der juicen posted:Thanks yall. I've pretty much trained myself since my accident happened, once I figured ?I could play games. I've nearly beaten Deus Ex on second hardest difficulty, beaten asscred, dragon age 2, currently playing Madden and NHL, which use the left stick to move. Well, all those games do. I've gotten use to hitting LB fast enough in those games that need it. Go Voltron mode, have a friend put his hand on the left side, and have your hand on the right side of the controller. Then play the game

Will have Scraping Spear & Baby's Nail in backpack as an absolute last resort. Wish me luck goons. That'll never work. You need to go to the super shady stores... perhaps those on Main Street in Newark, New Jersey, mayhaps?

Jetpack Postman posted:Not sure, but I don't think it matters too much: Dexterity modifies roll speed in this game, so given enough Dex you'll be able to dodge effectively in any armor. One of the streamers with around 35 Endurance and 25 Dexterity was able to do cartwheels in Knight Armor. I know what my build is gonna be

Cyrai posted:I preordered the game from Best Buy, so I should have the limited edition, I think, but I'm pretty sure I didn't get it. What I have is just a regular PS3 game box. The picture on the cover is the one in the OP. All that's in it is the manual and the game, and I don't see some sort of code for the downloadable stuff. There's no mention of any special edition on the box anywhere. I'm guessing I didn't get it? The Collector's Edition comes in a metal tin, so no you didn't

Rough Lobster posted:First time playing any of the Souls games and I'm getting ruined. Hint to newbies. Don't start as a thief. Yeah, that might not be a bad idea. I'm playing as thief in my run now, but you definitely need to rely on dodge rolls and running around people to do lots of damage. Armor might be more forgiving in the beginning. The only thing that really sucks about the thief is your dagger is piss poor against any monster with lots of HP

Speedball posted:Important question: What's the pacing of this game like? Most of the videos I've seen make it look like combat requires a degree of precision, and it's rarely more than one-on-one encounters. There are definitely groups of enemies that can all attack you at once. And enemies are a LOT smarter too. They got a few new tricks you never saw in Demon's. This is speaking from being in the first area of the game currently.

TalonDemonKing posted:I know I'm missing like, a vital part of this game, but what exactly is humanity used for? I think I remeber soemthing about reversing hollowed status, and upgrading bonfires, but Upgrading Humanity seems to do nothing, and I can't upgrade bonfires cause I lack some sort of ritual. The more humanity you have, the better items and better item drop percentage you receive from monsters. Humanity is also used to upgrade your chosen Covenant

I hate GFWL as much as the next guy, but really, please suck it up and play the game. Dark Souls is one of the best games I have ever played, easily in my top 5. It was a perfect reminder of why I play video games to begin with. Pretty much this. If I can get my friends who don't have a PS3 to pick this up, it'll get even better
