I've heard good things about a game called system shock 2. Maybe something like that.

I'd like a Dark Souls in an alien ship that was heavily inspired by Giger. Everything else I think would fit would just kind of be Doom, though.

I'd considered the viability of "Bloodborne 2 is in the Wild West" but mostly because I want a weaponized cactus and left-hand lasso build. But yeah, not enough decrepit stuff unless they include Native American ruins which would probably get racist and dumb. Also I want people with Southwestern American accents talking to you just like normal Souls characters, wry ironic chuckling included. Edit: I guess it could be a mishmash of America, so you travel for 5 minutes (or take some kind of spooky train) and your suddenly in Lovecraft County, New England. Or you could go to the Deep South for obligatory swamp levels. Liquid Dinosaur fucked around with this message at 20:54 on May 3, 2017 |

Levelling up will be done at the checkpoints, but instead of bonfires or lanterns the checkpoints will be holo-emitters projecting a motherly AI woman with occluded eyes. Perfect solution.

Pontiff Sulyvahn is the greatest boss fight I've ever played. It's like he was hand-tailored yo gently caress me over - every habit and natural insinct I had, like attacking from the side and rolling sideways when an opponent's arm is raised, was brutally punished. I'd never had enough patience to play any bosses more than 12 or so times without summons until that guy, because I couldnt rationalize a way to claim the fight was bs because in its own way it's 100% fair. Awesome fight.

Awesome fight. Pontiff Sulyvahn is one of my favorite fights ever and this is why I can't get mad at the lore spergs who try to make Sulyvahn into Velka 2.0   Using the delay between his shadow's and his own attacks to set up a parry is too great.

how can sulyvahn be velka 2.0 when sulyvahn has actually appeared onscreen and directly did things also I'm kinda bummed that my last fight with sulyvahn had his shadow glitch into the wall, causing him to stop doing anything and just let me wail on him til he was dead

Augus posted:how can sulyvahn be velka 2.0 when sulyvahn has actually appeared onscreen and directly did things That's a good point  A lot of people were unironically arguing that he was the ultimate puppetmaster and orchestrated literally everything in DS3 and by extension, the series as a whole. It went kinda far. Ironically, they stopped caring as much about him when DLC1 was announced because DLC1 was going to be all about Velka! Did you know we're gonna fight Allfather Lloyd!? Look at those Velka Trees! Oh my god is that Velka herself in the chair!! What about that white haired girl? Probably Velka or Velka's daughter! It's just like the Painted World of Velka from Dark Souls 1! Nevermind that DLC1 actually put out a lore bomb about Sulyvahn, the Velka obsession was already at full throttle.

I always thought it was weird how Sulyvahn had the little mini second phase that lasts for about 3 seconds before you've done enough damage to trigger his third phase. Why not just jump right to him summoning his Stand?

Awesome fight. The duration of his windup animations were what got me the most. Perfectly fair, but he'll start an animation that looks like a normal sword swing but hold it for just long enough that you instinctively dodge and then get hit when he actually swings.

DS3 does this so much and I love it. It's the perfect way to make things harder for people who have muscle memory from the previous games  I think one of the most hilarious applications is one of the Harald Legion knights moves from the second DLC; they'll wind up like a regular attack and then.... slam their weapon into into the ground, THEN follow it up with the actual swing. It still trips me up every time they do it. Cavelcade posted:What if you are Velka?

Gael seems entirely designed around loving with muscle memory. In phase 1 he attacks rapidly like most of the enemies in DS3 and you have to roll through his swings right away. Then in phase 2 he drops that completely. His attacks become extremely slow. Way slower than what you expect from DS3. They are also designed to punish imperfect rolls. On top of this, Gael can combo his attacks into different moves. So if you try and act based on memory you can get hosed over by him doing a different laggy move... if you're using a slow weapon. If you use a weapon that attacks fast you can just react to his delayed combos and staggered swings. Gael became way easier for my Pyro when I tried using the demon scar in phase 2 rather than the onyx blade. I wasn't able to reliable stagger him but could respond to his delayed attacks and wasn't getting punished by my own greedy swings.
