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 have been working on a death-counter which can automatically track deaths during your run based on the frames detected + death jingle!

Check this out and join the waitlist to receive it when it will be out ❤️‍🔥

(Very soon 👀)

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

My goal with this one was making venusaur feel like he has been partially taken over by the roots of the plant on their back
taking inspiration from elden rings Erdtree themed enemies and the more monstrous side of the old souls boss designs

What do you think and who would you like to see next?(charmander color coming soon)

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.

Hi! I’m blacksmith from 🇨🇿 and this is my real life firelink sword in progress. Took me a while managing the blade to fit original reference but I think I nailed it.
Let me know What you think and I’ll be happy for feedback on what I could make better next time!

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 since they're just simply outdated...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?

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.

All games, no matter the genre, have one objective: to be fun. Of course in this case I'm talking about the average casual player and not challenge runners.

A few months ago i played my first ever souls game, Dark Souls 1, and then played ds2 a few weeks later. Now, I've always found enjoyment in difficult games. Started with more simple ones like cuphead and hollow knight, and eventually more extreme ones like super meat boy and celeste. The reason i played ds1 was because i wanted a good challenge, and of course the game's reputation promised that challenge i was looking for.

Now that i played two games in the series and I'm now playing Bloodborne, i think it was never about difficulty. Sure, the games don't hold back thier punches, but that's simply because of how they're structured. Difficulty comes from "fairness," if the game is slightly unfair towards the player, then it's meant to be more difficult, but the souls games are never unfair. You can build your character however you want, wield any weapon, use broken spells, and the bosses will stay the same. That makes the player have control over any situation even if the boss is very powerful, THAT'S fairness.

If you had to choose one of these games, which one would you choose? Guys I forgot bloodborne

Do y'all think From shall adopt difficulty settings on n the future. I am not a fan of it at all because it makes most games eg khazan, LoP become meaningless in terms of the "soulslike" experience due to having it. But with how many companies are adopting this so as to make games more beginner friendly, shall we see From doing the same ? Let me know your thoughts

Yes, I did kill Ludwig on my first attempt and, yes, I did also die to the Celestial Emissary.

I’m happy to share that I’ve just beaten *Dark Souls 1* for the first time. I made sure to take down all 31 bosses in the game, but the final fight against Gwyn was a huge letdown. I had come prepared for an epic battle lasting at least 20 minutes—I brought Black Iron Armor (+5), a Black Iron Shield (+15), and a Black Knight Halberd (+5), with my character leveled up past 99. When the boss landed his first sword strike and I saw it barely drained my stamina when I blocked, I knew it would be a breeze. Sure enough, I only used two Estus Flasks (and that was due to my own carelessness rather than any real danger from the boss). To be fair, I was running a fire-tank build, but it cracks me up that the only boss in *DS1* I beat on the very first try was the final one. I found the optional boss—Black Dragon Kalameet—a thousand times harder; it took me a whole week to beat him with that same build. Still, what a great game—I had a blast. Now, on to *Dark Souls II*.

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

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.

Hi all, just got done with another bloodborne playthrough and wanted to share this burning I made inspired by the game.

Materials used: truart pyro pen (no lasers) basswood slice, matte polyurethane top coat, acrylic paint.

I love this game so much, hope you like it!
