Whatcha been playing?

Still on a break from elden ring dlc. This week I played the metroidvania called 'Islets'. Really fun and short game with Great movement and fun bosses. Def recommend checking it out.

Also been playing more Pokemon emerald rogue v2!

Dark Souls Remastered. Just hit the halfway point (Anor Londo), upgraded to Great Scythe +15 and things are starting to look up. Now the toughest opponent I'm encountering is gravity.

Impeccable taste, DS1 Great Scythe has such a fantastic moveset. Is it your first time playing?

[–] eezeebee@lemmy.ca 4 points 3 months ago (1 children)

That your first time with Dark Souls? I played it for the first time on that remaster a couple of years back. I remember those goddamn Anor Londo archers being maybe the only thing in the game that pissed me off so much I had to quit and come back. Damn near EVERYTHING in that game feels “tough but fair” e

First time playing DS1, yes!

I hope you're enjoying it, that first blind playthrough is quite magical. First half of DS1 is just a masterclass in level design. No other game has made me so excited to find a shortcut.

Damn near EVERYTHING in that game feels "tough but fair" except for those fucking archers.

First time playing DS1. I'm trying to keep it mostly a blind first playthrough, but I have had to look up help after trying my best and giving up in a few spots - including those archers.

Like how I wandered all the way down to Tomb of Giants extremely early, no lantern drop, no Lordvessel. The Pinwheel fight was so easy that I thought I must be going the right direction.

ahaha i think those are the exact two places where i looked things up. did you have a moment where you beat the archers, but then fell off the ledge on accident before you got to the next checkpoint. i did....

Yes, same with every other ledge lol
