Deathspank: Unicorn Poop Within

About the only problem I seem to see coming is how each of my two hand weapons is a seperate button? WTF is with that? Maybe I was just looking at it wrong and it was before 6am, but that seems like a wonky decision. Otherwise it was pretty awesome using the Hammer of Justice on some baddies.
Thanks for the insightful analysis.
Anyway, I picked this game up last night after playing the demo and ended up playing it for about 2 hours longer than I should have and now I'm work about to fall asleep at my desk.

There is actually a combo system that involves switching weapons with each hit. So basically you start cycling through the face buttons instead of just pounding on one.
Yeah, it just doesn't actually tell you that until like 2 hours in.

Its true.
It points out that monsters with higher numbers are harder about 3 hours in :P
Well, I will counter that with the argument that I had virtually no idea or expectations about this game whatsoever, and ended up downloading the demo on a whim, playing for 10 minutes in the demo and immediately buying it, playing it for about 4 hours last night, 2 hours later than I should have.

Yeah I liked 1up's review. They basically said the game was pretty average but the writing and dialog more than makes up for it.
Really enjoying the game. Special mention to the music on the menu screen, which is awesome.

I'm curious as to what you can use combine for, other than the anvil in the well thing :P
I have no idea what game those reviewers were playing, because this one is great.
I havent tried it yet, but I downloaded the demo last night. I thought this game had a local co-op though? Does it not have any form of co-op?
They call it "girlfriend coop", meaning like how super mario galaxy had coop. The second player does a few halfassed things to help the first player.
You get a weapon from a quest that can kill ghosts (I think I got it at level 14-15, and you are not supposed to get it early) but you should get back to those level 7 ghosts after you get that weapon since the ghosts in the "starter zone" dropped a gold key each.
Weapon and quest info
This game also has avatar awards, I got a dragon and a unicorn poop T-shirt. (Also a few gamerpictures so far.)
I must have missed that. I kept searching for something to use the anvil's on, but wells never got the interaction highlight. Is it a specific well somewhere?
I also feel like I'm missing something since most NPC and objects in the world have a Use (A) option and a Use With (Y) option. A few times when I would have expected to use Y to combine two things, the game did it automatically with A. And every time I tried combining random stuff hoping for a joke, he just said "I can't do that."
Plus, I've got runes that mention combining an Undeath Melee Weapon with various other things. I'm level 19 now, and I've got a Fire Axe, Frost Hammer, and Poison Club, but have never seen a melee Undeath anything, and the merchants don't sell them. I even tried
I'm at level 17, and just realized something to do with the first bit.
Anvil + Well = long enough distraction to get cherries from the trees?
If that's the case, I feel a facepalm coming on.
As for the second thing,
The stuff just before the ending seemed a "bit" to indicate DLC...
Edit: About the anvil in the well thing, yes its just a way to save the money you otherwise would pay the Ex-orphan vendor for her red paint bucket, by coloring the horns with the cherries instead.
Got all achievements and killed everything, I want more !
Well, that'll be why I didn't realize that sooner.
Any chance you remember where? I'm betting it was probably in a gold treasure chest I forgot to go back for once I got a key.
If it was a gold treasure chest, it would be in one of the early ones, around the Greem area. I'm thinking it's more likely a random drop from that area, though.
Super fun and entertaining, definitely room for a more elaborate sequel. With the sweet art design and the cool graphic effects (the way the terrain moved always tripped me out) and the decent variety of enemies and areas, it was a great way to spend $15. Highly recommend.
Its in the treasure chest near the greem champion (tuna quest) and the first greem queen mating stone is literally a few meters away
You need to use them when your Justice Meter (the purple skull-thing in the middle of your health) is full, then use whatever combination of weapons it says at the same time. e.g. Melee fire weapon + Cleaver = 360° fire attack.
Unless I'm missing something about teleporting out of the dungeon, I'm stuck and pretty frustrated.
Not quite true; I had some of the larger Pips do 6 damage whilst blocking. I think it just drops it to 1% of what it would normally be. Perfect blocks are automatically 0 damage, plus a full Justice Meter recharge.
