Dark Souls 2 is unplayable for me. I don't know how SotFS changed shit, but this game was pretty poor in level-design, enemy placement, and enemy design.
I cannot play a game where dozens of copy pasted, same move set, 360 tracking, massive hitbox wielding, humanoid sponges chase me. Mob type enemy placement is the chief enemy placement type in the game and it is literally the most boring and unfair form of "challenge" that there is.
>inb4 hurr durr you are not fighting them correctly
In areas like the Dragon Shine, for example, with some of the worst fucking enemies in all of video games, (muh infinite stamina) sure you can wait out and bait each enemy one at a time. But it's literally forcing you to play to one style. You MUST play incredibly cautious and defensive in order to not get mobbed by multiple waves of enemies. This is in an example of boring, restrictive gameplay. This occurs in multiple areas.
Not only this, but there are areas in the following levels that have aggro mobs, so you don't even get the aformentioned oppurtunity to play safe:
- Brume Tower: Tons of humanoid areas sprout up out of the ground, pack full certain rooms, and so on.
- FEL outskirts: I literally stopped trying this area after 3 times because that's how easy it is to see how fucking terribly designed this shit is.
- The Gutter: There are enemies fucking everywhere. The core elements of the level are at odds with each other. You can feasibly go along the wall and tediously remove all of the statues (which respawn anyway IIRC) maybe if there weren't tons of enemies that are going to inevitably aggro once you enter their area.
- Brightstone Cove Tseldora: This area is not unfair or even annoying. It's just so fucking boring. It does not offer any unique type of enemy placement or challenege outside of there being tons of channelers and spiders in a given room. It's just lazy fucking enemy placement.
Shrine of Armana: Sorcerers are constantly aggro and there are many of them. Again, a constant path (see the Gutter) with fucktons of projectile enemies. It's very plain and very boring.
the Undead Crypt: The boss door enemy placement is possibly the worst I have ever seen. It's quite similar to a Mario Maker level.
I'm not even going to get into fucking level design.
it was made by amateurs that tried to copy and paste the ideas from DaS
it only shows you how much thought goes into a well designed game

I'm a newfag when it comes to downloading games.
I watched this video https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lhszwVG9sVA on how to download and burn games, but the only decent version of xbox360 Skyrim downloads as shown in the image.
Are the steps different?
The reason I'm confused is because the file types are different than the file types in the video and there are many more.

Is this the new epitome of day one dlc? I don't remember them saying in the nintendo direct that you'd have to pay 40 bucks for the other storyline. I may be a bit salty

touche. although I'm sure most of us just rented the other from blockbuster
Does this game have good public servers like Project Reality? Ones you can jump into and get good teamwork in 100+ player battles?
Nope
Not at all.
I think it is kinda one of the biggest weaknesses on the entire series. If BI would be competent (which they are not) they would have placed alot more thought into multiplayer.
>>320026442
I thought the entire point of these was multiplayer

Just finished this and holy shit is it good. Are you looking for a stellar single player FPS? Look no further. This has it all.

What's with everyone playing this recently? Been countless threads over the past few days. Funnily enough just finished it last night for the first time.

Fuck off, it was shit.
ITT: We discuss the best possible way to play each Final Fantasy game. After some deliberation, I've come to these conclusions:
>I
20th Anniversary Edition for PSP (You could get this on 3DS instead if you really care about added stereoscopic 3D)
>II
20th Anniversary Edition for PSP
>III
Steam version, which from what I can tell is a slightly upgraded version of the DS remake
>IV
If you want 3D graphics (which imo aren't very good), go for the Steam edition. If you want very good 2D graphics, go for the PSP edition. The PSP version also has a remake of The After Years and an Interlude connecting IV with it, if you really care about that stuff.
>V
GBA version. That is, unless you don't mind the Steam edition's horrible GUI and sloppy environmental graphics.
>VI
SNES version + Ted Woolsey Uncensored with Bugfixes patch. The GBA version has bugfixes and a more accurate translation, but imo the patch provides both of those but with the fun of Ted Woolsey's original localization. Plus, the GBA version has an ugly brightened palette and inferior sound even with the Sound Restoration patch.
>VII
PS1/PSN. The only reason to own the PC versions is add mods including buxfixes and some updated field models, but those don't look right doing animations intended for the original super low-poly field models, plus super well-rendered polygons atop low-res prerendered backgrounds does not look cohesive at all. I'm pretty sure the PSN version has an option for a softening filter, but if you wanna just emulate on PC, make sure you have a shader to soften out the whole image and make it look right.
>VIII
I haven't looked into this much, but the PS1 version is probably better. The PC version may have low-quality FMVs, and I know for sure that you'd have to patch the (superior) original PS1 soundtrack in.
>IX
PSN, unless you'd like to emulate it on PC to make the 3D graphics look better, though that would be silly unless you like high fidelity 3D graphics atop pre-rendered backgrounds.
Are the best versions of I and II really the PSP ports? They're stupidly easy, just WAY too easy, and I remember I being kind of a challenge in Origins on PSX. It doesn't really matter tho since I and II are shit.
The PSP graphics of IV are terrible, just terrible. Not clean at all, the font is a huge mess, the battle sprites are fairly generic, the shadows are horrible, it's a pretty horrible and generic game art for a port, really.
5-9, original versions are the best.
Cont'd
>X
If you like the original version's sonudtrack better, you'll have to stick with the original PS2 edition. If that doesn't bother you, then obviously go for the HD version on PS4.
>XI
PC. But is this even active anymore?
>XII
PS2 is literally the only way to play it. If your comp can run PCSX2 well, play it in that for HD graffix.
>XIII
PC version with updates, or just PS3 if you don't want to bother with all that.
>XIV
Obviously, PC is the only way to play it. I think I heard this one's only good after some updates.
>tfw playing VII on PSP
