SO I never played a souls game before and wanted to

Started with dark souls 1. how do I get good guy? Im being serious its fun but damn I dont know where to go or how to get good.
>>
Start with Demon's Souls.
>>
Try going to the ____git gud______
>>
Keep your sheild up, circle strafe, put your sheild down, backstab.
>>
Odds are you're not going to understand anything your first time playing around

Find a guide to explain builds, pick one, play it through

Once you get a feel for how things work you won't need to rely on guides as much later on, though there are some really obscure things you'd have probably never discovered without them.

But Bloodborne is the best souls anything.
>>
>>334936270
Clearly you haven't even played DeS

DaS3 = DaS > DeS > BB > DaS2

Play them all, they each have something to offer. Demon's Souls is a little clunky but it sets the stage for the series. Most people agree that Dark Souls is by far the best because of it's incredible atmosphere and sense of progression, although quality drops off VERY steep after the last linear area. Dark Souls II gets a bad rap but other than the shitty story, world design, and SHOCKWAVES it's alright. Can't say much for Bloodborne or Dark Souls III but from what I've seen they're just the natural progression of the series.

Demon's Souls and Bloodborne are the only relative good games in this pathetic excuse of a series.
>>
just play cod games op
>>
>>334936529
I think Demon's was really somthing else at the time but these days its really nothing special. The enemies are really pathetic and the boss fights are worse. For every cool boss like Old King Allant you get 3 lame bosses like Leech Monger or Trashman.

Im in a similar boat, keep at it and you'll get better
I got stuck and dropped it for a while then I came back at it with a new gameplan and progressed significantly
This helped somewhat

>muh exclusives
>>
The best way is just to play the game. Stop reading /v/ and just play it. You'll be fine.

>>334937014
Exclusives beat the vapid, recycled content of Faggot Souls 1-3
>>
>>334937134
Can you learn things like what "faith" does by playing the game or will i have to look it up. If i can learn everything by playing then ill do that.
>>
>>334937161
Why don't you eat your Dark Souls disc, than shoot it with a shotgun while it's in your mouth?
>>
>>334937242
I pretty sure you can read what it does on the menu.

I thought it was a lot more memorable than any of the DaS games.

>>334937338
Alright, let me rephrase it.

Get a better taste in games, then kill yourself.

How to get good in DS1
>Get strength to 24 to equip zweihander
>infuse it with lightning
>level vit and endurance to 99
>equip havel armor
Congrats, you beat meme souls, now play Demon and BB.
>>
>>334937569
The only thing that's cringe is how you assume I'm a sony fanboy when I never even mentioned my likes for sony.

Go kill yourself. Demon's Souls and Bloodborne are the only good games those lazy weebshits have made since nearly five years.

you can stop baiting now
>>
Right when you start go get the Black Knight Halberd and get it to +5 as soon as you can. You will breeze through most bosses
>>
>>334937850
If That's bait, you probably cut yourself whenever someone doesn't want to be your friend.

Go play some good games for once and not be an emo weeaboo.
>>
>>334937993
why do sonybabies always resort to violence?
>>
>>334936119
Souls series has nothing to do with really being good besides a few bosses in BB/DaS3 and maybe Fume Knight/OnS.

The rest of the games just involve making good decisions that are usually fucking obvious in the first place. You get killed for being impatient/reckless but its not hard to avoid these things since there is rarely pressure to stray from being patient.

>>334938115
Because I'm not a sonybaby, and people who support terrible gaming companies need a dose of Zyklon B

>Kill the dogs first

Lol that's some serious "when the time is right... you'll know" level shit.

Roll roll stab

Where's the cheapest place to get DSIII from now? GMG has it at $50, is this the best i'll get it for?
>>
>>334940334
pirate it.

How good is pyromancy in DS3?
>>
>>334936908
Sounds like my experience with Dark3 honestly. The pvp healing is just as bad, too.
