So I Tried This New Souls-Like.. 

Knowing Asmongold he would get even more bored playing Ghost of Tsushima.

@Gunslinging713 holy shit the brainrot is insane. I didnt know it got this bad.

ghost of tsushima feels great the first 5 hours, then you realise you are going to do the exact same shit for the whole game. Boring ass openwold and soulless quests. im glad i tried it for free and not buying it

@Gunslinging713 Brother what are you on about?

​@@blasterseklaOn Go I saw so many people comparing it to Sekiro, game doesn't hold a candle to Sekiro. The combat is so boring.

Of course he's having a good time, he is paid to play the game

you talk about him like he’s a mutual friend irl

​@@chan6565Paid by whom?

@@cosmiqtoast1187 Asocial ppl like me tend to be like that with the friends that they'll never have ^^

To be an Italian game, is actually doing pretty good

You mean non-existent?

But for mass selling standards it simply is not. There are plenty of information out there to use and learn from. If they have the tech to build a game (obviously) they have the means and tech to really do it right and well. What we have seen, that is not this. This needs ALOT of work. But considering the "souls" style, and what we have seen from other "soulslikes" it is and will fall into the same pitfalls. I hope it doesn't but, if the game releases soon, then this will be meh. Sad really, was looking forward to this one, loved the art style. Really wish devs of "soulslikes" would do better research, not only on the genre, but on overall game feel. Witch ultimately comes before everything else.

Cool, but it's still shite.

As an Italian fella, I hate to say you are not 100% right. The fact that Italy doesn't have it's own industry in videogames is not an excuse to make a bad game, especially when you choose to release it in a world full of upcoming souls-like without waiting for the game to be polished. And also, they did blacklist all italian journalists who did highlight the problems in the demo, like a form of censorship, they didn't listen to criticisms, but held them down and tried to shut their articles down. Not cool, guys, not cool. They told us we would have been able to play as beta testers but the test happened like two months ago, and not a year ago as it should, so everything we (beta testers) suggested to adjust and fix is still present in the demo and will be in the final game. In other words, they've shown themselves as a not serious and trustworthy studio, who doesn't listen to criticisms and censores anything they don't like instead of taking their time to deliver the best product to the consumers. If I pay for something, I don't accept excuses, especially if you had plenty of time to fix everything.

@@steamdeck_guyjesus dude every single comment you make is wrong 🤦🏽‍♂️

I squirm when streamers skip drops. It's like, bro, how are you not even curious enough to push one button that could alter your entire playthrough, luck depending.

Don't worry it's a gamer thing

that's not autism.

Did it took you an Asmongold video to realize that most people playing those games are like that or you just realy realy want to relate so bad to people? Cause damn dude, I nEveR ReAlIzed ThAt oThEr peOPle also PlAyeD gAmES ThE wAy i DOooO. Yeah pal, you aint unique. Omg. shocker. 2024 is full of surprises.

Mate, I play Bloodborne on infinite NG+. I think I've cleared the cycle over 150 times. I still obsessively pick up every item even though my inventory is rejecting them. I use bullets just to pick up more so I don't have anything on the ground before I move on. Obviously this can become problematic as consuming the required number of items to satiate this proclivity is insane, so I do have to concede at times, especially in dungeons.

Agreed. Plus, speaking as a huge fan of the Soulsborne games, I don’t think EVERY souls like HAS to be super hard. As long as the world design and combat is engaging, it being easier than other games doesn’t bother me. A good example of this is Remnant. Everyone liked that game, I liked that game, and it was super easy. You could first try almost every boss.

The golden scarab is not easy 🤡 neither was the tree sentinel in the beginning area

@@thetrashcanman7537 tree sentinel is not even worth fighting

@@mahinkhan3708tree sentinel was my favorite boss ❤

@@stokes2923 my point is you can just skip it , you would not be missing any rewards

Compare it to blasphemous... What's better?

@@randybobandy9828 i think they are different games but blasphemous was more polished

@@randybobandy9828 i personally prefer 3D ARPGs with more customization. Blasphemous was also really nice too

don't forget to try out the newly added Crucibles, they're just boss-rush

Nobody asked lol

@@sallyspitsnobody asked you

@@amwazdraws6890 Thanks bro

​​​​@@sallyspitsWhy are you so invested to the point of commenting on all these comments yet here you are engaging negatively to every opinion on this. On a brand new account too. How are you involved with this game? Did you waste 3 years of your life working on a meh game? Or is it a disorder?

Dont worry abour him, he must be a troll or has issues ​@6ic6ic6ic

Agreed, I've played the demo on PC and PS5 and its fine, not perfect. If you are a fan of soulslikes then why would you not play this? I'll buy it, not sure which platform yet but I will support this studio. If this is their 1st attempt, they set their bar pretty high and they will only get better.

@Shimmy-yi3ik No man, fromsoft has no exclusive right creating a game like this. It even encourages competition to step up, just like Lies of Pi was an outstanding game. This is clearly a small studio doing it's best with what they have. Nobody forces you to play it or even pay for it, so go ahead and skip it :) But in case they will get bigger and better, guess who most likely will play their upcoming games when Tiktok is full of it, twitch and so on? You ;) as well as us. In case they manage to step up.

Isn't code Vien a pretty long game??

@@randybobandy9828 Not really, 26 hours for the main story and 61 if you want all achievements and all items. I recall the Darks Souls games taking me 85 hours the first time i played them and then 65 hours after that even doing all achievements.

It's a lot more free-form with the masks in this game. Masks just provide one big passive ability, and then for each mask, you equip up to 6 of any of your passive skills and 4 special attacks, as a loadout for that mask. Those passive skills and special attacks come from a "global" set, it's not exclusive per mask. Naturally you'll want to equip skills and attacks that complement what passive ability your mask does.

​@@FerdinandJosephFernandez The only real difference is in this game as you say its more free form. Being able to switch your loadouts on the fly while in Code Vein, you had to manually equip your skills each time you wanted to change Blood Codes and skills. The loadouts are a good idea as you can just make loadouts that have skills you like and actively switch between them without breaking the action so to speak.

Why did you cheat on your girl ?

Thanks

It's an incredibly repetitive grindy game

​@sallyspits I agree, I kinda gave up trying to '100%' the game, as most side camps are very repetitive. Some side quests and most main quests are fun, though.

I was bored really fast in that game

Nobody asked you

Same

Same lol, I loved the concept idea and tried a few days ago but gameplay felt "off" in a way that's hard to describe (like it's missing weight, I guess?) and quit after an hour.

​@@jayswrkd for me it felt very slaggy, slow and unresponsive. Ideas are there and really wanted to love it but this is a miss for me 100%.

Don't have the platform to try it out, but from what I saw the first time, and from what Asmon is playing, game looks buns. Great Idea, terrible, terrible execution. Game looks to be 2 years behind in development.

Not the worst thing to be considering some of the fights are brutal that the game bugging out and breaking their AI for a while is a mercy. Like a certain double challenge.

STALKER 2 i cannot wait for it, it reminds me of METRO and i loved that series

@@Copperscaled it does I haven’t played either of them i heard metro because it was similar to fallout IG but stalker 2 has my eyes open for that I haven’t played that series either but more interested into getting into it

You sound like a very "special" person

​@@sallyspits So do you judging from your other comments lol

This game reminds me more of Lies of P

It has nothing common with Thymesia, thymesia is very dynamic and responsive whereas this game feels like you are on ice and incredibly slow. Very different games

@@sallyspitswhats that mean?

I know you’re joking but for being a small mobile game studio I think this is actually pretty great for their first actual game. And the concept of the different mask/outfits changing your build and being able to change them in an instant during combat is a pretty cool idea. So they at least had something to add to the souls like genre instead of just straight up copying.

😂 good one

@@EchanteDante It is still a straight up copy of dark souls, with cheap graphics

Not bad if the price is right

@@chan6565how’s it a copy?

the games has alot of saturation in it's colors when compared to souls games (more greyed out), you'll probably want to adjust the display settings in game or on your PC if you're watching it.

i'm hoping they expand on the mask system abit more, the restriction on elements being only placable on specific positions in the line-loadout is pretty tough. mask swapping can be made faster so it's more rewarding to implement mid-battle. and as you said, the mob types need improvements (at the very least, give them more variety of weapons, not just make weapon held = mob tier, for the same mob type)

lame

I missed it too at first, it's not very clear you can go down there but i like it, reminds me of climbing down bridges in ds3, though for some it's probably a lot more obvious you can go there

boohoo let the man play the game without guiding. He's just trying it out, not trying to 100% it

You're laughing your ass off over this? really?

The weapons suck lol literally has the best colossal sword in the demo

@@TheAlex29494guiding? im literally on a RU-vid video? meaning i missed the live stream, its just a comment, think of it like a review after a test, assuming u take those

@@mralireza931when someone types “LMFAO” do you think that they are really doing that?

Tell me a single pre release demo that is drastically different from the final game. They are usually almost identical with slight tweaks.

@@randybobandy9828 game only needs slght tweaks

He likes to play with big things

overcompensating 🫣

that's actually one of the things i hate about these games, especially when they use tight corridors generously. it's not fun when you use a weapon that swings horizontally, you lose access to half your moveset. not a good thing.

and sparks coming out of the interaction like the character is made of metal

@@n1lknarf i could be wrong but i thought that happened when blocking barehanded in ER too? it's just a blocking VFX

btw look closely at the left arm used to parry, look at all the mask models. they ALL have the same gauntlet thing. maybe there's something to this thing, or maybe it's just the parry item for this game, i dunno. btw, the gem slot next to the 2 weapons is the gem imbued into the gauntlet, so if you're equipping a gem that you can't use, you won't be able to parry.

@@Copperscaled booiii dont even start even the AI is trash unless asmon is on easy peaky Baldy Sqeaky mode

Is code vein any good??

It's okay. I wish it had better co-op but all in all it was pretty neat.

so i only played it for a little bit but the parry is so weird, like normal parry reduces dmg, perfect parry seems to negate dmg, but unlike most other games i know parrying doesnt interupt the enemy or allows you to counter, so if the enemy does like a 3 hit combo attack you need to parry all 3 attacks in a row because it just keeps hitting you. Also the stagger is insane, every mosquito sting stuns you for half a second, so you get stunlocked very easy regardless of how much dmg you seem to take

Nowhere close to mortal shell, that game is a masterpiece

Reminded me, I have yet to play that, thanks.

Lmao masterpiece? If that's a masterpiece then every game ever made is a masterpiece. It's a decent souls like demo​@@AQI11A
