/dsg/ - Demon's/Dark Souls General

What does Filianore's butt smell like?

*autistic thrashing intensifies*

The leaping attack on Ringed Knight Spear is baller as fuck.

eggs

So, how is Kadokawa compared to Bamco? Will they let FROM finish a game?

It's a shame it can be parried.

WHY WASNT HIS BEARD ADDED TO CHARACTER CUSTOMIZATION

youtube.com/watch?v=mcrLkwIfXLU

Well the skrubs in Earthen Peak don't know that

really? it's so fucking shit i literally had to set music to volume 2. especially during bossfights that shitty chink choir chanting is annoying af.

Hand it over. That thing, your Dark Soul™

Burnt ashes and broken promises.

ass

it is if you bought the collector's edition

Midir.

Ringed City design process: oh shit, we forgot to add stuff from DS2 in the main game.

WHATS THE SECOND BEST NON CURVED GREAT SWORD PLS
MY CARTHUS CURVED GREATSWORD IS WORTHLESS NOW

good but please don't shill your stuff on here

Is this also supposed to be Midir, or is it unused?

Maybe it's not so bad that From memed Dark Souls into the ground entirely because now with how burned out I am by it, it doesn't even hurt to let go.

Do you think she ate the whole bowl?

with her ass

that's everything right?

>respawn church spear
>it's halflight
Is the covenant really that dead already?

Can someone explain how the Ringed Knight SS works?

it has like 400 normal damage + 20 fire in longsword form.

In it's WA it adds X damage, but it seems to consist entirely of fire damage as it takes MORE hits to kill something that in regular form. This seems really convoluted. I tried making sure I was hitting with the blade portion of the sword too in case something was screwy there, and it's still the same. Sometimes it takes 5-6 hits to kill something instead of 4 in the normal form. The WA does less damage because it is converted into entirely fire damage. Fromsoft makes weird decisions.

Midir has four wings, I don't think it's supposed to be him.

Sabre.

If you respawn Halflight, do you get another titanite slab?

>be level 68
>trying to do NG+ Dancer
>find a summon sign outside Vordt
>summon him, start running up
>he immediately BCs out
I mean, I appreciate that he didn't wait until I'd started the fight to leave, but if you put your sign down at that level, you've gotta expect that people will be trying to get you to do the level-appropriate encounter.

It seems like a lot of people really don't like this game at all, but are still here.
Like, a lot.
What keeps you around?

From not finishing games is more to do with their own poor project management skills than Bamco rushing them (Except for what happened with DS2, that was all Bamco)

They need a babysitter to stay on track.

>the expression on these guys

The WA form does less damage because it has poise frames during it making it useful for trading with smaller weapons.

No.

they did the same thing for DaS2 (however much they try to deny it), it's normal

thanks friend

curved greatsword user. i haven't even begun the dlc, i just returned to the game.

none of that exile shit

Maybe he BC'ed because it was NG+

>there's a ringed knight in the final area who drops a slab

Completely missed it.

We're simply crestfallen

>before the fight, a bloody dude crawling on the ground beckons for help
>the boss fights like a mindless beast and makes terrible moaning noises
>in the second phase the boss stands up right and fights coherently

What boss am I talking about?

yes

Good changes DaS2 made that FROM removed in 3 for some retarded reason

>Ascetics to respawn bosses
>Able to use a weapons full moveset in the left hand
>Powerstance
>Upgrading shields improved their stats, not just the stability
>Depleting your stamina caused your character to breathe heavily
>You didn't lose your momentum from falling down 2 feet
>Poise wasn't as retarded as in 1 or as useless as in 3
>Fun NPC invaders/summons that didn't act like just another enemy
>Interacting with the environment unlocked secrets, like lighting all the sconces in The Gutter, and the pig and pickaxe
>Lockstones manipulated the environment
>Getting wet reduced your characters lightning RES while boosting your fire RES
>NG+ added new enemies and items
>rolling in poison made your poison build up continue even on dry land because you were still covered in it
>rolling in snow/poison/water covered you in it and it slowly disappeared
>You could activate several pools of blood at once, resulting in hilarity
>You could be invaded even while hollow and if the boss was dead, but at a lower chance
>You could burn an effigy to block invaders, but you blocked summons as well
>Poison builds were not only viable, they were useful
>White phantoms couldn't Estus with an invader in the world
>Small soapstones if you wanted help with the area before a boss, without having to BC to solo the boss
>Drinking Estus in a fight was a gamble thanks to the slow speed
>Twinblades
>Lances weren't just spears
>Fists were viable
>Corrosive urns, so you didn't need pyro to break equipment
>Chests could be broken, making hitting them to see if it's a mimic risky
>Trapped chests
>Attacking with no stamina made the swing slow, making stamina management more important

Rapehorse

What level?

The bloated dogs were really fucking gross, honestly.
It's like the Mass of Souls from 1, I was glad neither of them were too common.

Ludwael of Kos

Why are the original humans specifically revered to as pygmies? Aren't pygmies/hollows just the default state of everyone without a soul?

No, it scales off of STR, but for some dumbass reason it basically gains whatever magic buff you put on your right hand weapon. So you get 60 INT and use it to cast GMW or CMW on your main weapon and it basically doubles it's damage, it's weird but good.

This is what it looks like when you go full-on INT (60) with the hat and magic clutch ring instead of 66 STR with minimum (15) INT for GMW

Wow dude you might be the first person to make that parallel
Should we call vaati?

no problem

Gael, the bloody dude in Ludwig doesn't crawl and just writhes in the bloody pile

Harald is the second best Curved GS now and is available at the start of the DLC past the second bonfire.

Kumo or Carthus CGS are good stand-ins until then.

the overleveling for pve and jolly cooperation with different builds.

Gael? Ludwig?

Fuck

>the dog with the huge ball sack
Why did they only ever decide to put one of this guy in the game? Same with the scythe Pontiff K***ht.

>Brought Gael to the pygmy crawling away in the last area
>Gael ignores him completely

I thought something interesting would happen but I guess that was hoping for too much.

i-is that an NPC?

He wouldn't know that though, I hadn't started the fight.

This shit's been done to death by now, everyone knows.

aw thats a shame. i really like the weapon art for the kumo. the carthus one seems to whiff a lot of its hits

Murakumo is the best non-exile CGS. Not only is it light af but it's also incredibly stylish, sleek, and sexy. Cool dudes use Murakumo, faggots shove their big exile buttplug up their own asses.

can you parry frayed blade weapon art R2?

You fucking retard, you never drag people away from the door their sign is in that area. If anything, he should have followed you up to the door and then sat outside dropping Gough carvings as Dancer slaughtered your ass.

He already slurped his soul through his neck.

no, shit

No but you can parry WAR1 if you're right in front of them as they do the vertical strike.

I wonder how much of that is entirely thanks to the neato engine DaS2 had.

...

Did you know you can use two?

Yeah, well, y'know, that's just, like, your opinion, man.

where's the kalameet one

Yes, DaS2 wasn't all bad.

isn't it the longest one? i haven't even booted up the game in so long

Gael's crossbow or sword?

I know sword is the obvious choice but perhaps the machinegun is redeemable in some way.

Yes

Yes, the best along with Boyd&Glencour

Everyone's like that.

how did you guys beat le 1 shot dragon of running away? it could be because i'm ng+++ but i'm almost no damage but he can kill me in 2 hits. hitting his leg does even less damage and hitting his belly is almost pointless because he flies away instantly

this is a huge pain in the ass. i'd rather not summon since it'd just make him even tankier. aside from headshots, is there a weakness he has?

thicc

For a moment I thought this was from the artbook.

Oh my Gwyn, Jim, you can't just call people "hollows"

Fun fact: Jester Thomas pulls out a sword when you cast Profound Still.

As opposed to that dumbass Kriemhild, who just stands there scratching her head during Vow of Silence.

Guys what is the good lvl for end-game invasions after both DLC's?

I had gggggggreat invasions in Lothric Castle at 80 lvl, if I plan to invade in DLC, should I lvl up or leave it as it is?

Is the Nameless King hollow?

Kek. Some people keep dragging me away from the Spears to go fight Midir and everytime I oblige and everytime I die.

very. no longer a god

80-90. At around 100+, I saw decreased activity.

he uses the generic hollow model yes

i'm literally painting space marines, friend

you're gonna be there for a while
