Wew guys. I thought Lords of the Fallen being made was a meme made by ssouls fans, but goddamn that game is bad

Nice try From drones but Lords of the Fallen is basically Dark Souls but done right.
>Bought Lords of the Fallen last year
>Thought it was kinda cool but I had never played a Souls-like game before
>Everything was incredibly slow and clunky, the enemies range from being brain-dead retarded to being annoying fucks (Looks at you those big dudes with the shields)

>If an enemy has a shield and if you parry them, if you swing your weapon you still have a chance to hit the shield off to the side due to hitboxes, makes you stagger
>Made it to this spider whatever boss before selling it to Gamestop and getting Bloodborne
>>333591801
Oh yeah
>Game has parrying
>Some enemies have little to no startup for their attacks so you basically have to predict them
>You can get hit once by an enemy attack, stagger, and the window between that is enough for the enemy to attack again
For instance, there's this one zombie thing that swings around their weapon rapidly and at an incredible speed, little to no startup, and if you get caught in it, you're fucked.
Don't even get me started on certain enemies like the spiders.
It's ok.
I liked it but it's not amazing
Good ideas stuck in a very mediocre game.
The XP/loot multiplier was noice.
Doing attacks perfectly timed using less stam and sometimes changing the attack was also good.
>>333591801
This is seriously my expierence so far, only I can't sell it since I have it digitally.
>>333591679
It honestly feels exactly opposite.
>>333591405
It's not great, but it's more mediocre than bad.
>>333591405
>tfw paid $60 (sixty) US dollarrydoos for this upon release
What was I thinking?
>>333591405
Is it still buggy as fuck?
Is the DLC worth it, i could snap theGoty for 20€ and thats the max I would pay for a bad soulslike
>>333592295
DLC is shit but the game is probably worth it for that much if you want
>>333592341
So goty for 20 or the normal one for 13?
>>333591405
this shit sells only because it has denuvo and there was no refunds on steam back then
I hate the bosses in this game.
They just stand around for ages with their fuck-off shield and then summon a load of mooks.
By the time you kill the mooks the boss is already attacking you, meaning the opening it's supposed to give you to hit him closes because guess what? That fucker is on the other side of the map.
>>333591405
>>unbalanced
>>loot you don't care for
>>stupid enemies
Sounds like they did good job in copying soul's concepts. Does it has rotating enemies, poor hitboxes and shit combat as well?
>>333592385
Normal ose is probably best but check what the GOTY comes with anyway.
the one big DLC the did has a new are that's shit with shit reskins enemies and bosses and gay gear.
>>333592209
it was in polish magazine gaming month ago
for 15PLN
check how much this is in EUR or USD and then kill yourself :^)
Its downfall were shitty controls and bad animations. It's just a cheap attempt to cash in on Souls popularity.
The Souls series often gets criticized for its "artificial" difficult, despite the fact that even though it's challenging, it's still possible, and feels rewarding and makes you feel triumphant.
This game has none of that and just feels like a chore.
>>333592402
>Graveyard boss summons these two fuckers on opposite sides
>Have to run the fuck over and break the eggs before they hatch, which there's a very small window to do that
>By the time you finish that, the boss is either swinging his shit at you or doing the same thing, making you run back and forth
>>333592434
Hehe :P
>>333591405
so just like the Shit Souls games?
>>333591679
Actually its better than any souls game
>>333592553
I just had the graveyard dude kill the mookies for me
Took me like 4 attempts though before I realized how to dodge his instant kill attack
>>333591618
I normally roll my eyes at posts like this, but that is a LOT of CA.

When dying stops being bad and video games no longer have users I guess
>>333592785
The big stupid ground explosion thing he does?
Yeah, it took me until getting fed up and looking at a video on how to beat him before I figured that shit out.
>>333592874
Is there actually anything in the game at any point that tells you how to avoid it?
>>333591405
It's not completely terrible, t b h. The world is nicely interconnected, the challenge areas are pretty cool and challenging, and I feel like they could do much better with their nex game. Still worth playing about once, if you're into this kind of game.
>>333592785
>>333592874
>>333593032
>being completely retarted
That wasn't obvious? It was literally the first thing I thought of.
>>333593032
Nope, gotta figure that shit out some-fucking-how.
The game feels overly convoluted at times just because it's trying to copy Souls and has this "hardcore" attitude about it and it just feels like a fucking mess.
>>333591405
Better than Dork Souls
>>333593104
I tried running to the other side of the area
Then I tried whacking him out of the attack
Then I tried looking for a lever or something to interact with
Then after looking around for a bit while he was charging his attack again I just decided to step into one of those platforms
Good concepts and a flawed execution.
There were a lot of little things I liked

>retarded gauntlet that as complete shit and not needed
Its average not terrible not great. I rolled strength for my first run and one shot almost all normal enemies. Those fuckhuge shield guys didnt pose a threat at all. The only trouble I had with the game was graveyard boss cause im retarded. Also the spider boss, because everything is so slow and that fucker can heal himself mid fight.
using chromatic diarrhea full time should be punishable by repeated beatings with a hose
>>333593387
Not really
>>333591405
I enjoyed the one playthrough I made. Don't think I would have gone for a second though.
>>333594097
>perfectly timing melee attacks uses less stamina
This was really good. I would really like to see this in Dark Souls, there is literally nothing wrong with it. It rewards timing, and keeps you from spamming attacks like a motherfucker.
>two-handing a weapon with a shield on your back, shield will actually block damage
Sounds like it could be exploitable for PvP, I think?
>only 2 locations, both snowy castles
There's also the maze area, and the challenge areas (some of which were pretty cool).
>all weapons have the same move-set in their categories. Literally just skin and stat changes
Weapons have different speed, as well.
Overall agreed, though.
>>333594849
Shield was half as effective on your back though and you could still be staggered by big hits

FromSoft couldn't even program command queueing that doesn't bug out more often than comfortable. What makes you think they are capable of programming frame-specific inputs and linking them with animations?
>>333595129
>only one post in the entire thread commenting on how you are factually incorrect in your terminology
>XxDDD U MAD BRO AHAH U MAD xDd DDD
>>333595052
Maybe you should actually play Dark Souls beyond the tutorial instead of getting stuck on the first boss, and experience it for yourself.
It was an okay game lacking many aspects that made Souls series stand out but still fun to play and better than the majority of the shit that came out that year.
I fucking /thread this myself now.
>>333595129
Why is this the default response in these situations? "I may be stupid, but I bet you're mad!"
Assuming somebody is mad when you've clearly done something dumb won't make a difference, if anything it makes it worse.
In the future, just move on. People make mistakes all the time, but it's always made worse when they try to hide it/deny it.
>>333595406
And getting mad because someone on the internet said something stupid is even more retarded. Good day, sir.
>>333595141
>FromSoft couldn't even program command queueing that doesn't bug out more often than comfortable.
What exactly are you referring to?
>What makes you think they are capable of programming frame-specific inputs and linking them with animations?
Hope.
>>333595563
No, it really isn't, that's a juvenile thought. Even less so when there's no evidence they're mad. The other Anon insults you, and you instantly assume he's mad? Grow up.
>Good day, sir.
Are you trying to make people cringe?
>>333591679
>>333595729
>What exactly are you referring to?
Command queueing being bugged. Pay attention.
>>333591405
Fighting enemies in this game is the biggest fucking chore and I don't know how it got through playtesting.
>fatfucks with big shields, break their guard
>your characters takes 20 years to attack so the enemy is able to recover AND attack before you do
>if you block their attack and try to counter, the same shit happens

Worst $12 I've ever fucking spent.
>>333596437
We're talking about Lords of the Fallen, not Dark Souls.
>>333591405
My favorite thing about lords of the fallen is seeing just how badly each weapon is used. Like they literally went out of their way to wield each weapon in the most retarded manner possible.
>>333596437
I'm almost certain the tower shield fucks are in the game to force players to learn to parryIt didn't work, players just chip damage and trade hits for eight hours, instead learning to hate the game
the worst shield enemies in any game ever
>>333592553
Worshiper is easy mode
>>333593032
Yeah, there's an audio note you can pick up basically saying that the little shrines can protect you from harm or something.
Anti-Denuvo and Fromdrones are mad as fuck that a sequel has already been confirmed. It's a better, Western take on the Souls formula with greater than Japanese production values that blows Bloodborne out of the water.

This game was massive disappointment. The whole game takes place in only three small areas. There are only a handful of enemy types. Strength weapons are so powerful that everything else is garbage in comparison. The gauntlet is useless. Enemies can stunlock you to oblivion even with weak attacks but they will barely flinch at all when hit with your weapons. That makes daggers and fist weapons useless. Pretty much the game boils down to two handing a greatsword with flawless luck runes in it and doing the running jump attack over and over until you see the credits roll. The only thing this game did well was that no matter what you equipped you looked badass from start to finish. That's it.

the adds take damage from the massive aoe the boss does, so you can just ignore them.
>>333593239
>>333593032
there is a note that tells you that those shrines will protect you, if you dont listen to it it's your problem.

its okay but story is boring and equipment is ugly

>anit-denuvo
Lords of the fallen was the first Denuvo game to be cracked m8.
When will people get it? As much as /v/ gets completely apeshit afore every major release, the consensus a few months after is generally trustworthy.
>>333603791
That's not true. First was Dragon Age Inquisition by 3DM. Lords of the fails was cracked like 5 or so months later by Conspiracy because 3DM didn't give a fuck about it.
