Playing through the start of the Undead Burgh place, it reminds me a bit of the Bloodborne city. Someone pushed a flaming barrel down some stairs which knocked me off the stairs but I hit a tiny ledge on the way down so i didn't die lol. Had to use a homeward bone though as I actually couldn't get back to anywhere else from my random ledge. On the bright side when I was getting up from being knocked down a skeleton sailed past me into the abyss I'd just missed. this owns

you could've dropped down further to get out iirc!

catacombs is definitely one of the most difficult areas on the first playthrough. i think it made me actually stop playing for a few months my first time. divine weapons really help if you can make them (not sure which blacksmith but i assume andre) because they kill skeletons even if the necromancer is alive.

I am not sure I have met that smith, I have only met the one near where you fight the bell gargoyle. I might go back to him and see if he sells titanite shards because maybe I could at least upgrade my mace then. I tried a different area previously called New Londo but there was a ghost there and I couldn't hurt it so I ran away. Despite how painful the catacombs are I have made progress and killed three necromancers so I might just keep grinding at it tomorrow.

yeah i think thats the one what can make divine weapons.

Is the catacombs the way to blighttown? This is where I am trying to go to

no, you get to blighttown through the depths, you can find the entrance to there past the capra demon (also can unlock a good shortcut back to firelink)

Is that the new Londo place? I killed some praying ghoul type creatures in there but then met some ghosts that didn't take physical damage and a lot of bloodstains about. Is there a third option? I will go investigating around the place until I find somewhere new where I have win endless battles of attrition against skeletons

nope that's new londo ruins, you shouldn't be going there for awhile or until your weapon is upgraded more than it probably is right now. if you haven't yet fought the capra demon, go back to where you met solaire near the bridge and try to open a closed door

congrats gamer. dark souls your first time is a great experience. i think most people have the same feeling about 2 as you do. i think it's a good game, but not a good dark souls game if that makes sense. highly recommend playing 3 now, and if you have access to a ps3 or ps4 definitely go for demon's souls and bloodborne.

tbh souls games really could use a pause button, and saves before bosses. and a map. just let people play the dang game! if you get frustrated with a game, it's a sign of poor design

so does insight affect basically anything that has that bright red aura? I thought I remember those church guys in front of the grand cathedral holding crosses with some kind of red cloud around them, but now its gone...

I think once you hit a certain threshold it starts spawning the red enemies
