>censorshipNo one on this site knows what this term means
I asked this question in many places, and never was anyone able to provide an answer. What is the point of this game exactly? What does it tell the player?The main character has zero agency, the endings are identical to the first game, and the story is essentially the same as dark souls 1 Fraampt turned out to be the final boss.Dark souls 2 has no core theming or actual direction or coherent narrative. It's a schizo LSD mushroom journey where you go around killing dudes in armor because 2 women tell you to, then a talking tree fights you unless you walk away. In fact, this would probably be a better plot.The initial objective, to stop the hollowing Curse, comes up many times in dialogues but you never do anything ever to achieve it. You have to assume that by going with Aldia you will "attempt" to do something offscreen, because nothing done helps achieving that goal.That ending is completely meaningless and if the player had encountered, right after stepping for the first time in Majula, Aldia driving a lambo with hot chicks and yelling to him "get in loser, we are stopping the Curse" while pointing a glock, and finishing the game right away if you pick "Yes", nothing would change because literally everything that happens in Drangleic is meaningless slaughter. Even the crowns are JUST stopping the process of hollowing, not curing it. The first game already had stones able to purify curses.The quest to kill the 4 Lord Souls only exists to gain access to Drangleic, and can be skipped by jumping over a short wall. In the end, it's just poor Dark Souls fanservice and padding not actually related to the main plot.You are told to go through memories of the war with the giants and kill them in order to unlock the Throne of Want, but why did Vendrick need to hide away from Nashandra, once he found out about her?Even accepting that apparently Nashandra gained total control of the forces of Drangleic, why does the door answer only to the Giant Lord?Comment too long.

>>697006767The crowns nullify curse
>>697007026No, the crowns simply take thecurse in place of the wearer because they are fragments of the First Flame (which is super retarded like everything in Dark Souls 2 lore).This means that if the purging stones are crafted from souls so that you can purge your curse and transfer it to the stone, the crowns are crafted from the biggest 4 souls in the world and you can still trasfer your curses to them. They "should" be temporary despite being multi-use, and they function IDENTICALLY to purging stones.Vendrick achieved nothing, and seeking the crowns is worthless
>>697007470You imply the crowns will wear out, but I see no indication of this.
>>697007612The fragments of the First Flame are as limited as the Flame itself, which is finite.The very idea that Vendrick could just do a second split of the First Flame and assume to have found a viable solution by trasmuting them to purging artifacts when such Flame is already fading is super retarded.
>>697007828My interpretation was that the crowns were proof that it *was* possible to overcome the fading of the flame, but the tragedy is that it is so impractical to implement that it could only be overcome in the form of the crowns, and by the point that we obtain them we are the only one left to wear them.
Is it about time to admit that this game has always been overrated?
>>697005983That's a good point. The progression can be brutal.
>>697002729you gotta be fuckin american and raised in a single parent household to still mentioning zelda
Truth bomb.You're not unable to enjoy it because you're used to better games, you're unable to enjoy it because you're used to worse games.
>>697006574Yeah OOT raised the bar too much for new games
>>697002729Yes, zoomer, it's overrated. Don't play it.

/v/ never recovered from this
>>697001953It really is unfortunate how it falls into the problems of every JRPG that came before it. For one, having a focus on storytelling. Honestly the biggest red flag any video game can have.If I'm watching a cutscene, I'm not having fun. No exceptions. either trim the story down so that it's on par with Minecraft, or your series will suffer for it.

I think this may be the best thread to ask.Trying to play XC2 on PC at 60fps. Is there a way to do this without the 60fps being a speedhack?
Any chance that a new CV game gets announced in TGA tomorrow?anyone else looking forward to the new season of the goyflix show?
Monkey paw question timeLord of Shadows 3 or Netflix Castlevania game.
>>697007561Lords of shadows 3. If LoS 2 didn't have the forced stealth sections and had not fucked up the game direction (especially the scaling of the environment and gabriel), it would have been a really decent game.
>>697007561Just make another pachinko machine, Konami.
>>697007561Castlevania battle royale fps.
>>697007561netflix because it'd flop instantly instead of pissing away another 5 years on shitty god of war clones

For me, it's the Scorch. The best titan. I even ask for extra McScorch incendiary traps and the staff is so friendly and more than willing to oblige.One time I asked for McScorch incendiary traps and they gave me three. I said, "Wow, three for free!" and the nice friendly Frontier Militia worker laughed and said, "I'm going to call you 3-for-free!".Now the staff greets me with "hey it's 3-for-free!" and ALWAYS give me three traps. It's such a fun and cool atmosphere at my local arena, I go there at least 3 times a week for pilot stomping and titan melting on the weekend, and maybe once for afk when I'm in a rush but want a great time that is affordable, fast, and can match my daily entertainment needs.I even dip my friends in McScorch incendiary sauce, it's delicious! What a great titan!

TODAY IS THE DAY LADSI CAN FEEL IT IN MY BONES
>>697007376It kind of did due to the release timing but EA still wanted a TF3.And then the studio aborted in secret to surprise the suits with Apex.
spent all of season 1 and 2 keeping kenny alive only for him to die in a cheapass 5 minute flashback at the beginning of season 3 like some useless side characterAnyone else just stop playing at this point? Season 1 was kino, season 2 had it's flaws but held up pretty well, season 3 was a dumpsterfire, season 4 was marginally better than 3 but still tumblr fanfiction tier.
>>697004127Clem is enough reason
>>696983380Telltale didn't follow The Walking Dead's formula at all.The Walking Dead Season 1 had short mysteries to solve in every episode.>why is the man we are controlling in trouble with the law?>why is this family of farmers too good to be true? >who is the mole in our group?>what happened at Crawford?>where is Clementine?The Walking Dead Season 2 dispenses with mysteries and instead turns the game into more of a drama where plot revelations are outside of Clementine's control.They forgot what genre they were until The Wolf Among Us. Then they forgot again. Then they went out of business.
>>697003739they could have kept every character alive at the end of each walking dead game if they knew they wouldn't need to make another in fact, that's pretty much exactly what happens in wolf among us. the bad guys and three of their whores are dead while the rest of the main cast is still alive.

Fire Emblem 4 Remake is on the horizon. How would you like the avatar implemented?
Why did she do it?
>>697006538Do what?
>>697006538Her bladder was full
>>696997650The avatar is a Chalphy soldier (like Alec, Noish, and Arden), he survives the battle of Bellhalla, and later joins Seliph's army. He has little relevance to the plot, and rarely ever talks outside of support conversations. He has no holy blood, although the player can pick his class. He has support conversations with every playable character and marry any of them with the exception of Sigurd, Deirdre, Quan, and Ethlyn>>696997901Same

What am I in for?
>>697004869Yeah I just (naively) wished they would tone it down a bit. But it seems that they want ys to become trails in that regard.
>>697004912True, none of the games feel like they are ever designed to have time attack modes anymore. This is because Falcom went full on JRPG mode with them when they used to have more arcadey action game structure. In fairness Lacrimossa of Dana was really popular so it's unlikely they'll ever go back
>>697004912They need all that bloat to justify the outrageous asking price.

Why can't he just let it go?
I never played Daikatana, what's actually wrong with it?
>>697007045I watched Arcane with my mid 70s aunt and she was saying how she wished she could live in a world like that, how she wished she did parkour when she was young like that. You'll never let go. Your whole life you'll regret being born a beautiful sentient being in an aging mortal body.
>>697007045It was the only good game he ever made.
