Doesn't take much skill to fight shitty AIs and shitty players.
Some are easy to pick up but obviously they are hard to master.

I never got the "VF is boring" meme. You have an infinite amount of ways to move your dudes, and while that obviously takes a lot of time and effort to perfect, button-mashing doesn't necessarily produce results less spectacular than in other fighters.

>>8101
>>8098
The only fighting games I see as being mindless button mashes are CyberConnect ones

>>8104
There's a difference between "game that requires no skill whatsoever" and "games where having no skill might still get you somewhere, despite yourself".

Look at this badass shit you didn't get to see live, you fags!

Hey, sorry for the late response, hours later and all. To answer you though, no multiplayer is almost never down. There are no truly bad rings in Dark Souls 3, so the Bloodbite Ring could be good, but there is an alternative ring which gives resistance to bleed, poison, curse and something else to consider.

Anyway consider pairing that with the Pontiff's Ring, it makes you regenerate hp on-hit, so it's a fairly decent amount of sustain.

>>8068
How do the pontiff rings work exactly, I never got that.

>>8068
Uh, I was talking about DaS1 and I think you are talking purely about DaS3.

Okay, let's rephrase that a bit...

>>8069
The Pontiff rings work via successive attacks, meaning every time you strike multiple times in a row. In the case of the left eye ring, you gain a very minute amount of hp. In the case of the right eye ring, you have an invisible buff that slowly builds up stacks with every attack you make, but quickly falls off (who knows what the internal timer is) once you stop attacking, so if you use fast weapons with both pontiff rings you'll get an advantage pretty quickly. Estoc or Rapier would probably be really good for these. I noticed that the katana was definitely quick enough to keep the buffs going.

Keep in mind that the affects are short-lived and require you to continuously attack in order to not fall off.

>>8070
Yeah because you mentioned DS3 instead of just talking about Dark Souls. You pretty much NEED the Bloodbite Ring to use that scythe to not fucking kill yourself, considering that it does 50 bleed to an enemy and 40 bleed to self.

>>8072
Okay, I'm a little off there.

Instead of "every attack after the first" like I thought, it's a successive number of attacks in as short a window as possible. In the case of the hp gain (which has a chance to full heal the user, apparently), for the Caestus this is roughly 10 regular hits, 8 two-handed (double-punch) hits or 6 strong hits. The affect is invisible.

For the right eye ring's attack buff the affect is visible, and it takes a significantly lower number of hits to activate (5 regular, 4 double punch, or 3 strong hits). This buffs your attack power by roughly 5% per stage, with 3 stages max (+15% attack power).

i have to say this video made me lose faith in humanity. and im not saying that because exaggeration of this sort is a meme, i mean every time i watch this video i remember ecatly where i was, what i was doing, and how strong the wolf's rage was within me. how great the anger was, so great that it actually eroded my soul.

the audacity of it all is encapsulated perfectly in this webm, and from it i am forever reminded that my fellow man would kill anything he thought was good, for something as base and banal and, in the grand scheme of things, useless as money. and the worst part of it is he would enjoy the killing of the good, thinking he did the right thing.

im glad i watched this video again, i was actually considering buying some games like underrail and grim dawn.

fark forgot webm

Bethesda and Valve are doing everything they can to destroy video games.

I hate the massive focus on fucking graphics of all things.

I hate the average joe retards because they are so fucking willing to excuse absolute bullshit.

I hate how half a fucking games budget goes into fucking marketing of all things.

But you want to know whats the best part? I don't give a shit about this generation. The only games that came out after 2013 that i played are Rocket League and a few indie games. I don't even see a reason to replace my toaster PC other maybe playing a few good AAA games like the Witcher series. Hell, my toaster could barely handle some prevoius gen games on lowest settings. That's how shitty it is and yet i still barely feel like upgrading.

>>8059
>I hate the massive focus on fucking graphics of all things.

But, anon, that's been around for as long as we've had the ability to process three-dimensional objects.

If anything, I'd say that the console cycle has, by necessity, slowed shit down because almost all publishers want in on the multiplatform licenses, and therefore even on the off-chance something is developed for the PC from the ground up, the devs have to take into account all the plebs with their Proprietary Toasters.

>I hate how half a fucking games budget goes into fucking marketing of all things

That's a pretty conservative estimate, actually.

>>8000
but i dont remember how to do spoilers here

>>8006
Not only did you forget to do spoilers
YOU DID NOT EVEN POST VIDEO GAMES

BUMP

I'm flattered that you liked my screenshot enough to use it as the OP image.

wow a website logs my IP???? NO FUCKING WAY! THOSE FUCKING BASTARDS WHAT DO THEY NEED MY IP FOR??

WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOW!!!!!!!!!!!

>>7913
Sorry, I didn't know how seriously you took discussing drama about another website over discussing video games.

>>7914
What's your IP again?

vermintide is one, but i want one that is a l4d clone

Dark Souls series?

>>7891
In DaS just like IRL you're nothing more but a sacrificial good goy who keeps the lie running if you kindle the fire. Also since your body is not that of a god and you're nothing more but a byproduct of the Furtive Pygmy one is right to assume that kindling the flame is not the world's most noble, but slowest suicide. Nope, it's rather instantaneous and extremely painful.

>>4879
but monster hunter sucks.

I don't mean that in a sly little nudge I mean I find it fundamentally unplayable. Its 2004 era WoW grinding and boss fights. I really tried to give it a chance, got a copy of MH4U and hated it so I thought "okay i'll try it on a console, maybe that'll do it" so I get MH3 on the wii and its even fucking worse.

And shitty fucking memes, oh my god the memes. Every character just spouts annoying 9gag jokes and tells you to gather jaggi testicles. Every fucking time, "oy cunt I need OVER 9000 mosquito cocks. the cake is a lie XDXDXD"

And my only treat is a boss fight which are...honestly pretty fun. I'm not going to subject myself to that torture for 30 minutes of fun though.

Found your problem.

>I have to learn Japanese to enjoy a game

I don't have time to learn that pagan bullshit, I can barely my native language český jazyk let alone nipnogchingchongjingjhou.

That still doesn't change the horrendous grindathon.

>>7874
>I have to learn Japanese to enjoy a game
Not really. Monster Hunter's script is minimal. It's only with 4U when they decided to shoehorn a story in. And unfortunately, the localization was handled by trashtendo of gaijin.

>That still doesn't change the horrendous grindathon.
It's honestly not that bad. Besides, some people love the grind, so maybe you're looking at it from a different perspective.
