That's pretty fucked if true.

Bosses are one of the most important parts of a Souls-like.

>>376923910
Gameplay look like it might be alright. Leans more towards general hack and slash but also with the souls rip-off combat that people are attributing to it. It's going to have to be great for people to like it though. Lords of the Fallen already makes the studio look like shite, and the people that are interested want it to be Sci-Fi Souls 1:1.

It didn't look that clunky during the Giant Bomb quicklook. It looked *fun*. but lords of the fallen sucked ass because of the combat so I'm probably not buying at launch. got lords of the fallen for free on PSN and felt that it was the right price for that game.

Not a thing. Shilling is always unwelcome. Buy a fucking banner if your game needs sales

Totalbiscut gimmick, at least from what I seen is to be a pro consumer mouth piece. But he doesn't play games like most of /v/. He dicks around in them and goes into the options menu and checks out how many sliders and checkboxes are in a game. I remember watching a review and that was like the bulk of the video.

Got my PS4 copy early (godbless Gamestop for once) and its waaaaay better then Lords of the Fallen which I rate 65/100. Normal trash mob encounters are way more difficult then in Dark Souls (only played Ds1, Ds3 & BB). Crafting is motivating, the targeting for your armor and weapon drop is cool. The 3rd energy bar is a great addition. The combo system from Lotf is also back which I missed in Bloodborne and Dark Souls 3 after playing Lotf.

Looks like an improvement over LotF, and its speed makes me excited. A DS/BB clone can only be so bad anyway.

what? what the fuck are you even talking about retard? are you just throwing buzzwords around? do you know what "rehash" means? so every fucking game in history with more than 5 bosses just "rehashes" the same ones over and over? holy shit why are people as stupid as you allowed to use a computer? hang yourself

I cannot for the life of me take Souls clones serious. This game tries so hard but still doesn't know what makes Souls good. It sure as hell isn't the mediocre combat.
>>
>>376929019
Playtime is around 7hrs and difficulty feels like Bloodborne tier level if you get what I mean. You can heal yourself with your energy you generate with hitting stuff (the finishers use the same energy), feels alot like the Bloodborne this way. Also I never block and always dodge, the jump seen in the combat trailer seems useless as fuck I would always dodge. I only saw one boss and managed to beat him after 2 tries.

That reveal really surprised me. Especially later on when you learn how Creo selects candidates and who its jobs are marketed to.

A lot of games try to improve the combat; Nioh, The Surge and games like Bloodborne make really interesting deviations on the standard formula.

>The game lacks different enviroments though
I dunno, the theme is pretty consistent due to the setting. But the difference between say, ops, R&D, and launch control are pretty noticeable. I think ng+ might also change the environments a bit too, I noticed the prologue had some differences from ng.

There was literally 4 good boss fights in the entire of DS1 (including dlc), every other fight ranged from terrible to mediocre

Bloodborne > DaS1 >>> The Surge > DaS3 >>> DaS2

The environments get kinda stale, but they look great and it's a really cool experience having it all take place in one specific area, not like a disjointed uninspired mess that was DaS3.

Any other games with this type of gameplay, preferably RPG? This has got me hooked.
>>
>>376932963
>boss fights make a game

LOL. THey can be cool, sure, but the pacing in this game is very different to a Souls game. Usually bosses at as a 'reward' for reaching the end of an area. There's no 'areas' per say in this game- it all takes place in one area.

Bosses in the Souls games aren't even that good, anyway.

>>376934270
>There's no 'areas' per say in this game- it all takes place in one area.

I think this is misleading. Just because its so seamless and all part of the factory doesnt mean there arent areas.

For instance I dont consider the lower burg part of the upper burg in das1 just because how close they are physically and how similar they are. Same goes for the upper burg and the parish.
All 3 are fundamentally the undead burg with similar enemies just slightly mixed up.

What about the trains you ride to different areas after boss fights, did I just hallucinate those while watching streams?
>>
>>376923910
I just watched it on stream

The guy was doing a single one handed heavy attack over and over again a boss that was the most boring, uninspired typical "mech" i have ever seen

he used 1 attack for 5 minutes straight doing no damage to the enemy and then died to a move that he couldn't see coming because the camera was inside the enemy

edgy teens who dont want their cool '''niche''' game copied and brought into the light more, even though it happens with literally every other genre. (what are doom clones)

I'm hearing it's allot better then LOTF . Never played it though so idk what better could be. The new game + though is something dark souls never even thought of trying.

Okay but it's not out yet. So fuck off Shillborne
>>
>>376936374
the game is much harder than any souls and you die super quick

but it's still complete shit. like 5 enemy types, and 3 of them are just dudes in armor. 5 bosses and one of them is just a tanky regular enemy that summons the first boss. literally 1 environment. 4 or 5 weapons. no magic or ranged options. it's a joke

All my footage is what I've been using for review purposes, but I'm enjoying it because;

there's some nice movement mechanics; dashes, jumps, ducks, etc.

the 'slow' swings (any faster and they'd look ridiculous imo) are very well animated and have a nice landing crunch to them, imo disable the slow-mo effect (nice touch this is an option)

the way it does deviate from souls, it does it in interesting ways-- the way you 'level up' (plug in chips that basically allow you to tailor how you wanna play), targeting limbs for loot give more cannonfodder enemies meaning, etc.

anyway ill be back when review embargo lifts because im ready for the shit storm lol (because from talking to other reviewers, the consensus seems to be mostly positive, the number 8 seems to be on everyones mind...) anything i say now will be a bit repetitive considering it'll all be laid out properly.

Dark Souls is trash. Half the bosses are just copy pasted mechanics.

From what I've seen in videos, it duplicates the gameplay aspect of weighty souls combat, but gives their own unique additions of location hit damage for loot drops, and finishers.

It's a Sci-fi Souls game we always pined for Fromsoft to make, as for if the setting or story is good? Hard to tell without playing it first.

nay
>>
>>376939885

Not him, but what I can tell from TB's video of it, it allows location hit damage for better loot drops, and a IMO, balanced approach to death finishers.

The setting drapes are changed for a sci-fi experience, so that will be interesting to see.

does it do enough different to carve its own identity within the style? or is it just Dark Souls but a bit slower in a sci-fi suit?

Kinda surprised. I guess LotF had abysmal sales for them to drop it.
>>
>>376929514
>and they fuck it so hard with the industrial crap and only melee weapons, no firearms
The only way to make sci-fi souls with firearms is to make them all projectile based like DOOM, but then it would make no sense, because why not just use guns instead.

Not to mention that soulsshitters only know how to deal with telegraphed attacks, not how to dodge projectiles.

Wait seriously? Like entire areas or small side areas for additional challenge? Might as well have new bosses too.

>>376942507
The fact the devs have gave out preview copies to Souls youtubers and have shilled it on these boards while trying to bash the Souls games.

Trying to piggy back on other peoples cred. Devs are faggots.
>>
>>376942489
You are too easily baited my friend.
>>
>>376941137

What a coincidence, I loved Vagrant Story. It was ATB based game though, it's gameplay is nothing like Dark Souls, but it's setting and item lore setup, are very similar. The Surge however has very similar gameplay to a Souls game however, thus the comparisons, and the note of new additions to the Souls formula of gameplay, even if those new additions are concepts that are old, they're new to the Souls gameplay formula.

>>376942691
>players like 3rd person action games with resource management like stamina and enemies that kill easily

How is this a surprise? Faggots that compare nioh to souls are gay too. They are soo wildly different once you move beyond 3rd person action game with varying attack strengths.
