Wait, on Steam it says the game unlocks on the 24th. Are we getting the game a day early?

Internet Kraken posted:I beat Dark Souls on SL 1. It has nothing to do with skill, its just a lovely system and I mad because they hosed up a really good system rather than fixing the minor problems with it. It's a good system and that fact that you're throwing a little tantrum about it makes it even better.

Hanging out in Belfry Sol I've encountered two hackers already. One was using a speed hack, which was goofy because he was just flying around, zooming all over the place. The other I'm not totally sure was hacking. He was just standing perfectly still. I walked up to him, tried waving, and then I threw a "I'm sorry" stone in his face to get his attention. Finally I stabbed him in the back. No damage. Then he goes flying off in one direction and a ton of spells hit me, but then his backstab animation plays. I managed to beat him with just 1hp left. I'm not sure if he was hacking or if it was just crazy lag or something.

Has anyone noticed that a certain NPC Invader Jester Thomas will actually taunt you before starting his attack? He does the "This one's me". I've never seen an NPC do any gesture before.

All this talk of magic hatin' has me second guessing choosing my magic only caster as my DLC character. Does anyone know what time the DLC for those of us who haven't purchased the season pass goes up? I was able to buy the Sunken King DLC a day before but I don't see Iron King on the steam page.

Concurred posted:Old Iron King isn't on the Steam store for purchase, was this normal for Sunken King? Since I bought that a week after the fact I bought Sunken King a day before it came out. I did have to kinda "trick" the store into letting me buy it. I clicked on DLC, then on Season Pass, then on the top I clicked on "Dark Souls 2 Downloadable Content" and it showed up in there. Searching just yielded the Season Pass. This trick doesn't seem to work for the Iron King.

I'm doing a run through with a poison build right now and its a lot funner late game than it is at the beginning and middle. At the start you aren't really poisoning enough and in the middle there are a lot of poison resistant things (at least the route I took) but by end game a lot of guys get poisoned after just a few hits and you can just sit back and watch. Now that I think about it I may want to take my poison guy through this DLC because he made Iron Keep about ten times easier.

I've been trying to poison everything. Have you tried the run and hide and poison and cry tactic? It seems to be working ok for me. Also, you can skip a bunch of the first part if you have enough health and something to help you fall (like the cats ring). There is a platform below where the chain ends.

Cyberventurer posted:This second DLC seemed pretty slow and easy-going enough for me until I came across the goddamn gang of red invaders right before the memory of the old iron king, and now the next area has me getting chopped to pieces whenever I have two enemies on me at once. Holy poo poo I haven't gotten that angry in a long drat time. Why do I suck so much trying to land parries even with a target shield? I've been trying to use it ever since I started this new character and I STILL never quite know the correct time to try it, and I get punished way too hard. I had Toxic Mist so I just popped it, rode the elevator down. When I came back up they were all waiting and I popped it again and rode the elevator back down. Came back up and had one more left. I got a Berserker Sword out of it.

You also get that custom animation if you run and jump on the fire geckos in Forest of Giants. I never knew that until I was watching Kay Plays and she just randomly tried it.
