I still wonder when he said they were done with dark souls if he meant that particular series or the entire formula

change after every boss. and you have to use a weapon u havent used on the boss b4. you have to fight all of the bosses and you cant buy extra chunks or purposefully grind them, so u have to strategise which weapons u get to +9 or 10. neway i just made that up on the spot so no idea if it will be fun

Can you imagine the weapon swap mod from dark souls. Your weapon randomly changing every 10-12 seconds during boss encounters

Well poo poo, I'm going to go do that. I've tied like 10 times in a row to the Watchdog's stupid charge attacks, and while I'm sure that it's the Bloodborne version of the Chrysalis I'd still like to do something else.

*fau trying to dodge the watchdog* No... I can't do it!

phew, got up to cleric beast tonight before i stopped, got him just shy of halfway hp on my first try so hopefully I don't need to run into this particular wall too many times before i kill it, plus now i can finally level up and upgrade gear in the hunters dream so should be ok.

i would be very surprised at a bloodborne 2, but hell, ecstatic

Its definitely not going to be bloodborne 2. Supposedly its called PHANTOM WAIL and is a spiritual continuation of the souls formula in an ancient aztec/maya aesthetic with a focus on unarmed combat and fighting styles

This guy was right about bloodborne, DS3 and the first DS3 DLC so theres probably some truth to his posts but again its the internet so

something i didnt realize until i heard rich evans talking about it, in the first zone w/ the mobs of torch holding villagers, by a nice little shortcut there's one of those huge executioner guys.

he's not guarding treasure, he's not gonna drop anything special, hell he only gives you like 200 blood on kill even though he's 20x stronger than everything else in the area. he's solely there to teach players that they don't have to fight everything and sometimes avoiding a fight is the answer

Isn't that where you get the first blood gem in the game?

one mystery i've never solved: sometimes chalice dungeons have messengers up in the rafters of rooms. like you can look up sometimes and see messages left up in the roots at the very top of a hallway, that you could never conceivably get to without some sort of exploit. but i've never seen how people manage to do that.

try attacking

is that the second or third level of the dungeon? my guess is that maybe its just messages left on the previous floor clipping through the ceiling

Remember that they use wacky loading tricks too, like how the dark firelink in ds3 carried over all of the messages from the regular shrine. You might be seeing stuff loaded in from other places

i found something i've never seen before in a chalice today. it's a boss arena with a gigantic bottomless pit in the center.



i tried to lure the abhorrent beast I fought there into it, but no luck.

I've done at least a hundred hours of chalice I've never seen that before. That's amazing

the hollow ... which i like a lot even though its mostly falling off the right branch to land next to some loot. and then the epic final battle with the mushroom kingdom

On a larger scale the dark souls 1map was designed vertically. I could me imagining this but i think I remember a Miyazaki interview where he says he prefers vertical design

thinkin about the early bits of the game where you knock on doors and hear a social event going on the other side, and this bizarre maniacal laughter thats at a perfect point between drunk cackling and deeply pained wailing that makes you wonder if everyone inside is having fun or clawing their own eyes out

this game is perfect

Those are actual recordings of the sound team after Miyazaki tells them to go back and try again

If we could have Bloodborne PC we could make a randomizer mod that swapped you through the weapons but also set your stats to fit whatever weapon was equipped at the time. Having to change play style mid boss fight, between weaker monsters... that would feel amazing

I thought it was generally agreed upon that what Miyazaki said about it was a misunderstanding/mistranslation about bosses becoming normal enemies in chalices but I hope I’m wrong
