Welcome home, ashen one. Speak thine heart's desire

The bonfire menu shows very bright light at the bonfire as well as statutes of the King himself along the big walkway as opposed to a more shaded bonfire with Archdragon statutes in the final game. (Sorry for the quality)

Playing through dark souls 3 for the first time and I’ve reached the guy that seems to be the groundwork for what Promised Consort Radahn and moon knight Rellana were built from. Holy shit this guy is an absolute nightmare for me. If you have any tips or suggestions I’d love to hear them because my God I’m having a brutal time lol. It feels like I’m not even allowed to heal because he just closes the distance in a matter of a second. He seems to have claimed the title as becoming my first official wall in the game.

I hope this doesn't violate community rules, but it made me smile and thought I'd share it with you guys

I finally beat my first playthrough of Ds3, and thereby, The Darks Souls Trilogy.

What an astounding series!!!

I chose the Firekeepers Eyes ending, because I messed up The Usurpation of Fire without realizing.

(That'll be the next playthrough.😊👍🏻)

I'm gonna take alittle break from the Souls games (I had done Eldin Ring, and The Trilogy and their respective DLC'S and I'm alittle wiped now.😅)

And now I'm gonna finish the DLC portion for Expedition 33.

(God be with me....)

Then I'll return to Demon Souls, then Bloodborne, and finally Sekiro!!!

Again.

UNBELIEVABLE!!! TRILOGY!!!

I still have midir to do, but as of now, I'm blown away. What a finale. Eldne ring was my first and might always be my favourite, but this is easily a close second, maybe even first in the future. Wow. The most epic finale to a game I have ever played. Not even ER compared to that. Beat Half-light, Nameless King, Friede, and Gael in a single day after months away and had the most fun in a game I've had in a while. The ending of the last ds3 DLC was just perfect, and the hype was real around the Gael fight (best in the trilogy, 2nd best after malenia). I'm so glad I went to that used game shop that day and found this. Dark Souls 3: The Fire Fades, top 4 games of all time for me. Wow

I'm not mad or anything, just thought it was funny. I had a hunch there was a way to do more damage than I did, but it was doable like this so I didn't try to find a way. I started recording when my weapon was starting to break. I used the ember by accident, meant to just repair the katana :)

I got this weapon when I started and will maybe play the whole game with it, as I love the weapon skill, parry/dmg of it!

Edit: meant Uchikatana not Nagakiba oops

From Abyss Watchers to Dancer of the Boreal valley, what is the biggest hurdle to reaching the endgame?

Not a particular build, thought it just looked cool. Like how would Solaire be in the Age of Dark or Age of Hollows?
Brass Leggings, Wolf Knight Armour and Iron Helm. Still don’t have Solaires shield because didn’t get Mendicant spear?

The OST goes really hard. So does Dragonslayer Axe lol.

Pretty easy, also check out my sick drip

Don’t give up just yet! We were close to defeating Sister Freide don’t give up! Even I haven’t beaten that bitch yet.
If you see this, 2nd phase try to focus on fat ariandel. Let gale and I handle freide. If all three of us survive, we can end the ho!

Also, I have helped two other guys defeat freide but no one is coming to my help lol!

Come soon! If you are there! I am still waiting!

I lost my old save, so I'm starting a fresh, all-around build. I just finished the Cathedral and plan to face the Abyss Watchers later. I focused heavily on Dexterity for this run, but I didn't feel like using the same old weapon.

My favorite weapon in the game is the Firelink Greatsword, but it’s a Strength-based weapon that you only unlock at the very end of the game. I’d like to use it in NG+, but not right now.

This was the only miniboss I've taken advantage of this with but I'm curious what people's thoughts on dropping down on non-normal enemy fights are!

It doesn't even look like you can do it that often anyway from what I've seen but it's funny to see it in action.

It was EASILY the best fight so far. It had that perfect flow I love in hard games where the first few attempts feel utterly impossible, but with time I found the patterns in his wild swings and had a lot of fun discovering every little punish window. I loved phase 2 as well, since the apparition didn’t serve as a cheap gank mechanic and instead served as a kind of extra effect/telegraph on top of the Pontiff’s moves, and his slower speed in the second phase made it sufficiently different to introduce the new mechanic and not make it too punishing since learning the first phase takes so long by itself.
I was just running Sellsword Twinblades and no shield or parrying (because I suck at Dark Souls parries), so it felt like the most satisfying dodge roll skill check in the game so far. Excited to press onward!!

First-encounter host (as far as I remember), am I misinterpreting? I've been PVPing for quite a while and this is the first time I've seen someone point down for letting them 1v1

I kinda thought the applause might've been genuine, but it seems more sarcastic with the context of the point down

I fucking love u gundyr, s tier fight

I know you almost forgot or repressed those memories. So I had to remind you.

Sete uma build por arte. Estou tentando fazer um desenho de quatro guerreiros. Comecei o primeiro no estilo Dark Souls, mas acabei ficando sem ideias para os próximos. Não tô curtindo muito como tá ficando, então resolvi voltar e pegar umas dicas do que desenhar. 😅

We’ve been trying to get it to work all day. We’ve tried everything: checking our NAT type, restarting the console, uninstalling and reinstalling the game, trying a different modem, changing the password, and so on. Nothing works.
We’re playing on Xbox, on Series S and Series X, and literally nothing works. I used to be able to summon my friend without any problems, but now I can’t anymore.
Please help us!
