Strange, I was still undead after helping someone earlier. Maybe it bugged out on me.

Yeah, that's triggered by
going in the coffin on the beach.
Confused the hell outta me the first time.

you can go in other peoples worlds to regain humanity, but its really random. I've turned human from not beating the boss and I've beaten a boss and still not gone human.
and yea no more estus flask burn in!

Anybody find any good dex weapons yet? I'm SL76 and I still haven't found one.
Katanas/Scythes etc.

Yeah, I guess it's random as hell. Just helped someone else beat a boss again and I'm still undead.

Ugh. Not happening.
Finally starting to see enemies disappearing.
I'm starting to get the hang of fighting without a shield which is feeling more and more awesome. I kept almost losing around 6000 souls near the area
. I forgot how intense it feels to almost lose your souls. The fact that enemies eventually disappear makes it all the more gut wrenching if you lose them.
I haven't really had any problems with loading times luckily. Even when I die it only takes about 15 seconds tops to load. I'm playing on the 360 version though. Wondering if that has anything to do with it?

I've been going at it since 1PM.
I've killed two bosses, and leveled up to 43. I'm not sure how many times I've died. I'm guessing close to 30. I made things harder on myself by neglecting VGR. I'm still getting used to the new stats.
Are the re-spec rumors true?
I'm an explorer, and blew some points on ATN (3 levels worth). I don't feel like leveling magic until NG+.

Wow fuck this game. I was at figthing the boss above the last giant, the warrior looking one. My teammate used the projectile canon something, it killed me. It sucks and then To add salt to the wound that same projectile that hit me was the one that also killed that boss. Fuck this lol.
If this difficulty trend continues, then this probably really is more difficult than DkS1.

I joined the blue covenant earlier. I haven't been invaded yet, so I was wondering, but I don't think this covenant stops invasions entirely, it just gives you a helper to defend against. I'm really curious to see it happen but I guess the game is new so there aren't that many invaders yet. Give this game a few months or whatever, and there will be so many invaders and gankers.
Haha yup
I was texting a friend at the time as he was ahead of me and i ask
whats the coffin do? After i already went in then out, he said "we don't know bro" i noticed that i had like a flower wreath but i looked at the armor itself and it showed the wreath on the item pic so i figured it was there the whole time i just never noticed.
But then i started noticing stuff like how i screamed like a psychopath when i died i didn't remember from the beginning of the game either.
But I just went back and got my glorious beard back
Btw the wreath was gone again as a man.

Anyway i thought the whole thing was hilarious.
Based on the other thread, it should be working now.
I think I'm gonna sleep over these server issues. Don't want to play it in offline mode.

Yeah I found it. However I can't use it...can you only use the soapstones in human form now as well?
Anyone find any decent faith weapons yet? Still using that starting mace.
Try exiting the game and starting it up again (don't have to go to XMB, menu quit works).

No, might be you just need to go back to the main menu and re-join your game. Or, you're not in a aera that let's you be summoned.(like in Majula for exemple)

Got past
in the Forest of Fallen Giants, this game is sogood.gif.
I still need my katana though, it makes me sad to not have it. At least Scimitar is actually legit in this game unlike DS1.

I love Pokken!
Man... i'm at SL 80 and still only have 1/4 of the game done. PvP meta will be at least 200 i think.

So far the 360 version is running great. Everyone was saying the screen tearing was horrible, but I'm not even noticing it while playing. Still some frame dips, but they're not so bad as to ruin the game

I went with the Swordsman class. Love me 2 blades and no shield.
I'm not feeling the difficulty at all. I've only died 3 times and I'm 4 hours into the game. This, however, might be related to me being accustomed by now to the formula.
The mob animations strongly resemble those of the the original game, which makes things much easier to handle.

No shield is the path of true gentlemen and lady swordfighters. Been rolling that way since Demon's Souls.
Ah, okay, thanks. Guess I know what I need to level up now.
OroboroTheNinja in the earlier linked video predicted it would be at least 150 since Adaptability is so useful, and most people in the PvP scene are gonna be getting that stat alone to 38.

Yup.
Really dont know why they split END into 2 different stats. But it'll just make the pvp cap higher
Go to Mujala, and go down the stairs next to the cat merchant. Once you get to a sewer-like area, pull the switch down.
Yeah I'm explorer and I'm not really feeling the difficulty yet either. I'm still early though, so maybe it will ramp up. I felt the same way about Demon's Souls, as I started that after playing Dark Souls for 140 or so hours. The game was a breeze at first, and I killed most of the first level bosses on my first try, but shortly after that the game picked up in difficulty.
