Official Discussion [MEGATHREAD] Tarnished Edition: Worth $5? Discuss CONSTRUCTIVELY!

627 Upvotes

Since the sub is being overwhelmed by debate over the $5 "microtransaction" and it's making the sub feel like we're Dark Souls 2 a decade ago, with the faux outrage around the preorder items, we are opening this topic to consolidate discussion around the issue.

Please use this topic to discuss the pros and cons of the approach and your thoughts. But do so RESPECTFULLY and CONSTRUCTIVELY. If you need to call other people or the developers names, you don't have a good argument and your post will be removed.

We will remove all other topics about this to keep the subreddit flowing with other discussions

IF YOU WANT TO VOTE: I will post two comments on this topic, "Yay" and "Nay" - upvote the one you agree with and we'll see who wins long term.

Discussion & Info I'm just realizing that this fucker is legitimately kind of scary

Post image
2.1k Upvotes

I'm currently on my third or fourth playthrough of the DLC, and I'm noticing for the first time that this fucker is deeply unsettling and actually kind of scary. I guess it's because I'm usually so busy panic rolling around the arena or fighting with the camera that I've never really paid attention to him, but this time I've realized how much I don't like it. It's movement's are extremely unnatural, it watches you with those dead eyes, and the humanoid legs underneath come at you like pyramid head or something. And it fuckin' rattles. I think if FromSoft put all of this energy into an actual horror game it would rival anything else you could compare it to. I can't be the only one to come to this conclusion, can I?

Discussion & Info How do people kill bosses in such a few attempts?

• Upvotes

I see most people saying they kill bosses in less than 10 attempts, but for me it takes over 20 lot of times. Im fighting godrick rn and im 30 attempts in. I think can beat him in the next 10 but still, also for example ulcerated tree spirit took me around 120 attempts. My total deaths are ~570

beat pcr today, after 14 hours for a period of 6 days, deaths? I lost count. I'm speechless, I was screaming like a monkey and my mom literally yelled at me for doing that, it's been a long ride and this mf really gave me a hard time. I haven't used summons just so to experience the peer pressure everyone felt while fighting him,think I made a grave mistake in doing so and it took me so long and I was about to give up but kept trying and at the end, I won!

I really liked pcr, he can be so annoying but man, this guy made my heart race like anything, the thrill and pressure this fight put upon me was beyond explanation.

I just changed my outfit to my previous one which I was wearing for a very long time, this mf made me change it, i rested at the site of grace for a couple of minutes, think both me and my tarnished need some rest to process our victory

My total playtime was 217 hours, BEST GAME EVER MADE
