Hello all, it's been a very long time since I've started a new topic but I thought, "Hey! I'm back so screw it, let's do this!". Today I'm going to be talking about a new game that released back on March 15th, so a whole five days ago for myself. Salt and Sanctuary was created by Ska Studios after being in production for three years or so and so far has only released on the PS4 (PC/XBOX players can rage here lol). It has plans to be released for PC as far as I know. Salt and Sanctuary is a 2D action roleplaying game that reminds me a great deal of the first Dark Souls game. The game has amazing 2D visuals that have all been hand drawn and is actually rather pleasant to look at even after 10 hours of gameplay or more. The game has a difficult learning curve that lovers of the Soul series will enjoy but at the same time people who haven't played those should still enjoy it. I will warn you now though, some of the bosses and sections can be rage inducing though, like that Kraeken Wyrm... Damn flame breath... The game allows you to build your own character before you start play, the character customization isn't too extensive but it's enough to let you feel like the character is actually yours. From here you're also guided to choose a class, much like in Dark Souls which will dictact what your starting gear and stats will be, although generally it only assigns you a few points in the skill tree. Once you've started the game it gives you a sort of tutorial with notes you find written in bottles which are similar to Dark Souls's floor markings that you could leave for other players. (A system which is also present in this game) The game offers you the choice to play, a hunter,, a cleric, a mage, a knight and a few others as a base class, from here you can meld your character into what you desire by leveling up and spending black pearls in the skill tree which are acquired one per level or rarely found in the world. The game uses Salt for leveling up which is gained from monster and boss kills or certain items much like Souls were in Dark Souls. Enemies reset each time you visit a Sanctuary which is were you must level up and is more or less identical to a bonfire albeit a few changes. I won't go too much into the game in this post but I will add one more thing. The game offers Co Op where a person with a second controller can drop in and out by visiting a certain NPC you assign to a sanctuary, this system is rather good, aside from the screen sharing but it's better than the screen actually being split in half and it forces you to remain together. This topic is now open for discussion, I hope to talk with many of you about the game and that we can all help each other in finishing it or just with information. P.S I have not completed the game myself but am a fair way through it, I guarantee I do not have all the information about this game so if anything in my topic post is wrong, simply inform me and I'll edit it.

I purchased Natural Doctrine for my PS4 without first watching a trailer or reading a review, one of my biggest mistakes, I loathe the game, it's extremely dull and boring.

Lately I've been playing a fair amount of Fallout 4, Just Cause 3 and my new game, Salt and Sanctuary

Recently purchased Dying Light around the start of this month, got a physical copy and thanks to distribution delays i wont be getting it til next month even though the came games out in 2 days.... Not too pleased with that.

Been getting back in Diablo 3 since I never made it past Act 1 before

Currently its pissing me off because its around 30 degrees all day but the humidity makes it feel more like 40, then it storms every afternoon for like an hour and instead of cooling it down it makes it even more humid, i feel like im living in a fuckin rainforest.

Generally I learn visually and with hands on approaches, learning by doing!

Ive got the psp 3000 and the vita, i use the 3000 for monster hunter still and tekken whenever im going somewhere

I went and saw Fury and it was pretty badass, felt really short though and it wasnt too in depth but I guess it was sort of just an action, kill everything and off you go sort of film

Far Cry 4, finished it but still playing it cuz its fun still. AC still, im avoiding finishing it by doing side stuff and im bout to pick up lords of the fallen again

Firstly, let me start out by saying I am a huge fan of the games, Assassin's creed was the third game I ever got for my ps3, I found it to be good but at the same time I wanted more, which number two delivered on. Throughout the games they've repeated many things(most of it good) and some things have only lasted for that one game, bomb making in Revelations for example. Now onto the game at hand, Assassin's Creed Unity...-sighs- I was so looking forward to this game, Black Flag was rather enjoyable, especially with it's ship battles but this new game, it delivers on a lot of the things I want in an Assassin's Creed game but in saying that, the glitches make it almost gamebreaking, I'll list my current glitches I've gotten so far, below. I'm on the PS4 for those who were wondering, I've heard the PC Issues are worse, anyway here goes: Random moments where I'll be surrounded by enemies and combat will suddenly cancel and won't reinitiate, leaving me the only option being to run because I cannot parry, attack or use any items, including medicine. I died many times from this and it's occured more than once. Issues where my pistol or Phantom Blades will fire straight through a targets head, hitting the wall behind him, doing zero damage and aggroing said enemy. Climbing issues where Arno will suddenly get stuck in a part of a roof or wall etc. NPC's walking into me or stunlocking me into walls or other places, forcing me to Fast Travel out or be stuck there indefinitely. Had this one happen today actually, multiple times. I kill all of my enemies and I mean kill, not that writhing in pain thing and all of their lower jaws will be moving as if they're talking still, yet they're dead. This one was rather disturbing. There are more but these are the only ones I've had that seem to repeat often... for now. Even with the glitches I still love this game but there is a lot more wrong with it also. The "New" Phantom Blade mini crossbow is not new at all, it's simply a reskin of Ezio's old bracer, the poison darts have become Berserk Blades and the Bullets are now Phantom Blades, this is not new, all they've done is slapped a new coat of paint on something old and labelled it new, not impressed ubisoft. There's more isses with gameplay wise but I won't go into that simply due to spoilers so please refrain from spoilers here but if you must, hide them in your post so people who haven't yet finished the game can still enjoy it. The final thing I will say here is, if you're on ps4 and would like to join my club for some co op games, the name of it is BloodandSteel, I lead it and I am on a lot of hours out of the day, just join it manually or I can add you to PSN if youd rather that, hope to get some people to play with for club competitions. Post your glitches and opinions! *No Spoilers*
