It was low key one of the 10 best games in 2017, and that’s really saying something

Even with the massive loading times at the end, Prey was still a blast.

Welp got tipsy at lunch and bought SotC and Bloodbourne on the train home - thanks PS app! I’ve never played either or any DS games please validate my poor impulse control. (Not necessary they were both reasonably priced in Canuckistan dollars). I’m excited for both - SotC in particular as I remember the reception it got originally but I didn’t have a PS at the time.

In No Particular Order: Resident Evil 7 Nioh Horizon: Zero Dawn TLoZ: Breath of the Wild Neir: Automata Prey The Surge Hellblade: Senua’s Sacrifice Cuphead Observer Here’s every game released in 2017 if you wanna debate it, but for real I had more fun with Prey than I did with any of the big cinematic masterpieces of last year, it was like someone understood what was good about Bioshock and gave you way more of that. It’s by no means perfect (low enemy variety hurts it and the ending is rushed) but I’d rather enjoy a game for 20 hours and then get a weak ending than slog through a game for 20 hours to get an amazing ending (N:A does have an amazing ending sequence, but the gameplay isn’t good enough that I’d have finished it without everyone on Earth insisting it’s worth it) Bust Rodd fucked around with this message at 00:57 on Feb 17, 2018 |

a bad ending is part of the package with system/bioshock. obviously they were just committed to delivering the full experience

Prey was pretty cool but I think I'd enjoy it a million times more on PC. The load times are ridiculous in the later game and fighting the mimics with a controller is not fun at all.

Play SOTC immediately, it's a one and done SP campaign with an emotional punch that will probably suffer if you immediately get into time attack lizard hunting, etc. Bloodborne is an RPG-length campaign that encourages you to keep trying different stuff and will take you far longer to see most of.

The detail in this SOTC remake is kinda mind blowing. Like there's just an incredible amount of attention paid to every little piece of scenery. So good.

Prey loving owns, shame we'll probably never see the DLC they were supposedly working on for it. Unless they pull a death of the outsider and go "Surprise! Here's a standalone expansion releasing in 2 months!"

All signs point to the main guy behind Prey having left the studio for personal reasons and Bethesda sent it out to die and the PS4 port was so bad that there was basically no chance of the game being perceived as a success Which is a shame because that game is such a riot when it’s firing on all cylinders

I loved prey but having a PS4 version that ran like crap and then making a demo only for that version was an incredibly dumb recipe to create bad word of mouth for the few people who had even heard of it due to bethesda's garbo marketing

Nostalgia4Dogges posted:I bought BB on the sale and DS1 is coming to the Switch. I've never played any Souls-esque game ever in any capacity do not take the threaded cane the first time. I know you think its whip mode will be like Castlevania and it will be cool. But do not do it. Actually i haven’t finished it yet and I am avoiding most out of game advice and hints but this is my advice to you.

the threaded cane is a pretty good weapon but yea it's definitely the least beginner friendly of the three

I used the Threaded Cane my first time through Bloodborne and loved it. Also there is totally a part where it is like Castlevania and cool, you might as well put on Bloody Tears

Bloodborne is a lot more streamlined than Dark Souls. Just don't put points in bloodtinge or arcane. Don't be afraid to run past enemies if you're sick of fighting them. Explore if you get stuck and you'll find something cool and gain a few levels at least.

"What is a man? A miserable pile of secrets" is the underlying theme of Bloodborne

It becomes a good weapon around +6 with a lot of skill but at the very start of the game it is definitely the worst option

It’s mostly irrelevant because even if you take the cane you can get the spear in like 3 minutes and it’s functionally identical to the cleaver. The axe is fine but so boring

The advice I remember finding the most useful when just starting Bloodborne was to put points in Vitality (up to 30 at first) and to a lesser extent Endurance whenever you're not sure what to put points into, and pump whatever you need in Strength and Dexterity (and maybe even Bloodtinge and Arcane) to equip weapons that you find and want to use. You'll end up with a quality build that's all over the place, but it gives the most varied playthrough if you only want to play once, and it gives a good idea of what to do next if you want to play again. Something a lot of people would probably disagree with: I would recommend going into the Chalice Dungeons as you get access to them. Their design sucks compared to the main game, but it'll give you some more echoes to pump into those stats, and you might end up enjoying them, or at least tolerating them enough to be tempted to go through all of them, and you will most definitely want to have some story content to go back to when you invariably get bored or frustrated with them. The DLC is great, so you should probably get that at some point, but it's very hard, so you can probably wait and play for a good while before deciding if you want to buy it or not and not miss anything. Just don't do it on NG+ your first time.

I was just about to get to the DLC in my second playthrough but then I took a break to Hunt some Mons. I probably should get back to it soon, the phrase Whirligig Saw has me intrigued

you don't have to go that far but it is more important to increase your health/stamina first in the short run. your weapons don't get much scaling from stats until they're upgraded decently so you won't get much value out of pumping str/dex/whatever in the early game. I'd usually get vit/end to around ~20 before worrying about damage 30 is the first point of diminishing returns for vitality and endurance while it's 25 for the damage stats. 50 is the soft cap for everything and 99 is the hard cap where you can't level at all anymore (tho it's almost never worth leveling past 50 in any stat) CharlieFoxtrot posted:I was just about to get to the DLC in my second playthrough but then I took a break to Hunt some Mons. it's a giant pizza cutter and one of the best weapons in the game. try it out

I know it sounds counter-intuitive, but the new bosses are hard as hell, and way worse on NG+ and higher. You'll have a nice refresher course if you just blaze through the old game on regular new game.

The standard mode however causes a lot of stagger and you can basically stun lock standard enemies one on one just by spamming R1. Even works on the werewolves which is counterintuitive since you'd normally want the serrated damage bonus against them. I had a fun time with it as my starting weapon. It's very versatile.

Yeah that is what I did because the first thing I did was try to start NG+ after a nine month hiatus and realizing I had completely forgotten everything about the game, even when going back to NG I still died to Gascoigne like twenty times at first
