#FluffyPlaysBastion - Part 2

One of the features of Bastion is New Game Plus, which allows you to carry forward unlocked items from your previous finished game. Since there's a Steam achievement if you complete a round of New Game Plus, I thought, why not give it a go? That's where the next livetweeting session picks up.

Collecting weapons upgrades, one bit at a time :3 #FluffyPlaysBastion

Kid plots his course through the world. He feels a sense of deja vu as he picks up things he's seen before.

I'm really starting to wonder if there's more to Rucks' narrative.. #FluffyPlaysBastion

Kid reflects on what I've been telling him so far. He's a smart kid, he'll work it out for himself.

"Don't be in such a hurry to grow up, for there's nothing a kid can't do." Wise words, Rucks. #FluffyPlaysBastion

When kids can run around slaying monsters, that's when you know they'll be fine on their own.

Oooooh yay halfway through the Steam achievements already :3 #FluffyPlaysBastion

Kid seems proud of what he's done so far. Can't blame him, can't stop him from gloating either.

Yes the gods do really hate you in Bastion. Pray to all of them, and prepare your body. That's me, next time on #FluffyPlaysBastion.

Kid decides to defy the gods. Bad choice, I suppose, but I can't stop him from doing something he wants to do.

Ow the gods really hate the Kid. #FluffyPlaysBastion

Kid's back for another round. Seems like he's not done with his vendetta against the gods yet..

My fingers are getting numb and sore. And frozen. #FluffyPlaysBastion

All this fighting's taking a toll on the kid. But he's not ready to give up just yet.

Oh gods that was VERY painful. The gods REALLY hate the Kid. #FluffyPlaysBastion
— Your High Fluffiness (@Kyp_Lim) July 18, 2013

Kid's learning fast, that the gods demand his respect.

Dammit Garmuth, less deflecting more lemme attack. #FluffyPlaysBastion
— Your High Fluffiness (@Kyp_Lim) July 18, 2013

Ah Garmuth, foiling the kid's efforts again.

Interesting.. the Singer's Dream on "Gods hate you" mode felt easier than the Kid's Dream on the same mode.. #FluffyPlaysBastion
— Your High Fluffiness (@Kyp_Lim) July 18, 2013

Kid loves his dreams, always going back for more.

Fuck but the Stranger's Dream is the worst to complete on "Gods hate you" mode. I'm going to bed, #FluffyPlaysBastion will be back later :3
— Your High Fluffiness (@Kyp_Lim) July 18, 2013

The gods' reminder to the kid finally gets through, and he bows to their wishes.. at last.

Closing comments:
New Game Plus is fun, sometimes I wonder why more games don't incorporate it. That said, I'm not entirely sold on the way New Game Plus is incorporated into the main storyline and game progression, as there are many regions where you absolutely need to pick up whatever new weapon is uncovered in order to move along.
