    Castlevania

    I don't know how she is in this show, but for my money, gang, Maria in SOTN is one of the hottest game-babes in gaming history.

    Mortal Kombat 1

    Any lore hounds in here able to tell me if I'm getting all of this right? Googling it resulted in a bunch of timelines and a general confusing mess. As I understand it: MK1-3: Shao Khan tries to take over Earthrealm, loses. Retreats back to Outworld after 3 MK4: Shinnok and Quan-Chi do things...

    Lords of the Fallen

    It won't help now, but yeah I figured I had to go that way. I might try this again at a later time when I need a Soulsborne and nothing new's readily available.

    Retro Game of the Month March 2018: Castlevania: Symphony of the Night (Playstation)

    Playing this for Halloween. 2nd playthrough ever. PS4 version has playable Maria like Saturn, have to beat the game once though. May platinum it. Such a great game. That said, I sure ran real far without a save point here, think I took a wrong turn or something. I definitely prefer Super...

    Castlevania

    I think Simon Belmont would work better as a movie. Maybe two movies, one for CV1 and one for CV2. Count me in as someone who kinda didn't want to just skip over him, but without a supporting cast or a ton to do, I think you could only get a couple movies out of it. Both could be kind of horror...

    Lords of the Fallen

    This is where I stopped. Door doesn't budge, walkway to the left has a pull able bridge in the dark world. There's no giant walkway.

    Project Quarm - 1 Box Planes of Power

    This has OG spell effects? Of course it does...damn that's awesome. I really miss the old spell effects, and TLPs aren't gonna give you that

    Metroid Dread

    That's the worst, when you miss something. I remember MD being vaguer than the other games in the series. Has anyone tried easy mode? Considered giving this a second runthrough to see if I like it more if it isn't such a brutal slog. All they really need to do is lower the damage output of...

    Lords of the Fallen

    Ended up returning this one, just wasn't jiving with me at all. The visuals were, I dunno, blurry or something, so when I moved around there was this weird disconnect. Played on Performance because Quality resembled a slideshow on PS5. Turned off Motion Blur. Still just wasn't jiving with me...

    Lords of the Fallen

    The ranged mobs are the big annoyance for me And also this. I really just wanted a From-like Souls 4 type game that kept it simple. This tries some new stuff and none of it really works. The Dark World looks like everything is covered in spooge. It's less dark/menacing and more just...

    Lords of the Fallen

    Personally I haven't gotten lost yet. Seems like you have to make sure to shine the lantern everywhere which is a little annoying. I loved the "light and dark world" mechanic in Link to the Past and Metroid Prime 2, but here, I don't know, something about it's rubbing me the wrong way. Maybe...

    Lords of the Fallen

    I'm not really into "where the fuck do I go" type games. I'll give this another good shot but I might actually end up returning it. Nothing about it jumped out at me as being must-play and it seems uneven AF in the two hours or so I spent on it. Was also hoping for something a bit more visually...

    Lords of the Fallen

    It's giving me Pieta matches now that I'm further on (and also matches for SoG guy still). Multiplayer's really weird. On the latest one Pieta turned grey-meter and I couldn't damage it anymore, while the host was still able to do damage. It just stayed like that until I eventually got ganked...

    Lords of the Fallen

    I don't get the multiplayer at all. Before the first boss I wanted to get a couple levels and figured it'd be more fun to help people beat the first boss a few times rather than grinding the levels out. Did that with Elden Ring IIRC, beat Margit a bunch of times helping other people before I did...

    Project Quarm - 1 Box Planes of Power

    So what I'm hearing is that Faceless and Secrets are using the Israel-Hamas conflict to distract everyone from their Russian collusion. WHO ORDERED THE QUAKE??

    EQ TLP - Mischief (Free Trade / Random Loot)

    I thought true box automatically got removed at TSS? Like they'd relax it (to 3) at OoW and then get rid of it at TSS. Thought that was on all TLPs. Unless I'm totally remembering wrong here. I got used to just keeping two spare laptops around.

    Dark Souls 1, 2, and 3...

    Yeah the ice castle itself is the good part. The snow plain with the cats seems unfinished, or like an overextended boss run. The ice DLC has 3 bosses and 3 main sections, just like a Demon Souls archstone. I bet they also used some of that scrapped area in the Painted World (Souls 1) and the...

    Dark Souls 1, 2, and 3...

    DS2's DLCs are awesome. Well, Sunken King is merely good, but I thought the fire and ice DLCs were probably better than the main game. My theory is that the Ivory King DLC was a repurposing of the snow lands in the scrapped 6th Archstone of Demon Souls. Which might explain why it's so good, if...

    Lords of the Fallen

    Alright, I'm getting this tomorrow night. I'll take any other starting out advice for Preacher and the game in general, sounds pretty hard.

    Lords of the Fallen

    Alright I'll go ahead and grab this tomorrow night prolly. Should I be a Preacher or a Ranger? I love Bloodborne and the latter looks like Bloodborne. The former could be interesting played as a paladin though. Does this have scaling like in Souls? Cause if the lightsaber is based off the...

    Lords of the Fallen

    There's a lightsaber? Now I definitely want to play this. If it's a literal lightsaber I mean. I saw a boss that used a lightsaber in one of the clips I watched, I assume there's a connection. Preacher is like the cleric type class I'm guessing? Gets cleric spells and can also fight to an...

    Dark Souls 1, 2, and 3...

    Souls 2 is pretty good as it goes on, but you can tell it was made by the Fromsoft B-Team. Make sure you have the Scholar of the First Sin version. I wouldn't "power through" it because it's kind of long. It's something you don't rush IMO. Personally I'm fine with it but if you aren't you might...

    Lords of the Fallen

    Seems like the reviews of this game are all either A) It's awesome and a true new-gen Souslike, or B) It sucks Monkey Fuck Not sure what to believe at the moment so I keep going back and forth about whether to get it / spend the time. I don't care about framerate, I do care about world/level...

    Project Quarm - 1 Box Planes of Power

    Are they in Najena on this server? I'd say going straight for that camp at one's earliest convenience is definitely the way to do things. @Gask Yes, you lose Slam. AFAIK you keep stun immunity

    Everquest - Live Servers

    Yeah, turning off names and turning everyone into stick figures is a good way to optimize raid framerate if playing on a subpar machine. Probably makes things kind of dull though

    Final Fantasy I-VI Pixel Remaster Series

    There's a general FF thread like Denamian said and in the future we should put general FF questions there. Might even want to let this thread sorta go by the wayside since very few people are still playing the Pixel Remasters at this point. So any further questions you should put there...

    Final Fantasy I-VI Pixel Remaster Series

    Agreed on both counts, it was kind of baffling. I assume the subscriber base had really plummeted. When I was playing it a lot in the mid to late 2010's there were a ton of people playing it, knew a few people in RL offhand who were playing it even. Every time I tried to revisit it, I quickly...

    Lords of the Fallen

    This have difficulty-mitigating options (summons, spells, etc)? Not sure I have the energy for another ass-beatingly difficult game after Lies of P (and before that SL1 Dark Souls)

    Everquest - Live Servers

    The last expansion didn't interest me at all and this one kinda doesn't either. Not sure what the lore here is but at least it's something new I suppose. Looks more like a LoY-style content pack. Whole thing has a "final expansion" kind of vibe to it with it being the retirement home for heroes...

    Lies of P (Souls-like)

    Nonexistent, it took me around 35 hours to beat the game and I plowed through most of it quick too.

    As I scrolled down I expected to see her sitting on Aerith's face. Or Cloud's if desperate enough. Disappointed.

    Ahsoka

    I'm not gonna watch this, but it really piqued my interest to hear they were finally doing something with Thrawn. The problem is what you say here: The sequel trilogy fucks everything up. Any post-Return of the Jedi material now has very little actual gravitas because we already know how things...

    Project Quarm - 1 Box Planes of Power

    That GFay story reminded me of when I tried doing a Ranger SSF Permadeath on Aradune (I think) because Zaide was doing the Paladin one at the time. It seemed really exciting on paper, then when it took me an age and a half to solo to level 3 in GFay I was like "...I think I'm too old for this"...

    Lords of the Fallen

    What'd Fextralife do? And yeah this game looks really good, but derivative as fuck (as is tradition for this studio). I like the light effects a lot.

    Nintendo Switch (previously NX)

    Yeah, I'd love to see a Mario, Zelda, or Metroid game on PS5. Switch visuals are kinda pathetic at this point, at least on a TV. I know people think Nintendo's strength is innovation with hardware design, but really, I could do without innovations like motion controls going forward. I do like...

    Whats rustling your jimmies?

    Same here, every single day I encounter traffic slowed to a crawl due to an accident. Never seen so many accidents so frequently before the last couple years and it seems to be getting worse and worse. Lately it's every day. Just constant accident backups and 2-4 car pileups. 99% of the ones I...

    Sekiro: Shadows Die Twice (From Software)

    Jebus, that fight looked amazing. If From ever added anything to this, a free DLC that's just a Malenia fight would be a good choice. That's something that threw me off quite a bit. In Souls (and pretty much every other game of their genre) you put your block down to speed up endurance...

    Lords of the Fallen

    I was gonna get this day one, but Lies of P kinda stole all its thunder and I got my Bloodborne-like fix for now from that. Looking forward to seeing how this one gets received though. I hope it's a lot better than the previous LOTF.
