I personally don’t miss the fact that npc’s don’t exist in Lilies, simply because Lily and Umbral knight were said to be the last remaining in the entire kingdom with their minds not corrupted by the blight
That music really, REALLY reminds me of several tunes from final fantasy III (VI) on the snes and thats in my all time top 5 favorite games on any system
@@RelyeaGaming I'm skipping the early access, I really need the easy difficulty level lol. Ender Lililes is a difficult game, especially when you're playing in the first few hours.
I liked Ender Lilies, but some of the gripes I had kept me from loving it. This is exciting knowing you've noticed several improvements. Thanks, Relyea!
one change that I like is how the MC will now act out the attacks and make striking motions with each attack vs how the MC in Ender Lilies just flinched and ducked: that really expresses the difference in personalities and how your character in this game is actively involved instead of passively being protected. And I strongly disagree with the overall statements that the full game will be drastically revised vs this early version, especially in relation to how early you get the double jump / air dash ... this is the second game & the first one was a massive hit that easily holds a spot in the metroidvania hall of fame. So it is likely that the majority of players will be vets from the first game and trying to drip feed basic mechanics for an established series is tedious: everything in a metroidvania before the double jump is just a tutorial, and there is zero reason to drag that process out in this game.
I played Ender Lilies early acesss on February, the game full release on June. So about 4 month gap. Hope the full release for Magnolia is similar. Worse come to worse it takes a year to be fully release
What makes me worried about Metroidvanias, is that they are great, but don't sell a lot and get cancelled or are very basic. Luckily these studios still create them, and I really liked PoP, so let's hope more people play these over all those multiplayer crap (just my honest opinion). Hopefully this game will end up in Game Pass and for Playstation Plus. That helped me to discover Hollow Knight, and really fall in love with these kinds of games. :)
Yeah, many of them tend to be basic BUT we have some good ones on the horizon. Silksong, and Crowsworn are further out but BioGun and Bo Path of the Teal lotus will be out this year
@@RelyeaGaming Tales of Kenzera: Zau is out this month, and also looks promising as well. I really think the genre has so many great games, but I wished the 'mainstream' gamer would also be more interested, and I think publishers unfortunately only care about numbers. Like Ubisoft wasn't happy with the PoP sales..
@@RelyeaGamingthere no contact damage as of right now. I’m personally happy about this . Some ppl liked it some didn’t review wise. But it was one of the major complaints of lilies. I’m just thinking about the fight with Julius and he just walk backwards into u doing his super beam attack.
From what I can see, the game looks downgraded in it’s visual style. Ender lilies really came in strong with the usage of reds and whites and using said colours to show the deterioration of Lily. There seams to be less squash and stretch with the enemies which is nice though.
We only got to see a couple of areas thus far. I am curious to see how different the new places will be. But overall Ender magnolia is a massive improvement.
Has it been confirmed if Ender Magnolia takes place in the same world as Ender Lilies, or is it a stand alone game that takes place in its own universe?
I still find the way the physics and fighting in this game work, clunky and slow. Specifically the movement and sword of the playable character. I like the art and music, but if the gameplay is not enjoyable I might as well just play a different game. Let's see where the devs go with this.
Are the events in this game related to the events from the first? Does it take place before or after? I absolutely adored the first game and am emphatically excited to dive into this one 😄
@@105rogue yeah we cleansed ONE Kingdom of the Blight when there's supposed to be SIX... I'm still waiting for the sequel to hit the ps5 store, but I hope we get a cameo at least
@@RelyeaGaming thank you! I had no idea they made another game, Ender Lilies was one of the first metroidvania's other than HK I ever wanted to full complete so this is AWESOME! :D
Contrary to many people, I wasn't a big fan of Ender Lilies. It was average at best for me, not counting the music which was good. Magnolia looks to be much better.
Ender Lilies was very boring and overrated. The rooms were just rectangles and everything else was just meh (lack of NPCs doesn't help). I will only get Ender Magnolia if it improves on these deficiencies.
They've managed to make 2 games before silksong has come out.
Team cherry washed
Silksong is just a collective fever dream.
@@mattmatter5643 Perhaps dreams aren't such good things after all.
@@QcDiablo Elderbug was right all along 😭
Silksong is coming out around the time bloodborne remastered drops. 😂
I personally don’t miss the fact that npc’s don’t exist in Lilies, simply because Lily and Umbral knight were said to be the last remaining in the entire kingdom with their minds not corrupted by the blight
The white priestess of the fount also held onto her mind

OH MY GOSH! I JUST 100%'D ENDER LILIES A FEW WEEKS AGO AND WAS BURNING FOR A SEQUEL. I HAD NO IDEA THIS WAS EVEN COMING OUT! THANK YOU!!!
AfterImage is also a game I recommend if you haven't decided what to play next.
We are only in early access now. Would be nice is there is a full release this year
@@RelyeaGaming I'm skipping the early access, I really need the easy difficulty level lol. Ender Lililes is a difficult game, especially when you're playing in the first few hours.
@@RelyeaGaming apparently, the early access will last about a year
@@RelyeaGaming Nintendo showcase says 2024 so I’m thinking 6 month ea so probably September
Good stuff! I loved Ender Lilies. I was over the moon when Ender Magnolia got announced out of nowhere!
I'm pretty disappointed we aren't still Lily and the massive time jump. Going from Medieval dark sorcery to steam punk is a massive downgrade too ngl
Yeah, we might have stopped the rain, but we still don't know where the blight came from or what happened to the other 5 kingdoms
i already wanted to play Ender Lilies so bad and now this video makes me want to play it even more... love your review vids as always : )
U should definitely play ender lilies
Ender lilies is worth a playthrough for sure
Ender lilies gets finished fast I played on the ps5 and got the platinum trophy in less than 48 hours of gameplay
I liked Ender Lilies, but some of the gripes I had kept me from loving it. This is exciting knowing you've noticed several improvements. Thanks, Relyea!
Have you played Tails of Iron? i would love to hear your opinion about the game
Yeah! I did a full playthrough and they just announced tails of Iron 2 just recently!
Very exciting stuff.
I really enjoyed tails of iron

Do you think we are going to get silksong in 2024
Sorry, only good games in 2024.
I sure hope so!
@@frogmouth2 so thats why you dont have friends.
I have lost hope

i was so scared there was gonna be a code on this
I have seen your videos on the codes and super interesting stuff. I’m going to have to look into it more when I get a chance
Is there a switch demo?
I'm so excited, I love ender lillies
When does it officially come out?
According to the steam page 6-12 months
i think Magnolia will be better, i 100% Lilies on xbox, bought it on ps5 and, steam with the plan of plan of 100%ing it again at some point.
Has it been confirmed if Ender Magnolia takes place in the same world as Ender Lilies, or is it a stand alone game that takes place in its own universe?
takes place in the same world far in the future
In the early access, There is a boss which in the post defeat cutscene, the Blight is mentioned, so it has to be in the same universe
what happened to team cherry? theyve been cooking for so loooong
I think Ender lilies and magnolia are both awesome and great 👍👍👍👍✨✨✨✨

I've read it's supposed to be decades later, but I think it's a different kingdom
@@wicked.a950 I wish we would get an update. It's so good! I really want to continue the game 😄.
@@105rogue yeah we cleansed ONE Kingdom of the Blight when there's supposed to be SIX...
I'm still waiting for the sequel to hit the ps5 store, but I hope we get a cameo at least
@@wicked.a950 The sequel isn't on ps5? Well if the first game is, no doubt the sequel will be coming. They are probably just waiting on full release.
Imagine if you put a code at the end of the video 🤣
I thought about it haha.
I’ll probably have to look into that whole thing more soon
Ender Magnolia will release on January 22, 2025
ENDER LILIES CREATORS MADE ANOTHER GAME???
It’s on early access. Worth picking up on discount and waiting until full release
@@RelyeaGaming thank you! I had no idea they made another game, Ender Lilies was one of the first metroidvania's other than HK I ever wanted to full complete so this is AWESOME! :D

Same! Waiting for Magnolia. I like some of the new stuff that’s being implemented.
