There has to be a solution. I don't want to buy a new TV when I just bought a PS4. Does a cable with aux input and with the red and white things not exist?
i would guess that you probably need an optical -> analog converter if you can't send audio over the hdmi -> dvi cable (i've been doing that for years from dvi to hdmi with my pc to my receiver, but don't know if it works the other way from a ps4)
Alright I wanted to go hardcore and went straight to
Father whatever
without leveling up. I am doing OK, but I'm having trouble staggering him
once he switches to that axe style with huge reach and spams lunge at me.
I really need to understand these stagger mechanics better. Does anyone feel like they have a solid grip on them? I'm using the pistol right now because it's description says that it is better for fast riposting. But I am wondering if I ought to be using the Blunderbuss instead? Also, I'm getting very frustrated because sometimes
I hit this dude just as he's lunging, and he still doesn't stagger
. Is there some % chance built into the stagger mechanics, and if I upgrade a stat, I will have a better chance at having it trigger?
Holy fuck, I summoned the NPC for the 3rd boss. Dude took like 3 grabs and still lived. I had used like 5+ insights for help and couldn't beat him till now. Thank you oh NPC.
Practice makes perfect.
No matter what you do, mastering the mechanics is more important than raw level
Have fun
Don't be afraid to ask for help.
If at first you don't succeed die, die again!
Ive fought my way through all sorts of paths and haven't found a boss or a lantern yet... after multiple deaths i realized you could kill the thing that killed you for your blood back. Exploring was not a good idea. Nothing to show for 2 hours of playing.
Just woke up, 9 hours of sleep after my 20 hour BB marathon did me good , can't belive how quickly this thread moves we will hit OT2 in the next 24 hours lol.
This is what I'm struggling with while playing. I've went completely 2-handed for my weapon, so using the gun, at least for how I want to play, sucks. I just can't dodge his beast form fast enough. Extremely frustrated with this fight.

If there's someone out there who doesn't mind spoiling the Trophy list for this game, would you mind copy and pasting it inside some spoiler tags and PMing it to me?
I don't want to look at it, but I'd like to add it to the OT in spoiler tags.
Wow I'm an idiot. 3 bosses in, I got back to central Yarnham to make my way to check and see if I could find that girl... there's a guy who gives you a flamesprayer right next to that lantern.
Yeah i know where I've been, but i took a path, died, took another path seeing what was that way, died etc. If i had just gone back i wouldn't be sitting in a measly 1k blood echoes. Too many secret paths distracting me!
One thing I'm missing from the game that were in Souls games are equipment and costume drops from enemies. Even if a lot of them were useless stat-wise I loved reading all the descriptions that gave a little context and weird stuff about the enemies you just wasted; especially when the game has amaaaazing looking enemies. And dressing up with artifacts from my fallen victims is something I enjoyed doing in Souls titles.
The thing that I love with the bosses is how they constantly keep you guessing. At one point you'll feel comfortable and ready to finish the job and then the next they're hitting you with poison attacks.

Just wanted to say I'm in the same boat as you, and I've played through the ENTIRE game. (got it early).
The parry system is oddly specific as to what (and when) you can actually stagger. In my experience all the guns, pistol styles, shotgun styles, all stagger at the same rate. I tried em all, and ended up simply ignoring the entire mechanic. I'd love to test it all out on some dummy enemies but because everything you fight is unique this wouldn't be effective either. It's sort of trial and error to see what you can stagger.
It's a fun weapon. Not nearly as OP as the axe, but it staggers all day and that charged swing hits like a motherfucker. The sword is nice too, especially comboing it into the hammer.
I'm sorry but I'm not in the game ATM :// So I'm getting those directions from my memory. Just go back if you're afraid of losing your money. You don't lose any items if you die though ...
I'm assuming it's because of the Hunter's Mark. You "consume" it to get back to the Hunter's Dream at the expense of all the Blood Echoes you have collected.
