Your complete guide to Destructoid

so far, there is one big fuckin flaw in Little King's Story
garganroo \| 7:27 AM on 08.09.2009	3 comments

Subject: Members of my Royal Guard are left behind--idiotically, I should add--when climbing stairs.

Description: Whenever I bring a throng of Royal Guards (in 3 columns, not less than 10), a couple of them will have trouble following my lead. They will stop climbing and just run head on against walls or any elevated grounds. That was just stupid. To solve the problem, I would to resort to using the Evade stance then return to Attack stance after climbing.

Reproducibility: Always.

Possible solution: Improved path-finding AI. That is the only way.

That wasn't too big of a problem for me. In fact, I thought it sort of made sense that sometimes my army would suck at following me, as they probably would in real life.

Still, you have a point. They could have mapped the c-pad left and right tabs to control your followers.

All stuff that could happen for the sequel. Cross fingers!

It was a big problem for me, bigger than the slightly archaic targeting system (lock-on is available only for some enemies). I don't mind occasional stumbles, but 100% reproducibility (QA speak, sorry) is 100% unacceptable. :)

And yes, I'm looking forward to the possible sequel, even if I'm only 10 hours into the game.

Trust me, if you're only ten hours in you'll find more important things to whine about :-P. Like...

SPOILER the Shiskebaboo pinball battle, Rat King or paying damn Liam later in the game SPOILER

but yeah I agree the pathfinding can be cumbersome
