Lmao wtf is this?
Is it a test copy or something?
Seeing as it's saying "Dummy" with the overlay
What the fuck is this?
This pops up every time I lock on. Anyone see this issue before and know how to get rid of it? Pretty much makes the game unplayable.
I need to see this in action, upload a video if you can.

Unless you're really, really good at the game I don't see how this is possible if you fully explore, try to do quest lines, and do every boss.
I'm glad I wasn't the only one who felt something when the smith talked about him. RIP big guy.What's a nice touch is when youtake the coal back to the smith, he comments on the Giant directly. Seems like they were old friends too.

I'm 35 hours into the game and my last boss was Exeggutor. I do understand that I usually take twice as long as the HLTB time for my first playthrough, but it absolutely blows my mind how people beat the game "doing everything" in 20 hours or less on their first playthrough. No way.
That Demonboss was so fucking hard, I had to cheese him by running away and chipping away at him with my upgraded bow.King##############
ayyyy spoilers.
Anyway, JC beat the game doing everything in 11 hours.
I'd say most that beat the game in less than 20 hours definitely run through the game and arent taking their time. I know I'd cut my playthrough down significantly if I wasnt patient when entering areas or literally try to find every little secret in an area. Depending on the way you play the game it can be short or long, like any souls title. This isnt even factoring in difficulty, as getting stuck in an area or a boss can easily up your total playtime. It's like how megaman games or *insert old-school game here* can technically be beaten in an hour but depending on your skill level, that 1 hour playtime can easily go up to 40 hours
I intentionally take souls games very slow(I even resort to walking in certain areas instead of jogging) so that is a big reason why I take longer than average.
Souls games always compress with knowledge so I usually go from 70+ hours on a first run to 30-40 on a second but 20 hours on a first go is legitimately amazing.
I don't know what to tell you.
23 hours and I finished the game and beat all but 1 boss.
These guys had cleared the entire area out of enemies and either were at the beginning of the level or waiting somewhere to ambush invaders. This was practically every single invasion I got today. I also invaded the same world bunch of times in a row and still they the same thing. Their only intention was clearly to gank invaders and it sucks since they are on the highest priority and you get matched with them constantly.
People trying to get through the level with 2 summons is fine and I don't mind but at my level that isn't happening and it is always a gank squad.
But what is "doing everything"? I doubt someone who beat the game in 11 hours on their first playthrough bothered to get, for example. Is "doing everything" just fighting every boss, no matter what you do between them?Emma's dialogue after you beat Vordt
Not trying to talk shit about the way they play the game, everyone is free to enjoy the game however they want, obviously, but lurking the import thread and seeing reports of "I did everything and beat it in 15 hours, really disappointed" made me very worried, but it's already guaranteed to take longer than Demon's to me.

How screwed am I with Anri's quest line? I just learned that I skipped a complete area below the Catacombs... so far, this is what happened:
- Met with the two at the fortress(?).
- Yorel is dead. (Way too early, didn't see anyone or even use his free levels)
- Found out about Smouldering lake, while I was in Anor Londo
- Backtracked to Catacombs/Smouldering and offed (Horace), didn't tell her about it.
- Now she appears in Yorshka bonfire and no pilgrim hiding about the bonfire area. (Because Yorel is already dead?)
Am I missing something else?

He took me 7 or 8 tries to figure out his attacks. I beat him straight up in melee, but it wasn't pretty. I almost shit myself when heThat Demonboss was so fucking hard, I had to cheese him by running away and chipping away at him with my upgraded bow.King##############

But you don't say you did everything if you even missed one boss, right? I'm not questioning how people can beat the game faster than me, but there's no way you can do everything on a blind playthrough in 11 hours. It's just not true, unless "everything" means "not much".
Is an All Bosses Speedrun "doing everything"?
So I somehow missedat theSiegwardand ran intoCleansing Chapelwith his armor on.Patches

You progressed too far without using Yoel's free levels so the NPC that replaces him doesn't spawn which is why the pilgrim isn't there.
Seed from the tree of the giant.
At firelink, near the exit where you go to the tower, there's a tree that'll give you a seed every couple of bosses I think. Use it and enemies will attack invaders. It's limited and rare, but goddamn is it hilarious to see them panic
Use a seed of a giant tree. After each time you're invaded, there is a random chance of one spawning on the tree upstairs outside firelink (if one has spawned and you haven't collected it, there won't be any more spawning until you collect that one). It's a consumable that causes enemies to target invaders as well.
Also, if you have coop phantoms with you, if you engage the invader one at a time, it's pretty likely they wouldn't hide among enemies. When I invade, I only hide among enemies if the host has summons and they refuse to engage me one at a time.

That guy fucked me up. He has lots of tools and combo breakers I didn't expect. He's a rare boss that seems to be harder for pure melee builds. He'll do AoE after a few strikes, counters with pyromancy combustion as well.
Boils down to strike a few times, and evade his counters. Punish when he summons meteors, then dodge them.
On PC,
Looking for a Sunlight Sword +5, offering Dark sword +10 and fume UGS +5.
if one never played a souls game before, could they begin with #3 or would a lot of story be missing?
Where's the best place for invasions/duels at end game (not NG+)? I feel bad and annoyed invading random people who keep going to bosses.
Regarding Anri's quest:I didn't use any of the levels and the pilgrim was still there for me last night.
So why did nobody tell me that YGreat Machete was so damn good?horm's
I've had about 20 duels with it and only lost three times. This thing upgraded with 45 STR is a beast of a weapon.
Whaat? I just fought him and could basically just mash R1 the entire fight with my melee build. Easiest boss I fought so far.
You're screwed out of thebut can probably still do her alternative quest line, which seems pretty cool (I'm actually going for that one myself, rather thansecret ending)the quest line that leads to the secret ending. Fuck hollowing.

Same.Yoel was dead, never used free levels and never bought anything. Pilgrim was there.
I see all these posts about quests people are doing for NPC and just think to myself, good god I must have messed some shit up.
I don't think I have a single active NPC quest
The round balcony close to the Pontiff boss fight is like the unofficial arena of the game. Tons of summon signs there.
Did some PvP tonight with an Estoc, lol can just mash R1, I don't even know it's moveset or what R2 does.
You can play horribly and still win. Too good.

Is the dark sword still OP post 1.04? Or was it ever? I need all the help I can get.
