Oh, I just had the most hilarious boss encounter. A dragon that you can literally one-shot. It’s quite the trip to get to, admittedly, but it died after I did a plunge attack on its head. I wish I was kidding. I can’t stop laughing at how absurd that is.

I think the older look was better, at least on mobile.

Joel Castro started the topic Dark Souls III Review coming soon in the forum Shooting the Shit 8 years, 1 month ago
Not sure how close the Grand Archives are to the finish line, but that’s where I’m at for the moment. Either way, I’ve started my review draft for Dark Souls III, and it should be up by the end of the week. I do love the game, absolutely. Buuuuutttt I’m not sure it can surpass the original’s overall quality and legacy. It’s better than DS2 by a…[Read more]

Gone back to playing Bloodborne. Not that I’m done with Dark Souls 3, but I’m currently at Lothric Castle, and it has become a pain in the ass for the moment. Bloodborne is a game I’m much better at, and still remains a pretty good challenge in the face of Dark Souls 3.

I finally beat her last night. Had 9 Estus and got down to about 6 during the fight. I got her moveset down and stuck to bug bites to bring her down so she wouldn’t punish me. Now I’m at Lothric Castle. Red Knights can go die in a hole.

I’ve heard about the Nameless King. Yeah, I’m not looking forward to that one. I’ve heard the horror stories.

I’ve been almost everywhere in the game, apart from a few optional areas I’ll likely get to in New Game +. Everything is absolutely fantastic so far. I’m currently stuck on the Dancer of the Boreal Valley. Holy crap, she’s tough! I struggled with a few bosses (Pontiff Sulyvahn and Aldrich were especially frustrating), but this is something…[Read more]

Chrono Cross
The entire Dark Souls/Bloodborne series
Shadow of the Colossus
Final Fantasy 6
Killzone 2
Destiny
Xenogears
Super Metroid
The Witcher 3

So yeah, I haven’t been able to post as much content as I’ve wanted to lately, but that’s for a variety of reasons, some of which you know about, but also a bunch of others that have been building up ever since I moved.
First, I’ve been increasing my time at building my endurance for Air Force BMT (basic training). I meet my recruiter again in…[Read more]

Still playing Dark Souls III. Made it past the Abyss Watchers (epic fight, btw), and am now scramblong through the catacombs of this game. Skeletons are back, but this time aren’t nearly as brutal as in the first Dark Souls. Maybe it’s cuz I’m leveled appropriately, or even because they finally held back these aggressive fucks till later in the…[Read more]

Im hoping to go to Japan first, but if I do go to Europe, I’ll definitely take a continental tour and visit the UK

Joel Castro started the topic Dark Souls III – First (Second?) Impressions in the forum Shooting the Shit 8 years, 2 months ago
Yeah, this is actually the official second time I’ve played this game, but the first didn’t really count cuz A) it was a rental, and B) I had forgotten a lot of the game since I first played it. So, let’s get with what these impressions usually entail:
Pros:
– The visuals are more hauntingly beautiful than ever, and that’s saying…[Read more]

Wow, that was rather lively lol. Well, I do play every now and then, and if you’re a friend on PSN, I invite you to watch me play whenever I’m on.

Lol no worries, dude. We both feel the same way about the game. And as for Dark Souls 3, I had played some of it when it first came out, but only as a rental. Now I own it, and am currently enjoying what is, at least on a mechanical level, the best in the trilogy (I left Bloodborne out cuz that game has FAR superior combat overall IMO). Everything…[Read more]

Well, given I missed a certain deadline to get a half refund, I was hoping to get at least 15 bucks. Turns out it trades for $13 in my area, so close enough. But, apparently everyone and their mother had the same idea, and I can’t trade it in for the moment because of the influx of returns. Who knows? Maybe the first major update will improve…[Read more]
