Oh please, the PS3 was even worse when it came to installing games, because there are games where you have to install ,then wait for it to copy the data, and then finally play it. I remember my first year in college when the fat PS3s were still a thing, and it's nearly took 45 minutes for Devil May Cry 4 to install. I was hanging out in somebody else's dorm. It took Ninja Garden Sigma about 25 minutes to install and load.
The only DLC I'd say is worth the purchase is the 3 mission "Alicorn" arc. It's basically a side campaign taking place in the middle of the main one but it's a lot of fun, but a bit harder then the main game
Ah, cheers, it did come with the extra missions and some other stuff fortunately, it's just I prefer to try and get a game in one single purchase without having to think about there being more content squirreled away behind more purchases as it just feels more "tidy" and manageable I guess. But is easily ignored if not missing much. It did come with the very first game though! Which could've done with some HD touching up on the subtitles to match the rest of the visuals. Not sure why those were abandoned.
If you noticed, they took a lot of combat and enemy AI design from Bloodborne. DS3 is faster paced compared to 1 & 2.
I've not played Bloodborne, but have seen enough of it's imagery and gameplay to agree, DS3 is much faster than DS1 and 2, and DS3's Psycho Christ enemies definitely belong in BB. Come to think of it, another enemy that feels eerily out of place is the Fat Church Ladies that give fire hugs and smack me with their books (one day, I'll visit the wiki and find out what enemies are actually called; ) she's got that whole "Gothic Victorian" vibe that's prevalent throughout BB.
Did you manage to get the one glowie that’s hanging out on the edge of a roof outside, kinda where you go through one of the windows upstairs? I don’t think I ever found a way to get to it and kinda forgot. Then there were all those others scattered around that one rotunda with the big guys and little shits dive bombing you in between.
Evangelists are the enemies you're talking about. And yes, they can go fuck themselves hard with that giant club(mace?) Of thiers. I dread seeing them and try to kite if at all possible.
The ones on crosses are lycanthropes and they felt like bloodborne escapees to me too. Also damn annoying but not as bad as church ladies because lycanthropes are only in that one section. Church ladies, OTOH......
Lycanthropes were pretty lethal but could be rushed down fairly easily. Evangelists were annoyingly spongey and too relentless with their spell readings/castings. The Lothric Red Knights were who put me on edge the most.
Yeah that’s probably where it was. It stood out because it was one of the only things I had no clue how to get to.
Mm. Okay, to clarify, it is definitely a 4x game. You build up your economy, research tech, explore the environment and engage in diplomacy, spying, etc.
Ohhh just wait. The cheery looking peak will turn Dark Soulsy soon enough. Can you guess for whom? Regardless, you’ll probably find a familiar foe relaxing (well, I guess that’s what his definition of standing idly waiting for trespassers to clobber would be), or perhaps grieving a macabre sight.
So far, I agree 100%. My first encounter with the one in the Undead Settlement, I managed to take her out relatively easily; she got off one fire hug and a cheap shot with the magic before I killed her. I didn't realize how powerful she wa until I respawned her and she smacked the shit out of me with that mace/staff, more than halving my health with a single shot. Now, whenever I hear that ominous, measured clanging of that mace/staff when one of them is pacing the area, my butthole puckers a tad.
Why lycanthropes? There's nothing remotely werewolf-like about them. Maybe the claws, but other than that, they're basically a crucifix on crack!
I always thought that section of DS1 was an oversight, like, they intended it to be a challenge, but not the infamously soul-crushing brick wall gamers still talk about as one of the hardest parts of the game almost 10 years later. So they doubled down in DS3, huh? This does not bode well for me...
If you get a close look at them, they have beastial features. Presumably they're turning into feral beasts like so many in the DS3 world.
I demand video evidence. Every YouTube video I looked up in the past, i.e.: searching "Dark Souls Anor Londo Archers Easy," only showed folks skilled in rolling or positioning themselves in just such a way that the pushback from the inevitable arrow to their shield pushed them toward the building as opposed to off of it, neither of which method I ever effectively mastered. I've never seen a method as you've mentioned!
