>>749028452You're 5 years too late, everyone who cared and has the know-how to figure this out already played it on the PS4 emulator.
>>749029185ShadPS4 had vertex explosions the last time I played and finished it (in November last year). Anyway, any PC port of this game or Demon's Souls would be appreciated.
>Linux
>>749028452Completed it 10 years ago when you still had hair
>>749028452Who cares. One of the worst games ever made.
>>749029770Agreed. It's worse than DS3. I don't like this game at all. But I'm making a thread because people just love this shit.
>>749029609takes 20 seconds to reboot. How is that an issue?
I'm guessing it's just vibe coded emulator
>>749028452>Status: experimental, playable>Linux port
>>749029449>ShadPS4 had vertex explosions the last time I played and finished itAnon, there was a simple few kilobyte mod you could download to fix that like a week after the game was emulated.
>>749029609Nice, an excuse to finally stop dealing with windows 10. Perfect timing.
>>749029449Vertex explosions were fixed with one cheatcode that comes installed with ShadPS4, and iirc it does not affect anything noticeable.
>>749029839Nah the DLC in bloodborne, having played it after DS3 and Elden Ring, is probably the best souls content FS made.It's a tragedy that the sequel is a broken mess on the switch with network issues and forced multiplayer. Then again, they got bought out by tencent, who just want to sabotage them so you play chinese games instead.
>>749028452>linux only
>>749030094It completely disables character customization which is a cope 'fix'The 'fast readbacks' function is what actually fixes it but this costs lots of performance so turd worlder favelaboxes cannot use it, hence why they must cope with disabling features of the game to play.

>>749028452>contributors: $USER and claude
>>749030662>>749030779>samefagAIslop and probably still runs better than Duskbloods.
>>749028452Does it allow face sliders to work? Could be cool. Glad that more popular games gets people PC porting them. Even Serious Sam Next Encounter got a port recently.
>>749028452>troonixLMAO
>>749029609>>749030040>>749030519What's wrong with linux? I'm ironically completely ignorant about these things. I usually just buy whatever computer or laptop people say is good and play my games.
So did anybody try it?
>>749031297Fuck man I hope Duskbloods flops so bad. I seriously don't understand how as a company you look at your history of making critically acclaimed singleplayer RPGs, you release your magnum opus in Elden Ring which becomes widely regarded as one of the greatest games ever made, and your thought process is "we should follow this up with a co-op monster hunter clone and a PvP battle royale exclusive to the switch".Wake me up when we get our singleplayer Pirate Souls or Project Spellbound like we fucking deserve.
>>749030595>It completely disables character customization which is a cope 'fix'How often are you leaving your character's face uncovered and moving the camera close enough to see it?
>>749028452>No ''emulation''. No translation layer.If this isn't emulation then shadps4 isn't emulation either.It literally uses shadps4's translation layers (gnm to vulkan, shader recompiler).This is a vibecoded fork of shadps4 optimised just for Bloodborne. There's nothing wrong with that but the readme is deceiving.
>>749032014yes, I am having a blast
>>749031939Autistic imageboard tribalism.
>winjeets seething ittwhy don't y'all just ask the ai to port this to wincuck? are you stupid?
>>749028452I played it for 10 years on PS4... I'm at my limits to how much lack of content for that game I can bare... you guys have fun though...
>>749032151It also disables NPC faces as well, it disables FaceGen data from loading at all
requires avx2
>>749028452can it work with wsl2 and what's the performance difference between this and emulator?
Claude insert Shrek and Hatsune Miku
>>749028452Why are PCjeets so obsessed with this game? It's a worse DS2
>>749031939it really depends on what you use your computer formany common programs don't have a linux version so you will either have to find a Linux equivalent or get them working in Winethe only reason gaming is as good as it is is because one incredibly dedicated Linuxfag decided he would rather come up with the entire compatibility layer we use now than play 2B's game on Windowsaside from that, people just bawk at learning the idiosyncrasies of a new OS
>>749031454>chinkdows
>>749028452>"No ''emulation''. No translation layer.">the GPU work is translated to Vulkan by a renderer derived from shadPS4 and heavily extended for this game,
>>749032135Apparently, word is, a hostile takeover.Tencent is deliberately sabotaging Fromsoft. It's similar to shit going on with Microsoft in the past and even recently. The big fish are eaten the small fish, digesting them, then shitting them out. They do not care about quality or maintaining a human fanbase. Their bottom line is money.Elden Ring being so massive killed FS it seems. It was no longer something they could ignore.
>>749032896That's bizarre.You'd think they would be very adverse to windows.I think things are about to explode with the gaming industry, AI, OSes and hardware monopolies this year. The kettle is boiling and we're about to see shit hit the fan. The prices are an indicator of a bubble bursting now.
>>749032928kekI bet it would run like shit on this.
Can you mod it? No way I'm replaying it without all weapons unlocked at the start.
>>749031939Nothing wrong with linux. These posts were made by retards who cant install linux on their computer. >T. Dual boots
>>749032981I'm glad they were at least able to squeeze out one more banger in Armored Core 6 before it all went to shit. I love Elden Ring and its one of my favorite games ever but fuck dude, that game being as popular as it did killed the best studio in the industry.
That's just emulation with extra steps masked not to sound like emulation though, isn't it?
>>749033264I just wish they can go back to how the original Dark Souls was.
>>749033394They never wanted to make the original DS how it was.They wanted the level up girl, they wanted you to teleport to the hub to level up....
>>749033361Emulation is defined by creating a whole virtual machine that executes the instructions of the target machine by interpreting or recompiling. Translation layers reimplement all the external libraries of the program so it can run on the target os, and only works if both have the same arch.
>>749028452>finally bloodborne for pc>its for linux
>>749033495>They wanted the level up girlBased. That's how we got her
>>749033635>That's how we got herShe's just a worse lady in black.
>>749031939Even while using the distros that "just work" you will eventually stumble upon something that takes some tinkering. But there's nothing stopping you from dual booting if you absolutely need Windows for something
>>749033587>what is wsl2
If it has less input lag and better performance than shadPS4 that would be awesome. I keep trying the emulator every few months and it's still not as good as just playing it on real hardware. At least on my poorfag PC with an i5 12400
>>749032517No, that was never true.
>>749029449You can already play Demon's Souls in 120+fps on PC.
>>749033394Fuck no, ER was way better and I only played that shortly before ER. Ok the first half or so is pretty good, but holy fuck Izalith and shit is pretty mid.Bloodborne was a lot better in my opinion. The DLC is the best part of the game for a start. Until SotE it would have been the best DLC FS had made. I played BB after SotE too and I could tell it was much much better than their other DLC before ER. Still haven't played Demon Souls.
>>749033871That is exactly what the Vertex Explosion 'fix' does. It blocks FaceGen data from being loaded which is what causes the vertex explosions.
>>749033939>cutscenes in the middle of combat>spastic bosses>betterkill yourself
>>749031939Linux is for work, windows is for play
>>749033939Studio japan made it, for a start, that's why it's good.Even then the first part until ludwig is such a drag
>>749033943I played through it on ShadPS4 years ago with the built-in explosion fix enabled and the NPCs had faces just fine. Do you mean something else?
>>749033939Second half of Dark Souls is the way it is because they straight up just ran out of money. Lost Izalith was made in like a few days iirc. They just threw some bullshit together so they could at least ship with 4 lord souls. I wish we could see what it would look like if they had actually had the money to finish the game properly.
>>749033929>120+fpsWait, really? When I played it 60fps was the only option. Game logic doesn't break at 120? Neat.
>>749030094If you need a “mod” to fix the emulator from exploding your screen, then the emulator is shit.
>>749034049It's not that they litterally lack a face, but it's a generic one instead of the custom face made for the character.
>>749029609>>749030519>>749033587it runs on windows if you know how to compile to visual studio but everyone on /v/ is a "where the fuck is the download link on github" guy.
>>749034101>New and experimental emulator for a complex console is shitbrown hands typed this shit. You cannot be this ignorant.
>>749031939Check board's name
>>749033361the page explains exactly why its not a emulator. its not hard to read.
>>749028452>Only Linux thoughthis post is extremely trans approved and worthless to anyone not gay and retarded
>>749033994James is a literal retard btw
>>749034018>Studio japan made itFunny that there's not a single developer from Japan Studio in the credits. Did the marketing team program it themselves? Weird. Did they have Jun Ito working on marketing material in secret then instead of lead programmer like he's credited in every one of their games? What about the designers? All a lie too? Masaru Yamamura and Kazuhiro Hamatani just watched the marketing team from Sony make the game for them?Kill yourself, snoy.
>>749033939Dark Souls is literally unfinished when it comes to areas like Lost Izalith. But besides that, I meant the more interconnected world design and slower combat. I like the new games but I feel like they're too spastic a lot of the time.
>>749033994linux is for the gentilewindows is for the goy
>>749034095From what I remember there's some weird collision behavior that can happen, but it is possible.
grok put it on PC no mistakes o algo
>>749034343They are never going back to slow combat because it's "easy"Their new design philosophy is malenia and consort radhan.
>>749034264
>>749034343I have the perfect game for you but you're not gonna like hearing it
>>749034095>>749034435never use ladders in souls games with fps higher than 60fps. often or not weird shit happens.

>>749034486>sotfs romhack
>>749034476woah wtf
>>749032891Proton is thing
>>749034486>interconnected world design
>>749034486>DS2>interconnected worldI'm starting to think even you didn't play DS2
hey guys just because people are discussing video games doesnt mean you have to vomit pol and country and nation and other garbage in a video game thread
>>749034067I also think a proper remake should have happened, but then fanboys would get mad at the changes. Izalith is laughably bad. Like worse than DS2 bad. It's straight up not finished and it's immediately noticeable and I literally stopped playing here because I realised the quality dropoff here.Then again, SotE has these empty pockets that are clearly unfinished too. kekThere's a complete zone with little point to it at all I think. The red flower area? Cerulean is pretty empty too. I was hoping they were going to fill it in later with patches but it didn't happen. Shame because I loved SotE too.
>>749028452>I hate Linux, it got no games!>ok, play Bloodborne then>REEEEEEkek
>>749033939Does it hurt to be that brown.
so, it should work better than emulating no?>>749029185I got a piss4pro back when MHWorld launched and was a sony exclusive, I also got bloodborne. It was cool, but damn playing at silky smoth 20fps with 90ms input lag was SHIT
>>749034185>wintoddlers>knowing how to compile shitThere's a reason why Strawberry player dev paywalled windows builds, lol
>>749034669its better than emulation because the command buffer is multithreaded instead of single threaded. vulkan wants multi threaded buffers, single threaded buffers is legacy code.
>>749034476They did this with the speedrunning community, twitch and discord kek.Also this place. But I've been noticing how many old ER/DS runners simply stopped around the time trannies became obsessed with saying trans rights all the time at GDQ.I think they saw it up and coming and gaining traction with pop culture so they tried, badly, to usurp it and it's blown back completely.
>>749028452>Only LinuxKek based
>>749028452Claude: Make a Windows port.
>>749034668see >>749034642It's literally unfinished. Come on now.>nooooo it's perfect nooooooooo
>>749034642SOTE is very fun but it's definitely got some bad parts to it. The emptiness like you said, but also the fact that the entire progression is tied to fragments that just make you take less damage the more you have instead of actually tuning it for more natural progression.There's a mod for ER that completely revamps Shadowlands progression by adding Shadow Smithing Stones that increase your damage everywhere even outside the Shadowlands and it feels so much more natural than just "find all the fragments to not get one shot by every enemy".
>>749034951Chimp. ER is the worst open world game I have ever played.
>>749034916>sorry, but that would require access to proprietary code which is unavailable to me right nowThen again, so would access to PS4 code.
>>749034835It really started after that one guy got banned from GDQ permanently cuz he had a maga hat on in some unrelated social media post. After that they just started virtue signaling hard and letting in troons en masse to show they're on the good side
>>749034476The only time I'll care about this troon shit is if:-the dev is a troon-the dev is actually catering to troonsI don't care if a bunch of fags with shark plushies decides that a game is theirs now but the two above actually ruin games.
>>749034916DirectX is hot dogshit for Bloodborne. That's why there's no Windows port. DirectX11 is a single threaded command buffer. DirectX12 is a shader stutter nightmare. Vulkan doesn't have these problems and Vulkan drivers are behind on Windows than Linux. Windows doesn't even have RADV which is what the dev validated this game for.
>>749034967>but also the fact that the entire progression is tied to fragments that just make you take less damage the more you have instead of actually tuning it for more natural progression.Yeah that was a common complaint.But I felt like it achieved, with story beats, what ER tried to do with the base game better. It was shorter and just a teeny bit more streamlined and that's probably all it needed.Miquella and Messmer both felt like Kurtz in the Congo by the time you get to them. >>749034984Smoothbrained inbred amishnigger post.
>>749035090Yeah, but also Gwyndolin is cute.
>>749028452>only LinuxHoly shit this game is cursed.
>>749035137>tranny only wanted to use linux cause microsoft support israel or somethingyeah yeah
>>749035301see>>749034632
>>749034967Something tells me they had a similar issue with SotE as with end game DS1. Time and money.That could explain:>NTRBoy that name is spooky now we know it really was ntr.
>>749035287You could just WSL shit.I wouldn't bother though. If you can WSL, just dual boot.But as people pointed out, it essentially is just the emulator.
>>749031939only about 5% of linux users are qualified to actually use it and the people who do use it are really annoying and gay
>>749035536>qualified to actually use it>the people who do use it are really annoying and gayAre you a linux user?
>>749034435There's a specific maneuver to get an item in Nightmare Frontier that becomes undoable above 30fps, also just like DS1 on PC jumps and rolls in general become gimped, can make some sections like getting down to the bottom of the tower in Cathedral Ward/the real workshop much harder
>>749035590no Im not that competent I fear
>>749035212Messmer is the best boss Fromsoftware has ever made. Yes I think he's better than Gael and Ludwig. Very few times in the Dark Souls games do I die to a boss with a sliver of health left on their health bar and actively get excited because it means I can keep fighting it. That was the best boss fight I have ever played, everything was perfect, combat, music, arena, the voice acting
>>749034486You're a funny guy, anon.
>>749035794Snake phase sucks massive ass.>Yes I think he's better than Gael and Ludwig.ugh, you actually think those are peak from
>>749035592You're right, but that conversation thread was about emulating Demon's Souls (PS3).
>>749035137does vulkan not have shader stutter?
>>749028452>Only Linux thoughNothing burger
>>749035794>throwaway boss almost everyone beats on their first try that barely matters in the story is the best
>>749036029>>throwaway boss>>barely matters in the story>Is central to the Realm of Shadow plot before Miquella arrives, which reveals a lot about Marika's motivations and actions
>>749035984I haven't experienced nearly as much issues at 60fps with DeS as I did with BB, but that's mainly because as far as I recall there's not many cases where you need to do jumping or precise platforming maneuvers in DeS to reach things, except maybe in the Nexus to grab stuff off the walls around the main room
>>749028452>Only Linux though
>>749028452how well does it run on liinux?

>>749037659does it run better than shadps4? mouse and keyboard compatbility is better since it s native, NO?
>>749037737It has better performance but I found it doesn't have any support for mouse and keyboard. When it asks you to enter your name there's no window or overlay, but game window title changes to "Please enter your name: ..." and it append everything you type after that lmao
>>749037845it's good that it runs better, they need to implement native mouse and keyboard asap, that's mostly why i'm interested in pc ports.
>>749037659there's already a windows fork available but I cba to compile it as I've finished this game six gorillion times already
>>749035794Disappointing lack of lewds tho.
>>749037659NO HELP ME BILL DONT LET THEM TRANNIES WIN MR. GATES
>>749031939Nothing really if you know what you're doing but every minor issue you have ends up wasting so much time troubleshooting, everything is designed to be used in baby mode with Windows so you have to go out of your way to learn about Linux which most people won't do
>>749028452>A full play-through has not been verified, and only one machine (Linux, AMD Radeon RX 7800 XT, Mesa/RADV) has been tested thoroughly.>It's using FSR3 to make it work on lower machinesCan sloperators put the minimal amount of effort please?

Excellent, can't wait for them to include DLSS for DLAA. The nightmare AA and jaggies of Bloodborne will finally be slaughtered.
>>749033727its so easy these days with ai to figure out linux problems
>>749044640I have 64gb of ram. No issue for me
>>749044701They're not. Windows is known for being extremely memory inefficient and you have Valve, a gaming-focused company, financing Proton/Linux development and contributing low level optimizations themselves.Unless you're playing AAAA multiplayer slop or have a productivity reason to stay on Windows, don't.

>>749045801>its so easy these days with ai to figure out linux problemsNo. AI is shit and more often that not a mix of ai hallucination and users not knowing what to ask will make things worse. It's easier to just fucking search the issue on any forum.
>>749046950It's not 1gb of ram usage retard>>749044640
>>749033124Yes, the AI datacentres being propped up to enable an automated fascistic bureaucracy to support the surveillance state will totally collapse any second now and they will definitely be selling all those graphics cards, thus lowering the market price. I totally think this and will be saying it every day for the next few years.In all seriousness if that does happen I think you'll have more to worry about than graphics card prices lol>>749033939Okay but Elden Ring drops off after the first main dungeon and most of the content is shit halfassed side dungeons. It drops off even harder near the end of the game. Most importantly it just doesn't have the same sense of exploration because it's a formulaic open world setup, I mean they tried and there were some interesting discoveries but they needed to do more to give the world character.Now I think of it the one thing I'd change about DS is to remove teleporting. The sense of distance from Firelink adds a feeling of danger and geometry that really fills in the impression of the world and makes it memorable, and when you get the teleport that kind of disappears.
>>749047003Thats a base Windows 11 version without turning off the bloat
>>749047124You're not debloating +50% of memory usage. LTSCtards really love to act like LTSC fixes all of Windows' problems but really it's disabling most telemetry and slightly lower memory/CPU utilization.

>>749047690the image actually says +66%difference between a Windows-based system and a Linux-based system for a majority of Steam users is likely a very expensive and unnecessary hardware upgrade.
