Speaking of Demon's Souls and the series in general :
Anyone else feel like they missed the journey to Boletaria and wanted a little more fleshed out "Journey to the Nexus"?

I'm talking about being able to return to the Tutorial and having it be like a full-fledged World 0 of Demon's, except without an Archdemon in the end?

It would be really cool to be able to return to the Tutorial (or World 0 as I like to call it) and after completing 1-2 or something, be able to continue to 0-2 and 0-3)

Dark Souls 1 kind of also felt very centralized to the very core of Lordran, but due to the focus of the game it made sense.

Dark Souls 2 had a feeling of actually traveling through a country, but on the flipside, the actual areas in Dark Souls 2 suffered at the expense of the transitional areas, and there was a lack of spatial awareness from the skyboxes.

Dark Souls 3 managed to capture a real sense of travel AND a sense of spatial awareness, which I think is really underappreciated. You get a real feeling of travel BUT the areas are also fully fledged and developed, it feels like a proper journey and an adventure, but the actual areas in the game don't suffer as a result.

What do you guys think about this?

Welp, initial testing looks good. Running R2 tracking isn't even that bad as long as you use it correctly and know the distance on it, sure I don't have a running R1 but that's often parry bait anyways. Worth it for the insanity that is the R2.

Poise doesn't work that way in DaS3 man, I wish it did, especially with pike class weapons since their running R1 is complete garbage (running R2 actually isn't that bad though especially since it's unparriable, but you have to be real careful about how you use it or you'll get rekt).

Using the LKLS mainly for the insane R2 leo pokes, with offhand crow quills because I can potentially 2H them for their amazing moveset to switch things up but also because they're a super high damage thrusting sword (I think the highest while sharp?), it's a bit shorter than the estoc but that doesn't matter that much since it's for people who get in close or to combo with the R2.

The R2 is insane and tracks incredibly well though, I'm still testing how useful it is in invasions but for big team fights like this in aldrich SL130, it seems good, takes some getting used to (it's not about spamming running R1's like other spears, it's about spacing so you can land counterthrust R2's that have the longest reach in the game). Still in the process of making webms from this invasion, I've got 1 more to show the effectiveness of the offhand thrusting sword against parry kings, leading to me killing the host.

And finally, this showing the effectiveness of the build against parry fishers (which always winds up happening against me when using spears unfortunately. pretty much every single time people are getting poked to death they get mad and pull out the parry tool).

Feels good. Interesting too, how he tried to parry the R2 and failed, makes me wonder about how difficult that move might be to parry just because of the reach on it, I know you usually have to be within a certain distance to the attacker to successfully parry, idk if it messes with that or not. That's definitely the type of behavior that deserves the point down imo, though.

It hurts sometimes but killing a host gives such a good feeling. Ds3 has to be my favorite for invading. Pointing down and clapping has never felt so good.
>>
Can somebody tell me if I'm right or wrong?

I recently noticed that in DS3, when you use an attack that drains more stamina than you have left, the attack goes out at full speed anyways.
Wasn't it so that in previous games, you'd attack more slowly if you didn't have enough stamina left for the attack?

A friend is telling me I'm wrong and that I'm retarded.

Also side-question: What's the exact damage reduction you get when you use a weapon skill without enough FP left for it?

Stick to duels until you git gud. If you honestly don't enjoy invading in this game it's because you're bad at the game and/or are doing it wrong.

I'm successfully doing meta aldrich invasions with a long spear so it's probably because you're bad, though. Sorry not sorry.
>>
>>160432815
Same. It has a kind of sadomasochist feel. There's no thrill winning invasions in other games because they're trivial, but when you do win and spin clap over their body in front of phantoms it feels amazing

I like getting summoned as a blue and running around casting warmth at the invader. Since people are pretty hostile toward grapes, sometimes being a grape means wearing another covenant's colors for maximum wildcard.
>>
>>160431410

Also I'm pretty sure the running L1 of the quills has HA, doesn't it? Like, independent of poise you can't smack people out of it, except maybe with an ultra weapon but even then idk?

If so then you might be right for a use for the LKLS poise buff, but honestly I was just using it as a dual wield weapon to supplement the LKLS's leo R2 strategy and also being able to potentially swap to 2H'ing it (way better than 2H'ing an estoc). I'll have to work with the running L1's more, especially with the LKLS running R1 being absolute garbage. Interesting.

Yeah I've been invading a lot too. It's fucking miserable, even winning doesn't really feel that good to me right now. It's such a slog to chew through 15 estus plus their phantoms. I guess my last few invasions have been particularly tedious as well with people rolling around and summoning phantoms repeatedly.

I've never felt like this from invading and I've been doing this since DeS. They've just made it ridiculously unfair for the invader and it's really easy to get extra phantoms to help.

>>160432815
>>160433343

The fact that it's so difficult especially against ganks, and that especially when you're just starting out you die a lot (and even when you git gud you probably die a lot), it makes winning feel that much better.

I mean isn't that why we play souls games in the first place? Like the bosses being so hard you die like 10 or 20 times and get super frustrated and you finally win and that release of all that tension is like a dry orgasm, right? Invasions are the same way, except you can do them forever and they're always different unlike boss fights. Never know wtf is going to happen, even though you get better are recognizing patterns and how to counter various situations.

Ganks really depend on the players' skill level. I'd rather fight 3 scrubs than 1 player who knows what he's doing.

>Wasn't it so that in previous games, you'd attack more slowly if you didn't have enough stamina left for the attack?

No, but if you go to negative stamina, your stamina recharges more slowly to the point where you can attack or roll again.

Also, I think that attacks from almost zero stamina don't do as much damage but don't quote me on that.

>>160431654
>Why?
Dark Souls 3 is a great game, but replaying the game is the exact same experience every single time since you can't vary the order of tackling the content.

You could theoretically say that it doesn't affect much, but every world in Demon's Souls for example has essentially 5 different "difficulty modes" depending on which order you tackle them in, and this isn't even factoring in the World Tendency mechanic which actually changes the levels itself.

Dark Souls 1 has 4 directions to which you can go to after midgame (although 1 of them is kind of a stump, there's only one boss there) and then you've got the DLC.

Dark Souls 2 gives you 4 directions to go in the beginning, then you hit the linear mid-endgame but at that point you can also 3 DLCs aimed at high-level characters open which you can do in different orders depending on how you feel like.

Dark Souls 3 doesn't really offer any choice in the maingame except for the optional areas (2 of which are good, 1 is kinda shite) and the DLC. When DLC 2 arrives, there's probably more incentive to play, since you can decide to tackle either DLC1 or DLC2 or the optional base game areas, so there's 3 forks.

Despite people saying that DS3 is shit tho', I love the game, just saying that the lack of variety on playthroughs in the main thing I'm disliking in it.

DS3 estus and invasion system sucks. Too many favors for ganks. Even cosplay "pvp" works better in ganks. BB high speed, high damage mambo jambo against ganks is real thrill.

Got in a car accident, resulting some minor car body damage, but almost two months later that fraudulent cunt is suing me for 2.500 eurodollars injury award.
And while my insurance would cover the damage, they're trying to refute the entire thing in court, which - thanks to the extensive bureaucracy - will take several months and probably several court appearances.
Luckily, I also have legal costs insurance, but it's still annoying as fuck and upsets me.

>No, but if you go to negative stamina, your stamina recharges more slowly to the point where you can attack or roll again.

Also, if you're sprinting and your stamina reaches 0, you won't be able to sprint until its full again. However if you stop running and let it recharge before reaching 0, you can start sprinting again at any point.

>but when you happen upon a group of gankers who are also competent players there's really not much you can do.

That's just how it goes, you win some you lose some. Just gotta either know when to crystal out or just fight anyways and take it as a challenge even if you only have like a 5% chance of winning, not caring if you lose because of course you don't actually lose anything as an invader. I'm just in it for the fun.

That said I normally do either low-middle level invasions where I almost never run into seeds or meta level aldrich invasions which are usually more like team battles where people are dying and invading/being summoned in left and right with an ever changing flow of battle and fireballs being thrown everywhere.

Invasions on the whole are insanely fun, an unique experience you can't get in any other game, so the few times I run into some bullshit like a guy who summons 3 phantoms AND red soapstone phantoms AND seeds, I just leave, no big deal.

Also if you watch there are plenty of streamers that do "gank spanks" regularly, fuck you have people like iSkys who do win streaks up to like 50+ invasion wins IN A ROW at around SL70-80 +8. There are multiple people who do this sort of stuff too, and these are just the people who actually stream it, not even including all of the people who put shit up on youtube and further still all of the people who don't record their shit and just play the game (i.e. most people).

I mean, I say git gud half jokingly but in all honesty people just need to legitimately git gud at the game and stop crying so much, because if you're actually losing all the time you're probably just bad in one way or another.

It's technically recommended to wait until you've cleared Lothric Castle (especially since one of the bosses of the DLC is the hardest boss in DS3) so if you haven't cleared DS3 before, I'd wait until that.

>>160434501

Difficulty is probably a wrong word to use in my opinion, but I'd say that if the Souls games weren't challenging, they wouldn't be fun since there would be no point in using the depth of the combat system if you game didn't provide enough challenge for it. For example, just today I had to defuse the Hell that is DS1 Catacombs Bonewheel skeleton room without using a shield by baiting the skeletons to come at me one at a time, then use the environment to cockblock them and attack them. It was thrilling because the game was providing a challenge that I couldn't just get through by just R1 mashing, or even if I could, I'd probably have to be willing to sink in a lot more retries.

But at the same time challenge presented was fair, I was able to utilize the game mechanics to it's full potential, only I had not prepared in advance, which formed a part of the challenge for me.

If you don't enjoy invasions don't do them. Nobody's forcing you to do them unless you're farming pale tongues or something.

Also your typical duelfag quality build might not work well in invasions. You need an extremely damaging weapon to be able to take out phantoms before they can chug.

3's invasions are different.
Whereas in 1 you have to hold back and impose self-restrictions like not doing more than 2 backstabs in a row to not stomp them and duels are where all the tryhard players flock to, in 3 duels are the more casual fights where anything goes while invasions are the place not to hold back

Well yeah, but I'm talking in like a potential current gen remake where the area could be redone with more interconnections like DaS1's Asylum and the challenge adjusted accordingly.

Demons are edgy in most media. Dark Souls is no exception.

So how do I actually punish chugging in DS3?

It feels to me like no matter what I do, even if I stick directly to the hosts ass and am prepared to hit that sprint attack right as he does something, he gets the chug off and it usually tops them off. Of course I punish them right away, but then the whole thing is basically reset.

I mean it's not like they're beating me because of it, they just run out of estus eventually, but it's still really fucking annoying to play against a person who will chug 12 times before finally dying.

Is this just the meta or can you actually cut that sort of behavior? Considering buying 5000 lloyds talismans

The only ways I've consistently done so is throwing talismans with no lock-on, on wake-up or try to get a lucky crossbow/spell shot. Punishing estus is much more difficult compared to the other games and that includes DS1.

Why are you holding your lucerne upside down ?
>>
>>160435635

This.

When you get to a certain point of skill in DaS3 duels become really boring and easy, if you bring in any good weapon/build you can just stomp 95+% of players. You only have to focus on 1 guy and the surroundings are pretty inconsequential.

Invasions are the opposite, you've gotta be aware of your surroundings, of multiple opponents, of your healing vs. theirs, of the levels design, of the mobs (either to aid you or to avoid them if there's a seed or it's an enemy like a crab or crow that can hit invaders mistakenly even without seed), more invaders may show up at any time and who knows whether they'll betray you or not, might have to chase down the host if he's running away to try to summon more phantoms, etc. So on top of that with the odds stacked against you, you feel free to come up with the most OP builds and strategies you can think of to try to even the odds combined with your skill at the game.

There's just a lot more depth to it. Even if you lose it's thrilling and gets your heart pounding, which is the feeling I search for. When you win against all odds after a long invasion it's an amazing feeling you can't really find anywhere else, it's rare. Ultimately the feeling you get from doing invasions is the real reward, the adrenaline rush I guess you'd say.

The only time I've ever done this was years ago, the very first time I got invaded in Dark Souls 1, as I played it before Demon's.

It happened right after reaching André and spooked me so hard I alt + F4'd the game.

I've never quit from an invasion since and always try to have fair duels, or let my coop partner fight first.

Mirdan hammer was used with the hammer side facing the armor in Demon's, but with using the beak is equally correct and works great with the Leo Ring.

>>
>>160440057
I think being able to use seeds with phantoms is alright because it makes things more fun. You shouldn't be able to see red summon signs when invaded though because you can abuse that to get embered phantoms if they are your friends.

It's moveset shite in both DS1 and DS2.
Just one move repeated over and over in DS1, it looks garbage. In Demon's Souls and DS3 the moveset looks and feels more fluid.

Yeah, it has nothing over the Hunter's Axe from BB, but as far as the Souls series is concerned, it's the best in DS3.

We all know summoning phantoms is Souls' built-in ''Very Easy'' mode.

I cannot fathom how anyone can derive any sort of satisfaction from beating a boss with phantoms. Co-op'ing with friends on subsequent playthroughs to have some fun; sure, but doing it on your first playthrough is basically just conceding.

Some areas in Dark Souls 2 looked really damn good, too bad about them ending up being short or unimpressive on their own as actual levels.

That's why Dark Souls 3 is much better : there are fewer individual areas, but every single one feels better fleshed out than most of the Dark Souls 2 areas.

And the way the levels wrap around the Road of Sacrifices was really well done, I just wish there'd be more point to the first half of the Road or that the road would have one more fork, but it's pretty good as it is.

So much bullshit in the name of difficulty
>Enemies hit through walls, but your attacks bounce
>"difficulty" lies in throwing swarms of enemies at you
>Enemies aggro from absurd ranges so they can "ambush" you ( read: run up behind you from around the level) It's actually impressive how consistent the game is with this
>Even bosses aren't immune to B-team idea of "difficulty", half the bosses have adds or are more than 1 mob themselves.
>Using items is too slow. Theres a difference between making sure the player only heals when it's safe and being unable to heal at all because there's too many enemies and their attacks overlap on each others recovery.
>Player movement speed itself is slow. If you disengage an enemy and literally run some enemies will still be able to catch up and hit you forcing you to roll to avoid attacks

Dark Souls 2 isn't really much different than the other games, but there's a lot of stat-based difficulty, i.e early in the game you have less iframes on your rolls because you haven't leveled a certain stat and get hit with shit you otherwise wouldn't get hit by.

Some bosses like the Ruin Sentinels are pure torture on melee players because they can do totally bullshit attacks out of sync that cover the entire arena.

Overall I'd say that Dark Souls 2, bullshit aside, is an enjoyable game, but it feels a lot less responsive and has it's challenge based more around tactics than 3 does. In 3 you can mash roll and r1 through the entire game, while in 2 every attack you make is a big commitment that can fuck you over.

It's slow and clunky pile of shit.
It's not hard I beat the entire game with no summons but because it's so slow there are situation where you just get fucked because your character can't react fast enough.
Meanwhile in 3 every death is your fault because you have enough options and move at a reasonable speed that if you die it's because you didn't react properly rather than you weren't able to react at all.

Make up your mind. Thetime it takes them to 2 hand and WA (and get a worse moveset) is longer than it takes for you to lower shield then roll, so you either are up with no L1 buttom against a 2h SS which is very easy to beat or with a shield to punish a parry fisher, which is also easy to beat

Japs are by far the worst types of players to deal with.

I remember back in ds1 on PS3 being matched with them. They are fucking terrible, shitty people. They're at best average players, but they used the most cancerous try-hard tactics relentlessly. If it was broken and almost impossible to counter, you can believe a fucking jap was using it. TWoP + WoG, some wombo sorcery stun lock, hyper-cancer backstab fuckery, etc. They used all of it all the time. Zero dignity.

Everytime I beat one and taunted the faggots they would send me hate mail in Japanese. One time one of em typed in broken english calling me a loser gaijin, lmao. They're all faggots when it comes to gaming, all of them.

It's a bit discouraging to play like this. It's like they want fair duels, but 3v1. They won't ever start the level. I went afk the other day in that situation and it legit took like 20 minutes for the host to presumably pull the plug.

You'd think they would atleast come out of their comfort zone when they're 3v1 already

No, there's a difference between good and being a cunt.

Using a CCS, or GFS because it's a strong weapon is fine.

FROM has stacked every advantage against you and removed your tools to grief

Can confirm. You can get it from the dlc either by playing it through (recommended) or running straight for the drop.

I had the same dilemma a couple of days ago and just decided to go full 66 STR anyway because I want to use the yhorm machete. I personally think it doesn't live to it's full potential at sub-10+ upgrade but at 6+ it did slightly above average damage compared to longsword.

You don't miss out on anything by not playing DeS
Bloodborne though, no excuse
>>
>>160449685
As someone who experienced Demon's, it's not all what it's cracked up to be.
The good worlds are Boletarian Palace, Shrine of Storms and Latria. The Swamps are basically just a longer Blighttown and even with Latria the area blows it's load in the first level. The second level is atmospheric, but combat against the gargoyles is annoying.

It's a very good game, but honestly nothing to cry over. Haven't played Bloodborne yet so I can't say much about that.

It's great in Undead Burg in the Taurus Demon fight and in places where you have to haul ass fast like the Large Divine Ember room in the Catacombs.

>>
>>160450286
It's not a complicated concept; upgrading makes damage better, when you can't upgrade any more that's as good as the damage can get (barring buffs and scaling) meaning that's the full potential of the weapon, the best it can possibly be.
A weapon might be decent at +6 or +8, but that's not its /full/ potential, you're balancing that potential against connecting with newbies and their passworded babysitters.

Yes, but there's a difference between playing it and buying a dead console specifically to play it. If it released on PS4, it'd definitely be recommendable, but it's not "buy a dead console to play just that game"-tier.

>There's no game like Demon's Souls.
The boss fights are outdated in everything except atmosphere (which is still top notch, for some reason the blurry graphics actually enhance the atmosphere for some reason), the gameplay has improved really far mechanically past Demon's.

I wish they had stuck with some Demon's Souls design elements (such as basing the levels around 1 "start" point and 1 "finish" checkpoint but pretty much everything in Demon's Souls has been redone in the later titles.

You won't feel it as much as you would have then, but the same is true for dark souls 1, and the same is true for any fucking video game ever made.

But the fact is, demon's souls does things that no other game in the series does. It's more unforgiving, more demanding, more obtuse, more atmospheric. All those things that people conventionally ascribe to dark souls, demon's souls does better. Dark Souls is a lighthearted, casual game by comparison, and I don't mean casual as an insult, but it's just an easier, less stressful game to play.

Granted, probably a lot of people who started with dark souls 1 might not LIKE demon's souls, but a lot of the people who didn't like demon's souls when it came out DID like dark souls, because demon's souls is the tougher game.

It's short, it misses if your opponent moves an inch to either side, and the blocking frames just decide not to work sometimes.
It could be pretty good if they made it track worth a god damn and made the recovery on the WA and jump attacks shorter, but there's a reason you barely see anyone using it any more.

Running jumping attacks are weird. People always told me running R2 attacks track like garbage but with the long spear it always seems like it tracks surprisingly well. Which is important because the running R1 might as well not even exist it's so bad.

>Tell me why you like this game while ignoring the thing it arguably does the best in the entire series
Get off it dude.

I like the story, it's my favorite, and it doesn't try too hard with its subtlety in the lore.
The level designs are good, better than DaS2 and 3, and for the most part BB too. It's nice and compact, with secrets and shortcuts spread about in a reasonable fashion.
The movesets on for example axes shits on anything in DaS1.
Music is different, but fits the bosses.
The bosses are unique, it doesn't try to be hard for the sake of it. I like some gimmicks here and there.
Trying to figure out what character/world tendency did was a mystery in my entire playthrough, which kept me motivated.
The atmosphere, like i said, i find better than anything in the rest of the games. You're an idiot.

I could go on, but it will do no good.
>>
>>160453160
Some jump attacks have decent tracking
Valorheart has a totally unique jumping attack with a tiny-ass hitbox, zero tracking, and covers so much ground that you often just slide around your opponent and stab the ground five feet behind them
>>
>>160453281

It's just something I've come to expect (or at least be cautious of) in invasions now, it doesn't happen that often but it does happen, especially at meta level.

I feel like spears/pikes in particular have really good running R2 tracking, idk if that's actually a feature though or just placebo. But I mean, you clearly see that guy moving to the side, not just a straight line, and it still catches him. Feels good because LKLS is my weaponfu and the weapon I completed my first playthrough with entirely 2 handed, and after playing all of the other spears and thrusting swords in the game I've finally come full circle and started using it again, trying to figure out how to use it in invasions. Mainly the R2 is a fucking beast, I've been trying it with an offhand crow quills instead of a shield and it's been performing surprisingly well, even around parry fishers: >>160432531

No actually it really doesn't work that way. Enemies in demon's souls do a lot of fucking damage, on a first playthrough, you're likely to be in soul form a lot, and many encounters are set up in ways that trap you with multiple enemies so you can't easily get away and heal.

Even if you form an objective criteria to remove personal taste, different individuals are going to interpret and apply that criteria to games differently and simultaneously see the games themselves differently even if they don't take personal values into account.

OP here, you can't charged R2 when you're using it in the offhand (which I need to because the whole point of using the LKLS is the R2), but good to know. Charged R2 leo poke on the LKLS is probably around the same, maybe a bit more like 800 based on total AR naturally, but idk how I can into charged R2's. Like pic related, I usually just fire off an R2 ASAP when the timing is right, I generally feel like charging it would leave me open to getting BTFO. It's especially good with the offhand quills now because the R2 covers a LOT of ground and gets you in their with a long reach, so I R2 L2 L2 a lot (big step poke with the spear, which gets me in there to tap tap with the 395 AR quills)

Pic related, what I believe is a counter thrust with a non-charged LKLS R2. Not sure how much of a difference the host's armor made though.

Replacing the First Meme with Chaos would LITERALLY solve all of this shitty world's problems, why were we never allowed to side with demons and get a demon ending?

Demon's Souls was my favourite Souls game, until I played Bloodborne.

DaS1 has an amazing first half, but second half is trash, save for 1 or 2 areas. DaS2 is garbage all around, and while DaS3 is decent/good all-around it never really reaches the heights of Blooborne.

This. I thought when I first found the Chaos Servants that we'd be able to usurp the First Flame to kindle and strengthen the Second Flame with the ashes and embers of the first.

The Second Flame has lasted this long unkindled, from the time it was created prior to DaS1 all the way through however many ages to DaS3 where we see the last of the poor sodding demons dying off. There are what? 4 of them left that aren't the Smoldering Ghru? The Stray demon, the one you fight with Seigward, the demon beneath Wolnir, and the Old Demon King? I think we should have been able to side with the Demon king and bring him something like embers to help feed him and the Second Flame into power.

Between some mutations, the Abyss, whatever the fuck Vendrick was attempting, and the path of the dragon, I think I'd prefer a few mutations. Plus if there is a stone that can purge hollowing and souls can cure the darksign (which happens in DaS3) there should be a spell or magic of some kind that can reduce the mutations and the spread of it.

The biggest issue is is that the Flame of Chaos can not be controlled. That was what happened with the Daughters of Chaos, they couldn't control the Flame of Chaos and it went haywire. So I don't think we could prevent the mutations permanently, but we could reduce them with magic and souls to the ones we want or just keep reducing them to keep the mutations and potential Chaos Madness that demons seem to have that makes them very aggressive at bay.

The lore implications of Archdragon Peak are that they are symbolic for Miyazaki's hopes and dreams that would later be the start of the franchise the sequel to the demo and the Magnum Opus of his creative hopes "Dark Souls 1' in that the area itself at the end literally is a mimicry (and a continuation within the lore) of the Northern Undead Asylum -- the place where it all started.

You see, you get to Archdragon Peak by meditation, a key within Miyazaki's success in the realization of the Souls' world and the success within all original IPs of his directed (and undirected, heh) creations. You have to see past your world and past the Darksign (hence the moon there, not the Darksign sun) to see the truth in your being. The fact that all humans are dragons and all dragons used to be humans is why the first war within DS1 started. Gwyn was jealous of the dragons that they had saw past the phony propagations of their own ideals and beliefs and stuck down them from within their theoretical ivory tower from a creation of greed with developed arts of bolts.

The Nameless King itself is what ties this all together though. Being the first born of the Sun and the Linker Of The First Flame and also the Hardest Non-DLC Boss proves that this is indeed the implications which were meant to be derived from the subtle symbolism (which to my knowledge I'm the first to notice (irony)) have been derived from.

Please tell me what you think.

do something more like this, maybe use knight's/hunters so you can save on str/dex and add more to vig

bear in mind that with that much offensive investment you can also go 40/60 refined (60/60 while twohanding), which sometimes give you more damage

No this is why you learn the spacing of a super popular cancer weapon like teriyaki & wasabi so you can punish that dumb anime jump until they're dead, because they're probably just going to spam that shit over and over again trying to get it to land.

But they do attack anything not Demonic. Such as the demon beneath Wolnir. You can actually see it fighting both the Mimic in that area as well as the skeletons that spawn when you drop on the floor with it. So if we did kindle the Second Flame and the mutations did go wide spread, this aggressiveness would cause those that haven't had their mutations suppressed to assault anything non demonic such as livestock, burning food sources, and potentially those that have suppressed their mutations simply because they have suppressed what makes them demons..

I did this. Because it's quite frankly quite stupid not to.
But at the same time. Having levelled up only to effectively get one less ring slot, and never ever again being able to gather souls for anything. Be it just gathering consumables or collectibles like armour sets or whatever.

Killing a boss and receiving fucking nada for it, even if I was never going to level up, just really drains the satisfaction out of all it. The sense of character progression just plummets to a complete halt, and even takes a step backwards in a sense provided how you have one less ring to work with even.

I did a couple of more bosses, but I quickly lost my interest in the game after putting on the agape ring. Which is quite a shame really because I admit that I had become increasingly more engaged in the game until that point and was really into it.

Soul Memory is fucking retarded. SotF should have just patched that crap out entirely instead of introducing shitty rings like the agape ring.

Snakemen, like most beastmen, are black people.

I don't know what real life group skeletons would be comparable nor what distinguishing features of the Chinese could be compared to something in Dark Souls.

I mean, I guess in Dark Souls the Chinese are the Chinese/Japanese humans.

DS3 hud is better than Demon's HUD desu.
They're largely the same except DeS has that ugly ass eye icon and uglier and unnecessarily large effect icons.

All HUDs are still better looking than the default DaS1 one which looks like it's out of some indie game.

Link to the Baobao one? I haven't seen it.

I mean at least yukas was using the shitty scythe with offhand rapier in that video, meanwhile the only streamer I've ever come across has been the meme master himself Jund and both times I was just fucking around and/or drunk and both times he failed with his initial weapon, swapped to the carthus curved sword, and rekt my shit with it because lol crutch sword.

I pray for the day I run into him when I'm actually trying, the sad thing is I expect that'll never happen. I'll only ever run into him when I'm just fucking around with some meme shit and then he'll pull out the literal best most OP weapon in the game that he's also used for hundreds of hours and destroy my shit with it and I'll never see him again for another hundred or so hours.

>ENB will never EVER finish Demon's Souls or play Old Hunters on video
I'm sure shit is cursed.

He tried to stream BB and got audio issues. He starts streaming BB but instead of doing an actual playthrough he keeps doing permadeath speedrun playthroughs. Meanwhile Demon's is abandoned again.

Holy shit i just can't take it any more! For the last week I've been getting constant 1-12 second long freezes in pvp. Never have a single dropped frame anywhere else in the game, but as soon as i invade, get invaded, or even try to co-op, constant fucking freezes.

I just lost 12 invades in a row to spawning in, finding the player, instantly freezing for 8 seconds, and then watching my death animation.

What the actual fuck. What the shit did the patch do?

how much faith should i have for minimum investment to help me in invasions? was thinking 10 and hardswapping the priestess ring when I need to heal

OP here, SL130. I said it here: >>160432038

Basically the big payoff attack with the LKLS is the R2, both 1 handed or 2 handed (although 2H attacks are faster for pike class weapons). I've been wondering if I should switch between dual wielding and 2H'ing the long spear but honestly I think the best way to use it especially in invasions is to use the LKLS's R2 to score leo counterthrusts from afar while also getting you in close for L2 pokes with the offhand thrusting sword (quills or estoc or rapier, take your pick they all have pros and cons), because you cover a LOT of ground with the long spear R2. It also has great tracking, you can see a lot of that shown in those webms I posted.
