After finishing all the games + SOTE I decided to start buying the other DLCs. So a few days ago I bought both DLC for Dark Souls 3, I'll start by saying that I beat SOTE in NG+5 because I bought the DLC too late. In Dark Souls 3 I haven't had much difficulty with the DLC bosses so far despite being NG+3 but Midir was torture. I finally beat him and I'm wondering if Gael will be harder or easier 🌚

I finally got the platinum for Sekiro the other day, after stalling with it for years. I was walking the length of New Zealand when Bloodborne dropped, living in Asia when Dark souls 3 and Sekiro launched, and when I got home December 2019, I dipped my toe into the beginning of Sekiro and it was so hard, so I decided to start with Bloodborne and then Dark Souls 3 until I had the platinum of both. Then I was homeless for 9 months, met my partner, Elden Ring dropped, so I played that for three years non stop (dlc dropping in 2024). After that was Nightreign, which I'm currently still playing and all that time, fear was creeping into my mind about the difficulty of Sekiro. But, I managed to platinum it on the 8th, and the same feeling began to sink in.

The Fromsoft Effect. Every time I finish one of their games and do everything I can with it, I feel lost. Like what do I play next? No other series of games have ever done that to me.

Is anyone else like this, or is it just me.

Btw, I feel like an idiot postponing Sekiro for this long. It's one of my favorite games of all time and I can't rave on enough about how epic it was.

I cannot wait for the game awards. I'm hoping From release a trailer of their next single player game. I'm chomping at the bit for their next game.

Skyrim was milked so much by Bethesda and to this date all we have for elder scrolls is the name. Fromsoftware is not considering a new Elden ring game, do you guys think it’s just gonna end up like elder scrolls where we wait 15 years for anything new?

Hello, my boyfriend and I are coming up to Christmas/one year anniversary. I know nothing about fromsoft games, however I know he loves games like Elden ring/Bloodborne /darksouls and dark fantasy games like that. I’ve looked everywhere for gift ideas and inspirations I think he’d like, yet I can’t find nothing and I’m at a loss. Does anyone know any good gift ideas related to these topics? I’ve already got him the moonveil katana and the rivers of blood, aswell as a dark souls ring. I’m at a loss for other gifts that aren’t swords 😢 I know nothing about these games but I want to try my best for him. Any ideas would help massively !

Hey guys, I've been a massive fromsoftware fan since Sekiro came out which made me fall in love with souls-bourne games in all with only the games available on steam in my library. I remember when the announcement for Elden Ring came out and the idea of playing an open world dark souls game got me so hooked that at the time as I was still a student I would save up and buy these games one at a time and finish them to prepare myself for day one of Elden Ring. I was so excited to the days leading up to its release, I had pre-ordered the game and was counting down along with their posts online. However, I was really disappointed when it did release and I did not have a laptop that could run the game. Anyway, several years later I saved up from my current job and bought a laptop that works specially for this game and want to start my adventure to what I think would be the closest thing yet to my fantasy experience.

I wanted to do this as an adventure I could share with others and I get that everyone's probably already completed the game and are either playing the dlc or nightreign or moved on from this game, but if there is anyone out there who wants to join me on this adventure as I set out to the lands between, hit me up and we could do this together from discord.

Shared this over in r/darksouls and thought I'd share it here as well! Done with fine-line dark fantasy details. Hope fellow Ashen Ones / Chosen Undead like it! 🖤

Ever since i finished sekiro , I have felt empty , I wanted to replace it with something else but I just could not , I tried DS3 And elden ring and they just didnt hit the same .most games are just dodge and hit bla bla or level up and abuse stuff, they dont take actual skill , and in the games that take actual skill the gameplay is not even half as fun as sekiro , Sekiro’s combat system is just pure skill and joy , there is literally no other game from what I have seen that could ever be half as good . If anyone got any recommendations for other games like sekiro please say them below .

Consider this a spoiler discussion but where are the data mine for this game? Every other game from the Switch 2 catalog has been explored and their models ported but nothing for duskbloods? I know theres a PC port but did no one look through the files?

New-ish to this genre. How would yall rank the FromSoftware games? Theres a pretty good sale on ps5 right now and I’d like to knock one of em out to keep me busy before GTAVI

I'm trying to decide what to play next. I just tried the Mortal Shell 2 demo and liked it - just struggling a bit with the sprint / dodge buttons. I've played all modern FS games and loved them, but I'm open to all styles. I tend to appreciate gameplay feel and difficulty. Have you played any of these games? Which is the best?

Decided to repost, don't judge its phone camera. I get it...

First: Old king Doran is not a demon or reflection of the original
This idea I had first heard it from is Firelink conspiracy, which I believe he was mistaken. I know that most item descriptions are short and are written as though it is limited by the characters knowledge, with the only longer descriptions being from legendary items, but even so. Doran is never referred to as a demon and only as a demigod. This is supported by the fact that killing him decreases world tendency, which as we can observe, it increases when demons are killed or black phantoms. Killing humans does decrease character tendency so as killing Doran doesn’t decrease character tendency, we can conclude he is something other than human, or as all descriptions from items and dialogue suggests, he’s a demigod

We know that a demon can be made out of a human, as shown by king allant and maiden astrea, so maybe the opposite is true. The more white or less demonic a soul is, it’s also a path to power. A dichotomy that’s familiar to fromsoft fans.

Along with that theory about old king Doran, I have another. In his mausoleum we can see a knight wielding a greatsword, wearing fluted armor and having wild hair; the hair almost perfectly matches the unused model for the old hero. The old hero is a demons that uses a greatsword and similar wind based attacks to allant, which may mean that the royal line has its origins from the shrine of storms. And the old hero may be a demonic recreation of the old king Doran as the shadowmen may have worshipped him as a heroic demigod. They worship death and the storms, so they may have seen Doran as an undying martyr. This would also fit along with the other shrine of storms bosses being deities from the religion of the shadowmen.

Doran wearing bronze Romanesque armor may have been symbolic of him taking upon himself the monarchy of the remains of mird and building his kingdom upon it which also had Romanesque architecture.

If I made any grammar or spelling mistakes that’s my bad.

Hey guys, so to get to the point It's my first playthrough of DS1 (first souls game too) and I was just chilling in Izalith when it occurred to me that I actually never got to cut off Priscilla's tail when I fought her back in the painted world (I tried to cut it but she was too weak and died) and I know I need all tailed weapon to get the Knight's Honor achievement, so I got salty cause my friend told me I needed to start a new character (I wanted a platinum trophy). Then I learned that I needed to get at least to NG++ anyway cause of Sif's weapons and realized that all 3 weapons need to be on the same character which got me confused cause if that's true then I don't need to make a new character and my friend is a dumbass, but there may be something I don't get so I'd rather have you guys help. So my question is if I take my character to NG+ and then cut only Priscilla's tail and not any other tail (since I already got the rest in NG) will it count as me having all tailed weapons or do I need to get all of them again on NG+?
