I love the parallels to the actual myth of Hou Yi from Chinese mythology. Like of course there's the surface level stuff of Hou , the archer who shot down nine of the ten suns, but when you make that connection at the start of the game you assume Yi would be the tenth sol (sun) that remains after killing the other nine. Instead, Yi shoots himself down, allowing the remaining tenth sol (Kuafu) to nurture Humanity just as the tenth sun does in the original myth. Not to mention the fact that the infected primordial root with its tentacles literally looks like a sun, and Yi shoots it with his bow to allow the real sun to shine on the Earth and support Humanity. So goated.
@@murkinupbecause you're too impatient and dumb to realise that a video showing the entire game from beginning to end would obviously have major spoilers in its comment section?
@@VietDang-yk1yt Being specific, it's really well balanced for that point in the game. It's one of my favorite midway boss fights ever. I just think if it were a final boss fight on the scale of the radience with more attacks and phases and some tighter sequencing, it would be one of my favorite boss fights period.
I remember hearing about how Lady Ethereal has mental health issues, and I think this song sounds almost like someone is going insane while retaining some of their mind. I think it's very fitting for her character. Edit: I just looked at how the backgrounds change, it almost seems like the issues are revealing themselves to us through the splitting of the head and then the butterfly.
I was surprised that RedCandle made this game, their two prior games were top-tier psychological horror games that didn’t really have any combat at all, but they absolutely NAILED their first action game. Nine Sols is my GOTY, and Yi is the most memorable protagonist we’ve seen in a hot minute because holy moly this Sanrio gone rogue has done some serious shit, some despicable, downright VILE things.
People praise this game's visuals and gameplay. which is really fair, but I need to listen to more people talk about the story. Actually left me in tears and all the themes are very thought provoking; it has a few undisclosed bits and holes, but they're practically irrelevant and they weren't afraid to support what was strong about the writing instead of scrambling to bandaid what wasn't necessary or weaker.
I just realised, Yi was likely made in likeness to Huo Yi, a figure form a legend who shot down 9 suns to save humans from being scorched, leaving only one so that humanity could live This could reference how Yi shot down the sols including himself (Goumang, YanLao, JieQuan, Lady Ethereal, Ji, The Fengs, EiGong and Yi add up to 9, plus the game is literally called nine sols), leaving Kuafu as the final Sol or Sun to take care of the apemen
I was not expecting to get emotional at the end when yi reads the last letter from her sister or during true ending. It's nothing unique but i haven't seen this genre of games having a good active story
doesnt even compare to sekiro maybe its like dogshit hollow knight and its certainly not a masterpiece. doesnt even come close to being similar to sekiro in quality, story, or gameplay
Red Candle Games also coined the term "Taopunk" to describe this fusion of Taoist elements with cyberpunk, and as the first game with this aesthetic, it could be the start of many great things to come in this genre!
As long as you have traveled to Asia, you will know that the atmosphere of this game is neither Hong Kong, Japan, nor China, but because of history, Taiwan as a whole is closely related to the above countries. I think only an artist who lived or grew up in Taiwan could make something like this weird, anti-minimalist, dystopian, steampunk, yet full of Taoist elements. 😂 (Bizarre but unique) TaoPunk is indeed a very unforgettable style. everyone should go to Taiwan to experience it if you have the chance.
I agree, Taiwan is indeed a country that is both traditional and cyberpunk, high technology but also spirituality. Their art style is a more old school than Japan, but I like it.
Honestly though, the art style reminds me more of Buddhist temples in Taiwan, even if the underlying philosophy of the art is taoist. Taoist temples tend to be much more extravagant and extremely decorated. Feels more like a minimalist take on taoist art style.
I feel bad for Kaufu now. He is now the last of his species. And if what Yi says is true, then the virus is something in all Solarians. That means he doesn't have much time either.
yeah eventually all Solarians will die And that gave rise to humans on Earth. In the ancient myth of Chinese culture, ShuanShuan refers to Shuan(Xuan) Yuan, who was the leader of the first human tribe.
The best part is that the Tianhuo research logs state that without the Tianhuo genes of Fusang (the roots), Solarians just develop into animals with much shorter lifespans (heavily implied to be literal housecats). My headcanon is that Kuafu finds some way to clone himself but without the Tianhuo gene, giving rise to the housecats that persist in Human society :D
@@annieone-trick VERY late to this, but it is not just heavily implied, but directly confirmed that solarians without tianhuo ARE cats, as doing a small mystic nymph puzzle for a hack point opens the canisters in that room, revealing the cats, as well as during the run back to the four seasons pavillion, the glass tubes are broken, with the cats having presumed to escape onto the ship, as well as the board in that room labelling them XX and XY, making them the cat equivalent to adam and eve as others have worded it
Almost all of HKs mechanics and concepts are from things decades older than itself. But if something goes viral and gets popular that becomes the new point of comparison.

Played this on linux. It would just stutter randomly for no reason while being 60fps all the other time indie devs need to include native linux support
Loved this game, definitely at the top of my indies for 2024. Story is engaging and characters are actually genuinely interesting, while making the lore not so confusing that you'll ignore and skip it. Everything is just so greatly balanced that I can't think of any flaws other than being a bit short in game length. It's one of those games that I wish would just pull out a "here's an upside-down tower" like SoTN just so I can play it for longer. It's technically a Metroidvania or 2D Souls-like but with Sekiro inspired parry system. If more 2D Souls-like games with parry system will come out after this, should the subgenre be called "Sols-like"?
In interviews, the devs said they already cut a lot of fights and plots due to time and strength limits🥲🥲for example, there was supposed to be a fight with the big dragon boat! Also, they had to compromise a lot in the very late display of the plot reveal bcs they were running out of time😂 But, still, a fantastic and amazing game!❤
Hollowknight has tons of recognition...And Silksong is one of the most anticipated games and has been for years straight. Literally on the top lists. Metroidvanias are absurdly popular. The reason THIS game isn't getting as much attention is simple, the visuals. It simply doesn't look appealing tbh. Combat seems puddle deep (even though its decent) and the attacks/hits just don't carry a lot of punch and impact. Idk how to better describe it, but compared to hollowknight combat it just feels extremely floaty here especially when WATCHING. Which is important because these days people will watch something before deciding if they'll try it. And if it just doesn't look good, they'll never even try it in the first place regardless of how decent it might be. There also just isn't as much content as hollowknight. Most people finish HK and are usually between 60-70% total completion. Having missed tons of bosses and content along the way. Whereas the achievements on this game, are EXTREMELY high percentage completed. Hollowknight still has a few achievements with under 10-5% even all these years later. The LOWEST percentage achievement in this game is 14%. Which means a casual run is getting A LOT of people 100% completion without much effort. And that's exactly why THIS game specifically just doesn't get as much traction.
I think the opposite honestly. I personally hate the art style and think its a massive reason as to why its not getting as popular as the other games in the same genre. Along with the combat just not really having a lot of impact. At least not from watching it, combat seems pretty hollow compared to Hollowknight. AND it costs $10 more.
@@lukiluk8026 I beat the true ending final boss by only parrying until her hp bar was all internal damage and then doing 1 talisman explosion for each phase, it felt so good not having to look for attack opportunities and just learning how to parry and dodge every move.
35:35 This thing reminds me of the local events I participated in during the Dragon Boat Festival in Taiwan. It was a great experience. I’m glad that they still incorporated a lot of local traditional customs into the cyberpunk style.
1:31:14 Good to know that despite being set in a Cyberpunk Taoist future, Kojima still managed to realize his dream of the Metal Gear Solid 1 torture scene one way or another
If you are liking nine sols so far then please try the game "laika: Aged through blood" its a game that plays in the tragic aftermath of humanity wiping itself out with nukes thus creating a post apocaliptic wasteland where the story of our main character Laika, and her daughter puppy plays in, its also a very emotional and tragic story and definetely more of a mature game
This game is so much fun my personal game of the year combining sekiro and hollow knight is absolutely phenomenal work and also combining comic style cutscenes with normal cutscenes was so good haven't seen a game this creative in a while.
Watching another person play this is super cool! You dodge attacks so much more than I ever did and that different perspective on all the bosses is super cool. I parried pretty much everything and used the first arrow the entire game to shut down attacks or patterns I wasnt wanting which made some bosses so much more fun and others admittedly harder than needed XD
Same for me. It is nice to see difrence in someone playstyle. Parry mechanic give you so much satisfaction that i was even not doing melee to prolong fights just for fun. Who needs dash when you can parry and unbound parry?
it was so interesting to watch you play bc you unbound parry wayyy less than I did. You pretty much only use it if its absolutely undodgable but I used it at every chance I had cause it did internal damage lol
I bought this game thanks to you. Decided to watch a small portion, watched your fight against lady etheria and decided to play it myself. Just beat her yesterday. Great game.
i was looking at this game yesterday and then youtube autoplayed me here. first off, well played? you picked up on it so fluidly! will promote this to my friends, thanks.
I am on my third playthrough right now. This game's replayability is insane. Since the depth of the combat system is deep. You are meant to try different way to pass the same bosses. Take talisman as an example. The auto-explode one is the FOO strategy for first run through, but it is relatively slow and inflexible. It feels great after you master the talisman system in using the other 2. The way to true mastery makes shorter battle and stronger sense of control, which gives me a profound satisfaction that I cannot get on the first playthrough.
I tried Hollow Knight many times but the game just didn't click with me, but Nine Sols? Holy shit this game got me hooked from the start and I loved every second of it, one of the best games of 2024
Yea hollow knight is a great game and a common complaint from people is the start feels slow and tedious but it’s worth it, it ramps up right after the first boss. If you love nine souls you’ll love hollow knight you just need a bit of dedication
0:13 just moved to NC from CO, hoping to make it into black mountain. When i got here, Asheville and black mountain flooded as i was elsewhere for the time being. Apparently logan paul sent prime up there to "help", I will hopefully be going up there soon to help.
You should try out Rain World, i know that one guy in chat a couple years ago that spammed telling you to play it might have influenced your opinion on it. But, it is a very good game, the dlc came out and it has another on the way. I know getting recommendations for games is quite annoying at times, but take this as a reminder that it does exist and if you find a care to play it im sure the fanbase would love the recognition your channel brings to the lesser known games.

why did I never hear about this game before? its better than a lot of games that got popular and were barely good
RedCandleGames only makes three games from 2017,but all of them get overwhelmingly positive.
@@enermax82 wait, what are the other games?
@@Ar1AnX1x DETENTION and DEVOTION,but they are very different type of games from Nine Sols.
@@enermax82 thanks for letting me know, I'll look them up, didn't know about it
@@enermax82 thanks dude, appreciate it
Every nine sols discord Im in is freaking out rn
i was looking at this game yesterday and then youtube autoplayed me here. first off, well played? you picked up on it so fluidly! will promote this to my friends, thanks.
that being said this game looks like the dead cells equivalent to dark souls idk how i feel about that yet
this is my game of the year
I am on my third playthrough right now. This game's replayability is insane.
Since the depth of the combat system is deep. You are meant to try different way to pass the same bosses.
Take talisman as an example. The auto-explode one is the FOO strategy for first run through, but it is relatively slow and inflexible. It feels great after you master the talisman system in using the other 2. The way to true mastery makes shorter battle and stronger sense of control, which gives me a profound satisfaction that I cannot get on the first playthrough.
I cant believe i started playing Nine sols just a few days before charlie and he's having just a good a time as i am.
Thanks
I tried Hollow Knight many times but the game just didn't click with me, but Nine Sols? Holy shit this game got me hooked from the start and I loved every second of it, one of the best games of 2024
For hollow knight it usually takes until a certain point when the game clicks and you love it
Yea hollow knight is a great game and a common complaint from people is the start feels slow and tedious but it’s worth it, it ramps up right after the first boss. If you love nine souls you’ll love hollow knight you just need a bit of dedication
@ not even just the first boss I see a lot of people not start loving it until mantis lords and city of tears
@@oXRaptorzXo well yeah I'm just saying the game does pick up after that but it can still be a drag for some
definitely better than wukong

doesn’t follow a hurricane in his state but will keep tabs on diddy
Yes keep the Nine Sols love coming 🙏🙏🙏🙏
0:13 just moved to NC from CO, hoping to make it into black mountain. When i got here, Asheville and black mountain flooded as i was elsewhere for the time being. Apparently logan paul sent prime up there to "help", I will hopefully be going up there soon to help.
three hour fifty eight minute and thirteen second long video situation is crazy
I am really happy to see people play this game this is incredible
we aren't sleeping today. thanks charles
No one laugh
@@zeldawrldd At you? Impossible.
hold a speedrun challenge for this game
I bet it will get more attention when/if they release it to console. One of the very few games I’m dying to play that’s not on console.
You should try out Rain World, i know that one guy in chat a couple years ago that spammed telling you to play it might have influenced your opinion on it. But, it is a very good game, the dlc came out and it has another on the way. I know getting recommendations for games is quite annoying at times, but take this as a reminder that it does exist and if you find a care to play it im sure the fanbase would love the recognition your channel brings to the lesser known games.
I'll have a chance to try out now that it's coming to all platforms
the fact charlie just didnt realise at all he had an enemy emoblizing talisman
29:40 Got that immersive world experience
Haven't seen, heard of this game, but the pfp reminds me of Double King. Also deserves more
2:12:29 Annnnnnd that image is haunting...
So glad you're spreading word about this game, I loved playing it and was happily surprised with the story and game mechanics
