PS4 thread help! I played the first 20 minutes of Resident Evil: Biohazard and just killed my wife and I am worried this game might be too scary.

Do you ever at any point get a weapon or something that really boosts your confidence or am I supposed to just be in pants-pooping terror the entire time?

Hopefully it's a remake of the Gameboy 007 game. Actually, just port it since it's already A-tier.

My friend talks about that game. Because he had it as a kid and learned to play b
Baccarat from that game.

Personally I hope that it is a port of this Bond game.

The first few hours you're underpowered and scared, but then you start collecting the typical RE arsenal. Like by the end you're gonna have a shotgun, flamethrower, grenade launcher, etc.

Truth be told I've already had a couple chances to buy a PS5 if I really wanted one, meanwhile entire RTX 3080 listings disappear in between the Add to Cart and Checkout pages.

I almost feel bad for saying it because I know it has to suck if you can't get a PS5 right now, but the RTX 3080 launch was sooooo much worse. No preorders offered anywhere, so I got up 3 hours early on launch day to watch "available soon" buttons instantly flip to "out of stock" across a half dozen different retailers, and spent the following 3 weeks running to a computer every time I got a discord push notification. Absolute misery

It's pretty freaky and scary for the first ~third or so. Once it becomes less inspired by horror movies (minor spoilers Texas Chainsaw Massacre, the Fly) it definitely becomes more classic RE.

Booted up Dark Souls and in the first few minutes a Balder Side Sword dropped. (That was one that someone mentioned on stream) not enough dex to use it though.

I think the missleboat was the first time I said to myself "this thing is a bit overpowered"....in a single player game....way before the internet.... (at least getting to and flying the b-wing in x-wing was loving hard and I think I never got past the third mission after you moved it into the squadron)

I’d like to tell you all that I now possess a PS5 so my time here in this thread is coming to and end.


However I am moving back to my own flat on Saturday having been dispossessed for three weeks and I don’t really want to use my PS5 or play Demon’s Souls for the first time on an old barely functioning and barley 1080p monitor balancing on a suitcase so it’s staying in its delivery packaging until I’m back.

Godspeed all.

I replayed DS1 last weekend and decided to try out the Balder Side Sword and it took me 2.5 hours to farm!!! You should get enough dex to use it IMO.

I have been opening shortcuts left right and centre!

Bell gargoyles done. Wandering around the undead burg with poison dogs but now I have three ways to get down there.
Got my dex up to use the balder sword (now a +5 balder sword thanks to lots of titanite dropping) but it seems I am too used to my axe which does more damage. Unless I am using the balder sword wrong?

Wearing thief gear from the undead burg and see some white fog in the distance! :3:

Balder sword scales more with dex than strength and from your first video i think you're adding more to strength than dex. Whatever you think is fun. The axe is pretty darn solid for at least the first half of the game, though I usually use reinforced club when I do slvl 1 runs.

Capra demon is one of the more bullshit bosses in the game with the size of the arena and the dogs, you can get stunlocked very easily. There are stairs to the back left that you might find useful.

You’re pretty far in. Depends if you have the DLC or not (and you should get it if not, it’s fantastic). Have you been to Cainhurst? If not look that bit up

VideoGames posted:

I get these posts now! :D

Do not worry you are quite a way in and have done a couple of toughies! (The bell-ringing witches were the third boss I faced after Father Gasqweegs). I promise there are a couple of really special moments still to come!

i did wind up buying the DLC but still haven't touched that part of the game yet. seeing as i'm quite often left scratching my head on where to go next i suppose the DLC can be a good distraction, but i'm also itching to be finished with the story already. relieved to know there isn't too much left bc the whole song and dance of new area -> turn every corner with extreme caution -> survive until the end -> find the shortcut -> die at the boss -> frustratingly rush through everything to kill boss is getting a little old.

also, since at one point i was feverishly mad at the game, i've resolved to killing every NPC i come across regardless of how it impacts the "story" that i have been paying basically zero attention to anyway. old guy sitting in a chair pointing at the moon? dead. spider guy with a face in a library? dead.

i really wish this game/series pandered a little bit more to the lazy shits like me but i also definitely appreciate that it's vague and cryptic for those who get a real payoff out of digging in deeper than surface level.

Squadrons continues to be rad. There is this continuous worrying thing where when I finish a mission it hangs on the loading screen, and when I restart from the last checkpoint my controls are locked out and so i have to force quit and restart the application.

Luckily the checkpoint saves have held up so far because if I had to replay a whole mission I would probably just give up lol

The other day I posted about a PSP game that I had bought the downloaded version of but now it’s delisted listed from the store and even isn’t in my download list anymore, and someone recommended I look on the PS3’s list to see if it was there, but no dice. It’s just straight up gone from everything.

I don’t know how many total games this has happened to. I don’t suppose there’s a list anywhere?

IGN got to play Cyberpunk 2077 for 16 hours, and they thought it was extremely impressive. The only caveat is that the build that was being run was an older version that had a lot of bugs.
