Gameplay of ds3 looks really loving good. It's hard to explain. I remember halo reach footage looking insanely good next to halo 3. That's how ds3 feels.

In Training posted:I thought they functioned pretty similar. Tbh I've never actually seen footage of the game, just what people have said about it its not as dramatic a difference as transformation is, it's more like a couple extra moves. it still looks sweet though

A little motif in the opening cinematic: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cKk6XqcmB4Q roughly 1:30-1:35 that isn't used until Living Failures: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=v_8t5ay0-YU Game is Good.

tumor looking batty posted:i still can't beat orphan's second form. it's killing me because I've gotten so close Update: Yesterday I had 1 hour of VideoGame Time and I used it all trying to beat Orphan and I did not beat orphan Honestly I'm having fun though. I'm geting better at the fight and I get backstabs on him regularly now in phase 1, phase 2 just seems random whether I do well or not. I tried using Whirligig +10 for most of my tries, got him down really low a couple of times. Tonitrus doesn't do enough damage to him. I got so frustrated with Whirligig I bought a bloodstone and went and made +10 Saw Cleaver, the quick attacks are nice but I didn't realize how much I was relying on the occasional Whirligig staggering him. I tried beast blood pellets for a bit but it just means when I gently caress up a dodge I die instantly which is reaaaaally frustrating in phase 2 when he attacks everywhere at the same time. Normally I'd go to something else but I have nothing left to do in NG besides: Get Rakuyo (no thx), beat Laurence, beat Orphan. I tried Laurence for a bit and I'd rather fight Orphan. It's getting to the point where I think I'm gonna go grind souls for a while and get more VIT. I guess people complained the main game was too easy and that's why the DLC is like this but I just bought the game recently.

In what order should I do stuff in Scholar of the first sin if I want to see "everything?" Will this endgame order work: Throne Watcher + Defender (for the moonlight sword quest guy) Dragon Aerie+shrine Talk to Vendrick Giant memories DLC 1, 2, 3 Talk to Vendrick Beat Vendrick Nashandra New boss ??

You can't do throne watcher defender until after you do all the Giants memories for the Vendrick debuffs but other than that it will work

Did they move Vendrick to the throne fight or something? I.N.R.I posted:nothing else is missable, but make sure u beat vendrick before u light all the primal bonfires if you want the new last boss. Well I screwed that up, but how can you fight Vendrick before lighting the bonfires though? Did they change his defense vs giant souls?

The way I'm thinking is: Do W&D for the last Benhart(the guy with the fake moonlight sword) fight so I can get his gear and trophy in the giant memory, then do the DLC so I can get the crowns and talk to Vendrick with them, then kill Vendrick for the trophy (I think there is one), then kill Nashandra and then the new boss which I'm told you need to kill Vendrick to spawn.

If the memories don't close that should totally. I also didn't know you could talk to vendrick, is that new with the DLC?

Yeah apparently if you have the kinship(? the thing the bigass dragon give you) you can talk to him and he gives you the quest to do the dlc's. edit: Sorry it's the Ashen Mist Heart that the dragon gives you, the giant lord drops the kinship.

On the bright side I got REALLY good at running past all the enemies from the first bonfire to that boss room.

Tbf I had no clue how to fight the leg less form either, but I would just jump into the fire and hit him, back off and heal and do it again without any strategic thought and that worked

I had a much worse time with Laurence over Orphan in ng+2. I can see it being a really fun fight, even with the delayed fire hit boxes, but he hit me so hard. Like I had 1200 hp and he hit me for 700-900 an attack. You could totally dance in and out of his three hit swipe too. He hits wide, close, wide, every time. But when your margin of error is 1 hit its too brutal. I don't know if I'll skip him in ng+3. Maybe not just to see if fighting him three dozen times seared it into my memory.
