Dark Souls

[Solitude]

There's a couple of threads about Dark Souls on MyGaming and they are all in the wrong place. There's one for console gaming and there's one for PC gaming and there's news related threads and hell there's probably one in Off Topic too.

So instead of performing thread necromancy I will create this new, more improved thread that covers all of the other.

See, Zero Punctuation finally reviewed Dark Souls! Yay! Two of my favourite things!

So those who still need to play it and want to find out why it's good and for those who have already played it and remember it fondly:

I've basically just started after it's been lurking at me in my Steam library for ages now...... it's hard

Am I the only person that finds Zero Punctuation exceptionally annoying?

I also bought it on Steam sale and I haven't installed it.

All this talk and threads about Dark Souls... I think I'm going to pop in my Disc today and continue.

There's something I wanted to confirm. That ring you get that makes you 99% immune to lava, would that ring work against fighting the HellKite Dragon?

I only thought of this fact after I finished, but by then in the 2nd playthrough the ring was no longer there.

[Murph]

I have no idea what you're talking about.

[Iam3G]

Then I suggest you start playing it

For the ninth time you mean? What's the third boss in the game - that one - never got past him.
And for some reason I struggled insanely with the Taurus Demon. I had nightmares about him.

Dude, when I first encountered the Taurus Demon my stomach turned into a knot and my arse made like a rabbit's nose.

Bosses in order (from what I can remember):
1. Asylum Demon
2. Hellkite Dragon
3. Bell Gargoyles
4. That big ass Moth
5. Capra Demon

Well then again, it depends on which route you take? Since your 3rd boss could have been different for me?
