Child of Light |OT| Beware the Night
- Thread starter iNvid02
- Start date
Just finished. Favorite game I've played all year. Sure the rhyming is a bit weird but I think people owe themselves the chance to play this game. There is more atmosphere in one screen of Child of Light than any next Gen title I've played so far. It's endearing, the music is fantastic, the battle system is interesting enough that I was still into it with the last boss. Aurora is a real heroine and it's rare to see such a well formed character in a short game like this.
I could go on and on but I think my heart may make dew.

Yes. Don't start a new game plus if you want to complete all the side quests on the first playthrough. It has that super shitty combo of an autosave-only one save slot system coupled with a save-corrupting bug.
Love the game, though; hope it pays off for them. Which must be hard to manage when you have about 100 people mentioned in the credits for a project like this...

Loving this game so far. Just got all the companions and I love the variety.
I'd love more games like this to come out. Battle system is awesome and I love using the PS4 trackpad to collect wishes.

Presentation wise, this game is just fantastic. From the wonderful visuals to the nice music, the nice menu, the smoothness of controls and the sound effects, this is pretty much perfect.
I really wish more games like this were made. A sort of in between smaller indie titles and big AAA titles with a solid gamelength and superb production values for a very nice price. Love it and makes me really excited about Valiant Hearts.

Playing on ps4. Have searched OT but found nothing. Has anyone else had an issue where cloud saves won't work because "saved data with the same name was uploaded from another ps4"?
I've never used another ps4 other than the one I bought day 1 so confused why it would say that every day when I come back to it (even if I manually over-write the cloud save).
Just concerned about losing progress having read of people having problems loading their saves.

Yep, I forced the save to overwrite. I never checked, now that I think about it, but thankfully I never had my save corrupted, even though the game did have many errors that kicked me out of the game.

the game is definitely unique and awesome but feels short and rushed, especially at the end of the story. need more games like this but more fleshed out.
It still gives you the same 2 difficulty options. The brief description made it sound like the enemies are tougher only because you're starting the game already powered up. So like playing the later chapters on normal. Still pretty easy, but the enemies have more hp. Maybe I'm wrong. I have to beat TR before starting new game+. PEACE.Grimløck;110456527 said:

Really disappointed with the Wii U control options.
I wanted to get it on that for co-op but you have to main the gamepad (with teh same image mirrored on the screen? *barf*) right? And the co-op person uses a Wiimote.... sideways? Wouldn't having to use the d-pad feel pretty annoying and slow?
:|
That is terrible, ignoring the glaringly obvious Wiimote pointing partner option missing - at least let us use Pro Controllers.
Can someone tell me if I'm understanding things correctly?

I thought the instructions specifically said you can use the Wii Remotes pointer controls. Unless you don't have a sensor bar attached, I'm guessing the Pad is a secondary option.
I don't see the issue with the GamePad mirroring the screen, considering it makes it easy to do off-screen play without need of switching it on in the options.

I don't like when the GamePad mirrors the screen when I'm playing on the TV, I don't use off-screen so I never see the point to having them both display the exact same thing at the same time.
All it does is distract me, having the image running on my lap being the same thing as the TV. Even a static stats menu or something instead would be better. Just personal preference.
As far as pointer controls, everything I've read says its just d-pad controls holding the Wiimote sideways for co-op which is moronic. If they offer that at least offer Pro Controller too so I can use a stick instead of d-pad.
But yea, thats why I'm trying to find out for sure, I want to get it on Wii U but the control options don't sound flash for me.
Wonder if they'll patch it?Wow, a beautiful, magical game this is. Completed it last night on xbone with 1000/1000g and it is probably the best experience I've had this year so far. The journey in this game felt genuine and literally transformative for the heroine. I loved the battle system although I'm still waiting for a game to go full Grandia. A lot of people said it is too easy on normal but I found it suitably challenging towards the end, perhaps because I skipped too many encounters though. The music was a perfect match to fill out the mood and atmosphere to go with the gorgeous art. GOTY so far for me.
Oh and after the ending when the credits roll with that song, dem feels!

I'd say so, yes. Battles take slightly longer too.

Kinda need help in Chapter 8. I hate to admit it, but I'm a bit stuck.
In the dungeon area where you have to keep going through different doors, but if you go through the wrong one you get kicked back to the entrance. Is there any special way to navigate this? Are there visual cues I should be paying attention to to find the correct doors?
Look for
the statue of the shield lady and the symbol that's on the shield. Go through corresponding door.

Such a beautiful game. And the soundtrack I find it sometimes hypnotising....so good!
If you press R3, it will keep on glowing without having to hold anything!
Welcome to Gaf,
Have a nice stay,
Post some kind words,
To keep the mods at bay.
Yeah, if your tv isn't so big it can be a pain to see the overlapping speech bubbles sometimes.

Chapter 5:The serpents are kicking my ass
Your main offense should be coming from Finn.
Attacks should be obvious, use monsoon against the flaming head, lightning against the water head, and fire against the other one (poison head, I think). Other than that, have Aurora in a support position on healing duty or to get in some attacks when possible.

About 15 hours or so.
oh, the TV is plenty big, I'm just oblivious sometimes. XD
Regarding that bugged achievement with the Oculi (or whatever it's called) Ubisoft strikes again.
If you have more than 100 friends/followers uPlay gets confused and you can't connect and the achievement doesn't unlock. The same shit they had in the PS4 version of AC IV. Fucking hilarious. It's like no one told Ubisoft that PS4 and XB1 allow more than 100 friends now.
