| Posted: 17 Nov 2020 10:43 PM PST Hi all. I'm not good at games. I've bought Skyrim on 2 consoles and quit playing after reaching the first town both times. I bought the new God of War and got stuck on one puzzle and quit the game. So from what I've heard about Dark Souls it sounded like a very bad match for me. Either way I bough the game this week and fell in love. I've died so many times I've lost count. In other games I would have stopped a long time ago but there is something this game does that makes you want to try over and over again. Now I understand why this game is so loved. I'm kind of sad im so late to the party. Anyway, just wanted to get this off my chest. Praise the sun [link] [comments] |
| Posted: 18 Nov 2020 01:54 AM PST I just realized that in-game as the chosen undead we meet all the witches that we can see standing in a circle of 8 during the opening cutscene. There's the Witch of Izalith herself & two daughters either side of her, each with a staff, who account for the Bed of Chaos boss fight. The two who were transformed into spider demons: Quelaag and the Fair Lady. There's the witch who awaits us just outside the fog gate leading to the bed of chaos. We walk in on Ceaseless Discharge mourning his sister, the dead witch we get the gold hemmed set from. & lastly there's Quelana, the witch who escaped before she could be transformed into a demon. A moment which is assumed to have happened immediately after the glimpse we get of the Witch of Izalith holding her flame in the aforementioned circle. Idk it might be obvious & dumb or redundant, but I just realized I hadn't heard this detail before and it seemed worth sharing lol [link] [comments] |

| Sen’s Fortress made me feel accomplished as hell. Posted: 17 Nov 2020 07:02 AM PST I'm not great at video games. I mean, I can 100% most games I've played just fine, but I fall into a lot of pitfalls. I tend to walk into combat scenarios guns ablazing, I get picky about the exact methods of taking out enemies because I desire the most satisfying outcome over the most efficient one, and I have the reaction time of a snail. So Dark Souls has been progressively more rough to me over time (minus the massive and kinda bs difficulty spike that was the Capra Demon). And reaching Sen's Fortress... well, I thought I couldn't do it. It's a pretty complicated maze littered with traps to memorize (including that stupid fucking bolder that requires the reflexes and efficiency of a god to not lose 90% of your health bar to) and enemies you can only chip damage despite the fact that they can easily four-shot you or less. Combine that with my pretty low level (I don't really grind or have a good way to get soul, nor do I know what stats to focus on, meaning I mostly try to keep things even outside of maybe strength) and the fact that the only thing about this game's combat I can perform decently well is a 50% success rate on parries and back stabs against certain enemies, and I was certain I didn't have a chance. But I fucking did it. I don't know how exactly. And if there wasn't a fireplace so close to the boss I probably wouldn't have been able to handle it. But it was satisfying as shit. Getting into a perfect pattern of luring enemies into situations that are disadvantageous for them, dashing through traps, discovering secrets, and that fucking boss! Easily the best boss I've fought so far. Yeah I died probably a dozen times or more, but figuring out the perfect weapon and strategy to send the iron asshole tumbling off of a cliff was one of the most satisfying victories I've ever experienced! And getting to see the beautiful towering Anor Londo as contrast to the oppressive and claustrophobic trial I just faced was fucking breathtaking! I know I suck at this game. And lord knows if I can make it past "those" bosses. But this game is an amazing experience so far. It feels like it respects me. Like it isn't holding back its punches. And after years of being a Nintendo fan and breezing through anything that isn't tedious, having a game that tests my patience, strategy, and problem solving skills is an absolute breath of fresh air... even if I maybe do ask a few too many questions.

| Is there or will there be a complete Dark Souls collection for PS5? Posted: 18 Nov 2020 05:46 AM PST I'm planning on getting a PS5 and Demon's souls but I don't have any of the remasters or anything. Is there a full collection of Dark Souls 1-3 that I can buy and play on PS5? I haven't played 1 or 2 since the PS3 and I haven't played the Dark Souls 3 DLC at all so I wanna try to get it all in one set. Thanks. [link] [comments] |

| Finished DS:R, my first time ever playing & first time ever playing on a controller. Thoughts. Posted: 18 Nov 2020 04:56 AM PST https://i.imgur.com/oCtBM9M.jpg So, after two months and total of around 55 hours I beat the game yesterday, killing every boss possible (I checked). No magic, no summons, no real PvP (well, I got killed a few times), standard sword+shield wearing light/med equipment load. It was hell of a experience, especially being my first game using xbox controller in place of KB+M I normally play games on. After buying a new machine I finally decided to give Souls a try to see what's the hype about and as a challenge. Now I know what's the hype about, at least for me - It's a game I remember almost every part of and what I did where, sometimes even after not playing for half a month. I see a location and I can recall what I did. And I think it's the world I remember the most, not even bosses. Probably because over time I memorised how to efficiently get around it, but also because the world itself was much bigger of an experience and trial & error rather than the bosses. That's the part which was a surprise to me. Every time I heard of Dark Souls it was the boss fights which were being hyped as hard. In my experience, that was not the case at all. The hard part was getting around Tomb of Giants without any light pointing my camera at the floor not to fall down and dying to these goddamn skeleton beasts. Only after nearly finishing the location I found out my lamp I had all the way though works if I put it IN MY LEFT HAND not RIGHT HAND. duh. The hard part was finding out how can I get to Taurus demon quickly without dying. How to beat the knight in black armor at level 10 with a dagger (with a little help of gravity). That going balls to the wall melee against worms in the Molten Core ruins is a shit idea and I need arrows. That I should ignore the poison in the swamp under Blighttown. And the god forbidden Anor Londo entrance while being shot at. Finding bonfire in Sen's Fortress (thank you someone who died at that jump and I noticed the blood). I think a lot of the difficulty is very frontloaded or maybe it was for me, getting used to controller. I spent probably around 20 hours getting from the start to Gargoyles and killing them. Queelag took me some time, but mostly because I didn't know about the bonfire nearby. However, after Ornstein & Smough the game suddenly became quite... easy? Locations that weren't obvious to navigate (Tomb and the Crystal Hole) took some extra trial & error to beat gravity, but nearly everything up untill the DLC became a matter of one or two tries at most. The Hydra, Artorias and the Black Dragon were first fights that took some time and in case of Artorias, exactly an hour of repeated tries and dying, so the very end of the game was satisfying. Gwynn too, had to re-learn how to parry. Mid-game was a bit dissapointing difficulty-wise though. I believe it's up to few factors. First, weapon upgrades make a colossal difference and when I faced off some bosses I was obviously doing too much damage for the mechanics to have a proper go. Second, having more than 5 Estus a fight gives a big safety cushion and only few bosses counter it (Artorias waiting with attacks till you start healing, motherfucker, maybe Gwyn/Kalmeet too). But the biggest factor seems to be the fact how powerful the combination of blocking with shield and running around enemies to hit in the back is. Halfway through the game I nearly forgot how to dodge and I was wearing light/medium armor - only the last bosses and O&S require it. Overall, marvelous experience and a long one as well. I streamed end bits of it, including the very endgame and I wish I had streamed it from the start. But, onwards to other Souls game I will go, DS2 next probably. Oh, favourite boss ranking:

| Just beat DS1 for the first time in 9 years. Posted: 18 Nov 2020 12:32 AM PST I've beat every other fromsoft game except for this one, I honestly could never beat Gwynn. Woke up two days ago, decided to redownload it. Looked up a sorcery guide and I killed Gwynn in 5 seconds. Sco boyyyyyyyssss [link] [comments] |
| Posted: 18 Nov 2020 06:05 AM PST Today I went back to dark souls after uninstalling it from a rage quit but when I want to start the game the intro plays and the game loads forever , I'm using the remastered version of dark souls so any advice ? [link] [comments] |
| I just beat DS1 for the first time Posted: 17 Nov 2020 05:18 PM PST Let me start off by saying... Wow, never have I played a game and been so engrossed even though I almost never know what's going on. It was such and amazing game start to finish. However, I got the ending I didn't want to. You see, I wanted to go explore Ash Lake because I hadn't yet and I didn't know leaving the boss arena gave you a different ending. For my next playthrough so I can get the other ending should I play through New Game+ or start a new character all together? Edit: This is original DS, not Remastered. [link] [comments] |
| Anybody doing runs without leveling stats? Posted: 17 Nov 2020 11:42 PM PST Hi all, just want to know if there are more people that do "challenge" runs as playing one class and keeping the original soul level, not leveling any character attribute? Not only SL1 Pyromancer, but other classes as well. Did one playthrough with Bandid, now doing Cleric, looking forward to Thief. Do you have any tips or experience that helped you in your low SL runs? [link] [comments] |
| Hello, I got interested on playing the first Dark Souls, what should I know before start playing? Posted: 17 Nov 2020 03:21 PM PST My friend just told me that I should not trust a bald guy that appears during the game [link] [comments] |
| Posted: 18 Nov 2020 04:16 AM PST So my housemate just got done making this fuckin incredible video of his first time with Dark Souls: Remastered. It's a very funny well edited cut up and I appreciate it if you guys could show a lil love from the DS community!!! You won't regret it ;) [link] [comments] |

| Posted: 17 Nov 2020 12:29 PM PST This was the first time in recent memory that I really felt like I was enjoying Dark Souls the way I had when I first played it. I was forced to figure out new ways to fight with limited resources, and I loved every second of it. I posted here a few months ago about how I missed that feeling and someone recommended the SL1 run. My only rules were that I couldn't level up. Some people recommended no pyro but I figured with only two attunement slots, what's the harm. Plus, going no pyromancy just forces you into low damage weapons and then every boss is just a time consuming grind which is a little less fun imo. I recorded my deaths against each boss. Obviously the beginning of the game wasn't too much more difficult than normal, but the DLC is where things really ramped up. This is the order in which I fought each boss along with the number of deaths. 0 - Asylum Demon 0 - Taurus Demon 1 - Bell Gargoyles 0 - Moonlight Butterfly 2 - Capra Demon 0 - Gaping Dragon 0 - Quelaag 0 - Iron Golem 1 - Ceaseless Discharge 0 - Pinwheel 1 - Stray Demon 0 - Gwyndolin 6 - Smough & Ornstein 2 - Seath 0 - Sif 3 - Four Kings 8 - Demon Firesage 5 - Centipede Demon 1 - Bed of Chaos 0 - Gravelord Nito 0 - Priscilla 2 - Sanctuary Guardian 21 - Artorias 17 - Kalameet 33 - Manus 19 - Gwyn Biggest surprise bosses to me were how easy S&O were compared to how difficult I thought they were going to be. Second surprise was how hard Gwyn was compared to how easy I thought he was going to be. My equipment was this: +10 Fire Battleaxe; +5 Lightning Battleaxe; +5 Ascended Pyromancy Flame; +14 Grass Crest Shield; +14 Balder Shield; +14 Heavy Crossbow; Crown of Dusk; +9 Elite Knight Set; +9 Wanderer Set; Ring of Favor and Protection; Darkmoon Seance Ring; Chloranthy Ring; Darkwood Grain Ring; I changed stuff out quite a bit and spent a lot of time farming chunks out of new londo. It was fantastic! If anyone hasn't done an SL1 run yet and they really enjoy dark souls, I highly recommend it. It's the perfect blend of difficulty and forcing you out of your comfort zone. It was so much fun! [link] [comments] |

| How long did it take you to kill the banana demon on your first playthrough? Posted: 17 Nov 2020 02:26 PM PST First time Souls player here, a couple of days in (taking it slow) and the first proper boss with the nightmare-inducing music that goes ba-nana NA ba-nana NA jumps off the tower and scares the mother-loving hell out of me. Managed to get it on my sixth attempt even after botching the diving attack and trying to kill it with the menu still open. My goal is to play through this game as 'blind' as possible to get the full experience. Anyone here lucky enough to defeat it first try without him face-planting into the rocks below?

| Friend can't see my summon sign? Posted: 18 Nov 2020 01:42 AM PST We have the same password and network settings. We played online co-op before but he can't see me, were in the grand archives and we've been leveling up relatively around the same time, doing the same things together on our own save files.

| Posted: 17 Nov 2020 07:20 AM PST I'm in no means a gamer, never have I been one either. But I always found it calming to watch my bf play different types of games. He mostly played PS, and I've watched most of the big titles to the consoles. I was sometimes given the controller, to try it out, but nothing ever hooked me. Until he started the Dark Souls series. I was more involved than him, sitting on edge in the couch with a beer in one hand and dark souls wiki in the other, yelling where to run and what to look out for. Chaising those bonfires together was one of the most exciting events during my whole week, and I ended up buying us a PS4 just so we could properly play DS3. The games terrified me, but when we reached the third game I had gotten pretty comfortable with the big bosses and scary knights, so I found myself grabbing the controller more and more often. A few years passed and he moved on to other games, until a few months ago when I decided to play through the games by myself. This was quite big for me, since this was my first ever playthrough of a game even similar to this. With a little bit of help, I managed to get through DS3, just to move over to DS1, which I finished yesterday. Now, I'm ready to start a new built for DS2 tonight, and do I look forward to the journey. After that I'm having my eyes on Bloodborne and Demon Souls Remastered, and I'm filled with happiness when I think of all the hours ahead of me. My hope for a DS4 is still alive, and in the meantime I might even look into Elden Ring. The rest of the time, I live a life very separated from gaming, consoles or any PC-related gaming activities. I have typical girly interests, I don't follow E3, and I don't spend my time discussing technical aspects of the new consoles. But for a few hours every week, I grab that beer, give DS wiki to my bf, place him next to me and start a little journey that I enjoy more than any game I've ever experienced before. That's my small contribution to this community. Keep it up, and don't go hollow <3 [link] [comments] |
