Anyone else playing this?
Been going for a couple hours now and I'm having fun with it
Fuck the Watering Woods, though.
No because its only on ps4 at the moment
no but i'd really like to play blood zero again damnit
i miss the good ol visual basic days
>2D DARK SOULS!
might as well write "cause cancer" on top of it
>>331560345
>we're going to shill this twice every day until you buy our feces
You sure there aren't enough entries in the archive yet, OP? There might still be someone who hasn't been told it's like castlevania and dark souls in your own head.

Have you ever considered that maybe people want to just talk about videogames, anon?
How hard is it comparing to a Soul?
>>331563073
It's at about the same level as das 2 I'd say. Not horribly difficult.
>>331562672
Different anon. I bought the game and literally post in any S&S thread. Hell, it may actually be shilled but you know what, it was an alright game and its getting next to zero recognition on /v/
My biggesr gripe about the game was the lack of music.
I got around 30 hours to complete the game on my first run, including playing around with starter classes.
>>331563073
A lot easier but the bonfires are pretty far away. A lot of the similarity is in situations, like banging your head against a boss until you learn its attack patterns, or farming the area just outside of the "sanctuary" to level stuff up.
As far as stuff that ISN'T copied from Souls, there's an interesting sphere-grid style ability tree and a combo system that is deeper than it looks.
Just got the game though, I've only beaten the first boss. So far pretty highly recommended.

Surprisingly enough it's the first dark souls clone I've played which was good. It also serves to highlight just how much an evolution of the metroidvania style dark souls is. A large interconnected world with traps and shortcuts and stuff like that.
>>331563073
Not horribly difficult but there are areas, particularly later into the game, that are pretty annoying, falling down a ditch because the background is colored similarly to a platform is pretty annoying. Fuck the cage area.
I'm interested in picking it up but the artstyle looks so fucking bad. Can I wear a helmet to cover my character's face?
>>331561676
>idiotic post
might as well right "stupid bait" on top of it
>>331563561
Just pretend youre a ninja turtle
Vita release when?
>>331563561
Yeah, plenty of them. I found a bandit mask early on, put it on and never looked back
>>331563561
Yeah, you can.
Does anyone know how you get sellswords to come to your shrine? Do merchants sell items that attract them or what?
>>331563806
It's an idol you can pick up
It's really enjoyable and the co-op works pretty well, here's some things I have to say:
>I'm not a fan of the art style so I usually stick to the pumpkin hat
> Fuck the stupid Tree of Men boss
> Too many fire bosses
> I wish they'd explain creeds/covenants better in-game
> Co-op seems to crash fairly often
> Greatswords are really good and magic is OP
>>331563591
How much are they paying you?
>>331562193
Not when half the posts have simular text and point out exactly the same marketing points, no.
I'd play this if it was on pc.
>>331563910
I have no idea how to coop and I beat the dragon. Maybe I'm just not experimenting enough. Also, I'm using the scythe thing and that weapon is a fucking BEAST
>>331564013
I think it'll be on PC by Summer, hopefully they'll add online co-op by then
>>331563989
Meant towards >>331562672
>>331564013
Isn't it coming pc later this summer or something?
>objectively metroidvania gameplay
>people scream dark souls because of a font and artstyle
>>331564051
Local co-op only, use sellsword offering at a sanctuary and hire a sellsword then player 2 can pick their character
>>331560345
>gais, we made 2D DeS/DaS gaim, plz buy?
The game is fucking shit.
Cashgrabing while Des/DaS are popular.
>>331560345
Yeah, I'm 12 hours in and the end is nowhere in sight. Great game and totally worth it.
>streamer-bait with meme words like "salt" in the title
No thanks.
>>331564204
>local only coop
While I appreciate local multiplayer support that's kind of shit
>>331564154
Dark souls IS a metroidvania game, though. The game also has a very strong relation to dark souls in many ways, from the stats, to the way you upgrade your gear, to the weapons themselves, to the various enemy types, to the way you open shortcuts, to the way you level up. It's way more similar to dark souls than any castlevania or metroid game.

Zero recognition because it's PS4 exclusive until like June, more topics will sprout more frequently around then
>>331563970
Zero Dollars and Zero Cents you paranoid fucking idiot.
>>331563989
Well consider it.
>>331564154
They're clearly TRYING to make the game like DaS.
>>331564397
Salt is just souls.
>>331560345
Just beat the Jester it's pretty good so far. Pity shields are shit in most boss fights so it's roll souls again.
>>331566019
I prefer rollsouls.
>>331564435
metroidvania is generally characterized by being 2d side scrolling, tho.
by your logic, any RPG-esque game with multiple environments and half-decent level design would be considered a metroidvania
>>331566019
Once you find a 100% block shield the game is EZPZ mode

>>331563506
Thanks for your answers, i'll get it when there's a 5 buck price drop, currently saving for Layers of fear who looks interesting
The gameplay looks ok. Im a sucker for 2d games like this but holy shit do I hate the art style. Also no music is pretty lame.
>>331568330
Whaaat, no music? Might reconsider buying and waiting for ps+
>>331560345
>2D souls rip-off which looks like shit
There's no way I buy this kind of crap.
>>331568448
I've heard some people praising the music but I only remember music during the boss fights and I'm like 90% sure it's the same song every time
Why is this game sofun?
>>331564356
>Implying souls sequels isn't milking the series for money.
15 hours, is damn good. For mustard in June i think.
>>331568964
I plated demon souls, finished dark souls and just play a bit of dark souls 2, i feel so booored..
For me the best was demon souls, open world was not for me
