sk-discussion

[sage glade]

change that to 'if' bucko

[wise whale]

There’s also types of tools

[cedar trench]

its still aid

[ocean mulch]

There's 2 slots for all three tool types

[cedar trench]

this tool in particular also seems to be a pin you can place down and watch enemies step on it and die a brutal death

[wise whale]

Plus it might get changed?

[sage glade]

inspired by lego

[cedar trench]

true but that doesnt feel balanced at all

[sudden magnet]

thats just a fucking tack

[willow carbon]

where the hell was this

[uncut citrus]

yeah, probably whats going on

[wise whale]

In the game

[cedar trench]

the design doesnt feel complex but honestly weve had worse AND it may get changed

[lone lichen]

image comes from a magazine article from the end of 2020

[cedar trench]

remember they overhauled an entire room in deep docks i feel like at tc they wake up make the game 5 times over eat work out and then get out of bed

[willow carbon]

i hope the last boss is hard but not as hard as nkg

[hollow terrace]

@wise whale next time don’t skate around warnings with reacts

[lone lichen]

from what i remember of the article, difficulty is meant to be comparable to hk, so i'd expect (and personally want) a few optional bosses that are on that level

[cedar trench]

also edge gave us official progression information which i think is really lovely

[willow carbon]

maybe they should do a easy or hard mode (i dont want this tho)

[cedar trench]

but the 2 mask damage at the start of the game feels like hell

[lone lichen]

depending on how silk soul works, it may function as a hard mode

[serene chasm]

easy mode it the regular game. Hard mode is Silk soul

[coarse leaf]

i want a version of godhome where you can refight bosses, do a boss rush, have handicaps like the bindings and do something like radiant/damageless
the most fun in HK i had in godhome honestly

[cedar trench]

if graig ever comes up ill ask him how hard this change in damage progression affects him

[serene chasm]

doubt he would tell you

[cedar trench]

its an interesting question

[lone lichen]

there's precedent, the large husks in crossroads had an attack that did 2 masks and you can get to fog canyon pretty early

[serene chasm]

worth a shot I guess

[willow carbon]

is silksong comeing this month or no

[serene chasm]

no

[worthy lichen]

spike factory from bloons tower defense

duality of man

[lone lichen]

extremely unlikely, i think if it were coming out this month we'd have gotten the release date by now

[worthy lichen]

In all honesty, I doubt it, but i hope for news

[willow carbon]

maybe next month

[cedar trench]

true, but that crossroad enemy was meant to be a challenge to the player guarding a grub and tbh fog canyon is post dash

i feel like marrow is the equivalent to getting to cornifer in greenpath/ancestral mound
as the magazine says you get there right after bonebottom which seems to be a hub town and we did see moss grotto gameplay so

i feel like the progression will be faster in this sense

[lone lichen]

there's one of those enemies directly on the path to false knight

[cedar trench]

i may have forgotten then

still, i feel like they are a single outlier

the hazards seem to be varied in the marrow's case and there may be more entities with a 2 mask damage output

[lone lichen]

yeah, hard to say exactly what it'll look like

[opaque sigil]

In HK the early two damage enemies and hazards were easy to avoid, SS had two (plausibly non-optional) bosses capable of doing it in the early game

[cedar trench]

graig once told us that HK and SS are incredibly different difficulty wise (as in, how a hk player may find ss difficult regardless of experience)

[still elm]

The Marrow is pretty early in the game then

[cedar trench]

seems to be

[lone lichen]

i've seen graig posts talking about the games being very different, but i don't remember any comments about difficulty specifically

[opaque sigil]

There is one of those crossguards in the main route but the room is built so that you don't actually have to fight it

[cedar trench]

mind the edit!!

[willow carbon]

silksong should do more secret room that goes into lore

[cedar trench]

i would love more weaver's den-esque areas yeah

[lone lichen]

yeah, different skillsets

[opaque sigil]

That's not really a difference in difficulty so much as catering to differing skillsets

[cedar trench]

i worded that like manure ppf

[coarse leaf]

thats probably cause the movement and attacks will be quite different?

[cedar trench]

definitelky

[carmine sapphire]

Because silksong is very different, like it has different controls

And you cant down slash..?

[burnt topaz]

different abilities, fight pacing and stuff

[cedar trench]

yeah, it seems to be more diagonal

[burnt topaz]

you still seem to be very agile after a downslash

[cedar trench]

also they talk about the goomba trope in edge

[carmine sapphire]

No more pogo-ing enemies!

[burnt topaz]

but we dont know if itd be very effective pogoing

[coarse leaf]

pogo-ing was so OP sometimes in HK

[burnt topaz]

i wouldnt really call it op

[carmine sapphire]

I mean yeah we have a down slash but its not exactly just a down slash, hornets goes forward and stuff

[cedar trench]

pogo ing was decent but the upslash enjoyers need to make their voices heard

WE WILL NOT STAND IN THE SHADOWS ANYMORE!!!!

[coarse leaf]

well for watcher knights for example i defninitely would

[carmine sapphire]

Dont we have an uplslash in ss?

[cedar trench]

yeah we definitely do

[burnt topaz]

yeah i didnt argue against that, im just saying that you can still appear to get a lot of mileage out of down slashing despite it being diagonal

[cedar trench]

i wanna come back to this

it really interests me

[carmine sapphire]

Yeah, its very cool even

[cedar trench]

you see, weve had similar enemies in hk

slash, jump dodge etc

but enemies that have weird interactions with hornet seem to be the base for ss's template of an enemy

so like, there is no "goomba" that moves left and right

even the simple moss guys have a surprise attack where they look like little skulls

and i think this will make ss combat much fresher

[burnt topaz]

yeah im super excited to see all the enemy types

[cedar trench]

especially considering how the player will have to adapt often, with enemies demanding the use of tools to get rid of them easily

for example imagine a fat guy that burrows underground and pops back up

you could beat him to death with your glorified walking cane, but you could also use the nuclear warhead tool to reduce him to dust in one blow

[burnt topaz]

also how enemies and bosses deflect tools, i wonder if thered be like a rps with tools and enemy types or something

[cedar trench]

i recall there being an interaction between the grappling hook and the scissor guys

[burnt topaz]

was that written in edge?

[cedar trench]

im... horrified at the implications of that but lets skim over it

[cedar trench]

obviously

[burnt topaz]

you take his scissors then he runs away screaming

[cedar trench]

no
he cuts your grappling hook off and you have to fix it which takes some time

or so i remember

[burnt topaz]

oh thats interesting

[cedar trench]

so im guessing this implies the grappling hook is also an offensive tool

you grab enemies with it and they are stunned and you can beat them to pulp

im all for quirky mobility tools being used for their non intended purposes

[burnt topaz]

even using it on the flying bugs in the clocktower for mobility hurt the bugs, i wouldnt be surprised if it can be used offensively

[cedar trench]

"ANN WHAT ARE YOU DOING WITH THE WALKING CANE"
"fishfg"

[burnt topaz]

[cedar trench]

honestly i would stop hoping for news at a certain date

because it basically collides with release at this point in time

[worthy lichen]

[cedar trench]

im not entirely convinced it will come out around this point in time however

my best bet, summer 2022

[coarse leaf]

same, probably summer 2022

[coarse leaf]

same, not enough time to release in February at all

sorry @sly summit

[cedar trench]

this year is not an unlikely pick however

[coarse leaf]

i think it'll be this year

[burnt topaz]

enough time for march though

[coarse leaf]

could be

[cedar trench]

come to think about it, this message by graig and the fact that they probably will only release news nearing release means that the game is around its final phases of development, however thats what my more hopeful side wants to think

ill leave it up to you to decide wether im not alright or if i have some bits of truth scattered around my words

[burnt topaz]

wait no im joking

[cedar trench]

march feels too close to today for me

[coarse leaf]

i think the same, they're actually finishing the game, and they want to finish it at this point

rememeber, they're working every day every week full time right now

[static rose]

daily reminder that team cherry are great

[carmine sapphire]

Also remember that they have a real life

[cunning geode]

debatable

[carmine sapphire]

Theyre not just team cherry, but people too, i hope

[coarse leaf]

They're people who work probably 8 or more hours a day from Monday to Friday on a videogame

[cedar trench]

i feel like thats their job and they like doing it

[coarse leaf]

also

[cedar trench]

so yeah they have a life in this sense and they definitely arent wasting their time instead of repeating their history assignment like a certain someone

[static rose]

||WOMBAT 😡 I HAVVE PERSONEL CONECTIONS WITH TEAM CHERRY 🍒 AND THEY TOLD ME 😃 THAT IF YOU DONT RELEASE SILKSONG 😭 THEN THEY WILL FIRE YOU 😔 ||

this message doesnt exist anymore, dont click on the spoiler

[cunning geode]

either that or i delete you

[static rose]

hmmm

[cedar trench]

no i think it holds some truth

[coarse leaf]

only TC hold that power

[cunning geode]

i dont think i like that comparison

[cedar trench]

if you dont send this copypasta to 4 different people wombat will get inside your house and make you feel uncomfortable at times when you least expect him

[cunning geode]

[coral glacier]

wheres my song that contains silk

[cedar trench]

somewhere

[gilded adder]

my Silk friends.
I am in a coping mood because the PC specs for ER came out and I don't know if my PC can run it well enough, praying that the game is optimized well since I could run DS3 and Sekiro just fine.

[cedar trench]

i dont think i understood one word of this sentence

[uncut citrus]

then mine definitely cant

[burnt topaz]

Wishing you luck and good pcs

[lone lichen]

me too thanks

[carmine sapphire]

Will elden ring come out on playstation?

[lone lichen]

ps4/ps5

[carmine sapphire]

pogger

[lone lichen]

i maintain that the minimum specs they've given are really weird

[gilded adder]

I have an Intel Core i7, 8gb RAM and an Nvidia GTX 765m. Please God. Let there be a miracle.

[lone lichen]

sekiro specs vs. elden ring specs

[burnt topaz]

Damn ok

[lone lichen]

it's insane
games by the same developer, both releasing on ps4

[cedar trench]

mind if i interrupt the computer discussion?

[lone lichen]

and from what i saw/heard from the network test, the ps4 version was running fine

[cedar trench]

ive actually re read edge and i feel like ive found something youd like

[gilded adder]

Man, it's going to suck so much if I can't play. Not only will it suck since I can't play something I'm so excited for but I'll also feel really bad because my friend gifted me the game.

[burnt topaz]

Go ahead

[lone lichen]

if the issue is ram maybe, but cpu/gpu upgrades are basically impossible in this market

[cedar trench]

this to me feels particularly interesting

[lone lichen]

the gpu i paid $150 usd for in 2019 currently costs $800

radeon rx 570

[cedar trench]

this implies, along with the fact the games has ascension at its core when it comes to progression, that there wont be much connection to all the areas in a similar way to hollow knight

[gilded adder]

I'd have to ask my parents for a new one. I don't know how to upgrade a PC and mine is from 2013 so I doubt it would be compatible with newer hardware.

Also, knowing my parents, they'd probably say no. Best case scenario is that I wait 3 months for my birthday in May and ask then but I really don't want to have to wait that long.

[grizzled nimbus]

pc upgrades are too expensive and ps5 doesnt exist

[summer obsidian]

@cedar trench I feel like someone came up with that or said that before, like mossbag or something. Half the game is going to be getting to the citadel, and then the back half is going to be inside the citadel

[cedar trench]

true, but it also brings for a much more varied gameplay experience and it doesnt mean we wont get key areas where other less important parts of the game branch out

[grizzled nimbus]

i ordered a PS 5 in june 2021 and it still hasn't arrived and they are not sure when it will

[cedar trench]

not exactly half but i get your point

[lone lichen]

it's cryptobros and supply shortages combined

[gilded adder]

If all goes well, I'll get a job soon and can hopefully start saving up for a new PC.

[lone lichen]

demand is up and supply is down

[cunning geode]

the sister who gave you the Jordan Petersus book?

fuck

she's something

[cedar trench]

not that the areas will be entirely disconnected

in my pov there is still a bit of coherence

[lone lichen]

i've been wondering about this just because of sekiro's specs

[random fox]

So whats the discussion now

[lone lichen]

elden ring pc specs

[random fox]

They are pretty fair

[burnt topaz]

theres 2, pc specs and this

[random fox]

U dont need an amazing pc to run it which is good

[haughty brook]

Maybe the PC port of ER is based on the PS5 version? I'm not an expert tho, also maybe the size of the game and content in it influenced too

[random fox]

Also about what i expected

[cedar trench]

for example, this is how the map will work for me, considering the water based areas, with water going down from coral forest all the way to that dock area

and then theres my 7 page long headcanon on whats beneath

[dusty nimbus]

Crustacean boss, perhaps?

[lone lichen]

they're absolute insanity
a game from the same developer as sekiro, releasing on the same console as sekiro, with a minimum cpu requirement that's significantly higher than sekiro's recommended cpu and triple the minimum ram requirement

[cedar trench]

oh so you DO want to hear my 7 page long headcanon, sweet

[dusty nimbus]

Yes

[lone lichen]

at a time when cpu and gpu prices are dramatically increased

[cedar trench]

so basically underwater crab society

[dusty nimbus]

What about a lil bit of both?

[dusty nimbus]

What about pistol shrimps, lobsters and mantis shrimps?

[gilded adder]

It's weird because From games are usually well optimized, at least the ones that release on PC at the same time as console.

[cedar trench]

crab was a more generalized term, theres a few of those scattered all around

[dusty nimbus]

Also vampire crab would be cool

Or ghost crabs

[cedar trench]

so as i was saying there are horseshoe crabs which hold poisonous lifeblood and live in a less organized society and then theres crabs/lobsters/etc which have formed a very wealthy system because of their not really ethical scientific research

[gilded adder]

And then years later finally get an official patch 🥴

[haughty brook]

My theory is that the PC version is using the PS5 one as a base. Also for what I read Elden Ring is going to be pretty huge in size and content.

[lone lichen]

pc release includes an anticheat which will interfere with modding

[cedar trench]

wow this sucks

[steel bloom]

Well

[rapid topaz]

MH World has an Anti-cheat thing and It sucked so much. You could had a 2080ti the FPS can drop to 40

[dusty nimbus]

Horseshoe crabs in a village are a good idea, but for enemies you'd want a more defensive crab

[fresh turtle]

I thought it was just the basic anti cheat system

[cedar trench]

chaos if you really want my full headcanon i feel like its better to move to somewhere else not to interfere

[steel bloom]

I Guess ill do a last steel soul run before ss release

[cedar trench]

im getting there

[lone lichen]

they're using easy anti-cheat

[dusty nimbus]

They are technically interfering since one of the rules for this chat is to not stop a discussion related to silksong from happening

[lone lichen]

which given the state of multiplayer in the dark souls games is badly needed

[cedar trench]

oh i have to go, ill just write later

[rapid topaz]

"easy anti-cheat" even the name makes me wonder of their quality

[dusty nimbus]

Cya

[lone lichen]

it's the anticheat used by fortnite, dead by daylight, fall guys, etc

[gilded adder]

Yea, sorry. And same, Sonia.

I'm just praying at this point that it works.

[lone lichen]

best-case scenario is that they goofed and the specs are based on the ps5 settings but graphics options can be lowered to ps4 settings

[rapid topaz]

I mean not allowing modding is understandable for some games, but some other doesn't need this imo

[lone lichen]

believe me, fromsoft needed to have some form of anticheat

[rapid topaz]

because of the "raid" mechanic ?

going into other world instance

[lone lichen]

yeah multiplayer stuff

[fresh turtle]

I thought it was the hackers being able to brick computers through ds3

[haughty brook]

Yes

[lone lichen]

there were hacks that let you instakill people with a single throwing knife, put illegal items into people's inventories so they got banned, and now the RCE exploit that got the servers taken down

[haughty brook]

As a silverlining, the amount of GB for ER is not going to be a bloated mess as a CoD game.

[fresh turtle]

I mean fromsoft always compress gb

[warm bone]

Those system requirements are a lot

[lone lichen]

if not for ds3 and sekiro's pc versions i'd believe the specs they put up

[gilded adder]

I AM COPING SO HARD GAMING

[fresh turtle]

What's wrong with the specs?

[lone lichen]

yeah i'm coping too but i genuinely believe that the whole thing seems off

[warm bone]

The requirements they put up are probably for 1080p 60fps, you can probably still play but it won’t be at that frame rate or resolution

[lone lichen]

obscenely high compared to other fromsoft pc ports

[warm bone]

Larger than all the previous fromsoft games, people are sad because they thought they could run it but now know that they cannot

[gilded adder]

I can settle for 720p...

[haughty brook]

I prefer lower resolution over fps

[fresh turtle]

I don't have a pc pls dumb it down lol

[haughty brook]

I mean, it was clear ER was going to be far bigger than the previous From games.

[lone lichen]

what fromsoft has listed as the bare minimum to run elden ring is significantly higher than what they had listed as recommended for sekiro, and both games run on ps4

[warm bone]

Yeah, I can run it fine but I sympathize with the people who thought their system could run it but now know they cannot

[lone lichen]

i'd be close to the minimum if i got an extra stick of ram, but still a little under

[sinful flare]

hello guys i love silksong as much as i love dont starve together
bye guys

[fresh turtle]

Ohhhhhhhh gotcha

[formal karma]

Nice, don't starve together

[warm bone]

Art Style is better

[haughty brook]

Still,I kinda believe the PC version is based on the PS5 one and From should release patch that can acomodate for the PS4 system

[warm bone]

I agree

[sinful flare]

are ps5s even rel

[uncut citrus]

No.

[sinful flare]

i think reevers is powdered's alt

[gilded adder]

IT AIN'T OVER UNTIL IT'S OVER. I STILL HAVE FAITH.

[uncut citrus]

that would explain some things...

[warm bone]

I didn’t hear no bell

[sinful flare]

shut up powdered

[uncut citrus]

but i can neither confirm nor deny this information.

Its too late... jonny is gone...

[sinful flare]

I STILL HAVE FAITH ON WILSON DONT STARVE TOGETHER REWORK

[gilded adder]

Difference is, I have good reason to believe what I believe. At least, I hope. I think.

[uncut citrus]

who isnt?

[sinful flare]

THESGE'S WHAT SDS NEWS BIELEVERS WOULD SAY !!!!

[gilded adder]

Yo, if I manage to run it well enough, and you can't for some reason, I could stream the game for you. Maybe not on Twitch since that's probably too much.

You know it! 😳

[uncut citrus]

wholesome moment

[still flume]

Omg ss discussion is alive

[grizzled nimbus]

that's the most wholesome ss-discussion is ever gonna get

[hearty token]

when is silksong

[grizzled nimbus]

it's only downhill from here

[gilded adder]

It's like in this state of limbo where it sometimes dies but then gets reborn.

[still flume]

I just came here, wha happened

[gilded adder]

Elden Ring PC specs happened.

[grizzled nimbus]

a friendship was made

[sinful flare]

does it require 6 terabytes of ram?

[coarse leaf]

lool holy

imagine

[small goblet]

cool

[gilded adder]

Yooooo, that's

[cunning geode]

"Let's celebrate what we already have in the meantime" is going in my list of "things to say to people desperate for news"

[uncut citrus]

how long is that list

[gilded adder]

The PC Specs may be a little suspicious but that cannot stop my hype.

9. More. Days.

[small goblet]

please fromsoftware 60 fps

[cunning geode]

9 more days to binge Dark Souls 1 while I have the chance

...on top of college

||my desk is on the roof||

[serene chasm]

College is the dark souls of school

[cunning geode]

more like high school

[coarse leaf]

Leth retweeting those tweets was exciting to me, he never acknowledges SS in any way, only Crowsworn

[gilded adder]

He retweeted Mossbag's tweet about the PC gamer article, no?

[coarse leaf]

Yup, that as well

look

[ocean mulch]

You know he's also thirsty to do some marketing but has to wait

[coarse leaf]

Probably 😂

I mean marketing isn't always public and on social media, theres also marketing behind the scenes

[thorn ravine]

Amazing update “we are still working on it” lmao

[uncut citrus]

guys guys

Its pack time

[small goblet]

hope the day when tc decides to post ss news they firstly post "we're still working on it"
and like actual news in an hour

[coarse leaf]

next week

[small goblet]

24th isn't next week iirc

[coarse leaf]

it is (?)

[small goblet]

oh fuck it is

joke ruined

[coarse leaf]

TC on Monday: Silksong releasing this Friday have fun

[cunning geode]

yooo elden ring stream party

[desert basin]

feel bad for the people who preordered elden ring on steam and wont even be able to run it

[hushed wasp]

why does bone bottom sound so depressing, it doesnt fit the lava area at all

[gilded adder]

Bonebottom is the name of the starting town, not the lava area. They're separate.

[hushed wasp]

could you send a screenshot?

The Bonebottom OST would certainly fit a town if thats true

[gilded adder]

We actually down't know what Bonebottom looks exactly but people have speculated it to be this from the trailer.

[desert basin]

it may not be a CB2077 situation glitch wise. But why does it matter if people cant play it

[hushed wasp]

yeah that'd be fitting for the music probably, forgive me for thinking it was for the lava area lol

[gilded adder]

No worries.

[hushed wasp]

I like Lace because it reminds me of ''Hornet'' And ''Daughter of Hallownest'' in some ways, lace also functions similarly in the way you fight her twice and she doesnt actually die

[coarse leaf]

ppl on twitter early 2021 hoping for early 2022 release.... 🤡

[sly edge]

mm

[untold prairie]

i hate this characters design with a burning passion

[cunning geode]

[untold prairie]

i mean just look at him

[cunning geode]

yeah

he looks splendid

and very trustworthy

[untold prairie]

hopefully he’s the new zote and we get to beat him

[hushed wasp]

i'd give him 100 geo to open a bank account and then store 4500 geo with him

[serene chasm]

Grindle looks fine. This character design is the worst

[sly edge]

[coarse leaf]

Looks like the riddles were deleted WTF

i cant see them

[cunning geode]

nice ping

[lone lichen]

a little trolling

[gilded adder]

Big Dark Souls
Seriously speaking, it seems like a culmination of all of From's experience and games coupled with what appears to be an amazingly rich story written with help by Martin. An open world with DS level design, character building and a more involved story seems like a match made in heaven.

[coarse leaf]

no its not trolling, i cant see the riddles, the link doesnt work

[harsh forum]

what are you gonna change your name to once the game actually comes out?

[gilded adder]

"Jonnymeboy (Play Elden Ring)"

[serene chasm]

Eldenmeboy

[harsh forum]

Also, who are from and Martin

[harsh forum]

👌

I’m not really a big dark souls fan so idk

[lone lichen]

more the fact that you pinged a mod replying to a post from 18 months ago
google docs might've deleted it if it wasn't edited for a long time or something

[gilded adder]

From Software (developers behind Dark Souls series)
Geargoe R. R. Martin (author of A Song of Ice and Fire book series a.k.a. Game of Thrones)

[wheat sail]

from who

[true vine]

didn't the creators of elden ring make pac man?

[coarse leaf]

my god im sorry it was on accident

[hushed wasp]

never played dark souls

[still elm]

was watching Nightmare Alley and I feel like this quote will age well

[harsh forum]

Ok, that’s pretty cool, G.O.T author working on the game

[cunning geode]

i wasn't very interested in Elden Ring until I started playing the souls games

[stoic jacinth]

his role is complicated to say the least

[gilded adder]

I see your name btw
I kind of stopped playing Genshin, sadly. I haven't played in a while. Elden Ring and other games have been consuming my life.

[stoic jacinth]

he didn't actually write the current story

[true vine]

hold on

[stoic jacinth]

he just kind of wrote the mythos and history, FromSoftware's employees and the director Miyazaki wrote the current events

[true vine]

done

[cunning geode]

thats a lot of fun

[lone lichen]

from what i understand grrm basically wrote the background events, stuff that happened well before the time the game takes place

[harsh forum]

Lol

[hushed wasp]

I mean elden ring looks really good but still like every rpg ever

[harsh forum]

You should change this temporarily to er-discussion

[stoic jacinth]

lets George focus on what he does best, writing stories for books and not video games

[cunning geode]

so when Martin plays Elden Ring he'll be like "hey, i remember that dragon! son of a bitch, she must be 3000 years old by now"

[harsh forum]

100%

[gilded adder]

Dark Souls formula is pretty unique, I'd say, honestly. If the game is really good, doesn't matter to me if it is similar to some other games.

[stoic jacinth]

well the cool thing is the formula is changed up

[gilded adder]

Yea, that too.

[harsh forum]

[stoic jacinth]

you can skip the first "main" area of the game and just keep on going

[lone lichen]

dark souls is definitely an outlier mechanically
i kinda get thinking it looks similar, but the gameplay has a very different feel compared to any other rpg i've played

[stoic jacinth]

i want to make a BOTW comparison so bad but god knows everyone has done that before

[gilded adder]

I was mainly referring to the character building and RPG elements found in other Souls games.

[cunning geode]

on the surface Titanfall 2 looks like a gritty scifi shooter but its much more than that

[true vine]

@gilded adder I hope "ER" stands for "emergency room" and not "elden ring"

[gilded adder]

Sorry to be the bearer of bad news, but it does stand for Elden Ring.

[formal karma]

its elden ring

Evil Raccoons

[wheat sail]

you will go to the ER on the ER release date though

PC Specs
OHHHHHHHHHH THE PC SPECS

[hushed wasp]

why do AAA games have to be so expensive
i can buy it.. but still, its a lot of money

[gilded adder]

AAA games do be like that, unfortunately.

[opaque sigil]

because they can get away with it

[lone lichen]

yeah i don't buy aaa games often and that's a big part of why

[opaque sigil]

Just wait for a sale or something

[stoic jacinth]

aren't the pc specs like ridiculous

[fresh turtle]

Mostly because money
But elden ring is worth it
Most aren't tho cyberpunk

[stoic jacinth]

i'm a lame ps5 player so i don't pay attention to that

[gilded adder]

Yea, which is why I'm in a big cope mode right now.

[lone lichen]

yes, to the point where i wonder if there's been some sort of mistake

[fresh turtle]

Sell your souls for a console

[true vine]

they exist?

[stoic jacinth]

because i know there was one that got deleted immediately

[hushed wasp]

nintendo porting a 300 year old game to switch and making you pay 60 euros

[opaque sigil]

What? A new AAA game has high specs?

[stoic jacinth]

you don't know the suffering of trying man

[opaque sigil]

shocking

[coarse leaf]

that is truly a nintendo moment

[lone lichen]

they were taken down after a few hours but they're the official minimum specs

[gilded adder]

It's not that. It's the fact that it's releasing on PS4 and both Sekiro and DS3 released on the PS4 and have considerably lower specs on PC.

[stoic jacinth]

it was messed up, so messed up I complemented buying a scalped price

[fresh turtle]

50 dollars is crazy

[lone lichen]

confirmed today on twitter

[coarse leaf]

i was even dumb enough to fall for it once and bought the 60 euro mystery dungeon remake, fortunately tho I learned from my mistake

[opaque sigil]

Sekiro was like three years ago wasn't it

[warm bone]

I think it’s cause the pc version in a port of the ps5 version and not the ps4 version

[lone lichen]

same hardware, same developer

[stoic jacinth]

well a base ps4 can run it

[opaque sigil]

Not necessarily the same version

[stoic jacinth]

fair, it's probably just not as optimized on pc then

[lone lichen]

that's the thing
it's pretty clearly built on top of dark souls 3, which ran perfectly fine on pc

[hushed wasp]

Tammo whyt

So
Anyone plat SMT 5/V?

[coarse leaf]

amazing game

[true vine]

this person expects people to gift them nitro

[fresh turtle]

The game is...lacking in many areas

[opaque sigil]

Haven't quite finished, but close

[warm bone]

Imagine thinking chat likes you enough to gift you anything

[gilded adder]

Hey, could you knock it off please? Read the rules and be nice here.

[true vine]

do you seriously just join big servers just to ask for someone to gift you nitro

[coarse leaf]

imagine TC likes you enought to give you SS

[warm bone]

Uh oh

[true vine]

I see

[opaque sigil]

maybe don't do that then

[fresh turtle]

I got like 30 hours into SMT V and realized there is literally no story

[gilded adder]

Are you actually going to participate or just insult people and ask for nitro?

[warm bone]

Look at their logs Jonny

[opaque sigil]

it... took you 30 hours to realize that?

[true vine]

what's that

but why?

[fresh turtle]

Shin Megami Tensei 5, the original series persona comes from (megami tensei)

[true vine]

I have no idea what that is

[gilded adder]

insults people
i was only joking bro, just a prank.

[fresh turtle]

No, I was just in denial

[opaque sigil]

get better jokes

[warm bone]

Bro stop overreacting bro I was just trolling

[ocean shuttle]

Am I finally going colorblind or are the mod colors yellow now and not orange

[fresh turtle]

And the area with the keys has a jump in 20 levels

[opaque sigil]

former

[velvet heart]

they're yellow you're all good

[warm bone]

Your eyes are loosing their grace of gold

[gilded adder]

That person is no more

[coarse leaf]

dark yellow

[warm bone]

Thanks Jonny

[true vine]

hallelujah

[ocean shuttle]

I DON'T UNDERSTAND ARE THEY YELLOW?

[fresh turtle]

In elden ring
I'd rather push 🇵 as a tarnished than hang onto what little grace I'd have in false truths

[coarse leaf]

if mods change to yellow then they need to change the orange icon to a lemon or so 🍋

[ocean shuttle]

@ MOD PLEASE TELL ME

[gilded adder]

We are still orange.

[true vine]

you have two choices, either get an eye transplant or get a new monitor

pick your poison

[ocean shuttle]

My monitor is good, my eyes have gone bad, finally I'm not fit for military

[velvet heart]

You sure? looks yellow to me

[gilded adder]

"I doubt you could even imagine it."
You're right. I couldn't even imagine the PC specs

[true vine]

"sorry guys you can only play this game if you work at nasa"

[coarse leaf]

I seeee thanks!

[true vine]

better save up for that quantum computer

[stoic jacinth]

honestly

CPU is the odd one out

[silver oak]

I mean
I have windows 10?

[true vine]

you'd expect it to be some 2047 generation processor

[stoic jacinth]

it's a new title, it's gonna be pretty demanding no matter what. so graphics aren't too bad, this is 2016 stuff

[topaz narwhal]

what do they even need 12 gb of ram for

[coarse leaf]

im not an expert, but ram seems liek the craziest one?

[true vine]

"antivirus" probably

[stoic jacinth]

but yeah again the CPU is a bit odd, which makes me think this is another "we didn't really invest too much time into finding what lower-end CPU actually fits the best"

[silver oak]

Every boss is a cloud of individually animated particles

[fresh turtle]

I thought computers usually have a lot of GB?

[wheat sail]

SS pc requirements

[gilded adder]

My computer is from 2013 and only has 8gb of RAM

[fresh turtle]

Why-

[opaque sigil]

Expecting a 2022 AAA game to run on a 2013 computer was always questionable

[stoic jacinth]

it's probably due to partially how FromSoftware makes some absolutely awesome games, but they're not there technically, and didn't use to be there graphically, although that seems to have changed

[gilded adder]

Because that's what it came with

[fresh turtle]

That's like thinking a 2011 phone can play genshin

[stoic jacinth]

like souls games can't dynamically create NPCs, it's just not in the engine

[gilded adder]

I mean, it runs Sekiro and DS3 just fine and those are way newer compared to the computer too.

[stoic jacinth]

instead they have them loaded in and then replace them when they're needed

[coarse leaf]

maybe youre fine if you buy 1 more ram stick? those are just like 30 bucks, right?

[true vine]

seriously though, 60 gigabytes?

which japanese femboy modeled each blade of grass until their fingers were twisted the other way in their insane 14 hour workday

[stoic jacinth]

like a certain final boss of the DLC of DS3, who has its second phase loaded in inside of a far-off building, swapping it in when it reaches a health threshold and damaging it down to the hp of phase 1's npc

it's wacky

[gilded adder]

Look, if I could have gotten a better computer I would have but I can't so I'm stuck with the one I have now. I can still hope that it runs decently enough.

[stoic jacinth]

thank you andrew

[fresh turtle]

what

[coarse leaf]

😳

[gilded adder]

@coarse leaf Can we not?

[coarse leaf]

wow, what a history

[wheat sail]

Download more ram

[true vine]

give them what they want

it's in their name

[wheat sail]

maybe

[fresh turtle]

I've finally met my people
We're all poor

[wheat sail]

[stoic jacinth]

i'll say it again, it can run on a base ps4. They seem to be listening to people more this time, and i bet it'll be optimized in a day 1 patch or something to make it run on about that level on the Ps4 does.

although i may be wrong with that prediction

[true vine]

[opaque sigil]

you were explicitly told to stop

[coarse leaf]

[pale lion]

i was looking at playing er but considering my graphics card is a 740 i do Not think my PC can handle it

[stoic jacinth]

they found out what contradicts meant

[true vine]

I sent this a tad bit early

[stoic jacinth]

tad

[fresh turtle]

Anybody excited for botw 2 and the fact that it'll be dark?

[stoic jacinth]

it'll be what

[serene chasm]

dark as in themes?

[true vine]

I'm excited for Nuke Zone, which is this really unfairly underrated game

[serene chasm]

or dark as in lighting?

[pale lion]

im looking forward to it esp as the direction it seems to be going i n

[stoic jacinth]

this is easy, i'll just turn up brightness

assuming you mean themes though

[coarse leaf]

excited for botw sonic edition

[stoic jacinth]

in which case I haven't seen much in terms of the themes, been going blind so far on basically anything to do with that

day one patch: released -9 days before

[serene chasm]

patch notes: we fixed things

[stoic jacinth]

they're ahead of the game

[gilded adder]

It's not released. It's been stated that they've been working on a Day 1 patch for a while now.

[true vine]

patch notes: we did a thing or two

[stoic jacinth]

yeah they said it back at taipei

just wondering how they know what it added

[true vine]

seriously though look at this

[stoic jacinth]

probably an official source to some degree, not familiar with that account

[coarse leaf]

patch notes: we patched

[serene chasm]

look at what?

[true vine]

nuke zone is underrated

[serene chasm]

never heard of it

[true vine]

exactly!

[serene chasm]

must be bad

[true vine]

[ocean shuttle]

reevers moment

[true vine]

it's a tank game/roguelike that feels really good to play, at least when the demo was up for a short period of time

[uncut citrus]

😳

[serene chasm]

looks pretty fun. the colours and style seems like it might be overbearing especially when lots is going on.

[wheat sail]

Wii play tanks was the shit

[stoic jacinth]

what else was in that game again

i remember a target shooting game but that's it

[wheat sail]

think there was fishing. honestly tanks is the only good game on it imo

[coarse leaf]

pls this year

[coarse leaf]

100%?

[stoic jacinth]

no

[wheat sail]

no but probably (imo)

[fresh turtle]

October this year is my closest guess

[wheat sail]

they would probably announce like 1 or 2 months in advance and theres still time for that

and they are 'deep' in development

[stoic jacinth]

i stopped being actively excited around some indie world last year, which is probably good since the minute any news starts going out about it i'll get sucked right back in

[wheat sail]

dont know exactly what that means but they are probably pretty close to finishing

[coarse leaf]

yeah, or christmas time, even though that would make them compete with activision, nintendos (zelda and and the likes)

[fresh turtle]

Bro atlus said. "project re fantasy" was deep in development/nearing the end and it's been months since we heard from. We haven't even seen an in-game screenshot and it's been 5 years

[coarse leaf]

soon?

plus these games take time

[fresh turtle]

Yeah but the trend of not giving updates is really annoying. It's insane

Elden Ring until recently, silksong, botw 2, project re fantasy, smt v, etc etc

[coarse leaf]

its hard to give updates when youre a small team or one person doing a game all by ourself

[fresh turtle]

I meant in gaming in general. Even still a small update every few months of actual substance would suffice, maybe a screenshot of the name of a random quest

[wheat sail]

I just want release news but they dont rly seem to know when it'll come out yet 😦

[coarse leaf]

updates every saturday 😊

[orchid rune]

botw 2 has had some trailers and the time of the year it will release

[cinder juniper]

I'm back after a 6 hours mute

[trim estuary]

Aksta rackaomb arocoz they can’t give you news without spoiling the game, hushsaks

like for the game im making I update everyoone once a month

[trim estuary]

[trim estuary]

Can we ban #hk-lore

[coarse leaf]

agreed 💀

[cinder juniper]

mod was terrified of my skill

[trim estuary]

Turn it into Graig’s garden

[fresh turtle]

Then don't look at the updates, a consumer needs to know what they're purchasing. People can be allowed to go in blind but to not update rly for year(s) is bad management

I just want news

[gilded adder]

He is.

[ocean shuttle]

Yes

[uncut citrus]

not pack like pack, pack like in pack (spelt diffrent)

[true vine]

you know what, I don't want to know

[ocean shuttle]

I don’t understand

[worthy lichen]

[ocean shuttle]

My vocabulary of slurs is not yet so diverse

[gilded adder]

yo it slimesong

hello

[sly summit]

hey Jonny

[worthy lichen]

hiya

how are y'all doing today?

[sly summit]

Jonny I love u

[gilded adder]

I'm doing okay, kind of apprehensive because of the Elden Ring PC specs but I have hope.

[worthy lichen]

even if you can't run it, you'll still have supported the developers

[sly summit]

Jonny lets marry together and have a little pot

[worthy lichen]

I see we are on extra crack today

[ocean shuttle]

[high hedge]

Having seen them both now, I definitely prefer A Muppet Christmas Carol over A Very Muppet Christmas

[gilded adder]

Actually, my friend gifted me the game so I'd feel bad if I couldn't play it.

[gilded adder]

Can you not with the uncomfortable stuff? Thanks.

[sly summit]

when they gifted u the game?

[worthy lichen]

well

ask it nicely, that usually works for me

[sly summit]

Because steam policy for refunds are that with 14 days from the buy and less than 2 hours played u can refund (idk how it works with pre releases)

[trim estuary]

Yeah how do pre release refunds work

[high hedge]

I assume you can cancel before release

[trim estuary]

But can you refund after release?

[high hedge]

Try

[sly summit]

if the 14 days have not passed u should still can

[trim estuary]

I don’t have anything preordered right now so I can’t

[gilded adder]

I don't think you can refund if you gift the game 'cause I already accepted it. Plus, I'd still like to try and see if it runs on my computer.

And I'd rather keep it if I get a better computer in the future.

[sly summit]

u can

[trim estuary]

My friend refunded phasmophobia even though my other friend bought it for him

[sly summit]

I mean, what u do is put an option to make ur friend able to refund the game, they receives the money

[ocean shuttle]

Stonks

[worthy lichen]

my poor laptop would combust
don't get me wrong, it's really dang good, but I don't think it's elden ring levels of good

[gilded adder]

Now, that just feels like a shitty move 'cause doesn't the money get put into your wallet not your friend's? I'd rather not do that.

[uncut citrus]

ITS PACK TIME

[sly summit]

its ur friends wallet 100% sure

[uncut citrus]

Btw, gotta go pack now, cya

[ocean shuttle]

Pack :quirrelgroovin: :quirrelgroovin:

[worthy lichen]

have fun reevers

[sly summit]

elden isnt confirmed for geforce now, right? No souls game is in there yet :/

[ocean shuttle]

WHAT

[wheat sail]

Hes going to brazil

[gilded adder]

I see. Well, I'd still rather keep the game since I don't know if it will run or not, there might be patches that improve performance and I really, really want to play the game and am excited for it.

[sly summit]

imma buy a steam deck when it releases for latam so I hope the steam deck can run it

[high hedge]

What are your specs?

[sly summit]

if not... It should still can run ds3

[high hedge]

Gosh if the Steam Deck can run Elden Ring that’ll really be impressive

The trailer showcased Hades and Dead Cells right?

[sly summit]

Im happy with stable 30 fps

[gilded adder]

Intel i7 CPU
Nvidia GTX 765m
8gb RAM

[worthy lichen]

[sly summit]

yeah, it can run doom eternal, control, forza horizon 5 at 60 fps in medium settings all of them

[worthy lichen]

but can it run gmod with all 500 of my addons

[sly summit]

U might envy my dual core i3, 2gb of ram and intel HD graphics

[gilded adder]

Hah

[sly summit]

I repeat this

[high hedge]

Damn if it can stably run Doom Eternal on medium with 60 fps that’s better than my pc

[wheat sail]

if it can run on low at 30 fps its better than mine

[sly summit]

if it can open the main menu is better than mine

[high hedge]

I guess I wrote off the Steam Deck too early

[worthy lichen]

If it can run its better than mine

[high hedge]

What if it walks?

[sly summit]

as my pc is trash I dont tend to wishlist games that... u know. The only 3d game that I have wishlist in steam is elden ring

[worthy lichen]

actually maybe I shouldn't say that, I haven't been able to test many high-demanding games on it yet

[worthy lichen]

I'll catch it before it gets away

[high hedge]

Damn it

[gilded adder]

@lone lichen Some of the guide got leaked and it has a page with all the classes and class stats. Do you want me to DM it to you?

[high hedge]

I was about to ask if your pc was currently running

[worthy lichen]

no it's being repaired

keyboard randomly just stopped for a split second sometimes

[high hedge]

Oof

[worthy lichen]

I died at least 6 times in tf2 because of it

so I hope that doesn't take long

[sly summit]

I have played tf2 in 3 different years just on the xmas times so I have the xmas loot box of 2017, 2018 and 2019 xD

[high hedge]

I think the roughest my pc has gotten while still being able to run the game was Outer Worlds

[worthy lichen]

oh you poor thing

[sly summit]

but never in other time of the year (I dont really liked tf)

[worthy lichen]

I'll hide my aussie knife for now

[high hedge]

Though it mega struggles with Sable for some reason

[deep cedar]

i spent 6k cad on my pc Ama

[sly summit]

my pc actually cost 100 usd

[high hedge]

What kind of cooling system do you use

[deep cedar]

noctua d15

[worthy lichen]

my laptop is at least 500-600 something usd

[deep cedar]

i spent a year saving up money from grocery store job

[high hedge]

I bought mine from a work friend for 500 usd

[deep cedar]

now i have a rtx 3090 but i play games likr hollow knight so idk about my choices in life

[worthy lichen]

mine was a christmas present because I got nesrly straight As

[deep cedar]

pog

[worthy lichen]

I'll take a free upgrade

[high hedge]

My Laptop was more expensive than my pc but I use it much much less

[worthy lichen]

why would you spend more on a laptop

[high hedge]

It has a touch screen

Though actually I got the laptop first

[cinder juniper]

I hope currencies are a bit more noticeable in the game

[high hedge]

I guess Geo do blend into the background in the greyer areas

[serene chasm]

Laptops are generally more expensive

[high hedge]

Portability and function in a smaller form factor

[cinder juniper]

Moss Grotto's ones are easily confused with the floor

[deep cedar]

i dont have anything to say about silksong but i really wanna play it

[high hedge]

Ahh the Silksong currency

[deep cedar]

rosaries

[cinder juniper]

we're in the Silksong channel lol

[deep cedar]

and shell shards

[coarse leaf]

in the sequel of Off-Topic channel*

[deep cedar]

well yea but the game isnt out

[high hedge]

I guess I didn’t really have a problem spotting either

[cinder juniper]

but yeah, I watched the gameplay, and to me, moss Grotto's ones should get a redesign

[worthy lichen]

I still think we get it this year

[cinder juniper]

but we saw gameplay

[high hedge]

I’m tentatively hoping, but I moreso expect it next year

[deep cedar]

but its gameplay from 2 years ago

[high hedge]

3

[deep cedar]

prolly means nothing to the end game (idk)

[cinder juniper]

hopefully they changed that currency design

[worthy lichen]

I think it's gonna be around the end of this year

[high hedge]

What do the shards look like again?

[deep cedar]

grey shits

[cinder juniper]

I expect it this one, or at least at the very end of this one

[high hedge]

Little grey bits?

[worthy lichen]

maybe even middle? or maybe I'm just coping too hard

[cinder juniper]

Maybe half?

[coarse leaf]

silksoon!

[cinder juniper]

are our minds connected

[deep cedar]

silksoon
