Bloodborne is pretty /lit/. I've heard many people on /lit/ mention it and I play it as well. Bloodborne goes to realms that other games, even at their highest points, have only grazed. It uses its medium as a way of conveying subjects that would be very difficult to express in other mediums. The game draws from many different sources including Bram Stoker and H.P. Lovecraft. Bloodborne is truly an artistic experience that a /lit/izen could enjoy. If you own a PS4 or are in the market for a console, then I suggest that you pick it up.

Dragon Age : Origins was very cliche and derivative (like most modern fantasy) but i thought the story was well executed and the characters were compelling.

No I remember playing the Bachelor.

It's been a while, but I just remember the game automatically kills you if you fail the goals and I can't remember the specifics but I just didn't know where to go at one point. And at night all the citizens try to kill you too and that was annoying.

Maybe I just naturally suck. I grew up playing only a few games as a child and after that went for a long time without playing any at all.

Remember, first of all, to sage these threads ; then you report them. After that, you join in as to insult, humiliate and harass. We need them to leave. In order to achieve this, we must make them feel not welcome, and ruin their chances at an actual discussion of whatever their mediocrity brought them to enjoy. They must lose all incentive to come here. This incentive is fundamentally that they find a platform which allows to partake in such discussion. This platform must be destroyed ; we will insult, humiliate and harass them until they can no longer find any pleasure in coming here. Fuck civility, we need the faggots gone.
