I don't think they're actually trying to kill you, I think it's an accidental side effect. I forget where exactly, but I distinctly remember a description mentioning that "Old Ones are sympathetic by nature" and just want to help, but our fleshy mortal bodies can't really handle their help.

It's a great concept and I love their unsettling singing. The only problem is how long the frenzy bar continues filling up after you've already killed them.
Even with the highest frenzy resist gear in the game and no insight, you'll still either have to chug a sedative or just take the frenzy damage. I farmed those fuckers a whole lot and it's just silly how long the bar keeps filling up.

You can use the parry exploit to avoid the damage, but there's a fucking problem when you can't kill an enemy without using an item, taking a huge chunk of damage, or using an exploit.

Your acceptance of Bloodborne shows you are open to new universes and lore, but you apparently reject Salt. A game that borrows heavily from Souls games and does its own thing with it. I say it is dumb because if your brand loyalism wasn't getting in the way you probably would have rejected Bloodborne on the same principle.

Shit only takes off 80% of your health no matter what.

It takes a lot of work to run into more than one of them. I only did because I was farming for some 19% physical gems before chalice dungeons.

Yes anon, but their grab and bite does damage too.

They're not hard to kill at all once you understand how they work. I was just pointing out that they can be intimidating when you first encounter them. I haven't died to a winter lantern in like 9 months.
>>
>>332469951
I know, but I'm saying that as long as you aren't hit by their insanely slow and telegraphed bite and grab and only suffer the incidental frenzy buildup from their spooky dicksucking song, you won't die.

I never noticed that their giant heads were made out of Messengers before. I did see that the underside of those squid things in the Nightmare Frontier were covered in Messengers though.

I thought maybe the implication was supposed to be that this is why the Messengers are on your side. Like the item lore talks about how the Messengers worship the Hunters, but don't ever say why. I suppose that if the Messengers are on the bottom of the food chain of the Nightmare realms then it would make sense that they'd try to help and/or idolize guys that go around slaying Nightmare monsters.

That's from the Moon rune. But the Brain of Mensis gives the third tier of that, along with the Living String, with says:

>The immense brain that Mensis retrieved from the nightmare was indeed lined with eyes on the inside, but they were of an evil sort, and the brain itself was terrible rotten.

So it appears it's more like these things are evil shits, but if you best them, and seek out their power, they won't reject you. Probably why Micolash could house a gigantic evil as shit Old One in his nightmare.

Salt and Sanctuary. Ignore the shitposters, it's actually a really good Metroidvania-style Soulsborne. It's got amazing level design and tight gameplay, a fairly original story (which is told in Souls style, though snips of dialogue and item/enemy descriptions), and plenty of variety in playstyles. The devs (of which there are only two) captured the feeling of danger and "just a little more then I'll go back to the bonfire" of Souls while maintaining the curiosity and need to explore of Metroidvanias. The art style was mentioned, and while I didn't mind it, that's a subjective point. The major set pieces look fine and they laid the bloom on a little thick; the backgrounds could use a little more detail but overall I thought the game's look meshed with its style. The music is very barebones, I will admit (I recall 3, maybe 4 tracks other than ambient noise), but I think it's a little more forgivable as the devs obviously couldn't spread their assets too thin and chose to focus on gameplay and level design, which more than make up for the negatives. One last thing is that the leveling system can feel a little restrictive coming from Souls as it opts for a skill tree with nodes that give stat points and other things rather than selecting stats directly. I could go on, but I'm sure there are plenty more qualified people to write an actual review of the game. I didn't mean for this to end up being a mini-review in the first place, I just wanted to provide an alternative viewpoint to the negative ones earlier in the thread.

Chalice dungeons were honestly absolute garbage. They were pure grinding and only 10% of them were enjoyable. The rest were a chore.

If I wanted to do nothing but mindlessly grind I'd play Diablo or Disgaea. I wouldn't mind them returning if there wasn't a bigger focus, you didn't have to grind for materials to do the root chalices, and gems didn't make a return, though. Randomly generate gem shit was garbage and killed the PvP.

I've already said it before, but I really feel like they should change how Frenzy works in order for it to be less of a chore to deal with. Two changes:

1. Either reduce prices of Sedatives from 4,600 to 1,000. OR change its effects so that it gives you like 15-20 seconds of complete immunity from Frenzy build-up.

2. Frenzy build-up should stop when you kill the opponent that gives you Frenzy. And in the case of Mother Brain, it should stop the moment you hide behind an object.

If these two changes come into effect, I honestly wouldn't mind if Frenzy did as much damage as it does.

Anyone else disappointed with how short, simple and small some of the areas are compared to Central Yharnam?

Lecture Building, Byrgenwerth, Upper Cathedral Ward and even Nightmare Frontier and Nightmare of Mensis are all short and small and simple compared to Central Yharnam.

Lecture Building takes like 3-4 minutes to casually stroll through. Byrgenwerth is just 4-5 bugs, a centipede, a brokenly overpowered NPC hunter and Rom.

Upper Cathedral Ward looks pretty and spooky on the outside, but once you get it, it's just a place with some werewolf variants and some annoying brainsuckers. You fight Celestial Emissary and literally walk 10 seconds to get to Ebrietas.

Nightmare Frontier is a relatively linear runway to Amygdala. It only looks big because of its open space nature. Otherwise, it is pretty short. The only hard part is getting the optional loot at the poison swamp. And the two Winter Lanterns.

Same with Nightmare of Mensis. It's a long Frenzy-filled walkway to Micolash and a shorter walkway to Mergo afterwards.

I just wish that the other areas were either bigger and more complex OR interconnected to each other.

As it stands, all you do is just teleport to places like Lecture Building, Nightmare of Mensis and Nightmare Frontier.

They're all separate parts of the map. Not even physically connected to Central Yharnam at all.

So the least they could have done is make these places super complex and big, but instead, they're all just either really small or not as big and complex as they should have been.

>>332490941
Well, yes, I know that.

That's precisely why I think NF and LB could have been way bigger.

If they're connected to CY, it would have been much harder to make them more complex and bigger, because the devs would have had to find a way to connect those levels in a cohesive and realistic manner to CY.

But because it's separate, the devs have more liberties to go crazy. But I really feel like they blew most of their budget on CY and didn't have the time or money to do as much work on these later areas.

It was a title commissioned by Sony, with help from their Japan Studio. It's not coming any time soon. As a primary PC gamer I'm OK with that, they paid for it, it's their business. Plus I'm way behind on my weeb games so I was going to get a PS4 eventually.

The Hunter-on-Hunter boss fights are fine. Okay, maybe Maria is a bit too easy. Maybe you can give her ways to counter any attempts at counter-rolling her attacks.

But it's the Hunter NPCs that are bullshit. They're the ones who should be fixed.
