>that first time you beat Simon and Garfunkel

Oh look, it's a picture of what you'll never enjoy IRL.

I know

...

>killing ornstein first
fucking turbo pleb

Sublimely memed

But seriously, the only reason I "got gud" at DS to begin with is because I was with a friend and we played DS3 for like 3-4 hours.

All the game is is a timesink, it's a waste of time. There's no skill.

>trying this hard to fit in

Git Gud kid.

>DS hate is fitting in
Delusional.

>summoning

this

Sup Forums is full of casual shitters. Who'd have though?

>fight against two overpowered and unclear attacking enemies
>"if you summon you're the problem, not the game"
Delusional

If you summon, you're a filthy fucking casual. Just accept it and get on with your life.

>beat them pretty easily the first time
>spent what felt like hours pelting firebombs at mega mcdonalds for the first ng+

IMAGE SEARCH HAS FAILED

I NEED THAT SAUCE

BUMP

THIS THREAD WILL NOT DIE UNTIL I GET IT, YOU HEAR ME?

doesn't change the fact that its still artificial difficulty and shit game design

anor londo as a whole was a fucking mess of this shit. from the rafters in the painting room, the archers, the faggot spear knights that one shot you, and a 1v2 boss fight when the entire game was fucking designed around 1v1. it's easily the weakest part of the entire game

google "yode nishodu shino deru"

Defiled chalice dungeons

you're shit game design

...

Git gud

...

NOTHING

Started playing Dark Souls recently, is there any plot in this game? I've defeated Capra Demon and I'm in the Depths right now, but this whole game feels like killing and exploring with almost no story.

Did you skip the intro and not talk to Oscar?

I NEED IT NOW

Read the item descriptions

There is no story
There are quests related to some npcs like Solair but neither souls games have story

Item description fags can fuck off

Read item descriptions.
Talk to everyone you meet. Multiple times.

Boom. There's your plot.

>1/2
ONE FUCKING JOB

We are only here for the sauce. Might as well as give it to us

It's okay if you like your story to be laid out, but DS's story is catering to people who like digging for gold, so to speak. Maybe you're just in it for the gameplay.

Gimme some of that sweet sweet sauce senpai

The story is optional, look it up or read item descritions, the simplest way to put is: You're trying to save the world from a curse

>one is weak to fire
>one is weak to lightning
>ds1 pyro build only requires farming
>at this point in the game, you can at least make one lightning weapon
>fire/lightning paper
>solaire
>half of the sunbros leave their mark here
>pillars
you have no excuses

Try not to cheese. I dare you.

>clear rooms with bow
>summon whats his name
>use him as distraction
>fling poo pies
>eat the thing that takes the poison out of you
>stay away and heal
>use pillars to help
>heal as needed

Tedious is not hard

like everything else, you have to earn the plot

>still no source for this fucking gook porn

Kill yourself and i'll tell you.

Saved me having to tell them desu

...

Literally any difficulty in any game ever is artificial because all games are artificial
/thread

That's not artificial difficulty pic related is.

It's clearly Bleach porn, just look through some catalogs with Rukia as a character tag

>implying I ever watched that trash

The manga is pretty good, though the writers put themselves in a corner eventually and then they used a dumbass loophole to get out of it, didn't read much past that stupid shit

Only reason people watch it is because it's a waifu factory.

Almost any strategy game

>people wanting source for this trash artstyle

>people wanting source

Goddamn so it wasn't just me...?
>get through mk9 story mode
>beat everyone with a bit of trouble here and there but nothing serious
>final boss this nigger arrives
>WAY stronger than anyone else before, also has a fuckload of hp
>get sick of his shit and find out if you stay far away you just need to spam ranged attacks and he won't try to close the gap, but just taunt and spam javelins
First time in the arena I made it somehow but goddamn that final fight

>use hacks to warp to the bonfire that you can get to after beating them
>it doesn't exist yet
>run around the place
>Ornstien isn't where he appears during the intro cutscene
>if you jump down Smough doesn't give a shit, cutscene doesn't even start, even if you attack him
>the fight only starts if you go near the door

...

Thank you based god

I summoned solaire cause I thought I could invade with him, and kill that mitherfucker lautrec.
So when I couldn't I just went for the boss and we wiped them.
Weird that, he didn't help for shit on gorgoyles fight, and died like a bjtch.

I beat them on my first try with no prior knowledge, can somebody tell me if them being difficult is just a meme that I don't understand?

>All the game is is a timesink, it's a waste of time.

Congrats, you just figured out what all videogames ever made are.

Play a bitch thief with a short bow. Bow Biggie. Get into a long range projectile war with Biggie-Smalls. You will win.

Watch the Intro again. It spells everything out about the back story.

Talk to everyone.
Read item descriptions.
Think of your character as a detective solving a case. The case is the story of the game and you have to put the clues together.

If you don't then the ending is just a big WTF moment that will make no sense.

Artificial difficulty/unfair =/= unbeatable
It refers to design

You should be able to beat them solo at lvl 1 naked with a wooden club

Daily reinder If you played Dark souls 1 & 2 using a Greatshield you're a shitter who needs learn real timing and skill.

Great-shields turn the game into literal easy mode and you should be almost as ashamed as if you were summoning.

I summoned on my first playthough then beat them solo on NG+

what am i?

reformed

What a dumb opinion.

In 2, a greatshield is the only shield to withstand attacks after the block/stamina nerf. Add in the fact that you're often fighting 8 fuckers at the same time, normal shield is useless.

Then again, I found only after beating the game that the most painless way to play it is dual handing or two handing with max adaptility for dodges.
