Yorkshire Pudding posted:I feel like I'm the only person left alive who genuinely cannot tell the difference between graphics on various systems. Like if I look at a side by side comparison I can say "Oh yeah, this one looks better", but not once in the past 15 years have I been playing a game and thought "Oh this would look better on PC/PS4/Xbox". wolfenstein 2 for the switch disappointed me a lil graphics wise lol

Cowcaster posted:i have no qualms with your choices or reasons behind them but i'd just like to point out that there's no guarantee that there will be a preload option available for sekiro, unless from software has done so in the past (i don't typically preorder things so i'm not sure one way or the other). there's also no guarantee that part of weird problems with the game at launch won't include a lot of pc port jankery, from's gotten better about it over the years but i don't think that there's ever been an example of their ports being 100% solid and perfect from the jump. every fromsoft game this gen has worked flawlessly from moment 1, with preloads. only exception might be bloodborne load screens

s.i.r.e. posted:What he's saying is what you're basically saying, there's very few builds in Bloodborne that are generally good all other builds are basically worthless unless you're doing some gimmick build because you're a minmaxing poopsocker that's mastered the game. When everyone's build basically ends up being one of two things, there really isn't much of a point in a stats system. the point is to allow players to choose between health, stamina or damage when they level up, and to add an element of verisimilitude to their character progression. it wouldnt be an rpg if any character could use any weapon or tool

acksplode posted:If that's the full list of options, then you don't need a big stats system that just lets you steer into obvious dead ends. This could just as well be modeled with an ability tree, without falsely implying that you have a lot of knobs to experiment with. Contrast with say the original Fallout games, which also modeled character attributes as a series of stats, but every stat had a meaningful impact on the gameplay at every level, and each was viable for maxing, even luck. theres only six stats in bloodborne and two of them are health/stamina, it would be a very boring skill tree. bloodbornes stats are great. they break down as such: vitality, which is health endurance, which is stamina strength, which increases damage done by big and brutal weapons skill, which increases damage done by fast and vicious weapons bloodtinge, which increases damage done by weapons that rely on the intake or output of blood arcane, which dictates the players ability to make use of bizarre and confusing weapons and tools the stats make sense diagetically and allow the player to build a character they like while also removing the ability to accidentally invest in worthless stats. its good

uber_stoat posted:none of these games are that hard, really, once you put in some time. there's this twitch guy I watch when I am bored who has apparently made it his life's work to play through all the soulsborne games in a row without getting hit once. and he does it, over and over. it's a purgatorial task and I question his sanity but he does it. youre basically saying diving isnt hard because you know an olympic diver who does olympic dives every day

DLC Inc posted:so many of the written reviews I've read say poo poo like "im terrible at this game" which makes me think they didn't even get that far and are just following the same credo as others do whenever a Naughty Dog/Fromsoft/Zelda game comes out, just assign it a 9 and call it a day, probably gonna wait for a Giant Bomb postgame takes since the guy who plays these actually seems like he'd know about the intricacies of what makes it different. brad plays them at giantbomb and hes terrible at them and has consistently been proven a buffoon.......but he does always beat them, i think

DLC Inc posted:seems odd that this would be the hardest when this one now has more instadeath sneak kills and a legit grappling hook option to jet out of most enemy encounters on the fly. I assumed those things would be a way to mitigate tougher encounters. bosses are probably really hard since its way less clear what strategies will work

The lock on is the biggest problem because of grapple points all over, but I beat it first try. Still have no idea how far I am in the game, but it feels like more than 50%. never saw a followup to this post......

Grapplejack posted:If I have any advice for people just starting the game it's spend all of your money on spirit emblems as often as you possibly can. You're going to lose a ton of that early game money anyway while learning and spirit emblems go up in price to 50 sen eventually, so it's good to build a cheap backlog just in case. it was ridiculous that people didnt figure this out with bloodborne
