What the deal with EA Play? I see their subscription prices and I’m not doing that. Then below that I see the game for $3.99 CAD. Can I just get the game that way and not deal with any extra EA stuff?
I would actually say Witcher 3 is good for that. There’s like 100 smaller quests you can do in 5-10 minutes each. Some of the main storyline quests (which are marked as such) might take 20 or 30 minutes when you’re ready for them. It also has imo one of the best quest tracking systems I’ve seen, as well as best inventory system (sorting, yay) so you don’t have to remember everything after time away from playing.
Dark Souls games can also be played that way - from one bonfire (checkpoint) to the next is usually around 5 to 10 minutes depending on how you play.
First time playing DS1. I’m trying to keep it mostly a blind first playthrough, but I have had to look up help after trying my best and giving up in a few spots - including those archers.
Like how I wandered all the way down to Tomb of Giants extremely early, no lantern drop, no Lordvessel. The Pinwheel fight was so easy that I thought I must be going the right direction.
That your first time with Dark Souls? I played it for the first time on that remaster a couple of years back. I remember those goddamn Anor Londo archers being maybe the only thing in the game that pissed me off so much I had to quit and come back. Damn near EVERYTHING in that game feels “tough but fair” e
Dark Souls Remastered. Just hit the halfway point (Anor Londo), upgraded to Great Scythe +15 and things are starting to look up. Now the toughest opponent I’m encountering is gravity.
I completed the Steam 100% achievements for Dark Souls 2 and 3 so decided it was time to try Dark Souls Remastered. So far I think I’m spoiled by the other two games because DSR feels so tedious without bonfire warp. I’m trying to keep my first playthrough mostly blind, but this game does not really seem designed to make that possible. Luckily spoiled the part about going to Tomb of Giants too early and having to backtrack, but I did wander far into Catacombs right after the Gargoyles fight. It’s becoming more enjoyable as I level up and have switched main weapon to Great Scythe, though. Hoping I warm up to it more like I did with DS2 after the initial difficulty.
I’ve also been playing Fae Tactics. It’s surprisingly unique and satisfying with some combo mechanics and customizability. Definitely worth checking out if you like tactics style games.
