Playing Horizon so clos after Monster Hunter World and God of War might have been a mistake.... I'm level 24 with blue medium armor but level 18 enemies still kill me in two-thee hits, ranged or melee. That, and the fact that the dodge is on circle and doesn't seem to have many or any invincibility frames really through me off. Any tips for raising defense/health?

I knew I was excited about the Dark Souls remaster, but now I'm playing it and I cannot tell you how much I am enjoying "that vibe" again.

Oh I’m certainly not stating it’s as challenging or mystifying as it was. I just enjoy being back in that world. I’m just here for the scenery, or whatever...

When robots wind up before hitting you, take it more seriously and roll out of the way when they lunge instead of continuing to attack them. Roll has invincibility, but the window is short. Whenever possible early on, be a pussy and hide on a tall cliff or in some far away bushes and take potshots. Use elemental armor and resistance potions liberally when fighting robots with elemental attacks. Drink that poo poo like it’s fireball and you just turned 21 When you get good at figuring out you can only hit a robot once (or occasionally twice) before they melee you back and you have to dodge, you get a good dance rhythm and eventually you’ll be able to waltz between three enemies at a time If you hit a robot and position yourself behind them it buys you another second where they have to turn around to attack you. With practice you can do the drunken boxing thing with them where they keep swinging at you and missing because you’re too close to them but not in the right direction for them to hit

THE MOVIE IS "THE ARRIVAL" AND IT DOESN'T EVEN HAVE TIME TRAVEL, IT'S JUST AN INTERESTING TWIST You might also enjoy "Story of your life and others" the original short tales collection it was based on.

Aloy's roll in Horizon is insanely good. Here's a video of me taking down a big scary demonic Thunderjaw that I think showcases what you can do with it pretty well. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1U5B_CVPJmU Basically never not be rolling.

Soooo excited. I probably should have gone digital but I love having all my Souls games physical (the PS3 copy I have also isn’t mine 👀) It was also a fair bit cheaper on Amazon

I found the fancy special edition of Demon's Souls for basically nothing at GameStop a year or two ago. It comes with a strategy guide where 90% of the text is lifted (with permission) from the Demon's Souls WikiDot.

I ordered a Japanese copy and probably won't see it for another two weeks. I hope it at least has English language option. I didn't think that through.

I imported the Prepare to Die edition for PS3 from the UK and got like 3 areas in before I let a friend borrow my PS3 to play TLoU. He's had that poo poo for a year and still hasn't played TLoU; meanwhile DS1 is the only bloodsouls game I've never played through. So if anyone wants to jam my psn = snackytongs

Samurai Sanders posted:1’s gameplay is really dated, I’ve played every part of 2 twice through and 3 is 3 so I don’t really want that. I just replayed 1 and it’s really not that bad. With some inventory management QoL updates its perfectly fine.

She kicks rear end at Tropico 5 but anything with more complicated controls is pretty frustrating to watch. She loved the Detroit demo too.

Renoistic posted:Playing Horizon so clos after Monster Hunter World and God of War might have been a mistake.... If you're level 24 I imagine you have enough inventory to sell to afford some purple armour. If there are certain enemies that give you trouble you can buy armour that will help immensely with reducing damage (and drink the appropriate potion as was mentioned). There's armour that protects against melee attacks and that includes machines, not just humans swinging at you. For selling inventory remember that crafting resources take up multiple stacks. You could be sitting on five stacks of Blaze and you probably don't need more than two or three at a time so sell the rest. Sell anything that says it's only for selling. Sell machine hearts if you have more than one or two of each. To improve the armour you need good modifications and that's just going to be luck of the draw unfortunately. But you can save up points to get the Tinker skill which will mean you can swap mods in and out of armour whenever you want, like just before an encounter.

Real hurthling! posted:Hey since im playing a version of ds where gravelords arent broken for the 1st time what do they do? The Gravelord Covenant allows a player to "infect" nearby worlds with extra hard phantoms - but this only affects players in NG+ and up. Any player can see the Gravelord sign and invade the world of the Gravelord Servant - if they defeat them, all infected players get a message and the phantoms are gone. If the phantoms defeat an infected player the Covenant member gets a covenant item. Dark Souls Remastered thread here: https://forums.somethingawful.com/showthread.php?threadid=3855732 it comes up a few times and I can't wait to try out the Remaster tomorrow night!

Don't Ignore That Dog could totally be an 8-bit game à la Tapper where you have to frantically manage chores house-sitting and while making sure you work in pets and rubs for their dog.

I figure this will be free on PS Plus in 2-3 years so I might check it out then, but it looks like just a slightly interactive version of that show Humans so eh. And I haven't even bothered adding Beyond: Two Souls to my library even though it's free right now. I won't deny that this style of game has its merits, but Until Dawn has already done it better than Quantic Dream after several attempts.
