TheLeon Posted September 22, 2023 Share Posted September 22, 2023 The cathedral boss kicked my ass a bunch of times. Finally got it just by being patient, waiting for good times to jump in and chip away at it, instead of rushing and trying to kill him as quickly as possible.

TheLeon Posted September 23, 2023 Share Posted September 23, 2023 Mildly annoyed: found a treasure map, but when I got to the location, nothing is there. I even watched a video of someone collecting it just to make 100% sure I was in the right spot (I was). It was back in the first stage of the game, but it’s not something I picked up my first time through the area, if that’s even possible. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TheLeon Posted September 23, 2023 Share Posted September 23, 2023 Just finished the opera house level. Felt like a step up in difficulty; the normal enemies were noticeably tougher, and that was my favorite boss so far. Tough but really fun. It’s been 8 years since Bloodborne. A good game in that style is exciting. It’s not as good as Bloodborne, but few games are. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

eventide11 Posted September 23, 2023 Share Posted September 23, 2023 Only beat the first mini boss and got a door key but I think I'm gonna be playing this for a few..

Deleted it off my hard drive to make room for this. By the time I’m done with this the Cyberpunk DLC will be out, so I’ll be replaying that game. I’m also slowly making my way through Sea of Stars. No room for a game that felt like a chore. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yea, I can understand how you can feel Starfield can be boring. It moves really slow but I'm personally obsessed with it. I fired up Cyberpunk 2.0 today and already noticed the police force was in action. I will be replaying it after Starfield along with the dlc.

Same boat really. Starfield is a great game but there is SOOO much to manage and keep up with and remember etc etc. Its why I haven't tried BG3 yet. Afraid of all the micro management and overwhelming amount of content, I just wouldn't ever finish it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nublood Posted September 23, 2023 Share Posted September 23, 2023 I’m having an unexpectedly pretty good time with this. Most everything seems pretty straightforward. But I have no idea how P Organ works. I put points into an extended dodge and an extra consumable but have no idea how to activate them. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I didn't really care for the demo but dang if the full game didn't pull me in with a little bit of difficulty. Easily the best soulsborne like I've played. And P Organ.. 🤔 Alllllllrighty Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TheLeon Posted September 25, 2023 Share Posted September 25, 2023 Yeah, the P Organ system is weird. You pick upgrades to slot into other upgrades to eventually unlock those second upgrades. It kinda feels like they tried really hard to come up with a unique skill tree just to say they did. It’s not bad, but doesn’t make a ton of sense. And as a side note, I think it’s hilarious that there are collectible gestures in a completely single player game. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So for the P Organ, am I right in thinking you need both slots to unlock whatever upgrade it is? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes, to get the “big” upgrade, you have to fill up its slots. It starts with 2 per node, but further up the tree you need 3, then eventually 4.

I'm using the Holy Sword of the Ark in Glaive mode and mostly just spam heavy and charged heavy attacks. Glaive mode heavys are thrusts with insane reach and tracking and the charged attacks are pretty fast with wide horizontal and vertical spins. Sometimes I still bust out the Wrench head + Krat Baton Handle. With my p-organ I got every health upgrade and focused on charged attack buffs and got 3 special grindstone upgrades. One increases the length of the buff (item quartz perk) and the other gives you two uses of the grindstone(level 4 p-organ trait). Honestly feels necessary to get those. Having 2 charges of "exploit elemental weakness" is awesome. Oh, and I got the quartz per that makes it so the special grindstone repairs your weapon. I also used the Fulminus Legion Arm pretty much exclusively cuz it's very basic and procs Electric Blitz. On top of that, I used the strongest and heaviest defensive parts. My Amulets are, increased weight +1, faster stamina regeneration to counter slightly heavy, a defensive amulet, and a boss soul amulet that increases your damage every time you hit an enemy(stacks up to 4 times and fades in like 2-3 seconds if you don't hit something). These are the stats I beat the game with 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
