VN Ren'Py Completed Mythos: Book One [v1.1.0.0] [Nine of Swords]

[Degen Man]

Mini Rant:
I started playing this game yesterday and its so good in just about every aspect. The story, humour, audio cues, just about everything is gripping and entertaining. The fact that this is the dev's first endeavour and a solo endeavour at that is mind boggling.

But then I realised I'm unlocking barely anything in the Achievements and I decided to download the Achievement Guide, and imagine my disappointment. Why the heck is unlocking a few special images that convoluted
I'd love to ignore that tab entirely and continue with the story but not being able to unlock every aspect of the game kinda pisses me off.

In conclusion, goated game (as of Chapter 1) but the constant back and forth digital gymnastics needed to unlock images feels like an unnecessary and complicated detour, to the point that I lose focus on the main story and I'm in constant worry on whether or not I missed an achievement.

I remember there was a lot of memes with that scene.

Very good movie by the way, but not funny at all.

I agree, but you can make a joke out of anything. I heard that there was a joke-telling competition in Moscow recently. The first place winner got 4 years and six months in prison.

As Pierre Desproges, my favorite French humorist, once said "You can laugh at everything, but not with everyone".

OK, you were busy for the release on Steam of Mythos Book One.
So, I forgive you for not putting Book Two on my desk this morning.
But I expect it tomorrow morning.

Can anyone please clarify how and when to get the Mandela Effect achievement? I name my character Nelson Nelson but as much as I progress the story, it isn't unlocking.

It takes a bit to trigger, so it's kinda weird.

You should get the popup during the "Mortal Kombat" segment between B and Sophia.

Which is also when I realized all the B nicknames that I had yet to see ...

Sorry Nine of Swords, I couldn't help myself, I'm a fan of The Fifth Element and of Jean-Baptiste Emmanuel Zorg

I'd never leave the house; wouldn't be able to keep my hands off myself.

All men are just closeted trans women, you read it here first.
I mean, not really, but... .. .

(The actual joke's, most women wouldn't actually want a waist that extreme, and the beard's also no go for many... and that hair?!? gonna stop shitposting now. Soonish. Ok? <_<)

While looking around the shop, I noticed that Mythos has been released as part of a bundle with Glowing Stones.

I'm debating whether to buy Mythos on its own or the whole bundle, but I'm not familiar with the other game.

Can you tell me if it's a serious superhero game or a parody? .

 

[Bloodguard]

It's pretty good. I think the bundle is well worth it.

but the constant back and forth digital gymnastics needed to unlock images feels like an unnecessary and complicated detour, to the point that I lose focus on the main story and I'm in constant worry on whether or not I missed an achievement.

There's an easy solution to this:

Just play the game. Focus on the main story. Enjoy it and stop obsessing over minutiae.

Then you can go back later, replay the game, and try to get all the little things you missed.

Honestly, if you're trying for full achievement completion on your very first run, you're generally ruining the game experience for yourself no matter what game you're playing. Don't do that.

Comrade Stalin was curious about how ordinary Russian people lived, so he put on a disguise and went to the cinema. A film about him was being shown, and at the end of the film everyone stood up and applauded. Comrade Stalin sat proudly and contentedly in his seat. Then someone behind him spoke up.
“Stand up and applaud, you stupid moustache, or the NKVD will arrest you!”
