Honestly I'd be stoked about a week delay for the guide. Let us discover stuff as a community before everything is spelled out explicitly.

that listh tho

 

[Somnia]

Welp, I'm convinced. Is there a bundle that comes with PS+?

If you haven't bought it yet, gamestop is giving a year of PS+ free with a purchase of TLOU PS4 System Bundle (399) right now, just have to be a member of their card I believe. Shows up on their phone app under in store offers.

 

[ChrisD84]

Anyone else in the UK still looking for a ps4 bundle with the game?

I was waiting for amazon to put one up but after several emails back and forth with them it turns out that they have no idea if or when they will have one available!

The only one I've seen is at Game for £349.99 but I was hoping to find one a bit cheaper than that.

 

[Somnia]

Heh, I think this might be in the wrong department:

I'd love to read a CS textbook that explains how the game was made though.

Just pre-bought this guide because of this thread... gah I haven't bought a guide like this in ages, but the art of it is worth it imo

Haha, love this guy. Good score too!

(No spoilers in the video in case anyone was wondering, it's just the alpha stuff again.)

that listh tho

I don't know what a "listh" is (lisp?), but he's obviously playing a character. I think he's pretty damn funny.

 

[Man]

The Bloodborne Spoiler thread is way too big. What is going on in there? WHAT!?

 

[Primethius]

The Bloodborne Spoiler thread is way too big. What is going on in there? WHAT!?

Pure hype. Come join us!

Most of spoilery bits are behind bars, so no need to worry. But if you don't want to, just know, that... the game is going to be amazing.

 

[Veritigo_X]

The Bloodborne Spoiler thread is way too big. What is going on in there? WHAT!?

It's pretty much a hype thread with some minor spoilers thrown in there. Spoilers are tagged from what I've noticed though.

 

[Deified Data]

I pity the poor, lost souls that have strayed there.

They've already succumbed to the beast plague.

I poked in there for some reason and it's exactly the same as this thread.

Don't go in there.....your thirst will only increase.

 

[AlexIIDX]

Do we know if there are going to be a lot of different clothes/armor? Ive only really seen the standard outfit and that bird one.

Spare yourself from your own curiosity.

You may remove it after you beat the game a couple times.

 

[benjammin]

Just pre-bought this guide because of this thread... gah I haven't bought a guide like this in ages, but the art of it is worth it imo

I did the exact same thing this morning. Last game I bought a guide for was Final Fantasy 13. Which ended up being a massive waste of money as the guide was basically useless for that game. I'm thinking Bloodborne will be different

 

[Randam]

Dark souls is from Miyazaki too tho.

Both demons and dark1 are from Miyazaki but ok.

Please buy it, please! Without your support the game will fail dont do this to us! NOOOOO!

Are you drunk? He is drunk right?

care to elaborate why Dark Souls was "soo bad" ?

Explain.

Is that a definition of shit/troll post or just posting "you know youll be eaten" opinion with wrong facts to begin with? (If, in fact, Randam didn't know that DkS was done by Miyazaki)

Git Gud

Initially I found DK very challenging and just gave up on it( because I kept going to the skeletons) but then I did some research, found the correct way to progress and this game became one of my favourites.

¿Is a joke?

FUCK!
I forgot the "2".
dark souls 2 was bad.
dark souls 1 is one of my most played games ever and in my top 3.

You seem to be pretty invested in shitting on Bloodborne wherever you can:

how is any of that shitting on the game?
lol?

poor randam

yeah.. -_-

 

[MixedBeverage]

The Bloodborne Spoiler thread is way too big. What is going on in there? WHAT!?

You should go read it. I didn't for a while, but then I went in there. It's great. Now, I can read the media impressions thread, the spoiler thread, the trailer thread, and I think there's one other.

Less than 1 week!!

 

[bananafactory]

Lots of those pages are full of us watching and discussing live streams of the game that have been happening at least once a day

 

[Chaos2Frozen]

A game that can beat 90% of other games out there is not 'bad'.

Its gotten so big that they made 2 spoiler threads it seems.

 

[Fallout-NL]

Wonder if (Dutch) boldotcom ships their shit on Tuesday already. Got a meeting on Wednesday (end of the day though, crap) but after that it's all good. Might take Thursday off even... I think I will .

I could not stop laughing

 

[Dion Blaster]

It's funny how video games as a whole have turned shotguns into a close-range only weapon.

 

[Soyongdori]

Dark Souls was pretty bad, I hope this one is much better.

For Firefox or Chrome (possibly for others? but none for mobile). Strongly recommend you filter threads by entering words into the filter rather than manually hiding threads, which can cause performance issues over time.

 

[Primethius]

If you didn't like Dark Souls, there is almost no way you're going to like this game.

 

[Soyongdori]

If you didn't like Dark Souls, there is almost no way you're going to like this game.

But I liked Demons Souls. I have 50/50 expectations for this game.

 

[Jimmyfenix]

[Primethius]

But I liked Demons Souls. I have 50/50 expectations for this game.

Given how similar the gameplay was between Dark and Demon's... I'm guessing it was a matter of location and atmosphere for you?

 

[Veritigo_X]

But I liked Demons Souls. I have 50/50 expectations for this game.

It's going to borrow more from Dark Souls in terms of gameplay. Better adjust those expectations.

And why do you have an Ornstein avatar if you don't like Dark Souls ya big phony!

 

[Kenzodielocke]

Demon's Souls is in one way better than Dark Souls. Characters. They all have a heart of gold.

Everything else is either on par or better in Dark Souls.

 

[Soyongdori]

Areas, blightown fps drop, hex (it was tremendously broken as hell when I first played it, and I still don't like it to this day).

I just didn't like it after playing Demons Souls. To this day, I never bothered to finish the game.

 

[Rich Uncle Skeleton]

It's funny how video games as a whole have turned shotguns into a close-range only weapon.

It blew my mind when I found out that shotguns are used in skeet shooting. Everything I know about guns I learned from video games so that seemed utterly ridiculous to me.

DeS has way better atmosphere

Story and lore aren't as good though

 

[Veritigo_X]

Well, looks like the Future Press strategy guide got delayed. From the Amazon page:

IMPORTANT UPDATE
=> The page count is increased from 400 to 528 pages.
=> The Collector's Edition guide is delayed to include important game changes applied through the Day-One-Update, ensuring that it will be up-to-date and that online-only elements are covered.

Thanks for your patience and understanding.

http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/3869930691/?tag=neogaf0e-20

Good news is we get 128 more pages.

true, but DaS has way better everything else (except netcode)

I smell stat changes on weapons coming up!!

 

[Veritigo_X]

Yeah, I'm perfectly okay with this. Not only do we get a longer guide, we get an accurate guide. I'd take that over getting it a couple weeks early any day. I wasn't planning on using it until after I beat it blind the first time anyway.

 

[i3allistic]

Just put my pre-order in w/BB ...excited yo!

 

[Lemondish]

US here. I'll probably just grab a 1 year card and Shadows of Mordor to hold me over.

Get the last of us bundle if you haven't played it. You'll be glad.

 

[Banzai]

Stupid question, but I'm guessing I'll need ps+ to invade/be invaded or summon/be summoned, huh? I'm not sure if it'll be worth it to resub just for this game...

 

[Ethelwulf]

Stupid question, but I'm guessing I'll need ps+ to invade/be invaded or summon/be summoned, huh? I'm not sure if it'll be worth it to resub just for this game...

I'm not entirely sure but I suppose it will be required.

Yea they say it will arrive on wednesday. I'm holding of for shops breaking release date tho.

This is the most I've seen of the werewolves and, holy crap I like how the werewolves move.

Spoiler

They look like a better fight than the Order 1886 werewolves IMO

 

[Soyongdori]

And why do you have an Ornstein avatar if you don't like Dark Souls ya big phony!

The only redeeming part of the game.
