general-discussion

[maiden dust]

The big suck boss is romina ngl

Her body hit boxes suck

[winged obsidian]

it gave root to a lot of the things we love today so you have to look at it in that context, without ds1 we wouldn't have any of the others

[maiden dust]

Besides that she is a cool fight

[hexed kernel]

dancing lion is really good
rellana is peak
messmer is peak
midra is peak
romina is good ig
scadutree avatar is okay
gaius is okay
metyr should not exist
bayle is absolute cinema
consort radahn is absolute cinema

[winged obsidian]

Romina the only ER boss that whiffs her attacks as much as you do lol

[uncut depot]

pcr is not cinema 😭😭😭

[maiden dust]

Fr lmao

[winged obsidian]

she's so damn weird

[uncut depot]

genuinely aoeslop

[lavish yacht]

Consort radahn is just a non consensual light show lmfao worst final boss out of any dlc

[maiden dust]

Dancing lion was cool af ngl

[uncut depot]

pcr when he gets mogged by gael

[winged obsidian]

some attacks feel nearly impossible to dodge but others are like "how the hell did you not hit me?"

[uncut depot]

not gaius wtf am i talking abt

[maiden dust]

Ikr

[uncut depot]

i meant gael LOL 😭😭😭

[hexed kernel]

can be said for so many bosses like mohg and all but like
PCR's AOE isnt that bad
it just forces you to dodge more and position yourself differently

[timid tide]

I think the big thing with Metyr is she literally just kills you if you're ever stuck for a second, so the entire fighting loop is just poke-dodge-dodge-dodge poke-dodge-dodge-dodge

[winged obsidian]

PCR was so damn annoying, yes fromsoft he needs to shoot lasers from every single swing of his sword

[lavish yacht]

He gets mogged by orphan of kos and manus

[uncut depot]

i lowk never beat manus

[winged obsidian]

AoEden Ring

[uncut depot]

😭😭😭 i'm still in the abyss chasm rn

[hexed kernel]

you are right on the gael part
gael is legit the best boss i have seen in any game

[timid tide]

There's people that call Elden Ring rollslop, I think that is literally only actually 100% true with Metyr

[uncut depot]

artorias best ds1 boss!! (bar is in hell)

[lavish yacht]

He’s a. Fun fight

[winged obsidian]

I think I get why people call it rollslop tbh

[hexed kernel]

they have a very surface level knowledge about elden ring's combat

[balmy marsh]

All that just to have quite possibly the worst remembrance in the Dlc if not all or the game

[lavish yacht]

Ludwig is my fav fight out of any souls game tho, genuinely one of the best moments in any souls game for me

[sour lagoon]

Ok I posted vids and a pic of my cat in #media-and-links

[wispy bison]

the sleeper!!

[winged obsidian]

you get a repeat of his sword with a mid ash and Miquella's light right? that ridiculously slow spell?

[hexed kernel]

i still need to play bloodborne but right now
my favourite fromsoft boss is gael
followed by bayle and PCR

[uncut depot]

"PCR" anywhere near top 10 is ridiculous but it's your opinion man

[balmy marsh]

Yep and his swords get cleared hard by the star scourge swords

[winged obsidian]

fromsoft be giving us these ashes and spells that take a year and 3 business days as if we're still fighting ds3 enemies lol

[lavish yacht]

Unfortunately Bloodborne is stuck in 30 fps which has never been a problem for me but tech bros absolutely despise it lmao

[sour lagoon]

🥹

[uncut depot]

i didn't realize how lame ER swag was till i played ds1 and ds3

[winged obsidian]

the rip off pontiff combo

[winged obsidian]

ds2 dripmaxes all the others

[sour lagoon]

True

[winged obsidian]

ER swag is hella lacking

[balmy marsh]

Should've just given us a free rhadan to fight for us tbh

[hexed kernel]

gael pulls off everything perfectly
his fight is perfectly fair, he has a wide variety of moves, his arena is my favourite, his lore is absolute cinema, his fight is extrmely fun and immersive while also being spectacular
you cannot ask anything more from a fight

[lavish yacht]

I honestly feel like the radahn fight was fan service cus radahn was the most popular Elden ring character at the time

[winged obsidian]

PCR is pontiff if he was a punk who needed someone else to make him powerful

[uncut depot]

ds3 weapons are also sometimes cooler
artorias gs, farron gs, dark sword, gotthard twinswords, friede's scythes

[timid tide]

True, they're only right with Metyr though

[winged obsidian]

pontiff evil maxxed his way to power with his own blood sweat and tears

[timid tide]

Metyr's fight is actually just rollslop, slop in general if you prefer

[hexed kernel]

frayed blade too

[lavish yacht]

Radahn fight from the bass game genuinely mogs the life out of pcr

[uncut depot]

like i wish ER had smth like farron greatsword

[uncut depot]

true!

[lavish yacht]

Radahn fight from the base game is one of my fav Elden ring fighrs

[balmy marsh]

Grey slab of steel v1 v2 v3 v4 v5

[winged obsidian]

they took away the rapier stance, such an L

[uncut depot]

This is any sword ever

[winged obsidian]

IDK how but it should've been Godwyn

damn the lore

[timid tide]

Its not the most unfair/hardest-because-bad-design boss fromsoft has ever made, but it definitely is among the lowest quality bosses they've put out

[lavish yacht]

I honestly thought the dlc was gonna go into godwyn more

[winged obsidian]

I thought so too

[uncut depot]

godwyn's whole deal is like him being super giga dead

[lavish yacht]

I thought the DLC was gonna be godwyn centered but no femboy miquella ig

[winged obsidian]

instead we got a lot of info we already knew

[balmy marsh]

Just ds3

[uncut depot]

and errrmm artorias gs in ds3 is black

[winged obsidian]

since when has death stopped a good fromsoft boss fight

[sour lagoon]

His eyes are so blue they’re pretty much silver or white

[uncut depot]

artorias armor is also super cool

[lavish yacht]

I might be wrong cuz it’s been a long time since I read the Elden ring lore but isn’t it only his soul that’s dead

[winged obsidian]

could've done Time travel shenanigans like in ds1

[sour lagoon]

Or Bloodborne

[uncut depot]

tarnished edition will add super cool armor 🙏

[timid tide]

They had to have known they were making a bad boss when they made metyr though

Like I cannot see that not being the goal

[sour lagoon]

Doesn’t just about every souls game have time travel

[uncut depot]

they made bed of chaos bro

[wispy bison]

when u hate so hard you have to believe ur own lies

[uncut depot]

deadass

[winged obsidian]

the main trilogy of ds did

[sour lagoon]

Even Sekiro does I think

[winged obsidian]

yep

[sour lagoon]

And Bloodborne

Idk about demon souls

[uncut depot]

doesn't ER have time travel when you fight placidusack

[timid tide]

Should just be called fromsoft shitpost bosses, bosses they make specifically to be absolutely terrible

[winged obsidian]

so never let anyone tell you we couldn't have had a godwyn fight

[lavish yacht]

Are you talking about the memory sections

[winged obsidian]

they lack imagination of the possibilities

[hexed kernel]

if you still think it should be centred around godwyn
you know nothing about elden ring lore
this just wont work

[sour lagoon]

I guess

[winged obsidian]

damn the lore

[uncut depot]

i don't see it makin a whole lot of sense ngl

[pastel cove]

Where do I find all 67 skibiditree fragments?

[winged obsidian]

damn making sense too

[sour lagoon]

Google

[uncut depot]

unless you propose we like go back in time n kill godwyn ourselves but like ??? 😭

[worn wigeon]

in shady place

[autumn sinew]

whoever recommended DS3, thank you. just bought the deluxe edition. Lets see what DS is all about 🙂

[winged obsidian]

"Miquella messed around with farum azula and found a way to yoink godwyn from back in time" there

[balmy marsh]

Bro godwyns dead like dead dead there's really no one in elden ring whos as dead as godwyns

[uncut depot]

oh yeah

[lavish yacht]

Mb for not watching the 37 hour lore documentary about Godwyns left toenail and the significance and symbolism it had on the story

[wispy bison]

i wish parrying in the souls games was more fun

[sour lagoon]

Be interesting to go back in time and kill Godwyn as one of the black knives

[uncut depot]

it's time!!

[worn wigeon]

it is fun

[sour lagoon]

They could add finisher animations

[wispy bison]

pressing a button and having the enemy vulnerable to a critical hit is not fun

[balmy marsh]

Bro it states in the intro of the game that he's dead

[winged obsidian]

artorias was also dead in ds1

[wispy bison]

this is why i avoid anything of parry

[winged obsidian]

lady butterfly was dead too

[sour lagoon]

Parrying is fun not everyone expects it

[worn wigeon]

this is why we use a curved sword to make it look cool

[lavish yacht]

Lot of people in these games are dead man just saying

[winged obsidian]

curved swords are the only swords they actually use semi correctly

[wispy bison]

im talking about fun, not cool

[balmy marsh]

Like soul dead

[sour lagoon]

Is parrying dagger almost as good as buckler?

[winged obsidian]

time travel

[wispy bison]

sekiro parying is better, i preffer guard counters, thats closer to actual parries irl

[sour lagoon]

One thing Sekiro got right

[winged obsidian]

sekiro got a lot right tbh

[wispy bison]

parrying in souls games is closer to disarming

[winged obsidian]

except maybe build diversity but it's a different type of game

[sour lagoon]

Except for replayability and fun weapons

[winged obsidian]

yeah

[lavish yacht]

Like he said it’s a different type of game

[sour lagoon]

Bloodborne parries are peak

[lavish yacht]

If you play sekiro thinking it’s gonna be dark souls you’re gonna be disappointed

[wispy bison]

no its still the same as parrying in dark souls

[sour lagoon]

Idek why I pre ordered sekiro

[wispy bison]

i dont want my enemy to become unable to attack and let me put him in an animation that does a million damage, thats not fun

[sour lagoon]

Maybe I thought there were be some more ninja/shinobi like weaponry

[wispy bison]

thats why any time enemies get guard broken in elden ring i just use a special move instead of a crit

[lavish yacht]

Prosthetic arts

[sour lagoon]

To be fair it was timing and skill

I find ripping out someone’s heart to be quite fun

Or lungs whatever

[winged obsidian]

the pigs

all the way to the elbow

[sour lagoon]

U gon learn honest work on da farm boy

[wispy bison]

i still dont care, i dont want my enemy to be unable to fight back

[winged obsidian]

honestly though BB is prolly my least favorite of the from catalogue

[sour lagoon]

I feel that

[wispy bison]

im making a capuccino

[sour lagoon]

I love Bloodborne

[winged obsidian]

maybe the walkable city is too much for my American stroad fried brain

[sour lagoon]

Yum

[sour lagoon]

Stroad

[winged obsidian]

street/road

[lavish yacht]

You’re just not British enough

[winged obsidian]

thankfully

[sour lagoon]

I have an ancient British bloodline

[winged obsidian]

don't we all

[lavish yacht]

Dark souls 2 is my least favorite for obvious reasons, literally the only souls game I have yet to finish

[wispy bison]

i like the first few areas of bloodborne and castle cainhurst

[sour lagoon]

Fair

[winged obsidian]

ds2 is my favorite

[wispy bison]

stuff gets real boring when cosmic horror hits, bloodborne does not do it well

[lavish yacht]

Oh you’re one of those

[winged obsidian]

it's like warm soup

[winged obsidian]

seems we both are

[timid tide]

I finally beat Metyr, I might have to do bed of chaos again but I think she was actually just my least favorite boss in all of the soulsborne games

[undone sparrow]

can someone please give me some runes so i can level up a bit

[sour lagoon]

I still like the cosmic horror and castle cainhurst is my favorite as well as hunters nightmare

[winged obsidian]

centipede demon is so ass you forget he exists till ya fight em

[lavish yacht]

If there’s one thing Bloodborne does well it’s cosmic horror

[rare coral]

oh you are one of '''those''' 🤨

[lavish yacht]

Yep

[winged obsidian]

wonder what boss has killed the most fromsoft players overall

[lavish yacht]

Pcr

[winged obsidian]

like which one has the highest kill tally

[winged obsidian]

nah definitely not he's dlc

[sour lagoon]

Fume knight, midir, pcr

[undone sparrow]

guys is the dlc worth it i might get it?

[rare coral]

i think it isnt pcr because people havent played the dlc like theyve played elden ring

[winged obsidian]

less people buy dlc than not so it's likely a base game boss

[rare coral]

elden ring pulled in A LOT of new players so i think it might be margit or anyone from the base game

[winged obsidian]

for me it's fume

my death tally was in the triple digits for him

[lavish yacht]

Malenia

[wispy bison]

i used to think i was just a cosmic horror hater but consuming other pieces of cosmic horror media showed me that fromsoft just sucks at it

[winged obsidian]

Malenia and Margit are my picks personally

[rare coral]

could be, but she's optionally and you need to do quite a lot of progression before getting to her

[winged obsidian]

capra demon may have the advantage of experience though

[wispy bison]

i would say fromsoft simply sucks at horror, but they made kuon, and thats one of the scariest games ive played

[rare coral]

i dont think it's malenia it might just be elden beast or just margit

[winged obsidian]

I do think malenia is up there in the top 5 at least

that was the boss I struggled the most with

[lavish yacht]

you’re probably just desensitized lol

[sour lagoon]

True

[winged obsidian]

her weird ass waterfowl cancelling thing

[raven fern]

Me

[wispy bison]

desensitized to horrors beyond my comprehension 💔

ctulhu awakens and im just like "whatever bro its mid"

you got me giggling irl

[winged obsidian]

how can you be mind broken by things beyond your comprehension, how would you understand it?

[lavish yacht]

Exactly

[winged obsidian]

with eldritch horror the real rub is that you can't comprehend the things you're perceiving but it's forcing you to anyway which scrambles your egg salad

like downloading the concept of taxes into the brain of an ant

[wispy bison]

the problem is exactly the human attempt to understand it that causes minds to break

the closer you get to the truth the more your mind degrades and melts

[winged obsidian]

yes

[wispy bison]

but the truth is still so far away, thats why its incomprehensible

or something idk

[winged obsidian]

in Lovecraft the eldritch beings were barely aware of their effects and presence to humans as well

most of the creatures and gods are fragments of greater beings, like skin cells or something

[sour lagoon]

I need to read my hp lovecraft collection

[winged obsidian]

I have one in my closet I pick through sometimes, I love the hounds of tindalos story

they inspired the evil teleporting pontiff dogs, which in turn inspired rune bears fun fact

[wispy bison]

"i need to read my jk rowling collection" ahh

[spring lantern]

Hey errbody just droppin in to say "hey 🗣✋"

[sour lagoon]

What does she have anything to do with this

[winged obsidian]

jk is lacking in the bigot to talent ratio

[wispy bison]

lovecraft was a mega racist

[sour lagoon]

Ohh that’s what

Right cause his cat

[winged obsidian]

Lovecraft may have been a horrible racist but he was a great world builder

[wispy bison]

dw about it hes dead so it doesnt matter anymore

death of author and allat

[winged obsidian]

but yeah he wrote a horror story where the horror was "diverse neighborhood in New York" lol

[sour lagoon]

Jk Rowling sucks for who she is

[winged obsidian]

weirdo

[lavish yacht]

Wasn’t loveceaft so racist the triple Ktold him to chill out

[lime token]

Yo should i buy elden ring or just buy two batman arkham games for 1/3 of the price?

[sour lagoon]

Get out

[winged obsidian]

and he also married a Jewish woman who essentially took care of him, and he told her something like "she should be grateful he married her" cause she was Jewish

so they divorced and he moved back to his isolated house in New England

[sour lagoon]

Wow

[wispy bison]

i think we shouldnt talk about this here, not that i dont think these topics shoulnt be talked about, its just the server

[rare coral]

zoran momdanis ney work

[sour lagoon]

Yea this server is too childlike

[winged obsidian]

indeed, well regardless he inspired some banger media

[wispy bison]

dangerous slip and slide

[worldly tundra]

Hey guys

[winged obsidian]

what does this mean

[rare coral]

idk

thats what they say man

[winged obsidian]

idk who they are

[half sentinel]

Hi

[sour lagoon]

I think it’s like Guyanese or Jamaican

Idk

[winged obsidian]

well new yorks always been a diverse place for like, a century or more now

you can find almost anyone from anywhere there

[sour lagoon]

The east coast is so much less bigoted than the Midwest it’s crazy

[winged obsidian]

I'm sure you can find a person who lived most of their life in a tribe in the Amazon jungle in New York

[wispy bison]

the rat population is very comfortable at new york and it appreciates the comunity

[lapis epoch]

counting or not counting boston

[wispy bison]

or so ive heard

[sour lagoon]

Why would I go there

[winged obsidian]

they'll be a photographer for the local newspaper forced to take pictures of spider themed heroes or something

[winged obsidian]

the rats will steal entire slices of pizza from people

[lapis epoch]

boston has a long history of being EXTREMELY racist lol

[sour lagoon]

What’s worse New York or London rats

[wispy bison]

well sometimes the rat king requires offerings

[winged obsidian]

London rats have centuries of experience but New York rats are more talented

London rats have a higher kill count than New York ones though

[wanton scaffold]

Elden Slop

Am I right lads?

[lapis epoch]

ngl i spent a week in new york a while back and only saw one rat i was impressed

[dense wharf]

I just got hit two times by a single spear stab and it one shot me?

[wanton scaffold]

Sounds like a case of....S K I LL issue

[lapis epoch]

what enemy killed u

[winged obsidian]

not new York related but once I saw an eagle flying off with a rat

[dense wharf]

An invader

[winged obsidian]

was it a great spear

[sour lagoon]

I remember loving Fievel goes west

[lapis epoch]

npc or online

[sour lagoon]

Even tho that was a mouse

[dense wharf]

Online

[sour lagoon]

It was a bad spear

[dense wharf]

My guess is that it was. It wasn't huge like 90% of the weapons in the game, but it was bigger than a regular spear

[sour lagoon]

Partisan?

[winged obsidian]

maybe Messmer's soldiers spear

[fresh ridge]

Anyone need help

[winged obsidian]

pvp builds are pretty disgusting sometimes

[dense wharf]

That would make sense. They were spamming messmer spells

[winged obsidian]

ah yes

fire serpent

[lapis epoch]

got invaded by lore accurate messmer

[winged obsidian]

Messmer when he's not depression nerfed

[wispy bison]

meow

i had such a cool dream today

i was on a dungeon with a party of adventurers, it was so fun, it was a very coherent dream too

[sour lagoon]

I wish I could dream more

[paper seal]

amazing

[granite charm]

Caattt

[sour lagoon]

I had a dream I was in ds1 one time I think I was in hell too

And it was kinda like that

[lavish yacht]

So lost izalith

[hexed kernel]

i never dream

[sour lagoon]

Imagine if fromsoft did their own Dante’s inferno

[lavish yacht]

Might as well start ds2 since it’s the last souls game I’ve yet to finish

I’ve held it off for too long

[sour lagoon]

I need to play demon souls

[dense wharf]

I've thought that a GoW style remake for Dante's Inferno would be awesome and very much fit the story

[lavish yacht]

About 2 and a half years ago I rushed to the final boss then I quit and never looked back

I had so much left to do tho including the DLCs

[sour lagoon]

I never played the game

I also barely touched the old gow games

[wispy bison]

i want more rpg games :(

[lavish yacht]

I don’t like the gow games tbh

[sour lagoon]

That’s why I barely touched them

[dense wharf]

It's an old style hack and slash like the old gow and maybe infamous. Very close to DMC actually

[sour lagoon]

Hack and slop

[wispy bison]

i wish there was more rpg fantasy games where i can make characters like dark souls

[sour lagoon]

Facts

I wish there were more souls games

[lavish yacht]

And more good souls likes

[sour lagoon]

I wish souls likes actually felt like souls

[lavish yacht]

Lotf Khazan lies of P and Wukong are the only ones I can think of off the top of my head

[sour lagoon]

Khazan and lotf I’ve heard good things about

[lavish yacht]

Khazan is my fav non fromsoft souls like

But unfortunately it’s never getting a sequel or dlc

Lotf 2 is coming out soon

[sour lagoon]

Aren’t people saying lotf ripped from dark souls for some reason

[lapis epoch]

i dont get why people call wukong a soulslike

[wispy bison]

im not necessarily talking about souls games, just fantasy rpgs with customization in general

but theres not alot out there aside from mmos

and i dont like mmos alot

[lavish yacht]

It’s the most like dark souls but far from a rip off

[sour lagoon]

There really isn’t enough good RPGs

I didn’t like Witcher or Skyrim

[lavish yacht]

I’m hyped for the sequel

[lavish yacht]

I could never get into them tbh

[sour lagoon]

Ive heard about dragons dogma being good and monster hunter

[lavish yacht]

The main reason is just like I don’t have time to pour that many hours into a single game rn

Because I know Witcher and Skyrim are like twice the length of Elden ring

[still wren]

dragons dogma is underrated, but its not a must play at all

its very stat dependent

[elfin cobalt]

wonderous flask tears cant be dropped right?

[kind quail]

I bought that over bg3 and im still mad over that

[sour lagoon]

Really too many shooters not enough fantasy

[wispy bison]

there is alot of fantasy rpgs, but just not the kind i like

theres just alot of jrpg

ive been looking trough steam to find rpg games and shi

like for example you have crimson desert

[still wren]

bg3 elden ring and botw are my game of the decade contenders

[wispy bison]

that would be good but it has no character customization

youre just that guy that i dont care about

[kind quail]

Of the decade kinda craze

[sour lagoon]

U talkin bout crimson desert

[lapis epoch]

i personally would exclude botw from this. 100% elden ring or bg3 imo

[wispy bison]

i would exclude bg3 🤢

[lapis epoch]

what do yall think was the best game in the 2010s

[still wren]

https://klipy.com/gifs/himemori-luna-hololive-4--k01KQ1JDNXM4047B2KCSZGXAZ7C

botw is legendary

[kind quail]

Titan fall 2

[wispy bison]

yes bro i literally said the name

[lapis epoch]

best fps ever

[rapid atlas]

[lapis epoch]

i see the appeal but theres so much i didnt like about the game ngl

[sour lagoon]

My eyes are getting tired

[wispy bison]

go bed

[sour lagoon]

[timber bloom]

Twilight Princess better

[still wren]

i bet ure one of those weapon durability complainers

[wispy bison]

we cannot adventure if youre tired

[sour lagoon]

But I have so much to dooo

[lapis epoch]

tbh id put ghost of tsushima over breath of the wild

[still wren]

botw has the best open world exploration in any game, ever

[native stream]

I liked botw so much more than any other open world game Ive played lol

[timber bloom]

Miyamoto, re-release Twilight Princess again. It'd be mad funny.

[native stream]

Including totk

[sour lagoon]

I gotta put away these chicken wings and my booze

[autumn sinew]

Went with deprived? Depraved? The wretch equivalent class.

[sour lagoon]

I can keep going if I drink more booze maybe

Forget a water bed how about a bed of water

[hexed kernel]

rdr2 maybe

[sour lagoon]

Thinking of the bath

[lapis epoch]

its a lot of personal preference stuff for me. i didnt find botws open world interesting, theres like no enemy variety, the combat felt weightless and didnt feel satisfying to me, the game is really easy, i found the dungeons and shrines boring

[sour lagoon]

lol

[timber bloom]

Anyway, Hickory dickory dock. My pet pitbull has ripped up my sock.

[winged obsidian]

yeah that mechanic sucks

[still wren]

i have a bottle of $10 wine and a $12 bottle of beer

[autumn sinew]

Not having a jump feels weird lol

[still wren]

no u 😭

[winged obsidian]

nah that mechanic is ass

[lapis epoch]

also weapon durability DOES suck

[sour lagoon]

What kind of beer is $12 a bottle

[still wren]

its a sandbox not a souls challenge game 😭

[sour lagoon]

I love wine

[winged obsidian]

it could be fine if it were more fleshed out

[wispy bison]

the weapon durability mechanic of botw is better than the weapon durability mechanic in look outside

[lapis epoch]

good take

[native stream]

Weapon durability is half the reason combat has any weight, I think its good

[winged obsidian]

being able to see the durability and repair weapons would be nice

[still wren]

not my pic

[native stream]

It forces resource management

[wispy bison]

look outside has a weapon durability mechanic based on sheer luck, you can pick up a weapon and if youre extremely unlucky it will break in 2 swings

[winged obsidian]

little QoL things like that would've helped it immensely

[lapis epoch]

this is entirely subjective but botws combat system felt super empty to me

[wispy bison]

ts is so ass

[desert robin]

Eden

[native stream]

The game does at least tell you when its max durability and low durability

[sour lagoon]

Omg that looks good

[sour lagoon]

Bruh

[paper seal]

I was the octopus guys best customers, always rocking up with my royal greatswords

[native stream]

It also tells you when weapons are brittle or not

[sour lagoon]

That’s terrible

[still wren]

it is, but nobody is playing botw for combat man

[native stream]

Ray

[desert robin]

Meow

[paper seal]

Botw was such an amazing time, felt magical

[lapis epoch]

i may just not like that kind of game. i personalyl found botw really boring

[winged obsidian]

yeah but it wouldn't have killed them to add a meter

[still wren]

its good, but nowhere near my fav, its a unique taste, but its just decent

[native stream]

No meter adds risk to it! And it also encourages reading item descriptions to get more background :D

[still wren]

i found rdr2 boring because the game forces me to do boring travelling half the time

[kind mountain]

You guys like Pallas cat?

[winged obsidian]

I've dumped thousands of hours into botw too and that's always gotten on my nerves

[sour lagoon]

I feel that always like trying different beers

[still wren]

botw exploration is legendary

[sour lagoon]

I’m drinking leinenkugel summer shandys

[gloomy canyon]

I wish there was another open world game similar to Elden Ring

[wispy bison]

there are special weapons that are less likely to break... but... less likely...

[winged obsidian]

it doesn't really, since you usually end up overstocking on weapons to avoid breaking all of them in combat

[native stream]

MY only big complaint about botw is the number of weapons you can just straight up miss entirely

[kind mountain]

Does Zelda counts

[wispy bison]

when your legendary weapon breaks you might aswell just restart

[gloomy canyon]

I enjoy Elden Ring but I liked it better when I was new

[winged obsidian]

it's probably my biggest flaw with the game

[still wren]

hmmm ive never seen this i dont think they sell it here

[sour lagoon]

It’s really good it’s like a German lemon beer

[lapis epoch]

my 2010s game of the decades picks would be like

rdr2
uncharted 3/4

[sour lagoon]

Like blue moon has orange in it

[still wren]

i like this

[paper seal]

yaa

[winged obsidian]

botw is a flawed masterpiece though so I'm not gonna dig into it too hard

[lapis epoch]

i can agree with this take. however rdr2s story is nearly perfect. botws is serviceable at best

[winged obsidian]

one of my favorite video games

[sour lagoon]

Never seen those but it’s probably similar

[winged obsidian]

rdr2 is up there as well

[still wren]

botw story was nonsense garbage 😭

[sour lagoon]

I also have a pint of Captain Morgan

[winged obsidian]

some people may disagree but I ignore them

[still wren]

captain morgan rum?

[sour lagoon]

Yup

[winged obsidian]

love my cowboy rp simulator

[sour lagoon]

You know I love my rum

And wine

[still wren]

i havent had many rums, but diplomatico is the one ive had most repeatedly

[sour lagoon]

And beer

[lapis epoch]

the only real criticism that i can give to rdr2 is that the gameplay wasnt improved like at all after gtav

[sour lagoon]

And vodka

[winged obsidian]

rdr2 has so many cool little details as well, like how opossums will play dead when you get near

[still wren]

rdr2 gameplay was an actual chore

[sour lagoon]

Never heard of it

[winged obsidian]

at least you don't have the same level of dumb physics as gta v

[lapis epoch]

it doesnt give you many reasons to be interested in it by itself for you. once i was actually invested in the story i foudn it way more fun

[fresh ridge]

Anyone need help

[winged obsidian]

where a minor nudge forces you into a ragdoll state

[lapis epoch]

rdr2s gameplay in mission acts more like setpieces then anything else

[still wren]

i like the story, but i cannot stand the waste of time between the main story

[sour lagoon]

Venezuelan huh

[winged obsidian]

rdr2 is a slower paced game where the intent is to take your time and explore, and the world is so detailed and full of little side quests that it's usually worthwhile

[sour lagoon]

I think back to the one mission where you’re just riding through the snowy mountain on a horse

[still wren]

vice versa for botw, the story and all is so bad, but 99% of ur time is spent on the legendary exploration

[lapis epoch]

honestly i found it fun doing whatever random side tasks came up while i was traveling

[winged obsidian]

it takes some time to get going but man when it does, it hits

[wispy bison]

i wish there were more games with the amazing magic system of dragons dogma

[winged obsidian]

that's like the first one

[wispy bison]

nerf holy focused bolt though

[lapis epoch]

this is the first mission man, its exposition

[sour lagoon]

🤣

[winged obsidian]

these rdr2 criticisms kinda sound like an attention span issue

[lapis epoch]

colter is slow and boring but it is exposition and a tutorial, gameplay takes a back seat because its introducing you to the story

[winged obsidian]

brainrot go crazy

[still wren]

i once ran into a gang that blocked the road in rdr2, i got off my horse and shot them all then thought "wow, what a pointless waste of my time i shouldve just teleported there"

[sour lagoon]

I got all the way to a little bit after the train robbery

I got bored

[winged obsidian]

you didn't have to shoot them all lol

[still wren]

then what purpose do they serve?

[winged obsidian]

you also can fast travel in rdr2

[sour lagoon]

Maybe I should try dragons dogma next should I start with 1 or 2

[winged obsidian]

did you try conversing with them

[lapis epoch]

i would encourage you to try again. i also dropped the game around this point in my first playthrough then picked it back up and loved it after giving it a second chance

[still wren]

thats my point tho 😭 i wish i just teleported

[pastel cove]

guys how do i beat phase 2 messmer at level 22

[wispy bison]

1 because 2 sucks but be warned its a hard game to get into

[pastel cove]

i have morgotts cursed sword +7

[sour lagoon]

Why’s that

[still wren]

no, im only interested in the main story because all the side things are just basically extended cutscenes

[winged obsidian]

what does that even mean

[wispy bison]

lots of tedious time consuming things, but youll learn to like them, its all part of the experience

[sour lagoon]

If I’m gonna play a cutscene game I’m playing uncharted

[still wren]

it means that im just watching a movie, not playing a game 😭

[paper seal]

I don't think it has anything to do with attention span. Like we be eating and drinking for movies since way before attention span was brought up, because we need something to do while watching. Walking simulators just isn't it for the majority of people

[still wren]

indeed

even then, uncharted 1 2 and 3 kinda sucked

[sour lagoon]

Idk I loved them

[lapis epoch]

on the topic of super critically acclaimed games from the 2010s, hot take maybe but the last of us is a 7-8 tops

[still wren]

4 is the best, but zero replayability

[winged obsidian]

calling rdr2 a walking simulator is kinda crazy

[lapis epoch]

3 is great

[still wren]

3's story is prolly the worst one of the lot

[wispy bison]

a cutscene game i remember liking was detroit become human

[paper seal]

my goodman the section where you do nothing but ride is what I'm referring to

[sour lagoon]

30 bucks on ps store

[wispy bison]

i wish there was like, a castlevania game with character creation... and that was co op...

[lapis epoch]

id agree with you in general but i will defend that specific section because thats at teh very beginning on the game. you are walking and listening because the game is introducing you to the story

[winged obsidian]

the exposition is kind of half the point

[sour lagoon]

Right not a platform game

Was v rising any good

[still wren]

stardew is my 3rd most played game of all time and it is leagues more entertaining than rdr2

[paper seal]

It's a valid complain nonetheless, the beginning should hook you, the first impression is important

[winged obsidian]

I mean if you don't like it that's fine of course, but the game is very well made

[lapis epoch]

i do agree to an extent.

[winged obsidian]

idk what you mean, the first mission was peak. Slow but it's a great introduction to the characters of the gang

[lapis epoch]

@winged obsidian do you think rdr2 would have been better or worse if it started during the blackwater heist

[paper seal]

Yaa I've played stardew valley from scratch thrice on 3 devices I know what you mean

it's also a vibe

[wispy bison]

why not?

[sour lagoon]

Idk I sat down to play castlevania at an arcade and didn’t play for long

[still wren]

rdr2 would be better if it just took all that pointless horse mechanics and gave us jin sakai's horse

[wispy bison]

oh i just found out bloodstained has co op, its couch co op but i can play trough steam remote play, thats something

[winged obsidian]

I like the details of blackwater being a little muddy and unclear. I think it may have been worse if they'd shown it because it would've set people's opinion of Dutch too low before the start of the game

[wispy bison]

rubs my hands together in a mischievous way

[winged obsidian]

nah dog, maxing your bond level with your horse is peak

[lapis epoch]

good take tbh

[winged obsidian]

he changes his tone of voice when you do!

[sour lagoon]

There’s this place called taps it’s an arcade bar pretty cool place

[still wren]

who cares man 😭

[winged obsidian]

well, not everyone can appreciate fine art of course

[still wren]

jin sakai's horse does one job, let u ride when u need to go somewhere, and it does it perfectly fine 😭

rdr2 horse however, can die

[autumn sinew]

Who is the samari guy at the start of DS3? He dropped some loot

[still wren]

and leave you stranded

[sour lagoon]

Dude outside fire link?

[winged obsidian]

yeah it's implied he killed that girl the same way he did to the lady in rdr1

[winged obsidian]

then steal someone else's

[still wren]

if u havent unlocked any teleport points yet and ur horse dies, ure now stuck walking to the closest town

[autumn sinew]

Idk, killed the first boss and then went up the left side of the mountain. He dropped a uchigatana and some masters armor

[sour lagoon]

Oh no

[lapis epoch]

i think a big part of the game narratively is watching dutchs descent into madness and thats almost definitely spoiled if the first thing you see is blackwater

[wispy bison]

oohh, i can play salt and sanctuary too, salt and sacrifice, those too have co op and are metroidvanias in a way, with character creation too!!!

[autumn sinew]

Club seemed to lock him down pretty good

[winged obsidian]

I'd hesitate to call it a decent to madness, and more of an unraveling

[wispy bison]

yo this kinda peak, i hope steam remote play dont let me down

[sour lagoon]

Crap my phone is on 2%

[lapis epoch]

calling is a descent to madness is a oversimplication for sure

[winged obsidian]

Dutch at his core always had a lot of darkness in his heart, it's just that when his gang was taken from him he couldn't run from that for much longer after

[lapis epoch]

dutch cares more about his own interests and how he is perceived by others then anything else like the entire game

[winged obsidian]

even at the beginning you see Hosea trying non violent jobs while Dutch immediately goes for the guns blazing

[lapis epoch]

he just slowly drops the mask at the end

[winged obsidian]

even while they're being hunted by the feds

[wispy bison]

someone is working on a dragons dogma co op mod, this will be fire

[still wren]

o yeh

[sour lagoon]

Should I mod Skyrim

I hated base Skyrim

[winged obsidian]

he's a man who believes himself to be more civilized and sophisticated and intelligent than he really is

[still wren]

no, skyrim overrated

modded skyrim is better, but still not good

[winged obsidian]

you see that with Lenny and Uncle

[autumn sinew]

I didnt walk forward enough, yeah outside fire link

[still wren]

modding skyrim is for nostalgia bait

[autumn sinew]

Cant open the gate tho

[sour lagoon]

Idk how is magic in Skyrim?

[still wren]

bad

[sour lagoon]

I just want more fantasy

Ugh

[lapis epoch]

hot take maybe but basically every 2010s bethesda game is a horrible experience vanilla. their games age extremely poorly

[sour lagoon]

Hogwarts legacy is the worst

[winged obsidian]

Lenny actually read Evelyn Miller, the man Dutch worshipped and gave a dissimination so accurate even Evelyn himself agreed, and Uncle said he was "a king with his royal knights"

[still wren]

idk i always thought all bethesda games sucked

i have no idea what the 2010s people were smoking

[lapis epoch]

i dont personally like any of the ones i have tried but i played them all several years after release so

[winged obsidian]

starfield being their passion project should be a red flag for all their future endeavors

[sour lagoon]

Hogwarts legacy feels like a f2p

[still wren]

ironically starfield is the only bethesda game where i played 4 hours of

[lapis epoch]

fallout 4 was boring as hell

[winged obsidian]

that's what they can muster without an ip to leech

[timid tide]

Chat I got the sword of light and I swear to god I wanna do a paladin build now

[lapis epoch]

if we count doom as a bethesda game those games are peak but they didnt develop doom

[winged obsidian]

fallout 4 is a game I loved, then liked, then disliked severely

the more I played it the less I liked it

[sour lagoon]

I was gonna do a Nika roleplay with sword of light and star fists with buckler

[winged obsidian]

the hunting rifle pisses me off so much how they take their eyes out of the scope to rack the bolt, which defeats the entire point of a damn bolt action

also the story is ass

[sour lagoon]

This close to playing Fortnite

[still wren]

i want some games with peak stories

i might try disco elysium soon

but it looks like an insane amount of reading

[sour lagoon]

Is horizon zero dawn a good game

[winged obsidian]

try it, it's good for you

[still wren]

5/10 most mid game of all time

[winged obsidian]

yeah it's alright

[hexed kernel]

play expedition

[still wren]

already did on release

[winged obsidian]

I liked horizon's world building

I'm a sucker for the neolithic inspired vibe

[sour lagoon]

Is far cry primal fun

[hexed kernel]

idk

i have only played farcry 3
one of my favourite games

[still wren]

its literally just fc 5 reskinned

[winged obsidian]

there needs to be more neolithic era games

[still wren]

which fc5 is just fc4 reskinned

[dusk raptor]

I love how it feels to go from casually playing the game in the previous playthrough, to getting various golden seeds and sacred tears, and going straight to Grail

[lapis epoch]

im not convinced anybody actually cares about the horizon ip. industry plant console exclusive

[still wren]

100%

[winged obsidian]

it was fun for the few dozen hours I dumped into it

[wispy bison]

the game doesnt look that bad ngl, i played a bit but it just wasnt for me

[lapis epoch]

didnt primal come out before 5

[still wren]

horizon gameplay is mid, the story is mid, the music is mid

[winged obsidian]

but it's not all that memorable, save the world building

[still wren]

oh idk 😭 all modern fc games are just reskins of 3

[hexed kernel]

how was far cry 6

[lavish yacht]

People play those games?

[sour lagoon]

Far cry 4 was dope

[winged obsidian]

Giancarlo has been playing Gus in every role since bb I swear

[hexed kernel]

far cry 3 is the best far cry game

[lavish yacht]

Don’t fix it if it ain’t broke ig

[winged obsidian]

I should finish the dead space remake tbh

[wispy bison]

bloodborne???

[still wren]

yall should try road to vostok

[mental yarrow]

o

[wispy bison]

ive been googlin and apparently steam remote play has been drastically improved

[spice imp]

Hi

[wispy bison]

rubs my hands together mischeviously

the curse of the moon is coming

[spice imp]

Is this where I would ask for something to be dropped Loki stuck

[sour lagoon]

My phone is on 1% I must charge it

[wispy bison]

goodby jon

[sour lagoon]

Goodbye iris

[winged obsidian]

they should make more horror games where the main character is an engineer looking for their lover

or someone emotionally significant

not enough of those

[wispy bison]

signalis?

[still wren]

one day ill have enough big boy pants for amnesia

[still wren]

dead space

😭

[winged obsidian]

already beat signalis

[wispy bison]

oh

i thought they were talking about signalis

[lilac quartz]

Hey it's that game by a person who's from the same country I'm from, torille 🇫🇮

[wispy bison]

dead space stops being that after dead space 1

[winged obsidian]

I was actually thinking of dead space and alien isolation

[winged obsidian]

as if the second one isn't the best

[wispy bison]

i lowkey love dead space 3, crafting weapons was so fun, idk why people hated it

[winged obsidian]

man they should've made a 3rd one

[wispy bison]

its for sure my favorite dead space

[winged obsidian]

shame they NEVER did

[wispy bison]

dude i remember dead space 2 being tedious as hell

i remember lowkey begging for the game to end

[winged obsidian]

weird tastes but to each their own

[wispy bison]

i saw like a youtube video of someone playing on that specific part and i was like oh god no

[winged obsidian]

I appreciated the enemy diversity

[mental yarrow]

preach, i got it on my wall

[sleek pecan]

[wispy bison]

no im not talking about the eye needle scene

[winged obsidian]

I love stalker type enemies that lay ambushes

gotta be one of my favorite genders

[wispy bison]

im talking about a part of the gameplay towards the end where you get constantly assailed by necromorph toddlers and you have to hold them off

that was so cheeks, and everything after that

[winged obsidian]

you didn't play that part?

[wispy bison]

?

[winged obsidian]

like, did you play that part or just watch it

[wispy bison]

i played the whole game

im saying it was an extremely tedious area

and everything after it

[winged obsidian]

ah I see.

well tastes vary. I will say I didn't like the shoe horned love interest though, that was weird af

[wispy bison]

i loved dead space 3 though

[winged obsidian]

especially since from his perspective, the ishumra incident was a few weeks prior

[kind mountain]

Pick a number 1-4

[wispy bison]

i remember when i was a little kid i was so scared i would craft this weapon that was like a spining lightning bola that would sick to the ground and cause the enemies to get stasised, and i would just sit on a corner and spam that because i was scared as hell

[timid tide]

I wanna share my immaculate drip but I cannot post images in elden fashion 😔

[wispy bison]

so sad the magnum recipe is so late into the game, i remember i love loading that gun with so many damage upgrades a bullet to the chest will kill a necromorph, no limb cutting needed

[hexed kernel]

[still wren]

its time to sleep at a healthy time

1130pm

[lilac quartz]

Good night 👋 Sleep guud

[kind mountain]

Choose a name for my character

[hexed kernel]

what kind of

[kind mountain]

Fear and hunger

[wispy bison]

good nightmares

[gray wraith]

It's no use

[kind mountain]

Name my fear and hunger character

[winged obsidian]

Kay

[lilac quartz]

Oskar Kay, "O-Kay" to their friends

[winged obsidian]

Kay cause it's easy to say, neutral, and sounds nice

[hexed kernel]

what kind of

[kind mountain]

my character is a thief

[winged obsidian]

Filbo

[wispy bison]

as much as i love bloodstained for trying to be its own castlevania

[hexed kernel]

sly

[wispy bison]

zangetsu is just irish american man wearing a kimono png

i dont fw the characters design too much if im being honest

lowkey corny

[winged obsidian]

sounds like chipp

[wispy bison]

whos chipp

[lilac quartz]

I dunno anything about Bloodstained, except the theme for that one game's first level slaps

A buddy speedran it once but I didn't pay much attention during their streams, just vibed

[coarse nacelle]

HI

[lilac quartz]

Moonlight Temptation it was called

[wispy bison]

i like alot of the songs

Moonlit dance with Death

kinda peak, its a good saga, it has the vibes, the music, the exploration, the gameplay, its all nailed down

the characters are just kinda corny as hell though

[molten lichen]

Marigga or Marika? Who wins

[tender brook]

Ayo what twin 🥀

[mental yarrow]

hey my brother in username

[tender brook]

Wassgood, my grandfather from another great grandmother

[atomic tapir]

It’s okay chat I’m here now

@celest remnant are links normally allowed in the passdown channel

[kind mountain]

ranga heads or tails

[atomic tapir]

Tails

[kind mountain]

we lost

[tardy apex]

if I burn the sealing tree what does that lock me out of?

[trim juniper]

leda's crew's quest if you haven't done that yet

[timid tide]

If it's a quest, the answer is probably, I'd do everything you wanna do first

[atomic tapir]

Damn

[atomic tapir]

Just questlines and some items

The items you miss aren’t that important iirc, no major weapons or anything

[round hare]

today I ate a cookie

[atomic tapir]

I’m proud of you

[round hare]

?????

[round hare]

thank you mario

[atomic tapir]

Demi human queen Marigga

Or queen Marika

[jagged widget]

Margit, Margot, or Morgott?

[atomic tapir]

Margot the goat

[tardy apex]

today I ate a med-rare wagu stake cooked on char coal grill....beats cookie 😛

[round hare]

not particularly but you do you

[livid dust]

yoo

how are we?

[slow iron]

Hi

[atomic tapir]

Servers dead

[lean prairie]

Chat I fell off my swing and landed face first in woodchips

So yeah that hurts

Wouldn't recommend

[lime topaz]

is powerstance bandit curved sword still the best bleed build

[lean prairie]

Honestly, wouldn't know

Go find some Reddit thread or smth those are very useful lol

[lime topaz]

oh ok

[atomic tapir]

Go assert dominance and fist fight the wood chips

[atomic tapir]

No but it’s a very effective multihit build

[lean prairie]

My guy I left a comical Looney Toons lookin face implant in them I'm too embarrassed and in agony to punch them

[atomic tapir]

The best “bleed” build (if you’re talking nuts n bolts) would be like Bloodfiends arm or sumn. Multihit build however. Garg twinblades

[atomic tapir]

Need some ice homie.

[lean prairie]

I gave up on that three hours ago and started taking more pain meds than I care to admit

My face is still bleeding

[atomic tapir]

Ye just gotta wait that one out

[lean prairie]

I probably have a concussion ngl but hey free excuse to not work

[lean prairie]

A practical man

[lime topaz]

wait are curved swords worse than twinblades now

[fleet pond]

[lean prairie]

By the way, what about Bloodblade dance for multihit?

Or are we not counting something already infused/with a unique skill?

[lean prairie]

Hola

[atomic tapir]

Always have been

[fleet pond]

Hello

Hi ranga

[lean prairie]

My cat is tryna help by licking my face

[lime topaz]

oh ok mb

[lean prairie]

This is not fun at all

I'd give it like a 2/10 experience on Yelp wouldn't recommend

[atomic tapir]

You could count Marais as the best for sheer dps, but you need to time the attack and blah blah blah

[lean prairie]

Industrial grade meat grinder on a V8 is always worth it

[atomic tapir]

Garg twinblades are just all around better cause you don’t need a certain window for them you can just use the jl1 and boom boom shakala

[wispy bison]

ragna youre just another labubu

[atomic tapir]

Amen to that

[atomic tapir]

Imma take that as a compliment

[lean prairie]

Aight I'm gonna try to sleep without rolling over onto my face

Nightmare difficulty

[atomic tapir]

Gn homie

[lean prairie]

Peace

[lime topaz]

hb godskin peelers bruh

[kind mountain]

What’s a low cortisol game I should play

[dusk raptor]

Guys I just beat Margit at level 15 as a Prisoner with not upgraded weapons, which are the Glintstone Staff and Twinblade. Though, I did use Rogier.

[lime topaz]

dmc

[paper seal]

yo congrats gang

[kind mountain]

Is devil may cry low cortisol

[paper seal]

zote is not a real boss

we cannot be serious

[paper seal]

outer wilds

[harsh wharf]

Campingcoach never hopped on Rounds btw y'all...

[main viper]

If you want all achievements then no

[paper seal]

portal

or just hop on bloons

[paper seal]

is what it is

[harsh wharf]

Time for EVIL thoughts because I'm feeling EVIL

[paper seal]

you are smiling though

[harsh wharf]

Evil people smile

More than good people do usually

[main viper]

RE7

[paper seal]

then I must be evil

[lime topaz]

for me yeah, low cortisol high dopamine

[hexed kernel]

now beat him at level 1 with only the starter weapon

[dusk raptor]

My guy it's my second playthrough 😭

[kind mountain]

What’s that

[paper seal]

despair

[hexed kernel]

second playthrough is a good time for an RL1 run

[paper seal]

it's worth the experience though, even if you don't finish it

But I wouldn't call it low cortisol

[hexed kernel]

i am convinced that RE is like top 5 most popular video game series

[wispy bison]

so are we genuinelly not getting episode 2 of steel ball run till next year

[paper seal]

wasn't is fall

[wispy bison]

thank you everyone who cried about not being weekly releases, now we get nothing 🔥

[paper seal]

it's a great franchise

[wispy bison]

was*

[paper seal]

The remakes are great and so is their newest title

[kind mountain]

Mint ice cream isn’t bad!!!

[wispy bison]

lying for no reason

[paper seal]

Weekly is simply better than batches once in a blue moon

Of course crying online wasn't gonna change their business practice but I understand the frustration

[wispy bison]

imagine crying about someone watching the show when they want to watch it instead of when you want to watch it

[paper seal]

I actually enjoyed requiem alot, it was their first game I finished with ease

[sharp ruin]

playing nightreign with a bunch of randoms is genuinely the worst experience ever

[quaint bobcat]

depends on how much is allocated but ye

[kind mountain]

It’s funny for sure

[wispy bison]

bellona did you just wake up today and decided to say stuff that will make me specifically angry

[quaint bobcat]

worse than gargoyles

[scarlet hull]

bruh this is so unfair of elden ring if i buy the dlc in usa and want to play on my other account that is registered as europe it wont let me even play it like it shows that its there and installed but it doesnt even exist

[sharp ruin]

anyone wanna play

[paper seal]

That's how multiplayer games without your squad are

[wispy bison]

change your accounts region?

i heard you can do that but it takes a while to get done

[kind mountain]

Where u from I don’t wanna lag

[scarlet hull]

impossible

on ps5

[paper seal]

I wasn't planning to but oh well

[wispy bison]

DAMN

console users just keep losing wtf

thats crazy bro

you buy a console and the company decides when and how you use it 💔

[scarlet hull]

this is how elden ring decided

[paper seal]

A switch and a pc you need nothing else

[scarlet hull]

i will not lie pc is way more easier but ps5 will always be better in terms of enjoyment of games that you get to play (ps exclusives) 🫩

[paper seal]

what exclusives does the ps have, didn't they put most on steam already

[scarlet hull]

after 2-3 years?

[sharp ruin]

USA

[kind mountain]

im from china i dont think i can play with that lag 😭

[wispy bison]

is waiting a little such a big issue?

[paper seal]

where there's a will there's a way

[paper seal]

That's preference but most games if you don't give in to fomo, after a week it doesn't matter if you have to wait years to play the game, unless you have an absolute desire to play that last even longer than the initial hype or your peeps are on it

The biggest factor is the release creating a sense of I must have this because it's new, but that dies down after a week and then you start to look at it rationally

[wispy bison]

fomo

and consoles have no access whatsoever to indies

unless they hit it big

[arctic frost]

Yeah, not like there aren't games on PC you don't get on PS. At least not day 1 too.

[wispy bison]

i dont think fear and hunger coming to ps5

[round hare]

malenia probably smells awful

to be fair I think the tarnished probably does as well

[paper seal]

The only game that's worth having a console for is Unicorn Overlord but that's on switch as well

[main viper]

Pc better

[round hare]

we don't wash our ass

I suppose its pretty on par with irl too

[main viper]

Damn

[proud bronze]

Why do I open this chat to read this

[main viper]

Who’s “we”?

[wispy bison]

idk its crazy how chat can go from normal conversation to this in an instant

[round hare]

all of us

including iris

[proud bronze]

Do some people just not think before they write?

[scarlet hull]

yea im good im not gonna die out of boredom just to wait 2-3 years to play some game that isnt gonna even hold the hype anymore when so much games can drop in the mean time

[main viper]

What game u talking about

Everything is on steam nowadays

[wispy bison]

if only there were other games to play 🥀

[hexed kernel]

what did you read

[paper seal]

There are so many great games though

[wispy bison]

dying of boredom because i didnt get to play god of war on release

[spare spear]

Chrs man

Good day to u to

[main viper]

Ps5 not worth it

I’m sorry el cinco

[proud bronze]

Honestly I didn’t like the newest God of War

[scarlet hull]

good luck playing wolverine without getting spoiled

[main viper]

That shi look buns anyways

[paper seal]

And it's not like gaming is the only medium there is, like read a book or watch a show

[proud bronze]

There’s no games on Ps i find interesting enough to ever consider getting one ngl

[wispy bison]

its crazy how id have to buy a console just to pay a service to use my own internet service that im already paying for so i can play bloodborne and nothing else 💔

[main viper]

Every sony exclusive has the same boring plot

[paper seal]

Real, paying to use your own internet

[spare spear]

The only game that I’m waiting for is halo campaign evolved ngl

[wispy bison]

thats funny i actually did that, i bought a ps3 JUST to play demons souls, after i beat the game like 5 times or more i sold the ps3

[proud bronze]

I mean the game series I like release on all consoles, I have a pc, and the great thing about that is I can use it for other things as well.

[main viper]

Just emulate 💔

[spare spear]

Also the new Xbox CEO, I’m hoping she stays for a while, she’s doing so good

[paper seal]

If it was worth it

[paper seal]

Yaa

Like with how expensive a ps is just get a pc

[proud bronze]

I mean there are services to rent a ps

[paper seal]

The two games that release each year are not worth it, granted you have the space

[wispy bison]

do they even sell ps5? arent they like extremely hard to comeby still

[proud bronze]

If I ever feel the need to play a ps game i’ll rent a console lmao

[paper seal]

Which you should because you only need a big desk

[proud bronze]

I think it’s gotten better

[hot dome]

not at all theyre fine to buy now

[paper seal]

That you can rent a ps is wild

[hot dome]

i see them in stores all the time, sometimes at discounts

[scarlet hull]

man having a ps5 is not that expensive yall extremely cheap if you think it is

[wispy bison]

fair

[proud bronze]

Yeah, at least here in Germany you can. A few stores have that service

[arctic frost]

The disastrous live service push really did a number on the PS5 generation

[hexed kernel]

idk
i havent played any god of war
but i think ragnarok almost won goty

[wispy bison]

became buyable by the time the exclusives went to pc

[hot dome]

different situations for different folks

[hot dome]

its been buyable for a while icl

[proud bronze]

Fair, i just personally think I didn’t like it, but I understand those that did enjoy the game

[scarlet hull]

if you have a proper job there shouldnt be a problem

[wispy bison]

you cant even play classic games on console right

[proud bronze]

I don’t think the issue of the ps5 is the price.

[wispy bison]

theres no backwards compatibility

[spare spear]

Elden ring had it from the start

[hot dome]

different situations for different folks lol

[spare spear]

Reasons why Xbox better

[hot dome]

yeah

[jagged widget]

Hello cools

[scarlet hull]

i guess so but if yall get to play games i dont think yall situation is to shabby

[wispy bison]

arguably i mean

[proud bronze]

And you do know that even if you have a proper job, it doesn’t mean you want to spend money on a console you can literally just switch with a Pc that has several other functions as well

[hot dome]

xbox nailed it with backwards compat and i will always hate sony for failing to follow

[proud bronze]

Hi there quack

[wispy bison]

pc is still above because microsoft owns xbox

[jagged widget]

Hi mod breaker dain

[arctic frost]

Lol Xbox

[hot dome]

pc will always be better than console obv

[wispy bison]

and theres the xbox gamepass on pc, and just generally you can get xbox games trough the pc xbox store

[proud bronze]

Why am I a mod breaker, am I missing something

[hot dome]

its just easier for some dudes to have a console

[spare spear]

Quick resume is also fantastic

[proud bronze]

Wait is this just because i’m on break

Quack i’m stupid.

[spare spear]

I’m not that rich tho currently

[icy prairie]

o-ohayo friends!!!

[jagged widget]

This is a strange wording thing that's exclusively funny in my head
You're on mod break

[hot dome]

all in due time brotha

[arctic frost]

Xbox changing its logo back to green, huge news for the fans

[proud bronze]

Yeah i got it I was being dumb

[hot dome]

they changed their logo?

[wispy bison]

theres a literal xbox app that comes as default with windows that lets you buy xbox games

[spare spear]

I’m tryna save up for one, it would help me plenty

[wispy bison]

genuinelly just buy a pc at this point

[proud bronze]

Yeh, but you can buy most on steam anyways and didn’t they start a partnership or something?

[spare spear]

Yeah cus the new CEO is acc cooking

[main viper]

Steam machine

[wispy bison]

dunno, i think i saw a playstation partnership with steam if i recall correctly

[icy prairie]

@tranquil hedge

[main viper]

No Sony is backing out from pc ports

[winter kestrel]

Can anyone help me create a Maliketh s black blade build lvl 123 for late game
Ive killed radabeast

[proud bronze]

Sony doesn’t want their games released anywhere else

[arctic frost]

Sony is backing from PC ports of their single player (so actually decent) games, yeah. We still get the live service slop thankfully.

[proud bronze]

They think it’s going to make people buy the ps5 more

I just doubt it will have the effect they think it will

[main viper]

Buy ps5 and pc

[winter kestrel]

Please

[hot dome]

last thing we saw about playstation and pc was a leak on their website showing a "cross buy" button suggesting that theyre making their own launcher

[wispy bison]

damn, no more uhh...? horizon zero dawn on pc?

[arctic frost]

I can live without their 2 yearly exclusives, I'm good

[wispy bison]

😭

[hot dome]

this leak was months ago however and no more news has come from it

[spare spear]

Xbox is slowly getting better

[proud bronze]

I mean they have some good games but I just won’t waste my money on that console

[paper seal]

yea

[jagged widget]

It's slowly setting in a new norm

[main viper]

Most recent port was DS2

[wispy bison]

another thing consoles missing out on is being able to play couch co op games online, there are several apps that will let you do couch co op games online and even steam has that feature

[proud bronze]

Ehh, they are going the Nintendo route

[hot dome]

the norm of console exclusives has existed for as long as consoles have

there is nothing new about keeping games on your console only

[wispy bison]

if your friend lives far away and youre a console player, rip

[winter kestrel]

Anyone please

[jagged widget]

Consoles are trying to get rid of PC gaming, whilst now mobile gaming is on a rise

[hot dome]

#community-help

[proud bronze]

Thing is that won’t really work, also xbox is partnering up with steam

[wispy bison]

yeah its just not gonna be possible

[arctic frost]

Oh boy, I wonder what the next Sony single player exclusive is gonna be... Surely not a by-the-numbers, narrative driven, 3rd person over the shoulder camera, cinematic action-adventure game with light RPG elements and a sappy story

[main viper]

With a father figure and son/daughter

[wispy bison]

however once gabe newell dies from old age, steam gamers might be screwed

[arctic frost]

Preferably

[wispy bison]

it might genuinelly be over

[paper seal]

from what I heard he is immortal

[jagged widget]

At least they make good headphones

[wispy bison]

if we all pray hard enough, maybe

[proud bronze]

[paper seal]
