It's just such a staple of all of FS's games that I miss it.
Plus a game where the Moon is a prominent icon and theme throughout, yet we don't have the weapon that embodies the imagery.

whoa, sorry but that sounds terrible. transforming weapons is the back bone of this game. add more weapons please but I love the 2 modes. The tontorus was kind of a bummer when I saw that it didn't transform. that's the only weapon that doesn't right?
DLC will be you going back in time to fight with Ludwig but you try and destroy the Church from the inside and then must defeat him. He drops a badge that lets you buy the Moonlight Great Sword (which he modelled Ludwig's holy blade after). The L1 attack splits the Great Sword into two so you're dual wielding swords!
Make it happen From.
Thanks for the impressions. I'll definitely pick it up. I plan on doing ng+, chalice dungeons and helping out with bosses in co-op still. Also just picked up MKX, so I'll likely wait a week or two to pick up DS2. I'm just itching for some dark souls spells to be honest. I missed my magic in bb!

Moonlight Greatsword should be in, with S scaling on Arcane and B on Bloodtinge. It would be a good addition for this builds I find the most awesome but is only viable for 2 weapons or so, one which drains your health.

The Cathedral Ward gate
can be opened with an emblem that can be purchased from the messengers.
That emblem can only be purchased after beating CB.

Finally free from the nightmare:
None of the trophies were particularly difficult after getting through the game twice. D
P
gave me a challenge though, with all the one-hit kill bosses.

I think your friend needs to create that specific Dungeon before he can use glyph
It's just such a staple of all of FS's games that I miss it.
Who wrote the moonlight sonata?
What's the only Greatsword in the game?
It's already there.

You need to give him the password to your glyph. He needs to open it, both of you guys meet at the same area and you beckon and him ring the small bell. Easier to coordinate using the ps4 chat.

Dark Souls 2 vanilla + DLC is harder than Bloodborne. Not sure about SotFS but I think it'll be harder overall too. Outside of Chalice dungeons, Bloodborne is really not that bad, especially the bosses.
Did you like, miss the post where I explained all that, or were you too angry to properly read it?
Meh, someone else answered again so w/e.
Only in NG, in NG+ you still have the badge so you can get the emblem right away.

Dark Souls 2 has a lot of cheap moments, I've heard SOTFS had ever more.
He says he's made it. Central Pthumahxhdidb or whatever. But like I said, everytime I give him the glyph code he says it doesn't exist. Is there a password on top of that I'm missing? He's already almost through with it but I'm just starting it, does he need to like remove his chalice and make it again or something?

its more for the experience that early in the game having a few bagmen you can cheese all , plus two pigs which you can cheese makes the whole level farming for early game... also I only did this for a few hours and got twin blood shards for about every 1/5 bagmen or even more.

OK, I've plaid through all of the Souls games up to this point.
I'm pretty lost in Bloodborne though.
I've been playing for a while. I've explored (I think) all of the sewers. I've unlocked a number of shortcuts (3 maybe?). I've leveled up maybe 5 times, and have upgraded the Cane twice.
I feel like I'm making zero progress compared to the number of hours I've put in. I haven't felt any story progression whatsoever. I just fought some Cleric in a graveyard, the first boss encountered, and he was quick as shit and slaughtered me. I felt like I had no chance against him.
What am I doing wrong? I feel like I'm playing Bloodborne "wrong." I always felt a sense of progression in the earlier games. I'm not getting that here. I also don't feel like I'm getting much better either. I worry that as I'm older and my reflexes aren't what they used to be that maybe Bloodborne will be too fast-paced for my playstyle.
Any tips or thoughts on my predicament?

My insight just went up 3 points! Only a madman could see such things.
To be fair and honest, it was someone else on GAF who posted this several OTs ago. I'm just spreading their wisdom around.
Have you read all the little messages on the ground in the Hunter's Dream?

So is everyone sure that M
serves no purpose? I keep meaning to kill him for his rune, but i keep thinking I'll miss out on some big secret.

Cane is the hardest starting weapon imo but you shouldn't be struggling as much as you say you are. Maybe you aren't aggressive enough? Getting HP back via the regain system is absolutely vital to the game. Also, using your gun for parrying makes a lot of areas and bosses more manageable.
Don't think age has anything to do with it. There's that Jeff guy who's basically an OAP playing the game laying down on his sofa because he has back problems and he's actually making progress.

The Moonlight Sonata reveal makes even more sense given the theme of the Moon in the game...From, you sneaky bastards.
Remember that part of the Miyazaki interview where he said he places a great importance on names?

Yea, I may have been over leveled - 54, or just lucky. I used the kirkhammer, and just rolled into him every time he attacked to get under, using the two handed kirkhammer did serious damage at +6 and 32 strength. Didn't really aim for his legs just hitting whatever I could hit. I mean it def wasn't easy, I used up most of my vials but it's the first boss I ever one-shotted in this game so far.

We have to go deeper.
What are the design engravings on the sheath (which is shaped like the Moonlight GS, btw) based on?

Especially given that the shape of the blade is pretty reminiscent of the Moonlight Greatsword.
EDIT: Well, not exactly, but I can see a little resemblance:

I would say kill him. The community hasn't found anything and the official guide says he has no other purpose. I think you are safe going for the rune.

A maxed Ludwig is an A in Arcane!
DAMNIT!
DAMNIT!
The game gives you echoes like candy all the time though so farming is rather useless IMO.
Yeah makes NG+ super fast.

Does (last required boss spoilers)
Mergo's Wet Nurse creep anybody else the fuck out? She's not as disturbing or gross as, say, the Blood Starved Beast or The One Reborn, but I find her much creepier. Something about that invisible head, all of those arms, and the way she moves...that forward shuffle with the arms flailing about is just weird.
