Annnnnd we're done. I would have gotten this a few days sooner if I hadn't completely started my character over mid-week. I wasn't planning to get 100%, just play until I got bored and then move on to the next game. Problem is, you do not get bored with this game. I also upgraded all of my main...

Was about to go buy Nioh and play it next while I'm on a Souls kick, since it's $6 right now. Noticed the complete edition is $24 (digital only) and wasn't sure whether to get it instead. However my dilemma was answered for me, because it looks like there's a PS5 remaster of Nioh+Nioh 2+all...

Yeah I tried Sekiro and couldn't get into it because of how different it was. I like the Souls games where you have a range of options/weapons to deal with situations and Sekiro felt one-dimensional in comparison (get good at parrying, that's your option). IMO Nioh is more of a Souls game even...

Ghost is the "Assassin's Creed Japan" game that a ton of us were hoping they'd do next...except considerably better than it likely would have been. I've been trying to get into Valhalla and it just strikes me as dull. The visuals are impressive at least. Almost done with Demon's Souls 100% and...

I'd rank the first Dark at #1 in terms of world design and gameplay, with this second and Dark 2 a distant third. Dark 2 felt more like a B-Team production (which it was, IIRC) If Bloodborne counts as a Souls game I'd put it between Dark and this, just a shade under Dark. Haven't played Dark 3...

Where'd you guys farm the Gold Coin? I'm closing in on the plat and need one for one of the rings. I'm farming the Fat Official in Yuria's Tower but I'm wondering if there's a better one that's closer to an archstone. Edit: This thing ain't dropping

Yeah, I heard it's 1800/60 on PS5. I'm guessing on PS4 it's a choice of 1080/60 or 1440/30? Thing is, I fired it up on PS5 for a minute and it still has the two modes, so I'm not sure. The resolution mode seems to be in 60, but it still has framerate mode that looks lower-res and I'm not sure...

Don't have any of the new rings yet. They're basically all I have left to do besides the two character tendency rings and NG++ spell cleanup.

Crystal lizards respawn like regular enemies now (pretty sure they didn't before) so all ore-collecting is much faster than I remember. Bosses can drop Pure stones and I believe I got 3 different ones from that on my first run through of the game. World 5 was easy for me the first time, but now...

If a forum bro wants to trade kills to get Pure White Character Tendency shoot me a message. What this entails is alternating invasions and letting the defender(s) win until your characters reach Pure White Tendency (the upper left icon by the health meter will be glowing). Need to be up to...

In general, the -2 levels are much tougher than the -1 levels (in terms of mob HP/damage). So yeah, it does make more sense to run the -1 levels first rather than clearing all of each world as you go. Some of the bosses in this game are really easy while others aren't easy at all. This list is...

Right? After all of that, the fight with the boss was a relaxing de-stress. I started a new game and took on World 4 at SL1 as a test now that I know that world. Beat 4-1, then got about halfway through 4-2 before I got mauled enough and defaulted to the regular game. Back in the day I...

I'm having a pretty rough time. Got through most of the worlds without too much trouble even though I'm rusty at Souls. All I've got left now is 4-2 (and 1-4). I went with the Blueblood Sword build and I'm nowhere near it meeting its potential yet, still need a ton of Luck and Magic. The issue...

Where in the blue fuck is the photo/video folder on this system? PS4 had the "screen captures" thing right there front and center. Took some videos while playing Demon's Souls and wanted to review what happened in the latest one (got stunlocked when I was about to win a boss fight) and the...

Haven't played a Souls in a while so this is kicking my ass. Much more familiar with the Dark Souls games and Bloodborne than I am with this, so I was basically going in blind. I took on World 4 first since it's my favorite area. After a few hours of making slow progress, I found the Crescent...

I'm going to give this a try even if it means rushing world 5. Liked that weapon in the original and it gives me something to work towards from a stat-perspective because I was leveling a bit aimlessly. Game is real good to see again.

Yep, it's like 600 usable. Pretty terrible. I moved over some PS4 games but only a fraction of what I have, and already having to delete things to make room for like, a 10th game.

Just started this. I'm torn between Royalty and Knight. When I played this on PS3 I went Royalty and never really had any trouble with the game. I like Soul Arrow and starting at level 1, but I don't really want to do the same thing over again. Since I ranged everything down back then I think...

Saw this review and I'm worried, because his complaints about this game (and Odyssey) are the same exact issues I had with Odyssey. Namely the super-slow leveling (or rather, how long it takes to meet level requirements later) and the fact that it went on for so long. Neither game has any idea...

I've beaten all of the ACs at this point (except those 3 weird side-scrolling ones) so I have no issue going on to this one. However before that was the case, yeah, I was in exactly the same boat. Except it was Odyssey that I wanted to play but not until I finished Origins. I got through Origins...

When I picked mine up, I asked the store if they had a bag big enough for it, joking "so I can walk to my car without getting mugged". ...they did not have any bags big enough. I didn't get mugged, at least. So far I've spent most of the day installing and updating things and figuring out...

I probably saved thousands of dollars over the years by only buying games when I was ready to play them. Case in point, you buy something new for $60, finally get to playing it eight months later, and at that point it's worth $15 or something. Might as well just get things when you're actually...

If that actually works, that's a hell of an oversight. I might try buying 3 copies of Yakuza at Target, returning two, and seeing if the person at the service desk notices or does anything. In theory it'd take the free one off the transaction first. Edit: I probably won't but it's a fun...

In theory, factoring out shipping, you could make like $60 a pop by buying 3 games like this and then flipping them for full price. Yakuza is probably the best bet for holding its value. Problem right now is that there are so many sales that the values of these games will drop fast. Can get...

I was so looking forward to an enhanced Bloodborne replay pretty much right away on PS5. Oh well. Anyone know if God of War gets a boost? Ghost and Souls 3 getting boosts is good enough because I still haven't played either and they're top of the list. Between those, God of War, and Cyberpunk...

This gif is like 2010 me reading 2020 me's political opinions.

If you end up streaming Demon's Souls on launch, I'm there dude. I'll be playing it day one, provided the Gamestop doesn't get burned down by lunatics in the meantime (unfortunately, mine isn't on a base).

To make the PS5 seem like a bigger graphical leap, I've decided to go ahead and only play PS2 and 3 games until the 12th. The PS4 is off. This means the PS5 visuals are gonna be a huge jump from what I've been playing when I get it. I finally finished God of War 2 (my last GoW). Now Dead Space...

I damn near 100%'d this, but I couldn't for the life of me get past Top Secrets (the Bahamut part always got me). I studied up online and everything. Ended up playing Hard Mode WITHOUT the Gotterdammerung. I beat every chapter except 17/18 (which I didn't try) and 9. Got Hell House down to 10%...

Do we know for sure what enhancements this will have on PS5? I started it on PS4 and it looks so incredible that I stopped playing with the intention of starting over on PS5.

It's definitely worth it, but moreso if you have nostalgia for the original. Playing it when you remember / are familiar with the original is a pretty sublime experience. If you're playing LA for the first time you could probably just replace the original with the new version altogether. It...

They're IN Europe, but @Szlia is correct that they aren't a PART of Europe. Here's the EU: I visited Lucerne not too long ago and I can confirm that Switzerland has their own way of doing everything completely separate from the rest of Europe. They don't use the same currency either. If I...

I've got the 2016 LG 55'' curved 4K OLED. Got it during the (temporary?) craze for curved flatscreens. It is by FAR the best TV I've ever owned, and annihilates my 55'' Sony 4K and 47'' Samsung 1080p in picture quality. I don't need another TV any time soon but if I did I'd probably spring for...

Disney's logo being on remotes triggers me, given what that company has gotten away with. On a lighter note, right now I'm figuring out what I want to play before the PS5 launch. I'm gonna go back to the PS3 and only play that for now so that the PS5 feels like a big graphical leap. Not...

To echo what other people are saying, this just gives me more time with Valhalla and Demon's Souls. Was going to have to rush to get through both of them in eight days (and I probably wouldn't have, even though DeS is a one-day speedrun for me).

The "gross" was a joke. "She's got five boyfriends (gross)". Sound it out loud and the parenthetic part makes more sense. I also think having five dudes IS much less hygenic than having three women, from a personal perspective, but it was no knock on her achievements, just a comic aside. Also...

This is awesome. I wanted a black PS5, but now that I look at the options, the Chromatic/metal one is unique and reminds me a little of the original Playstation color. I'm only going to fool with changing the plates once, so this is a tough one.

I saw a $55 two-day Halloween weekend round-trip from Providence to Miami recently. Can't remember where. But yeah, that's how cheap things are getting. Funny thing is, I was at the airport the other day and asked about a that-evening flight to Amsterdam. Figured if it was dirt-cheap and had a...

Maybe next election year we can go after firefighters. People can burn some cities after it turns out that firefighters kill 3 people a year in a country of 330 million, while all of the big corporations offer their solemn condolences on the 3 deaths, even though 2/3rds of them turn out to be...

I'm pretty tired of seeing that fist everywhere. Every time I see it I think of cringy tiktok videos of elf-kin talking about punching Nazis.
