I’m on my second attempt at playing Dark Souls 1 on PC. I know it’s a meme but holy moly does this game not give a fuck about you. Lately I’ve been trying to play games on harder difficulties and avoid guides in order to be forced to utilize every mechanic, but Dark Souls is breaking me.
The lack of direction the player is given and unforgiving gameplay is too much for me though. I’ve resorted to looking up tips on combat, builds, and items, and how to progress now and again.
Overall though it’s a lot of fun. The enemies are so well designed and every time I see a miniboss waiting for me in the distance my butt clenches, which is a very fun experience that not many games are able to deliver.
I still think there are aspects of the game that are needlessly frustrating. Some enemies seem like a cruel joke, mainly the freaking ghosts that move and attack through walls. Also I wish there was more direction, NPCs I could talk to or something that would give me ideas on where I should be going. Wandering around and dying repeatedly is only fun for so long imo.
I’m glad a game like this exists for people who are not whiny wusses like me though.
It took me three attempts for me to finally enjoy it, and get through the whole game, I feel you. The game’s high barrier to entry is its biggest flaw.I’m glad you’re enjoying it
I don’t know how far you’ve gotten, but unless you’re reasonably far through the game, you should not go to see those ghosts. Try going back to the start, and then upwards.
I want a mod that makes it a little easier to get to the logistics robots faster, but without a complete overhaul, the extensive mods are too much for me…m
My partner and I are chest-deep into BG3. We had a third teammate, but he got too busy with life…and wasn’t really a team player to begin with. But we’re absolutely loving the game and have happily become unproductive members of society since we started playing a few weeks ago.
I just started with oil (for the first time getting that far and made my first train too!) and I can’t help but want to start over again from scratch to make everything cleaner…
The factory must grow, yes but THERE MUST BE ORDER
I also made a circuit system which was actually surprisingly simple. I only did it to make it so that it would leave some oil behind in a tank instead of pushing it all into the train, but it was pretty cool
It takes a little time to start introducing you to the unique parts, it feels a little afraid to alienate traditional shooter fans but once it gets rolling nothing is quite like it.
I’d start with Bioshock. It’s definitely worth playing, but probably a bit dated feeling now. I really like HZD, it’s excellent, but God of War is by far my favorite. Combat is incredible, story is an awesome “not revisionist history” of mythology, and Chris Judge as Kratos is just 👌
I’m loving it. It’s honestly just better in every way than the first. I know a lot of people had performance issues when the game first came out, but I’m about halfway through it right now and haven’t had a single problem. So I personally would highly recommend.
