Thanks. I'll play it some more eventually. I have Shadow of Mordor then Dragon Age: Inquisition to play first. I actually paid for those.

Sure. Just make sure you play it before TW3 comes out so you can understand the story, it's a bit complex. Btw, i played it a little today just to remember it.

You know the arena right at the beginning where it automatically suggests the difficulty you should play by testing your skills in combat? It suggested i played it in Dark, which is equivalent to very hard. So it goes to show the combat system can be effective if you vary your attacking tactics.

What i like about it is that it pretty much forces you to use everything you have at your arsenal. Not every RPG does that. You can beat Skyrim playing the same way from beginning to end. The Witcher series is much more tactical oriented.

@Zacheryah you probably know by now this is the same makers of Dark Souls. What do you think?

Yeah, can't wait for that. DS1 was great, DS2 was good but not as great as 1. Apparently it was a different creator, the creator of 1 has made bloodborne however so

I am truly looking forward to The Order: 1886 in a few weeks, and Bloodborne in March.

Judging by this video do you guys think it looks a bit easier, or should i say less harder than the DS series? Maybe it's just the combat system that's more fluid?

I understand DS fans praise the game for that reason but personally I would rather have a challenging but not a die-every-10-seconds-and-go-back-to-the-beginning-to-do-it-all-over-again kind of game.

It's not only frustrating but time consuming. DS can't be beat without the help of walkthroughs unless you're beyond a hardcore nerd and literally have no life.

 

[Salvo]

Yeah but that is half the fun!

Not having a shield makes things interesting.

The order looks good as well.

 

[KB824]

I would much rather prefer a difficult experience with Bloodborne.

I really wouldn't know how else to play a title by From Software any other way

 

[Salvo]

Hopefully it is as memorable as DS1

 

[CrimsonianKing]

Based on this it's probably as difficult but not as frustrating as DS. I can deal with that.

"game director Miyazaki says making players more proactive in combat is one of the key things the team wants to introduce in Bloodborne, a deliberate move away from the defensive engagement he saw many players who played with sword and shield in previous Souls games relied on.

In fact, Miyazaki said players who play passively in Bloodborne would be "overwhelmed", and that they needed to be aggressive at most times.


With aggression comes more death, however, but there may be some relief in that regard (or at the very least some changes). Miyazaki said that while the penalties for dying in Bloodborne had not been finalised yet, he did want the death penalty to be "not too severe this time."

Looking very much forward to it cause

its from the creater of Demon souls and dark souls 1.

Dark souls 2 is a bit running out of idea's, but mostly from a different creator



One thing tho, they sure like that menu style, cause thats practically a direct copy

It took an eternity to download and then another to install. Before going to work i played a little earlier today and hmm... Well, as far as FPS games go, it's... Good, i guess. Won't bother buying it though.

 

[KB824]

Oh man, I can't wait for this.

If there is anyone else out there who is a fan of the Persona series.

 

[Toro_Merda]

Can you guys confirm that Bloodborne will not include a shield?

 

[Lion]

Oh man, I can't wait for this.

Yessss. Finally. Persona 3 was one of my favorites on ps2

That's a good point.

Just started playing GTA V. So far it is vastly more enjoyable than IV.

 

[Lion]

absolutely. it trumps on 4 by a long margin. did u ever play san andreas? it's not as good as that one. neiether in gameplay (heists excluded) , world, or story

 

[AFL_ITALIA]

I have. The flying cars cheat, those were the days

 

[Lion]

this way u can buy the best cars
