What shields looks best with Alva Armor?

Is there anyone here on ps3 for dark souls 1? Do you have megamuled saves? is it possible to to merge saves and put one muled character while keeping the ones you got? I just need the saints trophy and knights honor to get the plat and i just realized that its totally doable for me to knock out the miracles trophy in one cycle but idk if i can bring myself to playthrough ng++
If I cant merge a muled character into my saves i would really appreciate it if some one with muled saves would come and drop either the boss souls needed for knights honor, or just straight up drop the weapons i need. Im too much of a lazy bastard to collect that fat list of weapons legitimately. please sir, would some one help an anon out, or at least answer the above questions? THANKS

reposting fromt last thread and adding that i decided to finally plat dark souls as a time sink until dark souls 3. got over half them in the last week alone.

>>135793664
Japanese console version of the game going gold is different from the international pc version going gold. The intervening month is port QA and troubleshooting, compatibility testing, localization QC in about a dozen different languages simultaneously and so on.

Localization tends to be a bottleneck because the jp->english translation has to be done, checked, implemented and finalized before the other language translations can begin, since german, french, spanish, etc all base their translation on the english translation instead of the japanese. This keeps changes made for the sake of localization consistent across versions.

There's over 200 weapons.
Probably as many again armor pieces
and yet as many again items, both consumable and key.

All of that needs to be translated, and then all of that text needs to be proofread numerous times in script form before it;s hooked into the game, and then proofread countless times again. Every line of dialogue needs subititles, every ingame menu option and prompt needs a translation.

It's a huge job, and jp->eng translations are not easy.

>>135797024
you're in the most graphically polished area of the game, wait until later when horrendous pop in, terrible texture quality and an all around poor sense of aesthetics kicks in.

Also most people are probably thinking of vanilla DaS2 which was even worse than Scholar.

Jeez the Dark Souls 3 trailers have been abysmal to boring. They singlehandedly killed any of my excitement or interest in the game. But then I started taking look at webms and screenshots and finally catching snippets of raw gameplay. Now I'm back to fucking fanboy levels of hype. Kinda sucks though there's no awesome trailer, I'm oddly fond of them.

>>135797646
Similar idea except I'll probably have beaten then game by the time most day1 players are still in the settlement, so I'll go ahead and do everything, then start a new character and speedrun through for those delicious lategame weapons and gear to twink with.

I think I'll invade as a pure pyromancer named after the pyro trainer and wearing his gear, so that when they meet him and talk to him, they'll recognize the name and attack him instead of sending him to firelink.

It's back to turning into a wrinkly person in DaS3, only you get a lot bonier to the point where you look like your skin is just plain missing.

You only start to physically hollow once you accept Yoel's dark gift.

Yes afaik.

>>135798683
Yes, but hollowing has other effects. We don't know the full extent so far, but we do know that there's an early weapon that deals more damage to you the more hollowed you are. There may be other effects too.

>>135798683
>Can you be hollow -and- in cinder form at the same time

I think you're misunderstanding.

Here in DaS2 they're LITERAL ZOMBIES. They're "dead" in the ground and they raise when you get close to them. They also fucking grab and bite you for some reason.

In DaS1 they were just normal dudes who turned into beef jerky like you said. They don't act like zombies.

The "Curse' status effect mentions explicitly that it's the curse of the undead, so hollowing is definitely going to have a major penalty that's just not clear yet.

My fingers are crossed that humanity will return as the dark version of embers that you can use to restore the HP bonus and online stuff while hollowed.

Hey so, think about this.

You can play online even and co op slash pvp. You can lay in your bed and get that last armor set on a beautiful OLED screen. Fuck yes.

The worst part about dying to a Souls boss isn't losing your souls and it isn't frustration from getting spanked.

It's having to run from the god damned bonfire to the boss each time, wasting time and telling the grunt enemies to fuck off.

This is a good looking sky.

Anyway I'll stop playing this now. I just finished DS1 and got all the achievements today, so I decided to check out DS2 a bit since I already had bought it. I'm going to wait for DS3 though, as I take months to finish a game like this. Took me 3 months to complete DS1.

I can see why it's disliked though. The atmosphere just isn't as good. The graphics, while I'm sure I didn't see them at their worst, aren't a huge step up from DS1 (which actually looks better IMO thanks to better lighting, for one, and architecture).

I liked the gameplay, still. It still has that Souls feel to it. I liked the music better than DS1 too from what I heard. Was it the same composer?

Heide's is definitely one of the better looking areas of the game. It's an outlier though.

DaS2 is frustrating because there are little hints of greatness that are buried under all the shitty design decisions and last minute re-frankensteining that happened to the game as a result of the fucked up production cycle. It really could've been good.

Lots of the areas are great, the DLCs in particular, but the world completely lacks cohesion and the story makes no sense due to how the parts of the game were put together in a rush.

This seems to happen to all games. It's a shame really. Even DS1 was affected from what I saw, the last areas after Anor Londo are plain unfinished.

I hope DS3 won't be severely affected by schedules. Did Bloodborne had issues with cut/ufinished content as well?

In a perfect world all games would be completed to their full potential...

It's a million times worse than normal in DaS2 though. A lot of the areas post DaS were unfinished, true, but at least the areas fit together in the way they were planned from the beginning. DaS2's areas got completely swapped around and mashed together in ways that are completely nonsensical half the time

Bloodborne is definitely the most complete Souls game in terms of areas and world design, but it definitely had time constraints because the covenant system is almost non-existent, like it was built from scratch in a rush the week before release.

Yeah,

>This seems to happen to all games to a varying degree.

Fixed that.

Seeing some videos of the early DS2 builds made me extremely sad already.

>>135801942
Witcher 3 was also a vacuous mass of marketing and image design with no substance to back it. Its price declined sharply because there was nothing to maintain its value after the press circus left it behind for the next editorial fad.

>>135801863
Bloodborne was mostly completed, the main game felt finished but the Chalice Dungeons felt tacked on like the spent too long on getting the procedure generation right and too little on art assets and enemies and dump all the unfinished stuff or stuff that don't fit the main game in it.

>>135801043

Whoever told you that has no idea what they're talking about. First playthrough took me 15 hours and I missed an entire mechanic, a few bosses, hidden Covenants, hidden items, etc etc. There are plenty of different builds and items available. I feel like I could easily sink another 15-20 hours into the game. I feel like I got my money's worth as I only spent 16.19$ on it. 17.99$ is still really decent.

Despite being 'complete,' it's also half the length of previous games and still has an extremely clear decline in quality in the final stretch of the game.

It's "complete" in the sense that they set out to make half a game and finished most of that half to a thorough and satisfactory degree. It has no areas that were blatantly unfinished or obviously redesigned in last-minute hackjobs, but just lacks content in general, which was the obvious compromise. Still, despite it's blatantly under-achieving scope makes the lack of quality of some areas (copypasted snekwoods, Rehash'gul, Nightmare of "we just stopped caring"sis).

For the length of the game abnd amount of things in it, I would've expected a healthy mix of solid gold and acceptable silver, but instead it's some gold, some silver, a lot of bronze and then a few piles of absolute shit as well.

It should have quality and quantity, for a souls game it had one of those.

>>135802645
No, it was a bit short

>>135802645
it was like 8 hours most of those being load times
doesnt help that the pvp was utter shit

It also lacked the shitty unfinished lategame areas that dragged Dark Souls down, and wasn't bogged down with reused boss fights either.

It was a perfectly condensed experience, especially if you were going for all of the endings as well as completing the main chalice dungeons and the DLC.

PvP was pretty ass, though.

You have a Q8300?

That's not great. What's your GPU?

>>135802870
my biggest problem with Bloodborne in terms of what is was lacking was: playstyle variety and covenants. the DLC fixed the playstyle variety completely, but it made the covenants even worse. i disagree with you mostly on the areas, I thought for the most part they all maintained a standard of quality. the forest was the only part where I was like "wow, this is total shit"

Are there any particularly useful rings for this?

Overstating much.

Forbidden Woods, Byrgenwerth, Yahara'gul, Lecture Building, Nightmare of Mensis.
It's a gauntlet of trash areas one after another leading up from the halfway point to the end of the game. The only redeeming parts of the 2nd half of bloodborne are the optional areas, but the critical path is absolute garbage

>>135803485
Nightmare Frontier was pretty dogshit too.
And the first part of the DLC did the DaS1 "let's just reskin an existing area and block off some paths" thing again, which is still lazy even if you write the story around it.

Bellowing dragoncrest for damage, lingering dragoncrest if you're buffing.

Some of the main game was sacrificed for the Chalice Dungeons. That's to be taken into account.

anyone want a fc in sotfs?

Subtle.

no pls

>>135803657
I don't think so, I mean it really did add a ton. It made Arcane and Bloodtinge viable, and it added a bunch more variety to Strength and Skill. I'm not saying it gave it the game more variety than Dark Souls, but I went from feeling extremely let down at the core game to extremely satisfied after the DLC additions.

>>135803671
>Forbidden Woods, Byrgenwerth, Yahara'gul, Lecture Building, Nightmare of Mensis.

If you're implying any of these compare with Lost Izalith you're dumb. Nightmare of Mensis especially has some of the best level design in the entire game. Exploring the entire thing and still having the game loop you back via a perfectly-placed shortcut is amazing.

>>135803917
>hurr I'll just discount legit content in my calculations because I said so

Not my fault if you're saying the game is short because you ignore big parts of the game.

>>135803868
What does that have to do with Skyrim?

What is the most viable PvP weapon that does high damage in a single hit in DaS1?

Claymore? I ask because my fights have been turning into backstab fishing, which pisses me off but I want to be able to do the most damage I can in a single hit before they spam Divine Blessing.

Crabs are amazing, how could you not want more crabs. I hope we get crab claws as a weapon.
