Oh yeah!

The more I browse gaf, the more I want to watch bollywood movies.

Also, great temp title.

 

[Mik3F]

Is Lone Survivor and the Saw cleaver a good starter for a Souls n00b?

 

[hitgirl]

Looking forward to the reviews coming in tonight.

 

[NinjaMuffin]

An OT by the Mod God himself what an honor.

Got an E-Mail today that my copy of Bloodborne shipped, I'm starting to get nervous...=)

 

[bombshell]

Come on, From. Why would they downgrade a simple control option? I despise the way jumping is handled in DkS1...

I actually don't know how you jump in Bloodborne, just reminded you about the DS4 customization

 

[Xeroblade]

ohhhhh boy here we go!

 

[sankt-Antonio]

One hour in - you can tell it's going to be a hell of a ride.

 

[Mechazawa]

Yo, can we just keep the Black Jesus OT? This is already the best it can get.

 

[Nivert]

Come on, From. Why would they downgrade a simple control option? I despise the way jumping is handled in DkS1...

The first thing I did in DkS2 was change it back to O lol I prefer it. Maybe just because I was used to it.

 

[Mitch]

I didn't preorder, I should be able to find the collectors edition, right?

I'm in the same boat. Hitting up BB right when they open, so we'll see what kind of luck I have.

Questions for you guys:

What gender will your first character be, and what will be his/her name?

I'm making a female Hunter, and naming her Helvetica (I used this name for most of my female Souls characters).

What Origin will you choose?

I'm going with a Skill (the new DEX) build, so I'm going with whatever has the highest Skill to start with. Spoiler: it's the

origin.

Female
Ophelia
Dex

 

[RealityPales]

Listening to the Cleric Beast theme on a loop until midnight.

 

[Flying Toaster]

You know shit is hardcore when Bish makes the temp OT.

 

[KINGofCRA5H]

edit: ^ I've barely been here two years and even I that shit is the truth.




Still not sure if I'm going to get this.


Congrats to every one who cannot contain the hype! I certainly know the feeling. It's almost time!

 

[Shadow_FFVI]

Here we go! This game will be amazing.

 

[Yoshichan]

I actually don't know how you jump in Bloodborne

I've already seen plenty of people on stream "accidentally" jump since they're running while trying to roll away.

 

[owlbeak]

So ready! Let's do this!

 

[fastmower]

Tonight's going to be great! Fuck sleeping!

I successfully time traveled in 1:1 real-time from "project beast" rumors day to this to present day, finally. It's been a long journey.

 

[darkwing-buck]

Me tomorrow night.

Recently posted this in the spoilers thread as impressions but spoiler free:

So I’ve had the game since about mid-day Saturday and I’ve put just shy of 12 hours and level 40. I just want to say, I’m absolutely in love with this game. It’s dark and gritty, some of the sounds and enemies are just downright creepy. I also have to say, the crows are some of the scariest fucking things in a game ever. I can’t believe they still sometimes scare the shit out of me when I don’t notice them and suddenly one attacks. Seriously, one of the scariest fucking sounds in the game and with headphones on. They are weak and easy but that shit makes me poop every time.

As others have seen on streams and impressions, the combat is very souls like but here it just so much faster paced. I still find myself trying to get certain enemies alone to better micro manage the fights yet I go right into the fights usually. Dodging, rolling away, and learning when to attack and back off. It’s Dark Souls but it’s quicker, faster, and more intense. I adjusted fairly quickly to this and upon getting the first shield in the game, sold it quickly because I don’t have time for that.

The first area of the game is rather massive. I have finally started to get to other areas, two of which I didn’t exactly plan on. One area I had to leave because these enemies were totally wrecking me. I think I’ve fought about 5 bosses and with one I had to bail on because it was destroying me rather quickly.

While I think folks that never liked this genre won’t find much to bring them into the fold. Others will eat this up and with its victorian setting/style, If it keeps up, will be my favorite out of all the previous titles. I’ve still got a ton more to play, but the cohesiveness of it all and the story bits I’m getting. I’m absolutely enthralled with this game. Can’t wait for everyone to get their hands on it come tonight/tomorrow.

 

[Soriku]

Who's in charge of the OT anyway? Or have we been so lost in hype we forgot to assign someone to it?

 

[Error]

I'm so ready.

 

[--R]

The true Bloodborne starts here.

 

[velvet_nitemare]

There will be blood!!

 

[super-famicom]

Yo, can we just keep the Black Jesus OT? This is already the best it can get.

Maybe we can just add more stuff to it, like Origin starting stats and what the starting weapons are. But yeah, the OT is too good to give up/

 

[1337Sauce]

This OT is going to be moving way too fast. Excited for that Souls game OT hype though!

 

[Macho Madness]

 

[Kuni]

Anyone know when the servers are coming online (or if they are already)? I'm in UK and I'm hoping to get it early.

 

[kamorra]

So ready! Let's do this!

Going with a male Hunter named Renfield. Same Origin as you for the same reasons, haha.

Bish my man, thanks for the OT.

I'm hyped to the max.

What are the perks of choosing Dex?

edit: BONUS THEME SONG to listen to while waiting

This is great.

 

[graffix13]

I'm waiting for the reviews and for my copy to arrive. GIVE IT TO ME!

OMG

 

[Reckheim]

The wait for the shipping notification is killing me, super excited and great OT.

 

[IAmRandom31]

been a crazy ass ride with this game all the way through development. From that pre-E3 " trailer " being leaked, which looked stylish as fuck, to the constant " BUT THIS COULD ACTUALLY NOT BE EXCLUSIVE " stuff thereafter, to the E3 CG trailer that everyone just adored, to the alpha and gamescom and everything else.

Been hooked on every single photo released for this game and the gifs man. those gifs!

 

[MattyG]

What time is the embargo up at again?

 

[Steroyd]

Friday >_<

I know that feel bro.

Hell Ya!! Got some comp time and will be playing tomorrow afternoon.

 

[Bluenoser]

180 posts in 12 minutes for a temp OT thread. Impressive.

If anyone didn't know- the UP button gives you 5 Quicksilver bullets for a sacrifice in health. Handy I guess if you have lots of health and no bullets left, but I wish they shipped with instruction books so I didn't have to waste health finding this out.

 

[jaaz]

Please, PLEASE keep this OT. The title is amazing.
