Distortion2 is a wizard at this game, he had speedruns of an hour and five minutes of all bosses without using the Tears of Denial glitch and under an hour with it last I checked Also the gimmick runs with weapons - like that one, or my favourite the Dragonslayer Axe one where he 3 shots Crystal Sage - are great

watching a total newbie play dark souls 1 really opened my eyes to how well made the game is. i was playing it right after beating demon souls a million times so i generally knew what to expect, this was someone who flatout hasn't played many 3d action games at all and she organically found her way to undead burg (after the graveyard skeletons told her to gently caress off), and the level design is just so good. you don't have a map, but thanks to generous amounts of landmarks and the way the architecture is built in general there are a lot of subtle visual cues that tell the player what's next, you can't really get lost. the tutorial boss demon and the minotaur are also a great basic skills check. there are dumb things like humanity and the way equip load worked that would be smoothed out later in the series but in terms of level and enemy design it's almost flawless. what a great game

Did they actually patch the PC Dark Souls or do I still need DSFix for it?

it'll run fine, but if you want 60 fps and any resolution besides 720p you still need dsfix

i've progressed to the random ornstein encounter at the end of the swamp/locust area i didn't really enjoy the first half of the dreg heap, but the second bonfire and beyond has been extremely good, probably on par with the best areas of base-game DS3. and the first boss is one of my new favorites

So I went to start my blind run of Ringed City today and my PS4 controller that worked perfectly fine yesterday is now refusing to pair with my PS4 even though its never been paired with anything else. I tried the reset switch on the controller, wont work. Dont have anyone nearby to borrow a controller from and none of the other solutions i find work (using a keyboard cant get you past PUSH PS BUTTON TO START and I never paired my phone with it). Am I just stuck buying another loving controller

streamed this last night feeling confident, thinking i was gonna clear up the last couple DLC bosses and move on to pvp but instead i just streamed myself getting owned for 3 hours by gael and maneater midir one thing i noticed is gael would be crazy easy if you just walked in there with a tower shield, he has some big attacks that'll break your guard or ignore it but they're easy to spot. when i realized just how good shields are for the fight I went 2h only. its so lame to think that someone could just block their way through an epic boss

bokealoke posted:any advice for darkeater midir? the way i beat is was by rolling a bunch of times for each attack instead of just once like you normally would for attacks . you can dodge most of them with 1 roll or sprinting even without the bloodring but its bad news if you get counter hit. i havent figured out his flame breath when hes flying .. i had to just eat it. thats what most of my estus were spent on. maybe you can block it with a black knight shield but i wasnt using shields on the character i did it with

kind of like how pointless it is to phantom for the DLC bosses. theyre hard enough when they behave consistently, now try fighting them while they lagwarp around and go apeshit trying to hit 3 targets!

i've done it. beat every boss. what a fantastic ending to ds3 and possibly the souls series, now its time do to pvp forever and nab all the covenant cheevos im missing. the icons that let you know where others are summoning/fighting at your level is really nice

final boss was awesome. very similar to Gehrman in that i instantly got the rhythm of the fight, and while it still took me three or four tries to finish him, all my attempts were extremely fun and had a really cool flow. i'm slightly bummed in the lack of any sort of cutscene, though. old hunters only had a quick 30-second thing, and it was far more substantial than what you get at the end of what is supposedly the last piece of content for the very last souls game. seems a little weird, but it doesn't take away from how good everything else was.

Theres two cutscenes, take the blood to the painter for one and save Lapp and find him again for the other.

Slowly working through the Ringed City DLC, beat the first boss and got to the city proper last night then took two steps past the bonfire and had every cell in my body replaced with arrows I love Dark Souls e: I do not love fighting two ringed knights at once, especially since I haven't found the shortcut to the inner wall bonfire/next bonfire yet Illuyankas fucked around with this message at 00:44 on Apr 13, 2017 |
