    Underrail: The Incline Awakens

    I can't wait for the expansion because once Shotguns are added to the game, Underrail could become one of my favorite crpgs, up there with Fallout 1.

    Your personal top ten

    People mostly criticize SF5 because they hate Capcom. Capcom definitely deserves it but the game itself is really fun, at least when played offline with your friends. I like Street Fighter but each entry has at least one terrible design choice and 5 is no exception but its arguably the best one...

    Your personal top ten

    My Top Ten but in no real order because I like different games for different reasons.

    From Software Dark Souls 3

    I do think the FP system in 3 was absolutely not well thought out and is directly worse than the Spell Count system. As it is, DS2 remains the best in regards to Spellcasting.

    Faith characters start off very weak for pretty much the entire first half of game and only become somewhat viable once you get Lightning Blade. You basically have to beat the game before you can actually have a complete Faith character, which is super lame. It's only okay for me because I...

    He's actually kind of fun if your dont use the Storm Ruler...

    Yeah that's something that a patch for Dark Souls 3 around the The Ringed City DLC launch improved on. You just gotta put a sign down and hope for the best.

    Go for it. In fact, there is a set of armor that's perfect for that. It's the Heide Knight Set, it's basically crusader armor http://imgur.com/a/F2God Lightning Infusions scale with faith and lightning element is strong against a lot of things in DS2 AND Heide weapons have innate lightning damage.

    In DS2, Poise also affects you when you get hit while just idling or moving. If you take a hit but have enough poise to withstand the attack, you just get slowed down a bit but are still fully functional. If you don't then you get staggered. The Hyper Armor in 2 applies to most great weapons...

    Yeah. Heavy Armor doesn't feel as effective because poise works differently. I think it's the best handled out of all three. Poise doesn't feel kind-of-sort-of overpowered liked in 1 and it actually exists and works, as it should, unlike 3's poise that is "working as intended".

    What game are you wasting time on?

    I'm playing through Pyre at the moment. it's not quite what I expected but I really like this game. I was pretty skeptical about the weird sport-like gameplay but it's actually very fun and it fits in very well with the story. The story itself us really good so far with great characters and...

    Demon's Souls completely playable on PC right now.

    If only my PC wasnt a toaster, no Demon's Souls for me. CPU: amd fx-4300 GPU: 750ti Can you lower the resolution to 720p or lower for better performance or is the emulation pretty static right now?

    Should have used Lightning as he is weakest to that. A lightning infused Heide Knight Sword buffed with Sunlight Blade will cut him down quickly.

    DS3 is the most unoriginal, safe, and boring game in the series. It feels like a step down from both DS2 and Bloodborne. It's too linear compared to its predecessors and has terrible build variety. It's still fun but I have the least desire to replay it.
  15. Crimson_Striker

    From Software The Dark Souls II Megathread™

    My order goes Demon's > DS1 > DS2 > Bloodborne > DS3. I'm not saying any of these are better than the other, they're all great, it's just that some have more qualities I like than others. Objectively, Bloodborne is probably actually the best and Demon's the worst. I was reflecting on this...
