Can you specify where exactly you're talking about here? Because I don't want to fall for that either.

Want to go with the Knight class but alittle scared because of no shield..
I don't have any issues with the weight or impact of hits. That stuff feels okay enough to me. There are some recovery times on attack animations though that weren't there in previous games, so it sort of feels less fluid.
As far as ADP, it's just refreshing being able to roll around more smoothly after boosting it a bit.

Are there any performance deferences between disc and download on ps3?
I get this Undead Burg vibe from it as well.

The feeling of impact is definitely still there. Especially with the new shield/guard break mechanic.
quick question regarding the cartographer's weird house:
a simple yes or no answer is all I'm looking for - if there is a secret I kinda want to figure it out myself!
there's this open space in the basement with a white'ish floor, looks kinda melted? there was a message about something something illusion but you'll break your gear or something - is there some event I have to trigger? or just crazy talk by a random user?
The frame rate on ps3 version is soooo bad. I'm having fun but i'm really starting to regret not waiting for pc version. Its just noticeable all the time. You can be walking in a small area with no enemies and still see the frame rate drop. I would have been embarrassed to release a game with frame dips this bad. They seriously should have lowered the resolution or graphics or something.
Don't worry about it, shields are easy to come across.
3 bosses down, working on the fourth now. This game is so damn good. It's kicking my ass and I love it.
Strange, it's not bothering me. I feel it runs and plays better than the first one so far.

So I accidentally burned a human effigy and I can't use the White Soapstone, there's a White Soapstone symbol beneath my endurance bar. How do I reverse the effect?

My first death in dark souls 2 was to the little doggies in the tutorial before you create your character lol.

Is it just me or can you no longer "pierce" enemies. All of my attacks will only hit one enemy at a time.

Holy shit. Character creation is completely unresponsive (ps3).

I've already died numerous times. Geeeeeeez this game is hard but I love it.
One might have thought that they'd be able to produce a video without many spoilers. At least I did

Weird, those guys never even attacked me. They seem content to hang out in their thicket so long as I don't get too close.
Got up to 20ADP after beating the first boss. Feels faster and more responsive now, at least while dodging.
Surprised to see that it doesn't turn you back to human... kinda wish it did.
I came across the Champion's covenant altar by Majula, did I miss any others around there?

I got about 2 hours in after work, but I probably should take the rest of the night off from playing.
Came close to beating
on my first and second attempts, it'll probably only take me a few more to get it. I need a break though.
Can't wait for the weekend when I can just forget about other stuff and really dive into the game.

@SeventhSon7777 attack em enough and they all gang up on you. Managed to kill one but the rest got me.

lol, yeah, you're a 14 year old anime character all of a sudden.
Why the combat feels slightly off:
-the animation is worse, both artistically and technically
-the sound design is worse, both artistically and technically
-the framerate (and possibly gameplay logic?) is no longer running in a locked and stable fashion, so even in areas where the average performance is better, everything feels less precise and reliable, including camera movement and item switching.
Honestly I regret buying the PS3 version, every area of this game has less a reliable feeling of control than even the worst sections of Dark Souls on the PS3. I'm expecting the better framerate of the PC version to improve things enough that I'll be able to rely on nimble play again instead of just memorizing everything and coming up with foolproof strategies, although artistically this game will still be just not quite comparable to the original.

I long had my doubts about the game being as tough as it was in the first games to appease the casuls and kiddies. Boy was I wrong. This is noticeably tougher than Dark Souls. I'm getting totally wrecked :lol
Go by the tower but don't climb the ladder up there, and instead jump
Found the Chloranthy Ring and a Titanite Slab.
Same. As a question on this, I'm not entirely sure what happened to open that.
I put the device in the wall, and saw the blue ghost face or whatever appear on the other wall in the room. Nothing else seemed to happen, and I thought that maybe I needed to light the sconce in the room. So I left, and I came back later with a lit torch and the blue ghost face was gone and there was open archway there with the two chests past it. Did you just have to leave and then come back/reload for that to appear or what? I'm not entirely sure what happened.

Your corpse doesn't disappear if you turn off the game, does it?

It shouldn't.

It was an
illusory wall behind the ghost face thing. I suppose they open it up anyways just in case the player doesn't hit the wall after activating the device.
it was an illusionary wall, you just had to roll into it or hit it with a weapon to reveal the opening. I wonder if it's there either way, could've saved one of those pharris stone-thingies. :/

Was watching the GB QL, does anyone know where I can listen to the music from Majula? Sounded tragically beautiful, like Clint Mansell.

It doesn't open up before you put the lockstone in, as far as I can tell. There was an illusory wall message on the floor, so I spent some time punching that general area before I used the stone.
My favorite ring. Me want.

Nevermind just went for it, figured it out.
It's not there unless you use the stone
