Kiryu learned a thing or two from corvo after seeing him leap from the top of a five-story building and slam someone’s skull into concrete pavement at terminal velocity, non-lethally

Canonically Date is only 4 years older than Kiryu but he looks like 10 years older

I really love the dude's narration with the heroic orchestral music blaring in the back more than the fighting clips. His delivery is so good. Full length. Full length.

I imagine stuff like the crash and spyro remakes have colored people's expectations. not particularly surprising if they just upres'd it tho even if all they did was up the resolution, it's still the best of the dark souls trilogy and you should enjoy it if you like that series

I've only played Bloodborne, loved it and I always thought I would love Dark Souls if I gave it a real shot. I have it on PC but I really just enjoy sitting on the couch playing these days.

Boss Key Games shut down. It’s time for CliffyB to do something cool and new. I know he has it in him. The dude is talented and seems generally likable so I hope his next career mood goes smoothly compared to how it has been post Epic Games.

Changing everything in the game that was tied to frame rate to use delta time instead is a pretty big underlying technical change that I feel like people are underselling The big reason people are complaining is that there’s a pretty unfinished area toward the end of the game which won’t be changed at all. Which, sure, I guess it would be a good opportunity to fix it. But to my knowledge the remaster isn’t being made by the original devs so redesigning areas would be reaching pretty far outside of their scope.

It would be outside the scope of any remaster, even an almost complete remake like Shadow of the Colossus didn't add or change anything major

Having 60fps and more players at once is kinda big, for me. I'm looking forward to not running through Blighttown in 2fps.

The guy in the tweets is lead producer for radical heights, and just before CliffyB put out the tweet, he was saying that stuff was still in development, and then as soon as that tweet went out, he posted that. I have no love lost for CliffyB but I do feel bad for the people he roped in.

That makes sense, yeah. What a shame. I wasn’t crazy about their games so far but I always like CliffyB and he seemed to have assembled a great group of people for this company. I’m hoping they get scooped up ASAP by someone so they can get back to making games and taking care of their families.

I beat Yakuza Kiwami over the weekend. It broke my dang heart. Kiryu teaching me how to feel again. I am glad that I was playing the remake, and not the original. There are a lot of rough edges present even here. Bosses just straight up deciding that you couldn't hit them, fights where you get dropped into a room with 10 dudes with weapons, and a lot of fetch quests to waste your time. That said, it must have felt incredibly special when it came out. I am going to take a break and try to clear up some other games. I don't know if I want to wait for Kiwami 2, or jump in to the 6 that I already own. I hear that 6 has recaps of all of the games, so that makes me want to jump into it. However, I hear it is also the last game with Kiryu-chan, and I won't go back to play previous games if I know the plot, so I may wait it out. I don't ever want to say goodbye to my beautiful boy. PS: Play the game on easy mode. It does not affect any trophies, and the bosses don't feel like slogs. I was trying so hard to muscle through it, but I decided to swallow my ~gamer pride~ and man I should have done it so much sooner.

I only knew Zero and Kiwami going into 6 and I had a good handle on almost everything that was going on. Any characters that I assume were introduced in later games were either explained well enough or not that important. I guess there was one late-game character that was a big deal in 2-5 that the game expects you to have an emotional connection to

I don't know about talented, but likable is completely not accurate. The dude is a gigantic douchebag. Thankfully his employees got new jobs at Epic and are working on Fortnite now.

Taintrunner posted:Yes it was incredibly badass Coughing Hobo posted:Kiryu has been low-key killing people since the first game, or at the very least crippling them so severely that death would be preferable. I've said it before and I'll say it again, I'm sure, but Yakuza having the twin strands of "Kiryu has never killed" in the plot and "loving hell, Kiryu, that guy is 100% dead" in the gameplay is one of my favourite things. It makes me laugh literally every time. And yeah, even the ones that are technically survivable are very often a cavalcade of spinal and/or organ trauma. One of the things I missed when I played 6 is the random mobs sticking around to apologise after you pinned one of them down and poured boiling water down his throat then suplexed his buddy through a motorbike. In 6 they just disappear instead.

I imagine you can get away with it with very simple games in fixed hardware. But Dark Souls don't look like that simple.
