Am i playing this wrong? Some of my friends said if my first playthrough isnt a sword/board im not playing it right. I tried using a shield but just didn't like it, should i tell them fuck off? Been having a good time regardless though, just recently beat OnS and 4kings.

Play it however you want, however pyromancy and magic tend to make it easier

>>331046680
no if you are progressing than you aren't really doing it wrong. My first "souls" game was bloodborne so I quite like being able to roll and dodge rather than use a shield. There are a couple of boss fights where you might wanna have a shield though

Play how you want, even if it's retarded unga-bunga caveman shit like your pic. Also, grow a spine faggot.
>>
tell them to fuck off

I think they rused you.

You can't play the game wrong, but people tend to suggest sword 'n' board because it's easier. My first playthrough I only used two handed weapons as well and had a good time.

You're playing the best style OP, fuck your scrub friends

How long until Golden Joysitck dishes out the free Dark Souls key they promised a week ago?

As long as you don't put points into res, you are doing fine

Personally I went with sword, two-handed sword, massive hammer, Crossbow and shield all at once for my first playthrough. That way you can switch up your tactics on the fly.

If you're enjoying it who cares what you do?

Sword&board is not necessary, but you shouldn't do caster or ranged builds.

The only wrong way to play is with a guide.
The club is GOAT though so keep using it.

>using FaP ring

by no means do i feel like FaP ring is bad, its just more that it locks you out of a ring slot.

Dark Souls is one of those games that get easier as you play it, because you get better at the game as you do. There isn't necessarily a "wrong" way to play, but playing with a style that youre not used to, or uncomfortable with just means learning another playstyle altogether makes it a little more difficult.

Why do people consider this a hard game? Have they never played an "online" game on their lives?

Well its BiS so it doesn't really matter.

I don't think someone who is playing DaS1 cares about how flexible DaS2 is.

What DS build should I play with for a new playthrough while I wait for DS3? I thinking something with strength, never ran one before.

What settings were you using when you took that screenshot? Downsampling?

Even maxed out at 1080p with a bunch of stuff tweaked in nvidia inspector, I just can't seem to get that level of antialiasing...

Sounds like you just answered your own question.

Its more of its a game that doesn't hold your hand, that also has intricate level design for the most part. Most people die from platforming issues or getting greedy anyways, or learning a boss' attacks.
