its actually very bad!

that you are a massive faggot

dont level adaptability, it sucks

Play it blind and don't listen to Zig Forums
This applies to any game you will ever think about playing

except for me, DARK '''souls''' 2 is trash.

Nice try, faglord. Adaptability being essential lis literally the only thing I know about the game.

I posted a thread about DS1 and got some pretty good recommendations without any spoilers.

Play it blind.
I think the game is absolute shit and I hate it but you should make your own opinions user.

>No class option for a pyromancer
wtf this game is shit

Can't decide between Warrior or Bandit. I was a dex boy in DaS, but I never used bow much.

Majula is a nice place to stay after a hard boss.

Best hub area in the history of vidya.

As much as it pained me, DEX is better for this game.

Got it, so going with Swordsman.

I never used pyromancies much in DaS past Smough and Ornstein anyway.

A lot of the dex weapons are good, plus being able to use a bow helps with the hoards of enemies.

Get 42 STR and powerstance Large Club + Great Club

Why dual wield? Seems like a waste of double handing, and attacking with both weapons seems just as fast as attacking with one weapon one-handed?

Don't go in expecting Dark Souls

OK nevermind, I see the benefit. No clinking off of right-hand walls with left-handed weapon, and attack speeds/reach vary drastically.

Already it feels weird and different. Movement feels more floaty than DaS.

ADP aside level some VIT since the stamina recovery dependes on your weight load.
Also Rat Covenant best covenant

that its a shit game but who knows you might appreciate it

It's one of those games where it's fun enough but doesn't live up to the series it belongs to, like Bethesda fallout games.

You're playing a pre-alpha build.

Don't level Vit if you want to use Flyns Ring.

>Not using 42 STR to power stance greatswords

prepare yourseòf for ugly ps2 level graphics

I actually find it quite beautiful. The lighting is a bit whack sometimes.

Majula is comfy as fuck

Majula really is the best hub.

i went strength with big swords and heavy armour and found the game pretty easy

This DaS shit is so fucking annoying, just say DS1, DS 2, DS3 and spell out fucking Demon's Souls.

i'm sure there's more important things to get angry about

>>No class option for a pyromancer
yeah this shit annoyed me so much, pyro for life

The combat feels so weird and different in this game. The second ogre is wrecking my shit, even though I beat the first one no problem. It's strange.
