Yeah, it's pretty damn hard man. Much faster than the other games in general. I beat it the first time with an estoc, which is one of the fastest weapons around with great reach, and I still had a heck of a time.  A few bosses in particular...Including one that's really neat.

I still need to work out how to do these damn npc missions.
It's cool how they keep going for faster gameplay with each souls/bloodborne game they make, or at least that's what I think is happening. Looking forward to seeing the let's play already.
I look forward to being about to read anything. Character speech is english but all text is japanese.

DS is know for being mysterious but this is a bit much~

Oh, Piecewise--I've been wondering about something for awhile.  Do you think you might be able to host a fightclub in DS3 (Or maybe DS2, I guess, if more people have that) for the Einsteinian Roulette subforum?  I think it would be really cool to fight you and other players I recognize, though I'd probably do terribly because I haven't PvPed much at all in any Souls game.  And our IRC channel could work as a nice method for communicating.

I don't know if it would work, because Dark Souls games have always had a really strange multiplayer design, but I figure you would know whether it's possible better than I.  If it is possible, I'd really love to do it.

...you can definitely do selective co-op on bloodborne, so probably pvp as well.

Orcs must die unchained just started it's first day of open beta today. It's orcs must die mixed in with the moba genre, anyone interested in checking it out with me?

I would but I'm both away from my computer and I'm not sure I'd like it much.

I'm not a big fan of MOBA's, but this one seems to keep the core gameplay of orcs must die (setting up a trap playground and watching orcs get chewed up and spat out) with moba mechanics added on top. Also, I just played a bit of it, it has traditional pve mode, which is like orcs must die 2, but with 5 people instead of 2

Oh, sweet. I suppose it makes sense given they can't really improve on the formula much.

Yeah, the moba genre did evolve out of tower defense to begin with, so it makes sense that Orcs Must Die (another modification to the tower defense genre) could be converted to a moba without fundementally changing it. Only the focus is more on killing the trash mobs than the other players

Well if you want to be technical it evolved from RTS.

MOBAs started as AOS's, named after Aeon of Strife, a very early entry in the field using Warcraft 3 as the game engine. They started using War3's hero system but also had the ability to purchase non-hero units and very few items. eventually the non-hero units were dropped and items greatly expanded, the forerunners in the field being Defense Of The Ancients and Age Of Myths. however, the term MOBA didn't enter common use until after DOTA left the War3 engine and became a standalone game, acompanied by several competing clones, notably HoN and LoL.

It is encrusted with sharkmist and HMRC. On the item is an image of HMRC and Pancaek. Pancaek is laughing. The HMRC is melting. The artwork relates to the encasing of the HMRC in metal by Pancaek during the Mission of Many People.))

Where are rest of the wiki gnomes? I noticed I have been doing rather large percentage of changes lately.
You shouldn't expect much from me for the foreseeable future. I barely have enough time to check the forums, let alone actually edit the wiki. Might edit my character or add some interesting tidbit in a page I happen to come across, but that's probably as far as I'll go.
