So..... i recently beat the Game for the first time and im currently already re-playing it.

I recently took this survey you are being "thrown at random".

When it came to the Favorite Character, i was a bit confused. The thing is: i can totally see, why most people would choose Connor. I can totally understand why Connor is VERY likeable.

But Markus only after Kara? And only so few choose Markus?

Come on, dude.

No one can take away the (at least in my opinion) literal two strongest scences in the game from Marcus:

His Protest and his March.

Without a Joke, those two missions are so fucking Genius.

For the Protest (I choose a peacful one) i thonk its obvious. Once you free them: "Jericho: Leader" and the "draw our sign", "I think, so i am"

And the March explicitly, how Marcus just points at Androids and they just Join. And the music and the Atmosphere.

Both scenes are so fucking Genius, AND (i couldn't think of a better word for these two scenes)

they felt....... prohetical.

And by the way, no one cwn take the whole Final Missions away from Marcus

Like, i got in, and there was not much time until i wanted to go back again. The enemies are WAY too vicious. THOSE FUCKING SPINNING-WHEEL-SKELETONS, I ALMOST LOST MY SHIT OVER THEM.

and once i finally got through everything, when Priscilla asked me just to leave, i hqppily followed. I didn't want to kill her, i just wanted out.

I have grabbed all the Items. If you don't fight Priscilla, what really is the point of this seperate Dimension?

So, other than that i make many mistakes in this fight, that i just need to learn, and that Ornstein is way to fast and DOESN'T FUCKING LET ME HIT A SKNGLE TIME WITHOUT HITTING ME SOMETIMES!!!!!!

Like i said, other than that, i don't get how to avoid smoughs ram attack. When he runs towards me and swings his hammer in the air, he hits me 99% of the time, no matter what i do.

The only instance where he doesn't get me with that, is when i hide behind a pillar, how several guides for this fight sugested. Problem is, doesn't always work because Ornstein from time to time just jumps around the fucking pillar.

Until know i had like 30 tries and only manged to get Smough down to about 35% health, sadly with reducing my Estus to like 4.

So, this may sound really weird.

It began then, when i first played Dark souls 1.

I played 60 Hours, trying to get ANY-FUCKING-WHERE. I didn't even get the second boss.

I swore to never touch it again.

So now, 10 years later, 4 days ago, i started randomly again, in Dark Souls remastered.

In only 20 hours i fucking beat the FUCKING CAPRA DEMON IN ONLY 7 TRIES!

No, i didn't touch any other Souls like or games with similar difficulty

I got a few tipps from someone who already beat the game, thats all.

I can't fucking believe this myself but im actually learning.

And im starting to get it, why people love dark souls.

Its Organic, its so WELL-DESIGNED, and actually, its 50 % skill, 50 % situative playing.

That being said, i just got whopped my ass by the gaping dragon xD

But im not giving up this time. Im too far in.

And im actually having fun xD

Am i the only one, or is something like that actually common for this game?
