cliiint: Dark Souls 2: 12 minutes of gameplay footage

cliiint 04.10.13	hopefully dragons dogma will last me until gtaV and that will hold me over until my life no longer revolves around video games
Vakarian12 04.10.13	omgomgomgomgomgmogomgomgomgomgomgomg
InFiction 04.10.13	Still trying to make the first one my bitch. I have not been successful.
Gwyn. 04.10.13	not looking forward to it tbh all this dumb down talk is off putting
Gwyn. 04.10.13	also http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GvKXOUHxJZc
Gwyn. 04.10.13	For once, Im going to echo what you say Give me The Witcher 3 [2]
apert 04.10.13	this game should be so hard only 1% of those who start the game should finish it
theacademy 04.10.13	you mean demon's souls 3 dumb fuck
Vakarian12 04.10.13	hopefully a pause option is added this time because, you know, people do have get up to go to the toilet (non trve gamers) and answer the phone and what not..
tkxxx7 04.10.13	SOEXCITEDOMFG leave the pause option out, please.
Vakarian12 04.10.13	"leave the pause option out, please." why do you want that? it doesn't add to the difficulty of the game. Well, it does in a way. Can't concentrate much when you need to piss and your up against a boss.
KotoFtw 04.10.13	I'm still stuck on Sen's fortress, I don't even know why. It's not like it's that difficult.
Vakarian12 04.10.13	Sen's fortress is one of the easiest areas in the game (for me anyway). Which part are you stuck on?
apert 04.10.13	You don't need a pause button, you can just quit and it aces your exact position
DrGonzo1937 04.10.13	A little worried for this without Hidetaka Miyazaki behind the wheel, but I'll reserve judgement till it's released.
DrGonzo1937 04.10.13	Sen's fortress is one of the easiest areas in the game (for me anyway) I thought it was a fucking bastard the first time I went through it. lol Definitely one of the more annoying parts in the game for me.
apert 04.10.13	Yeah I died so many times on my first run through sens, now though its pretty sime but I suspose all if it when you've completed the game 6+ times
Vakarian12 04.10.13	first time through was a bitch yeah, second and third times though were no problem at all, can be through it within 15-20 minutes. Most annoying area is probably Blightown because of the ridiculous lag. and New Londo Ruins are hell.
Vakarian12 04.10.13	though New Londo is my favourite area because the atmosphere is immense
apert 04.10.13	crystal cave was one of the most annoying for me, as i played it offline so none of the messages where there showing me the path
Vakarian12 04.10.13	oh yeah Crystal Cave was a pain, I basically rushed through there haha. always offline. Had to look at the wiki a few times though
StrangerofSorts 04.10.13	Sens is usually pretty hard because it's the first area of the game where the average enemy is bigger and does more damage than you. Then you've got to remember all the traps, the rolling balls and the crash course in the safe way to approach a chest.
StrangerofSorts 04.10.13	and wot r u chattin? Favourite area has to be the Painted World.
DrGonzo1937 04.10.13	Blightown and Sen's are definintely the areas that will make or break you haha. Fucking awful places first time you play them.
KotoFtw 04.10.13	I was stuck in the lower part, but I just got to the Iron Golem, died on my first attempt at taking him on.
apert 04.10.13	Iron Golem is pretty simple you shouldn't die too much as long as you don't fall, you always summon Iron Tarkus who can pretty much solo the fight
kris. 04.10.13	i bet it's gonna play exactly like the first two games with very very minimal amounts of change!
cliiint 04.10.13	I agree, this video will hopefully show the combat hasn't been messed other than that I welcome a more streamlined souls game. DkS can be downright cynical at times. I almost gave up my first two hours with it since I thought fighting skeletons in the graveyard at such a low level was par for how the rest of the game would be. Just leave the difficulty and combat alone but introduce a more apparent sense of direction
kris. 04.10.13	I'd like a more coherent story tbh. played dark souls for like 3 hours and didn't know shit about what was happening. at least demons soul had a plot, as paperthin and generic as it was
apert 04.10.13	lol so many people stumble into the graveyard at the beginning of the game and get fucked personally i hope they don't streamline the game at all
zakalwe 04.10.13	Dark Souls in terms of a what a game should be is perfection. Here comes the obligatory sequel to fuck it up.
apert 04.10.13	yeah the story is really in depth you just have to discover it for yourself through stuff like item descriptions and all the dialogue
kris. 04.10.13	i guess i need to play again to amazon to purchase!!!!
StrangerofSorts 04.10.13	Kris. if you want a spoiler-tastic intro to DaS lore check the first comment: http://www.reddit.com/r/darksouls/comments/1a7mek/dark_souls_history_part_5/
cliiint 04.10.13	Dark Souls story is so great because of how it explains the game mechanics. What undead and humanity is, dark phantoms and other online features and how they relate to the covenants. Especially Anor londo and what's really going on with gwyn and his family. Too bad I wouldn't know about ANY OF IT if it wasn't for epic name bro
kris. 04.10.13	DUDE $8 used on amazon mother of pearls
cliiint 04.10.13	And yeah I would also agree that dark souls is gaming perfection, but thats after five or six runs through the game. All im saying is that the developers making the first few hours more streamlined is not a bad thing imo
cliiint 04.11.13	iono how i feel right now
Vakarian12 04.11.13	just watched the footage and it looks fine, only difference is graphics have been upgraded and instead of estus flasks you get healing stones, not sure how they work or how many you get though
KotoFtw 04.11.13	Yeah graphics look a bit better. Is this releasing for the next gen consoles or current gen?
Vakarian12 04.11.13	they didn't say, the interviewer asked when we can expect it and they just said "we're still working on it so we're not sure" well, not exactly that but words to that effect. Hoping for this gen
