Woolie lied about what Ninja Slayer is. It's a Japanese novel series originally published on Twitter that's supposedly translated from two American authors that may or may not actually exist named Bradley Bond and Philip Morzez.

Possibly a stupid question, but has Woolie or Pat said if they're going to do any of the other Souls games after 2?

My dream would be for Demon's Souls to be Woolie on stick with Liam on pure commentary; since Woolie got gud, Liam's trolling won't be a real hindrance to progress, and he loves Demon's. Then have Dark Souls 1 be Matt on stick with Woolie as the spirit guide, so the student can become the master while we get a double-blind experience.

I don't think Matt would willingly subject himself to a full playthrough of a Souls game. It would also take longer to finish than CT, DS2 and the Nuzlocke run combined.

That's why it's a dream, because dreams aren't real.

Liam/Woolie should still be the team for whatever next Souls playthrough they do, if any. I could honestly see them ending it with DSII, I'm sure it's exhausting for them, and long series always seem to end up being divisive.

I'm sure whatever Souls game they play next will be much quicker, because a majority of the playthrough has been Woolie learning the mechanics and applying them to new situations. Not to mention they are more than willing to skip optional bosses if it's too tough for them and DS1 is shorter main-story wise than DS2.

Matt, has your opinion on the souls games changed? because you sounded like you absolutely HATED it when you made the initial dark souls 2 vid a while ago, so I'm just wondering what your level of enthusiasm is going to be when you dive into Bloodborne.

I was really frustrated with Liam's advice (and my inability to play) when playing DSII. We played the game for two hours, and I just felt something was off. Then a week after the video went up, I talked on the podcast how I selected a two handed fighting style with no shield, (that Liam talked me out of using in the video) and I did so much better.

I think the world, tone and lore of Souls games is really awesome. Just...even though I did better when I started up DSII a second time, I don't think the slow pacing and punishing difficulty is for me. Much more interested in Bloodborne.

Also, when I said that Pat and I would be playing it, I meant a full LP.

Really enjoying the podcast and the "Blitzcast" format. Would like to see...err, listen to more. It forced you guys to get to the point more and the episode didn't drag a bit like some of the 3+ hour ones do. R.I.P. Pat's PS4. That has to loving suuuuuuuuck.

I can sympathize with that. I played some DS1 on recommendation and for some reason I just can't get into it. Usually that kind of thing is right up my alley but all the while i'm like "Yep... i'd kinda rather be playing Dragon's Dogma or Monster Hunter or a Platinum game...". That being said Bloodborne looks loving amazing. I don't know if it's the setting or the speed or what but that's the one game on the PS4 that's not coming anywhere else i'm like "Oooooh, yes."


SFV would have pushed me over the edge but it's getting a PC release with PS4 crossplay which is both crazy and great and saves me some money for now.

I feel some of the vitriol the game is getting is undeserved. Mostly I mean that these sections aren't as hard as they look and are being complicated by the hoarding mentality with regards to ammo.

So they had trouble with the section with the moving platform? I would agree it's bad, but only because of how weirdly easy it is.

Most puzzles in EW were 'too easy' in the sense that if you think like the crazy person who made the game it's super easy.

Also while the slow platform was one of the worst by far, there actually is a worse bit coming.

So...enjoy?

Judging by the podcast they may or may not of already gotten to it.

When I played I just hunkered down behind the cover and played shooting gallery, so I had no idea the shutter enemy dispenser was so stupidly done. Pat constantly getting blasted and getting angry was hilarious.

Since the game is SO LONG I'm not 100% if the trap-festival they alluded to is what I'm thinking of or if there's yet another bit coming up where the game just dumps a giant tub of bullshit over your head while screaming 'isn't this a challenge, aren't you having fun?!'

They keep mentioning playing Dark Souls 1 every few videos, but I don't know if they're planning to make it another LP or not. It would at least fit in better with Woolie's "paralyzed by the fear of dying" playstyle. :v:

No one mentioned Liam tried to argue that as long as Hardline's story is good, the rest doesn't matter.

A battlefield mod for all intents and purposes, all about the story.

The very first game he brings up to compare is VLR and 999.

Goddamnit, Liam.
