Calgary Thread 2016

i have literally never listened to a single second of any justin bieber song

i couldn’t even tell you the name of a song he’s done, let alone what it sounds like

undertale music makes every fighting game combo video better

Pretty much everyone is Calgary. Except the treacherous west coast snakes.

cool games of 2015 for me (in no particular order)

hearthstone (still don’t go a day without playing)
fallout 4 (thanks bethesda for another 100+ hrs i’ll never get back)
metal gear solid 5 (RIP Konami)
mortal kombat X (it was awesome for a while and the fan service is one of a kind - a game i can play as predator or jason vorhees will win in my books anyday).
street fighter v beta (got them vanilla feels for the duration of beta 3… really looking forward to the full meal deal).

Games

FFXIV

I am pretty much the crusher of worlds in this game now.

Undertale

watta game.

Bloodborne

I like it but I can’t help feeling like I am waiting for Dark Souls 3 now too.

Hey baby.

Come to Butthead.

Awww shit do we already have a Game of the Year contender for 2016?

oops, I accidentally beat bloodborne last night.

Kinda rushed into the final boss encounter and accidentally picked a fight, then beat it on my first try. :\

new game plus it is. I don’t believe I had come even close to doing everything.

edit: my impressions

[details=Spoiler]So I beat the following bosses that I can recall;
Cleric beast
Gascoigne
Yharnam shades
Witch
Amygdola
Nightmare Host
Wet Nurse
Vicar amelia (i think that’s her name)
The First One or whatever it’s name is
Rom
Darkbeast
First Hunter

I might be missing one that I don’t remember.

Overall impression is that random enemy encounters are harder than some of the bosses.

Those brain-eye-frenzy-blood-monsters in the Nightmare are fucking crazy hard to beat. I got hit by their grab so many times. So ashamed. I wish you could buy sedatives to take them on. They just do so much damage with frenzy.

I beat a couple of those bosses on my first tries. The only ones that I thought were hard were Gascoigne and Amelia. First go around Gascoigne was the only one who represented a real roadblock. Cleric Beast, Amygdola, Wet Nurse, and First Hunter I beat on my first try. Some of them just don’t do enough damage or put enough pressure on. First Hunter I got a bit lucky but pulled off some timely parries and heavy R2. I was using the axe weapon. Two handed mostly, strength / vit build.

But yeah, I Beat the wet nurse (destroyed more like) then came back to find the hunter’s dream on fire. Not realizing the hunter under the tree was the final boss, he asked me if I wanted to wake up and I said “REFUSE”. I thought it would deprompt the dialogue / continuation. Nope, fight, but it’s all good, killed him my first try. Desperately hoping the game wasn’t over it was and now I’m in new game plus.

But I’m kind of grateful because I had a friend guiding me through it and TBH I don’t like that shit when playing these kind of games. He interfered too much. and a friend helped me kill First One and Darkbeast whom we raped. It’s far too easy with help of any kind.

Now I am just trying to piece this story together.

Great game but I’m looking forward to Dark Souls 3. I like the style of Bloodborne but I don’t love it. The whole beasts / stake drivers / hunt aspect is dope and when it becomes nightmare fuel shit it’s super intense. Just want to figure out HOW that happened w/ the item descriptions etc. But I kind of prefer knights / armour etc more than beasts / Lovecraft / hunting.

You missin’ out fam. Just try and resist the involuntary body movements while listening to the biebster.

I don’t believe you bro. lol

Ricky probably head pops/fist pump to Taylor Swift secretly while driving in his car.

here, try this funk-jazz-synth pop w/monster bassist cover of what I think is his most popular song

https://youtu.be/KjVGJ3YFDc8

or this 800% slower version which turns into a prog synth space epic. perfect BG music for No Man’s Sky

https://youtu.be/QspuCt1FM9M

I’m sure you have listened to one… but probably just didn’t realize it was a Bieber song.

haha to be fair, his music has gotten a lot better over the years. it started as teeny bopper music but its decent RnB now

tfw its 2016 and you convert into a belieber

peter’s got a daughter, so he’s got an excuse… at least, he should prepare his ears.
