From Software 'n such
Re: From Software 'n such

Yeah Bethesda can suck a fuck. Games are ass AND run like ass.Blinge wrote:I'm on a pro but I can't think of any problems i had in bloodborne.

Bloodborne not so much bugs as just overall performance. I made sure to say runs well in my initial post there.
Re: From Software 'n such
I'm definitely hype for this one, Demons is my second favorite of their games (the first being bloodborne). I've never been disappointed by Bluepoint either, since their changes tend to be purely graphical and respectful of the original releases.
I'm also pretty hype to play Bloodborne again via backwards compatibility, hopefully locked in 60fps with faster load times.

They did the Shadow of the Colossus remake and Uncharted 1-3 Remaster among other things for anyone here that doesn't follow modern gaming much.
I will plat Bloodborne again if it gets another release.

Look at Dragon God in the trailer. You know it's an absolute LIE!
Re: From Software 'n such
I think it's obvious enough why Demon's Souls is great that you could make a pretty solid remake without From having to be involved.
The style is kind of different from the more "subdued" vibe you usually get from From Software games, but it still looks very solid from the teaser. I probably won't play it, becuase the original game is already great as it is, but I'm glad that it's happening.

Re: From Software 'n such
Quite surprised it's PS5 only - though they've undoubtedly grown in popularity, FROM games are still hardly system-sellers, I'd have expected this to be PS4/PS5-enhanced.

Re: From Software 'n such
While I'd love to see it, I wouldn't trust anyone to make it other than From themselves. But, I'm satisfied letting From keep their focus on Elden ring while Bluepoint puts Demon's Souls back online for us with a new coat of paintBlinge wrote:Yeah that's a problem for me haha.

Re: From Software 'n such
I agree with this, but it's on PS3, a console that otherwise has no reason to exist for me. I can actually just throw all my PS3s out now.Sumez wrote:I think it's obvious enough why Demon's Souls is great that you could make a pretty solid remake without From having to be involved.

Not so sure about this one. Look at the monster/boss designs... they've been incredibly westernized and have lost a lot of what made them slightly 'disturbing'. Now they look more like boring, western-designed, blizzard-esque monsters.
Re: From Software 'n such
I didn't get that feeling in the slightest. The designs that were shown looked like the originals to me, and I just replayed DS a few months back so it's pretty fresh on my mind.kid aphex wrote:ACSeraph wrote:since their changes tend to be purely graphical and respectful of the original releases.

Re: From Software 'n such
I don't understand how it illustrates your point, your picture is just more detailed and otherwise the same basic design? Hell if anything, the new one looks more disturbing, the original is kinda goofy even.

<S.Yagawa> I like the challenge of "doing the impossible" with older hardware, and pushing it as far as it can go.

Re: From Software 'n such
I dunno if the designs have changed, but the lack of murk and digital Vaseline is disappointing. Currently playing the Dark Souls remaster and it's a little too clean, but this looks on a whole other level. It would be nice if there's an option to wodge some of it back on, like M2 provide on their ports with the scanlines and suchforth
Re: From Software 'n such
didnt' ds1 remastered use pretty much the same assets just up res them?

Re: From Software 'n such
Yeah they look really similar, and a lot of it can can be mitigated by just setting the brightness as low as it asks you to at the beginning. Uprezzing is always going to change the character of the game somewhat, even if this is a fetishistic aspect.Blinge wrote:didnt' ds1 remastered use pretty much the same assets just up res them?

Re: From Software 'n such
ey bithc you never told me what build/gear you were using when ds3 was ez for you first time m8
..I was gonna attempt to recreate your play when I return to Lothric

Re: From Software 'n such
Knight, mainly strength, HP and stamina, bit of dex maybe to wield certain weapons? Sorry to not be more specificBlinge wrote:ey bithc you never told me what build/gear you were using when ds3 was ez for you first time m8
..I was gonna attempt to recreate your play when I return to Lothric
I did find my list of Boss deaths if you want to rake through:
Tutorial 1
Dog thing 0
Tree 3
Crystal Sage 2
Deacons 1
Abyss Watchers 1
Wolnir 4
Pontif 0
Yhorm 4
Aldrich 7 (this one was orrible)
Dancer 1
Old demon king 0
Dragon Armour 11 (favorite boss by far lol)
Final bosses 8
Definitely not a no-miss superplay, though I definitely died at least 20 times to O&S and 4 kings each in DS1. This list doesn't include the 10 odd times I died on the knights in the cathedral before the pontiffs, for example.
Now playing the remaster. Definitely easier than the first time. 'Stuck' on the gargoyles despite leveling up my axe. I don't want to get in another scuffle, but the way I play these games definitely means I have a harder time with 1. However I am playing them at such a low level I don't think you could read much in to it.
Re: From Software 'n such
I will try to ignore the listing to save future me from having a bad time.
Was it sword and board? Or two handing mainly?
Big ol' STR weps? or like, medium size longsword etc?
another scuffle? nah i just, can never quite decipher what you're saying. Although now you're actually using up-to-date experiences I'm more inclined to listen..
Are you fighting the Gargs unlocked, for the full range of motion?

If you can't see the difference... I... I don't really know what to tell you.
Obviously, as remakes of games from previous generations occur, an increase in fidelity is going to put the responsibility on artists and designers to 'up-res' and fill in the 'gaps' of older designs. In this case... I am not a fan.
It's FROM SOFTWARE, not Blizzard.
It's Demon's Souls, not Darksiders.
Re: From Software 'n such
i agree, it does look way more western and darksiders/blizzard style.

You're sure to be in a fine haze about now, but don't think too hard about all of this. Just go out and kill a few beasts. It's for your own good. You know, it's just what hunters do! You'll get used to it.

Re: From Software 'n such
I swear i've seen another soulslike just like this? With the same isometric angle.
How are people getting on with soulslikes anyway?
I've been meaning to play many of them, but haven't touched one.
( oh i guess you could count Hollow Knight )
Was gonna give Let it Die a go.

Re: From Software 'n such
Did anyone play Lords of the Fallen? Keeps dropping to around three quid on Xbone and PS4, got to be worth a punt at that price?
I played the opening hour or so I think, if it remains a decent cover version I'll give it a proper go.

I'll get around to it some day but interested to hear your thoughts in the meantime.
Re: From Software 'n such
All I heard is that The Surge (from the same devs) is a much better investment. I bought it quite some time ago for a similar bargain price, but never got around to starting it...
