God, the PvP in this game gets me so fucking salty.
Just beat the
and you get teleported to a bonfire. When you beat a boss you become automatically embered again so of course this is an area where I get invaded in literally seconds as the invader obviously knows this.
The area by the bonfire is tight as fuck so I'm already trapped. Of course he begins the fight by applying some dank shit to his twin blades (the one that makes you bleed), followed by throwing the item that prevents estus healing. He then proceeds to kill me in 3 hits even though I have over 1,500 health. Whatever dual blades he had were quick and hard to dodge.
I think I'm more angry at how free I am. I guess this is what a scrub feels like fighting someone godlike at Street Fighter or something.

Hey, on the other hand, invaders frequently get 3-on-1'ed all the time. It's not that common to get a single, unsuspecting host. I know your pain, anyway. I was embered entering the archives one night, not thinking or planning on calling phantoms, with no Carthan Rogue for my twinblades, and I got stomped by an invader using the black knight halberd.

Even with DSFix it's a trash port. You can't compare it to DS3.
It runs fine, that's what's important.

Fine is relative, I don't think certain bosses and spell effects tanking the frame rate is fine.
Game runs at constant 30fps for me at least... its not like the game was built to run at 60fps anyways.
Has anyone had a glitch where other players in PVP are stuck in an idle pose? It's kind of hard to fight people like that.
yes. guy just poked me with an invisible escot
If I can beat it at SL50, you can beat it too.
That was fun, the only thing that pisses me off is that twitch said I was broadcasting when I actually wasn't. It did that against Yhorm too so I don't have kill videos for those two. I would have let NK kill me even if I was one hit away from killing him if I found out I wasn't recording during the battle. Boouurns.

That's why I hate when people say a game runs "fine", your fine is 30fps, mine is 60fps and it's not possible to maintain 60fps throughout because the port is bad and Durante could only do so much.

I rescued Siegward from the cell and got the Titanite Slab from him.

Guys, if you want to really appreciate the visuals in Dark Souls III, go back and boot up Demon's Souls or Dark Souls. I just messed around in the latter, then went right back to III, and the graphics are night and day. III is an absolutely beautiful game.
The player movement also feels much stiffer in Dark Souls, and the game is noticeably slower in terms of combat.
Anyway, I love how powerful NG+ makes you feel in the Souls games, at least early on. I destroyed the first three bosses (
) in less than a minute each. Haha

No. You can immerse yourself in the lore after you beat the game if you want, but you can easily play it without caring about the story. There's hardly any in a normal playthrough.
Bloodborne has a faster combat that encourages you to be more active during encounters. DS3 is more similar to it compared to older entries in the series, but you can be more "defensive". I still think that, while not perfect, it's a huge step forward for the series compared to the combat in previous games. When you master it, it's pretty rewarding.
Yes and no. The game's formula is the same, but i think that combat, areas and (obviously) graphics are far better in 3 compared to 1, which was pretty rough and had some awful areas in the second half. Also i agree with those who say that the PC port of DS1 is awful: sure, there's the DSfix, but that doesn't really justify a game that ships on PC with res and frame rate locked at 1024x720 @ 30fps. Especially when it took durante like 10 minutes to fix it, and yet they never officially unlocked it via patch.
I played it for 50 hours since D1, never had a crash. If you're asking about DS1 after the GFWL-->Steam patch, i don't know if they fixed that.

Yes.
Helped him defeat the monster in Undead Settlement, gave him his armour in the well, met him in the kitchen, and freed him from the cell, all in that order. That's every step I've read about.

Several bosses. It sucks in the early game.

Not too familiar with the deep axe, but the dark sword is quick, has deceptive reach and scales well with strength.
The moveset is alright, but i greatly prefer the standard long sword moveset.
So would I be better off just farming the enemies in High Wall of Lothric for them instead?

You'll get more as you progress. More so than farming at High Wall.

Yes normally you can summon 2 people without using th dried fingers. However certain locations will require you to use the dried fingers to summon 2 people. For example, Farron keep you need to use the dried fingers but at places like cathedral of the deep, catacombs you do not need to use the dried fingers to summon 2 phantoms.
Personal experiences playing the game coop with 2 rl friends.

Hmm, attempting to Add Bleed Infusion to an already bleeding weapon only increases it by a few points, maybe Hollow infusion is sensible enough for a Dex/Luck build afterall.
And the Shotel has no innate bleed. I could've sworn it did. Oh well.

I play the game for the lore... ;_____;
Alright put the NGAF password on and let me know where you want to summon me.
Loving this game so far, but I'm not sure where to go next.
I've defeated two Lords of Cinder at this point (
) but nothing new has seemed to open up. I thought that after beating
.I'm guessing I need to get to
and that I've missed the way there. Can anyone give a hint as to where to go next? The more subtle, the better.

Abyss Watchers and Aldrich
Aldrich, something new would have happened up in Anor Londo - am I missing something?
the Profane Capital
Item description from a boss weapon:
"Long ago, when Sulyvahn was yet a young sorcerer, he discovered the Profaned Capital and an unfading flame below a distant tundra of Irithyll, and a burning ambition took root within him.“
For the lazy:
Distant manor bonfire.
Is the NGAF password just that "NGAF"?
The Dragon-Kin Mausoleum bonfire would be great.
Also anything you want in return?

Head back to the lake in Irythil, and explore around there. Your next destination should be in that area.
