This game looks good. I'm excited for it coming out this month. Is anybody else excited? I think so.
>>285189123
I've noticed that bloodborne threads only seem to be for shit posting. If you start a thread without a bait/shit post, then no one actually posts in it 90% of the time.
It's almost as though anyone who really cares about the game left a long time ago and now any thread about it is trolls trolling trolls, all while believing in the Sony/pc boogey man.
>>285190118
I guess.
I have a PC and bought a PS4 about a month ago, mostly for the current gen multiplayer games, but still i'm excited about BB after finishing DS 1 and 2.
Trailers look good, and now it's only a month away i'm actually thinking about pre ordering it.
The souls series might not be anything extraordinary, but it's one of the few series that still gets me exited before launch.
>>285190604
Same. I like that they're doing something different. If its successful and a fun game, I'd like to see them continue the trend of Souls-like games while exploring different environments and experimenting with the gameplay a bit.
>>285190118
I'm excited for this game but I stay out of these threads because the amount of shitposting is ridiculous for a game that isn't even trying to be a shitty cinematic experience.
You'd think that /v/ would actually be open to this game considering this is the main project that Fromsoft have been working on since AoTA, might actually make the PS4 somewhat worth a purchase and since it isn't a cinematic shitfest.
>>285190975
Honestly, if we discuss the game rather than what platforms it's available on, I think the thread would be more successful.
So who else is going Threaded cane for their first weapon? I played a lot of DS2 with a whip in my off hand and a rapier in the normal one, so this is just the perfect evolution of that style.
>>285191343
I'll probably go with the Saw. As long as I end up with the kirkhammer, I don't care what I start with.
Anyone else notice that the saw sword thing has a little lever to control the gear that lets the weapon transform? It's on the end of the handle there, just before the pivot point.
Unfortunately the character never actually uses it, but it's neat none-the-less.
>>285189123
I am quite excited and yet I will feel regret if it is not linked to Demon's Souls.
Umbasa.
>>285191343
I didn't really look at much of the Threaded Cane gameplay. How does it fight?And when it's equipped do you pimpwalk?
>>285191154
Yeah it would but there will always be that one guy who posts Gold Face.
>>285191343
I've never tried whips in a Souls game but that Cane looks pretty interesting considering how much the sword and whip can change the moveset entirely. The Hammer is also a weapon that changes up the dynamic a lot with damage vs speed but that weapons a bit too silly for my taste.
>>285191690
The sword mode seems to be standard longsword stuff, but the whip mode has really fucking wide attacks with great range. It looks like a crowd control beast because not only will it hit huge areas in front of you, but it does it fast.
There's some footage of it here, three minutes in
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZxOrn5nEUQ8
I just hope online/co-op is easier in the sense of summoning.
I'd always play with my bro, but Dark Souls took forever just to see our signs.Dark Souls 2 wasn't as bad, but it still took some time. We are both hyped as fuck for this shit.
>>285191690
You don't pimpwalk, but the transformation from whip back to cane has you stamping the cane on the ground like a badass.
>>285191885
Ignore them. Thats the best way to do things.
>>285191946
That would look neat using on beasts. Lion tamer style.
>>285192119
Summoning actually works differently now. From what I've seen in various footage, when you want to summon someone, you use an item that rings a bell. And it summons in whoever is around thats looking to be summoned. There aren't any more signs like there used to be.
At least thats what it looked like, I'm just guessing though.
so the last boss that got revealed looks like a shitty Sif/Skeletion Beast copy AGAIN
how and why are people defending Dark Souls 2.5?
Thoughts on this?
>>285189123
Yea it will be great when the beta is over and the game gets a release.
>>285192541
but the pc version wont come out until next year
>>285192359
RIP Captain Keyes
:"(
>>285192332
Thats neat. What are those little zombie guys that give you stuff, do you know?
If PC is master race does it mean cuckolding is an acceptable fetish now?
>>285192705
plenty of time for all the bugs to get worked out, I can wait.
Of course, like GTA, if I lose interest by then I will just pirate it.
>>285192541
PCuck tears
>>285192359
Wow. That is litterally what a shoggath looks like in my minds eye.
>>285192359
Well, we saw a girl praying on the ground and speaking in the maiden in black's voice in one trailer (The story one, I believe)
If you look closely you can see what appears to be the same girl praying there at the beginning of the Gif. She's in the center there with a candle to her right.
It then cuts to that hentai beast in the same spot. And if you look carefully, both when the thing is zoomed out and in, you can see that the bottom part of it appears to be a pair of female like legs and lower body.
I'm gonna guess that lady becomes that monster in the same way GasCoin transforms halfway through his fight.
>>285192971
I've never played Demon Souls. Who is Maiden Black??
>>285192936
>>285192787
Fuck off with your shitposting.
>>285193071
ignore them,i know that's hard but it's best this way
>>285193071
pls just ignore
>>285192887
The level of delusion is admirable.
>>285192359
I think the child in the baby carriage is the Thirsty Beast
>>285189123
Gonna buy a ps4 for this game if it turns out good
So is there anymore info on guns in this game? I'm hoping to eventually make a build that makes a gun viable by itself.
Even a Melee weapon that transforms into a gun would be pretty cool.
>>285192785
I don't know, but have you seen the first 18 minute trailer? When the main character is given the first blood transfusion, he sees one of the werewolf things coming over and seemingly offering him it's paw. Then it bursts into flames and is replaced by the messengers.
I'd say the beast represents his change into the creature and how it was prevented by those messengers. Whatever the messengers are, they seem to be the main source of the Hunter's abilities, since they give you weapons, act as a shop, gather around the lanterns you light, transport you back to these lanterns, etc etc.
>>285193064
>>285193193
If you think sony will just ignore a huge revenue stream I think you're the delusional one.
>>285192971
The MiB VA is voicing the new level up waifu.
This boss is the NPC that looks significantly like Astraea. Might have the Monumental's VA.
>>285191343
I havent even looked into it, i want the game to be new from day 1, and thank fuck that /v/ doesn't actually talk about the game, just the 30fps speed limit, which was fine for DS1 on xbox 360.
>>285193064
She was a central character in Demon's story. Sort of like the Emerald herald in DS2. Her voice is very unique, though that might just be her VA.
Either way, that same voice is heard in BB trailers. What that means? No one knows. But GasCoin says Umbasa, which was a Demon souls thing that people said at the end of prayers.
god damn it i really should get into this series even if it is going to kick my ass probably
>>285193451
>there are people that still unironically think Bloodborne will come to PC
I'm not even accusing you specifically because it's clear you're baiting, I'm just saying this in general.
>>285193334
There is a melee weapon that transforms into a gun
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZxOrn5nEUQ8
>>285193530
Oh yeah, the Norwegian sounding chick. That would be neat if it had little things connecting it to other games, even if it's not an actual bridge but just hints.
>>285189123
Call me when they add muskets with bayonets
now that would be a great, original fighting style. Works like a spear, but with the butt of the musket useful as a blunt weapon (in case of skeletons or other creatures resistant to piercing damage), has an incredibly powerful attack with the shot (which would take a while to reload, meaning you'd have to be out of combat to do it)
>>285193597
play through them all. i like DaS best, i really do like all of them. see which ones you like, and you'll appreciate bloodborne more since it comes from the same people who made demon's souls
>>285193658
I could never place her accent. It sounded russian to me.
>>285193492
Really? I assume thats the doll.
>>285193851
The doll turns into her, yes.
someone quick post golden face
>>285193780
Well, there's a rapier/handgun combo, so a spear blunderbuss very well could be a thing.
>>285193780
>>285193921
So this guy clearly has a Gatling Gun.
Question is this: Is he a boss or is that an actual player weapon?
Because you can only get like 20 bullets at a time.
Can't wait for that 24fps. It'll get the dark and cinematic feel across perfectly.
I hope they didn't remove the "and so the nightly hunt begins" line. The way she said it just sounded so orgasmic but I fear they told her to dial back the accent so she doesn't sound so MiB
Here's something I've never seen anyone talk about:
In this footage here
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZxOrn5nEUQ8
Which has been posted a few times already, you can see a +5 next to the bullet inventory in the upper left. They mention it in the Video and Miyazaki says to ignore it.
You guys think you can upgrade bullets to be more powerful?
>>285194442
that guy has some rockin tits
>>285194537
Huh, interesting crossover between the maiden in black and a fucking snake.
>>285194640
I'm sure there will be different types of bullets. I would be surprised if that replaced elemental upgrades to weapons.
>>285194641
Look again, thats his arm. Notice the gloved hand.
>>285194883
Oh shit. I prefer the tits tho.
Here's a question:
Miyazaki's other games have both ended with you fighting a king and then having to make a choice that effects the world.
Do you think the last boss will be another king? And what will the choice be?
>>285194442
>>285194641
>>285195442
The final boss is Solomon Kane and there is only one ending.
>>285193340
If you pay close attention you can see the fog gates are made of messengers, so I'm guessing they're souls or something.
It would make sense as a demon's souls game, for the gray fog to be souls.
I think it's a good vs evil deal. The wolf represents an inner demon and the messengers (of god) are more benevolent.
The maiden beast is being painting as the final boss, or at least important story wise, likely a patient 0. I'm guessing she prayed to god and something else answered?
>>285195697
>Solomon Kane
I know you're trolling me, but thats pretty good.
We need to have him in a three way tag team with Van hellsing and alucard.
https://youtu.be/zmTq1wJCSCY
Played Soul Sacrifice Delta?
>>285195854
Thats an interesting idea. I like it.
Though, perhaps she prayed to god and he did answer. Remember, in Demon's souls it is hinted that the god the clerics are all praying to is actually just the old one in some distorted form.
>>285194640
It's bloodtinge, the number goes down when he fires the gun.
>>285191631
There's a guy in there who actually ends his prayer with Umbasa.
>>285196202
Playing it now. I'm baffled at how a game with such fast paced combat can be as slow if not slower than ds2.
>>285196202
I was thinking about getting a PSTV for it, since I'm not a fan of handhelds.
I don't really mind that it looks a lot like the Souls games. I think it's a really good formula, but the world and lore are becoming a little confusing and overplayed. Actually, before Bloodborne was announced, I remember thinking about how I wished they could keep most of the gameplay elements but hit the reset button on the universe, because it's getting tired fast. They made a great call.
>>285198204
Yeah. See, the biggest problem with DS2's lore is that the game had no real identity of its own. It was a giant fanfic tribute. I get that it's a sequel, but they really should have just kept the basic ideas, maybe one or two vague references, and then done something new. I mean, what is the world like 10,000 years after you take the dark lord ending? What the hell kind of shit would arise in that time? Thats fertile ground for exploration.
I'm so hyped to see what the monsters look like. All the ones they've shown so far look great and the enemy design in general seems promising.Tittymonster girl when?
>>285195442
The last boss in Demon's souls is not a King though
I'm going to go to the vidya game shop on release and buy the game, if you know what I mean
>>285192787
YOU WIN!
FIRST SHITPOST IN A BB THREAD
>>285199302
What are you talking about? Even if you don't count false king allant as a king because he's just a demon filling in, the last boss you fight inside the old one is whats left of the true king allant.
post yfw you beat the first real boss and the title Demon's Souls 2 pops up.
>>285199705
I noticed that in Demon's Souls,if you consume too many souls they worry you too will become a Demon,while in Bloodborneif you consume too much blood you become a beast. They both alsohave that as reoccouring theme that seems to play a major role in the game, as well as you both being slayers of beasts or demons
>>285199705
Considering des is 6 years old and 90% of people buying bloodborne such as myself have never played it it will be needless and confusing
>>285198726
Right from the start it was pretty apparent that b team was never suited for making an RPG. Especially since all they focused on was vague dialogue that they knew made no sense but didn't care enough since they thought that was 'the point' of dark souls. Apparently whoever the producer was felt that way too, since the specialized lore staff members were about as useful as the average dudebro.
I'm fucking STOKED, OP!
>>285200110
>90%
I think thats a pretty high estimate. Lets get some data on that though:
http://strawpoll.me/3765765
>>285200080
Bloodborne is an individual "world" from des made into an entire game.
>>285200402
DS2 is interesting because, while many of the major things weren't as good, there were a bunch of minor improvements that were great.
Stuff like the new inventory design, the rings that let you choose who to coop with, using multiple souls at once, etc is great.
I think they just need to get b-team to handle interfaces while miya and co handles everything else.
PLEASE let there be a PC version!
>>285191343
Definitely. I used a SLB whip in DARK Souls and absolutely destroyed people when they spammed parry on it.
Preordered it to get my local gameshop break the street date. They get Sony titles always at least a week before launch so I'm pretty excited for the "pure" Souls experience.
Wasn't that hyped for a new game since Dark Souls original release.
>>285189123
I just realized while playing Dark Souls and two-handing people with Zweihander that I wish you could slice enemies up like in Severance or Die By The Sword, that would be neat
>>285201073
Exactly. That's all b team is worth. They just took a list of complaints about ds1 and fixed them. And its not like the other team couldn't have just done that themselves.
When it comes to trying new things b team is like a fish out of water. They implemented a whopping three new ideas and two of them sucked. One of them almost irreversibly ruined the game. Its like they hired several dozen people to do one job that five people from a more experienced team could do twice as well.
>>285200110
http://strawpoll.me/3765765/r
I find it amazingly amusing that you got 90% right, but that it was 90% actually had played DeS, not the other way around.

>>285201685
Which one is that, severance or die by the sword?
I tried die by the sword a long time ago and it felt terrible. Arms just flying everywhere with no force behind them.
>>285202293
Severance multiplayer I think
>>285192342
>Last boss
A boss got revealed, for all we know it's just some challice dungeon thing.
>>285202798
Don't reply to shit posters, anon. It feeds them.
What bullshit theories have you created about the story?
>>285202798
It's not a chalice dungeon boss, but its a boss that's seen several visual improvements since its initial project beast appearance.
Also you would do well to not reply to bait.
>>285203059
I like that one theory about how the church thinks that using the blood and turning them into beasts makes the people more like their god. That theory also included the idea that there would probably be three endings, based on which part of the church you allied yourself with, if you allied with the church at all.
>>285203289
The church of umbasa is probably just going to be one of the several hunter factions someone from a team recently confirmed. I'd be surprised if they had any particular plot relevance.
>>285203584
If this game is potentially linked to Demon's Souls,The Old One and God are the same beings. Old One confirmed for returning?
>>285194442
He's Veteran Gyula, an old hunter
The music you hear at the beginning of IGN's horrifying monster's and mini-bosses video is hisboss theme
>>285203710
Was the old one the church's god in DeS? It seems like he wouldn't be because of how everyone knew how he was trying to end the world and shit.
>>285203180
I think it is a chalice dungeon boss, not only do you have to open the same looking door (procedural generation) which led to the flame dog, both their descriptions have 'ancient' in them
So how exactly does the protag stay unaffected by the stuff that infected the townsfolk?
>>285189123
Is there a special edition ps4 for this in murrica?
>>285204456
he pretty much JUST got the transfusion man. I know what you mean though one of the first npcs you talk to is a veteran hunter. I wonder what they have to do to keep the blood from taking their body over completely.
>>285204037
Yeah it was.Talisman of Beasts: An old wooden amulet resembling the Old One. It can utilize both miracles and spells. The symbol of God was nothing more than the Image of the Old One.
>>285204456
He doesn't.
>the new hollow form makes the game harder to play
>>285204605
OK, so it was a twisted symbol that no one knew anything about. Thanks anon, I haven't played DeS in like a year.
>>285203059
>Yharnam has been infected by the Scorn of the Beast for a while now (years even)
>a prophecy was made (during the 18 min IGN video a NPC remarked that the player chose "quite the night" to arrive in Yharnam) that on the night the game takes place SOMETHING will happen
>this great prophecy is just a trap to get more blood from outsiders
OR
>this great prophecy turns out to be correct and the player now has a quest/goal
OR
>this great prophecy turns out to be a trick and most players will end up "fulfilling" the prophecy and fucking everyone over(frampt) while a minority will do the opposite and get something like the dark endings in Souls games(kaathe)
I know most people on /v/ will disagree with me, butI wish there were more player-oriented cutscenes that show off your character (that you spent hours making look cool/stupid with fashion/character creator). DaS2 was particularly disappointing because it shows your character for a grand total of 10 seconds throughout the entire ~40 hour+ game. The only cutscene I remember showing your character is the Chariot boss intro.
I also hope a massive explosion changes a large part of a level.
>>285204593
I think it was said somewhere that to remain human, you have to take normal human blood into your body, and by taking beast blood into your body you run the risk of becoming more beast like. Can't remember where they said it, though. It was probably in a developer commentary video.
>>285205574
I would argue that neither Frampt or Kaathe were 'good' endings in DaS. One keeps the bloody cycle spinning, the other sees the extinguishing of ancient civilization.
>>285205772
The bit about different types of blood it still unconfirmed. All we really know is that Miyazaki said that there was a soul/hollow form, and its clear from gameplay that it isn't assumed through dying anymore.
>>285201187
It's not coming, I would prefer it but it's really not, I'm getting a ps4 next month.
>>285191505
Just wanted to let you know I thought it was neat too anon.
>>285206082
What about the ign first 18 minutes gameplay? Sure, it was taken from an older build of the game, but the character's limbs seemed to get more lanky and beast like after that first death.
>>285193334
There was a gun in an IGN video that was taki off 50+damage by itself. So, there will probably be powerful guns in this game that do more than stun.
PC fags will NEVER EVER get cuck'd
^_^
>>285206678
More importantly we already know that there are guns that consume more than one bullet. There no bigger indication of this than that.
>>285194537
Did someone break her back? Body part damage confirmed?
>>285203180
And how do you know this?
>>285206003
Kaathe ending was the natural flow of things. At the end of the gods' era humans rise above them just as the gods rose above the dragons at the end of their era.
Frampt ending is unnaturally extending the duration of the age of fire.
>>285207159
Because the boss shows up in the Project Beast trailer, in almost an identical room and uses lightning attacks there as well?
>>285201728
DaS2 wasn't made by a b team anymore than BB is being made by a b team. I really wish people would stop repeating that meme.
>>285207631
But its not a meme. Never has been. Almost no one that made ds2 had any experience with past games.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=u0FKfK0H9dY
Why does that "30" in the top right go up to "31" as soon as you enter the boss room?
>>285207772
Isn't that the question of the day?
>>285207772
Because insight apparently goes up whener you challenge a boss.
>>285207772
I think it has something to do witha new stat known only as insight. Nobody knows what it does.
>>285201187
With the Sony? NO WAY!
>>285207873
I'm sure you'll make something up, faggot.
>>285207894
>>285207904
I see. Thanks.
>>285207894
What do you think about that theory that insight might be linked to the day/night cycle of the game?
>>285208014
Totally baseless.
>>285201187
Posts like these are just falseflags, right? I'm not claiming that sonyfags don't have blood on their hands, but PCfags have definitely been falseflagging as falseflagging sonyggers lately
>>285208208
It's impossible to tell, so it's best to ignore.
>>285206653
Well there were people playing the online test or whatever and they died and didn't go beast mode.
But they might have just removed it from that build, or it could be related to the fact that you get a character select screen on death.
Either way, it's best not to take any rumors too seriously.
>>285190604
if there is one thing this next gen of consoles has taught me it's to stop pre ordering. there are plenty of copies to go around mate. see what reviewers say and watch lets plays
>>285208624
That's fair. I hope they release some pvp and beast mode info before the game releases.
>>285209046
I could be wrong, but I saw an anon mention that IGN will not be covering PvP mechanics at all and leaving it to be a surprise for those when the game comes out, but it is confirmed to be in the game by them.
>>285209182
I think thats best. I love discovering shit like that.
>>285209182
Well, IGN's month of first coverage for bloodborne is complete, so we probably won't be getting information from them very often anymore.
I feel like we wouldn't really need confirmation to know that there will be pvp in the game, as its way of handling those interactions are what make it so unique.
Sucks that you'll need ps+ for online stuff, though. Maybe that's why they haven't shown off pvp yet, so nobody feels left out.
>>285209046
I'm still surprised that they haven't shown anything yet. I guess they want their core RPG audience more than they want the normalfag audience this time.
>>285209578
Is the pvp where the normalfag audience is attracted to the game? I always thought the shouts of 'omg this gaem iz so hardcore xDD' were what brought in the casuals.
>>285210251
Nah, right after the whole 'first play through' thing the next popular twitch bux generating thing is PVP.
>>285210251
Nah
they would've bought the game after watching pewdiepie play it, complain about no tutorial and dying a lot and pull out their ethernet cable when getting invaded
>>285210251
Combination of things.
Really though, the farther we get from the meta nightmare that is DS pvp, the better.
>>285209182
They said on Twitter they weren't allowed to cover pvp but it exists as they saw snippets of it.
>>285189123
Fuck off with this sick dark shit
>>285189123
Lol PCucks will NEVER EVER get this game
>>285211225
From what we've heard of the pvp (the rumors of beast players and the hunting thereof) I think we might end up opening a whole new can of worms.
>>285206421
>, I'm getting a ps4 next month.
I really feel sorry for you.
>>285211358
>its ok when nintendo does it
>>285211620
You shouldn't, i'll be playing Bloodborne
Can someone tell me wtf is "sickdark"? Is original castlevania type games now uncool or something?
>>285211691
Yes because blood is just splurting everywhere in that game. /sarcasm
>>285211225
At least there won't be rubber banding backstabs any more
>>285209170
>not having the player light the blunt with his torch
how do you fuck this up
>>285211961
>giving your enemy the advantage
I think not
>>285211264
Ok, so they're withholding PvP info on purpose still.
Yeah, some type of beast shit is likely, but more importantly of they're being this secretive about it PvP more or less has to be significantly different from souls PvP.
>>285211961
I am so sorry
>>285212096
>not letting the boss light his blunt on the players torch because he's the boss
>>285212131
That's Miyazaki for you. The master of cryptic game design and we love him for it.
>>285211606
Welp, I don't have ps+ so...OH WELL.
>>285212274
perfect
>>285211871
What do you think would happen if someone swung a saw cleaver into your chest? A weapon that slashes and tears?
>>285211871
Yes because muddy puke coloured textures are just splurting everywhere
>>285211692
And while you're doing that will be playing any game I want with 60+ fps
>>285212530
Any game you wantexcept Bloodborne

Is this 2006?
Guys, don't respond to shit posters. It helps no one. "Never ever" and "Sickdark" are the death of threads.
More on topic, we've seen that weapon infusion or buffing is a thing in the game. How you think they'll handle it?

It will be sickdark, never ever will there be a system that good.
>>285213124
Exactly how they handled it in past games. And based on the stat screen, down to the types of elements as well.
>>285212871
Sorry, I'm not up to date on the dankest memes. I meant to say edgy.
>>285213124
I'd really like to see infused bullets.
>>285213245
Is this a shitpost or a sad attempt at trying to fit in?
>>285213124
We can't be sure for now, but I keep trying to point out that, in the ign footage, when they're picking the weapons they have three or four empty slots over their stat blocks. Do you think this could mean we could have multiple infusions/buffs on the same weapon at once?
>>285189123

I hope you fucking Sonyggerswill enjoy the game

I'm surprised we made it that far. Just be happy it wasn't the third post.

The thing that makes me wonder is the fact that when they activate the electricity on the weapon, they do it with a motion that looks similar to the weapon transformation action. A sort of jerk or half swing of the weapon. There's no resin application or anything.
What if infused weapons are created via technology and the infusion can be turned on and off? And maybe while it's on the weapon's durability goes down faster in addition to split damage or something.
>>285213124
Most likely it will be both an actual infusion (Sickdark Claymore) or a temporary buff (Vial of Beasts' Blood).
There really isn't any other viable options of getting a weapon to have special elemental effects unless you want to include bad game design.

I am excited for a fresh new Souls game with all the surprises that entails.
It's high time From make their bosses more dynamic in relation to the rest of the level. It's not necessary for every boss to be sectioned off from everything else happening. Some of these bosses are clearly capable of breaking the four walls and ceiling that keep them imprisoned. Gascoin looks like an exception, but every monster type boss in this looks like they would have stayed in that room for all eternity if you didn't stumble in and kill them.
>>285213879

It's ok, just calm down man. Some people are pretty kneejerk in their reactions, they're always gonna freak out on ya. Just move on, be the better man.

I'm just saddened by it.
Man, the Hunter of Beasts' right thigh is gonna look like a fucking dartboard by the end of this game.

There was also a dark magic user in the same room
And the boss is named dark beast paal implying multiple darkbeasts
Also the rooms are actually different
>>285214332

Not necessarily. Artorias was called "Knight" artorias and there weren't any other "Knight" Bosses. Same with Dragonslayer Orinstien, Executioner Smough, Gravelord Nito, and so on. Miyazaki likes the "Description, Name" style of naming bosses it seems.
So let's talk about the covenants.
I had an idea similar to the covenant in ds2 that allowed you to try and protect yourself from invaders, what if you could take a permanent decision that would make it easier to repel invaders?
I was thinking if you took this penalty you could turn into a 'beast' when invaded and then use that form to kill the invader, you wouldn't be able to kill normal monsters in the form and they would de-aggro and go back to thier spawn position, you also probably shouldn't get a reward for killing the invader.
What do you guys think?
>>285215943
Well, there's no fog gate the first time the boss shows up this time. We've seen it with both Cleric beast and Paarl. You just walk into an area and boom, boss.
>>285216328
Not sure, but I want covenants to involveblood pacts or some sort of permanent ties to them. The idea or thought you can simply leave after joining one and move to another or back with little to no consequences always seemed really stupid to me
PC release when?
>>285216740
It's been confirmed that you can be tied to a covenant permanently if you do certain things.
>>285216837
PC release in 2017 through Playstation Now. Only $5.99 every 2 hours.

Yeah but dark souls bosses were guarding somthing most of the time or really where stuck
1. Guarding the door to the our side
2. guarding the bell
3. dont remember
4. gapping dragon was stuck i believe
5. was guarding her sister and the 2nd bell
6 was guarding anor londo
7 and 8 where guarding the princess
and so on
>>285216740
involve blood pacts or some sort of permanent ties to them.
you can consume your heart to stay with the coventant you want now
>>285216328
I have such a hard-on for the idea of turning into a werebeast. Imagine being a werespider or werewolf or some shit like that. I really like the idea of beast covenants
>>285217090
Taurus demon just seems to be romping around and we happened to cross it's path.
Still, how exactly did they get that demon to guard the asylum? They don't seem the type to be hired out.
>>285217326
As long as we don't need PSN+ to do it, I'm sold.
Remember how Gascoin turned halfway through his fight? The ability to do that would be kickass.
>>285216453
The cleric beast did have a fog gate, which honestly made no difference because it jumped out of nowhere onto the bridge anyway. So, there's two indications, one after the other, that you're about to fight a boss. The cleric beast's appearance immediately lets you know it's a boss, and it jumps in from far away, so you have enough time to quickly prepare. The fog gate isn't necessary here.
And Paarl is still isolated away from everything else, in a room which has walls that should be breakable by such a huge monster like that.
Gascoin's set up is far more interesting because he's in a grave yard, of which you walk through several in level. It gives you the sense that he's been traversing the same areas you have, and indeed these two characters may have just missed seeing each other at different times during the day/night. He's one with the level, whereas these monster bosses are so removed from everything else.
>>285212274
Nice
>>285217403
I dont care too much about lore but i guess the demon god just made it and told it to be there
>Taurus demon just seems to be romping around and we happened to cross it's path.
Its still holding the key to get out so i guess i can still say its 'guarding it'
>>285213798
I think that sounds like a reasonable idea, but I don't know what the point to that would be, or if there would be enough buttons on the controller to support all those actions, considering we know what all the shoulder buttons do and what half of the face buttons are for.
>>285217930
You're thinking of Capra. I mean the big bull mother fucker you fight on the top of the castle wall between the burg and the parish. The one right before Solaire.
>>285217090
In some cases it's not too convincing though. If you're going to employ a monster to guard the entrance to something, why the fuck not just make one hidden entrance made by and for the people going in? And have secret booby traps just inside the entrance which only the makers know how to disable. This too me seems way more convenient and effective.

>>285217713
The cleric beast only has a fog gate after you lost to him and go back to fight him again, otherwise you wouldn't even know you were about to fight a boss on the bridge unless you watched footage of the boss fight. It's possible that there could be several of those kinds of doors in the dark beast's boss fight, so that'd be kind of cool if you just randomly find yourself face to face with a huge electricity fuzzkeleton monster.
>>285218659
>when nintentoddlers stop being cancerous.

Thats a guess at best. Even DS1 whose trailer showed several late game bosses didn't show gywn.

That's Insight, Bloodbornes Soul Memory.
Basically, each time you challenge a boss, the number goes up. Therefore, you can only invade people with the same number of insight (means they're up to where you are, eliminates twinking)
What if the game bombs?
>>285219428
It would be unfortunate? People would complain? Other people would make fun of them? Thats about it.
