I need to get back into it.

You haven't finished Dark Souls?

It's so weird beating the game in a day, then watching the slow progress of someone who's never played it.

Nooooope, I just haven't been able to play at all because college. Because when I play, I don't just play--I'm recording and taking notes and shit, so I know exactly what to say for each update. It's just been hard lately.

Looks like it's up to me to provide a Dark Souls playthrough for the community

That would be cool, actually. Can you record stuff?

Hey Verb, if you wanna co op sometime I can help you

No, I'm fine. It's literally just a scheduling issue--the game itself isn't giving me trouble, really.

I could totally just play the game and not update my thread at all, but I don't think that would be as fun.

I'd be down for PvP though, I guess. That's something I should try out to get the full experience or whatever.

You think so? I don't think anybody gives a shit about me playing anything. The point was that you after saying you'd never ever play it are now doing a playthrough.

Also I'd have to record with my phone so

oh, yeah, that wouldn't be very good

I think people would be interested though just because--and Ember just made a thread about this--no one really knows a whole lot about you personally, so a video game playthrough would be a good opportunity to not only open up a little bit, but also just to allow people to see you from a different angle. I dunno, I'd be interested.

but yeah not on a phone though lmao

I wasn't suggesting you needed help, I just really enjoy the co op. I'm fucking terrible at pvp

Right, fair enough. I think I'm fairly close to beating the game at the moment, so if I ever want to do the DLC or a second playthrough or whatever, I'll ring you up.

I'm sure you can't be worse than me at PvP, given that I know literally nothing about it.

This was by far the hardest Souls/Borne boss I have ever fought

It's so funny to me how people experience the game differently. That boss is seriously cake. As soon as you figure out how to parry him you can run through him.




This motherfucker made me seriously consider suicide. I actually stopped playing the game for three months because of him.

That would be better, I have a character thats around lvl 80 and just started NG+ so should be good

He was way too aggressive for me. After the Ebrietas, Watchdog and Amygdala fights I thought the worst was over but then this R1 spamming motherfucker gave me the worst time. The Headless Bloodletting beast was a pushover.

I've struggled with beating every Souls game after DaS1. Not out of difficulty, but I either start to dislike the game after a point (DaS2) or the atmosphere creeps me out too much (Bloodborne).

Probably should try digging my heels in and trying anyway, but it would just be a chore at that point.

Play Bloodborne with someone. Helps ease the tension. Fisting pigs also provides some release.

I don't mean that it creeps me out in a 2spoopy way, I just hate looking at spiders. They're just revolting.

Queelag doesn't put me off for some reason, though. The hairy legs make me shiver, but the face isn't duper spidery.

That's when I stopped playing.

The ones that don't attack are even creepier.

Wanna know what's worse?

Gosh, seeing those dudes everywhere after beating Rom really unsettled me. It made me realize what a dire situation the world was in, and if what I was doing would even amount to anything.

I tried

Early in Bloodborne I head Septy say "oh. I just died. Somethimg grabbed me from the air." Never stood still anywhere afterwards unless it was by a lamp. After killing Rom the whole game makes me uneasy. Those amygdalas and the purple sky... I had to detour to Cainhurst because Unseen Village is 2spooky.

Have you made it to the Yahargul Chapel lamp yet? The bit after that is fucking irritating.

I can't wait to eventually add Demon's to my list

It irritates me that people focus on the difficulty so much. I blame the marketing, they REALLY pushed the fact that the game is challenging. Whenever a new game was released, all people focused on was the fact that it was hard.

Like yeah, ignore the combat and exploration and lore and characters. Go ahead and promote the difficulty a bit more.

I really dig the theory that the blood moon, in addition to the amygdala(s), was present from the start but hidden by insight. Really puts into perspective how fucked the world is.
