i dont get that impression from it at all. to me it looks like a big gross useless lump of meat, which it basically is. the cinematic quite literally looks like a miscarriage

I agree that it looks like a horrible mess, but when the moon shits out a Lovecraftian monster you think its going to be a little harder to beat. I at least I did.

That's what the moon presence is, I think. Like what the one reborn was supposed to look like if they didn't leave the oven on too long or something.

Summoning the elder gods and their servants is hard.

That's why I usually ignore Arcane and just hit everything until it dies.

somehow someone got up to the top of the room in central pthemeru and left messages. it's one of those pieces with the gnarled trees on the side. it's in the main one for the story chalices, if you want to go look.

anyone know how the gently caress that happens? lol

I've never played a souls game before and this is my fav PS4 game. I've beaten it 4 times, got all the trophies but I still turn the game on every couple of days to help noobs with bosses.

The other day I helped some chump kill Gehrman and me and the other cooperator dude surrounded the beckoner and we both did the exact same victory pose on the exact same frame and it was epic as hell,.. Never hit the "save video "button so fast in my life :hellyeah:

i duno, I've never liked the olde plate armor art style. I am really into Bloodborne's aesthetic, especially poo poo like cainhurst + every time I saw someone playing a souls game they're just lurching around slowly with a shield and looking at loading screens and it looks boring as gently caress. not sure if I'm going to try dark souls 3 tbh. Would love a bloodborne 2 but that'll prob never happen :<

You can play it without a shield too. There's about as many loading screens as Bloodborne probably

Its fair to say that Bloodborne has a different aesthetic than the rest, and I agree, but they all have rock solid gameplay. DS3 looks pretty Bloodborne influenced too, you should give it a try.

I'm in the same boat as you, but today I started playing SotFS cause I was able to pick it up for cheap a little while back. Definitely similar but just different enough to screw me up a little, like someone was talking about earlier about not walking while healing, no quickstep, etc. So it took me longer than I wanted to get to the first boss, but then he was moving like he was underwater and was no problem.

It was awesome when I climbed up on some roof and some Gundam Knight flew in out of nowhere and murdered me though.
