[OOC] The Spirits Within: Oakridge Chronicles

[FantasyChic]

While I am not a Dark Souls fan (though I do enjoy Bloodborne) I have picked up Stardew Valley and have been hypnotized by it's addicting nature. So likewise, I am preoccupied with trying to make enough gold to buy all the things and get married to my senpai Sebastian.

Oh, yeah, another note, I picked up Dark Soul 3 yesterday! I might be a little preoccupied for a moment! But I'll read the new posts today.

@Prisk

I got Dark Souls 3 as well! And I'm absolutely hating getting wrecked lol. I played and loved and Bloodborne, but the beginning of these games is such a damn test of temperament. It really pisses me off, but then makes me feel great all at the same time haha.

@icmasticc

Right?! Where are you at? I've gotten to the 'Undead Settlement', the area after that dog in armor-boss. I'm guessing it's still early in the game.

@Prisk

You're farther than me for sure. I only beat the very first, what I assume to be, tutorial boss. I'm on the Highwall of Lothric or High Lothric or whatever that first place is called. I beat Bloodborne a year ago so I'm just getting my ass kicked all over again while trying to regain the reflexes I had before lol. I was never great at Souls games, but I do persevere at least. It looks pretty amazing too, at least in my opinion, but I'm more of a fan of Bloodborne's aesthetics to be honest. I'll take dark fantasy/gothic style over medieval any day.

@icmasticc
Ah. That area is very similar to Yharnam, though. The Gothic spires and whatnot. I head the game runs on Bloodborne's 'engine', so it feels a lot like it. I've pretty much been preoccupied with Bloodborne since Christmas, so I was able to get into DS3 pretty fast now. The only thing that is funky is the equipment load and the slow rolls when you carry too much.

This is true, it does use the same engine which is why it looks so great. To be honest, I only even got it because of the fact that they sped up the movements and combat to the speed of Bloodborne. Even though I've played the others, I never liked the slow movement. I miss the sidestep dodge versus the rolls in DS3, but that's not a huge deal. I went mercenary so I'm able to play almost exactly how I played in Bloodborne except now I get to dual wield while forgoing the shield lol. The equipment load is also a gripe for me. I don't really care for it, but I understand why it has to be there.

[Mirandae]

No sidestepping bums me out to no end! That was so cool, and was a big aspect of the fast gameplay. The equipment load is mostly an annoyance for me because of FASHION SOULS. That was the best part of Bloodborne. The outfits were super glam and fabugorgeous. The armors that I've found so far are a little... meh, but I heard there's a ton of them in the game. So, I'm looking forward to that!

[FantasyChic]

I'm still here. Stardew Valley man...been soaking up my hours. Good news though, I managed to actually have a working farm going with a steady income. Now I just need my waifu Sebastian...

[Ozerath]

Who's next? Keep the show moving folks!

[FantasyChic]

@Ozerath Pretty sure we're waiting on our GMs to update things next, but I could be wrong.

[Redrum]

I don't think @Vox has posted yet?

EDIT: And if things are going a little slow it might be a good idea to push things along ourselves in our future posts. Maybe send out a PM to the GM's to discuss which direction to take if you end up lost, just for the sake of keeping things moving and fluid.

[Mirandae]

Yup, I'm up next. My plan was to post today after studying. @Rockette is working on one as well, and will push the Reactor mission.@Redrum is right. All of you can do minor pushes yourselves. If you're unsure about something, ask here or contact me or Rockette.

@Prisk
Once another person in my group posts, I probably will follow. I will also be adding a third character who I have already hinted at, if that's alright.

[Vox]

I shall have a post up by, at the latest, Sunday

[Mirandae]

Super motivated when the spambots freely roam around the forums! My plan was to post yesterday, but I was reluctantly called out to some manner of festivities at someone's house. Sorry about that. My post is up now, though. It had pushed things rather aggressively, so please excuse any oversights or mistakes!

[Rockette]

Not feeling up to my full strength at this current moment, but my post will be debuting later this evening when I'm home - not sure when I'll be getting off work but I won't let things stagnate. Till then!

[smarty0114]

Hey guys, working on a post for Eliza now :)

Edit: Posts are up :) Did a Charlie one as well. Also, Rockette how do you do those sick banners and can I trouble you to make one for my characters??

[icmasticc]

I'm aiming to have a post up Sunday evening.

[Rockette]

@smarty0114 - Hours of photoshop, and practice! What are the face claim/play by's of your characters? Unless you have specific pictures in mind that you would like me to use?
