its not about difficulty, it's that they are awful to fight. its a game about quick sword skills....time to slow these fuckers down....

I didn't get to experience DS2 pvp because I played when the servers were down.

I learned from my mistake and waited for them to come back for DS3 and got to experience some good wholesome Watchdogs of Faron fun.

lol have you done the ringed city dlc with the servers active. the half-light fight is either the funniest or most annoying fight of all time

Dark Souls was originally going to be called Dark Ring but was changed because it was allegedly crude British sexual slang, which I'm almost positive isn't the case but also Dark Ring sounds kinda goody so probably a good call

hell yeah it was great. Got it second try and I was pretty sure it was an NPC (named Sunflower, didn't move like a player) after the first obviously player opponent wrecked me, but according to google if it was an NPC it would have been called Halflight so I guess it was someone deliberately trying to not act like a player? Which is a neat way of doing it.

Kinda wanna redownload the game and equip spears of the church just to pvp boss.

lol if you got someone acting weird on purpose. i love that fight for that reason. when i actually get halflight i get bummed out

also sword saint isshin is literally one of the best video game fights in all of time. ive never had a boss make my hands shake before or make me feel like i actually accomplished something by the end of it

Sekiro made me think IRL about how I approach things in life, so even though it's one of the From games I have the least time in it's right at the top of the list for me, just an absolute perfect experience.

this is a game where you have lots of fun being a cool stealth shinobi sword fighter

but don’t fight them. not because they’re impossible they’re just boring.
