an important thing to remember about iframes and related stuff is that when you do a charge attack, you get super armour after the flash of light, but you dont get any while charging or if you let go of the attack early

Something that struck me after going back to bloodborne today after six straight weeks MGS5 is how many games have loose controls or playing just feels kind of sloppy. How is it that "playing the game" isn't the first or most important part of development for so many games. Witcher 3 is a great example, they put alot into the story and the world was really cool but the control was sloppy as gently caress and trying to play it after bloodborne or metal gear feels like something that isn't finished.

When I stopped playing Bloodborne I fought enemies with insane precision, just like Neo at the end of The Matrix series. Now once again I find myself to be more like Neo at the beginning of The Matrix . I hope the DLC can make me once again take the red pill, become a powerful fighter, and see sights that make me say "Woah."

The souls series has ruined a lot of games for me because of this exactly.

i went from bloodborne to witcher 3, and had to stop playing for that reason exactly. i might get back into it after dragon's dogma though, since they patched in new controls.

Witcher 3 was the exception for me because the story was so good. I never care about video game characters/story so that was new to me. The combat was bad. Souls games definitely killed elder scrolls for me though - those games seem unredeemable.

Imagining the game you get with an elder scrolls map but dark souls combat makes playing the actual elder scrolls garbage we get seem really bad.

Some stuff from the ds3 stress test: You can charge heavy attacks like in bloodborne Two estus flasks, one for health and the other refills your "sword art" / mana meter. Haven't seen any spells yet but it seems implied that magic will use the demons souls mana style instead of having a limited number of casts Enemies that are kicked/corpses kicked off after backstabbing have full collision. There was one part where he kicked a mob and it flew backwards and bowled over all the monsters behind it Some of the more dangerous monsters in early gameplay are clearly reskinned versions of bloodborne mobs. Those ft executioner guys for instance appear in several places with the exact same moveset but they're wearing fat fluted armor This has been said already but the world looks incredible & definitely has more of the dark souls 1 feeling of distance & isolation. Item called "ember" that seems to function like a humanity. It isn't explained but when its used it says "CINDER RESTORED" & your character glows with these cracking flames & your health goes up about 50% & sprinting no longer consumes stamina. "KNIGHT" style enemies won't let you circle strafe around them. They'll swing their shields off to the side and even back behind them to smack you and keep you in front of them. There are little stones you can offer flames to that give you bits of lore and backstory like the little glowy spots in bloodborne The first area is seriously massive and it encourages exploration, there's tons of little hidden pathways & rooftops and you can go pretty much anywhere you can see. It feels like a much bigger & fancier version of 1-1 but nonlinear. The world is interconnected & shortcuts are used to link everything Throwing knives feel like pebbles in the sense that difficult enemies have a lot of overlapping patrols & you need to pull them apart to keep from getting overwhelmed. He got a shitload of knives but they don't do any real damage Red eye knights are back weapon resins are plentiful but the effect doesn't last very long, maybe 15-20 seconds Edit music is incredible.

He's playing a caster now, spells definitely use mana. Some spells can be rapid fired where the animation will change on subsequent casts & they'll do less damage than the initial cast but will come out really fast Spells can be charged with the sword art for catalysts The game does not warn you when you've been invaded Edit never mind apparently that's a known bug in the test

I read somewhere that there are parrying shields and then there's other shields where instead of parrying with l2 they have a special sword arts type attack or move set.
