Topic: Gameplay sharing thread: Random stuff

Here's a couple of my Dark Souls 'gravity always wins' fails.

I'm actively trying to avoid this from happening, game was having none of it.

Here I completely whiff my attack only to get my fail misery compounded.

@Shigurui The lift going up in the first video really rubs salt into the wound there

@Shigurui I really loath fights in areas where you can accidentally fall off an edge to instant death. Feels so cheap.

@BearsEatBeets Its kinda how the games work. Getting to know your surroundings so it doesn't happen again. You also use it to you advantage by kicking enemies of the edges.

@Thrillho - I was laughing so much at the lift carrying my corpse back up that the death didn't bother me at all.

@BearsEatBeets - You get used to it in Souls games. Falling has killed me more than anything else in the series.

@Shigurui Oh boy that Dark Souls 2 one - I feel for you! I have done similar things on many many games.

The weird thing is that I get vertigo in video games if I feel unsafe. It is so weird.

@Rudy_Manchego - I get the same thing! Crossing beams and stuff always makes me a bit shaky hah. Very strange.

Given that this topic is for random stuff, I've got just the video.

This was captured during a leisurely couple hours I spent on Star Wars: Battlefront II the other day. The first clip features some perfect timing with the in-game soundtrack, and then there's a killstreak in Starfighter Assault (plus some later stunts) that I was proud enough of to wanna preserve. It ends with me being a cheeky little backwards-talking imp. Captured it for myself, and to show a fellow fan, but figured that I might as well post it here, too.

Only just around to watching @RogerRoger, looks like you're pretty handy in a starfighter. Nicely edited by the way. I haven't played it in quite a while but this has made me tempted to play it again.

@BearsEatBeets Thank you! My skill is entirely random. Some days, I can get that good, but most others, I only string together a couple kills before I'm debris. Luck of the server draw as well, I suppose; there are a lot of absolute aces out there.

If you're ever online and fancy a might-be-average-to-good wingman, therefore, let me know.

@RogerRoger Sounds like fun, I'll have to add you to my friends list and see if we're ever online at the same time.

@BearsEatBeets Thanks! When I'm next on my PS4 (kinda demonstrating how rare such an occurrence might be, alas) I'll reach out if you haven't already.

A couple of, um... "highlights" from my time with Star Wars: Bounty Hunter this week.

First up, my favourite kind of glitch: a broken NPC.

Then there's whatever this is. A texture issue? A lighting glitch? No idea, but it looks cool, and I can't wait for the inevitable Black Series action figure.

@RogerRoger That NPCs not broken, he just wanted to practice his swimming strokes when he thought no-one was looking.

@BearsEatBeets ...and then he looks through the grate, sees Jango watching him, and tries to swim away even faster. Bless him!

@Shigurui How do you post pictures on here? I'd like to upload some of my own gameplay.
Also, how do you feel about 60fps Dark Souls III on PS5? It might be worth it, over Demon's Souls.

@Draco_V_Ecliptic - For pictures just post the image link between img tags [ img ][ /img ], remove the extra spaces for the tags to work. For video just post the link and the forum will embed the video for you.

Not sure I'll play DkS3 again when I eventually get a PS5. I played it on a PS4 Pro pre FPS patch and got the platinum post patch and never played it since. Apart from a few boss fights I didn't think much of the game overall.

While I do like the Souls games I don't think 2 or 3 are as good as the first Dark Souls and I much prefer Ninja Gaiden and DMC for my hack/slash fix. Higher difficulty with far better combat.

@Shigurui Yeah I think Dark Souls 1 is the best - Do you reckon Demon's Souls on PS5 will be just as good? (In terms of gameplay and combat difficulty) I thought the bosses in Dark Souls 3 ,such as Dancer of the Boreal Valley and Champion Gundyr were harder than the bosses in Dark Souls 1, though, thanks for telling me how I can post my images, I'll get back to that later.

@Draco_V_Ecliptic - I think DeS will be better seeing as the framerate won't tank like it could in the original. As for DkS3 bosses I didn't have too much trouble with Dancer as I fought it quite a lot in the network test version. I didn't struggle much with either of the Gundyr fights but the Twin Princes kicked my butt real hard for a while. For some reason that was probably the hardest fight in the game for me.

Not mine but this is brilliant;
