Whats the general consensus of people who've played it so far? Is it the best Souls game or what?
Bump
My opinion: Great as if not better than Bloodborne.
Come on /v/. This is supposed to be th e part where you either tell me its a fucking disaster and From Soft is finished or you tell me how this game is a god send and a bright light at the end of a tunnel of AAA shit
>>332377440
Thats pretty damn promising since BB is the second best Souls game
i liked it a lot, beat it two days ago
both pvp and pve are amazing this time around which is a first to me
yes
its the best souls game
>>332377195
I genuinely enjoy it. My favorite souls game
How is the battle axe moveset? One of my favorite weapons but I would be shocked if they were able to top the majesty that was the Hunter's Axe
>>332378082
>>332378142
>>332378370
>>332377440
Damn /v/ that's exciting. You've actually put me back in the hype. For some reason I was getting terribly cynical about this game and was afraid it would be another DS2
Who /caestus/ here? I can't fucking wait for this game.
>>332377195
Its the best. Reminds me of DeS + DaS with most of the shitty parts removed (the Lost Izalith type area is once again shit but in a totally different, less shitty way).
>>332378926
Is that an early game boss? He took it like a bitch
Its great.
About 24 hours for a first playthrough if you aren't shit, add on a little for secret areas. Weapon arts for the most part are boring or do next to nothing. Bosses are all amazing maybe 1-2 duds based on what you like in a fight. This is the first Souls game where I think the difficulty actually ramps up instead of random spikes like O&S and Father Gascoigne cock blocking most new players.
If you haven't spoiled yourself yet I'm begging you to wait a little while longer for English+60fps its gonna be so worth it.
>>332379065
Its actually the hardest boss in the game, the broadsword does way too much damage and his AI has a huge exploit (he always does that overhead into the really slow weapon buff after half HP).
>>332378926
wow that looked pathetically easy
Bloodborne is the best souls type game period. das and des cucks take off your nostalgia goggles for once. ds2 fans dont even bother.
debate meyou cant
>>332379227
Wow. Preorder cancelled
>>332378784
>afraid it would be another DS2
If you're a shitter with a poor attitude then you won't enjoy DaS3 either. Just save your money.
>>332378784
its the actual das2 if anything
>>332379493
PvP was shit and weapon variety sucked ass, but yeah BB was pretty great.
I know nothing about DS3, so I hope they have so more interesting covenants and PvP stuff going on. I'm also one of the few who doesn't despise the soul memory system in DS2, but maybe I'm just a beta cuck faggot who doesn't enjoy getting reamed in the ass by smurf characters.
>>332377669
Not even close
>>332379736
the pvp is amazing and chaotic, you get 3v3s, 4v2s, or 3v1s really often
>>332379693
>actually defending DS2
How's the character creator? Can I make a half naked bishonen villain? This is super important information.
>>332379693
DS3 is on a complete other level than Ds2 don't even try comparing them.
Everyone on /v/ seems to hate it.
Finished it yesterday
Dark Souls 3 > Dark Souls = Bloodborne > Demon's Souls > Dark Souls 2
>It's a "Boss heals itself" episode
>>332379736
covenants in ds3 are shit and redundant.
>weapon variety sucked ass
while bb weapons were hald of its predecessors their play ability and depth far outnumbered das and ds2. chaining combos in bb is unmatched. and the amount of joy you get from one single weapon is worth 5 generic halbreds, 4 generic big swords and 7 generic staffs (all weapons which have the exact same moves give or take very very few) you get in the previous games
It's pretty great so far. I just wish the game had actual fucking colors. Everything is grey and straight out of bloodborne
I was gonna pre order this on my xbone since I've never played souls before and xbone comes with ds1. Kind of excited to finally play it recommended class for beginners?
>>332380012
I literally have heard almost nothing bad about it
>>332380142
the covenants work great, its how you get all those chaotic pvp battles
>>332380145
>Everything is grey
its not though
>>332380154
The one with the Axe. You can use it the entire game and STR builds usually don't waste points on dumb shit.
A guy I occasionally watch on Twitch who plays a lot of Souls and Bloodborne thinks it's really great, much better than DS2. He wasn't decided if he liked it as much as BB but it was close and really great, so I am excited.
>>332380320
Look at all those shades of blue. Truly amazing.
Almost at the level of bloodborne, but still below.
>>332380387
Sup Tolomite.
bloodborne's the best, but ds3 is really good; idk if it's better than ds1, but it's definitely better than 2up to grand archives; some good bosses, but also some REALLY bad ones
The game seems a bit more linear than the last few games, instead of being able to fight four of the lords at the start like DaS2, you can only fight three and the final one is set farther in the first area of the game, exactly like the archstones in DeS only everything is interconnected (outside of the Firelink Shrine). It has multiple optional areas and bosses though.
>>332379657
Wow. No one cares.
>>332378926
Can you get that weapon the boss has? that's literally my dream weapon
>>332381546
I think so.
>>332377195
DS3>Bloudbourne=DS2>DS1>DeS
>>332381296
You can actually go into the upper parts of Lothric by killing the High Priestess in the chair at the beginning of the game and fight the Dancer.
Is the Alva set in this?
They seem to be ignoring DS 2 but it would be shame to see that armor tossed to the wayside
>>332379801
Discluding DS3, there are four Souls games. So if BB isn't even close to second best then, it must be the worst. If you honestly think DS2 is better than BB you must be retarded.
Conclusion: you are retarded
>>332382047
Yes.
>>332378926
spoiler tag you fucking cunt
>>332382039
Now the game is my favorite in the series.
>>332381947
>Bloudbourne=DS2
>>332378842
They're pretty cool. two-handing it automatically equips you with two of them, and the weapon art appears to be a damage-mitigating block if you get the timing right.
>>332382158
that's fat
>>332381546
Yep and his armor (complete with 80s hair metal haircut).
>>332380470
maybe this is a little more your speed
>>332382387
>the tiny face poking out from inside the folds of scarf and helmet
That looks like a little kid playing dress up
>>332379065
Fun fact, thats Gwyn's first born.
>>332380320
Reminds me of ff7 for some reason
>>332382562
You can get pretty much every boss in the games armor and most of the really big guys armor has that look sadly.
>>332382047
Alva is actually an invader, pretty neat twist.
I need something to play until DaS 3 launches, what do I play? sadly Overwatch beta and ToS launch way too late...

Lords of the Fallen.
Basically Dark Souls combat with Witcher 3 story telling and content.
Are the links on pirate bay legit. Has anyone tried them?
>>332377195
No. Demon's will most likely never be dethroned.
>>332383105
Please don't recommend that game to anyone.
>>332383203
The "Lords of the Fallen was bad XD!!!!" meme is getting old. They pretty much almost put FROM, CD Projeck Red, Bethesda, and Treyarch out of business with their masterpiece.
>>332383105

Well at least you tried

>Bought it because I was so hype for 2, still glad I got the pass because the DLCs were really good
>DaS3 has season pass

>I'm kind of hype but also uncertain if I should buy the pass or not, especially because I'm unsure about how well my PC will run the game overall
Is it worth buying the pass? I save like half a dollar with the bundle(fucking 5%? Really?)and the positive reviews from /v/ so far have given me hope that it'd be worth it, but I'm not 100% on board because that's $80 for an unknown amount of DLCs and because shit like SotFS has me scared I'll be wasting my money.
>Captcha: Help Skeletons
I've never played a Souls game, but I've heard that this series has a lot in common with Berserk. Can someone tell me the similarities? Also, just how much like Berserk is it?
i hope its at least 40 hours like dark souls 1.
SOTFS was crazy i took like 80 hours. loads of exploring and item description reading.
>>332383105
If you grab it for super cheap it might be worth it, but in my eyes it was too clunky, too short and felt kind of generic.
>>332383748
Two DLCs in the DS3 season pass, one this fall and one next year.I know because it's part of a training module for FUCKING GAMESTOP.
>>332383748
From has integrity as a company so I would say go ahead. BB's Old Hunter and Arty of the Spooky Caves were all around solid DLC worth their price.
>>332383873
I really hope one of the DLCs has something to do with the serpents.
>>332383748
If there's one thing Fromsoft can make its god tier DLC.
>>332383805
The director and president of From is a huge berserk nerd, the games are full of references and enemies/characters that are inspired by it. There are also some Jojo references if you're into that.
>>332383748
Have they made any bad DLC?
>>332383873
Is this something legit that can be confirmed? I'd hope then they're both large DLCs worth $15 each then, so I don't waste money on the pass.
>>332384262
>>332384385
I do like From a lot and have faith in them, I've just been uneasy because DaS2 left a disappointing feeling in me and I've mostly been avoiding spoilers for 3 so I just don't know a lot about the game's quality. But I've heard good things so far, and they DLCs of previous games have proven to be good, so I guess I'll take the risk and buy the pass as well.
Thanks, anons.

Ive been play Dark Souls 3 since 3 days ago and I can confirm its fucking great.
is the nameless king the last boss?
boy is he hard tho
>>332384897
Nope.
Final boss is a fist fight against Liquid Ocelot on top of a submarine.
>>332384897
No. The final boss isthe guy on the cover, all of his moves are based on different builds that he changes at will. His weapon is the coiled sword and he even has a Soul Suck from False King albeit without leveling down the player sadly.
>>332385072
one last question, do i go into NG+ if i beat him?
>>332385072
Im so tempted to look.
Tell me, I just got to Lothric Castle. How much more is there to go?
>>332384860
Between previous games, how high would you rank it so far?
BB=DS3>DS1>DeS>>>DS2
>>332385171
a very long way
>>332385167
No. Youcan link the fire or not, leaving doesn't trigger another ending like DaS
>>332377195
It's almost as good as DeS. It's way better than DaS 1 and 2.
>>332385236
3=1 > BB > SoTFS > 2
Its kinda hard to compare 3 and 1 as 1 was my first souls game and I had more the the signature "Souls difficulty" since I was new. 3 has alot of new technical improvements and mechanics. Maybe its because I min/maxed and have experience now but the early game of 3 was fairly easy, still fun though.
hey /v/ is ithard?
>>332385497
the second last boss is fucking my ass
>>332385326
Im glad.
Am I the only one who teared up whenYou find the giant blacksmith dead in Anor Londo? He was always a homie

That whole area was a real downer, pretty impressive they managed to make such a sad environment with no words or cutscenes or anything.

Alright, sweet, this is great news. I think I'll go ahead and buy the delux edition when I can and avoid spoilers as much as I can till then.

I wonder what goes through people's heads when they say shit like this.
>man I wish every new souls game would replicate my first experience with the series when I was new as fuck, didn't know shit about mechanics and locations and every enemy and each boss were real struggle

watching this maximilian DOOD and he is running the game at 10 fps with a 980ti what the shit?
Without spoiling any lore, do we know what the covenants are like yet?Compare them to previous covenants if you need to.
Is there tracking overheads all over like Da2?
Do you have bonfire warping from the beginning?
>>332379121
Lol 60 fps destroys your invincibility frames
I thought it was fine but still kind of not great.
I am struggling, it brings back so many of the elements I loved in past games as well as the things I disliked. I like Storm Ruler returning to make for a boss where you don't just stab it's feet. Along with full red eye orbs, wide variety of armour.
But then it brings back a poise system from Souls 2 that I still cannot even begin to understand. While I hated Havel's armour for the stagger resist, I think it's silly being stunlocked by dogs when wearing heavy armour. Then there's warping from the start and a horrible linear design. Some enemies behave like it's Bloodborne and have combo attacks consisting of far more moves than needed as well as some enemies clearly having an unfair amount of stamina like in Souls 2.
It also doesn't bring back things I liked such as the ability to be invaded while hollow and the fantastic sound design that's in Bloodborne is completely gone. It was very dull exploring some areas as so little noise was happening. And what is worst is how little character dialogue changes in the hub. It's the one aspect of Dark Souls I absolutely love.
I like it a lot, but it still sits in the shadow set by Dark Souls 1.
>>332386142
Oh thank fucking god, how the fuck did I miss that
If you replace the word "fire/flames" in the game with Legumes, you get a pretty retarded story.
>>332386415
>put on full havels
>get staggered and stunned into a combo by a tiny thrall and his dinky hatchet
nice to know poise still doesn't exist
>>332386415
>But then it brings back a poise system from Souls 2
That's good news. Nerfing poise was one of the best changes they made with 2.
>>332386415
if this shit is all true that sucks, but i wasn't expecting 3 to equal 1 so i'll probably really like it.
>>332386414
how do you know they'll be doing as hacky a job as they did with 1 and 2?
>>332386870
not him but
>how do you know the hacks at From are hacks
Anon, pls, pls anon
>>332386692
Poise exists. It just actually works properly now. Also shields now have their own type of poise stat.
>>332382158
dat ass
>>332386415
>warping from the startthank god
I've seen a retarded amount of returning weapons and armor. Is there any NEW stuff in the game? Is it any good?
>>332386808
I definitely think nerfing poise was a smart choice but think the implementation was awful. Being able to withstand a hit from Gwyn should not be a thing, but neither should being hit by a 6 hit combo from 2 daggers stagger you infinitely. It' seems to favour people who have fast swinging swords and those who wear heavy armour as the powerarmour is more likely to aid them through a hit. As far as I can tell anyway.
I wish I fucking knew more specifics but am not that autistic to go through with the data finding.
>>332377195
Honestly?
Mediocre
Same old shit, not much creativity, heavily relies on your previous Souls experience
As it's own game, it's weak. It's not a bad game, but not great either.
>>332386415
How are the boss/monster screams compared to Bloodborne? The NPC audio in that game was great.
>>332387241
Not him but I was disappointed when basically all the bosses were silent when fighting them. Its like you can tell where they had to cut corners for release, reminds me of DeS.
>>332386959
Can you elaborate on
>Works properly now.
>>332387241
I don't recall them saying a damn thing. I am avoiding the Nameless King zone until PC release is out as I want to save some new content.
The music can definitely be fitting for some, Dance of the Frigid Valley for example blends amazingly well with the type of boss and the arena.
>>332377195
Honestly?
It's pretty damn great.
Builds on what was already established in good ways, still manages to be creative even though it references DaS1 a lot.
As its own game, it's strong. A very good game overall.
>>332384795
I would pay for a 'well what is it' gesture in a heartbeat just so I can meme on niggas
>>332387347
Think of it as a stun bar similar to any other thing like poison, more poise > longer bar. When it fills up you get stunned. This is also the case when blocking with shields now.
What class will you/did you roll first?
I'm really torn between either being a cutie herald with something like a claymore or halberd and miracles or going for a pure 30/30 quality build using top tier quality weapons and bows, whichever class would be best for pure quality.
>>332387241
The only scream I even remember was Vordt of the Borreal Valley screaming just before the fight. Other than that, I don't know.
>>332387213
>Being able to withstand a hit from Gwyn should not be a thing
but why? in some ways you're almost a successor to gwyn and the other gods. if you invest enough stats and you prefer a tank build, what's the problem?
lightweight rolling is still the most powerful option in DaS1 anyway.
>>332377195
>majority of bosses are big humanoids with weapons
No.
>>332387668
are there more humanoids compared to das1?
>>332387724
Dunno about BB but Souls always had the same ratio in every game. It's always a 60% humanoids to 40 "something else" in every Souls game, both enemies and bosses.
>>332387613
It was mainly due to significantly reducing the difficulty of so many encounters in the game. Being hit by that fat ass sword should at least do something to offset your balance. Along with 20 estus, you could just chug your way through all battles without needing to worry about blocking/parrying.
But then that raises an issue in pvp where wielding a greatsword and heavy armour will make you ni-unkillable as you can break poise easily while also not being staggered as well as the high armour values. With the increased speed of combat in Souls 3, it doesn't make for proper balance.
It's just a mechanic I don't think has ever been implemented well. Which is odd as I don't ever remember being stunlocked in Demon's Souls as feeling unfair because that game never even had a poise stat to consider.
I'm sure I will begin to understand it eventually the more I play Das3, but as of right now across all armour equipment I have worn, I don't remember ever not being staggered when hit, unless it was during powerarmour phase.
>>332387668
All the bosses are either a knight or a gimmick boss (most of which are actually good unlike pretty much every other one in the series) with like three exceptions. The difference between DaS3's knights and DaS2's knights is in the third game they actually have more attacks than just the three swings + an overhead with retarded tracking, they are all way more aggressive too and most have some sort of gimmick their own (most of which are good, and none are outright bad).
>>332377195
>Is it the best Souls game or what?
Yes. It is the only souls game that has kept the improvements that were made in the other games.
Also both the PVP and PVE are fun, unlike Dark Souls 2 or Bloodborne.
mfw dual wield isn't viable...
>>332387481
So Dark Souls one?
Beautiful
>>332384768
I'm ok with any DLC as long as it doesn't have a whole new flavor ofFrigid Outskirts
>>332387493
knight is the best class for nearly every build
>>332388206
OrIron corridor, fuck that whole area.
>>332387724
Demon King, Abyss Watchers, Yhorm, Dragonslayer Armor, Twin Princes, Pontiff, Gundyr, Oceiros, Nameless King, Dancer, Vordt, Crystal Sage, and the Soul of Cinder are all humanoid.
Only non-humanoid ones I can think of are the Greatwood, Ancient Wyvern, the King of Storms, Aldritch, and Wolnir.
>>332388359
Can Dark Souls 2 DLC bosses ever be topped?
>>332388384
I wouldn't count vordt as humanoid, it's like sif in armour.
it kind of annoys me that pyromancy scales with two stats. Does anyone know the bonus damage cap from stats for pyromancies?

>Ivory Crown had really comfy and interesting setting, some great views, and one of the best boss fights in the series, but it had two bad bosses and arguably the most annoying area in the series
>>332388696
Why can't you? Everybody else is.
>>332388224
Pretty much. They gave the knight too high int/faith. They shouldve taken like 2-3 points off both and put them into luck.

JUST
I've never played a Souls game but I want to get into it. I don't have a PS3/4 though, am I ABSOLUTELY missing out if I don't play DeS or BB?
So it looks like the Day 1 Patch fixes lots of problems with performance and increases the difficulty A LOT or so have I heard.
Anyone can confirm this?
>>332388946
Nope.
Dark Souls 3 is a better version of those games, specially Demons Souls.
Anyome know what catalyst the ice magic uses? Also how is pyromancer this time around?
>>332382158
Hello hips
How is everyone playing it?Can I get it off Jap PSN easily?
>>332379857
DS2 has much better gameplay than DS1. Just because the setting/lore/atmosphere wasn't as good doesn't mean you retarded fags have to keep perpetuating this fucking retarded meme.

And so many new annoying mechanics they shouldn't have changed from 1.
>>332389541

>>332388224

>>332379736
Not him but
>PVP sucked
Lol who cares for pvp in an pve game?
>weapon variety sucked
That's a lie. It had few weapons but the existing were all unique except maybe cleaver and spear.
>>332378926
This boss looks fucking sick.
Did they finally get bossfights right? Or are they still "Get fucked by every single gimmick until you know them all and how to avoid them"?
From really doesn't have a good understanding of how to make a good bossfight.
>>332388938
>moonlight greatsword will always be nerfed to shit
So, do we get an even remotely hopeful ending this time, or is it ENTROPY: THE SERIES still
>>332389602
8000 because you can only buy PSN cards at 5000 and 3000 for the cheapest route. Which is $80 USD.
>>332389943
Fuck that's $94 AU
>>332389828
That still pissed me off with 2. CMW MLGS was nerfed both far too much and unnecessarily in my opinion, since it was before anyone knew how magic defense worked and how easy it was to get in 2 to the point where you could nullify most if not all magic damage.
>>332389891
I don't know what you are honestly expecting after this many games.
>>332387493
Maybe Pyromancer but Knight looks better in every way. How do pyromancies scale anyways? Do I need high Faith or Intelligence or is it like DaS1? If I need to invest a lot of level ups into Fai/Int to get decent damage I'm not going to use it at all.
How many hours do you anons have in previous Souls games?
>Roughly ~50 in DeS, borrowed it from a friend and played through it a few times for a week
>785 in DaS1
>148 in DaS2, plus roughly ~25 hours from 360 version

>>332390206
A point would be nice.
>>332390390
And here you are without one, completely expected.
>tfw I wake up everyday hoping for a leak
>>332390337
I have around 500 hours in DaS1 and 2 each and 100 in Bloodborne
>>332390337
Probably 100 hours in DeS and DaS2 each (basically impossible to tell for DeS because only 4 save slots) and many more for DaS1 across all three platforms, around 500 or so.
>>332390337
About 3-400 in DeS, over 1000 in DaS1, 600hours of regretin DaS2, around 300 in BB.
so far,
BB > DaS3 > DeS > DaS > DaS 2
das 3 could be better than BB or worse than DeS but definitely the best dark
>>332390337
About 150hrs in DS2 and around 130hrs in DS1.
Not got a PS4 so no BB.

Whoa you can finally equip armour while in dragon form? Aside from helm I guess.

Nice bait. Mine's Lords of the Fallen xD
Please tell me there's convenant arena in DaS3, other wise we'll have to congregate around a level for battle again.
>>332391230
There are multiple dragon stones that give you different powers, one of them (the weakest one) only transforms your head.
>>332391364
That's super fucking neato.
i,ve only played DaS 1 and Bloodborne. will i be missing anything lore wise?

CAN I BE A DICKWRAITH IN THIS GAME?
>>332392509
No but you can be a wraiths dick.
>>332393049
Armor, sword and shield dark hand thing are in the game, the sword can be swung in the same fruity way the enemies do (not sure if you could do that in DaS1, I never use the thing).
>>332391043
Amazing, that looks fun as fuck
>>332393147
You get the red eye orb though right? No soul memory?
What would it take to convince Sony to allow Bloodborne on the PC instead of Tired Souls 3?
>>332393730
Yes (its actually really easy to get)
Yes.
>>332390560
>BB > DaS3
Spotted the sonygger.
Dark Souls 3 has good PVP and PVE. It also doesn't have a drop in quality halfway through like BB.
>>332393915
They won't. You'll have to buy a ps4 or go without. Sony has to do zero work to get you to play it, and loses nothing if you don't.
>>332393730
Instead of SM we get a couple more restriction.
>You can only invade those with Ember buff (Which give the host as much as 1.4 more HP)
>Or a host that summoned other co-op phantom
>Aside from SL, your matchmaking were also dictated by equipment enhancement level in your inventory, of which you can only invade those with the same level or higher enhancement level
Based on the streams I've been watching so far, the PvP have been quite a gankfest.
1v1 invasion situation is quite a rarity.
>>332394281
The ember buff is justified when invaders can heal at the same speed as the host. They come in with full flasks and the host almost certainly has used at least a few.
is the "well what is it?" gesture in?
Is the giant armor in?
Is the mask of the father in? I need to know
>>332395132
Yes
Yes
Yes
HOWEVERThe Zweihander is not
>>332394281
>>You can only invade those with Ember buff (Which give the host as much as 1.4 more HP)
Same as the human form in Dark Souls 1
>>Or a host that summoned other co-op phantom
False. Solo invasion are back.
>>Aside from SL, your matchmaking were also dictated by equipment enhancement level in your inventory, of which you can only invade those with the same level or higher enhancement level
Citation needed.
>>332395217
He said OR not AND. A host with a phantom and no ember buff can also be invaded.
>>332377195
What I've seen so far is like 80% good/great, 20% meh/it's shit
And I think that at least some of the people talking shit about it are doing it just to be faggots.
What have Japanese reviewers and players said about the game? It's been a few days now, we have to have some information.
>>332395217
>Same as the human form in Dark Souls 1
>False. Solo invasion are back.
You can only solo invade those with Ember buff, which work like humanity except that the host gets 40% more HP.

What isn't shown in the video is the 50 times whoever recorded that died practicing. Every Dark Souls game is the same deal, everything is really hard at first but once you figure it out it's a lot easier. That's why repeat playthroughs of any Souls game go by much quicker than the first one.
>>332395187
The Zwei is in.
>>332395387
Look at my flasks, he kicked my ass up to the point I decided to be cheap and abuse his AI.
>>332377195
It's what Dark Souls 2 should have been.
>>332395819
>The Zwei is in.
Thank god, I would be so disappointed if it wasnt
>>332390228
Pyromancies are faith/int based. Not just to scale the damage, but to even meet the requirements for the majority of the spells.
Theres only a couple of pyromancies with no int/faith requirements and I think that's just basic fireballs.
>>332395360
>What have Japanese reviewers and players said about the game? It's been a few days now, we have to have some information.
Anybody? I know you niggas are holding out.
>>332389796
Name 10 games with better boss fights
>>332390337
I've got 844 in Dark Souls and the Dark Soul achievement. Not on Steam but on GFWL.
Dark Souls II I've just got 87 hours and I never finished it.
>>332396092
Review NDA is lifted on 4th April, no reviews till then.
DaS3 > the rest of Souls and BB
>>332396190
Man reviews dropping a full week before release. Weird as hell.
>>332378926
wow he practiced quite a bit, everyone struggles at that boss at first
who /piratingthegame/ here
>>332396073
I dont get this decision. Was it being abused before because it only cost souls? Now they are just giving casters even more shit to fire off. I liked it better just costing souls. It differentiated it from miracles and sorceries.
>>332396307
Why's that weird?
It's pretty standard practice really.
>>332388205
It was the worst mechanic in the series.
>>332396510
Probably because they didn't make Hexes their own school of magic anymore. back to the way DaS did it, except for pyromancy which is more like how DaS2 did Hexes.
>>332396601
Wait so there are hexes as well? Is there an item like Velka's talisman or the Darkmoon catalyst? If so casters are going to have soo many options.
The combat is worst then BB but better then Dark Souls 1/2. It's definitely a strong title, but it feels generic at this point.
