So, was Artorias a Darkwraith?
>>
>>121988478

No. What makes you think that?
>>
>>121988531

Well, a two-timing Darkwraith like Kirk. Since his abysswalking is called a "covenant with the abyss."
>>
>>121988157
>FBGAGS.COM
>>
>>121988594
Kirk's only in it for his Fair Lady, bless him.

Artorias doesn't have a covenant with the abyss in the same sense that the actual game covenants are. He's just highly fucked up with dark since succumbing to the Abyss after spending too much time in it, earning himself the title. Or something like that, it's been a while. Please correct me if I'm wrong.
>>
>>121988726

That's pretty much it, I think. The "Beasts of the Abyss" probably refers to Kaathe. Like Gwyndolin (Darkmoon/Princess Covenant), Kaathe could offer different kinds of covenants.

That's already bordering on dated.

>>121989193

Valley of Defilement is cool as fuck, despite being a total pain in the ass. One of the most memorable areas. You have to be smart and cautious as hell. The only thing is that I wish they just disabled rolling, instead of making your character do some "i dunno lol" animation when trying to roll in the swamp.

>>121989291
Kind of, not really. I'd need to collect my thoughts to go into more detail though so I'll leave it to you to explore the games and learn as much as you can.
>>
>>121989291
fire is more or less just one of the many forms of light in the lore, alongside magic and lightning. It's more a 'light R gud. dark R bad' scenario.
>>
>>121989291
>This lore seems less-developed than other games but it leaves some to the imagination. s'cool.

Yeah, it's true. Demon's is a well thought out Lore game. Then that game was a success, so From decided to make a legally distinct sequel that they could have on other consoles than PS3. The lore took a back seat and is a bit rushed.
>>
>>121989291
>So is fire good and darkness bad?
Fire is the illusion of life outside of hollowing
Dark is the nature of man (pygmy based life)

It's basically the distinction between a comforting but ultimately untrue lie and struggling against ones nature to achieve something great
VS
Accepting what you are and what it means for your place in the world

Neither is inherently good or bad but your own attitude towards life is usually what ends up deciding which you go with
>>
>>121989291
Eh kinda, kinda not. There is a lot hidden beneath the surface. But you have to be really interested to go full lore fag

I love DeS and DS, but never got DS2 for obvious reasons. Thinking of getting it on black friday or Christmas sale if it goes below 60% off.

>>121991270
SOTFS is an improved version of dark souls 2 that comes with all the DLC's
graphics are enhanced, new enemy placement and a few new items
that's it
it's still a shit game compared to the other souls games
it might be worth a try though

Magic is pretty easy but you miss out all the rolling fun
>>
>>121998647
Grab a shield and a sword or other weapon you like and keep your weight low enough to do fast rolls
Hit things until they die without getting hit
After that I'd suggest a completely different run through with magic or something due to the difference in style and longevity it provides

Basically use magic or miracles if you are shit and want to cheese it. Otherwise melee is the only option.

miracles are not so shitty, most of them are balanced. for example you can use only one wrath of gods at very close range, now look at black magic/crystal soul spear that you can use multiple times at range

>Haven't played the first one
Dark Souls 2 was made and marketed to appeal to people who haven't played the original. Its an OK game if you have literally no frame of reference, but compared to the original, and even under unbiased scrutiny, the game fails on multiple levels.

There are just a lot of really bad design choices and assets that were kept in SOLELY so the game could be marketed as a hard game. But the problem is that loading up small areas with huge, tanky, high damage dealing and super fast poorly animated fucks, while hard, is just tedious bullshit. The original Dark Souls was hard in some places, but there were very few times where it felt tedious.

What I think makes a lot of people hate Dark Souls 2 is that there is a great game in there, but it was soiled by just absolutely atrocious development.
>>
>>122003686
>too many strong enemies
Unless you are doing a filthy magic user build (in which case kill yourself for whining in the first place), powerstanced katans or powerstanced greatswords will 1 shot the enemies there.
Hell even a 2 handed greatsword will stagger and 2 hit the knights.

And you only need to kill the first room, 2 in the second room and then its a free sprting down to the last room where you just wait for the magician to come to you, bait an attack from the big smelter dude and run to the fog.

It can be annoying but its like 5 mins at most, even less if you decide to skip more enemies

Also how about not doing optional coop areas solo and bitching about them being hard to solo?
>>
>>122003802

Yes. AL, Duke's and Izalith at least seem to be active.
>>
>>122004363
are there actually people still buying and playing the game or are they just people similar to me doing SL 70 invasions
>>
>>122003802
Forest, Anal Rodeo, the 3 last areas (dukes, izalith, and tomb), and oolacile are still good for mid-high level pvp. Burg and Church still good for low level pvp.

>>122004340

But they're right. DeS is still the best Souls game. It captures the atmosphere of what Souls game are supposed to be perfectly. DaS improved on some things but it couldn't reach the same heights when it came to that. And it's the most important aspect of Souls games.
DaS2 on the other hand was total shit. Enough said.

Are you guys laughing at me for wearing Northwarder Robes with Iron King Crown and Red Iron Twinblade?
>>
>>122008363
DaS1-tier netcode.
Shitty invasion system.
Werewolves everywhere instead of giant armoured humanoids. Not "worse" per se, but not better either. Most of them are designed the same way and they follow the same pattern of 2-3 fast swings, then a slow and deadly one. Also the vast majority of them has instakill grab attacks.
Muh variety and muh PvP balance.
Although it is better than DeS. DeS has pretty much nothing going for it with the exception of lore and worldbuilding, which is good, but not good enough to make the game itself not shit. DeS bosses are really bad with the exception of 3 good ones and it has probably the shittiest PvP in the series. Bashing DeS is not really fair though, it was a brave experiment and the first game in the series.

Shit bosses

More useless shit stats and adaptability

Most, if not all, of the heavy armor looks retarded due to it either looking flimsy or like plastic.

The world makes no sense and nothing is connected.

There is no story. Here is the story summed up.
>you have a curse
>narrator tells you you have no idea why you are going to drangleic and you have no idea why you will be participating in the events of this game
>you walk into cabin old ladies laugh at you and say you are going to die a lot and lose all your souls (nice bamco "le ebin hard" reddit marketing there)
>you walk outside and just start killing shit, for no reason
>you get to a majula
>herald to tells you to seek the king and fight many hardships (again for no reason, you are just left to assume that there may be a cure to whatever curse you have)
>you venture off to fight the worlds 4 greatest souls because your path to the castle is blocked....by a small pile of rubble
And it sort of goes like that for about 4 hours of you killing anything in site because you have a curse. You have no idea what this curse is, if there is a cure, you were just told to kill shit and it would be hard. The only people who would even have a remote understanding of what this story is are players of the first game, and even then you go from being "story" to "deep lore"

The npcs are all trash. They never do anything. They live solely to service you and sit around in majula (that stupid bitch still hasn't talked to her fucking dad after sitting next to him for like ever). While in Dark Souls the npcs were more fleshed out. You never felt like the center of the universe because your needs came second to the needs of the NPCs. They went out and ventured and had fleshed out stories of their own.

Bringing back the 4 great ones, 4kids, and manus was just utter trash. There was no point for them to be in the game. (cont)

Aldia. He's talked about all the goddamn time. Yet you never fight him. He has no story significance. He isn't even that great of a fight in Softs. He's just there so reddit fags can jerk off to their deep lore.

Bonfire teleportation

Shit enemy designs

Shit enemies with overly tuned tracking or able to reset their animations on a whim

And many many many other shit that is more or less arguing semantics and I'd rather not get into it.


DaS2 is a GOOD game, but it doesn't stand up to it's predecessors in my and many others, opinion. It's still good, by all means and is better than most other trash that is made these days. Like fallout 4 for example.
>>
>>122017451
You're lucky to get a staff at all IMO. If it was up to me you'd only be able to cast magic with bitch wands like in harry potter. Yesterday I dueled this dark magic fucktard in a DESIGNATED dueling zone and he 1 shotted me with some hex that took like half a second to cast. Where is the fun in that? Magic users should be gassed

>you walk outside and just start killing shit, for no reason

Because DaS1 has plenty of good boss fights, right? Like arty and o&s and manus and sanctuary guardian and, whoopsie, by the looks if it I ran out of the good bosses to count since the rest are complete pushovers and hardly any better than DaS2 bosses.

I never mentioned this at all. And I didn't say it was badly handled I was stating that many of the points you brought up are similar if not the same as DaS.
Killing shit for no reason? Really? This game is about killing things.

There is a path off to the right (or left?) near the shrine of winter and that path goes around the shrine and in fact you can get to the other end once you go through the shrine. That path is blocked off by a small pile of rubble.
>>
>>122018465
I'm not a retard, I was just being generous.
Besides, I do like sanctuary guardian, at least he is relatively fast compared to the rest of the shit in the game.
My point still stands, though.

There is literally a path in the shaded woods that leads to the castle but it's blocked by a flexile sentry mob and a pile of chest high rubble.

All I ask is that they give you a way to pvp without making you jump through hoops (SM, arena that takes items, no full eye orbs, grinding arena to get creos, whatever stupid invasion system that bloodborne had, etc).

He's just like you, so him returning from the grave is one of the most logical things in DaS2.
But I willing to admit that they kinda fucked it up by introducing 2 pursuers in the throne room. You can sorta draw parallels between him and Darklurker, who is also a creature of dark able to split into two identical copies, but that's a flimsy ass explanation.

The ability to choose animations would be great. Sometimes weapons have shitty animations, and having some choice would be nice.

Example, Scimitar:
>can choose a spin double attack or strong swing for hard attack
>>
>>122005278
>menus
>using multiple consumables at once
>ability to see what boss weapons can be made without needing the prereqs already in your inventory

>>
>>122025238

And the screen to choose the animations is on the main menu. It gives you a preview of the animations and it tells you what kind of damage it does.
>>
>>122025238
>>122025364
Pls no
>>
>>122025184
Well it is.

The animation is floaty and has no weight at all but just running around feels smooth as fuck.

Great weapons get stuck with shitty animations. Animations are actually MORE important than anything.

He must be dual wielding. Dual wielding vs playing with a shield is like playing two different games. I had to use terrain, kiting and positioning to my advantage to preserve my rectum.

Like that one pit in Harvest valley with like 6 sickle wielding monsters. I stood no chance until I figured out I have to spread them out and lure them up a ramp. Lots of z axis kiting in this game.

No, I mean, in DaS2 you could see what boss weapons could be made with what soul, without needing to have +10 daggers / +10 swords / +10 axes and stuff in your inventory. Made everything WAY simpler IMO -- you didn't need to keep an army of +10 trash weps in your inventory on the off chance that some boss weapon in the future might require them

I can't really call this lazily designed. It was an interesting idea (to have the boss hidden in a swarm of near identical enemies but piss weak) just not particularly well balanced, in part because the Souls combat system is not really optimized well for dealing with multiple enemies.

Which is unfortunately a running theme in DaS2 boss design, instead of thinking of challenging move sets just throw scenarios that the game's controls and camera don't handle well at the player. It wouldn't be so bad if they didn't do it constantly. DeS got away with Maneaters because it was more or less a unique encounter. DaS gets away with it when they copypasta Maneaters into the Gargoyles for similar reasons, same with O&S.

>>
Anyone using X360CE? Do you get a lot of input lag? Sometimes my rolls don't even go through it drives me nuts.
>>
>>122033587
Maneaters got away with it because it was interesting

DaS got away with it because both areas where you fight the boss in were extremely large and open and camera controls are piss easy and there was no pitfalls. I bet you are one of those fags who locks on.

A better comparison would be duel dragon riders since a dragon rider is basically off camera for most of the fight, or congregation since there are a lot of enemies in a very tight space.

I have more slabs than chunks right now. If there is something that really bothers me in DS2 is how easy it is to get them.

because the game wasnt built in such a way to allow for that kind of character without turning him into an invader, which also kills the point of him, not to mention invaders are not custom models but npc players.

Would it be viable to use gravelord sword dance / gravelord greatsword dance against bosses early in DaS1? I feel like I could probably kill the gargoyles with it but probably not quelaag. She probably has too much HP even if I were to hit with every single one. I wanna see if it's possible to get through the game just with those 2 miracles, perhaps buffing them with power within would make it possible.

To be fair, I only came down on him hard because he and his summons immediately came charging. Most of the other people I invaded stood around while I dropped items for them, or died to enemies after I trapped/cornered them.

Maybe you should git gud and use area appropriate equipment for your low level invasions instead of relying on a crutch that removes any practical chance that you'll lose to anyone but another twink.

Well the problem is that I enchanted it when the guy was talking about DS1, is it the same for DS2? I mean I'm just a standard sorcerer so I will be getting my Int to 50(thats where diminishing comes in right?) and keep my dex and strength stat low, so was enchanted the right way to go?

>>122076687
nono, enchanted is fine, especially with the defense-damage formula gutting split damage. im just saying that an enchanted catalyst would be a BAD idea, even if you could do it. and split damage aside,.you already have magic damage, better gave phys for those who resist it.

Ladders and the spiral staircase seperating the 2nd and 3rd floors

Which works out better for a build that uses weapon buffs? Presumably magic on a weapon that already had some magic damage to begin with?

(Assuming you don't want to aim for more physical damage on the weapon to deal with high magic resist anyway.)
>>
>>122077082
>>122077115
Okay then we are good, kind of pitiful the dagger still seems to do shit damage even when buffed with GMW but it is a dagger I suppose, I should just use it to finish enemies off quickly if they get close
>>
>>122077023
The main thing that made DaS 1 and DeS so good was the area design (and this is the main way in which DaS improved over DeS.) I think that plays a lot more into the disappointment some people feel with DaS 2 than people normally attribute to it.

>>122077246
the worst part about the instant warping in DS2 was how obviously the levels were designed around that. Like how you can't get back up from Brightstone Cove or Black Gulch without it while DS1 made sure you can go back the same way you came in (expect in the case of some boss rooms).

I know they're bringing instant warping back for DS3 but let's hope they get around that problem with less bonfires (like one per area) and interconnected levels.
>>
>>122077575
The number of places where you're impeded by waist high walls or drops in 2 is obscene.

>>122077287
if you want to use any buff that does damage, it’s better to do so on a weapon that already has that type of damage, so magic. or at least the numbers will add up to more. because of split damage, i cant tell for sure which would be best
the problem is that the smaller the partial physical or elemental damage, the bigger percentage of it is mitigated. so a weapon that does 50 mag 50 ltn 50 dark 50 fire will deal a lot less than a weapon that does 200 in any one of those, assuming the enemy has the same elemental defenses across the board (phys mitigation works a bit differently, but the same goes for split damage there).
>>122077506
maybe, do you need chunks for that? if yes you probably messed up a bit. the best staves upgrade with twinkling any way. just make sure to keep a magic stone or two
>>122077575
there are a few cases in ds2 where the level would cleverly turn in on itsself allowing for some nice shortcut only to have a bonfire at the other side of the shortcut, rendering it obsolete
>>
>>122077951
>do you need chunks for that?
default staff is upgraded via regular titanite path, so yeah I used my chunks
>>
>>122077630
It's both an inconvenience and a nonproblem at the same time.

Like that bonfire just before Belfry Sol, cut off from Iron Keep with a waist high wall. You'd assume that it was supposed to be a challenge in "you can't proceed unless you go through this next area" way but you can just warp back to the previous bonfire (that's like 10 meters away) so what's even the point, might as well just have a few stairs to it.
>>
>>122078152
>so what's even the point
Makes mad warrior farming easier, if I had to go a step further when I was farming him every time I probably would have blown my brains out.
>>
>>122078152
>Like that bonfire just before Belfry Sol, cut off from Iron Keep with a waist high wall.

This is one of the ones I have the least amount of trouble with, since it has a route back onto the main level at least. Though as you say, the effect of having it there is completely ruined by the bonfire warping.

I think they'd have done better to make only certain bonfires actually able to warp to and from.

In any case two loading screens to level up is worse than waist high walls. It's like they want to make you carry around souls just by making leveling really fucking annoying which is not how that should work.
>>
>>122078228
The bonfire makes sense since it's just before a popular pvp area but the waist high wall doesn't.

>I think they'd have done better to make only certain bonfires actually able to warp to and from.
I think this was a great way to go for it in DS1 since it had the convenience of getting fast to a place on the other side of the map but you still had to do a bit walking and know the place.

There are some areas in DS2 I completely forget and remember only on NG+ because I simply have no reason to ever go back there.

>In any case two loading screens to level up is worse than waist high walls
I agree with this as well. It was this way in DeS but DS1 improved on it so why go back.
>>
>>122078973
Well I shouldnt have to farm for chunks if most of the staffs are upgraded with twinkling. Besides you never told me which ones I should be working towards. I just upgraded the default one because it's the only staff I had

Gwyn is obviously Zeus. The origin story of the world is a mix of the Titanomachy (with dragons instead of titans) and Prometheus myths.

Nothing of value really, If you have SotFs then you get the DLC key which is pretty useful but you can just sprint to it.

You either ignore the salamanders, or snipe them with ranged shit, you don't try to melee fight them, they are literally the hardest enemy in the entire series to 1v1 melee

After stable 60fps you can't go back.

If we're talking about legitimately proven differences between men and women, some of the following have been objectively shown
>Men: +STR, +DEX, +END
>Women: +pain tolerance (I guess this would translate to +VIT)
>Men: better ability to multitask
>Women: better ability to focus down and concentrate
>Women: better ability to keep calm under pressure (when forced to do so)
the above 2 are why the Air Force actually prefers female fighter pilots (aside from being smaller, so they fit into the cockpits easier) -- they're much less likely to get cocky or distracted and do something stupid
I guess this nets a + INT

Saying stuff like "Men/Women are more naturally charismatic" is largely a cultural factor, not a biological one, because what defines "charisma" is how likely others are to listen to you, which is an inherently social phenomenon

It really wasn't as egregious in DeS though, since the only checkpoints you had were at natural breakpoints after beating a boss where you might be considering a different world next.if you went back to level up in the middle of a level you had to start the whole thing over anyway.

For being slow, easy to dodge and supposedly easy to parry, I find it easy to own people with the Red Iron Twinblade.

Basically if they fuck up and I hit them with a two-handed R2 their health drops to a sliver and they are easy pickings. Hit them with an R1 and they lose 1/3 - 1/2

So I returned to DaS and did a couple of runs of that game.

Seriously, how do you guys manage to NOT overlevel zones naturally? Everytime I make a run, I always find myself overleveling zones by 2-5 levels in the early game and 4-8 levels later in the game even without farming (following pic related as a basis).

The only times where I stay in the level range is if I start the game with a low level class, ignore optional areas (like Darkroot Basin at low levels or Ceaseless Discharge right after Quelaag), don't use any soul item (which is pretty stupid imo), spend a ton of souls on upgrading armor with minimal benefits and actively try to not go back to a bonfire when I have a ton of souls for levels and know there's no bonfire ahead.

>2.37 million

The sales and budget wouldn't put them at AAA level games, rather B or A level or something.

your statement is wrong in its premises, BoC isn't a boss
>>
>>122100861
All players, nevertheless, are going to mainly stick to co-operative and invading covenants - blue/red/whatever. Other covenants are doomed to be half-assed or not working at all and will soon be abandoned, just as usual.
>>
>>122100750
>What could possibly compel you to think they'd do that?
Bloodborne, their most recent game, has a covenant system that was, well, lets say that it was "sub-optimal".
>>122100803
That's not always the case.
Also some weapons have pretty damn high requirements, like most heavy str weapons. Unless you wanna be always 2handing your weapon, it's better to level up str and use a pine resin, if you REALLY want to buff.
Also powerstancing.

Also bellkeepers have like the best covenant rewards in the game. Not free titanite, I'm talking bout dem shorts.

They reuse everything.
Budget is spent mostly for hookers, blow and travel expenses to eastern european shitholes to take photos of architecture.

The point is that I keep seeing Souls games referred to as "AAA". But they're not. They are middle-ground games with what looks like modest budgets. I wish more games were like this. When you try to get 10 million or more sales you have to pander to retards who never play games.

I love how it was a dedicated spot for ganking you know. Like you wanna gank and not wait 10 million years? Forest!
>>
>>122100206
Having so many pointless covenants is a waste of time anyways, might as well have only three.
>>
>>122102049

I personally liked the against the odds feel of the bell and rat invasions in 2 but yeah the forest is a guaranteed pvp spot. Every time I pass through there on a new run someone invades me. Every single time.
>>
>>122101308
i just want a gravelord covenant that works.

also covenant-exclusive items and a drawback to abandoning/switching covenants
>>
>>122101058
dark souls 2 was closer to AAA, but demon and dark souls 1 were definitely not. rather niche titles

ATT is just measuring your ability to memorize spells, though. Just look at DeS, where the prompt is literally "memorize spell."

I don't follow the lore too much but why is everything bigger than it should be between darkroot garden/oolacile?
When you fight artorias the arena is not that big and both sif and artorias' sword and grave are much much smaller.

the objective of des and das was never selling 1 billion copies, this is why there are no gay and black characters, or le strong independent womyn or other minorities to atrract fans, like ME and other big meme franchises have.

i am very worried because i didnt liked much bb, and ds3 seem to be a copy of it. i'm not hyped so if ds3 sucks i wont be so disappointed

Eh, pleb.

He's not bashing the game, just the extras on the collector's which in his opinion are not worth the rumored 130ish usd.

ah, typical peakuck speech. This is not elder scrolls mate.
You are probably one of those who love those hideous HUD mods.


this will probably blow your mind, but there are few areas where ps3 version is superior to peakuck version you are so proud of. Shadowing and shadow filtering for one. I also noticed some nasty shadow bias issues in pc version.

Why do people wag their dicks over STR vs DEX builds and weapons?

The bonus you get from having like 50 DEX isn't all that worth it

I have 30 STR and 27 DEX and can use almost everything. Giant hammers suck ass anyways.
>>
>>122104507
what game are we talking about? i assume ds2?

>The bonus you get from having like 50 DEX isn't all that worth it
yeah, i stopped at 40. the gain from 40 to 50 are a joke.

This makes me really sad. It's all just too bad... too bad for such a good game.
>>
>>122105564
Well at least, nobody likes 4fags, and outside of /dsg/ too. DaS2 is already good for this one reason - having literally no connection to this piece of turd, despite a shitton of references to the main subjects from the first game.
>>
>>122105484
If you get hit by a greathammer you're retarded in every sense.

If you fail to take advantage of the long recovery time, you're slow.

Don't think so. They said in interviews that, in DaS3, the player will hunt down Lords of Cinder, so that guy is one of them. Hell, even the player goes into Lord of Cinder mode when using an Ember.

>>122106810
so all the bosses in DaS3 are confirmed for big armored dudes with big swords since he only gave parts of his soul to his knights, and also Seath. Since Ciaran is already there, Gough, Ornstein and Artorias already are undoubtedly going to appear as bosses.

>>122104469

Not that guy but you're wrong on those accounts, unless you don't know how to tweak DSFix or use SweetFX.

I've always played DaS Ps3, but the PC version is better in every way save for a few fps bugs. PS3 pvp is also more consistent in what you can do my experience.
>>
>>122107826
Equip a faster weapon.
Be more agressive.
Use running/rolling attacks.
>>
>>122098613
Wasn't that guide made before the patch that increased soul drops?

In any case what you do is spend your souls on equipment upgrades which give you better mileage than levels anyway.
