Ugh, it got me. Big spoiler too.

 

[Augemitbutter]

vic am was such an easy boss. the camera kills me in this game more than anything else. it just doesn't work for me on large stuff, especially when they try to obscure your view with lametta.

 

[T.O.P]

Also, holy damn at that difficulty spike O_O

is this the difficulty spike people talk about?

 

[JimPanzer]

last few bosses easiest of the whole game - yep, it's a souls game.

NG+ hits hard though. So cool to see how much you have improved when fighting the bosses a 2nd time. Got Cleric Beast NG+ down on my first attempt altough he took much more strikes than on my first playthrough.

 

[AmethystEnd]

I had the final boss spoiled multiple times over just do to posts like

"jeez

Spoiler

blatantly final boss name

sure is tough"

A post like that can be an hour into the game or 30, nobody knows until they click on it.

Yeah, I just haven't bothered reading those. Or posts like:

"Yeah, so this was cool: youtube link."

Sidenote: Really, really glad your spoiler tag wasn't an actual spoiler because I quoted you without thinking and saw the contents.

Bosses having attacks that home in on you is frustrating lol

He's a lot harder to parry though (some attacks can't be parried at all actually) and he's got a wider moveset.

Gascoigne was harder? But he's like an easier version of the final boss.

Yeah, but the boss makes a move that blocks the shot to parry right? you have to time it right. Lost a few times with the boss's health being 10% :S

Died twice on the 2nd boss even with someone trying to help me lol. Lost 8k souls...grrr lol

Heads up. Don't go looking on web articles for what the badges do, ask here on GAF.

One of the articles had a huge spoiler/twist spoiled to me regarding one of the badges, I can imagine the other articles spoil it too.

Thanks for the heads up. I was assuming all of them just did the same thing as the first one.

Man I love this game, probably more than Dark souls already. Just loving the style and atmosphere. Only started properly yesterday since I was on vacation till two days ago. Managed to beat the second boss and made some good progress after but I'm stumped on what to do in Old Yarnham. Dude in the tower keeps wrecking me.

If you have any poison throwing knifes you can just sit back and watch it slowly kill them.

You can either

play it like a cover shooter, make it to him and kill him (or leave him), you can go past him without fighting

or

Ignore this area for now and come back with the Black Church armor set which apparently makes him friendly. I don't know firsthand. I murdered him.

I'm pretty sure it's progress related. Some items opened up for me after I cleared certain bosses.

I thought this was pretty much the only way forward from the Tomb. Guess I go back to exploring again. The left way from the Tomb seemed

Go up higher in the Cathedral than that. There are actually two other ways you can go from there. But the 2nd thing I was talking about is found in the Cathedral, so you wouldn't need to go too far any way.

Also, going to warn against doing this. I became curious about how to get the scythe because I remembered seeing one during pre-release footage. Don't do it.

Is it like Jigglypuff sleep in Smash bros, where it's really tight timing and you're fucked if you miss? That'd be appropriate.

You know what moment I'm talking about? When you're playing the game and really enjoying it, to the point where you suddenly get this thought: "Hmm, I'm really enjoying this as much as I did with Demon's Souls back in 2009".

I figured out an easy way to take care of these guys after losing about 100k souls to them. I was using a +6 Saw Cleaver and could do about 250 dmg on a charge attack. Run up to them, hit them with a charge attack. This should stagger them so they won't hit you. They then try to charge up with a red aura. Use this opportunity to get behind them and use a charge attack again to knock it down, then finish him off with a visceral attack.

 

[Yoshichan]

My review + summary + comparison to DeS, DkS1, DkS2, LotF will be glorious.

Just sayin'

 

[AmethystEnd]

You gotta

get kidnapped by the guys with the big bags in Cathedral. You do this by getting murdered by one. You'll spawn in Yahar'gul. The set is somewhere in there.

Have I missed the chance to get the Tiny Music Box? When I speak to the little girl she just cries out for mum. I've killed the 4th and 5th bosses so I don't know if this has made a difference.
