The lamest possible complaint I could imagine for this game especially after watching that trailer a dozen times.

Watched the trailer once again and man am I glad it's only a six month wait (fingers crossed).

Have the strangest feeling it isn't going to play like those. acksplode posted:I'm looking forward to having an icon on my minimap direct me to a pot with limbs that offers a mission where I have to follow a lizard person without being spotted. I can't wait to climb a big tree to unlock a chunk of the map. This is how the game will work. Only six months!!

Rolling my eyes as people say "it's just Dark Souls" when we've already seen a dragon wield its weakness from those games. Get real folks.

Can we crash bitcoin before January? I'd been planning on building a new PC for whenever Elden Ring finally came out and I'd like to buy a video card for a realistic price.

JBP posted:Parrying by firing a blunderbuss at point blank range into someone's face will always be the superior form of parry. Yeah Bloodborne has the best combat ever. I actually avoided parrying at first because I never did it in Dark Souls haha

Did a little poking around and it looks like Sekiro's first gameplay trailer dropped at the E3 before release but that was a larger gap between now and Elden Ring's release date. If the upload dates are right for the more in-depth gameplay videos for Sekiro they were released in the week or days leading up to release.

Yeah one of the many reasons I couldn't get into it is I like finding a cool weapon and using that for a whole game. As an example in Dark Souls 3 I ran with the Butcher Knife through the whole game and it drops early in the third-ish area.

Dr. Video Games 0031 posted:Real talk though, this does seem like it will probably not be the kind of open world many people are expecting. This talk of six areas and a hub area makes me think this isn't just one big seamless map, but several distinct "open fields" that may only be loosely connected with one another. Which is good because "true" open worlds suck rear end.

It is a hot take. If you're good at your deflections/parries most of the fights go pretty fast. Though when I first started fighting say Genichiro it seemed like the fight was gonna take awhile because I was trying to whittle away his health bar but once I got down the timing of parries it went so much quicker.

lol VideoGames posted:Do they actually mean Dark Souls 1 or some other game beginning with DS? There are two people in that thread with insanely bad souls takes. The other one was saying Lords of the Fallen is better than DS2.

Yeah I'm generally bad at video games and getting good is the answer. The bosses are the best part it's the prize for getting through the level.

VideoGames posted:When a game click it is so satisfying and each time a from game has clicked it has been more satisfying that before. Sekiros click was the most and it was when I beat Owl 2. There's nothing in games that compares to getting dumpstered by a boss for an hour straight and then having it click and manhandling them without taking a hit.

Bananasaurus Rex posted:I remember when that annoying streamer dsp, notorious for being terrible at these games and blaming the controls, beat isshin his first try. Think he just brute forced it by spamming the axe and got extremely lucky lol This blows my mind lol. I remember in DS2 he would spam lightning spear to beat every boss and then got stuck on Looking Glass Knight because it just reflected it with its mirror shield (the boss is one of the easier ones).

Dr. Video Games 0031 posted:I don't agree with all of that page's opinions on the localization choices but the insight into the japanese boss names is interesting. Yeah "Crossbreed Priscilla" and "Seath the Scaleless" are much better names than a straight translation would've been and they have a problem with both. Didn't see anyone mention it but Seath is the name of a dragon in King's Field. Groovelord Neato fucked around with this message at 13:48 on Jun 18, 2021 |

I don't recall it ever being named in game but that's another odd complaint because it is a hydra. I thought of it as "the hydra" when I encountered it.

Fair Bear Maiden posted:Aldrich's Japanese name *is* Eldritch. It was changed in the English translation, I assume because someone's name being actually Eldritch sounds stupid as gently caress. The person complained about that change lol BeanpolePeckerwood posted:which one, the translation one? it was average and less insightful than i expected. there is no such thing as a perfect translation. direct translation is often less useful across cultural divides than contextual translation. I liked it to see what the meanings were in Japanese but the writer gave off "Just according to keikaku*" vibes.
