The average is 5.5? I thought it was 4. This is very unsettling.
I know I'm making GBS threads up the DS3 thread with Remaster stuff, kinda treating it as the catchall soulsborne thread... Do we have one of those?

Anyway I won't inundate you with a bunch of gameplay clips unless its welcome but I had to share this at least, unlikely to recreate it any time soon-

If you're stuck on the first bit, I recommend bravely running past the Followers at the start to the far side of the map (ie follow the left cliff wall from the bonfire). When the snow collapses, ignore all wolves and tree ladies, stick to the wall and run, don't walk, down the ravine to the rope bridge bonfire. The snowfield and all the stupid wolves are easier when you're backtracking.

I wonder if all the crabs are the same species and have just proliferated through the worlds due to their proximity, or whether they're different species, but due to the time spans involved in the game have coincidentally evolved into crabs.

You can totally play modded ds3 multiplayer, just need a banned account. Some mods disable multiplayer by default, but you can switch it back on. Hell Champions Ashes is specifically designed to be a multiplayer mod

Just make sure if you're playing with a friend to have the same mods installed and use password summoning

Sometimes you should alt f4 / kill yourself if invaded because you might encounter some weird hacker invading shenanagins

Bonus hilarity can happen if someone who is just regularly banned (not running mods) invades you, because they will not be able to see your mods but the effects of your mods still work on them lol.

When the mob and the press and the whole world tell you to move, your job is to plant yourself like a tree beside the river of truth, and tell the whole world Diabeetus.
I don't know if this would be the place for it, but VaatiVidya held a contest to have fans come up with their own Bloodborne 2 designs, and my God they are so incredible. He'll be uploading the video to Youtube later, but he had a stream of it on his Twitch, which I'm sure you can look at the VOD on there, if you like BB at all, there are some incredibly talented people that put these concepts together.

Yeah I kinda figured that would be a way around it, but having my account softlocked just to play modded would be kind of a pain if I ever wanted to play unmodded again.

Maybe someday a co-op utility mod will get made by some genius

Goddamn. Imagine what the community would do if there was real mod support (although that is a big ask) Or poo poo, imagine what people could do if dark souls was open-sourced.

Ah gently caress. I was powering through the early game, came back to Yoel, and he's dead. I looked it up and apparently I have to finish going hollow and get Yuria before the Abyss Watchers. Should I start my cleric over or should I be fine? I was going for a dark cleric (currently making a run for Dhorys' Gnawing in Irithyll)

Might want to restart. She sells a pretty good spell book. You can do without it but it’s right in your build’s wheelhouse.

OpenMW is an allmost fully functional reimplementation of Morrowind and very actively developed. Expect to have OpenSouls ready and running by the mid 2030s!

check "Authorize Library Sharing on this Computer" box, then check the account name of your secondary account. if you only play cinders on the second account you won't get softbanned on your primary account.

I snatched it up on a recent sale and I get the feeling a lot of people I encountered had done the same. It seemed to be leveling off the other night, but not before I got a bunch of clips.

Friendship ended with AR, now CRIT is my best friend. :colbert:

To go quickly is foolish. To go slowly is prudent. Not to go; that is wisdom.
I'm going to give another go at this. I've always gravitated towards wielding the biggest metal slab I could find, so I want some variety. Any suggestions for a decent weapon, that comes early and has a weird moveset? Last attempt petered out, but I was enjoying using the Crow Quills, for example.

Aug 18, 2013

for variety's sake it's good to use more than one weapon on the same character. easiest to do with weapons that use different upgrade materials so they don't cannibalize each other's materials.

so for instance if you're going dex you could use a unique fast weapon like Bloodlust, and also a different(ideally twinkling/scale) weapon that also scales with dex like hollowslayer.
