Is 4chan dead?
She arrived a couple days ago.
>>3978115What?
>>3978106No OP links? Is the game dead?
And on the third day, the Black Souls thread returns.Been slowing down recently. Anons in here must be tired.
>>3978121I can see her underwear!! Cover her up!!!
>>3978126The game dieded
>>3978134I tought a new game has been in development since time immemorial? I still have my bs1 and 2 from the downloads given in /vg/? I think.
>>3978126>>3978132I forgot to put the linksAlso I’m not the Usual Threads Maker, I made it since a guy on another thread asked that someone make a new thread
>>3978141The new game is releasing this year, DRH
i'm all out of discussion, all questions answered, all I can do is wait for the next game.
WTF is Elma father?Why his he in the chaos Dungeon?There aren’t any other NPC there,
>>3978146>Also I’m not the Usual Threads Maker, I made it since a guy on another thread asked that someone make a new threadThat's the thread equivalent to being an adopted child.>>3978166One of two things happened to the denizens of Leaf's gardens after it broke apart in ending D of BS1. Either a) they fell down to Wonderland or b) they got snatched up by Mabel to be put into her Shatranj (Chaos Dungeon).
>>3978146Oh, okay. I actually haven't been to the threads lately and just saw the zip file as I'm decluttering my files. The coincidence of this thread, thought it was still on /vg/ or /jp/ or wherever the fuck then I rememebred seeing a thread on /vrpg/ before.>>3978147yea? nice.
>>3978133You can take it off too.
>>3978166Sylvie and Bruno are arguably NPCs
last thread was funny
>>3978125>What?Richard M. Nixon...
What do you guys think about potential surrealist influences on EMMM? I read https://www.pointnthink.fr/en/the-art-of-clair-obscur-expedition-33/ and it got me thinking about what could've inspired EMMM visually. It's clear that EMMM is very well-read and we can trace his western literary influences/references pretty well, but what about painting and design?Pic rel is by Beksinski.

literally what is the point in a rape eroge if you're not the one getting raped?
>>3980242but you do get raped silly, thrice openly, and several implied.
>>3980232I'll be fine. Literally never even caught covid, and I only took one shot of leaf government mandated vaxx.If worse comes to worst hopefully IRL Florence can pump some star fluid into me.

time to head off.I'll stop by at Sunday and maybe draw a little something as a treat.
maybe tomorrow than sunday, ah well I'll just check in when i get the time.farewell.
why does tco not care about the idiot ending the universe is he stupid
>>3980315Yeah. nyarylthotep got too lost in the sauce roleplaying as a little girl to fuck a pedophile. Emberassing
If requiem is not allowed in a SL1 run, then what about Serpent god's blood?
>>3980315TCO has gone crazy.
>>3980224>irst impressionsthat wouldn't be your first impressionyou've been here beforeyou need to wake up
>>3980344>If requiem is not allowed in a SL1 runit is, someone lied to youits just that enemies themselves eventually just say "no" to it
>>3980337he wishes to be the little girl...
>>3980418i don't think outer ones have set genders, they're asexual or hermaphroditic at best.
>>3980407>you've been here beforethat can't be, this thread doesn't look or read like an Epstein file.
>>3980583true, pharaoh nyar is just my ideal nyar. also was referencing that one image of moot that comes to mind when i think of tco. id make a drawing/edit but i dont want a 3dpd image of a man dressed like a little girl on my computer
>>3980594now i want to see Alice in a skimpy Cleopatra outfitand i believe moot did "become the little girl" on that island.

>>3980627Why does he have two right hands?
>>3980637Didn't you know that Grimm has two right hands? I don't know why Leaf made him that way.
>>3980637that's my right hand on the left, the right hand on the right is yours.we're in a petting zoo.
>>3980667i quite like red in modest clothing.
>>3980600lol.
>I missed the alice schizo postingDamn.. hope you've been doing well at least.
What would you say is your favourite fight in both games?
>>3980735
>>3980729>hope you've been doing well at least.well, not really. at best i gaslight myself with all the hCopium i can get.
*all the h(c)opium i can getdunno why the spoiler betrayed me.
>>3980735The fight itself was standard bs1 faire but his battle dialogue elevated it. Jack the ripper's fight is pretty cool for bs2
>>3980749Hopefully Alice will give you strength.. she's always looking after you after all!
>>3980735baphomet in bs1. vorpal and demonbeast dodo in bs2

>>3981127very cute
I'm getting a very bad omen that i simply cannot shake off. something is about to arrive soon and i don't know what, but i believe it was hinted to me from the first dream i had this year.
>>3981126your node looks deathly ill, is she alright?
>>3981315>something is about to arrive soon and i don't know whatYou're going to shit yourself
>>3980243 >moon >jobby what's the third one?
>>3981339not yet what the hell.>>3981343Cinderella from bs1 technicality TCO Alice is also rape, but it cant be rape if i'm letting her.
>>3980735For me it's the 3v3
>came to the conclusion that unis with her unseen horses is the hardest boss fight in the game>found out later it can be steamrolled with spiritual unity+divine beast thundereventually the fights become so easy to trivialize... thinking of trying an SL1 run. what are the rules again?
>>3980735Mabel and her goons. Really fun fight.
>>3980735I wouldn't say its my favorite but killing Jub was pretty cathartic, and Peter Pan was a fun twist on the summons
>>3981343Victoria at the train station.
>>3981380No levelling, no coloured souls, no pocket watches, and then varying degrees of not using the more overtly broken stuff like Requiem, chaos blast*, spiritual unity, snake blood, GA, other CD spells, and so on. I'm sure I'm forgetting something.*on crit-able enemies it enables a guaranteed 1HKO because haha percentage based damage still benefits from multipliers if it's classified as elemental, and even aside from that it's kinda way too good.>pic https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=asHJtVUl80Q
>>3981343leiden
>>3981416>and then varying degrees of not using the more overtly broken stuff like Requiem, chaos blast*, spiritual unity, snake blood, GA, other CD spells, and so on.this feels like it was added on after the facthell even the pocket watch rule was an addition since the first sl runs were in 1 not 2
>>3981315:)
>>3981380>what are the rules again?Do not level up, do not use colored souls. The stats you have at the beginning of the game are your stats. Period.
>>3978106Is there any femdom, ideally a route, in Black Souls 2? If there isn't I'm not interested
>>3981637There are some femdom scenes, but most of the scenes are mdom.
>>3981380These are forbidden by default for a legitimate SL1: leveling, permanent stat up items, Requiem, Spiritual Unity, and the trio of cheese items (Pocket Watches, Snake Blood, Star Fluid).Many people add a few of the other restrictions, but you can do whatever you want; it's mostly an honor system. For instance, I don't see anyone listing Throwing Knives, and yet you could cheese almost all fights with it just like you'd normally do with Watches.
where is the aliceschizo black souls website i need to save some art
>>3981710Here ya go https://beyondtherabbithole.neocities.org/
i really need to renovate it someday, the fitness page is completely outdated! (I'm a full blown chad-lite now).
Anyone got that "required media to understand Black Souls" picture on hand?
>>3981808
>>3981820Many thanks. Speaking of which, last time that was shared ITT the anon who did so also accompanied it with Lewis's Faces in the Fire poem. However the version he posted is not the more commonly found one, although it is present in some websites in the form he posted. Chiefly the portion about the girl as a mother is in only one of the two. Is anyone able to verify that both versions did exist in Lewis's published works and if the change happened between the first time it was published in 1860 and when it was published again in 1869?
>>3981416>>3981653well, fuck you, how was i supposed to beat the butcher and jubjub then? i've been refraining fron using it since i got the kishingatana and black goat ring
>>3981899the serpent's god blood, i mean
>>3981915Aside from Resurrectionist being basically a mandatory ring for some portions of the game, anything that's a single hit can be lived through with grit. Also if you really want to get down to it there's some insane optimization you can do with weaponswaps. Also guarding with soul shield legitimately gives you so much damage reduction.
>>3981899JubJub is after Goat ring so you can easily defeat her in a straightforward manner.The Butcher is annoying boss because he guards the candies for Goat and has decent stats, though there are a lot of ways to do the fight cleanly. This is one of the few early encounters where speedmaxing is not ideal by default, but Node's covenant plus good rings let you tank him. The cock&friends summon does excellent damage to him if you give it a Mead, though in that case you have to be fast enough to heal it up before the boss. If you can live through his rage attack, Andor+5 and weaponswapping into it for last action also works. And if all else fails, sleep+poison with high Speed+Luck should be doable but painful, though I didn't try it. And you can just hope to get lucky with aggro on the summon, which is a dumb 'strategy', but it works fairly quickly.There's a practically infinite number of things you can do to beat the bosses in this game.>>3981945It's been several months since I did that fight, but I'm like 95% sure his rage attack multihits.
>>3981416percentage damage as a whole is a meme. even with those restrictions, black wave+hammer for instance is ridiculous. wanna use kaizer knuckles and beasthunter saw as primary damage buffer and dealer tools. i assume immortality stuff being disallowed means guardian angel is also banned? doesnt seem like a big problem with guard being as strong as it is>>3981621>>3981653i see. the plan is to beat most bosses in the game including the cd ones and leiden and unis before making the decision to join either. curious how the edith and onimusha fights are gonna go
>>3981951Edith completely jobs to the Storm Ruler, it turns the entire fight into a joke.
>>3981637i wonder if alice's scenes count
>>3981951Most people I've seen ban black wave too, if you even bother to get it. CD grinding is annoying enough as it is.>guardian angelI'd assume so except for the owl, but you get it so late it barely matters for most of the game.>onimushaMight be the case that you actually take into account her attacks all being a specific damage type.
>>3981951>>3982104Onimusha is highly dependent on when you do AR. She's easy with a certain DLC3 upgrade that enables you to use spells. But if you're pre-DLC3 and still rocking the Goats as your base, it will hurt a lot. Remember that you don't get to use items there. I wasn't able to clear Ashes in a couple attempts pre-DLC3, but it was very easy afterwards.>>3982104Guardian Angle is not even that good for SL1. It's the best armor in a normal, blind gameplay, but losing all buffs means that you're often dying next turn on most lategame bosses at SL1. Sometimes it does save you, but the remaining fights are better approached with specific gear turned to that encounter rather than a hail mary dice roll. Aside from the Owl3 fight.
>Alice's thread reached bump limitVictory!
>>3982245Ehh, you won't be so lucky next time.
>>3982108>It's the best armor in a normal, blind gameplayDebatable with how good some of them are, and definitely not true once you exclude the blind part. I think Rainment and the high evasion one are the go-tos most of the time, or Sun for raw damage, but I may be forgetting some.
>>3981820>Friday the 13th>Complete Series?cant wait for drh to reference jason goes to hell and jason xhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=m1WJzTTRuRk
>>3982281>?Toro is a known self admitted fan of western horror movies and some DRH screenshots show a clear Jason reference, and there may be stuff already in BS too. One of his more recent posts was about the new Final Destination IIRC.
>>3982293i know, just dont think the entire friday series is required viewing to understand that hockey masked character considering how absurd the later entries got. movies 1-4 or 1-7 are the ones id consider required watches to understand jason voorhees conceptually.
>>3982303That's the thing you take issue with in the picture?
time for my once in 6 months check up. is there anything to play beyond 1 aand 2 yet and will there ever be :( plase gib update!11
>>3982245Billfag thread didn't make it... Should not have checked archive for what happened. At least the non-LARP meta narrative thread made it!
>>3982322You can play Red Hood's Woods if you haven't yet.BS1 and BS2 were both ported to Steam with slight translation improvements and uncensored art.A BS-inspired game came out but has not been translated yet afaik.Toro said Dead Red Hood is coming out this year.
>>3982317its not really a big deal. complete series suggests the films after part 8 must be watched to understand whatever's gonna happen in drh and i cant imagine toro sincerely putting in references to any of the later movies. theyre just too irrelevant to the previous ones and actually insane
jason would ask us why we don't kill for our mother
Oh shit just noticed the cards are in stock again. Also fuck Buyee for forcing me to pay in USD and pocketing an extra dollar from the currency conversion.
>>3982247and next time I'll be waiting for you with a flyswatter
>>3982355how unfortunate of Jason to get bumped by my kerbal straight into the atmosphere after my 4th botched mun mission
if i love Alice more will she make the paranoid schizophrenic episode go away?

Just started playing BS 1 today (after an anon gave me a heads up not to start with 2), also have the patch installed
>>3983405I can almost hear the music just by looking at this screenshot.
>>3983405Good luck anon. This thread can be a bit spoilery for 1 (and for 2 sometimes) so be careful, but it is probably best to have you post here and not in the NGO threads. Also just in case you'd missed this: >>>/a/288010158 >>3983413I need to replay BS1 soon. I got nostalgic when I happened to listen to that track again. Kind of an underrated one, though I understand why Name, Alice steals the spotlight as moody BS1 track.

Can you get a black goat ring without buying it? I may be misremebering, but i think a boss soul gives you one>>3983493Gay
>>3983648Why is she so fucking OP?
>>3983493Indeed.>>3983582>Can you get a black goat ring without buying it?Yes.At random in the Chaos Dungeon, Depth >=5 or so.>i think a boss soul gives you oneNone of them do.It's Shubbie's Ring. Why would any boss that drops a soul in BS2 give you that one.
>>3983509>this fontI still don't understand why they decided to change it for Steam version.
>>3983725I don't mind it. It fits the whimsical aesthetic.
>hes playing the steam versioni shiggy diggy, i'm betting 100 euros you're gonna take the path of least resistance as well
>>3983773
>>3983734Holy shit
>>3983777There is nothing wrong with the Steam version as long as you replace the godawful font and revert the music changes
>>3983797Changing the font messes up some specific formatting changes they made because of the new font, pirate the dlsite version if it bothers you that much
>>3983801So you're better off doing a image swap to the DLsite version instead? Oh well.The best version is still a fusion.
>>3983797I don't think BS1 had soundtrack changes, did it?>>3983804>So you're better off doing a image swap to the DLsite version instead?No because the Steam versions have a slightly better translation.

>>3983833wait shit black souls is still relevant? my bad.
>>3983835using spoilers is an sign of civility, and when you abandon your civil duties you become the online equivalent to what the world is today. a cesspit of upmost degeneracy forever cannibalizing its own tail.
>>3983837nyooooo
>>3983839and besides, only niggercattle care about "relevancy". and everything relevant today is so deceptively decrepit twisted and corrupt to the core to the point deserves no less than to be tossed into the deepest bowels of oblivion and left to wither away into nothing.
>>3983841I just assumed everyone here has already read black souls, that's all.
>>3983842there are still newcomers who come from time to time, so be a good example to them.
>>3983835>>3983843Funny enough yeah, I heard about the name like once or twice but that's about it an anon sold me on /a/ by mentioning how you can kill a fairy by cumflation as my first sex scene so I started playing yesterday.Ironically I didn't find that scene as of yet, nor I did any rape at all despite my love for degeneracy (ignore the fact that's the first thing I tried with leaf)
Also fuck this rose, took me 15 minutes to find it.
>>3983898Somehow I found it in just a couple of minutes.
should i buy a third Black goar ring? i'm doing a SL1 run btw, also, are conflagration and absolute precision "allowed"?
>>3983943I don't think there's any harm in getting one more, though I think they also drop in the CD. If you're wearing one you might as well wear more than one anyway most of the time.>conflagration and absolute precisionThe first one's a fairly standard damaging spell IIRC, nothing overtly particularly strong or banworthy about it. AP you could forbid yourself from using if you wanted to for the sake of the challenge but honestly it's just a really big QoL most of the time and I don't think I've ever seen anyone list it as not allowed.
>>3983943It's a little boring, but all the way until DLC3, your "optimal" braindead ring setup for most fights is probably 4 Goats, or 3 Goats + 1 anti-instakill ring for fights where that applies.Seconding the other anon, I've never seen anyone ban AP. People don't seem to ever ban any offensive buffs aside from Black Wave, and some of the best weapons/spells have the AP effect built-in.
>>3983943spells and equipment should not ever be limited, and I'll die on this hillespecially since whatever people consider OP, enemies can either negate them (requiem), ignore them(usually a single status immunity, not too bad), or literally do the same thing back to you (go find the vid of the guy who got chain stun locked by the orcs lmao)
