Bought an xbox one controller because I wanted to go wireless. Been using the same 360 controller since 06 figured time for an upgrade. Brand new out of box the left stick had drift on it causing me to always run forward. Gonna exchange and try a different one but if this poo poo happens again just gonna stick with old faithful I guess.

I'm taking my sweet drat time with this game and the catacombs are by far the worst. I just get scared by all the spooky skeletons :saddowns:

If the second one has it then I'll figure out what the gently caress this means and how to do it but I got a gamestop on the way home and the controller in my car so I'm going to do that first.

It also wouldn't accept quick inputs. For example I like to run in super fast circles when I'm trying to get a host's attention and the controller just couldn't handle it.

you can also clip the camera into the chest and if you see nasty teeth and poo poo in there its a mimic!

I swear to god there's like a 5:1 ratio on mimics vs actually chests in this loving game. I found 3 of them so far in the Dungeon and I haven't even cleared the Capital yet :argh:

dungeon is really the only area that is prime mimic territory, most other chests are what theyre advertised to be. also theres no trap chests so thats nice

Xbox one controller update. Replaced it, got a cooler color (its like bronze or something) and it works flawlessly. Just got a defective one first time. Feels p good and now my desk is wire free minus easily hideable poo poo like keyboard and mouse cable (can't be wireless because I need zero latency for el1t3 g4m3zing).

Finish 3, then get SotFS and play it. It won't suffer from having played 3 first

The graphics quality of SoTFS makes Bloodborne almost unplayable. How does DS3's graphics compare to SoTFS?

Dark Souls 2 looked like garbage. All muddy textures and either shapeless terrain or blocky indoor geometry. Very few environments were at all memorable—the DLC areas, sure, but in the base game, you have what? Heide's Tower of Flame and Drangleic Castle? Both Bloodborne and DS3 completely outclass it in terms of either detail or plain beauty.

SoTFS looks and runs a hell of a lot better than DS2. Bloodborne might look great and interesting but the framerate is horrible.

Anyways, worked my way up to Drangleic Castle, was able to upgrade my sunset staff a few times and dark orb is now hitting like a truck. Have a Silverblack Spear that's maxed out and also hits pretty hard, just need to find a darkstone so I can dark infuse it.

I've only ever played the SotFS version of DS2, so that's what I meant.

Weird, I think it looks really good. Main thing I like is it runs completely smooth, was really weird trying out Bloodborne and having such a lovely framerate.

sotfs doesnt look like garbage, but it isnt jaw dropping. what it did have, however, was a solid 60fps on ultra with a 970. ds3 certainly looks nicer, but i also have noticed a lot of frame rate issues, especially in the later areas

Use your lock on button duder. You're going to have an easier time and you'll save weapon durability by not hitting the environment so much.

im on the road of sacrifices for my ng+ run, and was clearing out the swamp of those gnarly crabs. was in the middle of fighting one of the big bastards when a watchdog of farrom invaded me. little did she know, im the loving soul of cinder, so loving rip in poo poo nerd



her corpse wasnt even done disappearing before i got another watchdog invading me, so i walked back to the bonfire and waited. this dork was pretty cautious and approached me with his shield up. too bad it only took 2 strikes before i staggered him, and i have enough stamina to swing 5 times. pinned him against a tree and disemboweled his bitchmade self. then i took a dook on his body



the time stamps on those pics are 2:30 minutes apart :twisted:
