Took them outside, they still had buffers. >.>

You want a cheap way of doing it?

[Garacesh]

 

You want a cheap way of doing it?

 

What, and leading them off into a thin corridor to kill them 1-by-1 with no buffs isn't already cheap?

[X-13]

Nope. Because the buffs don't time out.

 

And leading them into the corridor is called "using the terrain to your advantage".

 

The cheap way is using OP items.

[Tesla]

Enlighten me, Oh Great Dark Souls Player.

[Garacesh]

Indeed it is. It's also known as 'Not playing by the spirit of the game', or 'cheap' for short

[Tesla]

I'd wager at my player's level it would be nigh on impossible to do it by running into the room they're all in and slashing your way through.

[X-13]

Enlighten me, Oh Great Dark Souls Player.

 

Lead them into the corridor and use firebombs. 2 or 3 should kill most of them.

 

[THAT is cheap.]

Small-ish room + 15 enemies + 1 with an unblockable OHKO attack + set up in a way to literally surround you... You're totally meant to just run in.

 

Well... You are meant to just run in. The first time.

 

Then you learn not to do that, because it's stupid.

 

I'd wager at my player's level it would be nigh on impossible to do it by running into the room they're all in and slashing your way through.

 

It's hard to do that at any level. Yeah, you can kill a lot of stuff in 1 hit later on... but against a mob? You're gonna have a bad time.

 

Dark Souls isn't that sort of game.

[Tesla]

Ahh Firebombs. i do believe that they're something i don't currently possess....

[X-13]

Ahh Firebombs. i do believe that they're something i don't currently possess....

 

Then you missed an item.

 

There are black firebombs [the upgraded version] in one of the houses before the first black knight.

[Tesla]

No no, you misunderstand, i have probably already used them [think, bore]

[X-13]

Oh... then you're going to have to git gud.

 

 

The temptation to just come down and show you how to do it is pretty strong...

[Tesla]

Maybe the blacksmith will have some normal ones for sale.......

[X-13]

Nah, I think Uchigatana guy does though. [Way back in undead burg.]

[Garacesh]

Oh... then you're going to have to git gud.

You seem to be giving this advice a lot..

 

Stop tempting me to buy Dark Souls! xD

[X-13]

Git Dark Souls.

[Tesla]

One of us. One of us. One of us.

[Garacesh]

Git Dark Souls.

 

Git me Dark Souls.

[X-13]

Git me Dark Souls.

 

Git it yourself.

[Garacesh]

Git it yourself.

 

Nu.

(Okay, we're breaching into the realms of spam now so I'm going to stop.)

 

Did they fix the really terrible controls yet? I've heard a lot of complaints about bad controls.

[X-13]

Keyboard + mouse?

 

Nope. As for as I know, they're still bad.

 

A controller is better though.

[Garacesh]

Nope, heard plenty of complaints about controller controls, too. (Also minor gripes about how the mouse pointer doesn't disappear, etc)

 

Maybe it's just my housemate et-al being whiny, but apparently the game often decides that what you told it to do isn't the appropriate action to take, and instead does something else.

The mouse pointer is fixed with a mod. Its not really a good port... but it works.

 

I've had input problems once in all the time I've been playing...

Blah, I don't really feel too keen on supporting a game that has to be fixed by its paying customers..
