The idea of the endless dungeon mode seems promising, but I might not ever play another video game again then

If you want some real fail, I bought a PS4 to play ground zeroes

I think I might be the dumdum because I just don't have fun with these games.

I'm sorry imp zone.

I've failed you

It happens. I'm sure there are games you like, and that's all that matters

i never understood sl1 runs because it always seemed people just leveled pyromancy which seems the same as just not levelling vitality. Well good luck on your quest.

yeah... but the no shield, no armour, and no vitality run is freaking fun. ppl should do those instead of sl1

That's always my final run, naked run with just a two handed giant sword, if I can pull that off I feel good about the game. I never did it in DS1 but I did it in DS2 before building my gimmick set of the two shields you can slam together and then invading people

hmmm, there's no sound from the iso :/ idk if that's a problem with the emulator or the image

i tried to play kf1 but boy that game is a nightmare. crazy to see that the design philosophy behind souls was in development that long ago though, even though the tech made it really hard for them to realize their ideas.

it's pretty cool playing (or at least looking up footage of) all their old first person dungeon crawlers, since you can see how they improve over time. if you can handle the control scheme, i think kf4, shadow tower abyss, and eternal ring are all legit good games. i think i like shadow tower abyss more than any of the souls games, for that matter (bloodborne will probably dethrone it tho)

Hm, maybe I'll try kf4 this week in my little game-free time between now and next Tuesday

because it's a nice way to challenge yourself in agame after you've already played it for like 50+ hours .

i've gotten about halfway through KF4 before, and it was really fun once i got past the clunkyness, but just walking around the opening area made me sort of sick, so idk if i'm going to keep going through it

I wandered around the opening area and whacked some plants with a wooden club and got gold from them. This game seems cool, especially since just this first zone has like 8 paths and nooks I could poke around in, and I laughed hard when I fell for the helmet bait. However, good lord this game is slow. I can't handle the movement speed at all and probably won't stick with it for more than the 30 minutes I played

My rom also didn't have music and sound outside of menu noises, btw.

Yeah the slow speed is something you either acclimate to or don't. kind of like the tank controls in the old RE games, i guess. out of curiosity did you realize you could run by holding whatever button you have mapped to "X"? it drains your stamina so you gotta wait for it to recover before fighting, but it makes getting around way easier.

you may also want to consider trying shadow tower/shadow tower abyss. they're both faster than the KF games, tho still in the slow spectrum.

Yeah, but it wasn't too useful considering how quickly it drained my stam. It's what I was using to get around but it still feels very slow. I might keep playing around with it, I like the look of it a lot

if you can't manage to stand playing I'd suggest checking out this guy's lp of the game. he's pretty informative and not-awful to listen to

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eHS7M1A8TSM

If I'm gonna check it out id rather play it...mainly im hesitant to jump in because I like to finish what I start and I def don't have enough time to finish it before bloodborne is out. I really liked that that first NPC could have been in any souls game too

i'll probably make two characters when i start playing bloodborne, one for skill and one for strength

I'll probably make many characters, because this is the last game im going to buy until MGSV.

i sort of like jumping in souls games, even though it's generally terribly implemented

I like the really goofy half jumps you had use in demon's souls level geometry to get to some items

Thief ring ruled though, I basically always had it on.

Yeah I was being serious. It was cool coming across clearly visible items and trying to find the perfect angle to fly over to them or fall down onto them or whatever, made me be more thorough in my exploration

I tried to google some, but I didn;t really know what I was looking for and gave up. Surely a bitter dweeb that spoiled themselves accidentally could pick up the torch.

There's nothing really to spoil in the classic sense for these games. Usually you could just find some succinct phrase like "tyrion crossbows his father to death on the toilet" but these games don't have stories so it would have to be some specifically gay poo poo like "there are 17 levels and one of them has a dragon".
