The only time is Isaac should speak is in DS 2 during the eye needle scene, and he should just be whispering gently caress over and over again.

veni veni veni posted:I don't want a Soulslike Armored Core, but I want a post Souls Armored core, if that makes any sense. I want to see what AC looks like from the developer that has swept multiple game awards in recent years and I'm curious as to what that entails. AC is niche as gently caress at this point and frankly sort of dated, so it seems totally reasonable to want to see how it relates to the series that millions of people are obssesed with vs the one that 25 people care about. From the IGN interview it sounds like that's what we're getting, and I'm really curious to see how it shakes out. It won't be recognizable as a souls game, but it's gonna have a similar interest in kick rear end boss fights, have mechanics that reward player aggression in the face of overwhelming might, and provide more melee options than past AC games did. Also the trailer shows what looks like one mech stun-cancelling another's close range attack and following up with a critical hit, I'll choose to read into that. I'm really excited to see Fromsoft get back to basics and apply what they've learned to a totally different kind of game. Maybe they stumble, doubt it but at a minimum it's going to be a very interesting game.

NGL I got less actual gaming done during the quarantine period because it was hard to differentiate what was "work" time versus game time and I probably overcorrected by not gaming (while also not being particularly productive about doing my own work).

Oh man, what the hell were From thinking with the Rennala fight? A really long run (by elden standards), followed by an unskippable and unfun first phase which lacks any challenge at all once you work out what to do. The second phase could be a fun fight, but I'm so grumpy from the busy work that it saps all the fun out of it. It's actually the first time where I've just said 'oh gently caress this' out loud and turned the console off. I've looked up some strategies and will try to take her down again tomorrow, but man, given how streamlined the boss experience is in elden ring, this one sticks out like a sore thumb as like a cliché of why people don't like souls bosses.

I haven't played since launch but I remember that there was a chance that you couldn't even get to the second phase because of some bug.

Almost as if different people find different things difficult. I did Renalla in only a couple of attempts, but I can see how that first phase is kind of a chore once you know the gimmick if you have to go back and do it again and again.

Does anyone know of the Playstation stats are calculated retroactively if you enable it during a year? It was disabled due to GDPR by default over here, and it somehow tells me I played 480% more than last year on PS5, which can't be right as Metroid Dread and Xenoblade 3 took up a lot of my gaming hours on Switch also, so I haven't even switched platforms more than last year. I assume the numbers are only for the PS4 and 5 games I actually played on the PS5 after enabling it, ignoring anything on PS4 are PS5 before?

I had a habit of taking on ER bosses slightly underleveled, so I did that first Rennala phase a whole bunch. Got gud, it always took under a minute, just a little warmup for phase 2, no big deal. Also I don't remember having much trouble with her boss run. I vaguely recall there being a shortcut that trivializes it?

There's a 'shortcut' through the rear end in a top hat mages but it's easier just to go up the big ball staircase and neither of them is particularly short.

I don't remember Rennala being very hard but that's because if you're playing Elden Ring right you arrive at all the major story bosses horribly overleveled

Now that you mention it I think I went through the mages. Run across the courtyard, up the stairs and through the mages, along a hallway/bridge situation to get to the area where the Carian knight used to be, hook a left and go up the elevator and you're at the door. Send the elevator back down before you head in if you're nice with it. Just long enough to meditate on my failures. If the mages dinged me that was my Nintendo-style reminder to take a break, and you can always trade them for a few extra seconds of running up a big empty staircase. Maybe I'm callused from DeS boss runs but I didn't blink at this.

Man I didn't realize how little I use my PS5 since I finally got a decent PC...the only games I played this year were Elden Ring and Bloodborne. And even then, I got Elden Ring before the PC and then ended up getting it on PC later.

Yeah, the boss run is about a minute long, and is non lethal if you take the marginally longer route. By the standards of other souls games it's not too bad, I just think I'm spoilt. The shortcut barely even qualifies to be called one. It's like maybe 5 seconds quicker, and involves running past two dudes with homing magic. I have no doubts that I'll be able to best her fairly easy, but it's just that feeling of going through all the rigmarole of the run, then the first phase, and then being literally one-shot by that opening beam thing which stun locks you. I know, I know, git gud.

Been trying to play the new Final Fantasy Crisis Core and the game is bugging out so hard that it's impossible to follow the story. Every single cutscene has the dialogue text stay on screen for only a split second before skipping to the next line but the each voiced line keeps playing out in full like a Rick and Morty skit of people yelling over each other. It was funny at first but even restarting the game doesn't seem to fix it. Everything was fine up until I got deployed to Wutai and suddenly I have the shortest and loudest cutscenes ever.

  Not bad. A little surprised not to see RDR2 in the top 5, but I guess I did split that between the end of last year and January.

It's been fine for me and I'm at Wutai (although Zack's voice actor is really hit or miss). Did you try reinstalling it yet? That's probably the next step I figure.

Did you turn on auto progress through dialogue in the options? Maybe that’s fucky. I also just got to wutai and have no weird sound problems.

I was surprised by the Forspoken demo. I like the combat and movement quite a bit. It has a great weight to it. Feels powerful (haptics are awesome), looks awesome. Kind of made me think Infamous but weird fantasy and that’s very much my sort of thing. The menus and missions and whatever just sort of blurred me into a brain fog and didn’t catch me at all. I just had fun running all over fighting things. I’m definitely more interested in it post demo but I’m going to have to see some reviews that check the marks I’m wondering about. I think I’ll have to come back to the demo a few times to feel out the rest of the game flow.

Feeling like I did well this year!  Six platinum trophies in 2022 for Bloodborne, Demon’s Souls (PS5), Dark Souls, Dark Souls 2, Dark Souls 3 and Dragon Quest XI. Also finished Spider-Man and I’m on pace to finish rear end Creed Valhalla before the end of 2022.

Haven't had an crazy issue like this since spider-man and being unable to finish the miles mission where you go to the feast center because I would always fall through the road when crossing the street into a watery void below. That one also persisted between restarts.
