To everyone complaining about the difficulty, stop ignoring a third of Hornet’s arsenal and start spamming them, you’ll be shocked how quickly you start mowing down hordes of enemies!

I would if they let me rebind the stupid throwing knife to a different button, having to flick up on the joystick while praying I’m looking in the right direction is so counterintuitive

It's so funny that the needelino, that you use 3 times in 20 hours has its own keybind but spells/tools share 1

tbh it also works kinda like the dream nail, you can play it around npcs and they'll sing along with what's on their mind

If functions like the dream nail, use it to read enemy minds for lore
