thoughts on Tainted Grail?
it is trying to adapt some parts of souls combat to "skyrim" world designi put skyrim in quotes because the world is microscopic compared to elder scrollsthe combat design is pretty middling, it doesnt really deliver on the action fantasy game. the balancing is really bad, magic is extremely powerful because it doesnt have the stamina restrictions melee and ranged combat do, and summons can play the game for youthe story and world have been pretty uninteresting so far. the theme of "what if authurian legend was deified" but it is trying to split between immsim lively world and soulslike desolate isolation. it clashes really hard with itself all the time
>>737726646Its mid.
>>737727149There is no "souls" combat in this game. It's a first person CRPG.
>Play tutorial>Feels good. Nice level of struggle.>5 hours later>I'm OP as fuck and nothing can stop me. I look at the weapon upgrade system and sigh as I realise there's no cap on how much damage I can output.This was last year. Devs say they fixed it, but who knows.
Only having 2 weapons out at a time sucks. It needs a hotkey system for spells.
>>737726646>oldschool rpg like skyrim.fuck me its so over for zoomies. skyrim is old school now. lmfao.
>>737726646>having a blastWhy is this phrase so common kek
>>737726646I like a lot about tainted grail, it was a good game and i managed to get the "secret" ending on my first play through without even tryingi did feel like i got OP fairly quick but maybe that was just my glass cannon build, i still died every once in a while but for the most part i was walking all over the enemies, even on hard
>>737728910You would know if english was your first language. It's like how russians always say cyka blyat.
>>737729074English is my first language and I don't know, which is why I asked.
>>737729132If I say I've got my foot in the door, for she has a bun in the oven, do you not understand what I'm saying? You sound like a fish out of water.
>>737728910>having a blast>return to form>It really makes you feel like..>The dark souls of genre
>>737729315I guess you can't read, if you could then you would've seen that I was asking why the phrase is so common, not asking what it means.
>>737726646>I am having a blast nice self-report, shill
>>737729315NTA but that specific colloquialism becoming so prominent online is because of shilling bots. it has nothing to do with anything else. just like you aren't actually saying "dog eat dog world" in your actual life, no body is "having a blast" in real human conversations
>>737729386The term you're looking for is reading comprehension. You should also know that phrases are common in all languages. Especially Japanese. Context is a crucial commodity in that language. Sentences rely strongly preceding ones to make sense.
>>737729594Damn that's crazy.
>>737729667*rapes you*
>>737726646I would buy it if it cost $1, otherwise it's too expensive for me to physically afford.
>>737726646It's alright. I wouldn't call it a personal favorite or anything but I don't regret having played it. Perfectly decent filler game.
>>737729738theres a gog version. aka free
>>737728884skyrim will be 15 this year. for reference, daggerfall was ~15 years old when skyrim released
>>737729832Damn I wonder how great the 5 games since Skyrim have been...
>>737729437>no body is "having a blast"I do.Not that your ESL ass speaks English on a daily basis to begin with lol
>>737726646I love it, character building is so open that making OP builds is unavoidable without self imposed handicaps
>>737729950that's usually how good rpgs go.
>>737729896
>>737729903>I do.normal people don't talk like that. Only journalists and Funko pop collectors unironically write "I'm having a blast"
>>737730048Actually the best RPGs are the souls games, and you can't get OP in them. That's because they're tightly balanced, you see.
>>737730848Not sure if sarcasm
>>737726646boring as hell
>>737726646Im having a blast!
>>737726646Pretty fun game. Quintessential Polish Eurojank with all that entails (bugginess, lack of polish, odd balance, weird issues, charm, ambition, autism, soul). The setting and writing is generally pretty fun, and I liked the mechanics. But I also enjoy Eurojank and don't get bothered by a lack of polish, so it's a type of game that suits me.
Skyrim IS old-school though
>>737731265Any game made after 2006 can never be old school
>>737726646It’s worse than Skyrim in all ways except for combat and graphics. Skyrim is better in terms of exploration, story/lore, side quests, open world, music, etc
>>737729832>>737729896
>>737726646It is actually terrible. Only liked by obsessed by those suffering from TDS (todd derangement syndrome). It shows promise but quickly becomes Outer Worlds with worse combat.
>>737731369Agreed. But how does it fare compared to....Starfield?
Its a weird game where the different builds are wildly unbalanced but later on it doesn't matter at all because having money to upgrade your shit matters more than anything.
>>737727149melee is too fucking easy too even on max difficulty. bonked last boss like 4 times with a 2h weapon and was done, haven't touched it since
>>737726646Blast status?
"Having a blast" is an incredibly common phrase. Thinking it's something only a shill would say is schizo, and you NEED to go outside.
>>737726646>oldschool RPG like Skyrimugggggghhhhhh
>>737729896kek
