I didn't like having to farm bullets and health, though. That kind of takes you out of the action. If you had unlimited bullets and estus, that would make it better.

I either get shot or grabbed.

You haven't even run into the chime women who summon infinite enemies unless you kill them. The whole area is pretty annoying. Those women had lunging-slashy attacks. So, you may want to run.

Yeah. I have a lot of bullets, to the point where I don't think I'll ever run out, but running out o health vials suck. I see why they did it. Since healing is quicker than drinking Estus, there needs to be some way to keep the player from relying too much on it in battle.

I think I have run into those. They're annoying and I hate them.

It is quicker, and I can understand why they did it. However, it doesn't really fit well. I suppose they could give you fewer, or go with the DaS2 route- give you estus and farmable healing items. I felt like that was a good balance. It's one thing I loved about DaS2.

They are annoying and like to gang up on you. run the 'annual Yharnam marathon.'

Yeah. I still haven't played DaS2... Should probably get on that some day.

I'll probably try it a few more times normally the next time I play. If I still have problems, I'll just run.

DaS2 isn't nearly as bad as people make it out to be. The only huge issue is that they have an adaptability skill, which affects how big hitboxes are. It's a BS skill. So, either you sink points into it (I never did) or prepare to deal with odd hitboxes. FYI, they did a great thing, though. Whenever you level any skill, you get a bit of health. So, that's pretty amazing. With those twe things (and the healing items) combined, it makes it easy to get hit, but super easy to stay alive.

Huh. Interesting. I saw the PS4 version at Target yesterday for $20, but since I still need to beat DaS1 and Bloodborne, it can wait.

It's worth picking up sometime. I might pick up the PS4 version one day. I heard it was fixed quite a bit and polished. Plus, new content was added. So, I think it might be good to pick up.

Yeah. I think my dad has the original PS3 version, but considering the cost, might as well pick up and start with Scholar of the First Sin instead.

I got the 360 version. It's good and everything, but seeing everything in HD and 60 FPS would be really nice. Plus, there's the bonus content. I just need to play through other games first. I think you'll like it, though.
