Bayo 2 is going for beaucoup bucks on the second hand market due to her inclusion in SSB4.
They just have to make the protag a SSB4 character and they're good to go.

unlike other consoles the wii u architecture is very unique and it so optimization is required

>but devs just don't care because they hateboner nintendo for no reason

The business world doesn't work like that. There is always a reason.

And no, computing just simply does not work like that. The Wii U would not run Bloodborne as well as the PS4, simply because it has worse hardware. The processing power required to run Bloodborne is a lot higher than what's required of SSB4 or MK8, which comparitively has a style that's very easy to render, and doesn't have a lot of heavy shit going on around you.

It's a weak console hardware wise, and so it won't get PS4/Xbone multiplats.

3rd party and even first party already tend not to optimize too much for ps4/xbone/pc, what gives you the impression they'll treat a console with effectively sub-par specs differently?

>>323418667

You don't have CE tables on consoles but make no mistake there's plenty of exploits on the consoles and they're just as bad as what CE tables can do in some cases.

Bottomless box glitch didn't come about because of CE tables, that shit was there on PS3/360 since launch of DaS1. Sure it's not infinite health but it may as fucking well be.

i dont mind about durability, but, for example, you cant pull off jump attack or guard break consistently in ds2 or dsfix ds1, reason being they tied the input to framerate somehow.
or enemy animations being faster at double or triple the framerate. it's unplayable on a 144hz monitor without capping.

they fixed it in scholar though

c) just wait for 3
d) kill myself
>>
>>323419565

Yea but much like Dark Souls 1 a lot of the artistry in the textures gets lost in the lack of proper filtering and anti-aliasing. Also the frame rate is really quite poor.

>>323419613

I've played it and finished it multiple times on PS4, it looks great doesn't mean it isn't wasted potential.
>>
>>323419750
Play 2 and save 1 for after 3.
>>
>>323419750

Plat Bloodborne and then play DaS.

DaSII is okay at best, with huge glaring flaws even then. The worst offender being the ridiculous movement limitations. It's very subtle, but compared to movement in BB and DaS it's hard to swallow.

You just aren't as attuned to notice the shit as I am. Being a primarily PC user with consoles for their exclusives results in noticing these issues to the point where they severely hamper your enjoyment. If you are primarily a PC user that doesn't notice these things count yourself lucky.

>>323420153

Yes it severely hampered my enjoyment of the game in certain areas. None of it was worse than the terrible Chalice Dungeons though.
>>
>>323418939
Because he doesn't want to make sequels in the first place. # will likely just make references to 1 and 2 like 2 did with 1. The Das3 gameplay already has Drakeblood Knights from DaS2 in it, so that's something that's coming back at least. They were cool as a vestigial bit of lore though, hunting dragons for the sole purpose of drinking their blood because it might free you from the curse. Also official screenshots have had enemies with the Drangleic crest on them and I doubt they'd be dumb enough to use something that important as a placeholder or just for visual flair in promotional material without a good reason for it. DaS3 seems to be taking evenly from 1 and 2 with plenty of its own shit in their for good measure as well.

Where did the 'Miyazaki dislikes DaS2' meme come from anyway, if you read interviews its actually the opposite.

Framerate isn't a couple of post processing filters. Terrible aliasing and chromatic abberation ruin what could've potentially been the best looking game of last year.

"Bloodborne would've looked significantly better and have run significantly smoother if there was a PC version. The fact that there wasn't is a shame as the artistry the developers put into the game didn't live up to it's full potential"

You stop being a cunt.

Framerate was bad, not excusable, but I've been playing console games my whole life, used to have a toaster laptop for PC games, I can deal with it and have fun but still be critical and self aware.

Apologist? I said aesthetic is important, but it's by far the easiest aspect to look past in a video game. I'm a huge baby when it comes to aesthetic, art design, etc. but if a game has certain strengths it can be overlooked. I'd still prefer a more complete or 'perfect' game but I won't let it keep me from having fun. There are many aspects to a game and they all have different levels of importance, leniency, etc. to every person. Having such a fucking extreme level or priority for one aspect is just asking to be disappointed. I'm not saying have lower standards, I'm saying have rational or complex ones instead to enjoy things but still be self aware and critical. You're just being a fucking big baby.

Not subjective, relative. Compared to other bosses, Cleric Beast is one of the simplest. He does not have any hugely damaging moves, and his attacks are very telegraphed and easy to avoid. He also has basically no range or elemental damage.

And you have to kill either him or BSB, and I don't know anyone who thinks BSB is easier than CB.

I feel like in the end BB will probably be seen as a top tier FROM game.

When kids 10 years from now are looking back, I think bloodborne will resound as an amazing standalone experience that's more accessible, has better art design, and is a little more timeless than Demons or Dark Souls.

I dunno, I feel that BB works better as a standalone product than any of the other games, MAYBE Dark Souls outshines it a little, but I feel it won't age as well.

Just some thoughts.

I disagree

bloodborne's combat is more aggressive with more punishment but more reward than souls' passive play

DaS mainly has nostalgia value, the majority of the fans got into the series with it and it was more widely available than DeS. I did a playthrough like a month ago and already DaS1 is cracking at the seams of how well it holds up. People getting into the series from this point forward probably won't like DaS anywhere near as much as most of the fanbase likes it now. Maybe I'll be able to discuss DeS and DaS2 without shitposters popping up and being like 'lol das is better i havent played des and only played an hour and a half of das2 but its just not the same lol miyazaki is god :)' or any of that shit.

>>323421626

Sony fanboys get triggered when people remind them games always look and play better on another platform. They want to believe their 300-400 bux box is the same as a pc due to an inferiority complex. If that anon didn't show them the time stamped ps4 and games they would be shit flinging all over. But idorts know better.

Instead they are trying to put words in his mouth and pretend the game wouldn't have objectively looked and played better on the pc even though the anon said he enjoyed it but the game wasn't at full artistic visual potential. Course that argument will go in the trash come dark souls 3.

Now look at what they are trying to devolve the argument into to get the last word so they think they won. It's a child's mentality and a shitposting tactic when they lost the argument.
>>
>>323421938
I think besides Demon's Souls BB is the most 'complete' game. As in, it succeeds in its design without a lot of hiccups.

DaS1 dropped off near the end, though the first half was absolutely magical. We don't even need to talk about DaS2.

But yea I was thinking the same thing. It'snot necessarily innovative but it certainly will be remembered as one of the gems from this era.

There really isn't more punishment in BB at all. There's little to no stamina management requirements you don't lose anything of rare value on death like humanity or even health. To top it all off you start with 20 blood vials and don't have to upgrade anything to get that many. You can make a thousand mistakes in a BB fights and as long as you don't get hit by a 1hit kill you can always recover back to full strength in a matter of a second or two.

Why in the world would you have gotten Dark Souls II on PS3?
Demon's Souls is lovely and I played Dark Souls on the PS3. But those games have performance issues. Dark Souls is a lot better on PC and replaying it on PC was much more enjoyable than playing it on the PS3.

Knowing the performance differences between Dark Souls on PS3 versus Dark Souls on PC, and knowing ahead of time that Dark Souls II would be on PC. Why get it for the PS3?

BB has 26 weapons, all are unique with the exception of saw clever/spear. All of them have a second form with entirely new moves except boom hammer and tonitrus

The souls games are changing and have a ton of variation and stories going alongside each other.

They were bought by Kadokawa, the biggest anime and manga publisher in the world. They have a stake in pretty much every industry you can imagine, but an awful vidya division. The acquisition of From is meant to help rectify that. BB and DaS3 were From's last contracted games before the sale so after DaS3 and any DLC they're required to do under contract is released, all future projects will be published by and likely co-developed by Kadokawa.

the new ultra greatsword looks amazing, I'm glad they're taking notes from bloodborne when it comes to combat and having every button do something(like rolling r2s and the l2 sword arts.)

Whats the best starting weapon and why is it cane?

I'll never understand this.

This is the most fanservicey thing in ANY FROM game to this point. And people lap it up.

Never change Souls community

>fanservicey thing
the game is made to entertain you, you blind fuck
There is LITERALLY no cons from doing so and it makes the game better as a result, you are a PCuck you can spot it a mile away you fucking faggot.

I play on console every time because I seriously couldnt stand the cheaters. There are still some on PS versions of the games but nowhere near as much as on PC. 0 fucks given, that shit ruins my personal experience, no amount of grafix will alleviate that shit.

it's only wrong when it's lazy, cynical and distracting. This is neither.

I think Im seriously going to miss the dodging and trick weapons(essentially you build yourself for using one weapon but are infact able to use two) guns were shit in my opinion wasnt a fant of the rally thing.

I keep going back and playing DaS every so often and I can feel how slow and clunky it is comparatively, and it seriously fucking sucks how methodical the combat is. That said though, looking at gameplay of 3 it looks to be way faster and less rythmatic, the enemies dont just stop attacking because they hit you now. Another thing to note that there was never any shit point in BB, where in DaS as soon as you kill O and S the game takes a nosedive in enjoyment, BB never suffered that at any point and went from strength to strength, never a point in the game where you roll your eyes at the prospect of going through it, like dragon ass hell for example.

If youre autism demands you get 100% achievements then yes, the dungeons are boring. Its still entirely avoidable and not necessary to go through the game but if you like.
