i beat the first boss in bloodborne last night this is my second attempt at playing a fromsoft game, the first being dark souls 1 on PC (with gamepad). in ds1 i also beat the first boss, but hit a wall pretty quickly after that. i feel like i'm getting the hang of bloodborne a little bit better, but i did kind of cheese the cleric beast with like 4 molotovs to get it down. i assume that won't be a viable strat going forward i'll admit that i kinda forgot that you can just farm souls/consumables so after i got the boss down i just went and farmed the scourge beasts on the bridge to get some armor and levels and upgrade my weapon a couple times. i'm using hunter's axe and so far i like it pretty well, especially the twohand form. i haven't gotten the hang of the gun, like, at all, yet. i don't know if i "get" it yet because everyone who plays fromsoft games talks about how eventually they just "get" it and it starts clicking and from there it's just a matter of learning and practicing all the little tricks and rhythms and stuff. but if i do "get" it eventually then i'll try to beat bloodborne and if i still wanna play fromsoft games maybe i'll try elden ring. i almost just bought elden ring to try it but its $70 and i had bloodborne free from ps+ so, there ya go.

got moonlighter on switch for sale and I wasn't impressed at first but once you can get a different weapon it feels much better. p much anything other than the sword&shield or great sword. I think the spear is best for the invincibility frames on the charge attack. it's basically recettear but not quite as cutesy anime themed and more updated

When I was visiting my sister in December, I was playing Pokémon Go waiting for her to finish work. I joined a raid and one of the randos sent me a friend request when it was over, so I accepted. That was the day before I was leaving back home. So the first couple of days of exchanging gifts were postcards from pokestops in and around the area. Perfectly normal. Then when I got back I started sending postcards from Vancouver, Seattle, and around there, then a few from England. I like to think some Japanese kid who maybe thinks they're living in the rear end end of nowhere, suddenly starts getting postcards from around the world from some rando they friended at the train station, and they think it's pretty neato, and makes them curious about the wider world and maybe they go travel one day because of it. |

I've been watching a bunch of Real Civil Engineer on YouTube playing cities skylines 2 and he makes it look pretty fun, and I kind of want to play it, but I'm worried it's going to be not as fun as he makes it look. |

i've gotta say that regarding the persona 3 reload version of the iwatodai dorm theme as i'm coming close to the time where i won't be hearing it anymore i think i prefer it over the original version. the drums are way better and while i still love the original sampled vocals and the way they're pitched down i love the lotus juice vocals and the whole "but we gon' chill today / let me rock the world tomorrow" just fits the whole tone perfectly now if only i could put the loving songs i paid for on my phone

Still proud of myself for defeating Ludwig, Living Failures, and Maria all on the first try. I had seen videos of them before but only briefly and didn't know their moves. Too bad I got my rear end kicked by Orphan of Kos |

Maria is maybe the platonic ideal of a Soulsborne boss fight. There are no cheap moves, the phases follow on from each other narratively and ludically, and the music is triumphant but also a bit sad. |

I tried out the demo of Bulwark on PS5. Neat sort of city building, resource fetching game. Really cool graphics, interesting concept, but completely hamstrung by terrible camera control. Like, it's really bad. Maybe they fix it on the full production game, because it feels like a game that should be good. As it is though it's frustrating enough to make me not want to play it. I don't know if it's a result of being an indie game where the devs are the playtesters or something, so they don't see the problem, but how do you gently caress up an overhead camera system so badly?

orphan of kos, or some say kosm, is impossible and no amount of video evidence will ever convince me otherwise (deep state deepfakes????) seriously by the time I was at the end of the dlc I hadn’t died to a boss in ages, even in the chalice dungeons, and was feeling pretty invincible. then orphan happened. e: and then last week I was bored and started streaming a new character and my girlfriends tuned in to watch and got to see me get absolutely clowned by both Gascione and Cleric Beast, wtf |

Just hopping in to say that helldivers 2 is really, really quite good. You and 3 dudes get dropped on a planet to gently caress up either bugs or terminators, your weapon choices largely don't matter (just play what's fun!), and you will inevitably get blown up a bunch by your teammates but that is okay, as long as you serve the federation and complete the mission nothing else matters. You have like 20 respawns between your team, but they have to call it in with a button combo and pray they don't die while they are doing it. *someone* will scream what the gently caress is that, call in an airstrike on it, and then it will charge you killing you all with the airstrike. You can get revenge with the respawn pod, it gets dropped from space and you can steer it directly into the large thing that murdered you, or alternatively your buddy The gameplay loop is wonderful, you are just trying to survive with ya Bois and take those dirty roaches down with you. A+, it is the most BYOB of shooters. |

I'm watching the trailers now and I think that the best thing about far future combat is that capes are back in style. It's the only thing that the 2021 Dune does better than the 1984 Dune. |
