Tip for beating the hooded huge axe guys without gun: roll forward into them with no lock on and attack from behind

 

[RoyaleDuke]

Man, this fucking game guys. What a fucking masterpiece! I hope I get the same feeling when I play Witcher 3 and MGSV.


One of the things I love is the insight mechanic, you are basically seeing all this crazy lovecraftian shit and your mind can't possibly make sense of what's going on. You are slowly going insane basically, and becoming more accepting of the ideas and things presented to you as you gain insight, as you spend insight it's like you are coming to grips with what your situation is.

Honestly, I am just amazed by this game and I love the lore I've learned so far kind of just running around confused after

Spoiler

fighting Gascoigne and a bunch of huge axe wielding giant dudes, and another with a wrecking ball for a weapon. The fights in this game are insane, even the minor encounters with the cultists are exciting.

 

[Draper]

Now I can fight like The Crow!

 

[KodaRuss]

First boss is

Spoiler

past the wolves at the end of the bridge. So yes, you have gone too far. Though there is another boss if you keep exploring the sewers.

Thanks, I'll head explore some more tomorrow see if I can Hunt some more prey.

Second boss spoilers

Spoiler

Oh hey Father G isn't too bad, sure he got a little more agress-OH WHAT THE FUCK *dead*

Time to start grinding for bullets ;_;

 

[Demon Lizardman]

Watching Angry Joe plying it. Wonder what score he is going to give the game.

Jesus christ,

Gatling Guy

is wiping the floor with me. His stupid shotgun is wiping out a huge chunk of my health and my hits aren't doing anything.

I guess I'm not ready for him yet but I opened a shortcut underneath him and it didn't lead anywhere...

It leads to

a boss fight

 

[veloxStrix]

Just figured out I can stagger enemies by shooting them. My life has changed.

 

[TimeEffect]

Can someone give me a tiny hint as to where to go after defeating the CB? Boss one..

 

[Fisty]

That is where I am. He decimates me.

Skip the guy if you cant blast him off the roof. There is a path you missed through the shortcut you opened

Spoiler

Explore around the house where you unlocked the shortcut (assuming you unlocked it)

 

[KingV]

Definitely. The first few times I fought him I was trying to get it done quick and dirty. I was going immediately for the eyes (they are the crotch of the face, after all) and figuring I could take him out with a could crits and some moltovs.

Whacking at his ass over a period of 3-4 minutes was much easier.

yeah, I finally whacked him too. Unlocking the shortcut was a big change for me. Helped out alot in letting me farm for souls and making it easy to get to the boss for a few shots at him.

 

[Finalow]

thread is moving so fast, we'll get to OT2 by tomorrow. holy fuck

Spoiler

He's down a side path off of the Grand Cathedral plaza. The password is in a cut scene after Amelia

thank you.
that's really the password?

Spoiler

I honestly didin't notice it during the cutscene, really nice though.

there are much more cutscenes than the other souls games, cool stuff.

 

[Dr Duncan Steel]

Wait there's this armor in the sewer i can find? where?

 

[Ryuzaki07]

Watching Angry Joe plying it. Wonder what score he is going to give the game.

If he completes it, it will most definetly be a ten out of ten.

 

[Barakov]

Just took down

Vicar Amelia

. Didn't expect the boss to start healing. Is my next destination

Hemwick Lane

my next destination?

Yeah, I might ignore

Spoiler

gatling gun guy

for now and just head for the boss. I want to come back later and ruin his day.

 

[nikos]

Second boss down! I feel like I'm on ecstasy.

Game has been easy up until that boss. Think I was under leveled, and I kept screwing up the timing since I'm tired.

 

[FF Seraphim]

Holy shit played for 2.5 hours and somehow got stuck in the sewers pass the

Spoiler

wolves (anyway to beat them easily without Fire?)

, I have clue where I am going but the game is great

 

[Demon Lizardman]

If he completes it, it will most definetly be a ten out of ten.

But that's even if he gets past the first boss.

 

[Vaudeville Villain]

On the back of the bridge, coming from the latern, head Dow the right stairs.

Theres a path in that area that leads into the sewers.

I believe it's when you already have as much as you can carry.

Cleric Beast, after a while the Molotov no longer works.

 

[F0rneus]

That is where I am. He decimates me.

Spoiler

Climb his tower. Shoot him with a pistol as soon as you get to the top, till he falls off his tower. Quit and reload to get his gear. Super easy fight.

 

[flipswitch]

I've lost count of how many times I've respawned from central yharnham or whatever it's called.

 

[RoyaleDuke]

I was thinking about getting the cane but you guys are making me change my mind.
No cane love here ?!
I really wanna use the cane tho .

Noble Scion + Cane is just wrecking the damn game, I love playing with the cane so much I haven't even tried the other weapons.

thread is moving so fast, we'll get to OT2 by tomorrow. holy fuck


thank you.

I'm glad too, From makes amazing cutscenes.

 

[Kinsei]

Wait there's this armor in the sewer i can find? where?

When on the bridge with the wolves there's a side area that you can go into. When there go through some barrels to reveal a pit, and then climb down the ladders to reach the sewer. At this point keep dropping down until you reach the rats and then follow the path to the end.

 

[StylesClash]

Seriously I have come across so many differing opinions. For someone who sucks at these games what is the best origin/weapons to use. I really want to give this a fair shot.

 

[Vaudeville Villain]

Meant to quote you, lol.

See my post above

Hope my directions are sufficient.

I believe it means storage, as in its storing the item in your box since you're stocked.

...that is far simpler than I expected. Went up against him and I got wrecked, could barely scratch him with my cane.

 

[kotor22]

Just $7.80 short of picking this up on PSN (that flash sale was too good! ) gonna be the longest 7 days wait ever to payday, but Im glad to know everyones enjoying it!!

Look around for kind of a lowered sewer type area below the town.

LOL, that's one way to do it.

 

[nikos]

Ugh, my L2 button is getting stuck and the R1 button on my other controller sometimes gets stuck.

Looks like I'm going to have to pick up a third controller.

There's a way to make him your ally if you're wearing the black church outfit, or whatever it's called.

 

[MetroidPrimeRib]

The guy manning the

Spoiler

gatling gun

is the hardest boss so far, and he isn't one.

Any easy way to knock him off?

Spoiler

Where is that?

 

[NEOPARADIGM]

I played for 4 hours and I'm like 5 or 10 minutes in, easily 15 deaths.

This is some Demon's Souls-for-the-first-time shit right here.

I got lost after CB too.

Spoiler

There should be an area near the bridge with a bunch of dogs (some in cages). The next area (sewers) is in that direction.

 

[Lee Chaolan]

Man, co-op is so damn fun. lol.

Boss fights are actually fun, you earn souls for killing them and insight. Really no negatives.

I don't understand why I suddenly lose lock on. It's like I'm locked, I dodge, then suddenly I'm not locked anymore.

Killed the second boss an hour ago. Got hunter garb and got grabbed by some invisible thing. Wtf. :O

Ugh I want to buy this so bad but have spent way too much money on games the last two month. Digital for me. For damn sure.


I think I'll cancel my Batman for this.

I have no idea how the system of retrieving blood echoes works. Sometimes it's where I died, sometimes I have to kill an enemy to retrieve them.

Also, screw

Spoiler

Father G. I found an easy way to dodge him by keeping the graves between us, but that third form...

 

[Netherscourge]

I feel like after I spend all my Blood Echoes on leveling up and upgrading weapons, I am a lot more confident playing suicidal because I don't have anything to lose!

The enemies can pick it up and become possesed. You'll notice their eyes are glowing.
