It's worth checking out Salt and Sanctuary. Of all the games that have tried to imitate Dark Souls, I feel that this one does the best job (albeit as a 2D platformer).

ha !

I was talking with iARDAs about it yesterday.

I am thinking about buying it on Steam. Price is all right and reviews are pretty good.

It does look really good and 2D games have been great in recent times (Rogue Legacy, Ori And The Blind Forest, Shovel Knight etc.)

I still have 20€ left on my Steam Wallet. There are no other games coming out in the next couple of months that are worth it, are there?

There are two other Souls-likes: Death's Gambit in 2017, and EITR with an unknown 2016 release date. Aside from that, the releases of Total War Warhammer, and No Man's Sky are near.

I want to feel poise again. Going to start a caestus run. Weapon art lets you poise through anything.

Lol, this is fantastic. Shows why I hate every other AAA title perfectly. And shows why I couldn't play any other game for a while after I discovered DS1.

haha it's funny yeah. But I don't hate all other AAA games. It is true though that a good deal of games are like that and want to cater to the "stupid" gamers, which are quite frankly a lot. This is where the money is at.

There are some things that wouldn't hurt Dark Souls, but for me it doesn't need to change. Some interface and explanations are ... vague, but that's fine with me.

I really hate it when a game is holding my hand like I am an idiot. It destroys the immersion. Being in the dark not knowing what to do is like life. There is no one in real life to guide you through if you aren't born into a rich family. Thats why I love Dark Souls. You feel the reward and the combat is simply perfect.

zealord · Jun 18, 2016

I was pretty surprised that there was absolutely nothing from FROM Software at E3. Not even DkS3 DLC or any remastered games

I really hoped for atleast Demon's Souls remastered but it seems like they are moving on to new projects

Just about to do the lord of cinder boss on first play. I had a hell of a time with the nameless King boss and the twin prince boss. After about 20 try's and multiple embers wasted I summoned one person each Boss even then we had a rough time. Now I'm feeling a little regretful I did it that way!

Any farming that's a must before starting ng+? I believe I have gotten most slabs.

Also how do the dlcs work if I start new game plus do I have to get to a certain point in game to play dlcs like ds2?

And lastly if I beat lord of cinder the final boss can I still farm after or does it automatically put me into NG+

If you got all the slabs and a nice heap of the other titanite types then you're good.

No info on the DLCs yet, but you probably do need to get to a certain point in the game like the previous games.

After you beat the last boss, you get the option to continue playing or go straight to NG+.

Got this during the summer sale and talk about a crash fest. I feel like I'm playing fallout 3.

Low graphics settings helped a little but still get random hard lock ups that range from any amount of playing time.

Drivers make a difference. Which version are you using?

Trestles126 · Jul 12, 2016

I haven't had any issues since the updates at first it crashed bad
