Did you get your copy yet, /v/?
>>332012919
How the fuck is everyone getting copies to play early?
>>332012919
By asking them politely.
>>332012919
Who #cancelledpreorder here?
>>332013117
You stream and get at least 1 viewer on YouTube or Twitch
Email Namco about it, then they'll say you can have it as long
as you keep streaming it.
>>332012919
I hate KP also barney shit reeeee etc.
>>332013272
No, but I got my pre-order in at my local piracy website.
>>332012919
The backlash towards this is the perfect example of gamer entitlement.
>>332013356
>implying Namco is giving copies to just anyone who has a YT channel.
>>332012919
SHE DOESN'T DESERVE A COPY I DO
REEEEEEEEEEEEE
>streaming is still popular
>>332013771
Of course it is.

There's practically no difference between 900p and 1080p
>>332013117
luck and asking.
Its Hyrule warriors legends all over again. Its right there on my steam page and I cant just buy it and play it.
Who do I contact anyways? Their twitter or email?
>>332012919
Is he here yet? Delete the thread before his autism gets here.
>>332014819
I'm so happy GarfieldKart is back on Twitter again
we should all email namco, does anyone have the exact email we should send it to?
>>332012919
>there are people who still associate themselves with MLP
>>332014995
you're too late at this point. since they tweeted the email address they're so far behind that actual youtube people haven't gotten responses for 2 days now
>>332012919
>a fucking horsefucker gets the game
torrent when?
Replaying dark souls 2 is making me so fucking angry that all my hype will be dead within 3 weeks.
It's offensively bad compared to everything else in the souls series.
>>332016090
Never ever.
>>332015675
It's gone again.
>>332012919
you mean the japanese copies turning into english?
or are they giving away copies now for streamers?
>>332012919
Bronies don't deserve this game.
>>332017089
Latter
>>332017167
so anyone who streams can get a copy?
that sounds like the sweetest deal/

I have 170 youtube subs I could probably get a copy if I sent a mature email :^)
>>332013356
I might actually attempt this now.
Sent my email, it sounded autistic but that was on purpose lmao.
>All of the people telling on DSP to Bamco's Twitter because DSP used the workaround
>>332017573
can't hurt to try,
>>332017668
which email precisely would be that?
>>332017290
The final boss is the amalgamation of basically anyone who linked the fire at some point.
They just use hyper versions of PVP playstyles.
>>332012919
What kind of crap is this?
Torrent leak when?!
>>332017707
>DSP is playing DSIII before you
It's over,my lifeis finished.
>>332014586
>>332017836
Didn't you hear? It uses denuvo so there won't be any crack even if there's a torrent.
I e-mailed them but no reply
This is total bullshit
>>332013356
Who exactly would you email?
>>332014819
Kek
>>332017836
Apparently someone got a review copy of the game and is in the process of releasing it.
>>332012919
Who is this? Where can I find her play?
>>332018160
>my parents failed to give me attention during my upbringing so now i stream please give me a copy
Something along that.
Has any of you actually gotten a key?
>>332018047
I keep hearing that it isn't though.
no, i have to wait until the 14th
>>332018383
Well, other games that has denuovo has yet to be cracked.
>>332018351
I'm currently struggling to using the "I'm a mexican streamer card"
>>332018351
I don't think anyone outside reviewers or streamers has actually gotten the game from emailing them, just bullshitting to piss people off.
I'm tired of youtube "celebs" getting early copies of shit. It's unfair. I don't even fucking watch youtube, what am I 13 years old? This is bullshit and I'm just about to cancel my order of Dark Souls because of this favortism shit.
>>332012919
Is she a nor/mlp/erson?
Do we ask /mlp/ for help?
>>332018301
Thanks for the help dude.
>>332017707
Why is that even an issue?
Does this play more like Bloodborne?
one of these faggots needs to leak the game files
clearly, any retard can get it.
Why is Namco-Bandai giving out all these copies?
Don't they want to make money?
>>332018762
It looks like a mixture of the two, it still has the slower pace of the Souls games but it is a bit faster combat wise.
How is giving early free copies to streamers/youtubers a good deal for publishers when theres millions of faggots these days who prefer to just watch them than playing the games themselves?
>>332018895
Well Bandai Namco is not known for smart decisions.
>people actually watch other people play video games on youtube
literally why?
I can't help but feel like they are alienating a huge chunk of fanbase by letting them wait 3 weeks and meanwhile any retard with a facecam can play it.
This is strictly on a emotional level though but still feels bad.
>>332018728
This. I'm pretty sure they don't actually fucking care, as long as he's streaming it.
>>332014586
1080p is definitely better but if a game looks good it will still look good at 900p
>>332012919
>fucking bronies are playing it
i might become barneyfag now
there are 5 people streaming the pc version to under <50 viewers. a few <30 viewers. i really need to start a viewbotted stream so i can get free games early.
>>332018848
This is why. Normies who otherwise would have no interest in the game will notice the surge in popularity. It's like they're advertising the game for them by streaming it.
Who would actually watch these streams or videos? Fans of actual dark souls would not watch it because they don't want to get spoiled. I really don't understand this.
I have 10 followers and 399 views, can I get a free copy?
>>332019317
>blackjack
>>332019004
Because no more demos and no more piracy
Something is up with this system though, apparently Elajjaz, one of the biggest Souls streamer and also speedrunner, couldn't get himself a copy.
>>332019386

PC LEAK WHEN????
AGGHHH I am getting mad.
>>332019425
Yes.
>>332019968
I'm pretty sure there's a torrent floating around on private trackers already.
>>332019968
Just two more hours now.
>>332019968
when the people who have it realize that none of the builds are tagged because bamco are absolute retards.
OP is incredibly cute though.
>>332018625
Not unless it involves porn
>>332018603
This is gamer entitlement in action folks.
>>332020341
What if they did and there's no way to know unless by some high level decryption?
>>332012919
Nope, souls is crap.
>>332016090
gamer entitlement
>>332018603
Aww boo hoo
Bandai Namco is handling this game as worst as they can, it's almost like if they want the fans to get angry at them. Like what the hell? How can they fuck up so much? And it won't even matter if the game is good or not because Bandai Namco is ruining it for everybody already.
>>332019681
Because he doesn't appeal to non-fans.
>>332020910
They don't care. Their deal with FromSoftware ends after Dark Souls 3 releases.
>>332020910
its made me grown to hate namco and streamer/youtuber nobodies even more now. mostly pissed at streamers that haven't touched a souls game until recently just to work up to 3
>>332020910
No one cared when Nintendo had the private Splatoon servers for reviewers.
>>332012919
man barneyfag asleep at the wheel on this one, was expecting this thread to be derailed but nope, stayed on topic
So is this gonna be good or should I get Ratchet & Clank?
>>332021109
get star fox zero
I just sent the most fawning email to namco bandai, wish me luck /v/
>open Steam forums
>70% of the threads are people complaining about streamers playing it early
>10% are of people complaining about the new requirements

>no actual discussions about the fucking game
>>332021237
but I don't have a Wii U
>>332021023
That was for reviewers, not e-celebs. Not only are Bamco giving e-celebs the right to spoil the entire game a month in advance but they're also blocking anyone from even reviewing it.
>>332019317
It's not "like" advertisement. It is fucking advertisement.
I asked yesterday night because I actually stream and review, how long until I should wait to expect a reply?
>>332021291
Why would there be discussions about the game? Nobody in there has even played it
>>332021338
Then get Ratchet and Clank
>>332021346
Major Sonic fans got review copies of Rise of Lyric to play through a week early instead of reviewers.

>>332021448
Yeah but there's info online already, like covenants and weapons. It would be fun to talk about those before the game comes out.
I actually e-mailed them but didn't get a response so i'll be pirating
>>332012919
Who is she and why does she deserve a copy?
I was okay with chineses playing the game earlier, but SJWs too? Unacceptable.
>>332020597
they distributed the build via steam keys with special permissions. everyone downloads the same build from the same depot. it's literally impossible to be tagged beyond "this is the press build".

Sometimes I have the impression that most people who post on Steam forums are from /v/, it's so fucking similar to this place it scares me.
>>332021549
Nobody would want to circlejerk over that shit, they'd rather just play the game themselves. In fact, most people are actively avoiding spoilers and can't join any discussions about that sort of thing until they play for themselves.

>>332013771
this.
play video games don't watch them.
>>332022180
ok now im 100% torrenting this shit.
>>332022265
because this time namco gave free copies to around 100 streamers 1 month before the game releases in the west.
and the paying customer gets cucked.
>>332022265
that's not the problem, they are giving streamers the ENGLISH version 3 weeks early.
>>332022180
Why did I give this guy views? Fuck you.
i got mine and i only get like 100 viewers on twitch
>>332022180
How is this relevant to anything
>>332022272
Not everyone can buy an electric guitar, anon
>>332019968
Just wait you childish cunt. Stay away from the internet if you don't like spoilers and find something else to play in the meantime. I'm as big a Souls fan as the next guy but it's two weeks.
>>332022423
upload it faggot
>>332022538
Shitty comparison, you need to be 18 to post here, kid
>>332012919

>>332022342

Another thing that has been happening for decades.
Next you're going to complain that they didn't fly you out to their studio to play an alpha build.
I just sent them an email with attached doctors records that I made up saying that I have terminal brain cancer and I want to play Dark Souls 3 before I die.
heres hoping.

>>332022756

>>332017290
no its the choesn undead
>>332022931
Of you could just pay $20 and get 1,000 viewbots and followers. I got the game easily.
>>332023072
That's much more sad than what that other anon said.
>>332023174
Paying 20 dollars to get a 60 dollar game 3 weeks early is sad? Okay.

>>332022375
you don't give em views or anything if you exit the video before the 1 minute mark
>>332022995
yeah they were given for magazines to review the game.
not for faggots to play through the game on youtube and twitch and spoil the entire thing.

yeah, the same guys that said the Countess of Ashes was the final boss.
Fake as shit.

I hate that we have to wait, but don't give false hope.

if someone actually had a review copy leaked and was working on cracking it, they wouldn't announce it on reddit.
if a leak copy shows up, it will be unannounced.

Stop being dense. He means video game companies have always handed out free copies to reviewers.
It's just nowadays people don't go to magazines or website for reviews, they watch let's plays instead. From is just keeping up with the market.
>>332023842

How long does it take to get a response from them? I sent the email 2 days ago now.

>>332013771
I remember being a kid and hating watching my friend play, because i could be playing myself.
Now kids are paying to watch someone else play. When did kids get this fucking stupid
>>332024387
I just got it, no response for 2 days basically means that you won't get it. If you are expecting a response from them saying "no", it won't happen.
>>332022063
His response is pretty sad, but so is the way the industry handles things like this. They definitely prey on people with hype and try to make it seem like you're missing out if you don't pony up $60 day one (or earlier in this case) for the next big thing.
>>332024789
How'd you get a response?
>>332024646
I used to love when my roommates in college watched me play. Or if I had limited time and couldn't play myself, watching them play games. Games are fun as fuck to watch/play with people you like and shoot the shit, although I agree the hordes of kids who don't do it anymore themselves is getting silly.
>>332022063
that whole thread is sad and even a streamer is trying to defend himself and gettin ripped on
>>332024646
Kids are so cucked nowadays even their fun is had by someone else.
>>332012919
I got a code for DS3 , and will post it in a thread if I see one up tomorrow.
At a friends place for the night
>>332013117
Namco realized that people have learned they can import digital copies, and that DS3 might as well be in binary.
Just ask for a copy.

What if I gave you my email? Would you give me it?
>>332025553
I know, but what did you say? Did you give them your actual Twitch or something with lots of views? Or lied?
I can understand giving out 10 copies to prominent youtubers, and 10 to twitch people + the usual 'mainstream' vidya reviewers. But a hundred people? What the fuck is going on?
It feels like from and Namco don't give a shit anymore, which makes me worry about the quality of the game.
>>332025690
I gave them my twitch and youtube channel, also my linkedIn profile. I think the latter also helped because I'm sort of in the industry.
>>332025795
Shit, well I guess I'm fucked then.
>>332025795

Just look at the desperation at the two posts below yours.

>Cracking would take less than 24 hours

>"Oh no I'd hate for Bamco to blacklist me and my two week old Twitch account from any future games because I leaked even though they'd have no way of knowing it's me"
Fuck these faggots, we could all be enjoying the game right now if everybody wasn't a huge pussy. I bought the game, it's on my Steam account, the game is ready to go, and I can't fucking play it. Fuck Bamco, I'm mad jelly and angry.
>>332027185
twitch streamers are too retarded to know how to upload a cd/digital download.
>>332026890
Absolutely pathetic, I remember when /v/ didn't buy early access season pass games. Wasn't it FROM who said specifically they don't release DLC as they believe in releasing a finished game? Around the DS2 launch.
>Create a type of game that relies on no prior knowledge of the intricacies of areas for the proper experience and first reactions to areas/namedrops

You wont get a response now unless youre an A-list e-celeb. Everyone and their Mother is spamming them with emails now.
I sent one this month on the 3rd and pretended to be a writer for a section of my campus' newspaper that focuses on gaming. Offered no credentials at all just linked some random gaming club's website from some University. God a key the next morning.
I'd leak it but my internet is wet garbage. Under 320kb/s upload rate.
>>332028583
Damn, that's a good idea.
>>332028583
What email did you use, anon? Not sure where to send one.
>>332028583
>under 320kb/s upload rate
Anon you could leave that shit on one night while you sleep and it'd be done, or nearly done, by morning. If it was a 40kb/s speed or something I would understand, but that's not that bad.
>>332028583
You could totally still do it on the upload speed.
But then again you're lying so who cares.
>>332013771
I know the term "Cuck" became a buzzword meme, But watching streams or lets plays is basically being cucked
A Cuck watches his wife gets fugged by someone else instead of doing it himself. A guy who watches letsplay watches someone else playing the game.
So memes aside, watching streams and lets plays makes you an actual cuck
>>332019968
give me 5 minutes
torrent where?
>>332013117
gotta be famous on the internet kid, like me.
>>332029648
NEVAR!
>>332029461
So that means watching any porn would make you a cuck too?
>>332029174
>>332029352
its actually much lower than that.
By the time I get it uploaded it will already be cracked and shit, I'm sure.
>>332029975
The difference is that you will eventually have the chance to play that game, but we all know you will never get the chance to fuck a woman
>>332012919
Just got mine today from Amazon.
>>332029975
But pornstars aren't "mine" i dont give two shits about them, they're just bimbos.
Dks3 is something i care about, and DSP has his grimy hands all over her while all i can do is fug my demons souls case and cry from the chafing.
>>332030186
Nice fake :)
>>332030128
Just get a hold of RG Mechanics/Skidrow/Whoever and hash things out with them. If they've already got access to a copy and are in the process of cracking it then great, if not then you might be the one to get it done even if it takes a while. Better to get the game a week early than not at all.
>>332030128
Well fuck you then.
>>332017290

>>332030212
But that's not "your" game, it'll be yours when you buy it, it's like a brothel that made a bunch of clones of one woman and it's selling them, they are just fucking a clone that you'll eventually buy too.

I'll let it upload while I'm sleeping. I cant leave it running when I'm using my PC though cause it rapes my connection and my PC turns into a commodore 64 64 when I'm uploading anything.
I'm gonna get shit on for bringing up an "e-celeb", but I find it ironic that in the midst of all this, ENB isn't on the bandwagon. He probably has the game thanks to his connections, but he's blacking himself out anyways until its NA release.
I wish more people would have done that.

At this point I doubt anybody else is going to leak it since it would have leaked already.
I'm not gonna tell you what to do but if you really do have it, what's the point in not doing it overnight?

That said, if retail copies end up having Denuvo, I hope some faggot does upload it.

I was honestly thinking it would have been leaked by now or very soon. I dont know why it hasnt, Considering they just handed me a copy. And I know its not tagged or anything because it was literally just a steam key that let me download the game files instead of the preload. Also from just a quick look at the legal section of the electronic form I had to sign I dont think they could do shit.
