This game is fucking ass. I'm so tired of seeing people defending and hailing it as some masterpiece just because From Software made an actual good action RPG like the Souls series. Straight up hot garbage. Stop pretending to think this is actually good when it's not. Done rant.

Where a Morrowind will drown us under a biblical pavement of 1500 pages, the dialogues of King's Field are limited to one page of text in all and for everything in the whole game, with not very talkative NPCs which we find prostrate in a corner and merchants who get straight to the point.

>Playing Dark Souls really helped me appreciate the slow paced, mysterious dungeon adventure. Figuring out where to go, your hand never being held once. The feeling of accomplishment when you finally start getting better gear and understanding the layout of the world.
Isn't this like any other experience when playing video games?

halo 1 campaign was great. never played much multiplayer because my friends didnt have an xbox. i found 2's campaign disappointing (didnt like the arbiter stuff and felt like they were trying to be too grandiose) however its online multiplayer was probably the most fun i ever had gaming. it was just the perfect storm of zero censorship, everyone having a headset, online gaming being new to normies, and the game being so damn fun. plus no in-game stats where people tried to maximize k/d ratio or anything like that.
>>
Halo 2 was such a let down. Oh look another king of the hill section!
>>
You’ll love 3, it finds a good medium between the two. A shame you missed out on multiplayer. It was so many people’s first online game which made the environment really interesting. Maybe consider halo reach but let the series die there.

What would your ideal controller look like? I made a rough sketch of mine.
It would use the standard Gamecube controller as a base, although the controller would be sized up a bit to accommodate for a few things. The Y, X, B, and A buttons would be laid out in a similar fashion to the Super Nintendo controller. The right analog stick and d-pad would remain the same, although the d-pad would be made significantly larger. For the c-stick, I would have it be one of those flat circle-pads found on the 3DS. As for the back buttons, I would have them flattened out a bit, and a second Z-trigger added on the other side.

People attracted to Lara weren't zooming in to still screen captures. They were using their imagination to recall her character as depicted in the game, fully animated and with sound effects. She has cute animations, lots of little grunts and noises. The iconic braids and outfit. The brain fills in the rest, back when people still had brains that weren't fried by infinite porn and engagement algorithms.

Gotcha

>you can't go past floor 10 in your first visit
Again, it depends on how far into the story you go there. I went down to level 50 on my first fist, got both books, the kid and more but I went pretty late I guess. I didn't even know there was a mechanism gating progress. I never saw it.

i found the oni shield in the chaos ruins randomly
the team for the old translation has a spreadsheet for the on the github and they have some notes for some items, apparently the overlord ring is a reward for beating the game with the best ranking?
and the scepter ring is from a side quest with the lighthouse guy which is strange because i never got anything like that from him, wonder how it’s triggered

>also found the kid on my second visit at floor 15 and tome at floor 20, i also did get kicked out at floor 10 after going there right after it opened
man, you guys got me doubting myself now. maybe i'm misremembering things, it's been so long since i beat the game. but i really feel like lvl 10 was book 1, lvl 20 book 2 and the missing kid i found around floor 30. maybe the rules change with every successive main story dungeon you beat or with your character level. my version is at least somewhat corroborated by what is written below but you really can't find much on this game at all

I played a sex mod for Fallout called Fuckout or something like that. I remember you could screw Tandi, and there were two options to do it: gentle or hard; then you either saved her or left her there for the Raiders, and I ended up leaving her because screwing Tandi hard alerts them to your presence and I was too underpowered to kill them all.
