any love for the beasthunter saif itt? I've grown quite fond of it after forcing myself to use it in my last run.Sakurazuka posted:The cane is legit one of the best weapons in the game though, it just takes a bit longer to get going. I used to think the threaded cane was garbagio, while I have since seen the error of my ways I wouldn't call it the best weapon in the game. that's just absurd.

that was phrased poorly, I meant to say that vials and bullets would essentially work the same as the dark souls estus system. i.e. you would never run out of them, you would always get 20 "charges" of each after dying

lite_sleepr posted:Got the blood starved beast to within a mircon of health, shot a pistol at him as soon as he got up, but it didn't register. He leaped at me and hold killed me. Keep going! I believe in you! Also since I can't play the game for the first time again your posts are the next best thing funny story: when I watched my buddy play for the first time, he got one of the early bosses down to a sliver of health. he ran out of health vials after trying to attack and getting staggered. so I yelled out impulsively "just shoot'um!!!" he emptied like 6 bullets from his pistol into the thing and it died, we both jumped up and cheered. thinking about it still brings a sparkle to my eye

acksplode posted:I read that Paleblood Hunt doc a few weeks ago and it surfaced a lot of interesting details I hadn't noticed, but ultimately I thought it was overwrought and had a flat and overcomplicated theory of everything. It didn't really address the cyclical nature of the hunt that's implied by notes like "To escape this dreadful Hunter's Dream, halt the source of the spreading scourge of beasts, lest the night carry on forever" and "Seek paleblood to transcend the hunt." In my current replay I just got to Hypogean Gaol, and I saw a couple notes on the ground that got me thinking about lore again: I'd never heard of this write-up before, definitely gonna tear into that over the weekend. I really wish jerks sans frontieres would do some more bloodborne analysis videos

on my first try I got the boss who is generally agreed to be the hardest boss in the entire game down to 1/10 of its health. I then proceeded to try and fail a few dozen more times before grinding through some chalices and coming back and three-shotting it

in Dark Souls there are two to four npcs who explicitly outline what you have to do and why you're doing it. in Bloodborne the "plot" is almost exclusively delivered through glowing sticky notes scattered throughout the game. it fits the mood of the game though

I honestly put JSF above Redgrave because 2/3 of that google doc is rambling speculation, not to mention he contradicts himself multiple times. JSF doesn't make any statements without exhaustively exploring evidence; each of his videos have a clear intent that is well expressed.

How far have people been able to go without going to the Hunter's Dream from the start of the game (whether through death or a lamp)? I imagine if you ground out gems and bought a bunch of weapon copies in NG it's entirely possible to beat the game in NG+ without going to the Dream until after Mergo. During NG I would think it's almost impossible to progress after Gascoigne.Kontradaz posted:God I wish this game was out on PC, playing on a PS4 feels like I'm handicapped and its super unpleasant. The downsides of being a PC gamer my whole life Idk I've been getting some use out of the PS4. 30 fps never really bothered me. And it feels good to only click two or three buttons and immediately switch between BB, Netflix, Youtube, etc.

beep by grandpa posted:Are there any hazards in this game that your dodge roll's reduced profile would help you avoid better than the quickstep? Not from its i-frames but from being low to the ground. one thing I wish was in the game is tactical gestures. like, gestures that are quite clearly meant to be used in dodging very specific attacks. for example you could dive bomb onto the ground to dodge an elevated horizontal sweep attack, or do a small sidestep turn to avoid a bullet. you could probably incorporate those into my second idea, which is running gestures; that is, if you activate a gesture while running you get a special animation. for example if you did "sit down" while running you drop to your knees and do a slide what I'm saying is, I want mirror's edgeborne

for me his blast attacks (both the aoe and the wave) are highly telegraphed and easily dodgable. the former is the same as the stray demon's aoe attack from dark souls 1. the latter you just have to worry about getting out of the way when he slams the sword into the ground and then you have years to get a combo on him. it's his normal sword swings that always gently caress me up because of how erratic their timing is, and how they are powerful enough to take away half my health (at the least) which requires a health vial. at least if you gently caress up dodging his aoe or the wave you die instantly and don't waste any vials

maybe they'll let From continue the pattern of making original IPs that are exclusive to the current playstation iteration (demon's souls for ps3, bloodborne for ps4). egyptian souls on the ps5 e: or if not souls-style than something that uses ancient egyptian theology

It seems most people find Ludwig's first form much more difficult than his second, but I'm the opposite. Maybe I just have more practice with his beast form due to it being first, or that his first form's attacks are much more distinct and identifiable, but the timing of his sword swings in his sane form always fucks me up.

Bad Seafood posted:Bloodborne's a good game but I can't say I disagree with Sleepr's assessment of Yahar'gul, Electric Boogaloo. It's the most annoying area in bloodborne, but the least-annoying "most-annoying area in a soulsborne game." Yahargul part 2 doesn't hold a candle to (spoilers for the other souls games) Defilement, Dukes Archives, Shrine of Amana, or the run from Irithyll to Anor Londo.

My friend told me when he got the DLC he ran around nabbing all the items and having a heart attack whenever a hunter came out of nowhere and owned him. I never understood that, why not wait until you've leveled up a bit and practice fighting them so they aren't harassing you as much?
