everyone did

I did too. Too many debilitating mechanics that just suck the fun right out of the game.

I purchased Dragons Dogma 2 and Ronin on release day. Played about 4 hours of DD2 and about 2 hours of Ronin. But now I really have no interest in going back to either one of them. Don't know why, just in a gaming funk.

Not really feeling it. Maybe that will change before August, idk. But it just looks like another formulaic copy and paste open world clone. 

Are we still having fun with this? It’s kinda turned into a walking simulator for me. I might need a break, idk. 

So I caved in and bailed on the archer class. Got tired of getting bum rushed with no ability to block or evade. Also the stamina absolutely sucks for this class. Gonna try fighter class for a bit and see if I can stop dying at nearly every enemy encounter. 

Man, my archer sucks. But I’m gonna ride it out knowing full well there’s better classes. Yep. Gonna die on that hill.

Greenwarish herbs in your inventory heal if yoy don't have a mage that heals you. The herbs are a basic healing item along with most food and you can craft a bunch of different concoctions and recipes to heal even further.

I have healing items but they’re greyed out and I can’t use them. I mixed herbs and made harspud juice or whatever, and still can’t use it.

I guess I just need to pay $1.99 to heal.

ha ha….ha…

yea. 

About an hour in. Still can’t figure out how to heal 

I’ll probably cave and get this sooner than later. Reviews and impressions have been a bit better than I expected. But I’m currently dl’ing DD2 so I’m sure I’ll be busy with that for a while. But it’s good to have something to fall back on later. And I’m glad this game is a thing so I permanently delete Sekiro. Good riddance. 

I also remember one of my pawns never stopped talking so I threw him off a cliff. Yep. He dead. Only later I discovered you could limit commentary from your pawns in the main town.
 

Welp.

Definitely having a healer as your main pawn is huge. 

Almost breaks the game though in terms of difficulty. I remember hardly ever dying or even coming close in the first one. Only until late game did I encounter difficulties in staying alive. lol

If I were Paul I would be concerned that Mike isn't just there to collect a huge payday and participate in the exhibition match. I got a feeling Iron Mike gonna try and show the world he is still the baddest mother fucker on the planet and that Paul is nothing but a side show sham. I'd love to see Tyson knock him out in the first round

You have no idea how much I hope that happens. If Paul gets violently KO’d stiff in the opening round, I’ll probably laugh my head off. Does that make me bad person? Dunno. Come at me.

God I wish it were 1987 right now. Tyson would litteraly knock Paul's head clean off. Not joking @skillzdadirecta

100 percent. Prime or even amateur Tyson would beat Paul 1000 out of 1000 times. Jake wouldn't even survive half of the first round. But like DarkStar189 said, this is just a glorified exhibition match.

Money money money. They'll manufacture some make believe drama leading up to the fight, some pushing and shoving yada yada. This fight is all about theater and revenue.

Still can't believe this and Rise of Ronin are releasing the same day. Seems like it's been a while since two AAA games have released together like this.

Yea there's really no reason to ever return to DS2 when Elden Ring exists, even DS3 for that matter. Both games are FAR superior in every way, especially Elden Ring.

Sony about to go full 3rd party...

Scared Relic Sword Wave of Gold spam in that area is easier, nets more runes and is idk.. More satisfying lol

  Every time I go to that specific location, I keep forgetting I have that sword. My goofy self keeps spamming arrows at that bird. But yea, I can’t believe From never patched that area so I just keep exploiting the crap out of it.

Ok, nice. Maybe it's because of the time of day. Like vic said, maybe the hype of the dlc trailer will make this even more active. 

Yea on Sunday, people are at home gaming as God intended.

I played roughly 2 hours. A lot of basics I forgot so I'm glad I started over. I was trying to summon help but nobody came. I assume not many are playing this anymore. 

Naw bro it's still a very active community. I just played this past Sunday and nearly every summon area I passed had multiple signs on the ground. And I'm always seeing the online ghosts wherever I go.

Welp. I guess I need to farm the bird and the little alien bros to prepare for this!

Yea I can’t even get in. Been trying for over 30 mins 

They just had to put that fat ass elephant on there
