Nintendo Switch Pro is coming soon! You guys would probably have more fun with that than a PS5. The switch is the top selling every year and the PRO will be even more funner!
Also Pokemon Snap, Mario 3D, Zelda 2, Mario Kart 9, and Metroid!!!!
I need more time. I just got some PC games and haven't even had time to turn them on. No time to even jerk off.
atleast your not playing animal crossing like my other friends lol.

demon souls is the first in the dark souls series.
And possibly the most frustrating.
Also, Barnaby, Dark Souls 3 was a cakewalk compared to the previous Souls games imo. Still very fun though. That video you posted looks like a n00b playing: they are greedy and not taking advantage of the enemies' attacks in the deaths I was looking at. Jeebus, they had a shield equipped for the few I watched

Precisely, pretty sure you find Uchi somewhere in there. I typically do quality builds with supplementation of magic. You can definitely grind there before you stack intelligence though, the enemies aren't nearly as difficult as their amount of souls would suggest.

I don't think I'm playing DS correctly.. Im running a royalty character and build on strength endurance dexterity and others of the like. I'm also sticking with the same weapons and just upgrade those. It's more of a hack and slash while blocking kinda game for me.
I feel like I'm missing out on something now.. I'm currently on 3-1 and have beat 1-1 and 2-1. Can't beat that big ball of zombie guys..

I've only played 3 but Dex and str are two different weapon class requirements for damage. Dark Souls is a game where you want to min-max. Keep everything as low as possible that isn't necessary so you can dump everything into meeting requirements and then maximizing damage or whatever else is going to get you through each challenge.

I always pump endurance first for more stamina, then I split points between str and dex. I don't touch vitality much, and then I pump intelligence a little after i start dealing decent physical damage. Pumping endurance/stamina/equip load first allows me to progress faster, it may work for you as well.
Putting points into both dex and str is the quality build to which I referred earlier.

I never got into the online play.. I did beat the game though.. it was so much fun. I've sorta kinda been wanting to try it out on my ps5.
Also. Fuck the Tower Knight! Fuck him to hell! He's easy, they say. Go for the ankles.. fuck you. Eat my ass.

One thing to keep in mind ST, after reading numerous articles/reviews on these latest next gen consoles, is that quite a few people I saw were saying how they weren't exactly blown away like they thought they would be. As far as the graphics anyway. Yes they said there are definitely subtle differences that reveal both console's step up in that department, but it's nothing that would leave your jaw on the floor. However other areas are where there are very noticeable differences, such as the loading times now (they're a fraction of what they once were).
They're also saying that in order to maximize both console's powers, one would need a 120 frames per second capable television, and those aren't cheap. Pretty much all of the "budget" 4K televisions (most under a thousand bucks I'd say) are only 60 frames per second. The gaming experts say that one would be missing out on a lot and not fully realizing their console's capability with a lesser TV set.
Again these are just things I read so I can't confirm or deny any of this.
I think Sony & Microsoft shouldn't have bothered with 120 fps. I game at 60 fps on my PC and it's more then enough. Not saying that 120 wouldn't look smooth, but from what I understand about these new consoles is that in order to get 120 fps the graphics quality/resolution has to go down  , stuff that, I'd rather 60 rock solid frames per second with the best quality graphics at 4k native resolution.
Maybe it was a done to inspire people to buy new expensive TV's?

Have you considered forgetting the new consoles & getting yourself a Xbox One X? The reason why I say that is because it comes with a 4k bluray player & as someone who owns one, the games & graphics are still damn fine if you ask me.
Also in the next few years as many people move to the newer systems, the second hand game market for the Xbox One X will only increase in size and also start going down in price  .

I felt the same as Nif at first. I was disappointed. The games were eeak and the graphics weren't amazing. But hey, fast loading times, right..
I even thought about selling it for 2x-3x the amount I spent. Got tons of offers too.
Of course I decided against it and stuck with it, but I also started thinking back. The ps4 launch sucked too. The games and the graphics "leap" but, look at how far along the ps4 has come.
My honest opinion... I think buying the ps5 first was dumb.. I think all the game developers waited because of covid and they weren't sure how sales were going to be. I can tell you this... These developers are scrambling around with their heads off now and there will be some awesome games coming out.
I also think it will take some time for these developers to truly harness and utilize the ps5s full power. Give it a year..
My plan.. rock the ps5 until a "pro" comes out, sell the ps5, and brag about said "pro"
Give it all time.. this is only the tip of the iceberg.

The Xbox One X has a 4k blu-ray player for real?

I stuck with the ps5 because the games are usually better. I also have a psvr so it only makes sense.

Yep, and apparently the Xbox One S does too. Don't forget about the media remote control you can get as well  .
Just a side note: There are videos on YT that compare the Xbox One X 4k player's audio and video quality compared to standalone 4K players.
