    Dark Souls This game does wonders for my anxiety

    Dark Souls This game does wonders for my anxiety


    This game does wonders for my anxiety

    Posted: 20 Jan 2021 11:23 AM PST

    I'm going through a tough time right now what with the loss of an old friend, a breakup, and losing my house causing me to move back in with my dad.

    Getting to explore Lordran, slaying beasts and resting at bonfires has an oddly calming effect on me and my mental health. That's my favorite thing about the bonfires too - I always get a second chance. And when I FINALLY slay that seemingly impossible boss I feel so much accomplishment. I really hated this game when I first started playing but the more I conquered, the more I loved it.

    I see a lot of posts on this sub equating Dark Souls to the struggles of real life, and I've never felt it more than I am right now. Just wanna say I really love this game and this community and so many of you guys are so supportive as well as freaking hilarious. I know it sounds really lame, but it's how I feel.

    Much love from a depressed naked guy with a black knight sword. Don't you go hollow.

    Dark Souls has literally given me the first genuine happiness in months.

    Posted: 20 Jan 2021 11:17 PM PST

    First off I wanna thank this incredible fan base for the help and passion I've seen. I had a player invade my world, drop some Homeward Bones and leave. So thank you guys for being so awesome

    Second I wanna say with how my life has been going, depression, not many friends, stress, a recent break up with the love of my life - this game has been the ultimate stress reliever which is kinda ironic. I'm not even done yet but I've had such a amazing experience. I only got into it because of You-tuber Nakeyjakey and if I could thank him personally I would. I never thought I'd love this game but oh boy has it had a impact. It helps to be able to immerse my myself into such a deep and detailed world where I can focus on something.

    I'm so excited to play the rest of the SoulsBorne series and when I eventually get a PS5 play Demons Souls as well. So seriously thank you so much Dark Souls the impact you have had on me is unlike anything I've experienced in a game before.

    Has anyone else had any similar stories with this game? Please share I'd love to hear about them. As always thank you.

    Lore theory ; Slimes

    Posted: 20 Jan 2021 05:08 PM PST

    So i finished the whole series a bunch of times and im farely advanced in the lore but i never had a real clue about the origin of the slimes in the depths area, you know ; the Sewers.As item description states the 2 butchers that you meet shortly after the entrance are cannibals which ate human beings. As we know hollows cant die no matter what once the curse sets in when the fire threatens to burn out. So what happened to the people that got ate by the cannibals while being already afflicted by the curse? The slimes could probably be the answer to that. Looking kinda digested and meaty, when attacking seemingly pushing out bones or something similar. I think they are the eaten people, excreted by the cannibal butchers and still living on in the sewers.

    What do you guys think about that? Understandable? Or not? Share your opinions below.Praise the sun

    I HATE THIS SHIT

    Posted: 20 Jan 2021 08:13 PM PST

    I fucking mistakenly hit the R2 button and I fell down frampt's hole after getting back from anor londo. then I couldnt get back up so I placed the lordvessel and thn find out now frampts gone for the whole fucking playthrough because I mistakenly hit a button now I can't use my gold or siver coins at all. just ridiculous after all this effort I cant go back to a save or anything because mistakenly hitting a button that made me move forward and fall down a hole, then did what I was supposed to do but still get penalized. like I just cant believe all that just happened. So theres nothing I can do with my coins right?

    Finally completed dark souls remastered

    Posted: 21 Jan 2021 03:30 AM PST

    After my first playtrough I decided I wanted to complete the game. Stupid me consumed all the lord souls on my first playtrough so I had to get to New game +++. But! I've done it! 100% complete. Took me 2 characters. One with 50 hours on it and one mage with 6 hours. All I have to say now is: fuck dukes fucking archives and the four kings.

    About Ornstein and Smough

    Posted: 20 Jan 2021 08:09 PM PST

    It took me 16 tries on my first ever playthrough on my first ever Souls game, I'm so goddamn happy :)

    How many tries did YOU need the first time fighting them on your first playthrough?

    Sieglinde shield

    Posted: 21 Jan 2021 01:16 AM PST

    when I do co-op in dukes and my host kills the gold golem, Sieglinde appears, character model without armor, with bastard sword (can see clearly the model) and tower kite shield, not pierce shield.

    However in my world, Sieglinde has bastard sword and pierce shield. I m interested for a Sieglinde - Siegward duo cosplay, what do you guys think is her real shield? same as her father or tower kite shield?

    Posted: 21 Jan 2021 03:24 AM PST

    How do all the different types of upgrade work,I currently have a +10 zweihander but none of the other options like chaos or raw weapons make sense to me and I don't understand how it works/what it does.I know it's a dumb question but please help.

    You can't enter centipede demon from the back and I'm incredibly disappointed

    Posted: 20 Jan 2021 05:29 AM PST

    A while ago I was watching a speedrun and they did something that caught my mind. They did some quitouts and clipped through the quelaag elevator and plunged firesage. I thought that was super cool but since I didn't want to glitch that way, something crossed my mind. What if I backtrack from the daughters of chaos shortcut all the way to the elevator. I knew I would have a hard time, but I tried it anyway. I got flash sweat, armor with very high fire res and tried going to centipede demon. Since there's a bonfire right before and after that fight I knew if I beat him, I could do the unthinkable and reverse activate the elevator. Spent all my humanity and had to go get more for kindling, since lava still does stupid damage even with flash sweat. You can't enter the centipede demon arena. I'm broken.

    Do you feel sorry for Seath?

    Posted: 20 Jan 2021 08:03 PM PST

    I used too. In the end, he's a deranged monster even by the standards of dragons. But he's also a huge asshole that engages in human experimentation. Kind of a deal breaker?

    Tips for Hellkite dragon

    Posted: 20 Jan 2021 06:08 PM PST

    I didn't kill it until late game, specifically after killing Nito and reaching Manus. I had a lightning longbow +3, Paladin armor (except for the helmet) +1, Mask of the Father, lightning uchigatana +4, havels ring, flameplate ring and dragon crest shield. First I shot off its tail, then shot it in the head as many times as I was confident as I could without him healing. Then I ran up the stairs, along the rail into the corner. I waited for him to finish his breath attack then stepped up to the other post and let the tip of my weapon stretch out of cover. I had to wait a few seconds for him to land on the bridge, then charged and hit it 2 or 3 times until it was dead.

    Wanting to use spells for the first time in new game+ (level 115)

    Posted: 21 Jan 2021 03:46 AM PST

    I made it through my first playthrough only using melee. I'm level 115 and all my points have been dumped into endurance, strength and vitality. I want to see how many playthroughs I can get with this character but I'd like to pickup spells to freshen things up a bit and perhaps help with the increase in challenge.

    Is it too late for me to start dumping points into spell-related stats? I don't know how many more levels I can expect to gain from this point on. I don't really play online.

    I may have gotten myself permanently suck in the catacombs

    Posted: 20 Jan 2021 05:49 PM PST

    I went down to the catacombs to kill pinwheel and I got the bottom by going to the blacksmith but I didn't lower the second bridge. Is there anyway I can leave or do I have to start over? I don't have the lordvessle yet.

    Question about game (no-spoilers please)

    Posted: 20 Jan 2021 11:06 PM PST

    I just started my play through of the game and was wondering if Andre is missable or not. I don't want to blow past him in my play through and not upgrade my equipment, so I just need confirmation that he is on the main path.

    Just beat Kalameet on my first attempt

    Posted: 20 Jan 2021 11:02 PM PST

    What a rush... My heart is still racing. He's gotta be the hardest boss I beat on the first shot. What an excellent fight. Was dreading another O&S situation where it would take me 20 attempts, but everything went much better than I anticipated. It definitely got uncomfortably close a few times, though.

    Just wanted to share my excitement! Feel free to share stories about your own triumphant victories if you like.

    Btw - My build at the moment is 40 dex/40end/35vit with the Uchigatana +15 and Grass Crest Shield +10

    Weapon recommendations

    Posted: 20 Jan 2021 07:30 PM PST

    I've been using a raw +5 claymore for the second half of the game which has been working great for me up until the last bosses before gwyn. Kalameet and manus are annihilating me and my weapon isn't doing nearly as much damage as it has to other bosses. This is my first play through of Dark Souls so I don't really know how all the weapons are yet. Does anyone know what weapon is most effective against these two?

    Frampt almost killed me IRL

    Posted: 20 Jan 2021 02:02 AM PST

    (First Playthrough) First off I have a heart condition that can be set off rarely from high levels of adrenaline (Sh**ting myself). Anyway I was coming back from Blight town from ringing the 2nd bell, rested up at firelink because I had already killed Lautrec, decided to have a nice stroll around to rest for a minute, walk up to the archway and see Frampt staring me down in what i assumed was his attack range so naturally it scared the hell out of me and through that scare my heart stated beating extremely fast and hard which ultimately set off a Tachycardia (Dangerous condition where the heart is beating way too fast, gets up to 310bpm for me) i had to take a trip to the hospital and was put on monitoring overnight and I was released just yesterday, I don't hold it against Frampt but truly one of the worst jump scares I've ever experienced, F*ck you Frampt

    How should i proceed as a pyro?

    Posted: 21 Jan 2021 12:36 AM PST

    I'm mainly asking about the NPC aspect since it seems pretty complicated, i don't want to accidentally screw my run by not making Quelana appear or by making Laurentius leave. I've never really done a pyro build in ds1 so tips are appreciated
