Took down the Duke this morning - possibly the weakest boss fight so far? Just stuck by the left tail and slashed away, occasionally having to heal when I got crystalled and the frame rate plummeted. Archives was a terrific area though.
I donāt have the expansion pack. I believe it introduces a new area and has vehicles and guns. But I prefer to go on foot and smack them with melee weapons so I havenāt bothered with it. If it ever goes below a tenner i might.
I always let my games patch automatically. I can see why it would be a pain in the ass with a slow internet connection. But I do it on PC so idk
Ah fair, think it has the whole game anyway, Iāll gfive it a go this weekend!
my internetās normally fine but the patching on this is dead slow. It seems to do it gradually, Iāll just play. not really fussed about any extras
I would keep them patched tbh

Iām really struggling with Dishonored 2. I loved the first game and I really really WANT to love D2 but Iām not actually feeling it. Iām playing as Emily and Iām playing all stealthy (or trying to) but Iām finding it an incredibly frustrating experienceā¦
I love the IDEA of a lot of the skills (especially domino) but Iām finding them hard to use in practice. You need to be fairly close to an enemy to domino them and you need line of sight too which means that most of the time they manage to see me while Iām lining it up and I end up scrapping with them.
Any thoughts/advice/succor?
Iām playing as Carvo and I feel similar struggles. I think I might be setting myself too many challenges - Iām learning the controls and the game as I go so I shouldnāt be pushing myself to be perfect immediately. It strikes me that itās meant to be a bit frustrating in the early stages.
Having played Fallout4 almost nonstop for eight months, itās quite a nice relief to be free of the Geiger counter clicking all the time you open bins and thingsā¦
Does anyone think itād be worth starting a new Games Thread? This oneās massive.
Maybe, maybe make this one the darksouls loser thread and hope they bloat the next one #safetywink
Eh? Which boss is this? Seath?
Are you looking for high routes? Iām trying for a stealth/no kills playthrough and have got to the royal conservatory using pretty much only far reach and dark vision as powers, although itās been quite slow work. Mostly found heading upwards with far reach to be a good option on the levels so far.
i have it on the Vita - i liked it but wasnāt very good at it, and there was a level where you had to do lots of fighting enemies along with some lava/fire and i tried it a few times, failed miserably and never played it since.
should get the remastered version on PS4 at some point and give it another go, but it feels like it might end up free on Plus so holding off. downloaded the GR2 demo but havenāt played it yet.
Yes! We should start a Gaming Thread 2017 because this is a bit silly.
Oh blimey!
Do people want to give this a try?
Yep. Aced it, but not in a way that felt satisfying.
Yeah heading up has worked well for a lot of things, but Iāve also found some places (like in a later level where there are 8 very hostile ladies out to get you) that stealth is pretty much impossible. Wondering if stealth in 1st person is always flawed as you canāt see where your body is if that makes sense.
Makes total sense. Itās really hard to have any context of whether or not you can been seen in first person. Am not thrilled to know Iām going to get stuck soon. Itās been slow going getting as far as I haveā¦
is No Manās Sky as bad as everyone says? still reckon i could get into just flying around space a bit.
Itās meant to be loads better since they updated but I havenāt played it since a week or so after release. Probs worth a pop at Ā£20 or whatever you can get it for now.
still 40 quid on steam.
Ooft, probs would avoid until a sale in that case.
I think my failure to take to it is down to my own expectations more than the gameās failing in fairness, I wanted some kind of central narrative and there basically isnāt one in the slightest. If you go in considering it basically a walking simulator in space (with mining and upgrading elements) and that sounds appealing to you then youāll probably enjoy it.
