I agree. My take away from the Alpha (which I was vocal on the alpha feedback forums) was, it has potential, but by GOD it was aggravating to play. Souls games never agitated me the way Ni-Oh Alpha did. It’d make a far better Onimusha game than a Souls game. Low and behold, difficulty (IE: Time wasting BULLSHIT)…

I’d honestly say it’s more like Onimusha than Dark Souls at this point. Especially with the tweaks they did after the Alpha. It’s punishing, like old Onimusha games were, but the game wants you be AGGRESSIVE. It doesn’t want you hiding behind the block button like some of these “git gud” kiddies say. You have parries…

When you run out of stamina and your bar goes red, it only locks you out of attacking. You can still evade. But if you get hit, block a hit, or something like that *THEN* you stagger. Same goes for the enemies. It’s also worth nothing that you can still Ki Recover while your bar is red. So feel free to spam a combo,…

Now that’s thinkin’ with ye dipstick, Jimmy!

Oh my god. I haven’t seen a fanboy war this intensive since Genesis vs SNES. They’re even busting out the math. “NO THIS GAME HAS BIGGER NUMBERS, IT’S BETTER!!!”.

No. That’s exactly what they’re saying, translated into corporate speak to avoid any possible association if Nintendo decides to crack down hard on re-uploaders.

I’m out of the loop. The last and only challenge I ever did was the Chuck Norris Challenge. Back in the beta, if you used Chuck Norris as a seed, it plopped you down in a world near a small circle of sand. Under that sand was a sinkhole that emptied into a river, that led through ravines, caverns, lava, and down near…

Damn, Ash. Calm yo tits.

There’s never a bad reason to have a justice boner my friend. JUSTICE IS NEVER WRONG. *KAAAW*

I never got that deep into MMOs back when I was a teen, but I remember conversations with a friend who was a raid team leader in WoW. Just...No. It sounded like a full time manager’s job. Make sure everyone has grinded top tier equipment, help them grind, make sure they practice the motions to avoid attacks, how to…

I’d watch it once, then just mash X to skip it, like I do everything else that pops up before the actual game. Not that big of a deal.

I started back in the day with Demon’s Souls. Once Bloodborne hit it was instantly my favorite. The Lovecraftian lore and world building, the game play style. Everything. When ds3 hit I quit after a few hours and went back to Bloodborne because all ds3's mechanics did was make me want Bloodborne 2, not dark souls 3.

Hey now, that would be admitting HE’S the one at fault. That’s a hard thing to do.

You can, if you don’t mind cruising through the neighborhood doing less than 5MPH.

Clearly we know where he got his Pokemon skills....

Is it underrated? Reeeaaallly? I remember when it came out, pretty much everyone agreed. It’s a shit single player game, but a really fun co op game.

I’m straight up honest. “Uhhh, why are you taking a picture of my bird bath?” / “oh, there’s a pokemon sitting there. Just gonna nab it and be on my way, if that’s alright.”. Even if they don’t know what it is, they seem to find it pretty cool when you explain it. Got a cop to download and try it out when he asked me…

I know. At first I was just “It’s Pokemon. Everyone knows Pokemon.”, but then...LITERALLY everyone is playing it. Blows my mind.

In my town, Instinct is top dog, with a lot of casual Goers in blue. I met a bunch of Instinct at a graveyard one night, but ultimately decided to join Valor. Seems like no one else here is Valor

I have a 1070 hitting later in the week, still figuring out what I’m going to benchmark it with. Maybe total warhammer, which I lock at 30 solid. Maybe it’ll do good with space hulk acension. Currently getting 20 on that game. Seriously, whats up with unity games running like ass? Wasteland 2 runs like a dysfunctional…
