Finally got the platinum in Dark Souls.

After playing through all the games, i can confidently say that DS1 has the worst inventory management in the series.

Quick Bloodborne note: Darkbeast Paarl is a masterclass in how not to do an enemy hitbox goddamn. Thankfully the game gives you a tanky NPC summon to help you out a lot.

JC3's PC port god mediocre reviews as well which sucks. I watched a friend play it on his PC and it ran like a dream. *puts on JC3-themed sherrif hat* guessI'm the thread's local JC3 apologist. Pleased to meet you. Some of the things I did to make the game really fun is I would take out entire bases while trying to not touch the ground at all. poo poo owned.

It only got a little tedious when you got to the last 1 or 2 things needed to be destroyed to capture the point but they significantly improved that problem from JC2 since in JC3 you at least knew exactly what to look for. Hoping JC4 adds like a pointed or some sort of more subtle clue as to the last few things you need to destroy to capture the base. Didn't even occur to me my whole time playing it that people had a bunch of problems with it cause I was having such a blast. But again, I am a WHOOOOOOORE for the wing suit+parachute combo. Staying in the air as long as possible was so drat fun.

Tbh 4k is interesting (I mean 2x the resolution, can't beat that if it's legit and not cheating fuckery) and given how much DigitalFoundry talks about it, I really wish to see what this HDR is all about on true hardware........

you're not gonna get better than 30 in most games and you're just gonna have to accept that. 4k isn't some gimmick tho and not wanting better resolution doesn't make any sense regardless of any other concerns

I don't think higher resolution = more better forever, any more than I think that about frame rate.

I will avoid plugging my TV into the internet for as long as I can. All it should do is take a video and put it on the screen. If I want smartness it can be in the external boxes I plug in.

4k isn't more better forever though. Its observable from a normal sitting distance.

Pc crazy people wanting 120 instead of 60 is overkill. 4k ain't yet.

Maybe if you have a giant TV. It’s a minor difference on my 42 inch. There are many other things I want more.

Edit: ironically it would mean more on my PC screen since I sit so much closer to it.

Tbh this is a big reason I've transitioned out of PC gaming as I've aged the last few years and pretty much exclusively game on my PS4. I love kickin it on the couch by myself or with my lady or a friend throwin back drinks and fuckin around on SA and twitter on my phone instead of hunched over in my spare bedroom trying to stay focused enough on the game to not masturbate. Especially hard to keep that temptation down if I'm playing MGSV, Overwatch or Minecraft where everyone is so sexy how am I supposed to not jack off.
