5 really does need a remake, it never has been released in English officially and is also the worst Ys game going.

You have to hit them from the side, back or where they obviously don't have a weapon. You also need to hit them with Adol's weapon having side.

Yeah that sounds more like a Dante Must Die bonus mode, but Taro gotta troll. Beating it probably gives you one bronze trophy or something.

So it's okay that a game features tasteless near-nudity that is completely irrelevant to the narrative or gameplay because it's not taking itself seriously?

It's okay any time really

What I want to see is an end to female action stars wearing high heels and running, that stuff is just crazy!

There should be a bit where they power up by taking their heels (limiters) off

That was Witcher 1. Witcher 3's nudity takes place mainly in the context of loving long-term relationships which are central to the characters, hope that helps

Lies I totally screwed that witch lady near the start of the game and then killed her :smith:

I missed getting the 5 star rating by 3800 points and I am upset because it would have taken like literally 10 more notes to get there. gently caress this goddamn song why didn't they just cover Dick Dale's version instead of making their own weird version

It's been around long before the Dick Dale version and there's a bunch of different ones.

I used to think guitar hero/rock band expert was hard until I tried playing Miku games on expert. Good god! It feels like they didn't even bother balancing for home hardware with all the crazy rear end triple tapping and crap

GH games are mechanically hard for me because of the non-standard controller but yeah they're nothing compared to the amount of poo poo most Japanese rhythm games throw at you on the harder stages.

CJacobs posted:

The GH2 version says "as made famous by Dick Dale", his is the version they mangled

That's what all the songs they couldn't get the rights to the original version and had to do their own say.

It's more of an old school sound novel (mostly just text and sound effects/music) but Banshee's Last Cry is pretty good.

Yo, brief Dark Souls question--

I bought Dark Souls 2 back when it came out and am only now getting to actually play it (my old PC couldn't run it...). My understanding is that the Scholar of the First Sin expansion rebalances the main game in addition to whatever new content it adds. Basically, is it worth upgrading to that one for my first playthrough? I'm not even sure I'll enjoy the game right now, even though I got super into the first one...

You'll probably need Scholar if you're planning on doing any multiplayer stuff since the majority of the community will have moved onto that, though there's likely not huge amounts of people still playing it anyway.

Yeah Soul Reaver has one of the best intros ever. And the game is pretty decent too.

It's on GOG for pretty cheap but it was before standardised third person controls on PC so they're a bit all over the place.
Also those podcast guys suck

Soul Reaver was neat, i remember thinking it was kind of like an Evil Zelda game.

I also seem to remember that right after i got a bunch of skills and seemed ready to unlock a whole bunch more game the game instead just ended.

There's a bit just before the end boss where you see a bunch of visions of the future, all that stuff was originally actually going to be in the game instead of shoehorned into sequels but got cut because it was already a year or more behind schedule.
