We got him the very next try after beating Laurence.

I beat the Orphan on my second try which blew my friend's mind when I told him.I really love that fight, its probably my second favorite in Bloodborne.

[Random]

It is definitely the kind of fight I can see you enjoying. sick fuck

[ganonfloyd]

*looks up pre DSIII top boss list*

he's at number ten overall and is the highest bloodborne boss other than ludwig

[Random]

Well it's done.

I think it took me four tries to best Gehrman. Great fight, and a close one, too. I ended up switching to Ludwig's, and I had to pull out the Old Hunter's Bone to use his trick against him. I couldn't figure out his timings, so I didn't parry very much. Probably could have been way cleaner.

Then the Moon Presence came and it killed me once because I only had two vials left. Was a joke the second time, especially using the Empty Phantasm Shell.

That ending, haha.


Boss rankings forthcoming.

Definitely my favorite soulsborne game. Very little hesitation. It just feels good to play this game in a way that the other games don't quite match. Love the environment and atmosphere, too. Man. Yeah this is a good one.

[ganonfloyd]

Excellent. I wish I liked the gameplay as much as everyone else did (I think it feels like a weird middle ground between a Souls style action RPG and a straight action game at times that didn't click with me like it does for other people) but in terms of visuals and environment its pretty much untouched.

Bosses
1. Lady Maria of the Astral Clocktower
2. Martyr Logarius
3. Gehrman, The First Hunter
4. Father Gascoigne
5. Ludwig, the Accursed/the Holy Blade
6. Mergo's Wet Nurse
7. Darkbeast Paarl
8. The Orphan of Kos
9. Vicar Amelia
10. Laurence, the First Vicar
11. Cleric Beast
12. The Shadow of Yharnam
13. The One Reborn
14. Moon Presence
15. Ebrietas, Daughter of the Cosmos
16. Amygdala
17. Blood-starved Beast
18. Micolash, Host of the Nightmare
19. Rom, The Vacuous Spider
20. The Witch of Hemwick
21. Celestial Emissary
22. Living Failures

This list is kinda rushed, but I know I definitely favor the duels against other hunters and hunter-type things. Orphan of Kos seems a little high, but I guess I have to grudgingly admit that he's more memorable than a several of the others. "Formality" fights mostly make up the end of the list.

Anyway, the march of progress through video games must not cease, so I'm doing as many side ops (poorly) as I can in GZ tonight before starting MGSV tomorrow.

[Random]

Forgot to say that I heard Youef's voice for the first time yesterday. He sounds like a human.

[ganonfloyd]

I met youef in person twice get on my level.

[Random]

hard to do that without being on your latitude

[Maniac]

yeah, well I, uh... talked to Darkblaze! like, once, six years ago

[ganonfloyd]

hard to do that without being on your latitude

we're on the server half of the us though so it could be worse

[Random]

Started MGSV. Rescued Miller and more importantly like three cassette tapes. My priorities are well inline.

[Random]

My next mission went pretty well. No alert phases, no retries. Another tape successfully liberated from enemy tapedecks ("Kids in America"). Though I'm trying to figure out if taking tapes alerts enemies? I had to CQC three dudes coming through the door (including my target lol) after nabbing it, and I'm not sure if it was because of that or if I was just seen through the window.

Also not sure how to get the iDroid to dismiss when I've looked at a new recruit in the staff management window. Annoying for my notification OCD.



And how do people feel about me posting spoiler-type stuff for this game? I didn't smalltext anything for Bloodborne 'cause that game had been out for a year. This one came out in September and I dunno how much people care.
