Game to Discuss?
With carp probably never coming back to rdrama , we can now safely discuss his favorite game: No Mans Sky. While rightly found lacking on release, with it's Todd
challenging levels of pre-release hype, it never the less managed to turn into something a little more worthwhile after many enormous updates, to the point where some people find it enjoyable. Include your own opinions below in the pinned comment.
carp, capy, geto, donger pin please

Finished Bloodborne. I'd beat it before but never had the DLC. Honestly not too hard after having played the newer From games. I beat Lady Maria first try, and Orphan took like 5-6. I will say I don't really like the beast bosses at all. Just random flailing and ugly hair effects flying around the screen. The humanoids feel more natural and fun.
I also felt like replaying Kingdom Hearts 1. Charming game, but so far the feel is very dated. Shit camera and you don't get a dodge roll or magic until after the first boss (despite choosing magic as my specialty). Though playing on Proud probably creates some early game issues that didn't exist on Standard.
Guard Armor on Proud is OFFICIALLY harder than Orphan of Kos. Bite me.

I'm legitimately too r-slurred for Fromsoft games. I've played DS3 and Bloodborne, but got filtered out almost immediately. It's a sin to engage with mouse products, and Kingdom Hearts was long outside the zeitgeist by the time I got into gaming, so I legitimately have no idea what they're like. I had thought til now they were turn based RPGs ala Final Fantasy, so I'm not sure what to make of the reference to a dodge roll

They're actually some of the first modern style action RPGs.
At the base difficulty level you can generally just mash attack and tank enemy hits. But the highest difficulties require something closer to your standard i-frame action games.

isn't ds2 the one developed by an external studio? I thought ds/ds3 were the ones made in house.

For what it's worth, I actually think DS3 is harder than the first two. It's just closer to other modern action games so it feels more natural to many people.
