red soapstone on the iron keep bridge and summon into a fight club which has a nice set of etiquette rules here: http://darksouls2.wiki.fextralife.com/Fight+Club
generally, one or two pairs of people will square off and fight to the death, giving souls to all the red summons who are living at the time, or souls+effigy if you're the host. my two main weapons are powerstanced spotted whips infused with poison, which is I think the highest poison proc weapon in the game at that point. i also am wearing a ring and gauntlets that increase said poison damage. once i proc poison on the opponent, i switch to dual powerstanced manakin claws to stunlock and whittle them down until the poison does it's duty and renders them a scared husk. if they ever get outside of the short range claws or long range whips, i punish with poison throwing knives, keeping their poison buildup from going down before it can reach 100% and proc 1200-ish damage. in the third fight i'm smashing the guy's shield with a specific attack to drain his stamina, which, upon reaching zero during block, stuns him and opens him for a special attack which i use to murder him. generally the build's entire strategy is to psych out the opponent enough to make a mistake and then punish with poison, then, when they're panicking, take out the claws and get in their face mercilessly until death. the only reason i died in the last fight is because i was really cocky and didn't roll nearly enough to compensate for his swings. otherwise it would have played out like the second fight. all in all it's the best fun to be had in the game imo. good spectator sport as well.
e: oh yeah, the reason why it looks like the host is getting in the way all the time is bc he's summoning people from their signs which we can't see as invaders

i dont like the katanas but thats because my mode for souls games now a days is to just go for a sort of Venetian knight aesthetic. like a master duelist from a 16th century Italian merchant republic was transported to a fantasy land and damned if he knows whats going on but he certainly knows which end of the rapier is good for killing

i tried to explain to my friends who game why they needed to play these games and they expressed some very disheartening sentiments about how they don't like that if you die you lose your stuff. i tried to get across that the stuff is just flowing all the time, you will seldom register the loss after a certain point but i think their taste for challenging games is dimming and that sucks.

It's too late they've breached the third game. Serpentine indeed.

monhun fights are better thanany dark souls boss and also they take actual skill because your dodge roll doesnt have 15 frames of invincibility and they last longer than 30 seconds

monster hunter's really a superior game all around for letting you use the big hammers from the start.

monster hunter for me does not suffer from inferior mechanics but instead the staggering lack of fluidity. In a souls game every control feels like the natural extension of the input device and my human body. In monster hunter from time to time it has felt like you are battling the controls or are at least constrained by them.

I have no idea why they thought it was at all useful to force you to invest 15ish points into a stat depending on starting class to return your dodge roll to baseline functionality

Yeah I'm probably going to end up pumping all the evasive poo poo and equip load before I bother deciding if I want to try str/fth or int/dex this go around. Str/fth sounds more fun though since I'll try to sunbro as much as I can because redoing boss fights is fun.

the math on it is weird too where there is just a break point around 25ish adp where it scales up or down on your armor exactly like it did in the first game I have no idea what the hell they were trying to accomplish

I got softbanned in Dark Souls 2 and then that ban carried over to Scholars when it came out, so I haven't been able to play Dark Souls in way too long. That's why I'm so excited for 3.

I got Monster Hunter 4 on my 3ds but I can't get in to it because there's way too much time spent running from point A to point B and I don't want to spend my precious video gaming minutes traveling and grinding the same thing over and over for crafting materials. The fights are fun though.

Actually I just remembered how the bosses will run away to different zones, forcing you to do even more running around, and plus the weapon sharpness mechanic is really annoying, so I guess the fights aren't that fun.

after a few hours you get your farm set up and you dont have to gather anymore aside from a few specific bugs and things
When does that happen? I like the game aside from the tedium and time spent doing nothing fun or exciting. I played through all of the 1 and 2 star quests in the (first?) town.

Cool, both parts of that sound cool. I'll go back to it when I'm done playing Fire Emblem.
Is anyone else playing the new Fire Emblem? I can't figure out how to unlock the third campaign, I bought Rebirth and then got the DLC version of Conquest, the third one is still grayed out on the campaign selection screen and I'm prompted to buy it on the Unlock Campaigns screen, but when I hit unlock it loads the e-store then tells me no DLC is available and returns me to the game.
