Lou's Game
woke game
>Eats nothing except cheap chips with cheap beer>Has this figure
Wish the dodge rolling was as seemless as it is in Code Vein 1. Not only does the mid-roll cover less distance, but there's a "stutter" that creates really detectable end lag. Means enemies with long reach that spam you with swipes will rollcatch you between i-frames constantly.
>>732206415You now see the power of the Acedia bloodline.
>>732206453You can just put haste on your weapon and use the bloodborne dodge which is way better.
>Joseé 4 still srains Ichor on hit but drops the recoil>she just gave you a the suicide ones as a joke
>>732206321What do you mean there are laws and regulations about turning others into vampires?
>>732207098Zenon...
>>732207098Oi, do you have a turning loicense?
>tfw Joseebros, Hollybros, and Loubros basically all won Feels good man.
>>732206321is this still connected to god eater? What about the ending of first one?
Looking at my playtime, Scar wasn't apparently any longer than the previous areas but sure fucking felt like it.
>>732207640It has nothing to do with the first game
>>732207640Stop asking this every thread you fucking mouth-breather.
>>732207640It's all part of the Bugarally extended universe
>that's a lot of damage to my health bar>would be a shame if something happened to it
>>732208002We all hate Valentin here
>>732206453Probably to get people to use the defensive form more, try the dash variant
uooohhh
>>732208295I just feel like they didn’t balance the defensive Formae well at all.Shields will just get you stamina broken by wombo combos and has a long start up, the parry is fucking strong but there’s not a lot of indication of what is and isn’t parryable so you’ll just randomly get smacked for half your HP,While Umbral Shift has a gorillion of iframes, moves you out of range of most area attacks, and can cancel you out of animations.
>>732207745The mine area is unnecessarily complicated to traverseThe castle dungeon is unnecessarily longVisually both are also boring
>>732208680I like Vanishing Hollow for the free jumping heavy
>>732208862And the twink just isn't an interesting or good companion
>>732208680Shields are balanced by getting far more buffs than Shifting Hollow
Fuck you, Moon Envoy.Now I shoot the explody red shit!
The biggest crime of this game is we're not allowed to keep these boosters
Lou is cute! Cute!
>>732209643At least have them as a NG+ reward or something...
>>732206679>hasteexplain. is there a gift that makes basic attacks faster?
>Fangs of the HunterTheir attack string is slow and shitty>Twinfang bladesTheir attack string is slow and shitty>Resurgence Bayonet>It's normal attack is slow and shittyCut this shit out
>>732209643Hang on, I remember all these areas and fights, but this is the tutorial and there was no Noah boss. Oh right, shimata...
>>732209695It makes your dodge go up a tier
>slandering best girl in the last thread while I was asleepHow pathetic
>>732210230>simping for the designated #2 girl
>>732206972Ngl, after I understood the suicide mechanic it really made me enjoy her Blood Code a lot more. I have a tendency to just forget about my ichor and not spend it. But Josee's blood code actively punishes you for hording it, which makes me spend it more freely and wildly.
>>732210747Every blow is blow of madness!
I've seen Lou's deepest, darkest fantasies
>>732211185Hugs and had pats?
Anyone know where to find Nightstalker?
>>732211286
>>732208680Shields do suck cock. They require multiple of your precious formae slots just to still be worse than dodging which also benefits from some of the same formae shields do. While most of the block exclusive forame are not worth it at allGuard Reversal is a 12% boost to attack power for a few seconds and Charge up Counter provides miserably low amounts of staggerShield of Stupor, despite being the numerical worst shield, requires a dedicated formae only to still do less and provide less overall advantage to dodging. Meanwhile Mutinous Bracer is really good until it isn't while Vanishing Hollow and Dodge Spin are in no way a replacer to having a proper dodge.Umbral shift ignores all of that by being essentially free for most weapon (bleed factor) and will last until you get hasten and can then slot in Vanishing Hollow or Dodge Spin for flex. If it wasn't for the Gobbo double fight I'd have no clue on a single encounter where shields aren't flat out worse than dodging.
>>732211284Worse, she buries her face in your chest and if you say anything she just pushes harder
>>732211392Umbral shift is also for huge flaming faggots though.
Forest > City > Island = Island > Scar
>>732211482What are you, twelve?
I liked Pioneer Castle.It's not Cathedral, but it gets close.
I wanna bury my face in Jadwiga's neck
>>732211553I'm simply saying that if you used bloodhound step then you did not beat the game.
>>732211583I'm going through right now and it's decent. I can't wait to fully explore it with Iris later.
>>732206321I can beat the first boss anons how do i cope :C
status seems to be mostly useless as things die before they proc
>>732211794Just like in Pokemon
Is this game even any good? The first game was mid and only enjoyable with friends. This game supposedly doesn't even have MP.
>>732211676Bloodhound steps had more iframes and distance than a light dodgeUmbral Shift has the iframes and distance of a light dodgeDon't be daft
>>732211583the area would be significantly better if you could switch between layers on the map and they had only one icon for open and closed doors instead of like four
>>732211836I think the most glaring issue is the performance, but that should only really affect you if you have a poor man's rig or if you're a console pleb, otherwise the game is about on the first game's level, slightly worse due to minor stuff, such as no co-op
>>732211875You're getting a light dodge regardless of stat burdens. It's like wearing the darkwood grain ring back before it was nerfed.
>glutton eyes is 17 mind>lou A caps out at 33 mind with both boostersevil
>>732211785Frantz? You can leave and come back later when you're stronger.
>>732207640Uhhhh yes and no
>>732211938Sounds like it's not really worth playing. Thanks for the info anon.
>>732211785Parry the chargeStay midrange until he does the charge or the ground slamThats it
>>732207875True, I clapped when I picked up an item and it said Bugarally
>>732212015Darkwood Grain ring had no cost. Umbral Shift will burn multiple strong formae worth of damage every single time a non elevated mook boss does it's strings and it gets instantly replaced by Hasten which IS post nerf Darkwood Grain Ring for any build.
>>732211785If you mean Medusa man, you have a few options:>leave, level up in the present, and come back later to fight him when you're more powerful (the option for weenies)>use the bracer to parry him, shield to block his combo string, or dodge his attacks, then poke a few times while he resetsDon't rely too much on Noah taking the heat, since the AI usually only takes a swing or two before spinning around to focus on you again, so you risk getting caught out. In the second phase know that his three hit combo gains a second AoE fist slam, so dodge again after the first one. He was a pretty sudden spike in difficulty at the time, but after a few runs you should be able to get comfortable with his timings and learn when you can punish him.
>>732211836Do you really trust random people? Wouldn't it be better to watch gameplay or better yet try it yourself
>>732206415>feed her noodles mixed with crushed chips and melted cheese>orders you to bring this to her every dayI guess all the fat goes to her breasts.
Why isn't Jadwiga in the ending?
>>732212557Too lazy, she just watched the vod later
>>732212557She's at home being a stinky NEET
Is this the game that flopped worse than Highguard?
>>732211836It's better than the first game mechanically, but has some performance issues if your set-up isn't up to par.
>>732212752Concord was last year.
I know I can’t go back and change the past (yet) if I want all the Blood codes. But can I safely go into Lyles’s second time-rift thing and do stuff there? As long as I don’t actually finish it? I’m assuming it’s gonna have a very obvious end-boss (Imogen I assume based on dialog and order or achievements) that I just won’t kill until I have the bad-ending Blood code?Is Lyle also just not in the free exploration era? Josée is there immdierly, but I can’t find Lyle at magmell or any of his old spots. So I’m assuming I need to time travel to see him again, but I don’t wanna lock myself out of blood codes.
I have seen two credits so far and picked Save Lou on the title menu. This is the last stretch of the game, correct?
>>732206321I fucking love you Holly!
>>732213185yes
>>732213087Yes you can stop just before the boss to get the bad end codes. Lyle is only available in free mode after doing his second past
>>732213185The True Code Vein II starts here>>732213087He only shows up after finishing his quest.Finishing his quest resets his cocoon.Don't fight Imogen.
>stinger is still the most practical drain attack>it still has the lamest finisher
I think I missed the reason why we were so important that not only did we have to be revived but they used half of lou's heart to do so.
>>732213319(You) are a gullible body lying around to be utilized.Or Lavinia knows stuff because of her ability to see timeline shifts or something.Or Idris told her maybe...
>>732213319Lavinia saw the MC's immense potential (him pounding her into the ground) with her Forma.
>>732213319Pretty much yeah. Your unique condition is what allows lou to bring you with her when she time-travels and why your incursions make you enter memory land instead of killing you
>>732213465reminder that she canonically has a fetish for humans
>>732213303>The True Code Vein II starts hereSo you’re saying that neither gay ayylmaos or dumb vampires and their gay AIDS and gay plans can triumph over the indomitable human spirit?
>>732213319Do you know how hard it is to find good help these days?
Man got martyred and you can get a buff from him...
>>732213515Is that true?
>>732213721yes did you finish the game?
>>732213669Sure, but where can I kill his son?
>>732214056Gotta save something for the DLC
Favorite hero fight?
>>732214056Please don't go after established voice actor Brandon Jay
>>732214164Zenon
>>732214164Zenon or Holly
>>732214164Visually? Holly II, ZenonMechanically? Valentin I
>>732206321my wife and her wifes game.
>>732214164Josee hit my heart hard so the other ones weren't quite as impactful
does anyoenhave any pics of the other versions of holly, josee and lyle?
>>732214685
>>732214727no imeant the characters, but ty tho
>>732213319Lou can’t travel into the past herself. So she needs to bring someone with her. A human with her heart is able to tag along on her time journeys. The protagonist is naturally compatible with blood codes of all vampire bloodlines (note how all the revs you ally with are impressed that you can learn to use the full power of their codes rather than the fragments they give you initially) which means they’ll come to be strong enough to beat the heroes just by forming contracts with lots of different revenants.
>>732206415I want Jadwiga to be my mom.
>>732214424
>>732215460
Any word on performance improvements?
>stop in front of this bus>Iris jumps on top of it on her own and looks down at me like this
>>732215774
>>732208994This is great until the boss hits you through your minimal iframes
>>732215802She wants you to look.
>>732215817I mean I can deal with a silky smooth 40 fps but I'd rather not.
>>732206321censored garbage not interested
>>732215802>"Pathetic....."She just wants to be a little chuuni

Familial bonding exercises with Josee and Lise.
>>732215774No patches yet
how many secret quests are there in free roam? I met the prostitute, suspicious man, west gate ruins with josee and the serial killer so far
>>732216468Oh is there actually something at the top of the West Gate Ruins?I hadn’t thought to check during the exploration era.
>>732215774you should get a big improvement if you install that custom engine.ini that's the #1 CVII mod on nexus.
>>732216468secret? damn i havent seen any other than i guess the author girl.
>>732216572nah you get a succubus boss fight and more dialogue from josee, plus a weapon skill that makes dodging cost less stamina (stupid)
>>732216092
Nioh 3 runs way worse than this game, the shitposters were lying, as always >t. moving on to the demo now that I've beat the game
>>732216074Yet here you are, posting that over and over and over. If you're actually not interested, get lost for good.
>>732216092Anyone you've done their full sidequest on, and just get a shitload of eggs for the boiled egg recipe from the merchant in the sunken city village. For reference after beating the game I needed to feed lou a variety of books, desserts and eggs to hit ~250ish trading points
Jadussy...
>>732216684>not buildmaxxing with uswhy?
>>732216572>>732216678Counter point: You get quality time with the best character in the game
>>732216653yeah the prostitute, serial killer and suspicious man were all in the southern part of the sunken city. the prostitute is by west coast pier on the hill by a garage, the suspicious man is on a weird stone platform over the ocean by one of the merchants, and the serial killer is near the substation
>>732216795sorry anon, I've beat one kino game and now I need to move on to the next. After that is Yakuza 3 (thanks to my family share, I didn't buy it) and Dragon Quest 7.This month is stacked
>overpriced Bandai Namco animeslop with shit performance and Denuvo on top
>>732216843>suspicious man were all in the southern part of the sunken city.Pioneer Castle Control Room
>>732216468>suspicious man, west gate ruins with josee and the serial killerDon't think I've met those yet.There's a guy in the past near the sealed great mine and corroded mine that gets rid of the acid in the present if you help him.
bros where do i find the recipe for boiled eggs?
I need a mod to make the zenon hood ornament and circle of wives on the bike a permanent addition. sure some people will clip like hell on the back but it would be worth it
>>732216893have fun woth dragon quest

IMO this game should have been marketed and maybe even named differently. Playing up "Soulslike but you have an anime companion" more. Call it "Souls of Two: [anime-sounding word like Shinigami, something to draw in anime/Japanese game fans]" to emphasize 1) companion gameplay 2) anime.First game already maxed out the "Souls but anime" niche and peak soulslike has long passed, too much competition.Also think the lack of coop was a hard miss. I keep thinking how fun it would be to explore this open world with both an NPC companion and a player friend like the first game.I like the game and don't mind if it's niche, just my thoughts.I also think the core combat and open world exploration mechanics are better than people are giving the game credit for and the game is a great platform for expansion or modding.They should make an expansion that adds the option to marry characters and do some home/base building/life sim shit, it would sell like hotcakes and make a more meaningful way of using loot
>>732216937nvm found it
>>732216468There's also the Jadwiga minion near the MagMell Institute to the southwest.
>>732217382The game's only selling point is that it's Code Vein 2. Change the name and it's just another shitty souls clone like AI Limit. The brand name is all it has. You're stupid.
censored goyslop
>>732217476don't give up, skeleton!
>>732216762I wanna kiss her neck so bad
>>732217554The brand is all it has and they abandoned everything related to the first game like retards.
>>732216349It's a bit surprising, by this point I'd have already expected them to release a patch, not fixing everything, but at least making it better than it currently is
Oh shit, Kumar started his shift
>>732217554>here's how the game could have a better selling point>no you're stupid the only selling point it has it being Code Vein 2Reading comprehension my friend. Being a Code Vein sequel clearly wasn't enough
How many eggs do these people need?
chances that we fight Idris in the dlc?
>>732218034It looks like it depends on how much you’ve used them and how far their quests you are.Lou wouldn’t give me her sword until I killed Lyle and Josee despite feeding her 500 eggs.
>>732217554>shitty
So affection is an invisible stat? That's annoying
>Ancient Hunter's Greatsword +6>Josee's second Code>Adrenaline >Blow of Madness >jumping heavy attacksMetagen didn't stand a chance.
what's the best one handed sword art? I've been using thunderclap, but I think I read about something better somewhere.
Why does the jumping heavy on the twinblades halt all your momentum and send you plummeting to the ground at a 90 degree angle, regardless of whether or not you were sprinting beforehand? This really needs fixed in a future patch.
I saw something about “bad end” blood codes that you can still get in one playthrough but it requires putting off character quests until the very end of the game or something, which seems like it wouldn’t make for the best first experience. Is it better to do this in NG+ or is it not really a big deal and it’s worth aiming to get them on the first playthrough?
>>732218649For me, it's Secret Art: Scissor Wind
who do you think that deserves the title of best girlpic very much related
>>732218649Good old Phantom Assault.Teleports across the room and staggers most thingsSevering Abyss for when you need the height

>>732218727If the game let's you ng+ with ng difficulty like the first game did, then probably just save it and play how you would naturally

Aren't you forced to play as a woman in AO Limit? Sounds gay
>>732221425I don't understand the tards trying to pin these games against each other when they were, in my opinion, both enjoyable.
How do the save and the rescue lou save work?
>just beat it after ten tries Holy fuck this is a poorly designed boss.
>>732221748>they are both anime souls, herp derpis what it boils down to. Chances are they played neither because there are vast differences in the actual game play>>732221753fix everything, go to title, select option
>>732221748I don't understand console wars at all. Just don't play the shit you don't like. It's that simple.
>>732222073>fix everything, go to title, select optionI mean when you've done all three endings, does continuing one affect the other?
>>732222050>Umbral shift>win
>>732222050>very simple move set>clearly defined vulnerable body partsIt's just Semen of Dong with tits
>>732222228>>clearly defined vulnerable body partsYou can't lock onto specific body parts, yes you can lock on general in the middle part but you need to align yourself in the middle which puts you at exposure to punish
>>732222206It's sort of an extra mode, can't get souls, can't level, not even the loot carries overContinue just pops you back in front of SSV
>>732216896Don't forget the censorship. Never ever.
>>732222291Oh no, you have to control your character and dodge one of the two swipe combos...
>>732222329so it only changes when you clear ssv again?
>>732222332AGPtroons lost lel
>>732222329>>732222404also can you only replay the final cutscene from the rescue lou save? or do cutscenes get globally unlocked for all saves?
>>732221425Agreed. >>732220749Petite women exist and deserve representation. And so do smelly women.
>>732222404Once unlocked, you can just start it from that slot I think.So you can go back to the world for leveling/grinding and then just restart that part from the beginning>>732222490Cutscenes are available with Continue, not sure if they carry over into NG+ or other saves, but I kinda doubt it
>>732222395This game has proven to have heal punishing. Sybau if you think otherwise that it's poorly designed.
>>732222613to be fair it also has boss punishing by having an npc attack them while you lock them with an out of range charged attack
>>732206321Lou won
>>732222613It's a very slow boss with massively telegraphed movesIs this your first soulslike?
>>732222754Man shut the fuck up>Hurr durr just roll bro!! Epic gaming design!! Totally nothing wrong with it !!Did you forget I beat it? I'm not saying it's impossible you retard. I'm saying it's poorly designed.

>>732222816>Did you forget I beat itYeah, after TEN triesgit gud, scrub
Does partner affinity carry over into NG+?
>>732222941It does not, neither do unlocked partners
>>732206321I've only ever played the first game without any partners. Can you do the same here or are you forced to take a companion with you?
>>732223050You always have some form of partner, but you can schlorp them into your back and play solo.No way to dodge free revives though.
>>732216092do it with iris because her favorite food is military rations which you can buy from the first scar merchant
>>732222984Fug, maybe I should get on the egg train then.
>>732222739What did she win?
>>732216123I really think they need to rework the poise system. It's fucking awful
>>732223243(Me)
>>732216762That shit probably REEKS anon
>>732223243hugs and had pats
They don't want you to know this, but hugging isn't actually required for time travel.
>>732223945It's how Idris did it!
>>732222050The acid puddles were annoying. Otherwise it honestly seemed fine. Almost every attack was easy to dodge.
Thinking back I don't think there was a boss I've died to more than 3-4 times, the game definitely feels easier than the first
>>732220849How'd you get Goblins bayonette???
Any enemy drop weapons worth farming a bit? I got a few nice ones so far but wondering if maybe some of the elite enemies drop something really sexy.Boosters too? Kind of annoying to farm without ways to give crazy drop rates but some of the effects seem nice.>>732224203Well Im on attempt 4 of Josee and I doubt ill beat her on the next attempt. Considering swapping to a magic focused build since her attacks wildly hit anything near her.
>>732224320it was really early game, like the first portion of the map or something in a chest, it was the first bayonet i got.
i'm about to fight minigun holly in ng+
>>732224203Blind Josee and the floating blades guy before her both kicked my ass. Didn't have much trouble with anything else though.
>>732206321>Calls it a sequel>But it's actually not>New story. New setting. New characters. >No connections to the previous game.It's Code Vein in name only.
>>732222613>wtf why does the boss attack me when I'm vulnerable that isn't fair
>>732223945but it is required for Lou
>>732224352>without ways to give crazy drop ratesThere's Revenant's Greed as booster and some aerials do that too I think>>732224203Does this account for the ephemeral nature of time and you not being the same person as you were during your CV1 days?Knowing how2vein certainly helps

>>732225067I really like the dark eye bags she has that're even noticeable with her dark skin tone. Pure sex design.
i finished the game and got all my cheevos and i gotta sayi think the first game is better.
>>732225423Reasoning?
>>732224549Probably but I also replayed 1 a couple weeks before we came out and I'm more likely just remembering only the worst enemies and encounters from the game, like the ice brutes or the kickboxing lost
She even understands hats
>>732225423Okay. That's fine with me since CV is peak.
>>732223945Sorry, Lou can’t hear you she’s too busy motorboating some type B titties.
>>732225423I disagree, but that's okay.
>>732224449Do you think Souls, Mario or Zelda games are sequels to the previous entries? Retard
>>732225067Holly’s zone is also way more fun. Haunted abandoned circus, vampire sanitarium and cave system is way cooler than military industrial hallways x 1000 and cave system.
>>732225423I disagree. I genuinely don't think there's even one single aspect that the original has over 2.
>>732225931Pioneer castle feels like a custom halo 3 map. Foundry I think it was called? People would place down walls and objects to create corridors and rooms
>>732225986CV1 has a girl wearing lingerie with a silly fluffy hat.
>>732223945Sure it is. Otherwise Lou has me face first in her chest hole and groping her ass for no reason and I know she's more sensible than that
>>732226050Josee mogs
>>732225623never really took a close look at her bayonet. looks sick.
>>732226050CV1 has no Zenon
>>732226082Josee’s outfit confuses me, though. She’s sexy but it looks like she just came from the gym or something.
>>732226050mia wasn't wearing lingerie tho
>>732224949where can I get a one handed sword that doesn't look like doo doo feces that I can slap a sunblight stone on
Is this anyway connected to CV1 or is it actually a new timeline
>>732226192Both
>>732225931Yup
>>732226134you can get it from holly once you max out her affinity
>>732226160Her purple dress is basically a nightie.
>>732226232Thanks, wont ask how cause I still want to play it I was just put off by the devs saying it had nothing to do with the first game yet till calling it 2
One more
>>732226192It’s a multiverse thing. A shopkeeper who can manipulate alternate timelines collected weapons from CV1’s universe to sell.
>>732226305It has no direct connection but weapon descriptions show that weapons from CV1 drifted in from beyond the Frontier, implying they're connected in some way
I do wish Lou would talk a little bit more in the past and not just plot things. I want history lessons from her.
Leaving Lyle's zone until last was a mistake. It's too big for steamrolling it to be fun.
>>732227445kewt
>>732227445i want to cum in her eye
>>732206321>That FUCKING musical number out of nowhere
ue5 strikes again
Can you upgrade Guardian's heart, Frantz or a few of the other non companion blood codes?
>>732227445CUTE!!!
I'm getting rekt by the first real boss. Should I grind levels and look for better weapons? I can get the boss to phase 2 and down to around 40% hp but I can't do enough damage without running out of heals and dying.
>>732227708If a Blood Code is white, you can upgrade, if it is this dull bronze, you can not.You can also put old codes into storage for less inventory clutter
>>732227708Only the first hero bosses' blood codes and only if you don't do the second past fix of them before the end
was he the best character? Rhetorical question, it's fucking obvious
>>732227816>You can also put old codes into storage for less inventory clutterOh shit
>>732222050If you thought this was hard Gobbo duel is gonna rape you
>>732227831gryftGOAT
>>732227895>Gobbo duelHe will probably get filtered long before that
Why can't my character speak up and say>Uhh why don't we do something about mister Gobbo, he's obviously up to no good, this is like the fifth time in the second area he's mentioned doing shitty stuff and ruining everything
>>732228043it's ok to be a humanchud
>>732228043You are not supposed to fuck with the timeline
>>732227765If you're talking about Frantz, drop your weight down to "quick" and dodge or get real good at parrying.Trying to block his shit will just get you wrecked.Also go light up the shrine on Magmell island if you haven't already for the extra HP.
>>732228093Already am
>>732228093iris get back in the bedroom
gaming
im not that far in, but i really enjoyed the first game and i real like the open world is meh compared to the "zones" of the first game, just feels unnecessary. feel like the first game was doing its own thing pretty well and this is just trying to "well elden ring had open world"opinion could change, but for anons farther in or beat it do you feel the same?
>>732228043Because it wouldn't matter? Gobbo can teleport at will and is also MUCH stronger than you the first few times you encounter him
I am happy to report that every single boss in the end game gets raped to Falling Sun spam (except for Holly boss fight Round 3 because she won't fucking stop dashing around, but that's true of the first two times as well) Go all in on Will, use forma booster, use buffs (most 'attack power' ones work on spells too- try it), EZ gameI'm sure others used different cheese, but this one worked for me.
>>732228265For me, it's Warrior Might+Flaming weapon+ Doomfall spam
>>732228196>MUCH strongerHe's a bayonet fag, man doesn't even have a pipe
>>732228093fuck off lavinia
>>732228265i cheesed bosses with this and i will not apologize
>>732228305similar and based
>>732228265i just spammed guard of honor
>>732228194Open world is not super great, yeah.But it's way smaller than you might think and once you unlocked the and travel points, it's not more annoying than running through CV1 levels for quests
>>732228119>>732228128>>732228345good job, hero
Cool boss fight, would be a shame if I staggered it, unsheathed my katana for 12,000 damage, backstabbed it, then unsheathed again.
I really like how the game handled the time travel and how if you change the past as soon as possible it looks like the change only had positive effects with more revenants surviving, and you don't learn the consequences until you learn the truth
>>732228450similar question i guess, are there items in both the present/past? like i have to explore a place twice?
>>732228561quick lou we need to make babies
>>732228576love my big retarded gold sword how is this game an issue
Lou is pretty peak cat girl design. I liked Josee the most, but this is one of those games where I can understand the appeal of every single girl, and acknowledge that Zenon is the best.
>>732228101I can dodge and quick block pretty well but my main issue is that I lack dps. I'm siding this 1h sword that has a projectile slash attack and the bow mostly because if I try and do regular attacks I get fucked up. Maybe if I had a 2 hander it would be easier.>go light up the shrine on Magmell island if you haven't already for the extra HP.I'll try that.
>>732228591Most of the time, no.Very occasionally, yes. Though I think this is tied exclusively to quests. Or areas that are just inaccessible in certain time periods.
>>732228591Most of the non generic stuff and chests you only pick up once.Quest (items) are era specific.Only some areas are worth re exploring, and it's related to a a quest, not time travel, the Holly Pathos ones
>>732228591For overworld areas, I think so. I hope so, because otherwise that means I'm way more shit at exploration than I previously though.
>>732228591No. Once you pick something up, the timeline bends into a pretzel and makes it so that you've always had that thing picked up, past, present, future.Some vendors and quests can only be found/done in certain timelines though.
Any really exciting cool spells you can get?Like, this charged fireball seems to do good damage for the cost, but its just a fireball, not very neat.

>>732229495the one that lets you put a colorful light on the ground
Erm, Zenon?
Is Purging Thorn in the game?
>>732229721 No
Do the gold things just grow normally from revenants or
>>732229715orz
>>732229715This man is your friend, you gotta cheer him up!
>>732222414no one knows for sure, sales / peaks aren't out yet.
game was very good but I miss God Eater
I think I'm looking for a cave, right?
>>732230149Rule of thumb, if you stand on the dot and nothing is there, look straight up.If there's nothing, that just leaves one direction.
>>732230149Not available until second past visit
>>732230293Aha. I won't fret about it, then.
I mastered Zenon's blood code, but I cannot fucking get him to give me another one. I've tried partnering with him and resting at a mistle, I spoke with him countless times in the base, but he won't give it to me. What do I have to do?
>>732230636Progress
>>732230663I've beaten the game and gotten all three endings. Progress to what?
>>732230748Have you mastered all of Jadwiga's codes?I got all the Hero S ones after having mastered all related codes for them.
Is there a postgame or are you forced into NG+?
>>732230873I have not done Jadwiga's codes, so I guess that's the issue. I'll work on those. Is there a particularly good endgame grinding spot for blood codes?
>>732229807remember the fake ending where louis thinks he can kill you when he's not even jack
>>732231016you have to touch this green bond if you want to start ng+
>>732231016Entering NG+ is (You)r choice>>732231053I just ran the final floor of the last dungeon to grind them out, no idea if there's anything better.Also not sure if doing their quests is needed.Also also, there's a booster for easier code mastery, I think from one of Lavinia's codes?
>>732231247>>732231251So there is postgame? Is it still in "the present" or future?
I shouldn't bother playing it with a rx6600 and 5700x right?
>>732231341Beating the final boss just places you before the final boss. There's no proper post game.
>>732231236I remember that snake telling me>Don't worry, bro>I won't stab you in the back, broFuck that guy, Cruz deserved better friends>Is it still in "the present" or future?"postgame" just drops you in front of the last boss.You can go anywhere because time travel
>>732231412My 3060 ran it fine at medium settings, just try the demo to get a rough idea
>>732229495There's some fancier stuff later but there is no giant meteor or black hole or anything
>>732231678there is a black hole but it sucksand there's a galaxy looking spirit bomb and it too sucks
>>732231747>there is a black hole but it sucksoh guess I missed it KEK
>>732231412Isn't that basically a "next gen" console?Should be OK on potato settings.Demo has some environment stuff, so you can check that and add 20% load or so
>>7322314126700XT does 1440p or 1440p -> 4k RSR at High with overclocking
Holly's VA has been in almost nothing, she's got a chance of rising fast
>>732232168that's not the only thing rising fast
>>732228265For me it’s been this into drawback shot with a venom bayonet. It feels cheesy as all hell, especially when the poison proc gets going, but with the way a lot of the bosses seem intentionally designed to capitalize on the jank or simply leave you little to no openings to heal or attack out of neutral I’ve had to make peace with the fact that I’ll be pulling some chicanery from time to time.
>>732216684That's why I got CV 2 instead of Nioh 3.
This might be the first game to ever create a female character specifically tailored to my tastes. Even if it flopped I'm glad to have given them my money
>>732231747>there is a black hole but it sucksWell I’d be a bit worried if it didn’t suck.
I hate Holly's weird sombrero that's stapled to her skull. She's great otherwise, even though Josee is vastly superior.
>>732232348Which one?
>>732207640No. it connected to Scarlet Nexus instead
>>732228196>is also MUCH stronger than you the first few times you encounter himSo was Frantz. I still punted him in the dick until he died though. With Gobbo it’d just be a question of who better exemplifies the indomitable human spirit; some old faggot with a gun screaming about muh vampires get out, or a retard with a pipe, a hero complex, and a very questionable sense of self preservation.
>>732211938>Struggles on 4090 with PS3 quality graphicscmon nigga this game is SHITLY optimized
>>732231747>Try to use the cool Solar System spell>Get staggered out of it>Even when I do use it, it barely does any more damage than a charged fire ballHow am I supposed to use this thing?
>>732232790that'll be 10 ichor PLUS TAX, pay up
>>732232757pipe girl isn't really human though
>>732231492So just like the first game then
>>732232790I feel like the charged fireball is among the most powerful spells in the game. A lot of the other ones are gimmicky.
>>732227639Nah, thats just the game taking too long to make.When CV1 got released we barely had any souls clones to begin with - and people were hungry for Souls.Nowadays you have a gorillion different titles to choose from. Gritter western rollslop - korean rollslop -a million cheap indie rollslops - even other niche anime rollslops.If CV2 released like 3 years ago things would have been different but nowadays the competition is just too high plus rollslop ain't the big in demand thing anymore. We can no longer farm the Elden Ring hype.
>Pisar’s venom pikeNow that’s that GOOD shit. God, poison is so broken in this game. Especially with the status extension ability. What other good “fuck your shit” dot effects are there and where can I find them?
>>732232653Josee. A petite flat chested woman who isn't a straight up loli or annoying tsundere is so rare. She's just a fun woman with personality
>>732206321mixed game getting carried by animu aesthetics
>>732232971I mean this game is essentially "Elden Ring but good".
>>732232871Says you. Doesn’t matter what fancy bits got shoved in after I died, I’m human as long as I have human will.
>>732233080I love her
Alright where do I find the Jadwiga vendor that sells the tender stone 8 card?
>>732233019Wait, how do you make venom worthwhile? I tried casting Venom Weapon on my twin blades and applying the effect that way, but it barely tickled any bosses. I felt like I was better off casting Blood Weapon instead and doing the damage directly.
Beastlust Addict..?
>>732233164Doesn't really matter. Elden Ring 2 could not meet the hype that the original Elden Ring had.Will it do better than CV and other rollslops? Of course. But the big hype phase is over. Sales would definitely be significantly lower. Even if ER2 was the best game ever made fixing all the issues the original had.
>>732233225YWNBAH
>>732233336Multi hit attacks like mad turbulence stack it pretty quickly. The pike’s heavy also has a back dash before you hit which if timed right makes for a good dodge. After that it’s just a matter of carefully chipping away at health and waiting out the proc before hiking up the aggression to reapply it. You can also just use a ranged weapon since things like drawback shit and fusillade rondo let you stack status without having to get close.
>>732233301I think he was on Insula Carcere of the past. From the main gate go up the stairs and somewhere on the right should be a door you cannot pass in the present with the merchant inside
>30 FPS cutscenes
Can you not get Craig's sword by gifting him stuff? I must have given him almost 200 military rations by now and still nothing.
>>732228265Isnt this attached to a specific weapon?
>>732233794 yeah but you can buy it standalone pretty damn early
>>732233689>all the frames are of my wives
>>732231670>>732231847>>732232043Trying the demo, DD2 teached me that in game performance might be fucked, also that XT is so much better than my shit, decided I'd ask here because wilds humbled me, forcing me to lock 30 and use framegen which wasn't bad compared to other framegen shit I used in the past
>>732233545But I mean, the damage of the poison itself always felt extremely weak to me. I could apply the effect well enough with how spammy twin blades are, but it felt pointless when the poison would only do like 15% of a boss's health on top of taking fucking forever to do so.
is balance poise and is it actually important?
>>732233950Don't know how it will work for you but I was having issues when using DLSS that went away when I switched to TSR. Really just need to experiment with the settings and see what works best for your setup
Does Lise have a weapon to give me? I’m feeding her the eggs but Josee is getting jealous because I already have her weapon.
>>732234402She uses the weapons Josee gives to you during her questline.
They need to be bigger. This isn't preference, this is a necessity.
>>732234603So can she like move the gold stuff out of the way so I can suck on them or what
>>732233996Yeah. Depends.
How does gifting work? Do I unlock new stuff I can get from them by gifting them more or is it based on doing their quests?
>>732234723I guess she must be able to do so otherwise she'd never take baths.
>>732234858progress with their personal quest + eggs consumed
Does anyone know if the bighead monsters with gold halberds in the prison drop their weapon? I've killed this thing twenty times now
Is Final Journey in the game?
>>732234976they do. it's an okay weapon but the burden restrictions make it kinda difficult to use for what i'm going for.
fitgirl repack when?
>>732234603It’s a NECESSITY for her to put these in my MOUTH
is the non-crustified version of the Broadsword in the game or is fextralife lying to my face
>>732235023i have not found it yet, there's also no queenslayer. yakumos spin attack is also gone too, so basically shift decided to remove a lot of the stuff that was impossible to balance it seems.>>732235092never.

Anyone else feel way behind? t. in Pioneer Castle questline and have 35 hours, started in pre access day 1
>>732235062Damn. I wanted a good strength halberd that isn't an ugly hunk of shit (obliteration axe)
Does anyone know ehre to find the twin fangs of hunger? It's on the wiki but I can't find it anywhere in game
>>732235195I use the poelarm that drops off a bunch of enemies in Lyles area. The movelist is also pretty decent where it starts off with 2 360 spins making it great for aoe.>>732235287i think its a weapon you can buy from jadwiga after you give her enough funny stones although I can't confirm it right now. I have them but I don't remember if it was from her or another shop.
Why are the reviews split on this game so hard?6/10, 9/10, 8/10, 5/10. What’s going on? Getting Breath of Fire 5 vibes here.
>>732235195Moon Envoy's Staff is a S strength halberd, otherwise I'd say Iron Mass or Judgment Gregory are your last strength halberd options
>>732235195The one from the moonniggers that requires 20 Strength?
>>732235171Nah, I'm good
>>732235420The game is specifically made for people who like Code Vein 1. If you don't love that game, you'll hate this one.
>>732235420game is straight as fuck and quite hard for a soulslike so that's two strikes. You see a lot of reviews seethe over 'treatment of women'
>>732235287iirc they're weapons from one of the expensive versions of the game, but you buy them from Jadwiga for 10 echoes
>>732235287it is indeed from jadwiga, first upgrade for the stones i think?
>>732235171I blame it on open world. I hate the feeling of not covering every inch of the map while going for 100%. Same shit with elden ring.t. 71 hours and still haven't started the zenon story after beating the 3 heroes.
>>732235486Those are these, not the ones he said I think. I used them all game long with bayonet and halberd sometimes.
>>732235506>>732235396Thanks, got them
>>732235195>ugly hunk of shit (obliteration axe)no u

>>732235971you know the costumes from 1 with the famous Mia upskirts and etc? Those costumes are in this game for the Deluxe Edition, but changed to shitty shorts that ethics departments loveSeems like there's no jiggle on most characters and only a few bosses with big tits for some fucking bizarre reason That's it. CERO is more a cunt these days then when CV1 came out, so that's my guess.You can still see big brown Holly booba in the baths

>>732206321I played the game for an hour before refunding.It literally looks and runs even worse than fucking monster hunter wilds and I am genuinely baffled by the lack of outrage for this game.Really tells you a lot about how much marketing and shilling matters more than quality of videogames nowadays.

What did you do with the runaway cultists? I decided to leave them alive and got this. Can't be arsed to do 4 playthroughs to see all outcomes, so what did you get if you kill one/both of them?
>>732236626I know, right? I think they're even sharper than CV1's, and they were already pretty damn good.
>>732224203I've died a lot but most to the same bosses. they're frustrating and can be hard to read with awkward hitboxes
>>732236979I killed them and got a haze item for it.
>saar not mad am I mad are you counter to melol
>>732236979What runaway cultists?
Imagine getting mindbroken by indians lmaoThere are barely any indians in 4chan. GrapeApe already confirmed it
Why do some of you think the game looks bad? Dull, PS3, whatever. Can you tell me a similar game that you think looks good in comparison instead of just saying it looks bad?I personally think it looks great but I might just be using to playing older games.
>>732236980Some enemies especially with halberds and other longer weapons have had some deceptively long hit boxes because they’ll actually extend it to its full range, but that’s a misread/skill issue on my part, same with when they’re faster then I predict.
>>732237081>There are barely any indians in 4chanLolLmao
>>732237084There are older games that has anime artstyle that looks much better than Code Vein 2. Even Code Vein 1 looks better than 2

>>732237063In the tunnel that leads to undead forest there is a small side room you can reach the quickest coming from the south. In the past there will be two cultist who ask you to kill them or something like this and you can choose to spare them, kill the guy or the woman or both. If you spare them you get the letter in the future. Other NPCs I know of are the prostitute in sunken city at the house around the hot spring where you get to the prison island. I think there was some soldier NPC as well with some tunnel other anons posted but never found that guy.
>>732237063There's a few unmarked sidequests out in the overworld.One of them is said cultists. Fuck if I know where they are.
>>732237269This is a meaningless comparison since Scarlet Nexus is even more of a pozzed game than CV2.
>>732237213>>732237282im already past that point though so i guess there's no way unless they patch it in.
>>732237269It can hit 60fps on a 5 year old AMD card, giga retard. >>73223204Is Nvidia just ewaste at this point?
>>732237364meant to link >>732232043
>>732237148Most of Gachaslop is better looking than Code Vein 2 while performs on a fucking phone. They should able to do this on medium budget Single Player game
any game that's similar to this? with cool anime aesthetics, that's a soulslike and doesn't suck, also plus if it isn't a shitty, boring ass open world thats full of bullshit
>>732237269not going to engage with you any more than this
>>732237423AI Limit, though it has a set protagonist.
>>732237334It looked good and ran well despite being pozzed. Meanwhile CV2 looks like turd, runs like shit, costs like AAAA game, pozzed with censorship and has worse gameplay, literally nothing even went right with it.
Josee builds are the best. The best halberd attacks hit multiple times so you have infinite ichor while still maintaining a quick dodge.
>>732237351You can go there in the exploration era. I only found it end game when I was farming the ape there.
>>732237423Stellar Blade
>>732237464>has a set autistfix'd
>>732237364>>732237414>>732237458>duuuuuude ignore your own experience and the dozens of videos showing the terrible performance, believe on my screenshot!!!!!Post benchmark vid with settings nigger.
saaaar saaaar
>>732237423>cool anime aesthetics>CV2KEEEEEEEEEEEEK
Is the game pirateable yet? I bought fantasy life after having pirated it and I bought milds after trying the beta, but the demo in this is so ass, you can't really tell how the performance or how the combat is.
>>732237576>ignore your own experience, believe on my screenshot!!!!!it tells people talking about their own experience, followed by autistic screeching
>>732237531Wait, S rank loses the mana burn? That was half the fun.
>>732237084I think it's mostly the animation quality. Chinese gachas have raised the bar for what anime games are expected to look like. The old lifeless eyes and stiff movements don't cut it anymore.
>>732237707the mastery skill is the one with manaburn you can throw onto anything if you really want to cuck yourself i guess.
>>732237732Yeah but that shit’s a skinnerbox. It’s like being impressed by the visuals of a casino.
>>732237685It's more likely to hit 80% off before it becomes pirateable cause of denuvo which will take years before they remove it
>>732237697Your experience of looking for an empty area just to take a screenshot to barely hit 60?
>>732237792>Only works on Gula bloodlineSo this only matters for Lise and Hero Josee?
Are people serious about the performance problems? That shit gets fixed by ini tweaks. It’s not even the only game that ever has this issue, and it won’t be the last.
>>732237923There's stuff to remove bloodline limitations
>>732237419>>732237732Wuthering Waves has a massive budget and team. It's not really comparable to any other game besides Genshin (and Genshin looks worse than CV2, in my opinion).Also, WuWa does NOT run well on phones.>>732237923There's a late game Booster that ignores bloodline passives.
>>732237732>>732237798You don't even have to look at gacha. Just look at their own previous games.Digimon time story looks better.Scarlet nexus looks better.Takes of arise looks better.Code vein 1 looks better.
>>73223800170% of the budget goes to marketing. Not the game
>>732238032Just like CV2?
>>732237953https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kpxeuMXWRLMIts really bad.
>>732237953I was a bit concerned for Ace Combat 8, but that .ini apparently being good for all UE5 games has quelled my worries significantly!
>>732237576>n-no you must be lying it can't be true!Holy cope. You know the PS5 has a gpu not so different than a 6700XT sharing the same RDNA2 architecture, right? And that Code Vein is a console game first, which means a PS5 game? Is it so hard for you to believe the game runs well on hardware is was built for? Not doing extra work to prove a point to you dawg.If the latest high end Nvidia cards don't run the game well, that's on Nvidia and their pivot away from building hardware for gamers. Though IIRC Nvidia has always been subpar for console ports. Sorry you bought one, if you even did and aren't just a coping poorfagI happen to know it runs fine on Nvidia as well though, because I have 2 GPUs on my mobo, the other one being a 5060 Ti 16GB I bought for AI and CV2 ran about the same on it, maybe 10-15% lower FPS, before I noticed and forced it to use the AMD
>>732237798Irrelevant. The point is that it's technically possible to make anime style games look good. People used to handwave shitty animation by saying that you can't make 2d look good in 3d but turns out you can.
The art direction in CV2 is shit, I'm enjoying the game a lot but so many of the interior areas look so amateur with its empty space and repeating texture work. It's something you'd find from some random unity / unreal jank made by one guy on steam. Anybody defending the art style of CV2 is just lying to themselves.
>>732238092>can't even hit 60fps on 1080pThis is literally worse than monster hunter wilds.
>>732238189That's a wall of cope lmao just post your benchmark vid already so we can laugh at you stupid shill.
>>732238202>>732238092lol
>>732238202>and repeating texture work.It's a DS2 homage
>>732238189Nvidia fags lost hard
I can confirm the performance for this game is absolute shit.I'm running a 4070 + 5800x3d at 1080p. I can barely keep 40+fps in most areas. It runs like absolute shit and it makes games like Rise of The Ronin and Wild Farts look like they have amazing performance. I am also running lossless scaling for some framegen to make the game somewhat tolerable although the input delay gets really bad in some areas. This game also does not have any native framegen in the game but supports dlss / fsr. This game was not ready to be released.
Took me 50h to do everything and a little extra.Overall the game is mid. Not just mid, it's pure MIDDLE OF THE MID type of mid.Probably the weakest game of this type from my recent memory (that I have played ofc, like Lies of P, Wu Chang, AI Limit, Khazan).But the thing is I sorta wish that it lasted me a little bit more just to get me throught to Nioh 3 release. If the game wasn't open (chore) world and there was some actuall replay value besides 3 extra blood codes (if you don't save the heroes) I might have actually jumped into NG+
>>732238438Did you plug in the custom engine.ini ?
>Nvidia fags coping with their ewaste
>>732238497there's just no way this game is worse than Poo ChangSorry
>>732238548yes, it helped but the core performance is still very bad. it's just another case of developers not knowing how to use unreal.
>>732238497The first game was ass too. I played the entire game on a pirated copy and still felt ripped off. I feel sorry for all the retards who got scammed by the shills in this website lol.
>>732238774God this post even sounds brown
>>732238937I don't get paid to shill this game so I'm not indian.
>>732239010trust me, we know you do it for free
>>732238497Also, cucking you out of this by putting it behind a "bad' choice is a crime in itself.
>>732239092I have integrity unlike you. How much does bandai namco pay you?
>>732239159how does it decide what movelist it has?
>>732238571Wait, AMD gpu still a thing ?
>>732239010.t Indian working in a troll farm
>>732239162I make much more in a day than your entire village does in a year. I play games for fun; you seethe about them online for hours (because you cannot afford to play them)
>>732239230I wouldn't fucking know, because I made a moralfag goodie choice.I wish I could test it without modding it in or replaying the whole game.
>>732239267If you think buying videogames is a sign of wealth, boy I've got news for you ranjeet.
>>732238202It's an upgrade to Code Vein 1, and that's all I really care about.
>>732238001Oh, tell me more about that booster! Reaper Holly’s Booster is great, I’d love to use it.
Anybody find any cool ice spells besides the one in the first area's shop? I've been trying to find Ice formae and Breath of Ice because I just want to be a nice mage.
>>732239648...on opposite day.
>>732239251PS5s have AMD gpus retard
Does Craig have an S tier Blood Code?
>>732239692I found Baba Yaga's Gaze, if you don't have that one yet.>>732239689You get it from Soul Savior Valentin
>>732239692Make Holly your friend.Also there is an Ice rapier (forgot it's actuall name). It's a 1H sword that shoots pretty large icicle on i'ts charged attack.
How moddable is the game?Are cutscenes moddable?
>>732238001I despise this flashy combat and animation so much
>>732239648i will never understand how a single dungeon filtered so many players.
>>732240028>Baba Yaga's GazeOoh yes please, where is it?>>732240056Ah, will do! Any word on where that sword is?You guys are wonderful!
>>732240056>forgot it's actuall nameIt's Iceblood>>732240176Jadwiga. Rocks. Bring them to her.
>>732240064You can get it to 60fps probably
>>732239806No just A

>>732239648That place was fun.Scar is actually bad.
>>732239794Wait, PS5 still a thing ??
>>732239370I used the shop editor mod to buy the blood codes from jadwiga to test it out. its a new movelist that no other 1h sword has i think, nothing special but all of the 2h swords share it. it's a very basic 4 hit combo which is kinda slow but still faster than 2h. its also dumb you cant put 1h sword formae on 2h swords but i guess that would be a bit too busted.
>>732240629>its also dumb you cant put 1h sword formae on 2h swordsShame, the idea of using Queenslayer GS and Phantom Assault into Severing Abyss was what made it interesting to me
>>732240176Holly's side quest gives a bunch of ice magic, I think it was from there.
