Second half of the game is so meh.

Damn, the 3rd world is as small as everyone said it was - like 90 percent of it is empty traversal space.
. Am I right in assuming the 4th world will be even smaller?
Glad there's that stint on Earth to balance things out
Cool. I would say you achieved that based on the system. Personally, I would still prefer deeper 1v1 mechanics (pending some possible breakthroughs) but I also said that freestyles are just more fun. And they are.
Yea, that's what I was playing with. I enjoy mixing twin cannon with grab, especially with evade back or neutral jumps. But I found that playing with a single enemy got boring since it was looping in options. Except when you add multiple enemies, you start to get cool stuff. Like using grab/gun on an enemy to keep them lifeless in the air and then pull a twin cannon on a second enemy after a roll. Then roll back twin cannon on the enemy who landed, roll back into a combo. Mix and match. That's the kind of freestyle stuff that is fun. And changing enemies, specials, etc... up increases the style opportunities.
You've done well with the combat. And I'm critical about combat in action games to a fault. I'm sure your system will be mentioned in the future with the likes of the best combat heavy action games.

So I'm at Drenchfort and there's a spot where there's supposed to be a statue holding a ball...except there was no ball.
I tried blowing up the statue and nothing. I went to the beginning of the entrance and came back and now the statue is gone. Am I fucked or what?
I'm a good 4 hours in...I really don't feel like starting over.
Anyone?

Hurgh. Ran in to a glitch where a lantern would not attach to a statue. Thought it must have been my fault and spent 40 minutes in the room trying to figure out what to do (there were enough malleable parts of the room that it could have been anything). Left the dungeon, came back, and it worked that time.
The real problem is that, whenever I discover I can't solve a room now, I am not going to know whether it glitched or whether I haven't figured it out yet. That's going to hurt my enjoyment of the game a lot.

That happened to you too? Same thing happened to me as well. Was it in the first Dead Lord's dungeon, by any chance?

Second one. Big room with panels on each side and a reaper statue in the middle.
Oh yes! That one. I mixed it up. Same thing happened to me at the same place.

How strange. I was sure there was just more to the room that I hadn't figured out yet, but nope, worked fine next time I came in.
This has happened to me so many times. Usually when I can't figure out a puzzle instantly somewhere in the back of my mind I thought "what if its a glitch".
Also the lantern only attaches right at the part of the statue with the hand sticking out.

Help I just finished the crucible and that thing happened that says The End. Now I am climbing it and its glitched at the part with branches, it doesnt change walls. If I leave the crucible does this thing stay?

I would run circles around the statue. the action prompt never appeared. Had to reload before it did.

Something like that happened to me, but the thing was that I found the ball on the ground already instead of the statue holding the ball.
Weird because I founded the explosive plant useless (because there was nothing around to use it for, since the ball was already on the ground) but now that you mention your bug I know mine was a bug too.
Still, I hope that it isn't a grame breaking bug for you!
Good luck dude!

Seems I am not the only one this happened to, the vines are glitches. Can I leave and come back?

anyone found a good guide for the Locations of the soul stones - Sticks and Stones quest?
There are plenty.
This written guide.
This dude did videos of every single collectable in order, you can see the stones by the time markers.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jsZzt31Wr8Y&feature=relmfu
The video is what I used, it allowed me to see the locations and how he got them that way I could remember if I had gotten that one before.

it's an achievement if you care about those things
I do. I want to platinum this game.
I am pretty sure you get a legendary item out of it.

Anyone on PS3 want level 19 Possessed Claws? They aren't upgraded so you can do whatever you want with them.

They should definitely patch in a feature to reveal stones, Book of the Dead pages, and relics on the map. Maybe make it NG+ only. Fury's Embrace was great in DS1, really surprised there isn't something like it in this one.

Finally got to world 3. How long will it take to complete?
half way i think unless you take your time
prolly around 5 hours i think, atleast felt like it to me
3-4 hours round about.
You have to collect them again in NG+ which allows you to add more stats to your character. But I 100% agree that they need something like Fury's Embrace in this game, it needs it more than DS1.
Half way point I would say unless you start doing side quests or trying to find all the collectibles.

Okay, thanks guys. It's nice to have confirmation that my controller is fine.
as it happens, I nearly managed a perfect against Thane but I got cocky and ate a pretty vicious side swipe. Humbled me right up.

Thanks, but I think I'm screwed until they patch it...and that's if they are able to fix it where it I could continue my save...if not I'll have to restart.
I even tried going to another area and exiting the game and then booting up my save and revisiting Drenchfort again but the statue is still missing.
Well, honeymoon is over. This game is a fairly buggy experience
.
it's a known problem and supposedly there is a patch coming, but think I'm going to have to wait until it drops to pick up my game again.
intersting note : there seems to be a fairly aggressive texture filtering issue on PS3, where you can see a line drawn in the ground that shimmers and follows you as you run around the world.
it's an old texture filtering method I think(looks bilinear), I use to see it in a lot of older games. Interestiing to note that this doesn't seem to happen later on in the game, or isn't as noticeable later on due to different artwork/textures, giving me the impression that the game was further pushed out the door before it was ready.
I got hit with the Soul Arbitor book bug. Workaround didn't work and can't progress past that area

Experienced my first game breaking bug. The first one of this generation. Fuck this game.
STAY AWAY FROM THIS GAME
And no it's not puzzle related. Karn refused to pick up the second piece of the heart so now he's stuck in a pressure plate room and he won't move because he follows me. Worthless piece of crap game man and I've never said that about any other game, like ever.
STAY AWAY!

I had a sweet glitch where a boss just inexplicably died after I hit him twice.
But then the subsequent boss just floated around as an intangible ghost until I reset the game.
Also, the game froze three times while I was doing that part everyone hates.
Good to see Vigil used the delay to really polish the game up.

Hey! GUESS WHAT?! Turn the game off and turn it back on. Your problem is now fixed.
Don't be a melodramatic and instead try to troubleshoot things instead of just giving up.
Anybody reading his post should ignore it. I can't state with certainty, but I think every single bug encountered has had some kind of workaround. Its a great game and should be experienced.
