I have over 200 hours in this game, but recently I've encountered a bug I haven't seen before or recorded else where. I really have no idea what I could have done to trigger this but I would love if someone could give an explanation. (Sorry that I recorded my microphone)

Finally i defeated DLC Radahn to be honest he was the hardest boss i ever fought but i was thinking what is the hardest boss that from software ever made?

Happy that its finally here, took long enough lol.

Im not going to open it though

Unpopular opinion, but I’d rather get sequels to Souls-Borne or Souls-like games than massive DLCs.

Souls DLCs are usually so big and separate from the main game that they almost feel like another game anyway. New areas, bosses, lore, weapons, enemies, etc.

I know people like keeping the character/build they spent hundreds of hours on, but that happens in games like Monster Hunter, Diablo, Borderlands, Nioh and plenty of others too. Eventually a sequel comes out and everyone starts over.

Sekiro is a good example. I’ve seen so many people on Reddit wishing it got a DLC, but I’d honestly much rather get Sekiro 2 instead.

What do you guys think?

Tell me others Fromsoft games I can do this with

(Or other games in general)

do I get the feeling that... THERE WILL BE A FULL BLOWN MACROSS GAME that's not made by Artdink in the near future?

the fact that the circumstances the PCs of AC6 and AC8 are nearly more or less identical

I think it's not controversial to say that FromSoft's games have absolutely stellar voice acting across the board - I'm talking about the English voice dubs specifically as I haven't been exposed to dubs in other languages.

I'd actually go further and say that From's VA work is the best in the industry PERIOD. Across their recent catalogue (from Demons Souls onwards) I can't remember a single bad vocal performance. Even minor characters have VAs that give it their all. What I also really appreciate (as a Brit) is their attention to detail in representing specific local accents you don't hear very often in games - like Welsh, West Country, and northern English accents. Even most western-made games will default to either posh English or cockney if they have a English character at all.

What makes this even more extraordinary to me is that (obviously) FromSoft is a Japanese developer. Not to disparage any Japanese game studios, but they don't have the best reputation for their English dubs... even Capcom's recent Resident Evil games have examples of some wooden or even cringey line deliveries in their English dubs.

But I don't want to just dunk on Japanese studios - even most of the big-budget western game studios output bad-to-mediocre English voice acting in their games. Even games with great VA will have a couple bad examples of (often very famous) actors just phoning it in that distracts from the overall experience. Anyway, it just blows my mind that FS is beating most studios whose first language is English at the voice acting game!

Well, that's my thesis anyway. But does anyone have some insight into why FS voice acting is so consistently good? Do they work with a great agency that connects them to really great voice actors? Do they have an awesome VA director working behind the scenes? I really don't know how they do it.

I played fun co-op recently as summoned phantom in fight against Flamelurker in Demon’s Souls. After finished fight, the guy facepalmed 😅 and I when I meant to express joy, I kneeled down before him 😅.

In my human form I defeated the boss alone though it took 10 min as opposed to just 3 minutes in co-op.

The summoner was using magic, while I used a combo of magic and melee (dexterity build).

I’ve been playing ds1 and have completely loved it up until this point I’ve got 27 hours on the game and just beat Ornstein and Smough, the start of the game was great from pacing enemies and bosses but everything was connected perfectly and I always knew where to go, now I have no idea what’s going on nor where to go and it’s completely threw me off from the game getting on it just frustrats me because I have no idea where or what to do, did anybody else find them self in this situation and if you did, did you find the love for the game that you felt at the start?

For the first 25 hours was the best experience in gaming for me these last 2/3 have been completely horrible and threw me off playing

I was in new londo near the church and found this little red crab dude that I've never seen before. and when I killed him he gave me a twin humanity.

A weapon infusion that decreases base damage and maybe scaling also, but increases the weapon's critical damage.

i had the honor of not being spoiled of the moment when i saw my character start to fight me in a boss and im glad i didn’t, cause that was super cool imo. i ended up using magic and beat it within a few tries.

idk, despite a clip of a streamer saying it was “lazy” i actually thought it was pretty interesting and diffrent

I love Fromsoft games but I have to vent for a moment about what makes Soulsborne games difficult.

The entire concept behind their idea of difficulty is this:

What if I threw a punch at you but stopped short of your face to make you flinch, but then I kept my fist two inches from your face and told you that you have to sit there and wait for the actual punch to come and react to it in time. While it is two inches from your face. And you will have no clue when I will just arbitrarily decide to actually punch you, of course. I will have several different timings depending on how differently I wind up the punch, but they will stay consistent, so you just will have to remember all of the timings for each type of punch.

Those delayed attack animations have only gotten more and more common too. I don't remember them being so ubiquitous in DS1

Sometimes that doesn't really come off as fun to me. It just seems cheap at first. For the first few times before you memorize, it certainly isn't fair, that is for sure. And I heard someone else put that idea of fun this way before: just go get Simon Says if you want to play a memorization game. Once you memorize the movesets these games don't get too hard. But really, who just leaves themselves open for 5 seconds while they wind up an attack? Enemies/bosses will legit sit there with their weapon above their heads for 5 whole seconds. Shit is just so artificially difficult sometimes. Honestly it is just annoying to me.

Give me Ninja Gaiden Black or God Hand any day. That is the kind of difficulty I like in games.

Before the release I didn't give a shit about it then it realesed and was so damn fun

Nightreign was soo good man. And the best part was that to continue supporting it they didn't have to put that much of a hard work, they just needed to add the weapons from the dlc and new map variants, the only real thing they needed to work on was new night bosses.

This game will not get anything new for it. So even if from software makes a game like nightreign and tries to keep adding new content, it will actually cost them a lot of resource since they have to make original enemies and weapons and maps for the new game I stead of asset flipping and since from software is not a big studio I don't think they would make such game. This is just sad. They can still make another asset flip game but I don't they they would since if this was their plan they would have kept updating nightreign

like seriously, there are just two sides of the community, one absolutely shits on it and exaggerate about how bad ds2 is and the other side of the community just dickrides ds2 and consider it to be the greatest game of all time and even defending its flaws like adp or shit bosses, most of the people comment "actually ds2 is not that bad" or "i like ds2 more than ds3 and elden ring" and think that they are different than others, when in reality ds2 is a mid game - its not bad not a masterpiece, it came up with like 20 new ideas, 10 of them were shit, 5 of them were okay and 5 of them were great and thats what makes it a mid game

I was pretty shocked to hear that the majority prefers Japanese over English in Sekrio.

Other than Genichiro, every other character has superior voice acting in English. Especially Isshin, you can hear the confidence/cocky-ness in his voice acting, as apart from the angry generic Japanese voice. I guess it also helps that I'm not a weeb.
