About to start the 3rd act of DQ11, what a great JRPG, don’t think it will surpass DQ8 for me, but it’s certainly close.

Working on another Dark Souls SL1 playthrough, last time I used pyromancy mainly so I’m sticking with melee this time. Probably going to stick with a fire reinforced club until I can get the giant blacksmith hammer. That or a lightening club if I can’t bring myself to whack the giant blacksmith. Definitely miss having combustion and great chaos fireball

Also playing Dark Souls 3 again when I need a break from the SL1 run, nice relaxing claymore build. Love how atmospheric that game is, I’ve mostly been clearing areas and then walking around taking screenshots and admiring the art.

Dark Souls 3 has the best music except for one theme I really like in Dark Souls 2 (I know, I know, nobody @ me!).

Also, now there's going to be a DQ 12... I think? Or is it DQ 13?

[–] Charlie@lemmygrad.ml 2 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

DQ 12, they haven’t said much about it though beyond the initial reveal. Supposedly it’s going to be much darker in tone. The series creator called it “Dragon Quest for adults”, which after playing and not really liking FF16, which also went for a darker tone, I’m anxious to see more!

While DS1 is my comfort blanket, DS2 is my favorite! Majula slaps too hard and I like how different it was from DS1. I don’t even mind adaptability, lol

True, but it apparently had the "same story" as the previous one (didn't play DS1).
