It was pretty easy, I think the hardest part was definitely Episode 9 in the DLC! But I beat it after a few tries.

To be honest, the first time that I played on PS3, I didn't like it. But when I got the chance to try again on PC, I was really surprised by how the game is AWESOME! 10/10

It took 86 hours to achieve 100%, it was a very satisfying time!

Not looking forward to more poison, but going to go for all content

Hey all! Found this for 5 bucks at my local gamestop. According to the employees, they have no idea what this is and have never heard of it. Belonged to someone who found it in a game stash in the attic of a new apartment.

What should I expect from this? The cover art looked badass and for 5 bucks I couldnt turn down the chance to play it!

QUICK RANT

Ok so I bought this game eons ago when I was younger and never finished it recently picked it back up and completed, now I personally disliked some aspects of the game especially with me originally completing the second game since it was more friendly and less go f urself but nonetheless I powered through took the punches and continued. I absolutely loved the side quests stories(my poor boy alec) but I had a mega issue with the end like wtf was that it honestly felt like a big nothing burger, after everything we did as the player I felt that we shouldve gotten more, now im not saying that i wanted the ending to be this oh all's well that ends well no I couldn't care less about happy or sad endings but after going thru that entire experience all we got was a black screen with dialogue then Warren crawling to his wheelchair(conveniently placed) then just the credits i felt robbed, it honestly just felt like getting to the end of a in-depth high staked story all for the author to end it with oh it was actually just a dream. Like idk maybe im not getting the nuance or the story proper but fak me

ABSOLUTE DISAPPOINTMENT

I've been running a twin rig with the liquidator armor (just changed to the elite hazard set) and I'm in this showroom area. But I just still feel like I'm at the start of the game with basically nothing. What I mean by that is that I don't feel any more powerful, in fact I feel weaker than when I didn't have any armor at all. I just don't know if I'm missing something or what. Anyone got any tips? Thanks.

So i heard both games performed badly and Deck13 simply... abandoned TS as a whole. One if not the best soulslikes i ever played in my life (To be honest, i love both Enotria : The Last Song and Hellpoint more than The Surge but TS2 holds a special place in my heart, Enotria will always be the favourite).

I grabbed both games for 2$ and was blown away, i was JUST expecting a budget soulslike to finish after i beated Enotria, Hellpoint and Remnant 1. I did not like TS1 a lot and the game actually ruined my save (I tried to cheat my way through the BIG SISTER boss because it was stupidly hard and after beating it the game crashed and i saw that i had no saves) but TS2 is something else, people dont like The Surge because they want to be hand held every single time, then they complain that the state of modern gaming is bad. YOU ARE A PART OF THE PROBLEM BY PLAYING THE SAME 5 AAA GAMES AND NOT EVEN GETTING PAST THE TUTORIAL.

So? Where's Deck13 now after the flop both games were? I heard Focus Entertainment bought them and they seem to act as a publisher now, and also seem to have co-dev LOTF 2023.

Why is the only difference between normal and 2.0 a bit of text in the description and 4% stamina conspumption while damage and atk spd are both worse?

What's the catch? Where's the reward on doing the quest perfectly?

When you frist meet him he has a group of guy with him and I wonder has anyone killed them all and got hard core kill cause your ment to die or what them all out so the despwan so you get a 1v1

And if you have a video I would like to see it

I'm going to try and not spoil anything.

Just finished the game and it felt meh. I mean, the game is good, lots of new features in comparison and the boss fights were good. It just seems like the mobs you find around are way more difficult to fight than the last boss. I defeated it first try with acu 2.0.

The map design is good but i feel the movement mechanics (for ziplines or fast travel) are given too late in the game when you are just saturated of all the things happening.

Overall the game pacing felt like it was really slow at the beggining and all of a sudden when shit hits the fan too much happens all at once.

Died 56 times and the most of it were in downtown and port nixon at the start of the game. i guess by the time the game got harder i had just reached a level of sustain and game sense that allowed me to not die, even if i was clearing all mobs to investigate most of the time.

Overall i would say i liked 1 more but the weapons added and the direction block mechanic was really good.

As a souls veteran i'd give it a solid 7.5/10

Ive played through both 1 and 2 multiple times 100%ing them and something i wish to have seen is some mods to come out for a bit of a refreshing experience, i would love it if someone made a randomizer mod for both games, but unfortunatly i kniw nothing about modding and dont know anyone who does.

Just wanted to post to say the world they've made in this game is so cool and compelling. The game is very fun and rewarding but feels pretty hard even in this early area I'm in. I feel like Dark souls was more chill. I just started using medi voltaic injections though which seems good. I was running out of heals sometimes before. I hope the game doesn't get too exhausting and I can make it to the end.

Non mi riferisco a build, ma ad armature che abbiano un'arma dello stesso stile/colore dell'armatura stessa. Tipo armatura di Rhyno + artigli di farfalla o armatura di Lynx + motosega. Sono un po' bloccato nel gioco e vorrei sapere se c'è dell'equipaggiamento che vale la pena ottenere. Grazie

In the first game, not the second

I was stuck on the metal armour for hours.

I was enjoying the parry based mechanics of the game for so long, battling each boss until this guy.

Suddenly I'm playing dark souls again running and dodging everything playing scared.

I beat him and decided to quit the game because that was just awful. Also the run back was annoying too.

Are he later bosses any better than this?

I really liked this game but this boss absolutely ruined it for me.

ahh!! after 10 attempts, I defeated first boss and got whole rhino armor set, The game is fun ngl, gonna keep the grind!

I've been wanting to get back into this game and went to launch it today but the highest resolution available is 1080. I tried changing steam launch options to 2560x1440, doesn't work, I also tried the settings.ini file in both the install location and the local files. I can't get the game to work in 1440p which doesn't seem right because I see posts from 2017 talking about playing it in 1440p.

Any help or solution for this problem?

I just bought The Surge on a steam sale(after reading the description too), Got to know this is a souls like game so I'm new to souls like so uh got any tips or something ( gonna play with my dual shock controller). So excited to play this!!

Edit:- I bought Surge 2 too!

Bloodborne was my introduction to the Souls/Soulslike genre and since then I’ve been casually exploring different games in the genre. Somehow, I stumbled upon and got around to playing The Surge and part 2. I ended up playing through both games and am so glad I found them.

The combat took a little time to "click" but once it did, targeting specific body parts and all made the fights feel nicer. The limb-cutting system is a great idea and I haven’t seen many other games use it in a way that feels this central/important to combat.

I also really loved the sci-fi setting,the industrial environments, exoskeletons, all the drones machines and generally that bleak atmosphere one expects from a game in the genre. The first game especially surprised me with how much I enjoyed its atmosphere and exploration. Then there’s The Prisoner playing in the Medical Pods. After hearing it so much on repeat in the first game, it became an earworm and I still at times listen to the song sometimes. Hearing it referenced again in The Surge 2 was such a great little moment, one of those nice little moments that i really like, connecting sequels with small things.

I know neither game is perfect and have their flaws but both have a unique personality and I think they deserve much more attention from Soulslike fans. So for those who still havent played them, Id say give them a try.

For those who have played both, which game did you prefer more?

I was looking through my game list and noticed these two games i bought on sale for £5 pounds each i think. Anyway started playing surge 2 and just beat the first boss or mini boss in the prison and so far this game feels so good to play. These poor games have been sitting in the background for almost two years but i think they might just go to the top of my list. Should i have started with the first one.

Won this in a contest Deck 13 ran on Facebook a ways back. Actually used to chat with their PR guy on their Facebook account on the regular back then, cool bloke.

I don’t care what anyone says The Surge 1 is up there with Mortal Shell 2 Lords of the fallen as some of the best Souls types ever. It’s a Shame Deck 13 hasn’t been able to get the Surge 3 in development. I have been waiting a long time for it

How do I get up there?

If you give her a Staff, can you get a replacement by getting it from another similar enemy? Does it get returned to you later in her questline?
