I kind of like those Voodoo chips but I can only eat one or two at a time and I never even finish the small bags. they're just so overpowering

ease your way into it slowly with 15 diet root beers a day

 

[shortsFortallPeople]

I will continue to not play the Souls games, I suppose.

well, if you saw the Breaking Bad for DS then you would've caught that but just in case: Demon's Souls is basically stages, like these old castlevania games, only you need to complete them from beginning to end in one shot. No checkpoints, no lives, you need to make it all the way to the end of the stage AND kill a boss in one go.

Of course there are plenty of differences, like you can level up and you have healing items, but on the surface they're really similar

I actually did play through most of Dark Souls 1 when it came to PC. There's a lot to love, but the games just aren't for me.

Austin was saying that the chat was complimenting their colors and that people could distinguish Vinny's black shirt with his black laptop, and Austin ended with "No crushed blacks."

Vinny sort of sheepishly said "Thaaat's...my favorite movement............Take that Donald Trump."

Austin nearly *headdesked*.

It's OK for him to say that since he's a person of color... blindness.

Savage defeat.

Also, the chat has given up.

OK, I give up. The server is just not there.

Dark Souls is different than Demon's as it's more like an open world compared to Demon's, which has a series of stages you have to conquer.

I kinda wish they went back to Demon's wrt its hub and spoke design and single life playthroughs. That game was more intense than like 90% of the horror games I've played.

One of the reasons I enjoyed Bloodborne a lot more than Demon's Souls was that the paths back to the boss fights were a lot more reasonable.

Like i said earlier, he's a pushover if you've got some SOTN experience coming into it

Man it's crazy relistening to old podcasts where they praise telltale for releasing games on time and talking about hl ep2 as if 3 is around the corner

I need them to watch the replay that shows off Maria's secret moves and see them lose their minds.

In recent years, Brad's increasing adoration of getting random in-game item from chests has become worrying.

If brad had grown up in the 60s he'd be that uncle you have who spends all day at the races.

Alex's reaction is the best.

I think it's pretty fascinating that some of the more vicious f2p mechanics and XP loops like in Destiny or The Division still work for people with decades of video game experience. You would think it would lose some of its effectiveness, but sometimes it feels like the opposite.

 

[shortsFortallPeople]

Is vinnyvania still happening? If not, what progress was made?

It very much depends on the person. Such things do absolutely nothing for me.

 

[CoolBatteryCharge]

I'm sure I've played the Rondo SOTN opening more than the base SOTN itself.

The most fun to be had in that game is the Richter playthrough, so I don't blame you.

 

[Death Metalist]

Castlevania peaked with Simon's Quest imo
