Yeah, the driving seems better, the cover system works a little better, but then someone connected to my game for a little bit and poo poo went crazy until they disconnected, probably because I wasn't able to talk to them.

Was weird because it was pretty decent up until that point.

It oddly is a fairly relaxing game. The world looks amazing and there's chill ambient music off and on.

There's still some minor quirks that I hope get ironed out before launch but I've got a good feeling it'll be an alright game. And I'm a huge sucker for co-op PvE.

Plus with their being no PvP, there's no chance of things getting nerfed to placate them while making GBS threads on the PvE folks like what happened to The Division over and over again :haw:

wilin out lands feels like a coop centric 3rd person farcry 4 and thats alright by me. couldnt see myself playing through it solo, its pretty loving boring that way. but loving around with some buds it definitely shines

Ds3 is my favorite. They learned from their mistakes in 2 and made an amazing game that feels a lot more like 1 but way better.

idk i still love 2 the most

im way more into the PVE and not much into PVP these days though

i just got to the point in the game where im backtracking for stuff and filling out a greatsword build. i kinda hate how nerfed sorcery feels in ds3 tbh

Same. I love the majula music and just chilling looking at the sunset on the ocean. I really dig the ds2 vibe.

Also dual wield power stance maces is the most fun.

im not a fan of how they handled the sotfs poo poo in ds2, but i generally like the mechanics in 2 the most out of the series. not having functioning poise in ds3 is loving garbage, and its definitely my biggest complaint with that game

Poise works in DS3, it just does something completely different than the last two games. It gives you some interrupt resistance, while doing certain attacks, with certain very heavy weapons.

(it's basically useless)

Loving the heck out of this DS2 run. I forgot how much slower and methodical this game feels.

I'm slowly starting to really really like ds2. Seems so much bigger and power stance is the tits. There just seems like there is a lot more to the game.

hyper armor ≠ poise. youre right tho, there is poise in ds3, but only for the enemies. its loving bullshit that even the weakest attack staggers you unless youre in a very specific frame invulnerability during attack startup



n4b, my bitch about sotfs is that from decided to release a remaster of ds2 a year later. sure they offered it for cheaper if you had ds2 already, but it should have been a free update. also the lighting model still isnt that great, especially compared to bb or ds3

makes sense

i had original for pc and bought sotfs for ps4 so i paid full for both like an idiot bitch

i think i ended up paying 30 bucks for the upgrade and it came with all the dlc which i had none of, so it wasnt a ripoff. but i still didnt like how they handled it. wouldve been more justified if they jammed it into the bb engine

Same, but I picked it up on the PS4 as SotFS after playing 1 years before, so I feel like I didn't get a lot of the bullshit a lot of people dealt with at launch

This beta is a lot better than the last one. Graphics performance is better for one. On a 1080 the last beta chugged randomly but this time it's smooth as all hell with everything maxed. Also playing on the highest difficulty is the way to go. The second area they added for this one gives high hopes for the rest of the game. Anti air, alert sirens, power generators you can disable, well placed enemies and patrol routes, poo poo is really well done. The new area gives a much more mgsv feel.

This really does remind me of MGSV without the batshit crazy bits and (to me) really tedious grinding of materials to upgrade your equipment. Resources are still there but it's not like you need a million units of fuel for some middle of the road gear. I love sneaking around bases and outposts, tagging everyone until all the red blobs on the map are gone.

Then I turn on thermal vision and use my three dot laser pistol cause holy poo poo it looks exactly like the predator's laser :unsmigghh:

Yeah, though I still need to get a PS4. So many games I want on it are either ones I've played on the PC, or are coming to the PC. Right now it'd just be that one and then some poo poo that isn't even out yet :(
