    What???? The Crest Shield is like the coolest looking shield I've ever seen.

    I'll always have a huge space in my heart for Demon's Souls *sniff* And yeah Stonefang Tunnel is absolute genius level design. The whole area with Patches and that underground tunnel with the bearbugs is awesome.

    Well I mean, if you pan around using the right analog camera control button and take a good look at your environment like you do a million times playing this game, does it "look" better on the PC? And why?   I always notice the visual quality degrades in certain places (blighttown) while "on...

    Dark Souls!

    I've never seen what Dark Souls looks like on a high running PC so I'm just wondering why everybody is saying it looks so much better. I figured with HD tv's and current gaming platforms it doesn't get much better. I'm 28 and grew up with PC's always being superior to consoles, but just...

    I don't get it... where does this improvement with the frame rate of the pc version come into play? Why can't the ps3 version have the same visual quality, is the problem with the ps3 itself? And why couldn't they do a mod like they did with the pc version for a better frame rate?   The new...

    The (new) HD800 Impressions Thread

    I was going to sell the HD800s and just took them out of hibernation to make sure they worked and... sound better than I can ever remember. Did I not have my crack tube amp before? Sound is grand.

    Dark Souls!

    Exactly. I've gotten my ass handed to me plenty of times trying to "spam" wrath of the gods. They do it right back and get me. So then you gotta change tactics. Or people know how to roll dodge it which is pretty easy if you know how. The key to that spell is to use it creatively, preferably...

    Quote:   Have to disagree with you about "spam"-ing or whatever the hell it's called. What's wrong with using this spell to kill people? I've worked long and hard to get that miracle to strike as hard as it does and it makes me feel so awesome to use it cause I'm not a very good at PvP...

    Dark Souls!

    ^ I did the exact same thing on the character I have right now. First thing i did was go and grabbed Astora's straight sword as it's accessible right off the bat in a new game and with a brand new character you need a decent weapon. Plus you can he-man your way through the catacombs and get the...

    Dark Souls!

    Agreed. I'm not really interested in playing the actual "game" anymore, every once in a while I set aside some time to get a few good PvP battles in on the weekend.   I find it odd that I'm just now realizing some weapons are better once you hit a certain level. I wish to dear god I had more...

    You'll get more drops when your item discovery is increased. Wearing the gold serpent ring or wearing that evil treasure chest thing (stacking with both doesn't increase it) will bring it up to 300 I think, then holding 10 humanity (undead or human) will bump it up to a max of 410. I do this...

    Dark Souls!

    I didn't like PvP in Demon's Souls at all. Maybe I just never got the hang of it or never learned any strategies besides simple dueling but I always had my ass handed to me and it just wasn't enjoyable. It's a crapshoot with Dark Souls. If I sense I'm gonna lose a match I switch tactics and try...

    Darkmoon can be fun if you invade in the right places. In the Kiln during certain times you can invade someone before you get to the first black knight. I also like to get invaded by Darkwraiths, only if I'm prepared though. Nothing's worse being invaded with your pants down your ankles. Then...

    Dark Souls!

    I love PvP cause since I'm in the darkmoon covenant. if i come across a player who's using some random cheap tactic i just reinvade over and over and kill him using whatever counters his stategy the best. The best example; I was invading in Kiln of the four flames and a guy was camping and just...

    Ahh yes those dark sorceries do split you in half... That's why I always carry my trusty crest shield which is top dog for lighter shields reducing magic damage. I can at least take a solid hit from whatever the spell is which shoots out like ten dark balls and still have 3/4 of my hp left...

    My personal strategy for those guys is constantly doing a backward clockwise retreat around the whole room. That way Smough gets trapped behind some pillars and leaves you opportunities to hurl whatever pyromancy you have at Ornstein, and when you run out sneaking in R2 attacks with my claymore...

    Dark Souls!

    ^^^ Agreed about using those pillars. Make sure to just block and not roll for any attacks by Smough. Kill Ornstein First cause the big version of Ornstein is a tough mofo. And yeah use pyromancy. Oh hell, just summon two guys to help you. Should be over pretty quickly. I did that on my...

    Is your equip load less than 25%? Are you using ring of favor and protection? I use that pretty regularly when focusing on PvE, especially a new character. That way you can equip some nice stuff while still being able to move fast. Stack that with Havel's ring and you're set.   Senn's...

    Properly leveling up is confusing. This go around I'm leveling up in a functional sense... If there's a spell I want I level up to the required faith/intelligence and the stop. Or a certain strength level (I'm trying now to get to 40 for a certain weapon). I've stopped with endurance cause...

    Has anyone beaten Kalameet? I'm trying to and he's giving me the hardest time, very difficult. I need the slab of titanite he has in his lair but now I just want to kill him. He has so much HP and deals such strong attacks, just a monster. I've gotten him down to less than ten percent HP but he...

    Dark Souls!

    My favorite thing to do now is start a new game and run through it in human form and see where it takes me... A much fuller, satisfying experience I think. It teaches you a lot about Pvp though for sure. I'm a lot better at PvP as a result. More at lower levels cause I don't have to fight those...
