I'm looking forward to when there are enough PS5s in the wild for games to be current gen exclusive. Getting dual releases on PS4 is holding games back visually, and it'll hold back FF7R Pt 2. Elden Ring is a great game with tremendous art design that makes it look gorgeous no matter what, but...

Went ahead and bought the Bastard Sword for 3000 souls (or two levels worth at this point). Thing wrecks, and functions just like it does in other Souls games. Gonna look for more shards to upgrade it, probably buy the Fireball equivalent from that hub area too. So I guess my Wretch is going to...

Played for 2 and a half hours as my hot naked wretch. Got a bit of armor, but nothing for weapon drops, so I'm still using the starting club. Really want a sword, and there's a merchant selling a Bastard Sword for a cool 3000 souls (plus I need a few more points of Str). Considering it but I was...

Is that a guy or a girl? Cause I seriously can't tell with these models. Er, a Type A or a Type B, I'm not a monster

Making a hot chick is not easy in this game, but I managed it. Large majority of the "Type B" bodies/faces (especially the faces) are more masculine than the dudes are.

That gif is hysterical, I can't imagine how much energy that guy blew on those unnecessary rolls. I'm not surprised that the game is getting trashed a bit so far, people set their expectations on the goddamn moon. Also not surprised that the PC version has problems. PS5 all the way for me...

PS5 version is said to run much better than PC, at least for the moment. Resolution is the same, framerate is actually better on PS5. I'm sure this will get fixed but yeah.

Damn, that's fast. I wonder if RE2 Remake can be beaten that fast. I still have to play 1.

Yeah the controls are the big sticking point with enjoying Armored Core. The only one I got through was the first one. I bought it because it has one of the best game soundtracks I've ever heard. However when I played it, most of the levels had silence for BGM. I thought it was supposed to be...

I prefer the PSP version to the PR version myself, because of the extra Dawn of Souls areas and the new secret dungeon at the end (so like, five bonus areas IIRC, and they're all good). Don't have a PSP anymore though. I guess I could emulate when needed. Thing is, the PSP versions of 1, 2, and...

Yeah it's pretty idiotic. I enjoyed the hell out of FF1 PR but I'm not gonna buy the others until they're on consoles (PS specifically, 'cause I want trophies). I assume there'll be a $60 all-in-one, probably around the holiday season, but it's just as likely they'll just never do it because lol

Yeah pretty much that. Before class-based games drop there tends to be a lot of hand-wringing and fretting about what class to play because people don't really have anything else to "work on" until it arrives. Wretch here too. It gives you the most customizability. Just do that and figure it...

Yeah this one is really good, enough so for me to go for the plat. Unfortunately one of the few trophies I missed requires a full game replay (the "do all puzzle sections" one, because I skipped a few of the glitch areas later on). So I probably won't get back to it for a while. @Metalhead I...

I'm expecting it to be simultaneously the hardest Souls game AND the most accessible Souls game. What I mean is that I suspect the main quest's difficulty curve will be lighter than the other Souls games to allow more people time to git gud, while the optional stuff (which will probably be like...

XBox folks are gonna have like an 18 hour advantage on everyone else. Good thing we aren't having a race to beat the game. I've managed to ignore the hype for the past few months and enjoy what I have instead, but I gotta admit, as of today the hype is finally getting to me and I've been...

Looking into it more, it looks like the 6th Archstone is 100% the ice DLC from Souls 2. 6-1 looks like the frozen fields where you fight Lud and Zallen, 6-2 looks like the actual castle. I expected as much, but it's crazy to see it firsthand and realize you've already played it, more or less. I...

I'd go with the PS5 version. Growing up, my mom watched me play things pretty often, which was cool. Hard to find GFs as an adult that are as interested, most just sort of go do other stuff if I'm nolifing. Last thing my mom ever watched me play was Bloodborne in 2015 (she's still around) and...

Does AEW need a Wrestlemania? I.e. one show of the year that is portrayed as THE top show? I think they do. All Out could easily be spun into their Wrestlemania. Actually, 3 out of 4 of their PPVs could be their WM...all of them except Full Gear, really. I'd even say Revolution has...

Have you even seen a single black person in any of their games? I haven't. All of the characters should be black people, every last one of them, so that we can achieve true diversity. Until then, just say No to Fromsoft.

PSA: Remember to have a wank around 11:30 PM on Thursday, cause you won't have time on Friday+. Get your pipes clean and mean before Elden Ring drops!

Another Modern Warfare, huh? After the total debacle I had with Modern Warfare 2019 (spent a day trying to get it to work and gave up) I'm probably staying away from COD for a while. Unless they remaster MW3 so I can play that trilogy, which I assume don't have the completely ridiculous and...

I'm still trying to beat Street Fighter 1. Yeah, I've got the Switch collection with a ton of SF2/3/Alpha versions as well as SF1 (which is hard to find otherwise). I can't get anywhere with SF1, I just get murdered over and over again. I can squeak past the first fight >50% of the time, but not...

Happened to me when going for Seath's tail weapon on NG+. I chased his tail around hitting it while it ran away from me. Aimed for the tip and everything like you're supposed to. I hit it so many times that he was about to run out of HP and I had to reset. Second time, same thing, maybe on the...

I feel like sales are going to be significantly lower, but I'm probably wrong. The off the rails shit killed about 80% of my hype for Part 2. The 20% that's left is still a lot of hype, but I wonder how incredibly hyped I'd be if they hadn't flown off the rails and nuked them from orbit...

Any examples of this? That's awesome. EQ's devs have done that a bunch of times with things like Plane of War, reused cancelled zones in later expacs. Demons' 6th Archstone ---> Dark 2's snow DLC Dark 1's DLC was obviously designed specifically for that game. Bloodborne's optional area...

That's rough. I've been injury-plagued myself in the past and I identify with the "hang head off the side of the bed" thing. Not being able to sleep because of your injury bullshit is pretty much the worst thing.

I'll pay much closer attention to that DLC the next time I play Souls 2...if there is a next time. Had no idea about it the one time I did it. Hadn't even played Demon yet actually.

Oh awesome, I thought it was gonna be downloading all night on Thurs->Fri. I'll get it going today. Probably won't know whether to go Samurai or Wretch until I start the game, like those people who don't know who they're voting for until they're in the booth. The downside is that I'll probably...

Got this pre-bought on PSN with @Utnayan's money. I think it'll start downloading at midnight Thurs night. Full PS5 game download might take a while. My sleep schedule is fully whacked out and I'm sleeping like 4 hours a day at best, so the tough part here will just be actually being awake to...

Who would have thought that the makers of those odd Armored Core games (which had great soundtracks btw) would in 2021 be the belle of the ball in the world of game development.

The load times on PS5 really are insane. All of the PS4 games that had iffy loading times are way more playable on PS5. I'm gonna guess the loading times are like 1/3rd...that's a wild guess though.

I really hope that Space-Ebrietas thing is an actual boss fight and not just a cutscene. Wow. This looks like it MIGHT be as visually stunning as Demons' Souls Remake, still the most visually stunning thing I've played I think. It wasn't held back at all by last-gen hardware. Elden Ring being...

I'll admit it, I actually thought it was real. I had also just taken a big drag on a joint though, which is probably why it... made so much sense to me

I wonder if the Bloodborne remake (if it exists) will be a Bluepoint remake like Demons' Souls or if it'll be a straight-up remaster like Dark Souls Remastered. Or something in-between like Scholar of the First Sin. The remakes of those first 3 games wildly vary in quality IMO. The Demon remake...

On another note...the 6th Archstone in Demon's Souls has come up a lot on these threads. I assume the worlds were supposed to be the snowy wilderness shown in the intro, the ice castle, and probably like the castle tower or something similarly small for 6-3. Anyone have any idea of what the 3...

Yeah, it is. Typically I plow through a Souls NG+ (at least for a while). Bloodborne NG+ is rough right from the get-go. I think NG+ Gascoigne is about on the level of NG Gehrman, maybe even more dangerous. So you don't get to enjoy being OP for a while like you do in Souls NG+, it goes right...

You can always hit "Go Offline" in settings on PS5 (probably 4 too) and avoid getting invaded if you just aren't in the mood. Yeah, that. I also found the "backup to cloud save" option in PS5 to be super useful in my latest Dark Souls 1 run if I was concerned with losing progress or didn't...

Yeah I disagree, the DLC is a totally different story with new characters. Who knows if Part 2 will carry anything over file-wise. Has that been done successfully before in a series? I half expect Part 2 to have a bunch of completely new systems, probably get rid of the weapon-skills for...

When I was replaying Souls 1 recently I noticed that the Kiln of the First Flame is sorta shaped like a giant multi-layered crater (like the kind produced by a nuclear explosion) and it got me wondering if this was a post-post apocalyptic world where everything got nuked and they built the giant...
