Ghost Dog chase

[Reggieraft]

So I found the mock disc shrine. I know I can teleport to have a shortcut, but I keep taking damage.
Am I still missing something? Or is it just trial and error/pretty frustrating?

You need to plan a route and practice getting through the rooms without slowing down or making mistakes. If you are going to teleport, wait in the hub for a minute for the cat to show up. That will give you about 20 seconds of peace to do the last 4 or 5 rooms. When you get consistent, the cat should stay behind you until the last obstacle.

I also recommend opening your inventory to change items or to take a minute to think about what you need to do next.

You were supposed to be chased while getting that?
I guess I skipped that whole chase by getting the item early.

You didn't put the mock disc into the cat shrine then?

I started that bit and realized how annoying it was after one attempt. I just went through all of it without the disc to see what it was like and then somehow I got the mock disc without having the annoying dog chase.

We aren't talking about the ghost wolf in the dog area?
And I had the Mock Disc before going to the wolf head shrine that had the real Disc.
So when i got the real Disc I never got chased.

Edit: Scratch what I said before.
I think I know the part you did and it actually wasn't that bad lol.

This part of the game is super annoying. Worst part of this otherwise great game so far

oh there is more bs to come. there shouldn't have been this type of gameplay. the controls are too clunky for fast inputs

Biggest problem is if he chooses to float around the wrong area he can just interrupt your movement and cranking and you're ♥♥♥♥♥♥

Just dont pick up he disc. Go normally through that area and leave the disc aside. At the end you will find the mock disc. Then you can go pick up the real disc and directly replace it with the mock one.

[bugbird]

You do have to pick up the mock disc later in the game. This thread concerns that, not when you first stumble into the dog disc area.

OP, I kept making the mistake of running and then trying to perform the teleport song. You have to stay in the room where you take the m. disc and proc the ghost chase for the teleport song to work.

I will say, I had success with ignoring the crank room all together during the long run to the flame shrine.

It was a very easy run once you know the best route. If done right the dog wont even touch you.

they're not clunky at all lol, they're incredibly tight.

Yeah dude repeatedly cycling through 9 or however many subtools, some of which are mandatory for movement and some of which are visual only, while the entire rest of the controller is unused is actually optimal and not tedious. Love the game but blind defence is moronic.

[Mandrill]

the inventory switching clunk is real. You can open the item menu though (Y-Button / Triangle) on controller and choose your tools there. It also stops the time. So as this disrupts the flow, its less stressful

[McFrugal]

Once you have more than 4 or 5 items you basically have to use the inventory to switch items. Switching through 9 items once by one just won't work (I hope the user two posts above this isn't actually doing that)
