Really, I'm surprised there's not a thread on it too. But, it could be that the others had taken a break from playing it, and so nothing got up here. Quagmire has been playing Dark Souls II a lot lately. I don't play that series, and although II looks better to me, I still don't think I'll start. I just don't like third-person games very much. I'm done playing Dragon Age: Inquisition, and I think that the fact that it's third person makes me bored with it. It's not as good as Skyrim, but still, playing first person makes a game more immersive and personal. Anyway, have fun!

I can't wait either, though I am not a speed character, lol I actually wear armor with that coat, I am a jack of trades in the game, gotta love being able to use most anything! We shall crush the darkness, and invaders > and you will have a very... upfront learning experience... soon... What I love about the game is that you can play it through at level one, never have to level up at all! However, if you're in NG+ like I am, with upgraded gear, you're just a glass cannon. Sure, you can one shot most things.... but they also one shot you, no matter the armor you use... Gotta love the punishing points of Dark Souls Dark Souls II isn't as good IMO, simply because it doesn't flow as well, and if you want to parry, gotta spend points in a new, stupid, stat.... good going From Soft...

Ah, well then this may be a more accurate label. And yes, I too can hardly wait to begin!!! I'm really interested in seeing how I'd fair as a man of miracles... with a katana (which katana, btw?). As for that final comment of yours... in their defense, Hidetaka Miyazaki was busy working on Bloodborne, and so couldn't manage it like he did with the first one & the dlc (although he did supervise it, so make of this comment what you will... )

It's a +10 Divine Uchi, it's kind of a stand in until you have the stats for the Great Sword of Artorias. Since they both scale really well with faith, you'll be doing great!
Also, let's hope DS III (if that becomes a thing) will be as good as DS I. The issues I have with DS II are something that Miyazaki could have changed, but he didn't want to... like soul memory, item durability, and getting invaded while hollow/area boss beaten. Those things bug me... Other than that, it's not too bad... aside from the limits to being able parry....

^I really hope they make DS III. Would be interesting if it was a prequel and took place before the AotA dlc, although I'm not sure what From could do with that to be honest. On another, completely unrelated note, I LOVE this fan-made song!!!

That last pic is Oroboro getting owned in NG+7 with Peeve... he was sent in on his own to fight ceaseless... the comedy never ends with those two!
To make this thread a bit more... dark souls themed... (since it's a DS thread I'm not sure that's possible...) here's a video!
