I don’t think it feel so different. I’m using the shield all the time though, in DS3 I was 2-handing great swords and rolled.

Yes! I used to keep a SL10 character for Undead Burg assists and invasion defence, and another SL45 for Ornstein & Smough.
Never really did online in 3, and I have no idea why.

aw man you're in the thick of it! Blighttown is legendary. what a place. what a SENSE of place. the other games had Blighttown-like levels but i still think this is the best version. that weird slug you find halfway down. the leeches at the bottom which are great for farming upgrade material. you can see even down into Blighttown from a number of areas far above it.
have you taken out some bosses by now? wondering if you bee-lined straight for Blighttown or have been fully exploring the Undead Burg.
just remember one rule: don't put anything into resistance.

i bought the remastered version last year, never played any dark souls before that.
I first played bloodborne and platinumed that.
Dark souls def shows it age but its a very good game, saying that some of the early boss fights are a bit simple as in mechanics. The level of difficulty also spiked for me in a lot of places, I soloed everything including the dlc, had some major problems at a boss fight called smough and Ornstein. died 26 billions times.
And there is the notorious blightown which i did manage to complete in one go without dying, it most of been horrific for people playing it with 10 fps. remaster version has no fps loss.
Game is a must for any one. the lore, the weapons, the locations it is fantastic.
9/10 game for me
bloodborne 10/10
other to souls games 8/10

It’s a scary place for sure. I did go trough undead burg and the depths. Killed gargoyles (joke with summon) and gaping dragon. Fun fight rather easy when I got a hang of it.
Forgot that demon. He was a bitch. But with dogs killed and a few tries he went down.

nice yeah the one with the dogs is maybe the most bs in the game. if you got past him you are golden.

There's a reason people are still playing this game 10 years later.

Mr. Community
You lighted the Blighttown bonfire?
That means you cannot use a bone to get out of Blighttown now. You're in for good!

It's a good game but it falls apart after the first 2/3. The quality of the level design, graphics and gameplay plummets significantly, the "remaster" does not fix this. Still worth playing though coz the first 2/3 are fantastic. PS - Your first encounter with Capra demon is cheap as fuck.

I played it for 4 hours the dropped it. So utterly boring. The combat was alright, but there was just no story. Completely uninteresting world. And the difficulty, I felt, didn't match the lack of story, so I had no reason to keep repeating the same areas (when I died) when I simply just didn't care what was next.
