The second he made a post in this thread I had a feeling an argument would start.

Verbatim in a nutshell.

Jacob Potila was actually a Jacob Flotilla of lies.- WarTurkey
err lost sinner probs

Her attacks are so easy to dodge I don't get why people found her difficult, same with The Rotten.

THE ROTTEN. LIKE THE EASIEST BOSS IN DS2.

I beat the Rotten on my second try, but I consider it a more difficult boss than most of the others.
You can circle strafe pretty much every other boss in the game and destroy them without losing any health, but if you even get close to the Rotten you're dead -it doesn't matter if you're blocking because he burns through your stamina.
And then there's those burning pools of shit everywhere in his arena.

The AOE is the only one that gets me. I'm using him to farm, got the bonfire on +6 right now :p

The angel agreed to trade a set of white wings for the head of another demon. Overjoyed, the demon killed one of his own and plucked the head right off its still-warm body.

The angel then led the demon to heaven, where he underwent centuries of the cruelest tortures imaginable. Finally, the pain was so great that he lost consciousness - at which point his dark wings turned the promised shade of white.
Oh was Lost Sinner considered hard? I beat it on my first try both in NG+ and first play trough

A salt Rifle
People say that she was difficult to beat at release.

IMO she was just hitting hard, but her attacks were easy to dodge to compensate.

Yeah I noticed that too. I don't think any of his attacks are one hit kills anymore.

Still used a Gyrm greatshield to be cheap and get it over with though haha, he is not fun at all to fight.

You mean like this? Only I was new and didn't know about the stab thing so I ended up doing it the long way.
I saw the message that told me to run, so I ran. But only after the first few times it killed me. I figured, even if I could kill it, I probably wouldn't get anything, because the game wants me to run.

So, bad game design. No matter how you look at it.

False. The game wants you to think and be resourceful, not just some retard idiot fuck who needs to be hand-fed information like yourself. You seem like someone that needs big fat signs everywhere pointing where to go rather than figuring it out like an intelligent human being.

Death is a core mechanic in the game
death isn't a mechanic, that's just silly

a mechanic is something that performs some kind of function
what exactly is the function of death beyond a penalty for your fuck ups

you could argue that death is a core mechanic in all video games--i don't think dark souls is special, just because it happens more often, just because the game tries too hard to be tough

False. Those are hints and suggestions, not detailed instructions. Plus, you can skip over them entirely. They are not the game developers holding your pussy-juice covered hand.

Knock it off the pair of you, any further shit after the courtesy two minute grace period = warning time.

Pair of us? I'm merely expressing an opinion. Maybe you should ban the person who's been harassing me nonstop for the past few months? Yeah, that's probably a better plan.

If by expressing you mean posting the same comment over and over and over again for the last page, sure.

Midget - Stop baiting verbatim
Verbatim - Stop spamming the place up with 'Dark Souls sucks'

Oh and the grace period is now up, so good luck avoiding the hammer if you continue now.

I would wager that every single Dark Souls boss is much easier than most people tout them to be, and are only considered "hard" because of some form of this trope (because, based on the very short amount of time that I've bothered to play it, Dark Souls is an extremely unintelligently-designed game).

I extend that to the entire series.
