They sell anime like that over here for like $50 per DVD because they know only a relatively small number of enthusiasts have any interest in it at all. edit: and is shown on TV around midnight, surely that gives you a hint that it's's not for very many people? I mean, I also went through a phase where I thought everyone here just watched anime/played anime games all the time, but now I know it's just a very very few things that aren't nerd only.

Bloodborne is so drat good. I've only made it to the Blood-Starved Beast, but goddamn it's so good! I really hope I can beat this game.

I'm the weirdo that likes Dark Souls 2 more than Bloodborne, DS1, and Demon Souls 1. I've got more hours put into it than all those other From games combined. Something about it just clicked with me. I only played the first DLC on PS3, but I'm waiting for Scholar to go on sale before I double dip on the PS4. But if you're jonesing for more Souls action after BB, it's your best (only?) bet on the PS4.

There's quite a few goons still playing. There's a thread for it, too, but I can't find it at the moment. Which trophies are confusing you?

Yeah a bunch of us still play. What don't you understand about the trophies? I think they are all just for playing the maps/modes and there are 2 for finishing a twelve week period as each faction. Been getting back into Batman (also my first Arkham game so I'm not weighing it against the other ones) since I finished TW3 and it's really awesome, but for some reason I can't pinpoint it's not fully sucking me in. I enjoy playing it for 30-45 minutes at a time but always lose interest after that. I don't even know why. It plays great and looks gorgeous. Holy poo poo that photo mode tho. I have never seen a photo mode in a game that looks so good. My snapshots look more like high quality bullshots than actual screenshots and just spinning around the world and looking at all the little details and raindrops is awesome.

I completely beat Arkham Knight and have no desire to play it again, because it doesn't really do anything all that special. I feel after experiencing it, that there is no reason not to just play Arkham City. The gameplay barely feels a step up from Arkham city.

Whoever said that Vanishing of Ethan Carter theme was good wasn't lying. I hate the noises and I don't know why they made any icon bright orange, but the actual background is really neat. In the time it took me to watch a few episodes of Veep it went from bright and sunshiny to raining. I guess that's not a very good endorsement but 99% of the themes out there are out and out trash.

As long as we're talking about themes I'll also say the Journey one is solid. Nice pretty desertscape with really pretty, yet not overpowering, music and the little chirps that the characters make as sound effects.

Pumped to stop playing my space shootman game to try the newest walking simulator in three minutes. I also switched to the Rapture theme after people in this thread talked about it and yeah, it's good.

I've been watching someone play it for an hour. So far I'm still not into the story... the game has great visuals, soundtrack and the VA is not terrible. It is pretty much a walking simulator, you go from place to place getting bits and pieces of the story.
