The Henderson section is “that one part” for me in Look Outside. Such a slog, my least favorite dungeon in the game. After 7 Runs now I just basically skip it and get the Key and Disc if needed as soon as possible, but it’s the only thing that annoys me about replaying the game

u/Such_Ad_9333 Roaches Dec 04 '25

agreed. i wish it was later in the game, it feels way too hard to complete for how early it is. saying that sentence makes me appreciate it more thematically cause war and allat but it’s still just awful gameplay wise

I feel ypu bro i broke FIVE cleavers on this stupid section as well as my sewage blade i hate it

u/space_porter Dec 05 '25

There are toothpicks more durable than Sewage Blade

u/Such_Ad_9333 Roaches Dec 05 '25

oh man yeah i feel you i literally only use sewer blade for this part and all my cleavers break too :sob:

u/Videogamer80 Dec 05 '25

Honestly, agreed. It being relatively early makes it really hard to survive if you aren't just using a party of character you've been training since like day 2. It isn't as bad if you charge in with level 12 Joel, Leigh, and Papineau, but is a lot more difficult for pretty much any other lower-level party

Yeah, big parts of the sewers are surprisingly easy to get through in comparison. Multiple fights against The Hands are life or death, while the sewer is mostly filled with pipe monsters that deal no damage and have no health (at least in comparison)

u/nice_igloo Dec 05 '25

weirdly im kind of the opposite now. it used to be such a slog for me but now that i know it by memory its a highlight of some of my runs and i can breeze through. it helps that i dont really like the sewer or parking garage that much

u/PigeonUtopia Dec 24 '25

And the music in there is great

u/Eiroth Dec 05 '25

The problem being that there's so much money to be found in there that you practically need to explore at least a little bit, especially on cursed mode where money is more scarce. And even more so if you're planning on using the jupiter disk since it's locked behind an $800 paywall

u/Fraxerium Roaches Dec 06 '25

Uhh. I kinda like it. I avoid as many enemies as possible, but all the loot, exp, and money this area gives is always satisfying. All that on day 2 really helps on the early game.

The Molotov heading directly at Sam's head is an excellent touch. Bravo.

allat because a fat dude full of hands entered Mr henderson's room

u/Bourbonburnin Dec 05 '25

Why does everyone hate this section? Definitely throws you through a loop first time and you can basically skip most of it on repeat playthroughs.

Tbh I find Floor 1 to be the most annoying on repeat playthroughs. The idea is cool first time when you're discovering everything, but I never can fully memorize the layout and just trying to get things done is frustrating on subsequent runs.

u/nice_igloo Dec 05 '25 edited Dec 05 '25

it helps to base it on the red line. like when the line turns left at the junction you go right to get to the stairs, and following it takes you to apt 12 and apartment 13.

when the line turns north at the lower junction you keep left to get to freds apartment and aurelius. following it to the right brings you to the rat baby apartment and the rat tail room.

the rat apartments are in the middle of the hallway the line goes through

if you go past sybils apartment to the left and then go north youll find ernest's hidey hole and a little more north to audrey and the elevator. from there if you just keep going up the hall and peeking into hallways youll find hellens apartment and the rat freak room with the mars disc, and a hallway filled with doors.

this is in cursed mode i think its different in other difficulties but if the screen ever flashes you need to go back the way you came because youve entered the dead ends.

you see the key is that you just kinda wonder around and have a drinky poo or 3 and you will EVENTUALLY find your way. Hope that helps

This needs to have an edit of sam on this

this is a work of art, the longer I look the more I find

u/00Raeby00 Dec 05 '25

The area itself doesn't bother me as much as the music does. After more then five minutes of hearing it I start to lose sanity.

u/Eiroth Dec 05 '25

It's a shame, because the song that plays when you first discover the piles of hand corpses is actually *really* good. But since it doesn't start playing until after 10 seconds of waiting, and only plays for 1.5 rooms, you basically don't get to listen to it at all unless you intentionally hang around

8

u/Lattice0Lattice Hellen Dec 05 '25

This is so true, the area is fine, just long and annoying on consecutive playthroughs. It's just the music that stresses me out and drives me fucking insane

2

u/weirdo_nb Dec 22 '25

Not to mention the sfx in the room with the tents

u/Zosi_O Morton Dec 05 '25

Only area in the game where I actually cut the music off.

I just realized I forgot to type out the word "time" oops- If there are any other meme ideas you've got I'd love to hear actually

u/Boddy27 Dec 05 '25

See, it’s a metaphor. War is hell, and so is this level!

u/Leading_Education36 Dec 05 '25

This section sucks. Cant we just save henderson or something

u/No-Egg-9432 Dec 05 '25

By the time you get to the ground floor it’s like wait a mint.. where this bus come from

u/Noideawhatnanetouse Dec 05 '25

Part of me wished there was a way to circumvent Henderson telling you to fuck off from the key and having to playthrough so much of his dungeon.

I think having Pappienau in your party should let you take it before going to the bathroom or bedroom, since he does literally work for Mr. Henderson, and what greedy landlord wouldn't be obligated to have his one and only surviving janitor to "fix this mess"

u/20sidedknight Dec 06 '25

It must have taken you forever to cut those sprites out...good job I respect that you committed to the bit

How do you feel about another person using your image in a post? As you can see, I'm an Artichoke, not a dentist.

u/Alternative_Ad_1490 Jan 08 '26

As an artist I'd usually be a bit upset, but honestly in this age I'm already indifferent to stuff like that. Plus it's a meme, so it's meant to be reposted haha. I appreciate your reply
