Getting better at deflecting, getting closer with Lady Butterfly. Can consistently get to the second phase. My main issue right now is that whenever she jumps up I lose my lock-on so it’s hard to shuriken properly (but when it does work it’s a big help)

She's optional, but if you beat LB you'll be way way way more prepared for the rest of the game. She's a decent skill check and does a lot to make you more dextrous and aware of how to quickly rely on multiple combat options.

Agreed. My first time through I wasn't upgraded at all and was still playing it like Bloodborne, doing hit and runs, being miserable but feeling like I could do it.

Then I got to the second phase which I am 100% confident is designed to stop that play dead in its tracks with the butterflies that track you because they absolutely are timed to hit you exactly as you try to dodge and then hit her when she's open after an attack like you would in BB. Unless you played it that way you'd never notice, but it's so devious!

That was the night I played it for 3 hours straight (I NEVER play games for that long at once, except Destiny raids) and finally got Good Enough to start clicking with the game.

Even if it was critically acclaimed and not the broken awful mess it apparently is, I don’t think I could bring myself to play it because the art style is just trash, combined with what I assume is a bad dystopian setting, like bioshock lite but even less fun to play somehow

Vaati has recorded himself pulling down the pants of every boss in Sekiro's new gauntlet feature so if you are interested in learning really simple breakdowns of basic approaches for every fight that he makes look completely effortless and easy, here you go.

I am rushing through a NG+ right now because I think this might not be a bad Platinum but I forgot to kill Demon of Hatred before I picked my first ending :negative:

I posted this dude beating gyoubou with deflects only earlier, but he’s pretty good at the game, and shows off little stylish things you can do with prosthetics like forcing him to mist raven with the shuriken and just using the umbrella for a split second for the fire attack. But he’s got all of the new update bosses on his channel https://m.youtube.com/watch?feature=youtu.be&v=la8MWKc7daA

Yeah I feel u, I think more people would maybe appreciate this one even if they didn’t like Automata, because if you’re like Fridge Corn, who seemed to enjoy the ending and cool little things that Nier does with sudden changes of camera angles/styles/genre and other little clever things, Nier: Replicant does that stuff throughout the entire game which Automata weirdly lacks. Or imo I think it’s sort of strange now that I’ve played most of the original that Automata didn’t even really attempt to do that outside of the bullet hell hacking stuff.

Is it true that the Dual Sense works on the PS3 but not the PS4? That’s bonkers. I was thinking about picking one of them up even though there’s no sign of when I’ll will get a PS5, but I guess not.

The PS3 doesn't give a poo poo about controller authing and a lot of old USB pads will work on it just fine. The PS4 on the other hand does, which is why stuff like the Mayflash F300 has a passthrough for a DS4 to be used as auth.

Tv chat for ps5, how prevelant do you guys think that HDMI 2.1 and VRR will make a difference?

Like here in Aus the difference is around $6-700 between a decent midrange 4k tv and the Sony x90 and other brands equivalents.

For me they'll be something I'll be looking for next time I buy a tv. VRR is a game changer on PC, your monitor can lock to refresh rates that aren't just 60hz so you won't get screen-tearing at most FPS ranging from 40+.
2.1 allows 4K 120fps but I'd imagine the amount of games on the PS5 running at that spec will be minimal for a long long time and short of maybe something like Doom 2, I don't imagine many games will use it.

Personally I wouldn't want to be buying a new tv without vrr support, but I see that it's still not a standard feature on many mid rangish tvs. I'm probably waiting till next year.

I'm thinking VRR could be a big deal. I expect it'll make most games' quality mode perform way better, since the new consoles likely won't hit a stable 60FPS at 4K with all bells and whistles. I'm not sure about the other HDMI 2.1 features mattering much for PS5, I doubt many games will take advantage of 8K or 120FPS.

I bought the PS4 version of SMT Nocturne the other day but I regret it. It’s a really minimal upgrade, with janky movement and camera the same as on the PS2, and also not very good performance despite looking really simple. Also the cutscenes aren’t cleaned up at all and still 4:3, with that dumb rear end fuzzy thing on the edges like they do for vertical cell phone videos when they show them on the news.

What a coincidence, I started playing this yesterday and man it's fantastic. I'm playing as a skeleton and there's so much fun roleplaying you can do with that! I just finished Fort Joy and I really feel like I'm hitting my stride.
