I don't get what the gently caress happened between Dark Souls 2 and 3, because 2 had a character creator where you could at least make human-looking people easily. 3's is a trainwreck filled with potato-faced people.

The main thing I miss from DS2's character creator is that glorious mustache. You know the one I'm taking about.

Oh my god

I saw that thing and I kept wondering, what the gently caress is that

So somewhere along the way, I got convinced the boss of the area (I think that's Cathedral of the Deep?) would be some kind of molten gold ooze, somehow! I kept seeing Aldritch's remains, and I had been to the Smouldering Lake at that point with the fire ooze, so I thought, hell why not, sounds like a cool boss in nice contrast to the delightfully disgusting Cathedral, let's do it

Hahahaha nope

I'm also a big fan of the collision gap in Farron Swamp. People kept putting a Illusory Wall message in front of it... And they were right!

I'm partially colorblind so I'm always hesitant to criticize things over color choices, but is it just me or is impossible to make blonde hair in DS3? Like human-blonde as opposed to green or neon-yellow?

Yeah it's incredibly hard, you can get a sort of weird muted yellow-green but blonde just doesn't exist.

What are some fun/interesting weapons/builds worth basing a playthrough around? For PvE, and not a big heavy weapon, since I just wrapped up a heavy weapon run.

I just got done with a warden's twinblade playthrough and it was a blast. I figured I'd get a PvP bleed dude up and running, what surprised me is that those things absolutely destroy PvE as well, you're just a whirlwind blender. I thought it might be tricky because I figured some of the high poise and shield enemies would give me trouble but nope those things stun better than a greatsword.

Normal loadout is Sellswords, buckler, and composite bow. Pyro headband, Master's Attire, Iron Bracelets, Loincloth. ALWAYS HAVE THE UNTRUE DARK RING EQUIPPED. What's the point if you don't show up in all of your beautiful blue glory? I really wish there was a chest piece that looked nicer (or like nothing) and that there was a speedo-like legging that you could equip. But Fashionsouls can only be expected to be so good.

Unless you are in the middle of a combo, at which point kicking approaches 100% the closer it is to be a horrible time to kick.

What was your stat spread for this? I've been keen on a bleed build for a while, but don't know how to spilt dex and luck.

I could reliably pull off a guard break in DS2 (on a keyboard) about 85-90% of the time. Trying to kick in DS3 is like trying to toilet train a cat, by comparison.

The rapier might suck even worse. Though ofc you will deprive yourself of a little extra item find you can't get anywhere else if you don't make it. Though it's all about luck anyway, so I'd say go for the spell.

Neither is good but rapier comes with item find, and you don't even need the stats to wield it to take advantage of its effect.

I'm glad they removed that cartoonish baby munching because not only is it hilariously and stupidly edgy but it would be even more annoying hearing it every time than with the twin princes talking about spots on graves. It's a much better fight thematically if the baby is already dead and Oceiros is so far-gone in his madness he never accepted it than the whole invisible baby stuff people ramble all about.

Crystal Hail got buffed and is solid for PVP, bad for PVE still since the damage isn't great and it's move about controlling your enemy's movement.

But the rapier is also pretty bad. An estoc infused with crystal will be stronger and won't require scales. Only use the rapier is you just really like it. Still useful to get for farming for its item find bonus.
