aonly question remianing on whether this is better than bloodborne or not is the weapon feel once i get somethng better than the warrior starting battleaxe, the level design is loving bonkers good so far

The look of everything is cool but the combat in BB is so much slicker. Maybe I'll get a better weapon, but I miss gun parrying and the sound it makes. Fishing for backstabs doesn't compare in the slightest

in the first level there's a secret weapon that will trash the entire early game, much like the drakesword from dks1 but you have to fight something super hard for it lol

Is this the axe or is it whatever the blue knight is guarding?

Ugh so if you don't find an npc before a certain level they die and you can't get them anymore. I hate things like that.

DS3 first few bosses feel like mid to late game bosses in the other souls games. I wonder how crazy it's gonna get

Ill be taking a break for now, reached the undead settlement. Seems like a good game so far, obviously, but i need to get further in and see harder/more interesting enemies i think.

Its just, im remembering how insanely impossible Gascoigne felt, and the struggle to kill him took forever. I think it was 7 hours before I beat a boss in Bloodborne, and you couldnt level up until you did. i felt incredibly strong after finally conquering him. in dark souls III i stood underneath another really big enemy and walked forward and killed it. underwhelming in comparison. here's looking forward to undead settlement

Comparing it to other souls games makes more sense, thinking of Vordt as the Undead Burg boss, still kinda teaching you the ropes, and as tightly designed as the level is its just another castle level, same as 1-1, the burg, etc. I bet the later areas get way way cooler as they always do.

That being said I dont know. I never found a key for it. There is one area i never went though, the little stairs right where the dragon is perched, that look like they lead to a landing and an entrance to the tower he is chillin on
