First DS3 dlc was pretty short. And what only 2 bosses? You mean 4 good bosses and 1 shitty? Living Failures was the only poor boss in that DLC. For me anyways

The Living Failures at least had a good music theme.
YouTube Video Placeholder And yeah, it was 4 good bosses and 1 lackluster boss. Though honestly, I didn't find Lady Maria to be very difficult, but man did she have an intense amount of style. Eh. Just felt like poking in. Have a rather large chunk of free time since I'm on break from FFXI to take care of real life issues at the moment. Beat DS3 a week or so ago and waiting for all 3(?) DLC's to be released before I commit to spending dollars on them...
I'm in the minority of people that actually liked DS2. I'll go back into my dark corner now. Well... I started Bloodbourne... Not having a shield to fall back on is frustrating.
Strike hard, strike fast, kill'em before they kill you! You're the hunter, not the hunted! RAWR

It wouldn't be so off-putting if the lock on function didn't lock out rolling. The short distance sidestep is... lacking. Guess it's just my bad reaction time then.

randomly hopped on the site today and saw this forum. My friend kept talking about dark souls II while i was telling him about FFXV for weeks. Finally after hearing about it i loaded up Dark Souls and omg its so fun but such a *** >.< lol i finally beat the first one, but now i cant find a copy of DSII in town :/ not paying the 40 dollar digital fee so i guess ill wait!

But it's not a fee, that's the price. Hahaha.
So just beat Blood Starved Beast and Vicar Amelia... Gosh these two kicked the piss outta me for the last couple days...
When in doubt, abide by the age-old RPG rule: Over level until they can't kill you so easily. BSB is one of those you kind of learn over time I feel, generally speaking, even the me who hasn't played Bloodborne for quite a while now will still beat BSB taking minimal damage.
Sylph.Brahmsz said: » Well... I started Bloodbourne... Not having a shield to fall back on is frustrating. Like 95% of the time when I die in Bloodborne it's because I'm trying to hard to avoid damage. Go balls deep into the mob on damage or go home is the name of the game in Bloodborne. It's not really trying to avoid damage that is bad. It's trying to create space that's bad. Bosses can and will close gaps and punish back dashes like crazy. And will do so until you learn your lesson.

And will do so until you learn your lesson. Yeah, that's a problem for me. I like having a buffer between me and an enemy so I can set up my next attack with more room for error. "Dodge or Die" mechanics have never been appealing to me. (which is half the reason I stopped playing FFXIV) Even though I loved the Souls series as a whole, my thinking has always been: Why bother dodging if I can put on the heaviest armor and shield possible, eat a hit and smack the ever loving f*ck out of whatever is in my way and then keep moving forward. Since there doesn't seem to be heavy armor so far I've just been sinking points into HP so I don't die as quickly lmao. |
