Seath

Why does Seath have a library of millions of books he can't even read? Yes, I know Gwyn made him duke or whatever (duke of what, exactly, dukes own land and collect taxes from it, he just has a tower that probably smells like body odor?), that's not the question. Why does Seath have a library at all? He's blind and he can't even traverse the passageways or use the stairs or use the elevator, he's too damn big to even open the books. And lets say somehow he CAN see and he CAN traverse the passageways and stairs and elevators, he still can't read, he's a dragon, he's illiterate. There is only 1 language across all 3 games, you see the script of said language in summon signs (lowkey looks like if Hebrew and Mandarin were in a blender) and all we've seen Seath do is scream so I'd assume that's ALL he can do and thus he's illiterate. Lets say he IS literate and is NOT blind, at his size could YOU read the print of a human-scale book? No.

The Duke's Archives is a fantastic area with a very cool cave at the end and a cool-looking easy boss, but it makes NO sense.

The Warrior Set's lack of poise really bothers me

The whole thing only gives you 5 poise, FIVE! And that's just the helm! The rest provides no poise whatsoever. The set is quite heavy and the game describes it as thick leather armor, but there are clearly some pieces of plate here and there. Still, it provides less poise than the HOLLOW WARRIOR SET. HOW!? Did From just forget to give it some poise?

Well, that won't ever happen again.

Managed to accidently pull off a double parry, now I can finally put the game down for good.

Yes, let’s go look at the secret hole over there. I’m right behind you

What's something you do immediately on new playthroughs?

Personally I go after the three free Firekeeper souls in Undead Burg, New Londo Ruins and Blighttown. Ruins is probably the easiest one to grab in my experience after I naturally chose the Master Key for my starting gift. Blighttown is the absolute hardest one to grab, since I was so low level I was getting killed extremely easily. I also go and grab the items in the graveyard, the three items by the skeleton dragon and kill the gold armor fuck that kills the Firekeeper after I free him for the ring I never take off. Though I just recently learned that he can help with the Gaping Dragon. What about you?

Help meeeee... I killed an npc!

I'm playing Dark Souls for the first time. I made a valiant endurance and faith based knight as my character... I killed the endearing crazy undead merchant in Undead Burg for his Uchigatana. It turns out I don't even need it. Now I feel sick every time I look at my character or the menu. I have to live for that decision for the rest of my life. Maybe the honorable thing would be to roll this character off a cliff and delete it and restart the game as a thief... 🫥

Easily the worst weapon in the whole game?

  1. 1% drop rate so it's extremely rare
  2. Terrible maximum damage
  3. Can't be buffed
  4. Garbage Range
  5. Completely Outclassed by its sibling the Jagged Ghost Blade, especially because the latter has bleed damage

With this character, I’ve get every single piece of armour in the game. And I did it for one reason only: so that you can suggest your own fashion souls to me!

What game should I play

Just wondering what souls like I should play next, I’ve beaten Elden ring on ng+4 now and I’ve played bloodbourne I’m kind of in between Sekiro ds1 or ds3. Thanks.

Is there a character (npc) in FromSoftware games that if you kill you are fucked?

Andre wooping your ass if you attack him is one example but im more interested in consequence after you kill a character. For example losing access to important shop or progression in the game gets significantly harder.

Im interested from a developer perspective. How far were devs able to go with the punishment without making the game impossible to beat.

Which one should I play first

Our Steam Family have both Dark Souls Remastered and Prepare to Die Edition. I recently finished the Elden Ring and Sekiro. Which edition should I play first?.

Non fiction books that feel like Dark Souls?

Basically the title. Quite full of fiction and looking forward to read some mythology/anthropology/religion/philosophy books that merge well into DS world.

Thanks!
