>no mini map or quest makers
>no NPCs suggesting to you what's next or environmental clues
>just a random cluster fuck mish mash of areas with no coherence

Is it actually possible to complete this game without a guide? I've been forced to use the IGN guide to let me know where to go next and I feel like the experience is being ruined but I have no choice. I mean, howe the fuck are you supposed to know that you need to learn a gesture from a random corpse then travel to the other side of the map and use that gesture in a really random spot so you can magically teleport to the middle of bumfuck nowhere?

Is it just poor Nip game design yet again?

I actually felt as though I had enough clues to get where I am so far, level 44 like two bosses ahead of Abyss Watchers but the extinguishing the flames was a bit obscure for my taste. Any specific places you're having trouble with OP?

Which is it, faggot?
Is it one big main path, or are there branches and large maps?

There are messages on the ground from the game itself giving you clues or they just straight up tell you what to do.

Exploring is essential in Dark Souls so get to it.

Even the NPCs you talk to tell you what to do with certain items and the crestfallen bro near the bonfire gives tons of hints.

I seriously don't get what people are complaining about. If you want to do the more obscure shit you just need to work for it. Read every item, explore everything, talk at least 3 times with NPCs and be on the lookout for gates, hidden entrances or holes.

Having said all that, JESUS CHRIST THE SWAMP WHERE FARRON KEEP LIES IS PURE CANCER. Finally got through after two hours of fatrolling.

"The eternal struggle" is central to the game so never give up brehs.

But III does this, it really feels like a true DeS sequel.

That's a nice picture, I'm going to save that if you don't mind.

The only thing that is needlessly vague is the dragon gesture teleportation.

The rest is pretty fucking easy to follow.

what did he mean by this?

It's yours to take bby <3

>>334288878
and the NPC quest lines

I'm thinking of getting this game. Is OPs claim true? How would you get to the next level if you don't know where it is?!

Also they say that people can join your game while you are playing and kill you. Is there a way to disable that? That doesn't sound fun. Is there an easy mode mod yet, or maybe cheats? The game sounds hard, and I don't like dieing and restarting
>>
I quite like the way they've donethe world in 3. It's true that itsbliner in the since that it pushes you from area to area but each area seems to have so many nooks and crannys to explore that it ends up working out for the best. So far I've only explored the swamp like area which leads to farrons keep and the cathedral of the deep. Its no dark souls 1 but it xomes damn close.
>>
>>334288542
OP was so lazy, he pirated the game and didn't bother installing the online crack
>>
>>334288542
you're bro for typing all that but this thread is full of trolls and bait, dont bother
>>
Yep, completely impossible.
Might as well not bother to play the game anymore, OP. Sorry.

>>334289040
Nah those are just like they've always been, any souls vet knows this shit by know.

>>334287083
Hahaha go back to world of warcraft holy fucking shit.

Honestly of you've never played a souls game I wouldn't get this game because you're just gonna bitch and moan. Go play an older one first or deal with it.

>>334287676
Literally just found out about it from exploring

>>334289460
not really, they are far more complex now and a good deal of gear is locked behind them

I say fuck the no armor upgrades. Total bullshit Miyazaki. You are not a genius. That was just one of the bad ideas from BB that you convinced your team was correct. Armor is only for looks again? Why the hell invest in Vitality. The armor is shit.
>>
>>334289979
Vitality increases your armour scaling

>>334289654
Are you serious?

>find guy
>talk to him exhaust all dialogue
>goes back to firelink
>talk to whenever you get new dialogue
>give book if he's a sorcerer or pyro or fire link lady


The last guy I did you literally just send out to pillage and he comes back with loot, another you just literally died and he gave you 5 free levels. Shit is simple, you must have skipped the DaS and DaS2 questlines which were more annoying.

This game isn't anywhere near as good as Des and Das. It's just a lazily designed cash in. But jesus christ, could it kill you to make a real point against the games flaws? It's not that fucking hard to do.

Is it just me or did the game look fucking incredible in the first third or so and then gradually got more and more unpolished and shit looking?
