Platforming or Gestral Beach

[Nelo]

Devs. Platforming is by itself a decent way to stimulate the player. But when you design the whole zone like that one slippery log in Blight Town - its aint a good decision. Typical edge bounce, vaseline coated surfaces and not working correctly\intentionally disabled pull-up.

yeah the two gestral beaches i've been to, have both been terrible. the second one is a very very bad volleyball minigame, where if you miss once its over.

5 times, not once.

The beach volleyball minigame is just annoying... not fun at all, especially since how weird, unresponsive and delayed the animation is... sometimes missing one is just enough, cause before you recover from the animation you get another hit, but since you already started the animation for the next attack, you miss another and another and that's it... Well it is only for a cosmetic, but anyway, not fun at all...

I never liked 3d platformers with rare exceptions (Mario and Zelda games) and especially not in RPGs.

Just stay on the left side of the log.
Personally I felt like they could have put more stuff in that zone.

Also I could go for more combat related rewards, and less stuff weird cosmetic stuff.

Any tips for the volleyball minigame? It's by far the worst part of the game, and I just can't seem to win the last one. It's so frustrating — the animation is so slow that if you miss even once, you're basically done. I'd really love to get the costume, but honestly, this is just stressful and not fun at all. I'm seriously thinking about just skipping it.

For the volleyball, hit the button around when they pause in mid-air before going fast, the wave from your attack normally hits them and just be facing the side they're going to land on, rather than running to each location.

Wait until the 3rd one......

Worst mini-game ever... unresponsive, not fun, horrible camera angles. Fail once, and you're almost guaranteed to fail again due to the slow response time. The game designer behind this mini-game has created a torture device that would be highly praised in hell.

The moron who designed the volleyball mini game should burn in hell. The camera placement is just horrible, the animation lock is disgusting. It could be so much better...

Platforming is the game that awakens what is inside you :)

PS There is a second mini game with platforms
the second could be sold as an indie game

Can confirm these are the worst part of the game. Overall this game has been amazing and yet these--SPECIFICALLY the volleyball minigame--have me SCREAMING. I was able to complete all 3 levels but dear god it is unresponsive, hard to see and completely inconsistent.

Honestly, save your energy and don't play it. You only get Sciel's bathing suit cosmetic.
