That's sad. I had a feeling it would be bad, but I think it's worse that it might be good.
Reading the performance thread, it sounds like a mostly decent port that has some nasty bugs that are affecting a chunk of people. Exactly how big that chunk is is hard to tell given those that hit bugs are more likely to comment.
The only super serious thing I've seen in there that might be widespread is micro stuttering on save. Hopefully that gets sorted quickly.
Already sounds to be a better port than DKS1, but that wouldn't be tough.
That's the only thing that happened to me after 2 hours.
Yeah, that's a nasty bug. Not gamebreakinig nasty, but nasty. Given it seems decently widespread and fairly serious, I expect it to get patched out fairly quickly.
I know those words but that sentence makes no sense.
Upper midcard is turning into something crazy.

So what missions to you guys think they'll complete by the end
I wonder if Drew will tackle the Quiet mission

That last Quiet mission is maybe the most poorly-designed mission I've ever encountered in a video game. It took me like 6 hours of trying to finish. What a piece of shit.

After 3 hours and 2 boss fights on max settings, I appear to have gotten lucky and am not experiencing the bonfire crash bug on PC.

I really hope Dan remembers that mission is optional because Drew has zero fucking chance of finishing it.

Would a 960 run it max?

Early benchmarks show the 960 at mid 40 fps at max settings 1080p.
For those having it in here, it sounds like putting lighting on 'Low' is a solution to the bonfire crash bug for a lot of people.
A lot of the reason that mission is fucking trash is because it completely screws over people who build stealth (For the most part, there are stealthy ways that kind of sort of solve it). Drew has been doing lethal combat for a while, so he might have half a chance to not have it be a total mess.
Then again, his track record even in lethal comb is... not great.

The DLC is muuuuuuch better than the other areas, but i wouldn't say the back half is garbage. That title is reserved for 80% of Dark Souls 2 main game :V

So uh
Should I get Ratchet and Clank
or Dark Souls 3
I really like Ratchet and Clank
And the last Souls game I beat was Demons souls

Sounds to me that you'd enjoy Ratchet and Clank more. Both those games seem like they're very good versions of what you'd expect from those series.

I really wanna try out dark souls 3 though because the magic system looks better than the limited paper stuff from dark souls
ahhhhh
And I never finished dark souls because that's when I was deep into league of legends

You probably can't go wrong with either. Both sound great.

I'm surprised at the great reception R&C has been getting
Insomniac are still great devs and the last retail traditional Ratchet product (IIRC) was Future which was also awesome. Everything they've shown about R&C looked visually stunning and going back to the series' roots was something that was kind of needed even though Future was awesome. I'm not surprised it's a great game. It's just kind of a weird under hyped thing since it's a budget priced reboot.

Why? The series has been historically well reviewed (typically 8's). The worst reviewed games were the atypical ones (i.e. the co-op game and the tower defense game), but even those were not given terrible reviews for the most part. What I am most interested in is if the reception the game is getting will translate to the movie. While I don't plan on seeing it, I can't wait for the reviews to hit. I think it has a chance to be the first video game movie to get a fresh rating on Rotten Tomatoes, especially if the story doesn't pander to children.

I'm sad Drew never upgraded any of his hands. He would love Rocket Hand.

I ended up getting Souls 3...gonna make a Priest...hopefully there's a God's Wrath equivalent..
You could just buy the Witcher Expansion and just get the best that game has to offer in 6-8 hours or so.
Not that The Witcher 3 isn't worth finishing, but if you don't want to invest the time, Hearts of Stone is arguably better than anything in the main game.

My regrets are ever growing
And now I got killed by those cloaked guys before the boss, rip 600 souls
I did this cool thing where I staggered him in his goo form, but then I panicked and rolled around while he was stunned
