i played the demo for this that came with OPM so many times. only thing I can remember about it is the sfx that plays when a guy jumps down from a tower

been having a good time with returnal. probably should have held off for a goty edition but it's been good fun. Nice, responsive action, great sound design, awesome rumble.

this was probably one of the best boss fights ive done in recent times - the voice acting, the difficulty (took me about 10 tries after almost giving up a few times), just everything about it was so awesome

beat returnal. gameplay is really fun. game absolutely should not have been a roguelike, that made it incredibly not fun to beat. i was fueled by frustration to finally beat it and guess what that takes all the joy out of gaming. no catharsis upon landing the killing blow on the last boss or anything. just a feeling of good i can turn this off now.

i'm playing nier automata and i somehow missed out on the fact that this game does not have typical platinum combat(or rather it does it just doesn't matter), but the atmosphere and mood is a+. i'm really just using it as a brain break between studying for interviews.

what souls game should i attempt to bounce off of while I wait for HZW and Elden Ring to drop to $20 or get offered by PS+?

My current status:

- Demon Souls: Unplayed
- Dark Souls: Owned, Unplayed
- Dark Souls 2: Unplayed
- Dark Souls 3: Owned, abandoned somewhere after Iudex Gundyr (before Vordt of the Boreal Valley)
- Bloodborne: Owned, abandoned before cleric beast
- Sekiro: Owned, abandoned at the Bull.

I just... WANT to like this kind of game so bad.

I've only beat sekiro and demon's souls. And bounced of bloodborne but I say Sekiro is probably the best one to try and beat since it has short runs back to bosses. But I also think it has the least carry over in skills.

i'm having some weird fomo/decision fatigue with elden ring. i want to see all the things in one play through(because i know my adhd self and i never succeed at playing games again once i see credits).

i'm upset i missed some content in the first castle and i don't want that to happen again.

trust me - on a fresh play thru you’re gonna miss a ton of poo poo in a from game, it’s impossible to nail. and will be for some time until all these little guides come out as Miyazaki is insane with hiding stuff

do your best to explore as much as you can before a golden fog gate and even entire areas before the legacy dungeons but otherwise just enjoy the ride. look up something if you’re really curious. but npcs are just gonna bugger off sometimes and you won’t know why until you learn it’s cause you didn’t talk to a rock somewhere haha

yeah i just have to accept it.

kinda want to respec away from dex but not sure to what. dex is hella boring still using the starting uchi.

don't want to spoil anything for you. it's not story stuff. there are specific mines on the map(red cave mouths) that you can fight a boss in, get a bell bearing to give to the twin crones in the round table hold. they will sell the smithing stones correspondent to the level of the mine.

also gently caress the "secret" end zone in ER - its so cruel and punishing. beautifully designed but mob placement is a big gently caress you.

yes, lets run down this tree trunk with scarlet rot flowers while being pelted by near 1-shot bubble storms - holy gently caress. and it just keeps getting worse. oh, scarlet rot tree men swarm you, big knife hybrids, then crystal guys who respawn until you kill a snail, then a 99 int sorcerer duo with magic hammers and atomic bombs

after all that it's even WORSE

gently caress those snails. also i ran past those mages. gently caress em.

two tanks is more fun and now the single tank has more pressure to press w, make space, and not feed than before

doesn’t seem fun to me as a tank main

didn't even think about how much worse it is for tanks. definitely seems like it's set up for tanks to not have a great experience.

I have been for weeks while every game thread is motherfuckers talking about elden ring

it’s a long game. not everyone is going to hyperfocus on it. so the 60-80 hours it takes to beat is resulting in reactions coming in for months as people beat it at their own pace. that’s just the nature of long games.

since elden ring I’ve played kena(bounced off because the bosses are too easy and the world leading up to the bosses is very boring), fifa, and guilty gear strive. want to talk about those?

did a first to 10 with one of wife’s friend’s husbands in guilty gear strive. was up 7-4 at one point but ended up losing last round last game. that momentum swing was real.

felt really good to do some competitive play offline though. i noticed i get away with a lot of dumb poo poo on net play.
