*SPOILER* Act 3 is kinda disappointing after replay

[Noob Fam]

*SPOILER* *again...*

When I first played this game, in Act 2 I picked P03 to take over, and when I saw that he actually takes over I was thinking "how would the other people look like?" and lo and behold at the end it shows me how the other scribes worked. I was particularly interested in, well all of them, even leshy. So I was really stoked to replay to that point.

But alas, I learnt on the web that P03 is the only one in act 3.

Don't get me wrong, I loved this game, but I would've loved some replay-ability especially after seeing that the other scribes actually have different ways of fighting. I thought it was saying at the end that the other scribes had different ways of fighting than same copy and paste throughout all.

Idk, maybe I just got my hopes up too much... But I'm still mad the game teased me like this because I love this game and I just wanted to play more :(


EDIT: yea, P03 was the evilest out of all of them... but still :(

Hi, just finished the game here.

I loved Grimora's and Magnificus' designs so much, I really wish I could fight them more. They have all these unique mechanics and art style, kinda weird to see that the devs put all that effort into these 2 scribes considering you only play against them for a few minutes.

Oh, and btw, I felt exactly what you described. I thought:

"wow, the other scribes look so cool, it's a shame they went by so fast. Let's try to replay act 2 picking a different scribe so I can fight the other scribes in act 3..."

Then I did the whole thing again and was negatively surprised to find out that P03 is all there is to act 3 lol.

Still loved the hell out of this game though, one of the best and most creative pieces I've played in years. I hope they let us play more against Grimora and Magnificus on a future DLC and/or sequel.

Yea haha, but I think that was the point the developers were trying to make. What if. But it sucks in this case because I really loved the game and really wanted to see!!! Fr I went through the five stages of grief after playing this game

I was more disappointed in how amazingly easy act 3 was. The only times I can remember dying were to the camera uberbot once and a bounty hunter who got a lucky hit off me and killed me.
You didn't really lose anything after dying, you just get dropped off to a tower and have to go back to the spot to recollect your cash. In leshy's act players are scared to lose because they'd have to start a whole new run again, making us WANT to try harder. The fights themselves weren't even that hard, it was just a stalling game till you could effectively send out offensive units.

Good point! But also, I quit when I died at leshy’s part because I had such a good deck :( but hey, I deserve it after dying twice because the game said I was moving too quickly! Rigged. Yea but at act 3 I didn’t even rly bother restarting the game

I mean it's because both characters wanted to make a completely different genre of game

Yeah, could be. Still sucks though haha. But hey, at least they gave us Kaycee's mod, been having lots of fun with that.

Really hope they give us more Grimora and Magnificus in the future.

A version of the Inscryption card game in real life would also be very cool!

Actually I theorize the creators had betas for all four card games they tested for themselves and decided that leshy's was the most enjoyable. Since they already had versions of it made as little minigames for the very end. So they made leshy the focus. Then they realized that the game would be too short so they made another version of inscryption to thicken the plot.

I did the exact same thing, choosing P03 in Act 2 and then replaying it only to see that Act 3 is the same every time. I really do hope they eventually hook us up with some DLC. A "Kaycee's Mod" for Act 3 is a no-brainer but cross your fingers for Magnificus and Grimora modes.

P03 wanted you to win act 3, that was the entire point. He wanted you to give him access by interacting with each boss so he could spread inscyption across the web. That is probably why he made it rather easy to keep pushing through the content.
