    Capcom Monster Hunter: World - pre-release thread

    Bleah, Zinogre looks like the monster equivalent of a 7-color JRPG sword with covered with gems, skulls, horns, and random pointy parts. Tigrex's charge legitimately activates some cave man predator-fear part of the brain. I like the monsters that still seem like plausibly natural predators...

    Capcom Monster Hunter: World - pre-release thread

    Some weapons have a dodge-roll but AFIACT it has little or no invincibility compared to DS. Some weapons can block, some can't. You also have to sheathe your weapon to run, and unsheathing attacks have different properties so sheathing/running/unsheathing ends up being a major part of...

    Capcom Monster Hunter: World - pre-release thread

    Boring/annoying JRPG strategy guide stuff (e.g. mine this thing from this map and add these three other similar easter egg hunt things to make a piece of armor) plus cool boss fights with wrinkles like letting you break parts of a monster's body (e.g. break their horns off, cut their tails off)...

    That Frieza references video actually kinda makes it seem like ASW doesn't do outlandishly 2D facial expressions. Frieza breaking out into crazy Joker faces is part of his character. Although they might just not have hit that level of polish yet on the character yet, Goku looks more finished.

    Capcom Monster Hunter: World - pre-release thread

    Took like 30 minutes to hack down the hypnotrice in MHFU in the first "high rank" difficulty quest with a 700 damage longsword, and that's a monster that will never hit you and that you get to punish with 1-2 longsword hits after almost every attack it does. Looking at the upgrades that become...

    Dead Cells, an indie roguelite Metroidvania

    Every stat scroll you get in Dead Cells multiplies the derived stat by the square root of 2 (so, every two stat scrolls you get doubles the derived stat). Meaning, your HP when you have health 5 is double what you have at health 3, health 7 has quadruple the HP of health 3, etc. So, stats are...

    From Software The Dark Souls Discussion Thread

    LGK is also a really good fight on an SL1 run, setting aside his player invasion gimmick. His stats and HP aren't really good enough to stand up to the typical character at that point in the game so you just kind of speedbump over him normally, but it's a good boss design around the gimmick of...

    What's the right way to do that statue room? The couple of times I've done it I used the same basic exploit where I lured all the invincible knights onto the ground floor of the spikes room, then ran around them and climbed the ladder so I could leisurely go break the statues. Seems kinda cheap...

    KickStarter Bloodstained - Koji Igarashi's new metroidvania game

    It's really missing some dynamic lighting.

    I'm still on the lowish-end I guess. Carrying stacks of potions and a stack of flashbangs still feels like cheating. Wonder if they'll have mouse aiming on the ranged weapons in MHW PC.

    Capcom Monster Hunter: World - pre-release thread

    I can't remember the specifics of DMC upgrades. Is it like level 1 guns, level 2 guns? I remember retrying that fight with the two headless guys with dual swords in DMC3 for hours. If it were MH I think I'd have tried to make a better sword. I remember the red currency items in DMC3 but not what...

    Weird, she said it doesn't have throws?

    Capcom Monster Hunter: World - pre-release thread

    Whut, MH is like 75% RPG. Just because there's technically no XP doesn't mean it's seriously different from the RPG power-uppah structure. What do you think, "Use loot to get more loot to get more loot" is about? And the (extremely) different weapons are analogous to classes or builds in an...

    Nah, they nerfed the hell out of it. It's just OK, and you spend a large % of the time playing a normal melee character except with an infusion and buff. Easiest is probably rob+flynn with a rapier, you ain't gotta learn shit before things die to spam.

    Hopefully they dumb it down from their usual standard. Just looking at the options in the menus of practice mode for BB or Xrd is enough to make me, a person that can accurately describe what "meaty" and "chicken blocking" mean, look for something else to play.
