    Snagged Tales from the Borderlands for a fiver in the PSN sale. It's very funny!

    I've cooled on Telltale's output a bit in the last couple of years, but this is working for me. Turns out comedies are much better than dramas for "a random terrible thing has happened, which kinda-arbitrary shitty outcome do your prefer?"

    And the title sequence in episode two was one of the more legitimately badass things I've seen in videogames. That fuckin' music cue ruled.

    pretty much every title sequence in TftB is on point

    There are some licenses that I would be dying for in a Telltale game. One of them is James Bond or, if they can't secure that, Archer.

    I just

    I want them to make a new engine first

    All the cool licenses in the world don't mean shit if they run like absolute garbage

    A GOTG game is probably one of the top licenses I would want them to do, and they're doing it, but it's impossible to care about when you've got Batman over here running like a poorly optimized N64 title

    Like with every announcement, I just get de-hyped, because the first immediate thought is "man it's gonna run like trash and they're wasting their shot on this"

    Yeah it says something when a game with Minecraft graphics gets juddery and framey on something like the Xbox One or PS4.

    On the top menu on the home screen there's a ps plus symbol on the far left

    Click that then look for a manage membership or subscription option

    I started Bloodborne again and I'm leveling an Arcane character. Kinda slow until you can grab a Fire Gem. Then happy days.

    Attack attributes are so meaningless in those early stages of the game that I never really had an issue.

    Put all those early blood echoes into Vitality and Endurance.

    Early Arcane investment + fire gem does good damage though. End plan will be Kos Parasite + Milkweed

    That early Arcane investment isn't adding any damage though, or at least not a meaningful amount.

    Weapon scaling is based largely on the upgrade stage of the weapon, so until you're in the +7 to +9 range, your attack stats mostly do fuck all.

    I got excited last night when I saw a game called Trove in free beta on PS4, because I thought it would be an MMO with voxels, and I'll take all the voxels I can get on my PS4

    Then I downloaded it and it's a building game

    I tried to start a new 3d dot game heroes playthrough last week but my disc doesn't work anymore for some reason. It looks fine but won't load up. Pretty sad about that.

    I didn't finish it when I played it because I found out I missed an opportunity to get a sword and wouldn't be able to 100% the game, so I just got mad and turned it off.

    But I loved it and want to play it again

    I wonder how many 'hardcore' Zelda fans have never played 3D Dot Game Heroes, nor Darksiders, nor Okami.

    Probably a lot. :(

    I'm going to disagree. Once I got the first fire gem @20ARC my weapon did quite more damage. I've gotten better gems since then and I'm now @50ARC and my weapon damage has kept up (I just beat the Shadow triplets.) I also got the Executioner's Gloves and it's a great nuke vs Big guys and bosses.

    I've basically have been following this guide.

    Can't say the story in Horizon looks particularly intriguing, but at least the actual look is still pretty stunning

    Also?

    Hi Lance Reddick! You just look like yourself in this one!

    Early arcane does make molotovs hit like a truck though.
