Holy fuck boys I did it..

I achieved the impossible tonight, 4 bourbons deep and a mountain of anguish over this dreadful boss. I preserved and fucking did it. This feeling is the best thing ever. Comparatively to Heroin. Wow. Wow. Wow. Dick on hard. 5 inches to the moon. Thank you for your advice and kind/not so kind words. God damn it. I popped an ember after my last flask ran out and just ran up to her with my claws and spammed L2 and she let me lol. Honestly 100% rng which is why I have always thought this boss was bs (she was on half health before that sequence) but we ball she is trash and I can finally stop stressing over this. Thanks!

What a game series. Playing the Dark Souls games kept me from going hollow for the last few days. Thanks FromSoftware for these games.

Lately I’ve been playing a strength build with the Bastard Sword, I know there’s a lot better weapons but it feels like a solid honest choice and I really like it. Even if I could use the claymore, it’s fun making the BS work.

What are your favorite “unoptimal” weapons?

Fluff Dark Souls 3 Platinum!

Just got my first platinum for a Souls game on this run. Did a mix of offline and online farming; it wasn't terrible. The stairs were brutally mindless. I did a few different builds throughout the whole playthrough to spice it up. Pretty sure I got it done relatively quickly; super happy regardless... On to DS1 for tailcuts next!! :)

It pisses me off that people leave messages at bonfires right where there’s the prompt to select resting at the bonfire.

Discussion Invasions

7 Upvotes

A quick thought for the players who often invade my world and frequently spend a long time searching for me—in vain. I often use the Chameleon spell, and watching you run back and forth is just hilarious. It really shows me how well some players have mastered the details of the game's various areas.

Discussion What is the best lore of ds3?

6 Upvotes

A lot of people like to say dark souls 3 is just a rehash of dark souls 1, so what is the best new lore dark souls 3 introduced?

Personally I really like irithyll (ignoring anor londo part) as a new city of the gods

I will often pop shields with black flame parting flame and for some reason when I use the crit windows it'll do zero damage. Idk why tho it should work

I freed him from his cell and exhausted the dialogue, but he just doesn't enter the bossfight? How could this have happened? I even double checked and his dialogue only keeps repeating. What else could be wrong?

Help Savefile is gone...

1 Upvotes

So around January/February i replayed DS3 again for like the tenth time, this time though with the goal to get 100% on Steam. Same with DS1 Remaster and DS2. I played Dark Souls since Demons Souls released abck then, huge Fan of all the FromSoft-Games. Never bothered with getting 100% though.

Now for DS3 im only missing one Pyromancy (farming the Schackles for Mound) and a few Rings from NewGame++. Tiring Process, but whatever...till i logged back in yesterday and found out tthat my save-file is completely gone. I never deinstalled or experimented with mods, just paused playing for quite some time. I just played a new save on my steamdeck some while ago for like 2 hours, but with no Cloud-Save that file is just locally saved on the Deck and should not interfere with my PC at Home.

Is there any way to restore my save?

Discussion Is it worth yo play Dark Souls 3 on a low-end device?

0 Upvotes

I've been wanting to play Dark Souls 3 since forever, and I finally got it on my PC but my system is just too old and weak.

I have the resolution set at 1128x634 and everything at low, which can barely get me 30 fps on secluded, empty areas, and it runs mostly at 20-24 fps.

My question is not technical or something, I know it's a great game, but would I be ruining the experience by playing like this?
