Eeeeee! I am so stoked for you!! :D well done!!


Also a very productive dark souls game session today!! We beat Ornstein and Smough with the Dark Souls Squad!

Then I beat Havel and Lautrec. Discovered two wonderful rings that now allow me to medium roll with black iron set on AND wield the great club which is a fantastic bashing weapon!

Also got stuck on a pig in a corridor for way too long. In fact all the deaths from doing Ornstein & Smough, Havel and Lautrec are less than the amount of deaths I had to this one pig in a corridor.

Pig in a corridor is my true nemesis.

What a great and wonderful game this is! :D

I still can't believe you kept at it and killed that pig. I think I died to him all of two times before I said gently caress it and ran past him

I usually use combustion or great combustion on the pig because there's no bouncing deflection.

I think you should poll the chat which way to go because now the game splinters in 4 different directions.

Its near the firelink shrine, specifically near the elevator shortcut to the undead parish. You have to do some "platforming" which sucks. I usually do it as soon as it opens up because you get a really useful ring. At least useful in the swamp.

I also never use the ring of favor and protection because I usually have 2 rings for a boss where you NEED to have one specific ring and then I use a ring to get another attunement slot. By the time I'm past that I forget about the RFAP.

Edit: the dark souls rings are rad and because I am a giant nerd I have a collection of them and wear them with necklaces. The first one I got was the Ring of Favor and Protection.

There were two lizard dudes right next to him! I really didn’t think I got him, I must have hit him with the very tip of my club, but he said “so that’s your game, eh?” and then disappeared and I got souls :( I’m so sorry :(

I’ve also lost a combined total of 400k souls tonight due to rushing and idiocy so I guess that makes up for it

They apply over the game installation, yes. If a game's installed to the internal it goes there, and vice-versa.

You'd think that, but apparently it can be region locked and it looks like Ubisoft accidentally put Turkish discs in the box so they don't match up with the UK version on the PS5 store and doesn't unlock the upgrade.

You can get the upgrade if you make a Turkish PSN account, but gently caress that. I don't care enough to do that, honestly I would have traded the same in by now if stores were actually open.

I cannot let these games think they have beaten me. If anything, I am the final boss of the game!!!

Good lord though, did I feel embarassed by how much I panicked and pressed the wrong buttons. Same thing happened with spear knight. I stopped playing smart with both of them and started to believe that they would get me and they did. I am very mental and psychosomatic in completing games. If I know I can do something then I will do it. If I have an inkling of doubt then I will fail over and over no matter what.

This is why Defiled Hotdog was easy (I had faced him earlier in another dungeon) whereas I am still remembering the fact I was carried completely for Amygdala and it is affecting my gameplay - plus I do not wish to be carried again on it and as such I am messing up constantly trying out these moves and dying. Best thing about the chalices is the lamp being so close to the boss :)


Hmmmm....hmmmm....hmmmaaaaahhh!

Dark souls is the perfect length. I’ve been replaying it on switch and your ‘build’ feels like it comes together so much quicker than 3. When I hosed up a quest in DS1 I get to think ‘oh well next round through’ in 3 I could barely keep up with the npcs. I lost track of seigmeyer shortly after meeting him and apparently he had a pretty prominent moment in 3 oops.

Though maybe I’m just more familiar with DS1 and more comfortable with rushing and doing what I want. 3 is intense.

Apparently the secret is to always be deleting all the after mission photos and poo poo it accumulates, even if you are not manually taking any mission photos. Scoop on the internet is that helps. That's not a real answer but I couldn't find one either so I ended up playing through on PC, never tried the DLC on ps4.

Thank you - unfortunately, that doesn't help much:( I did already delete the savefiles and whatever the game decided to save, but it's also cumbersome on the console. Oh well, I didn't actually have much hope that it was fixed much:/

Edit: I've also searched through the XCom subreddit, and apparently whatever problems there were with the game, they still are present even while playing on the PS5 - it shortens the loading times and smoothes the framerate, but the occasional crashes and not being able to trust the game with your savefile is still very much present. Well, Firaxis still launches the game on different platforms, maybe they'll patch one of the existing versions, too.

It was as the other goon said, my first souls game and didn't know any better. And the Tomb of giants was the first place I went because the only other location I could figure out how to get to was New Londo and you can't do anything there until you open the gates and that's pretty far into the game. I somehow missed the giant aqueduct that lead to the Undead Settlement.

Its funny but watching Vaadividya's content made my get it on PC to try it again, because i saw how interested and deep the story is and just the really cool and neat environments and weapons and armors and bosses to experience.

Even by Yhorm i didn't know about weapon arts so i stood there attacking him with the giant killing sword normally. i still beat him but siggy did not make it.

I think tomorrow I might try out AC Origins, I'm enjoying control, but even with headphones my ps4 is so loud, and its just kind of annoying in how maze like the facility is. I know that is part of the point but its less oh look how crazy and labyrinthine this place is and more where the gently caress do I go? The map says there's a door here but there isn't!!
