Blind, no guides used. wbu Sup Forums? Also is it just me or did they casualise most of the bosses?

congrats you ugly loser
Kevin Wood
It felt a bit easier, but I also went into the game having played all the others in the series, so I was very comfortable with the mechanics and could anticipate most of the things that they would throw at me.
Nothing will ever be able to recreate your first playthrough of a souls game, unfortunately.
Jack Young
They definitely did casualise the game a lot
My problem is more with the boring level design though.

PvE was way too easy, only had issues with Pontiff (because of speed) and Dancer (did her before pontiff and giant-guy). Playing a pure mage after that is annoying, not even remotely fun. PvP and invasions made me return to Dark Souls 2, because the core mechanics are a mess and won't be fixed as it would harm PvE.
Michael Edwards
>because the core mechanics are a mess how?
Cooper Taylor
Wait, I beat it on my second try too. It's not hard to figure out you can charge the weapon and hit the boss with the beam. The moment I saw my axe hitting him for 20 dmg I knew it was a gimmick fight.
Took me 2 tries.
Mason Diaz
To be fair, Yhorm can basically oneshot you in his second phase depending on your build/SL. He oneshot me from full life when he had one stormruler hit left, I really didn't expect him to hit that hard.
Dylan Russell
How do you get him by Yhorm in the first place? He's DS1-tier boss, slow and hard hitting, in DS3, a game with tamina-free rolls which give you iframes for the entire duration of the animation.
Jonathan Rodriguez
Big Black Dick >first try, went back for a second
Camden Thomas
Almost same as you but took me 3 tries for the abyss watchers
4 tries for Pontiff
1st try for champion gundyr 1st try for Aldrich 6 tries for Lothric Princes 4 tries for Old Demon King 6 tries for Nameless King 2 tries for Soul Of Cinder
5 tries is all I need to jot a boss down every move and timing
Thomas Martin
Holy Knight Hodrick is the hardest enemy in the game in the Woods summon
NG+

>how many times you died matters I'm LE GOOD VIDEO GAME LE DARK SOUL EASY these are the people that the prepare to die marketing appealed to
Christian Johnson
i find it hard to believe you beat oceiros on your first try but died more than twice to any of champ gundyr, nameless king, twin princes or soul of cinder
Adam Reed
I got Oce on my first, but I died a dozen on Twin Princes. Got Champ on my second. Nameless in a few.
I just suck with Twin Princes.
Nolan Foster
>le how can anybody else's experience be different to le mine >le whole world le revolves le around le me fuck off you ugly retard
Lucas Lee
i said i find it hard to believe and thats your recation? wow. you need to take your medication user
Jaxson Brooks
Not really, I did about the same, but I can pretty much optimally play souls games after 5 games of more or less the same shit. At least a lot of the bosses toward the end tended to give a good challenge, which makes sense given the progression of the game.
Ethan Mitchell
Is he legitimately meant to be hard user?
I did him first try with ease.
Lucas Lee
not particularly, but hes a lot harder than champ, soul of cinder or twin princes
Anthony Wright
Are you shitting me? Cinder and Twin princes raped me.
Gavin Morgan
He's clearly retarded. Ignore him m8. That's what everybody irl does lol
Adam Reed
>Harder than champ
No he's not. Literally one of the easiest of the endgame bosses.
Hunter Murphy
The boss fights are the easiest they've been since DeS.
>died a good 14 times to Rom >10 or so to gherman >somehow manage to die about 5 times to vicar amelia on each playthrough
>beat pontif second try >princes second >soul of cinder first
I think even Nashandra was a less shit final boss.
Adrian Edwards
the trick with cinder is to pipe him down asap in the first phase. stay in his face, circle strafe constantly and punish everything with 2 hits. dont let him go magic or scimitar if you can avoid it. his attack in SS mode and phase 2 are telegraphed like crazy. its just circle strafe with your shield up. dodge at the right times, punish with SS r1 spamming
twin princes first phase is incredibly easy. he telegraphs every attack with a teleport and his weapon art is dodged the same way his regular attacks are: roll to your right when you see it coming
phase 2 just involves circle strafing to get at the fuccboi on the back. same shit for the sword guy's attacks, easy telegraphed and avoided with the proviso that you have to dodge 2 or 3 times on the weapon art because theres 2 ranged attacks now. if the fuccboi puts all those magic orbs in the sky just strafe around the pillars in the room to have them absorb the hits until you can get back in his face
i beat both bosses twice with a combined 6 tries and no summons
Jeremiah Scott
Oh yeah, I'm OP here forgot to mention I summoned for almost all fights didnt want to mess up questlines you see
Benjamin Perez
Real OP here. No summons, sorry. Git gud tho.
Ryan Watson
I think Bloodborne players found DaS3 much easier than people that hadn't played BB.
Imo BB had much harder bosses in general than DaS3, especially the DLC and CD bosses. However DaS3 had harder standard enemies than BB.
Justin Bell
>However DaS3 had harder standard enemies than BB.
Those shark dudes are harder than any other regular souls enemy.
Levi Watson
true but there's only like 5 of them in the whole game
Joseph Taylor
Here's how mine went, pretty similar.
Iudex Gundry >First try Vordt >First try Curse Rotted Greatwood >Third try Abyss Watchers >Third or fourth try Lord Wolnir >First try Crystal Sage >Second try Deacons >First try Old Demon King >Second try Yhorm the Giant >First try Pontiff >Second try Aldrich >Fourth try Dancer >Second try Dragonslayer >Second try Lothric Princes >Around 4 Oceiros >Second try Champion Gundyr >Third try Ancient Wyvern >Second try Nameless King >7-8 tries Soul of Cinder >10+ tries
Jaxson Reyes
I don't fucking care about how many tries it took for you. Go blog about it somewhere else.
Charles Evans
>I don't fucking care about how many tries it took for you good job clicking the thread then lol. dumb cuckold.
Cooper Morales

Mason Barnes
>>somehow manage to die about 5 times to vicar amelia on each playthrough have you considered gitting gud? amelia is a bitch.
Landon Diaz
lmao actually making a thread to stroke your epeen like anyone fucking cares about your "achievements" in a single player game. KYS
Noah Stewart
>KYS thats really mean user I hope you dont mean it.
Gabriel Powell
Oceiros is very easy if you take a poke and roll approach he starts running into walls and shit and you can basically just hit him once or twice roll/jump back and then roll away from the nearest wall and he more either do his area attack which you should be out of range for then/or he will do his pouch charge which as long as you watch him you can just roll as soon as he turns about
Granted this is assuming you are like most smart players and don't use auto lock at all. Much like Bloodborne bosses autolock will get you killed more than help when facing Pontiff, Dancer, Lothric, Nameless King and Oceiros
Really the trick is when you first enter a boss room is to just survive and watch movements. Don't attack, don't cast/throw items, just stay alive and watch for patterns. When you get them at half health back the fuck off again and repeat step one and just watch for patterns.
These games really help force you to stop charging in like a tard trying to do max damage asap.
