Re: Demon's Souls: How to Beat the Adjudicator Boss

ChromaticDracula

Killed him first try on first play through. The level itself kicked my buttocks but Adjudicator went right down from a flurry of fireballs.
NG+? Nope. One-shotted me as soon as I entered the fight.
After reading this article, now I now see he has a crow and stuff. I beat him so quick and from so far away the first time I didn’t even know what he looked like!
I’m currently waiting for my MP to replenish itself, leaving this comment, before trying again while keeping your tips in mind.
Thanks.

Re: Weird Metal Gear Tweets are Making People Think an Announcement Is Coming Next Week

ChromaticDracula

With Metal Gear 3 being my personal least favorite, I’ll be extremely happy with a 2 remake or rerelease. This story was mind blowing to me when I played it. And the cutscenes and Harry Gregson Williams music are like... next level.
But it sounds like it’s “4 boxes”, so maybe 1-4 are coming, like a collection for current gen. I’ll be stoked either way.
They can keep their Metal Gear Survive though.

Re: The Latest Returnal Trailer Is One of Its Best Yet

ChromaticDracula

@GamingFan4Lyf Oh yeah! I forgot I had Nier. I myself also just got that because it was finally cheap enough for me

I got a tad annoyed though.. I played through until I met the other character after that first big boss. I died shortly after and for whatever reason it started me back at the very beginning of the game; it never saved any progress from that (hour?) of gameplay I did. It never explained to me how saving works and I still don't know what I did wrong (admittedly, I never search online about it either). I haven't gone back to it since that first play through about 2 months ago. I will eventually but that really ticked me off and put a bad taste in my mouth. But yeah, they kinda did the bullet-hell thing in a tasteful way. That wouldn't bother me much if Returnal was like that too — very good point/example!

Re: Bloodborne PS5 Version Spotted on PlayStation Store, But It's Probably a Bug

ChromaticDracula

Huge fan of Dark Souls here,
I didn’t care for bloodborne. I am not one to complain or comment on frame rates but WOW it was jarring going from DS1 and DS3’s fluid 60fps. That being said, I know there’s a massive fanbase for the game and so I hope this comes for those who want it! It would go a long way to make it more enjoyable.
I’ll keep playing my Demons Souls and Dark Souls, thank you.

Re: Evil Inside Sure Does Look Like P.T.

ChromaticDracula

:: shrugs :: I dunno, I think it looks good. I was watching Alison Road and that got cancelled. Was watching Visage and I am waiting to pull the trigger this weekend because it’s on sale. And now this.

To me, I still need something that plays like PT and is actually a finished game.
Right now Visage looks like the best choice and it rated well, to boot. Now we have this as an option.
I count 2 games and 1 of them isn’t even out yet so the market is not saturated and is in need of some pants wetting.
Count me in.

Re: There's Recurring Chatter of an Extended Death Stranding for PS5, PS4

ChromaticDracula

Well this is exciting, sure! I never finished the original admittedly. I got really far and then I think I got sidetracked with something else in my backlog, or something new came out. Anyway, I loved it and would equally love a PS5 version or whatever. Anything Kojima does I'd buy. If Kojima farted into a microphone and the game was showing the wave lengths and noise spikes from it, I'd buy it (on sale).

I wonder if it'll be a free upgrade or a whole new release sort of.

Re: Soapbox: Why You Should Play Shenmue I & II on PS4

ChromaticDracula

Really enjoyed reading through this. And I agree: an article of this tone absolutely needs to be posted. I feel lots of gamers who never played this are going to be shocked at how it plays and the pacing of it all. But it is almost like required reading; you NEED to play this game. It's just you need to have the correct expectations going in.
