Apparently you don't, but that's just what someone else said. I was hoping it would be a later addition. Thankfully so far it's not TOO big but I definitely agree on wanting one.

That moment lead to an instantaneous "why can't I always use this ability?!" thought in how strong and enjoyable it was.
My partner has a disability and they've told me so much about their childhood and how they were mocked even when they made their best shot.
The intro destroyed me. I was in tears.
I'm legit shocked there's no talk about the intro or about the game's commentary on disability in this thread.

no but you can see where there are coins missing in the menu
there's barely any stealth there since you can

Yeah the game's intro was very strong, the last game that had an intro that was pretty emotionally moving was Ori.

What're your PC/Laptop specs? Try ticking 'Disable DPI' in the game's .exe's Properties and see if it'll run then.

This game is really, really good. I played a little bit last night to the point where
(not really a spoiler), and it just charmed the hell outta me. Multiple times I caught myself thinking, "This game actually feels like it's had 8 years of work and polish put into it."
How often can you say that?

That unfortunately did nothing. I don't think it's a spec issue, I'm running Windows 10 on an i5 4670 and a GTX770. If it's the same issue as Stardew Valley I've seen some suggestions that it's related to XNA and .NET but I've tried reinstalling the XNA redist several times already and Windows 10 won't even let me reinstall .NET as it is apparently part of the OS now.

Can I go back to previous areas? I noticed I haven't found all the coins in previous levels.

The pixel art in this game is beautiful, and the music is simply sublime. I'm loving this so far.
Have you tried starting it in compatibility mode?

Owlboys surprise face cracks me up.
Ive had an itch lately for a 2D game and I decided to get Ori: DE for £3 (cheap because I already own the original) and this due to the reviews. Ive just finished
and its easily GOTY material so far. I expected something much like Ori where youre given an intro and basic story and then left to your own devices but this is much more story and character focused, both of which have been great so far. Tbh everything has been great so far, the OST, artstyle and level design, the variety, the humour, up to now im not surprised at all at the 9 and 10 scores. Very impressed.
The intros fantastic, it does a brilliant job of introducing and eliciting empathy for Owlboy and displaying the relationship with his mentor all within about what? 2 minutes? The track that plays here is stunning as well. Better intro than Ori imo, which was good but dragged on a bit when the outcome was so predictable.

My only complaint is I'm in the
area and I feel like the game is giving me carpal tunnel syndrome. The green guy fires twice as fast if you pump the trigger, and there's pretty much back to back bosses where it's required. I had to stop as my hand is killing me.

I didn't expected what happened in

Otus is very expressive, I was surprised by the level of details on the animations.
Advent. I thought the were just going to blow up the Dreadnought and be done with it.

Hearing 8-10 hours roughly
Thats very decent if so
Yeah, I've tried every compatibility option there is.
EDIT:
Well, I managed to fix the issue so in case anyone else has a similar issue here's what my problem was: Apparently X3DAudio1_7.dll exist in both 32 and 64 bit versions, and somehow things have gotten mixed up on my PC and the game is loading the wrong one. I can't seem to fix it in the Windows folder, but by placing the proper .dll file in the game folder everything is working fine. Admittedly, that's a very specific issue so I don't think there will be a lot of people with my particular issue.

I think I missed a room in the water temple.
There are two doors shortly after you team up with the pirate where one closes after you enter, and I went into that one first. I actually got angry because there are so many similar doors that dont do that. The timer should have clued me in though.

I've read an interview with Simen in a Norwegian newspaper that dealt with this part of the game. I remember he said something like: "We want the player to really get a feel of being put to side by those around you, and the fear of not being liked."
It's obviously one of the central themes of the game

The characters have the sort of charm I remember from the classic LucasArt games.

I have a bug after
where my poor Otus was spit into an infinite nothing, only with a sky background. The save identifies me as being in the
, but I can fall forever or fly in any direction and never get anywhere. Reloading the save or restarting the game doesn't change it so it seems like a game breaking bug. Anyone else experience?

Just beat the Owl Temple. I'm more engaged in the story/characters than I would've expected. Surprisingly this is one of the strongest points of the game so far. Gameplay-wise I haven't been that impressed yet.
I do hope you can warp or fast travel to all places again at some point because my ocd is going to kick in with these coins, I need them all

Definitely. This is far more emotionally touching and engaging than "Ori." I thought the story in "Ori" was merely cute. Nothing more, nothing less.

Man this looks the business, any news on whether this will come to console?
Finished this today. Loved it, loved the music most of all, but the art style and design was really top-notch.
Would love more from this team, they know their stuff.
I'm missing tons of coins, and couldn't get the other two owl coins or complete the cannon challenge but I'd love to try it again and find this stuff, see if that changes things.

I almost want it just for the pixel art. Also the music.

I'm waiting for full impressions. Game looks gorgeous but even a strong start can lead to a weak finish.

I can't for the life of me control the
minigame. It may have something to do with the fact that I am an "inverter" in other games, I don't know. I generally want to do the opposite of what the game is telling me to do, and there's no way to just practice. I had to just give up so far. Anyone else feel this way?
cannon
it's practice, really. I had to try a lot of times before i was comfortable enough to get all the rings
Anyone have tips on this puzzle? I absolutely can't stand timed puzzles, I get way too stressed out and end up breaking stuff.
Pheeew that was intense, the lights kept going out even when they weren't completely down, so had to keep lighting them earlier so the progess was slow but managed in the end.
EDIT: Damn, tried to spoilertag the image.

Light the candles with Alphonse, then latch on to the pendulum with LT and drag it round. If you can't get all the way round in time, drop it, then relight the candles.
Don't do what I did the first time round and shoot the pendulum to make it move round!
