Games kinda dissapoitning visually after BB's atmosphere.
First boss was surprising though, in a good way.

Yes. Classes only determine what you start with, you can get it later if you picked a physical class, though it can take a while.
What do you mean? All classes can wield magic, but only certain classes actually start out with spells and sufficient stats to use them.

I didn't mind the framerate issues in Bloodborne as much as some people did. But coming straight from Scholar of the First Sin on PS4 to this.... Yikes.
I really wish console games would give us some options in terms of VFX settings. I'd gladly turn down the details/lighting a bit for higher FPS.

I have no idea what this is, but I noticed it too. It's atleast not related to online since I played before it was enabled.
Okay, thanks for that. Got a bit worried, I thought he might be up to something.
yes, with an item

Password coop is so bad at the moment, me and my bro were able to play together once and we're struggling to do so again. Servers are being hammered I imagine.

It says level ___ on the top of the screen when in the bonfire so I assume so.

Yeah, I was going to say that it locks out every account except the primary according to google research. R.I.P.

Well you can tell it's been a while since I've played a Souls game. First boss just wrecked me
Undead bone shards on the hub fire.
I've had good experiences with that NPC. Helped me beat a boss while I had ran out of Estus
I'd vote for Fire Gem unless you're starting as Pyromancer. Fire's pretty useful early on.

Has anyone had any luck with summoning friends using a password? Can't seem to find my friends soapstone sign and vice versa.

NPC's have always been there to draw aggro off you, not to do any sort of damage. It does seem like these games have one or two NPC's that can completely wreck a boss by themselves though.

Honest question is this your first Souls game?
Because if so yes. They are brutal difficult until you learn all the mechanics and even then they are very very challenging
DS3 NPCs are the strongest I think I've ever seen in a Soups games. The one in front of Vordt's door can solo the boss if you have good luck.
Not going to draw aggro if they die in like 20 seconds to Lothric Knights.
I'm not expecting great damage, but in Bloodborne and this they seem to have nerfed their damage and health significantly compared to the other games.

Feels weird play a DS game without Epic Name Bro being available for tough enemy/boss fight videos

Knight's gear can take you through the entire game no problems. You might replace the longsword if you're deadset on it. I recommend
farming the great axe zombie by the first wall of lothric bonfire.

Well that's your problem. The AI is tailored to fight bosses, not mobs. Clear out the immediate area before you summon.
You know it is probably programmed that way just a wild guess. Maybe they don't want you using it to farm non boss mobs. Just a guess though.
This is Dark Souls.
Try harder!
Also he is not that hard. Maybe you're just impatient and that's what gets you killed?

NPCS tanked some of the hardest bosses in the game for me without a lot of trouble. If you're unlucky they'll get killed but it didn't happen often.
This seems to be at odds with having the AI go all Leeroy Jenkins at enemies that weren't even very close.

All these games later and it's still too much to expect a good camera in big boss encounters. The
is pure tedium. Absolutely no satisfaction from finishing that off
2nd boss fight with against that tree
As far as I know there are certain preset dual wield weapons (i.e. twinblades, brigand twindaggers) that you two hand to dual wield. Elsewise there seems to be no carryover powerstance from DS2.
I think I shall do that.
Well here is my guy:
Very little tweaks. Maybe it's just me... But the default face honestly isn't that bad. At least in comparison to other games. I'd rather just do tiny tweaks than somehow end up with a monstrosity.
I love that fight because I can keep it permastunned.
The same rule as every souls game applies here. Don't lock on to giant enemies. All the important parts are completely visible and doesn't require a lock on.
It took me about 10 attempts and I'm terrible at these games but what I've learned is that a souls game will reward those that really look at what they're doing. Be mindful of which hands the bosses are attacking with , where are their holes in their defenses and when their attack patterns change did everything else get altered with it ?
Thankfully the road to Ludex is far shorter than going to the cleric beast in bloodborne, so retrying is a very short jaunt away. Learn from your mistakes. This is advice coming from someone who to this day can't beat the second boss in Bloodborne (gascoigne) but yeah, these aren't games for the easily frustrated.
Aw man. That sucks. Guess I'm single-handing it for now I guess. I'm running DEX, but I'm feeling like running Knight and going strength might be more fun.
Here's my gal:
pay attention to his hit boxes. he's more vulnerable than he looks
