IGN... seriously? People take their tests into consideration... really?kyubajin said:IGN review diary part 2Truth is, Dark Souls isn't fun, 95% of the time. It's the other 5% that you play for.

worldrevolution said:Sticking with my pyro. Tutorial done. But man..not liking how you perform kick/jump attack. It rarely comes out.
worldrevolution said:Pyro seems to be the battle mage starter. You get slow/powerful spells and decent melee stats. Perhaps he is the royal of this game? Only 8 initial charges on your beginner spell.
And within the first 10 seconds of reaching the beginning of the game I've had a ton of questions answered regarding certain things. Really awesome..for those who want to know:
Essentially right at the beginning is a guy offering a covenant to learn miracles, so it seems every class can learn magic but perhaps it's limited by your current covenant as there's a warning saying your other covenants will be overwritten.
Charges are just that; depending on the spell and your stats/level, you can cast each of your memorized spells a certain number of times. As far as we know, resting at a bonfire is the only way to replenish them.Drewfonse said:Can you replenish charges with potions? Only bonfires? I'm confused about the limited use of spells.
Two at a time, just like Demon's Souls. I'd assume the overall number of rings in-game is higher.jyx said:Do anybody know how many rings one can obtain in Dark Souls?
ironcreed said:In other words, betrayal is going to be a bitch, lol. Even more diabolical threats stacked upon the insanity that is already there.
Thief is going to be awfully squishy and won't be all that powerful, so it will teach you how to retreat, dodge, and sneak.Roklie said:I'm so bad at deciding which starting class too choose. For a melee character should I go with a Knight or thief?
worldrevolution said:Oh man enemies come at you hard in this game. They see you from afar and just run right at you. I'm talking starter stuff. Love it.
Canova said:This is Ninja Gaiden RPG
worldrevolution said:The good news is all the stuff up until that point is outrageously hard. If I hadn't played DS I'd be like wtf at the starter section.
Because you had a Quality Knight Sword +5 equipped in your left hand, right?The_Monk said:Haha, nice.
If I didn't have so many great titles on October and November I would had considered to buy a second controller for this game. Simply because I spent 99% of my time pressing the L1 button on Demon's Souls..True story

Knight has a buttload of HP and is more of a straight up melee combatant. The armor makes you less likely to flinch when you get hit, but also hampers your ability to dodge.
Knight is probably more beginner-friendly, Thief would be a trial by fire.
Okay I will probably start off as a knight then, it would've been my first choice anyway (I played as a temple knight in DS).Orayn said:Thief is going to be awfully squishy and won't be all that powerful, so it will teach you how to retreat, dodge, and sneak.

worldrevolution said:Wow..so..I just did exactly what I did in DS with Patches on two seperate runs..hit a fucking npc by mistake. Coming around a corner, see some boxes, swing, NPC behind them, instantly attacks me and the game saves. There goes that file down the drain! This is super in the beginning but holy shit I am gonna have to restart. If there's one thing I hate about these games..it's this. The instant auto save gives you no chance whatsoever. Sigh.

Zeliard said:They're taking the "single-player with multiplayer features" concept and just fucking running with it.
Drewfonse said:Have you felt like you are running out of spell charges frequently? I'm concerned about limited spell usage, and I may end up playing as a Knight, but the Pyromancer just sounds so right up my alley.
The_Monk said:For anyone playing: can you get a bow/crossbow early in this game? Because I want to go melee all over again (don't know what's wrong with me) but I would like to have some ranged attack to grab the enemies attention.
That is so awesome.chris-013 said:Stats change some gameplay element :dex > 35 you can backflip like a ninja !

oroboros said:Depending on the class you play you get a bow during the beginning tutorial. I'm playing hunter class and I got a bow a few minutes in as starting gear. Also got a crossbow drop around an hour and a half in. I think the thief and a couple other classes might start with a bow also.
I think that spell only lasts as long asHamPster PamPster said:My question is what happens ifyou enter the other person's world and can't kill them. Are you just stuck with the curse the rest of the game?
Hopefully there are other ways to end it or maybe you can summon someone from your covenant to fight for you

teh_J0kerer said:Man this game is so good. Playing in Japanese is ok for me for the most part.. I understand enough to get the idea of what most messages are trying to tell me, and most basic stats.
But there's a lot of stuff that's a bitch and I just don't get. Like the covenants. I've met some characters who tell me they want to make a covenant or something, and then there's a bunch of info in japanese that I cant figure out. Also I have no idea what a lot of the items do. I need a guide for this kind of stuff, but I also don't want any spoilers...
There are some returning weapons, but we don't know just how many. I would expect theBLagiver said:Where the combat was for me in demon souls was a mixture of melee, magic, and bows. Are weapons from demon souls in this game like dragon long sword and dark knight shield and such and how does the forging weapons work this time?
