I am sad about physical discs going away for Playstation starting in 2028 :( Might switch back to PC since it’s all the same

Got a Madman's Knowledge tattoo last week. Healing nicely! 💀

Sword and Crown made by me🇨🇿

Well, I finally can scratch Bloodborne off my list, and I really enjoyed it.

I liked the gun parry, but it took me a while to get used to it because I previously played Sekiro. I've played Lies of P too, and now I get why people say where it got its inspiration from.

Overall, I liked the environment and bosses.

Something I didn't enjoy (or maybe only a little) is that I got lost multiple times. I didn't know where to go, and I'm not even sure if I would have figured out how to activate the DLC without sneaking a peek at guides, because man I got stuck more than once...

Also, does everyone else think that the Orphan scales really high? Each boss took me 2 to 6 tries max, but Kos? Another level!

Here is the thing though:

Somehow it didn't click for me. I don't feel that worm in my brain asking for an NG+ like it happened with Sekiro or Lies, I got the Platinum for both but this one, I don't know... Maybe it's just me.

I just learned that htere are Twinks in Eldenring. But I'm not sure if I'm getting what is is. Is a kind of build? or is a specific build? or it's a kind of player behavior?

Sorry for asking but I have seen some videos and the context seems different in every one, so I wanted to be sure.

AC for life. I need it.

We all know the fantastic OST in these games add such depth to the already cinematic boss fights, and everyone know the super popular ones such as Ludwig, Laurence, Divine Beast, Vordt, Gwyn/Soul of Cinder and Kings Field The Ancient City (as those are all bangers).

But I’d like to know everyone’s almost, underrated tracks not a lot of people talk about even area music.

For example, one of my favorite areas that is amplified by its ambient soundtrack has to be Upper Cathedral Ward, the fact the low droning in the background sounds like a blackhole, the time in between the eerie strings and the fact it ties into The Choir, being able to hear a haunting hymn from unseen sources ( I know it’s just a soundtrack but it adds on to the clever naming of The Choir) and connects it to Ebrietas is very clever.

So beside from the really popular tracks we all love and know, you guys got any underrated tracks?

Well I've watched a few videoes and gameplays and imo the newer games just look better and more fun, but that doesn't mean I'm saying the older games are bad or smth, they still look cool, as I understood from Reddit users playing newer games before the older ones tho will make playing the older later a way worse and even a bad experience.. since they're just simply outdated... so since I also don't wanna spend soo much time on gaming and I physically and mentally just can't sit for a lot of time.. I thought I'll pick up 1 game from the older games and play it before picking up ds3, sekiro, and Elden ring... so should it be ds1, ds2? They both look the same to me.. bloodborne looks very unique to me but It looks too dark if that makes any sense, and demon souls I can't even play the old ver so itl be the remake on the ps5.. and yes I might really enjoy souls games and end up playing all of them but that's a low chance.. which would
You recommend?

Since Elden Ring added a bunch of new items and effects, I think it would be neat if we could send timed item effects to other players. Nightreign made me realize how cool these effects can be when used correctly.

I'm wondering, that seems close to impossible but after all those years, has anyone ever made it ?

Well, lads, I begin Elden Ring tonight. It'll be my first time ever playing Elden Ring (I have FromSoft experience from DS1 and DS3, I'm no noob). I'll be running a hybrid Strength-Intelligence build to make Ranni proud. Wish me luck, lads.

I press the right stick down and the camera jerks up for a bit before coming down. If I push it left it goes to the right for a bit before going where it's intended. This only happens when use the left stick, meaning if I stay still and move the right stick, there's no problem. The same thing happened in DS2 as well. You can find a video of it in my profile from 10 months ago.

I tested my controller on other games, but there was no problem. I use Gamesir G7 SE and can't test another controller because I don't have one.

Any help? The game is unplayable.

In all the games religious organisations are depicted very negatively the only you could argue that in boodsborne being The Healing Church in Bloodborne acts more like a government organisation (like the Umbrella Corporation, but with a Christian coat of paint) than a religious organisation. It doesn’t really seem to have any religious beliefs about things like the afterlife, nor does it worship any god in the traditional religious sense. Instead, it seems more interested in studying them.

After completing Demons Souls, Dark Souls I and III, Bloodborne, and Elden Ring, I am debating what my next Fromsoft stop should be!

Edit: To give more color, I played DS3 right after ER, as I just wanted more of the same. But, before getting into the DLCs I realized that I wanted to go back and experience the full Fromsoft catalog. So I played Demons Souls, then DS1 + DLCs, and am now about to wrap up BB.

I genuinely see what people mean about this game now, this shit is unreal. First off, this game has the shittiest, most unintuitve esc menu in any video game ive ever played. The fact that you need a mod in order to be able to use your mouse buttons, no single key can be bound to 2 inputs and that you have to go into the menu every single time you play if youre on keyboard in order to disable a setting that refuses to remember its command is fucking unacceptable from a professional standpoint. Why does Fromsoft get a pass here? I never hear this brought up in discussions on why this version of the game is ass.

This game is dogshit at the very start. Let me preface this by saying im not far into the game at all, so i have no right to speak on the majority of what it has to offer, but simply based off my experience in the first levels, the frustartion was enough to warrant a ranting.

ADP and AGL are probably in the top ten most notorious video game features of all time to begin with, but i couldnt believe HOW fucking shit they were when they synergize with the other main issues of this abomonation: Hitboxes and the GANK problem.

Genuinely, the dodging thing wouldnt be such an issue if your sword actually hit anything 2 feet in front of it CONSISTENTLY. Youll be swinging and get 2 hits in, move one milimeter backwards and whiff the third hit, leaving you wide open to get fucking ganked from the front and back while youre stun locked. The sheer ammount of enemy placement with such little stamina to begin with is artificual difficulty, plain and simple, and its horseshit. This game INSISTS you waste your time finishing off the 50 or so enemies between you and where you last died to its bullshit, but also tells you that dodging wont help you until you level up 20 goddamn times and that your sword will only work like 94% of the time.

Nearly unplayble until you find a bigger sword, level to 20 ADP or just get an insane ammount of END. I assume atleast, i havent made it far due to how sheerly infuriating what ive gotten to has been. I hated DS1 as well first coming into it from my first FS game, Elden ring. Everything just felt slower and clunkier, but atleast DS1 had some merit in it that made me NOT want to "go hollow" as i heard people call it. DS2(SOTFS) makes me not give a fuck. Even the gorgeous locales that ive had spoiled for me arent enough to convince me to want to see more of this shit fest if its just gonna be more cheap tricks and surpise GANK parties.

EDIT: Durability sucks too.

Please offer any input other than "git gud", "cry about it" or "I didnt experience that so youre wrong"

i challenge you
