A Dark Souls Thread ft. Bloodborne and, begrudgingly, Sekiro (2020 4 phase boss fight mix ft. McGarnagle stomping Bloodborne in his sleep)
Some threads might «disappear» today...

New thread!

YESSSSS!!

I have played Demon’s Souls before and have it on my PS3 hard drive. I honestly think I’m going to hold off on the PS5 until it is smaller, but I’ll probably cave in and buy it.

Fingers crossed it’s coming to PC eventually, after they change their tune another 7 or 8 times

#4

I wish they’d return to Armoured Core.

Never played it before, very much fussed, but will never own a platform I can play it on :sob:

I forgot to mention, I’d swap out the hornet ring for the estus ring, and maybe either Lloyd’s instead of that life ring

This is it now.

That was a warm up.

I’ve got him now. This time.

#12

that’s the best I’ve seen you fight this boss. A bit more composure and I reckon you’ve got it

also I forgot to mention once your blue bar is empty you can’t use the fire buff anymore so don’t get caught out/confused right during the battle

Ah man, keep an eye on your item bar, that trips everyone up don’t worry

I think I’ve got used to juggling the menu now but was slipping up big time.

I’ve grown to just flat out fight him which I know is wrong but that is so damn enjoyable.

Back soon, will pop a message when I’m streaming again.

He’s down tonight, I know I’ve been saying that for almost 2 weeks - but tonight he is definitely down.

Played it before. Undecided about the remaster. Bloodborne decided my console fate this gen. Demon’s won’t.

While I recognise its influence in the sequels, it has always felt to me to be a prototype for DarkS which refined and improved upon it. I was interested in the Demon’s remaster until I saw the price and Sony’s complete disaster of a launch of the PS5.

The original Demon’s had a lot of potential upgrade paths but they were mostly useless because the upgrade materials needed hours of farming. Certainly interested to see if they have changed drop rates / lizard respawns.
