Any Dark Souls fans?

I'm on my 5th/6th ish playthrough now of Dark Souls 3 and am tempted to go back and try out DS1/DS2. GOTY for me 100000%.

Any veterans with some advice would be nice.

And no I'm not buying a PS4 just for Bloodborne.

played trough DS2 many times. could only be bothered playing trough DS3 and DS1 one time.

I'd love to be one. Should be a game I love.

But it... isn't. Depresses me too as I can see how good the game is; but the clunky, heavy movement puts me off.

Watch Dogs 2. Dunno. Looks like more of the same.

First one was okay but should have been so much better. Especially considering the early game convention footage.

Seems like most people are polarised with DS2 from what I gather. They either love it or hate it.

Yeah I'm not sure Watch Dogs 2 will be any better from what I've seen. Which isn't much to be fair.

Watch Dogs 2 will, maybe, finally deliver what Watch Dogs promised.

Maybe.

I hope so because the idea is great.

It's getting really good reviews to be fair.

I thought the first one wasn't terrible. It wasn't good, but most of the hate towards it was due to people being lied to about the graphical downgrade.

I'm pretty bad at skyrim. need to sort out my gear/stats because I get executed all the time haha.

I bought a home in Whiterun, think it's called breeze home.... is there anyway to say, upgrade it? The place cost me 5k coin and it's empty ffs.

Speak to Proventus (the bald bloke who usually stands near the Jarl in Dragonsreach) and he will sell you various sets of furnishings for that particular house.

Does anyone here prefer an I7 6800K to an I7 6700K? Do you consider it to be a worthwhile difference?

For overclocking the 6800 has a clear advantage. Well that's if you're looking at multitasking.

Nope. For gaming, stick with the 6700k

The 6700k uses a newer chip architecture (Skylake). The 6800k Is Broadwell-E, the generation before.

The main difference (apart from architecture) is the 6800k is a six core chip with hyperthreading (12 threads) and the 6700k is a quad core with hyperthreading (8 threads).

For gaming, the 6700k is the clear winner. But for the money, you might want to drop down a level to the i5-6600k, which loses the hyperthreading, but has tons of overclock potential. PC Gamer (and Maximum PC) puts the 6600k as the current best pick CPU for gaming (price/performance). Save the money on the CPU and reinvest it into your GPU.

If you are going to be doing CPU intensive stuff, like video encoding, then the 6800k wins hands down. the 2 extra physical cores and 4 extra threads will make short work of whatever you are doing.

That's good that it's getting good reviews.

You're right. The first one was in now way bad. It was just in no way good either. About as average as you can get. Personally I found the story so not gripping or engaging I just couldn't be bothered to finish it.

Hang on, Watchdogs 2 is out on Xbox as well? And here I was thinking it was a PS exclusive!
