you can take a cage into the abyss underneath the castle after you pull the lever and you will see her down there completely catatonic. it's pretty horrific

This game has ruined other games for me, anytime I try and play something else I play for a bit and realize it's not as good as Bloodborne then just start playing Bloodborne instead.

I don't have a wiiu which sucks cause I hear it's real good. And yeah, Witcher 3 is good it's the first witcher game I've ever tried and its definitely got me hyped for what CDProject Red will do with Cyberpunk 2077 when it releases eventually but Bloodborne blows it away no question and it offends me on a personal level that witcher 3 was getting reviews as good as BB on release

Is this your first souls game? Because playing demons woke me up fully, as a gamer, and now I only play Nintendo, souls and metal gear games, and am a much happier person.

playing the first part of witcher 3, like the prospect of collecting a bunch of junk so i could craft other junk and having to dial through 45 minutes of dialog before i even hit something with a sword in its awful combat system, it was depressing and terrible

I've played all of them in order prior to this one, but it still continues to confound me how miyazaki manages to outdo himself every single time, like it's hard fathom how the game can be so good

I think before a game is released, the work is basically done from a directorial standpoint like 3 or 4 months before hand, and there's probably assets from dark souls 1/2 development leftover that he could start from, and then the game comes out late 2016. I could see it

My most striking gaming memory is getting a PS3 just to play demons souls and spending I think 6 hours on the first level and never beating it because it was so foreign to me
