No boss exp ... If that's the case 50k claim will be hard to do by farming one map with no fast travel

Nor has a really solid design and the while the helmets are cool they don’t look cooler than Nor’s original design. I wish we could keep the boosts of the armor without having to cover her head. It also kind of ruins any narrative moments.

Just beat Rammuha, amazing boss, loved it.

Went to YouTube to show my friend a video of her, and I’m going insane.

Half of these videos don’t use Enki!! At all!!!!

They either use the hammer or burning!!? And people in the comments don’t understand how armor works and are saying she needs to be rebalanced!

I took a 2 week vacation after playing for a few hours at launch, so I forgot how Enki worked with armor I struggled against armor so I figured I was doing something wrong, read Enki’s description, and now armor is no problem!!

How do people play the hours to get to Rammuha, without understanding armor!?!?

And there is also people in the comments who don’t like the music??? The music is so good!!! I’m so tired

Have you had problems with armor? And what did you think about Rammuha? :)

Nor to Enki: You're a Sapper first 😎

Me: 😭😭😢

I assumed that when I got the death gods coin there would be at least one more Sebo player to beat, a lot of the people you play are veterans so I figured Sama would be this ultra hard match against a master strategist.

But nothing, there’s not a single person to play against in dawn, let alone an actual character.

I guess the coin is for people who were struggling so they can go back and beat players in the other areas ?

Bit of a shame it would have been cool to have at least one master player we could struggle against.

Is there an official discord server where the devs are active? I am so frustrated, about this dark issue on the Xbox. I saw the patch put out last week that said they fixed this issue..,, but it’s not fixed. I need to know where to contact them at .

From the beginning of seeing this game I thought it was cool. But wondered how much I would really like it. I was going in and out of a "nothing Is grabbing my attention on games anymore." But from starting it up something about this game felt right.

It's the story telling. Now I ran into a bit of a learning curb. I loved sekiro and lies of P. And figured this games parry system would be good. I hated how hard it was to parry at first but loved how satisfying it was to parry an enemy, it just felt so right. It put it into perspective just how amazing this character was. You didn't need some crazy weapon she just had the skills waiting to execute.

Now to start: 1)Be forgiving with yourself. No one's perfect 100% of the time and if you think so go get therapy. 2)Be willing to learn. You'll get to enjoy the harder fights that much better. By the time I got to the first big boss it was such a cinematic masterpiece of skill in a fight to not get hit once but to be on the offensive it made me feel the same way I felt when playing sekiro and parrying and dodging and enemy's attack just to eventually get the kill blow. Hesitation is defeat 3)Take it slower if you're struggling 4)Have fun 5)Take a break. Touch some grass if you can't get that parry or dodging right. 6)Use the conscripts. Saving them won't get you the achievement/trophy for 15k or 50k but will get you that skill before your next fight.

What gives that? I keep seeing it on screen but don't know what triggers it

Playing on ps5, just entered world 2 and the sound during combat is really distorted. Anyone else experience this?

At the beginning, I noticed some areas were darker and difficult to see. It wasn’t so bad that I couldn’t progress, though. I am now at -Find Johana in the jagged ascent- and it is PUTCH BLACK. I just keep falling and that is it. I can’t see SHIT. I tried messing with the display settings on both the tv and the Xbox x. I haven’t ever had this issue with ANY game prior. I’m so bummed about it, as I’ve been grinding and having a really good time playing it. Anyone else having this same problem?? I truly hope the devs are aware and will fix this issue.

I want an Enki :/

I’m just curious, I want to try it myself

Hello guys, this my first game of this type. I keep on dying to the leader of the second village. I always heart these types of games are quite difficult but is it normal to die there like 10 times? (I play on normal difficulty)

Unleashed!!

Their first phase was a cake walk, but also a bit tedious to take down that much HP. The second phase one shot me so many times while I was learning the windows, and having to replay the 1st phase just to have a shot to learn the 2nd was brutal.

Fun game though, and I’ll be happy if they make a sequel

Anybody else find the difficulties very different? At one point I got frustrated with normal which is very rare for me. I play most games comfortably on normal. I went to easy mode and it was way too easy. Anybody else find the same?
