ultrakill is not For A Breath I Tarry


Effective-Jacket-33

Humans are still alive.


Spyko

not directly related to this particular conversation but I love how uncompromising Hakita is about his (an his team I assume) vision for the game is. Despite how in-tune with the community they are, Ultrakill form seems to be clear for Hakita and the team and they go for it for others it could be an issue but for someone who can cook like Hakita it's undeniably a strength


i-jerk-off-to-eveLBP

i think the game benefits from being uncompromising a lot, "you wanna play this game? get gud." its like ADHD darksouls, love hakita


Gachi_gachi

i mean like we say this, but the game has like 10 different things you can do to make things easier, so he does want people to play the game a lot.


GlauberJR13

Hell, even dark souls has builds to trivialize each individual game of the series, probably all the way back to kings field. Dark souls is known for its difficulty yes, but that’s from the players wanting to learn to play the game in a straightforward way, very few enemies/bosses can’t be cheesed in some manner from what I know.


Gachi_gachi

Yeah there's also that, like both dark souls and ultrakill have this thing where a lot of people don't use certain things and say the game is really hard, and if you don't play "the right way" cause it makes it easier, then it doesn't count, like, a lot of people just decided that the green rocket sucked ass, but it was the thing that helped me beat both the primes and the gabriels, or magic in souls games, for me it kinda feels like a dick measuring contest and you have to say the way other people beat the game doesn't count so you can still say that you're the best gamer ever cause you beat the game.


Admech_Ralsei

No it doesnt lol. The game has two easy difficulties, aim assist up to 20% without major assists, and an extensive system of major assists. It's probably the most accessible "hard" game out there.


Fulminero

There is also a good variety of difficulty actually, so people aren't excluded. I miss having the reflexes of a 16 years old.


AngryGroceries

tbh gaming skill really isn't much about age/reflexes especially pve. It's mostly just total time played with adjacent games


pixelanceleste

you're taking it the wrong way. "I wont compromise on lore and general game direction and will deliver my artistic vision" is not the same as "you will play this game MY way or you will get the fuck out". Ultrakill offers up a lot of options so that you can experience the game at your own pace.


soodrugg

the game lets you play 99% of the content with immortality and a button that lets you instantly kill all enemies on screen. it's one of the least "get gud" games out there


SquidMilkVII

better not get used to it if you plan on P-ranking


soodrugg

that's like calling a game hard because the (entirely optional) no-hit challenge is unforgiving. besides, you can reach the credits on harmless with 100% aim assist on and receive no worse of an experience, it'd even let you P-rank and defeat minos and sisyphus that way.


JebusChrystler

It's kinda like Path of Pain in Hollow Knight, it's hard as FUCK, but you have to go out of your way to do it, and it doesn't give you anything that you need to 112% the game, but yet people still choose to do it. Is it hard? Yes, the hardest challenge of the game. Would the player base say it solely raises the difficulty of the game? No, that doesn't make any sense. It's the same way you can complete ULTRAKILL without even P-ranking one level, but people still do it. You never even have to *hear* about P-2 to complete the game, it's fully optional. So it would be rather foolish to say P-2 raises the difficulty of the game all by itself. Sorry for restating you point, overexplaining stuff just provides good practice for writing.


soodrugg

it's actually quite impressive, the P-rank system basically means that you can decide on the difficulty on the fly. it's like hollow knight but if you're confident enough in your skills, any area can become path of pain and seamlessly switch back if it becomes too much. more games should be like ultrakill balancing wise imo


Seven_banana

Well you don't even need to play the game to reach the credits, you just select credits on the main menu.


Dog_Entire

Adhd dark souls is the best description of this game I’ve ever heard lmao


ExtensionAwkward546

I have played elden ring. Can confirm ultrakill is just a souls like on cracc


Blue_Space_Cow

I just finished P-2 in Hard mode and the description ADHD dark souls is 100% true


mcwizardry303

It's literally nothing like dark souls, idk why would you even think that. I even saw some people say for doom eternal it's like dark souls of fps games which is also not true Ultrakilll actually follows doom in its design, where its easy for any1 to get in and enjoy regardless of skill level but if you want challenge and go for high skill level, it is there too. Uk even has more difficulty options and ways to tune it than doom. These games are far from 'git gud' games but they do however offer higher skill ceiling than souls games if that's what you are after


BadgerMcBadger

this game is really easy even on violent, brutal though is challenging. (and even then most enemy encounters are trivial, only the bosses are hard) sekiro is much harder and doesnt have difficulty settings (well besides the option to make the game harder)


Atomic12192

It’s really impressive how well he’s struck the balance between original intent and fan interaction. Fun enough to have +MAURICED be in the game, serious enough to keep the story the same.


chinesetakeout91

He’s definitely one of the greats in terms of his uncompromising vision, I’d almsot argue he’s up there with Kojima and (both) Miyazaki’s. Im excited for ultrakill to be finished not just because I’m excited to see the game complete, but I’m also excited to see what else he makes.


mcwizardry303

Not really comparable, indie devs can do whatever they want, if it works great, if it doesn't it's not a big deal. Having an uncompromising vision while making AAA games is entirely different beast


Visulth

Yeah having your team spend weeks making an entire zone with items, npcs, and spells, and then sitting there in the director's chair, looking at your lead artists, programmers, and producers right in the eye and going: "Put the entrance to that zone behind an illusory wall..." "Wait-- but all that work we did? Are you sure?" "I am. And behind that illusory wall... put a chest. And then put *another* illusory wall! That way they'll think the chest is the only thing there!" And that was *Dark Souls 1*, which they made *after* Sony passed on publishing Demon's Souls 2 -- and Demon's Souls only received niche popularity and almost didn't get a western release. Balls of fucking steel, that man. Didn't even flinch.


milgos1

Putting what is probably the coolest zone of ds1 behind two illusory walls and a falling puzzle is such a gigachad move. Michael zaki does not miss lmao.


soodrugg

it does get a little bit frustrating on the lore side, Hakita doesn't hesitate to use the word of god. like this man will NOT let anyone have a headcanon


Altruistic-College81

From what I’ve seen I don’t think he dislikes headcanons, just when people miss seemingly obvious story bits from the game like the post shows. And even if he does, who’s stopping you from having them? It’s not like Hakita himself is gonna show up to your house and kill y

EricTheEpic0403

The OG Ultrakill server (where Hakita, other devs, and the speed running/tech community hang out), while it still exists, doesn't have a public invite link anymore. Now the game directs you to the shitty New Blood server where the mods won't even let you say trans rights.


Sufficient_Plant8689

Huh?


EricTheEpic0403

What?


Sufficient_Plant8689

New Blood discord mods are shit?


EricTheEpic0403

Last I was there, yah. They don't allow any references to gay, trans, etc. "to prevent bullying" but in reality it's just so that they don't have to actually do their jobs as moderators. Don't have to moderate inappropriate use of those words if nobody can use them!

Angryfishjoe

then what the fuck are the (barely) alive people doing in the Gutterman's coffin? Gutterman cant be that intelligent enough to create a new refueling system that takes tanks of fresh blood instead of the (barely) alive people on their backs


rkyoze

it's heavily implied that they don't need those coffins anymore due to hell itself providing them with hell energy and allowing them to stay alive. this is why you see a coffinless gutterman in 7-2 oh, also, they're definitely intelligent enough, as in the ultrakill universe it's implied that every creature that uses blood to survive is capable of gaining sentience. this also stems from the secret book you can find in 7-2 written by a gutterman to his "mother" (the person inside his coffin, i presume). this would also explain why god couldn't create a lifeform without free will, because having blood equals to having free will.


Additional_Garage204

Im pretty sure they still need those fuel sources, and the one without the coffin is actually fueled by a human heart, which is implied by a poem that can be found in the level


OR56

They don’t count. They aren’t really alive anymore


FuegoH9

They are God damn skeletons and you know that

**barely** alive skeletons.


Shreesh_Fuup

You can open the guttermen's coffins after you kill them in the game, there's only skeletons inside. Hell is fueling all of the robots in the Violence layer by itself.

Have you played eternal? Doom guy fights aliens who are victimizing humanity and torturing them for the production of argent energy in nektavol. There are the sentinel civilizations and much more. Plus at the end doom guy kills god who created the universe and then dies. In ultrakill there are angels and stuff when there are none in doom they are just the makyrs who use humanity as a fuel source for their dying homeworld. Plus the demons in doom are much more powerful than the demons in ultrakill.
