Dark Souls 1 and 3

after 142 hours for DS1 and 92 for DS3

As bad as RNG is, layered RNG is even worse. For example, in Ni No Kuni: Wrath of the White Witch (amazing RPG, BTW totally worth a try, pretty long imo) end/post game sidequest requires you to craft a War God's Ax. Alright, end game weapon, how hard can it be? Well it requires a Demon's Ax, 5 Scroll's of Truth and 5 Kaleidostone's.

 

Alright, how do you get these items? Well the Scroll of Truth is a rare drop/steal, from rare enemies. Same with the Kaleidostone. You need five each. The fastest way to get them? A certain character has the Steal ability that only he has. His (in FF7 terms) Limit Break makes stealing easier (or makes stealing the rare item easier, it's been a while). IIRC, the limit breaks are RNG as well.

 

Well how about the Demon's Ax? Surly that can be bought or found right? Right? Nope, crafted. You need two Black Wings (common drop), three Tachestone's (common drop) and one Grand Ax. You've got to be kiddi- wait, what?! You can buy this ax? Oh good.

 

that's more of an example of RNG done right tbh

 

Not when item drop/steal rate, and enemy spawn rate are really low, like really really low.

If it was required for the main quest I'd understand, but these sorts of things are standard in RPGs and they're where that sense of accomplishment comes in when your grinding pays off

I think that Jews are too self centered and greedy, Catholics interpret their bible too literally, and Muslims are too prone to violence.

This pretty much

They're generalizations, of course, but they wouldn't exist if they didn't have some truth to them

As for me, I'm an atheist

I don't hold any ill will towards religious people and religion has had very little effect on my life so I just see it as a thing that exists, that I just can't understand for the life of me.

dark souls 3 with blighty-kun

we backstabbed a dude at the same exact time, it must've been frame-perfect because i'm pretty sure you're not supposed to be able to do that

wish my PC wasn't shit so i could've recorded that moment

the blue trash bag

yeah that's pretty accurate i'd say

dark souls 3 is easily the worst experience i've fucking had in a video game

like way to take everything good and fun about the first game and completely shit on it

if dark souls 3 pvp isn't unbalanced than cheating is fucking rampant and fromsoftware doesn't do jack shit about it

dark souls 1 doesn't even fucking have an anti-cheat system and i've never had a problem with ds1's pvp

like may as well play offline, where it's harder than dark souls 1 for all the wrong reasons

parrying windows are fucking miniscule because the game isn't frame locked but the parrying seems to still be frame-based

most of the bosses seem to follow the same formula of get behind and attack until dead or you get stunlocked or simply 1 hit, which totally shits on the "hard but fair" aspect of dark souls 1 that made it great in the first place

common enemies are harder than the actual boss battles, it's absolute hell trying to get through the high wall but the vordt is just fine

the easiest fucking boss in the game is preceded by the most frustrating area

there's a lot of stuff dark souls 3 does better than dark souls 1, but it doesn't matter when it's not implemented in to a playable fucking game

what the hell, why are more people choosing walkthrough

the game's no fun if you have to have every aspect of it spoon-fed to you

would it have killed you to use something that makes sense

and i don't think 2 parts of a full name count as a single word

so for the sake of simplicity, i'm skipping over you

Bout as fancy as I'm gonna get for like a day.

i want some now fuck

If taking a stand against DRM and Valve's digital distribution monopoly means I miss out on a few games then so be it. I will not support Valve under any circumstance.

which is ironic, considering the forum you're on

"i don't get the appeal therefore it's bad"

also i'm not usually one to defend valve because their customer service has sunken below EA levels, but you're missing out on basically everything since steam is the biggest digital content distributor in the PC market

unless you're a shitter who pirates everything he plays just like btg

looks like i'm an honorary right winger now

umineko no naku koro ni

i remember back in like 2011 when it was absolute hell on earth trying to find this VN with a proper english patch and trying to get it all to work

NOW IT'S AVAILABLE ON STEAM

YESSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS

"Oh hey! You think X game is best one in series, this view is different than mine, UNFRIEND!" WHO THE HELL DOES THAT KIND OF SHIT?!

well i mean fallout 4 is kinda shit

who doesnt have civ V yet, go get it right now. Just 74 cents on steam, WITH all expansions.

that's just your price, guy

you probably have a DLC or something missing that's included in the package

OT: Dark Souls
