Well right off I noticed you don't have run like dodo on but that doesn't matter for this. Are you buffing your luck? I tried a lot of things like weapon element, insanity, his buffs, etc. After stalling the fight for a long time just using omnibuff, phalanx, and guarding and dodging appropriately, I broke him everytime (about 4 or 5 attempts in the same fight), even his mirrors. I tried again this time only buffing my defense and mdefense with items and using phalanx and couldn't break him. You could also upgrade the mock turtle's ladle, it gives +50% luck at +5, same as stacking two luck buffs in case you don't want to spend two turns on omnibuff.
In other words, the fight is literally luck based.

Buffing luck is worked, i was able to Break him consistently! I didn't even consider it, because someone tell here that using Break on vulnerable target have 10 million percent success rate. So even if your Luck stat is really low, with such multiplier you should be able to break anything.
But i guess it is wrong. Or maybe Old King works different, idk.
Good thing you was able to figure that out, cause i wouldn't get it my self. Thanks man.

Yeah, before this I also assumed break would just always work as long as they were charging.

The standard formula for debuffs in VXA is
You don't have permission to view the spoiler content. Log in or register now.
where luk_effect_rate is [1.0 + (user.luk - luk) * 0.001, 0.0].max.

If your luck is 1000 below the target, every single debuff (including Break) will fail. The Old King's Luck stat is 3996 (999 base * 4, the Diff 9+ multiplier for Luck), so if you have less than 2997 luck, you'll always be incapable of Breaking the Reflections.

(As a side note, Unis has a base of 8,100 Luck (32400 @ Diff 9), so if you have less than that, don't expect to inflict Fear, even with her x10 weakness multiplier)

Thanks for the detailed explanation of luck affecting debuff application but the point was that I thought break was an exception. It's not though and, going forward, whenever someone claims the fight is bugged, I can tell them to get more luck (and now I also know exactly how much they need, thanks). Assuming break does have a huge multiplier to its success rate like claimed before, this explains why for most of the game, break is guaranteed, since you're very unlikely to have over 1k less luck than any enemy you fight.
BTW, I know difficulty setting doesn't affect the chaos dungeon. Are you also implying that depth 9 applies the same multiplier as diff 9? It would make sense though since the save being used has 2551 luck.

You enter Hollow state when you die. While in that status, Nightmare spirits won't spawn, but you won't be able to summon Dream spirits as well (red book before a fog). To cancel Hollow state, you must use Alice scent. Also, Dream Library notes cover that topic.
For each book you return to the library you get a consumable item that increases you level (I don't remember it's name). Return them all and Node will offer you a gift (an item, a ring, souls or a special gift).

I have a question regarding scripting/screen resolution for Blacksouls2

I have an older version of Blacksouls2 which I believe has Fullscreen++ (or a script similar to it) incorporated into it, allowing me to change the screen's resolution via F5 & F6. My newer an updated version of Blacksouls2 does not have this feature however. I know next to nothing about scripting so I was wonder if anyone here could help me out in implementing the Resolution feature onto my newer BS version?

No, they are useless.

So I have finished the game last week and I do have to say that it is the most interesting RPG Maker 18+ game that I have played to date. There's a lot of great RPG Maker games out there, whether it is 18+ or not, but this one takes the cake for the 18+ category.

But now there's this hollow feeling in me looking for another RPG Maker game that has a really well made story line and interesting journey. Sure, there's old gems like Ao Oni and Mad Father or
You must be registered to see the links
for example in the E(?) rated range, but weirdly enough I feel like the 18+ part of it makes the story more whole and doesn't shy from the aspect of free story telling in general, in addition of a more free, and thus more interesting story telling even though I kinda skip over it after seeing it once.

I have been scouring around not just the past week, but for a long while for something that interest me in the 18+ genre, but most of the time the "not so well" crafted aspect of the story became a major turn off for me.

There's a lot of "Grand" RPG Maker 18+ game out there, example would be Princess & Conquest and My New Life: Revamp that just doesn't seem to caught my interest in the story department or execution, and there's also a lot of less grand titles that just doesn't hold the same level of amusement such as Nano-Control or Jikage Rising, even though all the game I have listed so far are all great games. Maybe I'm just being spoiled by Black Souls story, twists, mystery, and creativity?

Anyway, the closest to the game that I have found are games by Takamakuran that has similarity in their games, which is this messy-like art style and their kinda-depressing story. I enjoyed their games such as A New Game and The Mercenary's Adventure, but even their games aren't as polished and as interesting as EMMM's Black Souls series.

I think what makes me gravitate to Black Souls boils down to their mastery in story telling/creativity as well as their unique but discernable art style. I don't want another character from Illusion's character generator and a simple screenshot of it, nor do I want another harem based story that is very superficial and holds no substance or weight, or a RPG Maker game where the point is for you to just wank one out. I want something that surprises me or makes me think of what the author of the story is trying to portray or say, even if their point boils down to madness and insanity, because no matter how severe it is if it is there with a purpose and has a great execution and story, then it is a great story nonetheless. (Example of this would be the Berserk Manga)

With all that said, does anyone here have a recommendation that fulfills all the criteria that I am looking for? An RPG Maker game with great lengthy story and great execution on the same level as Black Souls? I'm starting to lose hope trying to find one. It doesn't have to be all depressed, it's just have to be well executed and full of love poured into the game and the story. I'm at the point where I'm thinking I should make one myself (as easy as that is to say, I know how hard it is to make a powerful game, hence the scarcity).

Appreciate all the help, suggestions and replies! Also tell me what do you think of the game; Am I just being over the top praising it or is it justified compared to its competitors?

Try Lilith in Nightmare. It's not some kind of dark fantasy, but characters, grind are done well. Plus all h scenes are animated
