More surreal art/production design than Souls has been except at the very margins of the world e.g. Ash Lake

Maybe Tim Schafer and GRRM can get together and learn how to write on videogame production schedules

I’m probably not able to pick up on those nuances, yeah. But like the animations and general direction of the game looks same old to me. But I’ll withdraw from that discussion because like I said I’m no Souls fan, I don’t know what I’m talking about. Still hope you’re all hype for ghost horse action, if you were hype before
The most From Software move is to be ever-incremental, ever-patient

Fair, but the animation’s “crudeness” (scare quotes doing a lot of work) is functional and adding more polish would come at the cost of latency and ultimately design

Elden Ring is especially interesting to me because I can’t recognize what genre it’s really going for. There’s so many different motifs of genre going on in what we’ve been shown, I am puzzled by what it’s going to end up feeling like when we get to play it. And that is cool to me.

If you peer pressure me enough I’ll pick it up for the PS5 because that’s just the type of person I am! I love experiencing the same stuff as the people I like. It’s no good for my wallet but I love playing the same stuff as others
What else are you gonna play with a PS5?
do you think From Software has figured out their frame pacing issues yet?

All the games I missed out on by not having a PS4 haha But yeah, that backlog should be done by the time Elden Ring comes out
Edit: that includes Bloodborne, so From has yet another chance to sway me
for some reason when they run the code on next-gen the problems fixed themselves, engineers report. “All done here”

the test PCs here are theoretically slower than both new consoles and the frametime at 1080p60 is almost always 16ms on the Nvidia card
Now, whether they’ll do the right thing and forego a 4K 30hz mode remains to be seen

they were all scheduled to go on stage tomorrow afternoon but i am getting word from the local police department that their desiccated corpses were found upthread, burnt up to crisp at the stake once they were discovered by the townfolk as sexless normies
