The regular halberd is the fastest hitting one. Gargoyle helps with poison/curse/bleed. I find the Great Scythe unusable outside of pvp. I've said before that BKH is the best pve weapon.

But what if I want to play without that trait? Any race can pick that up so I don't know how it's an argument.

Yep, the Vulfar don't have their Titan either, so I've just modded them to get another race's.

He deleted his Dark Souls video because it was shit, and now he's not sure he can do it justice. He's clarified his opinion in the meantime calling it a very important game and a disgraceful port for...

But what about the abysmal party member AI? Did they fix that?

Connectivity on PC has sucked since release. DSCfix made it better but both parties need to have that mod installed and have each other as friends, so it's not that useful for random summoning.

Hah you don't need transient curses for 4kids, and yeah the Lord Soul bosses are very easy. Maybe the next 3 DLC bosses will challenge you again.

I find myself agreeing with most everything gundato said in this thread and even though all of my disposable income goes towards games, I still pirate stuff. The reason for that is living in the ass...

The Bed of Chaos is the only boss I'd classify as "artificial difficulty", and even she has a pattern you can learn and exploit. It seems every Souls game needs to have a gimmicky puzzle boss that...

The claymore 2HR1s were nerfed a while ago for pvp balance which was unfortunate but I don't think there's anything else in the middle there. Maybe halberds?

Oh irony!

Actually dark magic doesn't work very well against the DLC bosses other than the guardian, so regular soul magic is better in that case.

All the DLC bosses have high resistances so pure physical damage is the way to go. Everything else needs to be supercharged (duck crown, spell damage ring, red tearstone or power within) to make a...

If the devs "had no intention" then they wouldn't have put offline mode in! But they aren't braindead and they realised internet connections aren't a given for a console. That's why Diablo 3 will be...

That isn't a good comparison. The SP and MP of CoD are completely different games, often with different exes even. Da/DeS use the same areas in coop/pvp as SP.

That is what I mean by opt out. I don't think you know what always online is then. If you pull the internet cable out of the PS3 you can still play the game. That is not always online. Stop.

Holy shit gundato, for the last time. Dark Souls even on PS3 is not always online. It is Opt-out. If your internet goes out while online, it kicks you to the main menu without any loss in progress...

Yea ENB has some well argumented theories and he really digs deep in the lore.

I thought it was obvious all the lands rest on trees and Ash Lake is the path to take between them.That's how Sieglinde comes to Lordran from Catarina at least, since she's one of the few non-undead...

I also find anything after NG very dull. I'd rather restart with a new character and playstyle, and impose some restrictions on myself for a similar experience. Stuff like base vitality, or no...

Yes there is:
You need to join the Daughters of Chaos covenant, level that up to 2(you get Chaos Firestorm as a reward), and then open the shortcut to the right side of the Demon Firesage fog wall...

The first patch is out already and it looks to be on the right track:

The Brothers in Arms games were decent I thought. Maybe the same kind of approach would work with small spaceship squadrons? Just trying to see a positive in this.

I'm late but the BKH is the speedrunners' weapon of choice. It's basically the best PvE weapon so you can't go wrong with it. Slap on Leo Ring and watch Manus go down like a sack of potatoes.

Vanilla game without DSfix only knows either 30 fps, or 15 when it dips. You can unlock framerate and set it to 30 for the game to cope with inbetween those 2.
