DS1 parry -> instant riposte. Fast, feels good.
DS2 parry -> wait for them to fall on their ass -> realise you can't even fucking riposte until the land-on-ass animation has ended -> never parry again!

DS2 parry turns into something you do to get a bit of breathing space, or you end up raping RB and prodding things to death with that.

Funny thing is I'm not all that into parries, roll all day etc, but it's nice knowing the option is there & that it doesn't suck... Unless it's DS2. ;)

no reason to parry unless you are in pvp, and if you are in pvp...

parry -> do laps while they fall on their ass -> do the \o/ emote -> weapon switch to your mundane dagger -> stab them

Funny you say that because a lot of areas are open :3 I wouldn't say dks2 is trash but it's not as good as 1 in a lot of ways.

YES! That's about it.

Ignoring DS2, PC gamer have gave the game a bit of a poke (sadly on PS4)


<Erf> SkulFuk: gf just made a toilet sniffing joke at me
<Erf> i think
<Erf> i think i hate you
Not going to watch it because I've heard there's huge spoilers in the cutscene at the beginning of the game which some people might prefer to see themselves but I've heard only good things about the actual gameplay in that video. I'm extremely pleased by the stuff I'm hearing.

Well, what can you even judge from a video like that, that guy is clearly scrub.

There's way too much reuse from BB, the game barely even looks like DKS anymore.

SP attacks seem cute for minmax, but sacrificing an entire estus charge isn't great...

And yes that vid has a lot of spoilers XD

Preordered the collectors edition (just because Ive always wanted one). Personally want another darksouls 1 with some of the mechanics from darksouls 2. Loved powerstances as an example. Really dont want weapon duribility to be a chuck of butter on a stick, or teleporting back and forth to level up. Or having to go through 2 sets of chat to level up.

But the hype is real because eother way Im a looser. Had to get it for ps4 though because my pc is shit.

Some interesting stuff!
I think powerstance doesn't exist in DKS3? I've seen people using 2 weapons in 1 slot so I'm guessing "dual swords" counts as 1 weapon and you can't mix and match. Not sure that it was in mp bet tho.

I've seen people poise break dancer with sword, so I don't think poise is as big a deal as in other games. If you can stun with sword, imagine what you can do with dual clubs...
