Playing as a Knight, because the armor looked cool. Don't know if its a good character or not, all I know is that I suck at this game, and my ass was handed to me thoroughly kicked many times. Yet, even though I died like a billion times in the opening mission, I can't get the game out of my head.

Haha that's great! I'm so keen to get started again. And don't worry, it's not you that sucks at the game, it's the game that beats the crap out of everyone. :)
 
Got the DSfix working yesterday and sorted out the issue with my DS4 controller. Then I couldn't resist finishing the tutorial area :D.

I thought the DS4 would have worked seamlessly? It's plug-and-play after all.

Not for all games though.

I use the DS4Windows tool. Had to enable "Hide DS4" otherwise my character would spin endlessly. Plus some of the buttons were mapped incorrectly.

Guess it could be as a result of Japanese controllers having X and O swapped (I think). At any rate, I think the issue lies with DS works with recognising direct inputs, hence drivers causing issues.

[MENTION=4071]BeoTeK[/MENTION] has already gotten a glimpse of how react playing it. He was with me on TS during my first few moments in the game....needless to say it was full of colourful language and loud shrills and screams.
 
[MENTION=22]Deceptor[/MENTION] I also use the DS4 controller but I use InputMapper (used to be DS4 tool) instead of DS4Windows. I've had issues with DS4Windows with some games, but InputMapper has worked perfectly from the start. I also downloaded a PS UI texture so I don't see Xbox prompts the whole time.

I am dumbstruck with this games performance it runs like shit on my machine disabled motion blur and aa in game reduced most settings in dsfix still bad.

If I unlock the framelimiter I get very bad screen tearing.

Just to be safe I disabled all AA via the GeForce control panel for the game (sure you can do the same with AMD). Coupled with the latest DSFix and opting into the Steam beta for the game (saw somewhere to do this). I haven't had any performance issues at all. Have you tried some googling for solution?

I'm sorry to hear that Talentloos. I hope your dad is alright and that he recovers completely.
 
I'm sitting here, looking at the game in my library, and I am itching to play it. What the hell did you guys do to me??

This is a really cool idea. Pity I uninstalled the game just last week. :(
I'll reinstall tonight and see if I get time to commit. Only Souls game I've never finished.

I haven't played DS1 in a while, but from what I remember Knight was one of the easier starting classes. You just need to get a good shield and learn to manage stamina while strafing enemies and countering their attacks. If you get one of the Greatshields, it becomes really easy.

I've played all three and I always go Knight for the first playthrough until I get the hang of all the bosses. Don't get too hung up on armor either. Get something that can tank a few blows, but is still light enough to allow you to roll somewhat.

Also, important note for everyone: if you're killing enemies you're doing something right. Lots of DS veterans will tell you you're playing the game wrong if you cheese enemies, but that's bollocks. It doesn't matter how you kill something, only that you do. I have never killed the second boss any other way than camping the top of the tower and throwing bombs on its head.

Haha I'm also very keen to play. Tomorrow we start! :D I think the next [MyGame] we should start a day or two after the thread is created.
