    TIL that if you attack the torch hollow in No Mans Wharf and he doesn’t die, he’ll follow you around like a personal lantern.

    I hit him accidentally and now he's just following me around basically, keeping things lit.

    Poll: What do you think is the best FromSoftware game?

    Posted: 04 Dec 2019 10:05 AM PST

    Is it me or is this game kind of annoying?

    Posted: 04 Dec 2019 06:12 AM PST

    I've beaten Dark Souls 3 (and DLCS), Sekiro, and The Surge.

    I'm enjoying this game, but it's kind of annoying. Enemies piled on literally everywhere, crazy aggro ranges. Feel like I'm encountering a lot of stupid and "cheap" enemy placements.

    Also Deadman's Wharf is effing annoying.

    So far the bosses have been easy tho.

    Edit: Noman's Wharf. Somehow got through it without using a torch. Boss was easy.

    I Hate Gankers Right Now

    Posted: 04 Dec 2019 01:22 PM PST

    Normally I'm fine with them because they aren't terribly hard to beat, but the lower corridor in Belfry Luna is too small and I JUST WANT MY HIDDEN WEAPON FOR THE ACHIEVEMENT. The game is too dead to match with anyone else so all I can do is just throw myself at them and hope the host walks off the bridge while hiding behind his turtles.

    I can't go do anything else in the game because Soul Memory is a stupid mechanic and I'll never find anyone if I don't do this specifically now. Back to Halo it is.

    I have a question about boss armor.

    Posted: 04 Dec 2019 01:21 PM PST

    I killed maughlin at the start of my run for the tseldora set. Unfortunately I forgot he sells boss armor. Am I shit out of luck for getting velstadt's armor this run?

    My interpretation of the "perpetual cycle" story.

    Posted: 04 Dec 2019 09:11 AM PST

    So, a lot of people don't like the idea of perpetual cycles, but I never really saw what was going on as just straight up reincarnation.

    My theory started from events in Dark Souls 1, where it seemed like Solaire was trying to link the fire himself, and he may very well have succeeded. To me, with the way time is convoluted, I feel like everyone in their games (and solaire in his) counts toward the strength of the fire.

    So maybe you abandoned the fire in your game, but in my game I linked it, and my linking gave it a little bit of a boost to let it go on a little longer. So all the undead (or players) abandoning the fire and linking the fire back in their times (or games) causes the fire to ebb and flow, but all that linking is what allows the world to continue. And as time goes on unnaturally long, as convoluted as it already is, events starts to bleed into each other. Past AND future events.

    The important aspect of this idea, is that there's definitely a net loss over time. In DS1, when you link the fire it's a MASSIVE explosion. In DS2, a hearth or furnace becomes necessary to burn the "chosen undead" a little hotter. Then, in DS3, the "Ashens One" is meet with an entire quest to collect a TON of souls from incredibly powerful beings, traveling in time to amass all this power, and the flame barely burns when you link the fire.

    When these games talk about cycles, I think they're talking about the perpetual linking that's done by undead being tricked to go out and amass souls so they can become fuel. And in Dark Souls 2, I believe renouncing the throne only leads to another undead eventually challenging you (after MANY fail) and then one of those undead will eventually link the flame and keep the fire going. After all, the only thing that makes an undead chosen or an heir is that they come out of the meat grinder in one piece. You're not the only undead who is being lied to by a serpent or the fire keepers into seeking adversity for the purpose of becoming kindling. The fire has probably been linked millions of times.

    But in the end, no matter what we choose, the universe isn't going to just reincarnation infinitely. Each link is weaker and weaker, and eventually the fire will fade into nothing.

    Is it only me or SOTFS is a lot easyer to farm at the start of the game?

    Posted: 04 Dec 2019 07:18 AM PST

    SOTFS is easyer to farm souls in the beginning, its kind of odd, but you can easyly kill the ogre 12 times and get some souls of a hero (im not sure if that are the souls you get because im bad with item names) and you can even get one of them per ogre kill, assuming you enter the CoC you can farm him infinitely, and it's pretty easy, then upstairs backstabbing ground soldierd, and also you can farm a few more easy souls with the soldiers in the side of the stair that leads to the first possible pursuer encounter. That completely replaced my heide tower of flame farming with better results.

    Is Fume Knight actually Artorias reincarnated?

    Posted: 03 Dec 2019 03:21 PM PST

    You know how DS2 states that the events of DS1 are meant to play out over and over again, just with different names?

    Is Raime actually the reincarnation of Artorias? Just like how the Rotten is Nito or the Lost Sinner is the Witch of Izalith, is Raime, the fume knight, Artorias? Both were some of the greatest knights in their kingdoms and both became corrupted by the abyss(one by Manus and the other by one of his remnants).

    And on physical appearance, both have dark colors schemes (Artorias' dark blue and Raime's black), their helmets have similar design (cones with a V shaped opening to see), both are left handed (Artorias' left arm is broken so he has to swing with his left while Raime uses his left hand) and, not to mention, both have big ass swords.

    Edit: removed the part were it says that Raime opposed Nashandra, since its just a theory.

    Is this really the way?

    Posted: 04 Dec 2019 05:36 AM PST

    Got the game Monday while on sale. I've gone through the forest of fallen giants until reaching the tower and seem to have hit a dead end there. Is the only way to progress through Heides tower of flame with the giant stone Bois?

    Also why do enemies disappear after awhile? Is it because I've killed them too much?

    Why are transitions so bad in this game?

    Posted: 04 Dec 2019 05:34 AM PST

    Heide -> No Mans Wharf (water level makes no sense)

    Majula -> Heide (the path traveled does not make sense)

    No mans Wharf -> Bastille -> Sinner Rise (water level makes no sense)

    Majula -> FOFG (the path traveled does not make sense)

    Earthen Peek -> Iron Keep (...)

    Question: Why are all transitions wrong? they released the game like that, they had this knowledge, what's the point? couldn't render the maps? lore reason?
