I wasn't sure what was happening when I read the description so I watched a video.

This is amazingly awesome.

Kess-tuss

Are you going to get other fist weapons as well like the demon fist and duel wield for true punchiness?

The plan is to use the Demon Fist for parrying, I'm not sure it's an actually viable weapon (if it's anything like the Ceastus it isn't).



It scales on int and faith so probably not great for this run. If you infuse the caestus with a heavy gem it gets an A in strength scaling so that might cut down the boss fights by one or two hits.

Hi, I'm the person you were talking about who doesn't really like Dark Souls 3! It just sprays bits of 1 at you at basically fanservice level, and doesn't really have it's own identity. What's more, it doesn't offer DS2 anything at all, bar a couple of vague item mentions and a few scattered giants, which just makes the callbacks feel even more hollow, yet it still somehow manages to screw up a lot of the more interesting ideas about DS2. And you say it has combat more like Bloodborne, but I found it was mostly the enemies who had it like that game, whereas I was still just playing as a slow-rear end Dark Souls character.

note: all my opinions are bad and wrong because DS2 is my favourite and also I played DS3 at sub-30 fps too, so my whole Dark Souls Experience is really bad.

I agree with everything you said, but I still prefer the gameplay of 3. I went back to scholar and it felt rough. Just like when I tried to go back to DS1 from DS2. I do wish they'd brought more quality of life stuff back though.

DS2 is the best Dark Souls, because it had the best punching.

Hard to argue with this. How could they not bring back the bonefist and vanquisher's seal?

If a new fist weapon appears in the dlc will you use it? Also will we be getting a death reel of sorts or is it not that interesting.

The first DLC is kind of meh. It's fine, certainly not bad, but the bosses would likely be an exercise in tedium for this run.

I'm hoping they bring back the bone fist or something cool like that for DLC2.

Well done, that additional commentary was good and informative.

So I know we aren't there yet, but after completing the DLC, ummm. Well. It might get a little tedious for a fist only character.
