Anybody still playing the 'souls' games? This is a discussion where you can talk about any of the 'souls' games (Demons Souls, Dark Souls, Dark Souls 2, SOTFS and Bloodborne), your experiences, what you liked, didn't like, etc. I thought I'd start up some discussions within this post on different aspects of the games, get people talking, and just drum up some interest with DS3 on the horizon!
So, what better place to start than... What is your favourite 'souls' game?
Does it count if I've played DS 1&2 but never finished either? Because 1. I've restarted DS 1 three or 4 times because the more I learned about the game, the more I learned about how to not suck and get powerful quickly.
I've played DS 2 for about 4 hours. I just don't the energy anymore. I don't think I ever will! It's unfortunate, because I really want to enjoy the story, and the lore, and the atmosphere, but without the frustration. Because of that, I will not be getting DS 3. Maybe some time in the future if I ever get the passionate itch to play.
I've played DS1 and am currently playing thru DS2, and love it! However I feel like DS2 is easier, but maybe that's due to the lessons I already learned playing the first game. Sadly, I will not be playing Bloodborne or DS3 anytime soon since I currently cannot justify the cost of a PS4, and I still have tons of games to play on my 360.
I'm still in the early areas of the game so it may just be that DS2 hasn't turned on the hurt yet. So far I have noticed that the enemies seem more aggressive, and faster, than DS1, and there seem to be archers everywhere. Damned hollow archers (easily the deadliest enemy in the whole game).
I never had any real trouble beating Ornstein and Smough. Seath however is a bane to my existence, it always s takes me like two dozen attempts to beat him, I just can't get the hang of his AOE curse attack.
A close second is the Bed of Chaos, who can go die in a fire, except I think she kinda did already.
