Are the puzzles similar in style to GoL at least? I've got a lot riding on Osiris, as it's basically how I'm gonna justify my PS4 purchase to my wife. It better deliver dammit!!

it's a fun co-op game and I haven't played GoL, but the puzzles scale in difficulty based on how many people are playing, and there are a lot of challenges and stuff to do in each level, so it's definitely worth it. I got it with PS+, but I wouldn't have been disappointed if I'd have paid for it.

I really want the soundtrack CD, but can't justify owning the rest. At least regular pre-orders get the steelbook case.

Is there a consensus on the best bluetooth headset? Been using an old one with aux cable but its died, so I want to move to wireless. The official ones seem pretty steep for a headset... are they worth it? I'm not a super hardcore gamer so I don't really need perfect quality.

the blood vial grind is highly overstated imo. i rarely had to think about it.

i guess it might suck more if you hit brick walls at every boss but honestly most of the required bosses in the base game are pretty easy, relatively.

That was annoying at launch but once they upped the caps it basically became something you had to try to run out of. Estus Flasks are better as a concept but you shouldn't need to grind ten billion levels or whatever.

The platinum headset is new and expensive. The next level down, the gold, is lighter on the price and usually goes on sale and it's pretty good.

They can jump in whenever. They take control of your second character, and you can just assign them other characters to control on the fly.

no more tears

My Bloodborne experience through like fifty hours on two characters has been clumsy camera, massive hit boxes on enemy weapons, and having to literally count off the timing to parry stuff as simple as gascoigne, which makes me wonder if I need to reinstall BB on my ps4 or something. Meanwhile Demons-DKS3 I end up running around in pants punching things to death and not getting hit by things that visibly missed me.
basically, everyone treats it like the second coming so mine must just be broken

I'll be pretty tired and knowing I have a lot of work to do in the morning though. Also two days after I'm going off to Beijing.

Speaking of which I assume I can't access the forums from over there but dunno how to check for sure. I guess I'll find out when I go.

Gascoigne is so easy to parry that my father, who is rapidly aging and not comfortable with those sorts of games, can beat him. Your game may be legitimately glitched or something if you're having that much trouble.

I think I died at least twenty times to Gascoigne? I mean, I must have because I felt pretty good about having mastered getting across the bridge after having to do it so often

Only emojis can express my pure, simple stupidity.

Sorry bit late to headset chat, phone posting. Headsets really come down to how much you wanna spend. $50-$300

There's hella options coming out here real soon. I'm kind of a dork with headsets cause I gotta have my wireless :retrogames:

Astro releasing their new version of their A50s $300 (keeping the same name)

Turtle Beach is releasing a bunch of different variations of the "Stealth" (I know comedy option)

PS platinum headset

Steelseries h has been out for a bit. $300 comes with two batteries so you can hot swap while one charges

I went ahead and got the LS30 that's stereo ($150) to try out. They also have an LS20 that's cheaper. LS is a new headset line that just premiered at E3 called lucidsound. They make good stuff. They're supposed to be releasing the LS40 that's gonna have the virtual surround and all that jazz. So I might pick that up. It's supposed to come out this month or next but I don't see any updated infozTheir whole deal is making a header that isn't gaudy as gently caress.

Curious to see how the platinum one is though

Don't buy Turtle Beach. Their build quality is nonexistent this generation. I had two stealth 500xp or whatever they are called break in the exact same spot simply putting them on my head.

I got the golds in place but am thinking of returning them now as the connection drops out every 5 minutes and just going back to a wired headset

Different strokes for different folks. I got bored of all the Souls games and Bloodborne after getting moderately through them. No, your game is not broken. It is ok to not be interested.

I used a Stealth 400 for a few years without incident. I liked it because it's the cheapest one that had an optical input. I just sold it a while ago after buying some decent wired headphones...but sometimes I think about going back to wireless.

I plugged wired headphones into the controller, that's basically wireless unless you're doing something crazy while playing PS4 games

Uhh did the update allow you to play straight off the disc like a 360? I put in Bioshock collection and it's letting me play right away and making disc read noises that I've never heard before.

Or am I about to be ps4-less until the pro comes out

IDK about Bioshock, but some games let you play at least a part of the game while it installs.
