Is this game worth getting if I only have keyboard and mouse?


The thing is... why don't you just buy a controller? You'll get to use it with many different games which are just better played with a controller, and it really isn't that expensive. The official XBox controller just costs 32 euros... that's like $40? And that controller is really, really good (since you don't have to use the dpad that often).

And it'll be more or less an investment for the decade. I've had mine for 2 years now, and it literally doesn't show the slightest sign of usage, even though I've been using it for every game where I had the chance... Super Meat Boy, Arkham City, all Assassins Creed games, a lot of games on emulated Gamecube & PS2, etc.

I don't understand, I did everything right and still didn't manage to save Solaire:| Poor guy, finally found his sun.

But I just don't get it why the game triggered this sequence, I didn't enter izalith from centipede room, but spent 30 humanity and took a shortcut. And there he was, waiting with a sun maggot on his head. Tells a lot about the game that I feel sad now. Sunbros for life.


Edit: and I would also recommend Xbox controller for PC, it's really good and I have already played both Darksiders with it, both Batmans, LA Noire and so on...there's more and more multiplatform games that are just meant to be played with controller and this one is really good. Before it I had Logitech Rumblepad 2, but Xbox controller is much better, and the price is not that high

Ah I think I know what happened...I summoned him for the centipede fight, but he messes up the boss patern, as it won't follow you to the corner. I died and in the 2nd attempt I went without solaire and won. I see that people are mentioning talking with him after the centipede fight, didn't happen for me:|

Anyway, I just started the depths, found the first bonfire and was surprised to see an INVASION warning. I'm only 26 and the guy in my game had armor I'd never seen before, casted spells and shit I'd never seen before and basically 1 shot me. I hit him twice for ~300dmg and it seemed as those his life barely moved. How the fuck is this fair/fun? There is noway he was near my level with the gear he was wearing unless he knows secret areas to get gear or something. wtf..

You can beat the whole game as lvl 1, good players can get anything they want while staying low level, to pwn noobs. Not much to be done about that, except getting good yourself.

Does anyone here ever rate messages? I read there is a possibility to gain humanity if one of your messages gets rated. I rate every message I come by, but I've yet to get one of my own rated.

Yes, but as soon as I opened the shorcut, Solaire was already there. People are saying that talking with him after centipede actually counts as entering izalith, which triggers hollow solaire, but since I didn't do that, now I'm quite puzzled.

In the next game I will try going into shortcut before even going against centipede.

same thing happens to me. i rate a lot of messages that are funny/helpful, but when for example my sign is the only one showing where an illusionary wall is, it never gets any votes. none of mine have got any negative nor positive votes, but i've probably rated hundreds myself.

i'm beginning to think maybe the online lag issues are on my end or something - i have opened up every port i've ever seen mentioned to be related to dark souls and GFWL (initally i wasn't able to invade anyone/summon anyone) and since then i've had a lot of sucess, but it seems that when people try to invade me, more often than not they fail to join my game also. i'd say 2/3 times i get invaded, it's a failed invasion.

it just gets annoying - i have been practicing parrying by going to various mobs who use different types of weapons and just sit there and see how many chain parries i can get, and i'm not 100% dead on every time but i can sucessfully parry a lot against NPCs. but in PvP - i cannot land 1 single parry, haven't yet and i've done a lot of PvP lol.

just stuff that annoys me - just had a fight with a guy, he was trying to backstab me, i rolled away 2x, then my character teleported back before i rolled and i was getting backstabbed. it makes me rage so hard...

is there an end-all-be-all post about everything to open? i've read on the steam forums etc and opened everything they've said. i feel like when it comes to GFWL - i always seem to have a problem with my connection.

As I remember from Xbox, it's a regular issue that is in fact just lag. The parry timing is sooner in PvP than PvE, and you do get lagstabbed occasionnaly. Don't think there's anything to be done about it, but I'd gladly be proven wrong (again :D).

DS is probably one of the best RPG's if not the best RPG I've ever played. The world manages to intrigue, terrify and awe me. I haven't really felt this same way about a RPG since Morrowind's crazy world. The combat is done exceptionally well and really rewards knowledge more than just quick fingers. Then there is also the multiplayer aspect which is there to both aid and scare you some more.

I'm only level 25, but I've been summoned twice and I have summoned someone twice. It can take a while though for someone to summon you though.

How is that? You cannot play co-op whenever you want?

Damn, is Nito fight hard:| got mowed down few times already. I've read that the divine weapon is the way to go, but I've already upgraded my weapon of choice, so don't want to spend on getting a divine weapon if not absolutely neccessary.

And the baby skeletons are not giving as much humanity as I though they would, I feel it was going faster with the rats:|

And about the signs, I read that as you get more and more votes for your signs, you kinda get a rank in them, and your signs then have a higher chance for appearing in other people's worlds. I think most people fill up their quick slots, and can't be bothered to switch back to soapstone just to rate the message. I usually rate the ones I feel were useful advices.

You're not mistaking the knight Kirk for a human invader are you?? xD This phantom NPC will invade if you're in human form in Depths.

Black Phantoms that invade are usually below your level but can in fact be +/- 10% your soul level. However, some invaders are well prepped for low level PvP with far superior gear than your own.

The best is when you get backstabbed but during the animation, the characters aren't even remotely in the appropriate places. Happened to me last night, took a roll and suddenly got backstabbed, but my character model was BEHIND the guy backstabbing me. It's just the way the netcode is, likely NOT on your end. You just become accustomed to it, and either learn how to play around it, or when to take advantage of it.

Edit: Oh, this is on Xbox as well I should mention. So yeah, not much has changed when it made it over to PC

I recently learned that you don't need your orange guidance stone for ratings. just hit select while reading a message! Also, you are right about highly rated messages being more likely to appear in other worlds. Use the "Seek Guidance" miracle to see how many messages you *aren't* seeing!
