NGDBSS posted:Have you read China Mieville's The Scar? It doesn't feature quite the meeting you're referring to (fish + giant sea monster), but there are still a few scenes of stark astonishment when some of the characters encounter an avanc. When it first arrives, one man is daunted by the beat of "a heart the size of a cathedral", given that the beast is on the order of miles long. And later when some scientists descend to check up on it, they initially are confused by their depth readings contrasting with their ocean-floor surroundings until they realize that they're instead just above a creature so large that it supports its own ecosystem. drat, that sounds pretty cool.

It reminds me of Valkyria Chronicles and how it had those really intricately detailed and stylized well modeled character bodies/armaments with goofy anime bobbleheads plopped right on top like they don't look incredibly out of place.

How does the chloranthy ring stack with other stamina buffs? Does wearing the chloranthy ring in combination with green blossom and/or the grass crest shield? Because I'm not seeing it and I'm wondering if I miss something.

I seem to remember talking about those animations with someone back when DS3 first came out. If I recall, I believe the consensus me and the other person had was that they don't matter, because the animation system is like DS1, so there is a reasonable shot that it won't show up on the other end (what's the point of a fancy gesture if no one else can see it?). Were this Superior Game Dark Souls II, making the game play the other animation would show on the other end most of the time. But my memory may be playing tricks on me. Either way we never bothered checking. Tallgeese fucked around with this message at 23:36 on Apr 19, 2017 |

The Skeleton King posted:To me dark souls lore is just the player showing up very late to a party. poo poo went downhill centuries ago and when you arrive everyone is dead or crazy. Economy is in the shitter, undead are working without pay, towns falling into sinkholes, you got rats in people's attics and nobody's home to fix it. The dead can't afford graves, living in the streets instead, killing people and taking their souls. They got demons running the asylum, and people are climbing around on the rafters at the cathedrals. At least lothric has the high wall

Uncle w Benefits posted:Have a friend lmao no, friendship is for nerds Are spellcaster runs Fun & Cool now with the changes, though? My problem with spellcasting in the Souls games has always been that it's cumbersome to use and often doesn't offer much benefit (aka. spells deals less than a couple of (easier, safer) R1's, buffed weapon on spellcaster deals the same damage as non-buffed weapon on STR/DEX user). I guess it might still be fun for the variety?

if you think dark souls upgrades are complicated you should check demons souls. Your Computer posted:Maybe I shouldn't complain, I don't think I've ever done a run with anything other than +15 in DS1 and even in DS2 I only infused on a couple of runs (I feel like most infusions were just damage nerfs in that game?) wikis usually have boss weaknesses.

Iretep posted:if you think dark souls upgrades are complicated you should check demons souls. I've never had the chance to play it myself, but I know all about the upgrade system (and what a system it is) since I actually got interested in Dark Souls after watching a Let's Play of Demon's Souls. I wanted to play it really badly, so I remember being super excited when Dark Souls released on PC I still have pictures from my first ever run of Dark Souls. Started as a Pyromancer and used a Falchion that I eventually upgraded to Quelaag's Furysword. I finished the game at level 69, but other than having a decent amount of dex my stats were all over the place. I definitely had no idea how soft Humanity worked. Scarecrow fashion! I switched out some stuff, but I used the Balder chestpiece and the Mask of the Sealer throughout the entire game. Switched to and used the Bloodshield for the rest of the game once I got it. What can I say, I always cared more about how my character looked than my stats!

ds1's system was practically a godsend compared to demons souls. gotta love arbitrary upgrade levels being required to upgrade specific weapons to boss weapons and the like, with you being mostly screwed if you accidentally level past those thresholds that said it was a fun time

Is the casting speed difference between 40 and 50 dex noticeable at all?

I only started having 30 some int when I got to Lorthic castle anyway. Casting stat scaling is really top heavy.

CURSE-ROTTED GREATWOOD Ever since its establishment, all manner of curses have managed to seep into the Undead Settlement. The worst of them were sealed away inside a spirit tree, but eventually the curses took their toll.

Wear huge armor! Have a fuckton of hp! Smash things! In the original dark souls, I enjoyed rolling with the black iron armor, the BKGA, and artorius's greatshield. Needless to say, Ledo's fuckoff hammer is my favorite weapon of the new DLC.
