  1. So I decided to download Dark Souls Prepare to Die edition again, and then I proceeded to download and install DSFIX and Watchdogs, problem is when I installed them the only thing I changed in DSFIX was the frame rate and I changed nothing in Watchdogs, but for some reason this is what my game looks like any help would be appreciated. http://i1259.photobucket.com/albums/ii558/Stelevein/Dafuqq%20dark%20souls_zpsoyhd6qk5.png
  2. I originally wrote this on an Old RP forum of mine, but thought it might help some new players here! I have been RP-ING for a few years now and when I first started out they were indeed one liners, I think I have come a long way since then but I didn't do it by myself I had help. Please don't take this as any offense as I mean none by it but I believe when RP-ING learning new techniques makes us grow as a person and develops our characters more Starting a thread Sometimes starting a thread can be hard and they do vary in size. The best way to get a good size post in for the first thread is to explain a few things about your character and the environment around them. First paragraph Discribe the area around you. Even if you posted in a forum that is named "The forest" Still discribe it. Are you in tree intested one where the tracks are hard to find, or is there a set foot path to make your journey easier? Also add what time it is, not like 4:32pm but is it late afternoon? Evening? Early Morning? Is there mist around you? Animals? What can you hear? You'd be surprised how much you type when you think of these things, of course you dont have to add them all. Second paragraph Here is where your character makes his/her enterence, discribe them. Even if you used a picture in your application discribed what they look like today. Their clothes/armor, if they have just woken up is their hair messy? Are they injured? Feeling sick? Also add what they are doing here, so their actions. Are they camping out? Hunting? On their way to a new town? Left a town? Are they being followed and therefore are they walking cautiously? Third paragraph Their thoughts. Discribe how they are feeling, are they depressed because they just lost a friend. Angry because they were in a fight? Happy because they got lucky? (And you know what I mean) Forth paragraph Finally leaving the thread open for someone to enter and meeting another character. From here you could say you heard something and hid to see who it was. Bumped into someone, attacked by an NPC and your out numbered. If you choose the first one desribe where you hid, are they nervous about who was following them? If you choose the second, did you fall on your backside or just stumble back? If your choose the last one, how many are there? What are they? (Human, Vampire, Lycan, Demon, ETCETERA?) Replying to a thread Replying can be just as hard as starting a thread. First paragraph What were they doing before they met the other character? Were just out for a stroll? Second paragraph Like the second one above discribe them. Third paragraph Now depending on how the other post is left open depends on this thread. This is your reaction. If they choose a hiding spot, did you see a shadow move? Are your spidey senses tingling? Also you could say "Come out I know your there." Or "I think I need to cut back on the ale, I'm seeing things." Or something along those lines for when its there turn to post back that they can reply to. Forth Paragraph Your thoughts, what do you think about the other character? Are they rude? Do you think their handsome/beautiful? If the other has scars what are your thoughts about them? eg, do you think the other is a warrior who has seen many battles? Do you feel sorry for them because of the scars? If your a Elf and the other is a Human, what is your thoughts about another race? This helps the other person know what you think of their character, it builds relationships, friendships and can make different enemies. From here on From here on the only things you have to worry about in your post are, discribing their actions towards the other character. Maybe add a bit of your history in case the other person hasn't had a chance to read it. eg, talk about why they have a lot of pride or why they are stubborn. If you feel your character likes the other, explain it to them in your thoughts, so even though its not said out loud they have an idea where you want their friendship to lead. If your character is male and your posting with a female character, does anything about that other character interests yours? If they flirt with you how would you react. Just remember those little things and you'd be surprised how long a thread can last or where it could lead. And TaDa, you have yourself a longer post then you normally would do. Posting more is good, the more detail you can give about your character the more the other person can reply too. Which means a longer thread and story line for your characters. As I said its just some helpful hints and you don't have to follow them at all, I just wanted to pass on my years of RP-ING experience around. Also these aren't set rules just a guide line into making longer posts.
  3. I couldn't get into it, but maybe ten minutes. The combat was slow and horrible. I hated the way you had to pick your hit percentage and do it like five times in a row. If they would have kept the combat the same as Chrono Trigger, then I think I would have really loved the game. As for the combat being slow, it just seemed like the characters movements during combat were very slow, slow to move to an enemy and then slow to swing a weapon, it frustrated me at just how slow it was. The hit percentage added a type of strategy. Later on in the game (much later) it actually becomes pretty invaluable once you get to know the system. But certain status effects in the game ruined what could have been a pretty decent system, literally throwing it out the window. And the characters move super slow, and the game knows it. During new game+ you get an object that lets you speed up or slow down the game by holding certain buttons down. They should have just made the game faster in my opinion. That's the problem, why did they not just make the game faster? Instead of forcing you to deal with super slow actions until you beat it. Plus let's be honest, it's one of those games that once you beat you are most likely to not touch it again so it was/is pointless for the item at that point. Aside from that, with how bland the game is, it just seems like they rushed it.

  5. Well, I never really owned my own playstation console, but I had friend and family who did. My favorite playstation 1 game was Final Fantasy IX hands down, and to this day is my favorite FF game, I even own it on PS3 and PS4 now......as for PS2 I didn't really play much PS2, really the only games I played on PS2 was KH 1-2, so I'd have to say those. Funny cause I now own those on PS4 as well! lolz I was excited for Chrono Cross after having played Chrono Trigger and loving it, but Chrono Cross was a let down!
