    Dark Souls

    Same here. Need to make a decision before my next session: Do I slay the Giant Blacksmith to get his SL1-usable overpowered hammer? Or do I just stick to my holy club and pyros? I'll be fooked if I end up needing the guy's help and I think I'm fine without his weapon. If it's a yuge boost, then...

    Dark Souls

    Got about halfway through the game in 7 hours. Did pretty much every optional area/fight up to this point as well. Finished Hollows, defeated Sif, even some of Demon Ruins. Hardest fights so far were Sif and Capra Demon. The latter just because it's so in-your-face and can basically one-shot you...

    90s songs that were OK the first time, but gave you cancer after they were played nonstop for months

    Mmbop by Hansen Pretty much anything by Rihanna, Katy Perry, or Pitbull in the early 2010's That "That's just how I feel" song in the late 2010's

    Dark Souls

    That's a DLC zone IIRC, home to probably the game's toughest boss. Though personally I had more trouble with the Frigid Outskirts and the twin cats. As for Souls 1 SL1, I got a Reinforced Club and a Grass Crest Shield and those are helping a lot. Next time I play I'mma try and take out the bell...

    BBW are the ones calling them wings! I used to go to BBW fairly often like ten years ago and the wings were so much better back then. Or it might just be this particular store that's terrible.

    Yeah, I never go for boneless chicken normally. Was driving here so I went with the least mess, boneless with dry rub. Even the bone-in were terrible though.

    What the hell happened to Buffalo Wild Wings? The wings are tiny now. Before this I ordered a 10 piece boneless wings takeout order and got what was basically ten popcorn chicken pieces. They were probably 60% the size of the chicken nuggets you get at McDonalds. I was in total shock. Went back...

    Dark Souls

    This video is kinda nuts lol Guy beelines right for Quelaag and basically sploits that fight and Ceaseless Discharge, then gets all the major fire spells before he even does anything else. That seems like a good way to make the SL1 run significantly easier from the get-go, but I also wonder if...

    Dark Souls

    I'll make sure to get those two Combustions, sounds like that was the one real issue you ran into. Four Kings is probably gonna be ass and a half to fight. While I never really had much trouble with O&S, Four Kings was a horrendous fight on my last couple plays. Dunno what it is about that one...

    What are you playing?

    XC2 being Xenoblade 2? I didn't know it had anything like that. Sounds more like a phone game. I only got like 10% of the way through that one before I lost interest, good music though. Was planning on doing Nioh or more CRPGs, but instead I'm replaying Dark Souls 1. Again. Fromsoft games are...

    General Gaming News and Discussion

    There's no way GTA6 is going to cost $140 or whatever people were saying. The base game will probably be $70. People need to stop freaking out over every rumor like it's fact (the Youtube clickbait industry isn't helping).

    They gave you Saints Row and Forspoken with your PS5? Wow. I'd ask for a refund.

    Starfield - Fallout fallout that isn't ES6

    Sounds like a Woke Gulag. Starting with something awe-inspiring is definitely the way to go. I love Mass Effect (well, 1 and 2) and I love Fallout (well, 3 and NV) so I was pretty stoked at the idea of this game. Been given so much pause though. Doesn't help that I don't have time for it anyway...

    Starfield - Fallout fallout that isn't ES6

    Which game is that from? Did they ever show / tell you what the megastructures were? Even if not, it's pretty crazy how many interesting lore-only worlds there were in ME1 and 2. Just an incredible couple of games with a lot of imagination. I feel like imagination is lacking in a lot of newer...

    Armored Core VI Fires of Rubicon (FromSoftware)

    That tower defense level late in the game, try as I might, I couldn't seem to do much about the suicide drone swarm near the end. Using quad shotguns probably didn't help there, but yeah, even when I tried it with 2x gatliings most of them still got through no matter what.

    Dark Souls

    I've got nothing to do for the next 2 and a half days and got this crazy urge to try a level 1 playthrough of a From game. Never tried anything like that before and they say Souls 1 is the easiest From game to attempt an SL1 run. Any advice? Suggested weapons / rings / spells etc? All I know...

    GBA is super easy to emulate too. There's a ton of untapped gold on that system for me because I pretty much missed that era. Doubt I'll ever get around to it but every time I turn around I find out about some GBA great that I totally missed. Kaiser Dragon is a fun fight and it's interesting to...

    Was just wondering that. For a second I thought they'd planned an FF6 3D after FF4 3D and that was the art before it was scrapped. Then wondered how I never heard about this. Then noticed at least two of the screenshots on the back are from the Dissidia games. So yeah I guess this one is just...

    From a dialogue and art standpoint you can probably go Advance version pretty safely. For anyone wondering, best versions IMO: FF1 - PSP (Dawn of Souls HD, basically) FF2 - PSP FF3 - Pixel Remaster FF4 - PSP FF5 - Advance FF6 - Advance This gives you the copious amounts of extra content in...

    I could definitely see Kohlingen to Darill's Tomb being one of the 3-split late WoB scenarios. The airship gets grounded late in WoB for a while, and I could see it getting shredded during the Espers Unleashed or even the FC rising. So Setzer having to get them a new airship while other...

    Final Fantasy: Record Keeper - Mobile Gaming Cash Grab

    Doesn't this start with Before Crisis? I'm guessing Matt is one of the Turks in that game. IIRC the game is about the Turks. I really have no idea what to expect from this. So far I played long enough to get to the tutorial fight. I'm not surprised they blow their wad with Cloud vs Sephiroth...

    Dredd 2 (2026 Confirmed!)

    Is Judge Death supernatural? Cause from what I've seen it looks pretty damn supernatural and yeah they kind of avoided that tone in this movie. (Aside from psychics existing, which is more of a radiation thing) Still count me in on wanting to see Judge Death, if only because he's Dredd's...

    Armored Core VI Fires of Rubicon (FromSoftware)

    I fought . So on a replay I'd need to do the first one. I'm pretty sure I'm just gonna do the one run for now though so I wanted to fight both potential end bosses. Then again an NG+ would probably be really fast...

    Lords of the Fallen

    Went and finished this up, I guess I left off like 90% of the way through on my initial run. The path to Annihilator was so confusing and irritating that I shelved it for a month. Somehow figured it out when I started again. Turns out that was the second to last area. Game was pretty easy, and...

    Final Fantasy: Record Keeper - Mobile Gaming Cash Grab

    So it isn't the straight Compilation of FF7 remake/reimagining I was hoping for, but also isn't the straight-battle FFRK style game I'd also accept... it's some weird middle ground.

    That's all pretty interesting. Few things fascinate me like cut or modified SNES RPGs and their "original scope". FF6 makes a lot more sense now that I know it was episodic and stitched together. I think it's plausible that after Atma Weapon, the game could have gone into the Kefka Pillar...

    Armored Core VI Fires of Rubicon (FromSoftware)

    Finished the game. Good time, probably gonna be the best mech game on PS5 for a while. I finished it with quad legs and gatling/songbird or quad shotguns depending on the mission. Either seemed to work for crushing the endgame but I think 4x shotguns was best against bosses. Got both endings...

    The WoB is better, and for a long time I didn't even play it. Reading about the game in Nintendo Power as a teenager, WoR seemed like "the cool part" where all the action was. Then when I rented it, all the save files were in WoR. So I'd pretty much just pick up and play those. Also started a...

    So was the final boss going to be Emperor Gestahl? Up until the end of the Floating Continent he was pretty much the main antagonist and Kefka was just his stooge, half comic relief and half serious foe. Also wondering if the Floating Continent would have been a lot bigger under this scenario...

    Looks like the "Elite ran Punk off just like they ran Cody off!" canard has made a return. This means the Elite are Mind Flayers who had the power to manipulate Punk into getting into another fight and then go scream at TK in his locker room. Not sure how many times Cody has to debunk that he...

    Thanks for the correction, I can't keep these companies straight and I haven't spent much time looking at the WWE merger situation. If Endeavor is hands-off, then I don't think there's much chance Punk ends up in WWE. Like I said before, about 7 out of 8 main eventers there don't like him...

    Armored Core VI Fires of Rubicon (FromSoftware)

    How do you buy a 3rd and 4th of a particular weapon? It's only letting me buy two total of any particular weapon, one for each hand. I've got two Haldemans and two Zimmermans and switching between those. Yeah lasers are a bit too much trouble, with EN shortfalls and energy spec. I've got a...

    They've been talking about doing an FFX-3 for an insanely long time. Well, Kingdom Hearts 3 also took a really long time IIRC. Never played any of those but I remember a lot of "we're never getting KH3" talk. There was still more story to tell with FFX-3 so I'm fine with them doing it. Feels...

    Final Fantasy: Record Keeper - Mobile Gaming Cash Grab

    This right here is why I stopped playing the game. Never seen a game have so much "difficulty bloat" for lack of a better term. Edit: Ever Crisis is out today? Anyone else playing it? Had no idea it was gonna be out this soon. Been needing a phone game since I'm rarely home so this is perfect...

    Armored Core VI Fires of Rubicon (FromSoftware)

    Yeah I don't think I could do the "S rank all missions" thing. Sounds way too time-consuming. I was doing replays for all the stages up until Balteus and I only got a couple S-ranks in that time before I just couldn't be arsed with it anymore. The rest of the plat looks pretty doable, shame...

    Wat what? I'm saying that WWE is under new ownership and Vince/HHH no longer have final say, and that a large part of why Punk wasn't let go by AEW sooner is that a higher power (Warner Bros) wanted him on-board. I think Bullet Club Gold is intended to be a big deal, like possibly top stable...

    Armored Core VI Fires of Rubicon (FromSoftware)

    I defeated the last possible foe in the Arena and didn't get the Master of Arena trophy. It must expand the list in NG+ or something along those lines. Anyone going for the platinum? Sounds like @Zaide might be. I tend to plat From games but I'm not sure about this one, depends on how...

    Yeah I heard good things about SMT4. Sounds like 4 and 5 are probably the best QOL ones. I tried out 1 and 2 on the Super Famicom and they're ROUGH. They do that super-early 3D thing where you're moving down nondescript single-color hallways one block at a time in four directions. Was hoping...

    Armored Core VI Fires of Rubicon (FromSoftware)

    I didn't know you could spare anyone either. I've been chewing through most of the bosses in seconds, then occasionally finding a boss where I die like 10x trying to figure out what to do. Ice Worm was a particularly annoying one until I realized I had to equip the rail gun (and then it was...
