yeah the cheese/glitch boss kill is a time-honoured tradition of the series, be glad of them on the rare occasions you can get them. the only time i ever killed old king doran he got stuck behind a barrel

i have not once figured a way to get a co-op chalice dungeon. search gets me nothing.

Meta Forksclove-Liebeskind (forksclovetofu), Monday, 17 August 2015 19:04 (nine years ago) link

that was fun, forks.

lil urbane (Jordan), Tuesday, 18 August 2015 03:57 (nine years ago) link

Yeah, thanks! the help was welcome.

Meta Forksclove-Liebeskind (forksclovetofu), Tuesday, 18 August 2015 03:59 (nine years ago) link

i'm kinda near the end, yes?

Meta Forksclove-Liebeskind (forksclovetofu), Tuesday, 18 August 2015 03:59 (nine years ago) link

very near

lil urbane (Jordan), Wednesday, 19 August 2015 14:59 (nine years ago) link

I've killed some angry people, a few dogs and a big thing with a brick. Am I near the end?

woof, Wednesday, 19 August 2015 15:17 (nine years ago) link

okay, beat it. into ng+ prob should've waited and beaten some side quests as this is much harder now. at level 96.

Meta Forksclove-Liebeskind (forksclovetofu), Wednesday, 19 August 2015 15:21 (nine years ago) link

at first ng+ seemed super hard, then much easier. i'm pretty sure this was not due to my skills improving, probably had more to do with going through some chalice dungeons and finding gems that compensated for enemies' increased hp. also you get crazy souls in ng+, so thankfully there is no need to farm for vials and bullets anymore.

lil urbane (Jordan), Wednesday, 19 August 2015 21:39 (nine years ago) link

chalice dungeon rom is some bullshit

am0n, Thursday, 20 August 2015 05:09 (nine years ago) link

first try ;)

lil urbane (Jordan), Thursday, 20 August 2015 14:48 (nine years ago) link

i was watching vids of ppl rushing in and ignoring all the spawns but i had to take it slow and wipe out each wave. got bloodletting on 3rd try, much easier without lock-on. now i'm at ailing loran and lower hintertomb

am0n, Friday, 21 August 2015 16:47 (nine years ago) link

finished hintertomb and ailing loran, now on lower loran. really fun, i might be enjoying this more than the main game. but the infinite spider bell chimes are starting to get rly annoying

am0n, Monday, 24 August 2015 17:14 (nine years ago) link

i did ailing loran with a friend the other day, although it took us long enough to figure out the co-op. it was fun though, the abhorrent beast was a piece of cake with two people.

lil urbane (Jordan), Monday, 24 August 2015 17:20 (nine years ago) link

i got him down to 1/4 but that last phase is just ridic so i used a random co-op for that one. i've also helped ppl using the co-op quick search, seems to take a few minutes to connect either way

dunno why that didn't embed but it's worth a look!

They need to release this on PC when Dark Souls III comes out.

two months pass...

who's up for some Thanksgiving morning DLC action?

Oooh, did not know!

i made a scope for my laser musket out of some (forksclovetofu), Friday, 20 November 2015 21:57 (eight years ago) link

oof going into dlc underleveled is rough or maybe my weapon sux. i did manage to circle all the way back to the first lamp but i died like 50 times

am0n, Wednesday, 25 November 2015 03:49 (eight years ago) link

had this on my shelf for a few months while i worked through other games and now a friend of mine finally got on the ps4 bandwagon. how accessible is multiplayer, compared to previous iterations of the franchise? i'd like to be able to double up as much as possible as we both go through.

INTOXICATING LIQUORS (art), Wednesday, 25 November 2015 15:25 (eight years ago) link

tried the dlc this morning and so far it's everything i could have hoped for. it's definitely challenging-but-fair on my ng+ character, but then i switched to one of the new weapons and started getting wrecked, even after upgrading it (partially because i'm not used to it, and partially because it wasn't doing much damage and these dudes have soooo much health).

expertly crafted referential display name (Jordan), Wednesday, 25 November 2015 16:08 (eight years ago) link

how accessible is multiplayer, compared to previous iterations of the franchise?

the system is a little weird but doable. you can co-op after getting through the first little portion of the game yourself, and then use a password to match up with your friend.

expertly crafted referential display name (Jordan), Wednesday, 25 November 2015 16:09 (eight years ago) link

dope. we had some good times camping the forest in the dark souls days, am looking forward to this

INTOXICATING LIQUORS (art), Wednesday, 25 November 2015 16:16 (eight years ago) link

the dlc is so great, i don't want it to end. just got through the section that's very reminiscent of the Tower of Latria from Demon's Souls.

expertly crafted referential display name (Jordan), Thursday, 26 November 2015 21:42 (eight years ago) link

once i got past the first two bosses this got a lot more interesting. got the sword/hammer thing, am searching for upgrade mats to increase hammer smash. think the level design is better than das2 pretty handily and i love the atmosphere

INTOXICATING LIQUORS (art), Sunday, 29 November 2015 03:15 (eight years ago) link

am0n helped me kill the last dlc boss. :) and i got to finish the fight solo so it felt real.

still haven't beat that one optional boss who's super difficult. other notable randomness:

-if you invade into the room where the twin hunters normally are, you replace one of them (unless the player had killed one first?). did this once and the invadee took off all his clothes and begged for mercy, so i went home.

-once invaded into the Living Failures boss room, before the player had killed the boss. i guess this was a bug? i wish i could have seen what happened if he had entered the fog, but he wouldn't come in and so we fought through the fog door. i died.

expertly crafted referential display name (Jordan), Monday, 30 November 2015 16:15 (eight years ago) link

still need to do optional and final boss. that true about the twin hunters thing?

am0n, Monday, 30 November 2015 23:32 (eight years ago) link

i upgraded the new buzzsaw weapon. i can't wait hehe

am0n, Tuesday, 1 December 2015 17:22 (eight years ago) link

re: twin hunters, i'm not sure. when i invaded the white twin was walking up to the slab/elevator, and there was no black twin. the player also didn't have a co-op partner, so maybe his partner and the black twin had both died, and he was running away to heal (and then i was there when he came back)?

it would be cool if it was a Mirror Knight/Old Monk thing though.

expertly crafted referential display name (Jordan), Tuesday, 1 December 2015 18:18 (eight years ago) link

oh thought that was what you meant. i'd been hoping they were going to add something like that where you invade in another form or as a boss. at least they delivered on the beast mode thing. so theres actually 2 optional bosses, haven't found either yet but both sort of remixes of main game ones?

am0n, Tuesday, 1 December 2015 18:25 (eight years ago) link

yeah i haven't gotten another invasion to work there.

i think there's only the one optional boss (in the church where you fight Amelia in the main game), what's the other?

expertly crafted referential display name (Jordan), Tuesday, 1 December 2015 18:35 (eight years ago) link

thats one. the other is blood starved beast part 2 inside a tunnel past the big river of blood tick things

am0n, Tuesday, 1 December 2015 21:15 (eight years ago) link

maybe he doesn't have a boss health bar, i havent gotten back there yet

am0n, Tuesday, 1 December 2015 21:15 (eight years ago) link

oh yeah he's just a regular baby beast, no boss bar. loved that dark cave.

four weeks pass...

sooo i've gotten super addicted to doing pvp in this game. the more i do it, the deeper and more fun it feels. so much of it is just getting to the point where you're relaxed and patient, same as the main game i guess.

expertly crafted referential display name (Jordan), Wednesday, 30 December 2015 18:52 (eight years ago) link

^an unfortunate and inevitable consequence of this is getting hatemail from children. at least it's better than playing a game with voice chat.

expertly crafted referential display name (Jordan), Monday, 4 January 2016 17:34 (eight years ago) link

xp just recently opened up ability to do a CRF chalice (but screwed the first one up with a mis-click, will get there tonight though) and am salivating at the prospect of farming gems & runes & materials forever in chalice dungeons. i get some folks don't like them, but these things are like crack to me

INTOXICATING LIQUORS (art), Wednesday, 6 January 2016 19:36 (eight years ago) link

previous xp was to compare addictions in bloodborne. i haven't really done any pvp yet (hoping i can still get summons on my 118 guy, am already planning alts)

INTOXICATING LIQUORS (art), Wednesday, 6 January 2016 19:37 (eight years ago) link

nice. i've been doing pretty well in pvp without the really good chalice gems, but every now and then will come across someone who will just decimate me in two hits (or even worse, two bullets).

i took a long break from the chalices but i'm currently trying to beat defiled Amygdala, just to finish that last dungeon.
