there was a time when I was playing ds3 a lot,might've fatigued from that
OR the game is fucking huge so it's a looooooong replay compared to other souls game
need to finish demon's souls remake as well
some day
to be fair that second run is already at more than 45 hours
green quiver
Aight time to give this game a try

Aight time to give this game a try
Good luck man !

take that goat-faced hobo
That's what you get for bullying me two days in a row on release

Idk why this makes me laugh so much
the way the spear and the RoB just slides in at the last moment

fextralife's comment section is my favorite online aspect of souls games
unhinged, and yet so relatable in their madness
south yarrow
unhinged, and yet so relatable in their madness
but is it as good as the great age of hollowing before we were graced with the elden ring release ?
viscid cedar
is anyone else other than me on hopium for DeS PC port?
south yarrow
is anyone else other than me on hopium for DeS PC port?
well...about as much chances as there is of a bloodborne pc port
you could try to emulated the ps3 version and see if there's any good graphism mods or something
cus,like bloodborne was at the begining of the ps4...it's one of the few ps5 exclusives.it's not coming to pc anytime soon
viscid cedar
I'm hopiuming based on the one explanation for why Bloodborne wasn't on PC
because apparently Bloodborne had a lot of spaghetti code for it and requires help form Fromsoft while DeS remake was almost entirely by Bluepoint, a studio they own
and considering that a lot of Playstation exclusives from that time frame coming to PC with the exception of DeS while they don't have the excuse of Bloodborne spaghetti code this whole idea feels off to me
south yarrow
because apparently Bloodborne had a lot of spaghetti code for it and requires he...
demon's souls has also been stuck with sony since the first one came out,in like,2009 or something
it's not happenning
viscid cedar
I'm talking of the remake
viscid cedar
and they didn't really care about porting games those times
south yarrow
sony will not take its claws out of one of their fromsoftware exclusives,especially now that they sell like crazy
viscid cedar
Spiderman, GOW, Horizon, Detroit and Death Stranding all came to PC
and a decent chunk of them are Sony IPs
viscid cedar
again,
viscid cedar
I highly doubt it
south yarrow
it's unlikely.
it'd be nice if happen,but...yeah.I don't see it happenning at all.
or anytime soon,should I say ?
south yarrow
they need as many reasons to make people buy ps5 as they can
the whole reason why the previous GOW comes to pc is to make people want to get a ps5 for gow ragnarok
viscid cedar
and DeS not making the cut for PC ports just feels inconsistent with their behavior so far
viscid cedar
the whole reason why the previous GOW comes to pc is to make people want to get ...
Detroit made it in
and that doesn't have a sequel does it
south yarrow
not really...for spiderman,it's the previous one no tthe miles morales that came out recently,right ?
same with horizon,it's the first one on pc,not the recent one
they know what they're doing.
they're fishing pc players to ps5,or they're trying to at least
viscid cedar
not really...for spiderman,it's the previous one no tthe miles morales that came...
morales also made it to PC
south yarrow
hu,surprising
what about hte other two
I already know it's not the case for GOW
but what about horizon
viscid cedar
not as of yet
south yarrow
viscid cedar
but new Horizon is barely older than ER
wait its even newer
it came out same month
south yarrow
wich was a stupid decision
between those 2 open world games,wich one to pick ?
I've played horizon 1,it's a decent game but maaaan...
viscid cedar
I would say that its likely that the new Horizon will also come to PC
viscid cedar
I just hope there will be announcement for DeS this year
south yarrow
yeah,don,'t hold your breath for that
viscid cedar
man
south yarrow
if that happens it'll be much later I'd say
IF
big fat if
jsut emulate the ps3 game
viscid cedar
I don't think they would just prefer to make a different call just because its a Fromsoft title
south yarrow
it's not like there's anything more than remade graphism in the remake
south yarrow
I don't think they would just prefer to make a different call just because its a...
it's more like the different call was made on the specific games that came to pc,years after they came to ps4 mostly
viscid cedar
I'm also betting that Ragnarok will come to PC in a couple of years
viscid cedar
it's more like the different call was made on the specific games that came to pc...
Bloodborne is early PS4
south yarrow
I'm also betting that Ragnarok will come to PC in a couple of years
yeah,no,wait longer.much longer.
I'm still seething that we never got a ps5 patch for bloodborne
viscid cedar
all these new PC port games came out in late PS4 era
south yarrow
so it's stuck at 30 fps for no reason
viscid cedar
none are older than 2017
south yarrow
all these new PC port games came out in late PS4 era
gow and horizon are more midps4 life I believe
viscid cedar
they are still fairly newer than Bloodborne
south yarrow
not entirely sure,I've lost my sense of time a bit before the ps4 came out anyway
south yarrow
but the thing is,sony knows bloodborne was a system seller that saved their asses with the lackluster set of games for ps4.and while not on the same scale,it was the case with ps5 too
they also remember what happened with mosnter hunter
viscid cedar
but the thing is,sony knows bloodborne was a system seller that saved their asse...
Bloodborne wasn't really the next TLOU man
south yarrow
monster hunter went to 3DS instead of psvita...and thus psvita sales were dead,meanwhile it was a system seller for psp.they are very afraid for some
viscid cedar
tlou is 2013
south yarrow
but hwhat you forget is tlou was on ps3
viscid cedar
late PS3 era
south yarrow
therefore you didn't NEED to buy a ps4 to play it.
man,I forget how many times they sold tlou
freakin hell...
viscid cedar
wait what point are you making rn
south yarrow
tlou wasn't a ps4 syste seller it was on ps3.bloodborne was.
viscid cedar
I'm telling you that Bloodborne wasn't really a system seller on its own
south yarrow
viscid cedar
I never claimed that TLOU 1 was a PS4 game
south yarrow
nah but when I said bloodborne was a system seller, you said "it's not tlou"
hence the argument why tlou isn't a ps4 system seller when bloodborne came out
viscid cedar
"Its not the next TLOU"
I said it didn't really had the same effect TLOU did for PS3
south yarrow
I don't remember tlou selling ps3 consoles
it came pretty late in thye console's life too
viscid cedar
TLOU was massively successful man
south yarrow
oh yeah it was
viscid cedar
way better than Bloodborne
south yarrow
but at the time when the ps3 was already quite widespread
south yarrow
Ds3 is the one I played the most,and the first I really played (after playing a bit do demon's souls on ps3),so I'm prooly very biased toward it
heck I want to play it again now
vital schooner
if you talk about the worst boss in fromsoft history and your answer isnt lud and zallen then you are just wrong
south yarrow
I still haven't played through sekiro,and only once through ds2 (and even then I still need to to do the dlcs)
those 2 names don't rven ring a bell
vital schooner
dlc boss from ds2
willow valley
Lud and Zallen are literally the worst boss in the entirety of Soulsborne
vital schooner
i have beaten every boss fromsoft has released since original demons souls but those one broke me
south yarrow
vital schooner
i did not kill them
willow valley
You gotta haul ass through Horsefuck Valley for an eternity just to get to them, and then when you get to them it's just two of an already mid boss
south yarrow
just to get ds3 with smoother fps than on my old xbox one s
demon's souls has some seriously crazy shit too
I still havr to finish the remake,last time I played I was in the shrine of storms
managed to get the 2 reapers dead only to fail at the boss
vital schooner
demons souls original had what i thought was the perfect boss
south yarrow
and with how much of a fucking pain getting to the 2nd reaper padt the ghost thingies in that corridor sucks I kinda lost motivation
vital schooner
it was fast, it was intense, it felt fair, and its one of the few times where through and through the entire fight it felt amazing
and when i finished it i felt like a total bad ass
south yarrow
that sure as hell doesn't sound like that dragon god fight
cus fuck that thing.
and you're still not saying wich boss you're talking about
vital schooner
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-7g91MiAMtw look at this perfect specimen
vital schooner
no idea what hes like in the remake
only played the original
but man he was goated
south yarrow
I beat him in the original
I would not call him fast
he's part of the stuff I did finish in the original
vital schooner
my favourite types of fights though where hunters in bloodborne
south yarrow
the moment I understood his movement it necame trivial
he's not a bad boss but you c1n feel the clunk in that fight
also,the remake is just graphism.they didn't change luch if anything else,if anytjing at all
apart from replacing my favorite set for no fucking reasons.
vital schooner
use your imagination man, thats a mini balrog you are fighting
south yarrow
vital schooner
youre a god slayer
south yarrow

I use my imaginatipn when reading a book,not when something is right in front of me and trying to kill me
vital schooner
i saw a video where a guy was rating all the metroidvanias hes played
and he had
he had
omg i cant finish the sentence
he had the audacity to put fromsoft games on the list
i need someone else to be as upset as i am
south yarrow
...what
but they're not...was there even any 2d game in it ? cus metroidvania don't even count metroid prime,for exemple.or the other metroid game that doesn't exist and thus can't be named.
feels like ragebait type
viscid cedar
I'm gonna drop a hot take
ER having bosses that have shit ton of delayed attacks and feints that prey on your instincts is completely fine
south yarrow
ER having bosses that have shit ton of delayed attacks and feints that prey on y...
it's more than fine,it's welcome
especially for souls veteran who were used to the non delayed attacks
I got absolutely wrecked right from the begining in elden ring despite hundreds of hours in souls game
that made the game more than just another souls game,it refreshed the gameplay a lot
viscid cedar
I actually thought that this was bad boss design up until recently
It was just because it felt uncomfortable to fight them while they had more varied attack patterns that baits out early rolls
but I realized,
that the correct thing to do in previous Souls games was rarely the first option you pick
be it how to time your rolls in combat
to where to go next
south yarrow
also,it made the game harder for souls veteran...but for new players it wasn't as hard
viscid cedar
we forget that stuff as veterans but for new people there is always huge adapting period for all of this
and we can't really say those stuff are bad just because "they cause you trouble" for 30 minutes or something
viscid cedar
delayed attacks and feints are just a new way they mix up things
south yarrow
I kept laughing cus I was amazed that they did find new ways to mess with us and absolutely crush us despite all the training in previous game
the creativity and sadism is impressive
viscid cedar
and I think complaining about them is unironic skill issue and people who do are smooth brained
south yarrow
or jsut ranting their frustrations out once in a while
it helps
when the ringed city came out,me and my brother were sharing a room for a bit
viscid cedar
or jsut ranting their frustrations out once in a while
skill issue
south yarrow
he watched me fight the demon princes over and over for 6 hours
small rants and a bit of controller shaking rage
viscid cedar
one of the best duo bosses of all souls games
south yarrow
you should have seen his face trying not to laugh as I stubbornly kept going at it for hours until I beat the damn thing
with the occasonial tiny rants
viscid cedar
okay let me complain about DS2 now
south yarrow
just put more point in adaptability
viscid cedar
https://tenor.com/view/dark-souls-skill-issue-gif-23859816
I saw people watching clip compilations of bad hitboxes from DS2 and go to the comments and type "almost all of these clips are the player just getting rolllcaught" unironically
damn, almost like hitboxes that are much larger than they should be, combined with attacks that are active af makes it really hard to not get rollcaught
south yarrow
who whould've thought
but it balances out with the terrible ennemy AI that can be baited into dumb and weird shits
their paths are absolutely weird
bitter sundial
ER having bosses that have shit ton of delayed attacks and feints that prey on y...
I don't mind delayed attacks, I hate attack that look stupid and that don't obey the laws of physic
Fallingstar beasts animations are a good example, damn thing just... agitates limbs left and right and you literally can't tell what he's doing unless you already know his patterns
there's no wheight to it, same with GS Noble
and Margit too to some extent, but thankfully you can avoid most of his bs attacks by just running to his side lol
Meanwhile, bosses like Elemer, Lorietta, Godfrey and Radagon schmixe you a lot, but most of the time you can instinctively tell when they're gonna hit, and from where
viscid cedar
I remember Radagon having his unique rhythm compared to other bosses
and I think he didn't mix you that much iirc
while Godfrey had his second phase command grab thats delayed and deliberately animated so it would bait you into a roll
but not much more
south yarrow
there's no wheight to it, same with GS Noble
I mean,those things do have some gravity magic
bitter sundial
ngl I have a character specially to fight radagon when I feel like it, and he does a lot of timing mix-up... some times either two quick hammer swings, or one followed by a delayed stomp, or yellow dart-things, his tp can be followed up by immediate swing or a delayed one... But I never have to actively think about cuz the animations are just so fucking good lol
south yarrow
plus the whole evolution line of the astels are sorta lovecraftian weird,so it makes sense in a way
viscid cedar
ngl I have a character specially to fight radagon when I feel like it, and he do...
you mean you find them reactable?
bitter sundial
well yeah
viscid cedar
I should replay ER sometime
I practically skipped some bosses by the mimic
I should do them legit since I'm much more persevering than I was when I first played it
south yarrow
same,I'm not done with my second run
bitter sundial
meanwhile fallingstar beats has those weird "slow-mo" moves where he justs... Briefly stops his move, before suddenly hitting you at an unreactable speed, like his fucking tail swipe
fucking hate it
viscid cedar
I'm being a contrarian but I thought that was adaptable
bitter sundial
well I guess there's bound to be a lot of subjectivity
viscid cedar
south yarrow
they're a pain on first try,but other than that...
I've found even astel wasn't that much of a pain
viscid cedar
I did find the mountain one obnoxious in general tho
south yarrow
I sure spent who knows how long on malenia though
bitter sundial

totally.

what was the best class for DeS again
was it royalty?
I picked royalty the first time
willow valley
where's my copium...
Copium budget ran out
viscid cedar
Copium budget ran out
south yarrow
it's just taht the noble classe thingy came with the ring that gives you fp or whatever it's called in demon's souls back as time passes
wich is...you know.not exactly the most fair starting item.also trivialize a lot of the begining of the game.
south yarrow
yeah,especially since the first boss is much,much easier with spells as well
south yarrow
they shouldn't have passive bar recovery items
plus it's much harder to find if you don't get it that way.
viscid cedar
so if you no hit them in one run to a bonfire you would heal without estus
south yarrow
uh,ds1 had a health regen ring too though...? pretty sure the sun princess ring is in there as well.
on top of that evil eye ring
south yarrow
ah I got it wrong the sun princess ring is a miracle boost
I do remember ds3 having a small health regen ring...but very,very small.on top of the evil eye ring and the ring that gives health back in long combos
took 4 hits to activate I believe
something like that
it's...the right eye or left eye ring ? don't remember.one gives hp back with combos,the other reinforce combos
viscid cedar
I do remember ds3 having a small health regen ring...but very,very small.on top ...
thats fine
it doesn't give you something for free
you have to give out a ring slot and then you have to get good at combat to get benefit from it
south yarrow
I mean,it can also be used to cheese pvp if the one you fight don't know how to parry
offhand cestus is a necessity at all times in ds3
viscid cedar
I mean,it can also be used to cheese pvp if the one you fight don't know how to ...
if my opponent sucks its not a instance of my tool being cheap
south yarrow
I mean I did that sometimes when helping people with Midir when I swaped to shortword to change things up
...the panic rolls instead of getting parried were delicious.

I missed the part where that's my problem
bitter sundial
fr tho, there's so much chlore in that shit even a pile of shit probably wouldn't do anything
south yarrow
yeah,I just grew less and less comfortable around people so pools are a bit...eh.
bitter sundial
that's me with the gym, everyone waiting for you to finish your turn and watching wat you're doing is uh
shivers down the spine and all
bitter sundial
~~also I almost drowned like 3 times already thanks~~
damn dude
in that case yeah I understand disliking pools lol
south yarrow
damn dude<:MayNervous:917874242790502420>
swimming and the waves brings your further than you notice,was a kid
twice I manage to get back on my own somehow
the third time I had spent too much time away from stuff,muscle mass gone
luckily I went with someone who was a diver,so good swimmer and knew what to do
...took some time to notice what was happenning though
it took until I fully extended my arm giving them the middle finger cus they weren't getting it and letting my self sink a bit with that extended arm
it worked.
bitter sundial
"haha that kid is spilling water everywhere and screaming, he's having so much fun" "wait no he's actually drowning shit shit fuck fuck"
south yarrow
"haha that kid is spilling water everywhere and screaming, he's having so much f...
no the third time I was 16
wind + sound of wave + distance,they weren't hearing my voice calling for them
hence the fully extended arm sinking made him realise what was happenning and he dived in to get me
you'd be surprised how much you can keep swimming even dead tired even if you do'nt want to anymore,jsut to stay afloat
but my muscles were jsut not strong enough anymore to get me past the waves back to the beach
bitter sundial
damn, good thing that guy got the message at least
south yarrow
yeah,I did that cus I was pissed that a freakin diver was taking so long to notice
viscid cedar

why do these ironic memes make me laugh so much
also the post doesn't even mention demon's soul lmao, nobody remembers that game
viscid cedar
I think its a Sekiro propaganda meme
south yarrow
also the post doesn't even mention demon's soul lmao, nobody remembers that game...
it's...it's just cause tehre's a lof of painful stuff.and the remake is stuck in ps5 hell...and you know.not that many ps5 either
same for the ps3 version that jsut didn't sell that much
viscid cedar
DeS is a bit obnoxious in some aspects imo
like boss runs
I think one of the good streamlining decisions in ER was way shorter boss runs imo
south yarrow
it's jsut not as well balanced as the previous one
and there's a lot of events stuck in a really painful mechanic as well
bitter sundial
ER's balance is so bad it's almost comical
south yarrow
if you think pvp backstab were easy in darksouls1,do not try demon's souls
andw orld tencency is a fcuking pain
viscid cedar
ER is the easiest game in the series 95% of the time and the hardest in the remaining 5%
Malenia's area feels like a DLC area
bitter sundial
Yeah, everything post Morgott deals ludicrous amount of damage all of a sudden, and yet it fails to make the game any harder for OP builds, it just makes the game more frustrating for more basic builds
viscid cedar
damage is the biggest issue in general
you can raise your health to the soft cap and most enemies can still kill you in 3-4 hits
some one/two-touch you
bitter sundial
"yes, going from morgott's 10k hp to fire giant's 40k hp is a pefectly reasonnable difficulty spike"
south yarrow
look,if you want a balanced game,we need to be rid of leveling all together
jsut give us a max number of points to do whatever and bam
bitter sundial
but their previous games weren't as unbalanced
south yarrow
hence why souls pvp tourney have a limited lvl and weapons
south yarrow
but their previous games weren't as unbalanced
they weren't as big and not fully open
lvl building and open world are VASTLY different.
bitter sundial
but everything pre-mountaintop is fine, it's just that the spike is WAY too rough
south yarrow
it's simpler to balance stuff on a line than on a big open field
the git gud spike
I think that spike was in yrithill in ds3 for me
suddenlyI had to jsut fuckin leg it
bitter sundial
it doesn't even make sense, if they wanted to "lock" the player before mountaintop so that they can get strong enough, Morgott was the perfect candidate for that... Yet he's absolutely underpowered lol
the damn regular mobs after him are stronger
viscid cedar
Mountaintops were the place it felt dragged out for me tbh
bitter sundial
I guess they realized by that point most players would be using crutch things like ROB, Azur, poison breath and mimics, so they thought "Oh shit, we need to make the late waaay harder to compensate", but it's a goddamn failure when you see how these things still destroy the entire game
viscid cedar
and the emotions player supposed to feel in ||Melina's|| death feels very forced
viscid cedar
I guess they realized by that point most players would be using crutch things li...
I feel like they want to one-up the previous games
bitter sundial
granted I'm biased because I basically played that game's first run like this was DS4, with only Claymore R1 , so the spike was absolute nightmare
"weapon's art, whhat's that"
viscid cedar
and the emotions player supposed to feel in ||Melina's|| death feels very forced
even your character in the cutscenes go sad, this never happened in a Souls game and it feels just jarring, I don't think Souls games are supposed to make "sad" scenes like this, nor they are built for it
bitter sundial
and the emotions player supposed to feel in ||Melina's|| death feels very forced
||Yeah, just like Hoarah loux reveal... It comes out of nowhere and has absolutely zero impact lol. It's pretty clear after Morgott that a shitload of things were rewritten at the last moment, and things like Melina's arc being weirdly anticlimactic, Torrent being forgotten, Godfrey willing himself into existence out of nowhere, and Nepheli's quest being literally unfinished seem to point in that direction as well||
viscid cedar
do you know how a Souls game should make a sad scene?

even ds3's firekeeper was better.

am I the only person who feels like art of wars are there for mostly flavor and don't really add something concrete to the game?

they're jsut fun

and I don't remember ash of war being that broken other than that axe and ROB
I just used a claymore-like weapon for my second run
I only added an ash of war for better scaling
bitter sundial
there are broken ashes for every builds, almost to the point where it feels like "Pressing L2, the video game"
we hyperbolin' in this bitch
or somthng
the good part is that you can make a OP Claymore for every build, so that's always a plus
viscid cedar
I'm just glad that custom ash of wars aren't consumables
and you can just take them out
any other game would've game just made them consumables without thinking about if it makes a better experience
a lot of game mechanics are like that
like almost all inventory limitations

man I'm glad I finished ER mostly spoiler-free
south yarrow
I kept seeing people crying about the special chest.
so I went and check it.
yes,that very specific chest
bitter sundial
I somehow managed to finish ER without a single spoiler
(I took two months)
I was avoiding youtube like the plague

excuse me WHAT
you can use margit shackles to interact with the environment at a distance ????
viscid cedar
you can use margit shackles to interact with the environment at a distance ????
is it like removing illusory walls?
south yarrow
is it like removing illusory walls?
yeah it's why we keep using it outside
willow valley
So called free thinkers when there's a wall
viscid cedar
the worst is when they don't put the walls properly so they clip and make you think its a illusory wall
bitter sundial
Gurranq's place in Caelid :
"yes that's me"
"you'll think every wall is illusory"
"turns out the hidden path was beneath your feet"
"lmao casul"
"and the reward is a shitty dagger"

he stopped playing ER after dying to grafted scion

Good luck

(it's funny because he's shitting)
viscid cedar
what do you wanna see as DLC
willow valley
The place where Hoarah Loux was
viscid cedar
I feel like there is a lot of DLC material sprinkled in there
bitter sundial
can't wait for michael zaki to bamboozle us and pull new lore from his magical hat
viscid cedar
Hoarah Loux's homeland feel very backgroundy to me
willow valley
Hoarah Loux's homeland feel very backgroundy to me
Is it any less backgrounds than the Ringed City?
bitter sundial
willow valley
That literally didn't exist until the DLC
viscid cedar
yeah I was just gonna say
all the stuff about the Rot god and the Miquella's sleep god (I forgor the name) looks like stuff for future DLC
willow valley
Oh yeah, I remember seeing hopes for Miquella as DLC
viscid cedar
that all background info feels unexplored
bitter sundial
they have another potential waifu in the person of the gloam eyed queen, they'd be crazy not to capitalize on the simps
viscid cedar
yeah I completely forgot about that stuff too
would you prefer for a DLC to be like Luirnia sized open worlds or more like underground levels of the game
maybe one or two of them per DLC
bitter sundial
open world definitely
just, not mauntaintop 2.0 pls
and bosses like the few last ones
(we're still in christmas right)
willow valley
just, not mauntaintop 2.0 pls
No, we need Horsefuck valley 3.0 Harissa, you don't understand

I watched Sajam's stream highlights while playing DS2 the other day
its so satisfying to watch him trash the game
vital schooner
yo ive also been watching sajam youtube videos
for inspiration of sticking with a secondary fighting game

this sajam person seems very cool
viscid cedar
I love reaffirming my beliefs
viscid cedar
I never fought him RIP
bitter sundial
I never fought him RIP
it's kinda like going at a fireworks show
but blindfolded
he does cool shit but you ain't seeing any of it
vital schooner
anyone else fought fortissax and he kinda just
in DS3 pontiff has that double he spawns behind him. when i fought him i had him up against the wall and when he spawned his double it was inside the wall. literally free
viscid cedar
I like how they solved the camera issues with bosses at games like DS3 and Sekiro
and then they didn't
bitter sundial
Just cast magic at Fortissax and they'll die
no way star you
you just won elden ring
viscid cedar
how did the patch notes affect ROB since release btw
bitter sundial
in DS3 pontiff has that double he spawns behind him. when i fought him i had him...
damn you denied his stand😭 poor pontiff
bitter sundial
how did the patch notes affect ROB since release btw
idk
i don't play bitch weapons
willow valley
you just won elden ring
viscid cedar
it was its strongest at release right
willow valley
how did the patch notes affect ROB since release btw
Hell if I know
viscid cedar
I wonder how strong it is now
willow valley
I powerstanced katanas in my own run
viscid cedar
did you use mimic too
mostly no
I did the game solo
do you know who the OG summon against smaller/humanoid enemies is?
shield bros
viscid cedar
there is goblin like guys with shields who stunlock humanoid enemies
that you get from one of the underground cities
viscid cedar
we're gonna make this joke decades into the future
willow valley
Indeed
bitter sundial
as long as miyazaki put wolf humanoids with suspiciously large sword, yes

Have you tried out the Godslayer Great sword?
star

don't you
star
do't you dare tempt me
I keep doing new playthroughd
willow valley
I must spread the good word of the Godslayer Great Sword
viscid cedar
I actually did a Guts' sword playthrough my first time in a souls game that's not Bloodborne
willow valley
Do it Harissa
viscid cedar
what's the GGS' gimmick?
viscid cedar
is it a greatsword or ultra greatsword
willow valley
Does a lot of damage
viscid cedar
both is fine by me
viscid cedar
is it a faith weapon?
willow valley
No, it's a Quality Weapon with some Faith sprinkled on
viscid cedar
my second character could use that fr fr
willow valley
Gotta swing big sword somehow
viscid cedar
str fth is my go-to second runs
first is quality
because it has the best chance of having access to the best selection of weapons
early str faith feels like watered down str to me tho
bitter sundial
first is quality
you did the same mistake as me
quality is literally teh worst build in this game
last third of the game was hell, 300 dmg per R1 
bitter sundial
Gotta swing big sword somehow
strength becomes immensely fun once you play around the posture system
before that tho it's painful
viscid cedar
you did the same mistake as me
is this true for launch or close to launch or still true current patch
willow valley
Still true
ER has a similar design philosophy to DS2 where it want you to use a build than can do both melee and some form of ranged combat
vital schooner
any of you guys ever watched any challenge runs

I've completed one

willow valley

something you get from killing the mini godslayer bro in Caelid
viscid cedar
willow valley
Yeah, just rush the Divine Tower of Caelid
viscid cedar
its still gonna take a while to to be able to use that thing tho

Uuh
Kill Godrick or Radahn early, and dupe their Remembrances in the mosaleums for Runes

take the rosus axe
I lost it where it said intelligence
bitter sundial
no
nono
nonononono
it doesn't
it says "spooky bois"
it actually plays like the ungaest of bunga builds
get close to enemy, then smack them in the head
Press L2 if you want to win
south yarrow
bitter sundial
for real this time : the rosus axe is actually on steroid, in the late game it deals around 2K damage with a single L2
You can just facetank all the endgame bosses
bitter sundial
how about you try ||DS3 instead ||?

ER peepee poopoo game
I finally decided to have some magic on the side and now I can't find a catalyst lmao
south yarrow
you can loot it from teh "nobles" casting magic from the begining in limgrave,for exemple
or go to liurna where there's that sorcerer in the church thingy
you can buy one off him I think
...actually can't you get one from selen ? not sure been a while
viscid cedar
nah you can't
viscid cedar
I'm gonna have magic on the side
for buffs and help me take some guys out before I engage the enemy
viscid cedar
I'm not gonna use azure comet that shit looks lame af
bitter sundial
...welp now I want to play elden ring
viscid cedar
I never did a pure Magic run in any souls game
bitter sundial
damn beat me to it lmao
viscid cedar
how would you rank the strength of magic in every souls game
I heard it got weaker in every installment until ER?
Idk honestly
south yarrow
dunno,but elden ring has a crazy buttload of variety for it,wich is nice
it's very powerful in demon's souls too,I guess
I don't know,I never felt it was bad in dark souls games either
always loved playing with miracles most of the time
viscid cedar
like I remember hearing that its was weak in DS3
south yarrow
pretty sure ds2 has a nice amount of spells as well
bitter sundial
wouldn't know, i have never used magic once in my whol in my whole life
south yarrow
ds3 I really loved going with miracles or pryomancies,magic felt underwhelming there
