I'm ready to throw my PC out the fucking window. Dark Souls 3 needs to quit fucking crashing.

How many hours you put into it? I'm at 15 hours and no crashes.

Really sucks you're having issues :/

 

[Jazz573]

Aselia the Eternal Steam page is up. Comes out 29th of this month.

Seinarukana - The Spirit of Eternity Sword 2 Steam page also is up. September release, but the 18+ version is already available on JAST USA's site, if you want that instead.

A damn shame. I've read and watched of a lot of cases with constant bonfire crashes with all classes besides knight and heavy stutter.
I'm very thankful to not have encountered either but it's a shame these issues are present at release.

I thought the knight stuff was only prerelease? Still, it sucks that so many people are having problems, regardless of the reason. Especially when it's such a great game otherwise.

 

[Soulflarz]

Sonic 06 first, please.

I beat sonic 06

Reminder guys
I play bad games because I like to form my own opinions on them

I also beat Time and Eternity, the game with one of my favorite OTs ever.

The recent images posted in this thread contrasting the layout of DS 1 - 3 made me curious about how the connectivity in the games actually look, so I went ahead and made graphs of connections between named locations in each game using GraphViz (hence the often odd placement of nodes which is not based on in-game traversal distances), using the named location pages on the Dark Souls Wikidot wikis as the source. A non-spoilerish version comparing each game, with no location names, but with DLC areas and the start location marked, can be found here. Spoilerish versions for each game, which include location names and also marks the final location, can be found here (1, 2, and 3).

Please note that I've only played DS1, so the graphs are only as exact as the information in the wikis, plus whatever mistakes I made while importing that information. Also, since the resolution is named locations, the figures do not show shortcuts such as the one in DS 1 connecting

Spoiler

Lost Izalith to the shortcut to Quelaag's Domain.

At some point it could be interesting to do 3D versions that takes in-game distances into account, but that would be quite challenging (for me at least).

that's pretty great and totally shows what i was showing

basically dark souls 1 and 2 both have hub areas that are connected to about 4 dungeon chains, the big diference is that in dark souls 1 many of these dungeon chains are connected with each other, while in dks2 they're mostly separate

dks3 is pretty different in that you have always 2 mandatory options to through (tho i'm guessing you can skip some and do them much later?), but only one of those progresses the dungeon chain. so it feels super linear in comparison, despite the level design being super open and intricate

IS THIS REAL???? Messiah just linked me to that and hes saying it is

so bummed this is fake

They are. I really need to get back in to the second game. Loved the first one and its weird story.

cool, i gotta try them out sometime

 

[The Red Wizard]

Why in good concious would you ever want Sonic 06? Please say purely for collection's sake.

What good came out of 06 is already being worked as mods for Generations. http://www.moddb.com/mods/sth2006-project for example.

I'm curious and want to find out how bad it really is. Plus I just want to watch the world burn

 

[Crimsonclaw111]

Lighting is on low and it prevents the bonfire crashes but I'm getting other crashes from time to time.

 

[zkylon]

yea try the lighting thing

i've played the entire game on low and only had one crash, but i also don't have a 700 gpu so maybe that's it

 

[Dragon1893]

I also beat Time and Eternity, the game with one of my favorite OTs ever.

I have this morbid curiosity of trying that game, maybe it'll come to steam someday which would eventually allow me to buy it dirt cheap or in a bundle.

Having a good time RotTR.

 

[Parsnip]

I know it doesn't help anyone, but I haven't had a single crash in Dark Souls 3. Steam says I'm 44 hours in.

Aside from the lighting thing, I've heard people have had luck increasing their virtual memory when trying to prevent the game crashing.


Also since we are talking about Souls, couldn't help but laugh at this.
It's such a perfect Dark Souls moment.

Surviving the mimic just barely, only to get slain by a silver knight you agroed when going up the stairs.


edit: Just noticed the thread title change. Ice cold.

 

[Red Hood]

Why are the Back to the Future episodes listed separately instead of one whole? If necessary as DLC or whatever, but this is.. ugh.

Way back then Telltale was more inline with JaseC's expectations.

I watched a video on Youtube and apparently it still is there. I agree with you though, it's a great Souls game if a bit shorter. Enjoyed all my time.

Don't let him hit you. I took him out in one try, fully expecting some bullshit to happen midway.

its called Possessed Armor

His attacks are very well telegraphed and leave enough time for dodging. I got him in first try with a bit of patience.

Oh wow dragonslayer is back for another game? Thats pretty neat

It's ok I've already killed him
sad part is my first attempt at him went really well and then I got worse V_V

no, the one you're thinking of isn't

No. Thankfully unlike DS2 there are no old bosses from previous games being recycled and that is great.

Finally started putting in some time on Dark Souls, the first one. Got up to a fight on a bridge with a giant minotaur thing ("Taurus Demon", IIRC) before I decided to take a break. (Lost 10k souls when I died at the boss, then died on my way back to retrieve them. (The first time something like that happened, but I suspect it's far from the last.)

Really liking the atmosphere so far. The imagery puts me in mind of Glen Cook's Black Company novels. (Now there's a series that could use a good game tie-in.) Quickly learned that I can't play this like DMC, since trying to rock stylish combos will just earn me a spear through the chest from some zombie with a kite shield. I can see what all the hype was about now.

 

[Grief.exe]

From the rumors, it seems like the next couple of months.

 

[rtcn63]

One of the most important things you should do in Dark Souls(s) - pick a weapon and upgrade it. Max your shit out as far as you can until the next area. Don't worry about permanence, just be vigilant.

Also don't trust fuckers names Patches.

 

[zkylon]

did anyone see the arcadian atlas kickstarter?

it's a very clearly final fantasy tactics inspired srpg with really nice pixelart and a job system and like people in walking animation stuck in place and stuff

looks great

nice

and yeah dark souls is not a game that rewards style, it's a merciless world out there and you gotta get things done however you can. there's no fair in the battlefield, only alive and dead!

As soon as SOTFS goes on sale I can buy it and finish the DLC.

And then play DS3.

I already finished the first 2 games with a vanilla longsword (with a vanilla mace for DS2, cause holy fuck at all the enemies with slash resist in that game). Can't wait to do a vanilla longsword run on my first playthrough.


Fuck yo magic weapons, I'm just gonna do it old school

I also realized that fire infused weapons are pretty OP.

I live in Canada plus I already own DX9 DS2, so this is probably a bit more expensive vs. the next time Steam puts it on sale.

arcadian atlas also has fighting racoons

Minor spoiler for DS3

Spoiler

Currently the most powerful melee weapon type in the game is the straight sword. Best DPS. From what I've read and seen, you don't need shit else.

So does Marvel Heroes.
