I tried my first invasion since I usually play offline because of the stutters, and the lag was awful. There were 2 players to fight which didn't help, but there was a monster in the field with us so I was trying to get the monster to constantly attack them. He got them down pretty close, but I never could get close enough for the final kill since the lag was so bad and the magic user got me. Every time I try to play online I get horrible stuttering which is a shame.

I used an fps unlocker that also can increase fov. Played offline. No more "finger but hole" stupid messages. Game is 100% more enjoyable now.

I think you're only a little further than I am. How many hours/ what level are you at the moment?
I'm having the same issue and every time I have runes to level up it's becoming a minor dilemma. Vitality and Endurance are set for awhile and I was thinking about going quality so I could try most of the weapons but at this point I should be going hard on a specialization if I'm going to do it.
Still using a Broadsword because it's a work horse and everything is either too exotic or I don't like the moveset.
Anyone have any general guidance for the respec option? How late in the game can you do it/how expensive is it? Any reason a complete reset wouldn't work or is it more designed to help you min-max the build you're already using?

50 hours using a guide?
DS1 100% complete is 100+ hours for a blind first ever run.

I actually feel like fighting mounted on Torrent to be extremely janky.
Alexios
Cores, shaders and BIOS oh my!
I found it janky at first but got the hang of it and enjoy it now. It's certainly more loose and less precise than on foot but it's still good and meaty and it's fun to slay fools, whether troops or beasts. Just gotta know to not always lock on cos the camera can go WILD as you or the enemy run past.
Is it worthwhile to explore the rest of the castle after beating Godric or there's not gonna much useful stuff there? Man those eagles are probably my worst normal enemy yet, lol. I was using side routes and shortcuts, or so I thought, but reached that fool pretty swiftly after all.
Some of the big knights were tough too so I should probably go back to get past them in some areas and see whatever lies beyond. Or maybe farm them a bit if they have good loot? I dunno.
I think I recall seeing an enemy that looked like the first impossible boss murdering you in the castle and I noped out of there, lol.
Like 30, I spent a LOT of time in the starting area and did a LOT of side stuff that opened up various advanced areas with enemies giving loads of souls before moving on, lol. I've been using the broadsword when I need more ability and otherwise/on horse the lordwhatever greatsword.

Played a bunch these past couple days. Saw many a wondrous thing, and vanquished fetid abominations and untold horrors.
Eventually I found a weird portal near a church that dumped me unceremoniously into a horrible place I'm pretty sure I wasn't supposed to be at. Strongly clenching my anus (I had some runes on me that would have hurt if lost), I found my way to a grace site and back to familiar territory, runes and anus intact.

Level 30 or 30 hours?! Assuming Level 30. Am just about to tie up most of the first map section myself at level 27 and then it's time for the castle. Just need to take down the Stormhill Evergaol. So I'm not the one to ask.
Judging from what others have said tho there's a TON of goodies in that old castle.
Like Alexios said and I agree the jankiest part of Torrent is the camera. I don't usually lock on but the lock on and the camera has always been terrible in Souls. I swear a lot of new players might have had a better time of it without the inclusion of lock on ...
Anyway Torrent is by no means some masterwork of coding but it works and I think it's fun and coming from From I imagined so much worse.

I cleared Bloodborne x Harry Potter last night. After beating this boss
. Loved the look and atmosphere of this place but I'd still give Stormveil the edge for overall design, that place is Anor Londo, Drangleic and Lothric all rolled into one.
I still have at least 50% of the lakes region to explore before I will finally move into the Eastern lands, I'm clearing each region methodically before going to the next. I mentioned in a previous post I spent 30 hours scouring West/East Limgrave + The Weeping Peninsula. Well I decided to go back anyway and explore some more, sure enough there was a bunch of stuff I missed. If you're convinced you've fully cleared an area I'm telling you you haven't, the sheer amount of content packed into this game is insane. Good thing I didn't play as a mage, somehow missed the sorcery NPC even though I'd been to that location, finally found her in my 45th hour (51 hours clocked now).

Anyone want to help with Radahn on PC? Dude is wrecking me.
I was watching my nephew in a coop game last night (I was the coop partner I was watching ingame from a roof) using the apparently easymode caster when I noticed how much he struggled against great shields. I havn't played much with light weapons but can't small blades (daggers/katanas/straight swords) heavy attacks guard break shields? what are people playing casters doing against heavy shields, not that it matters I think he rage respecced after some shield guy in lyndel city out cast him with lightning while blocking all his pewpew.

stumbled upon a considerable number of false walls... pay attention to the floors also, they too have them. Got a nice sword that shoot projectile/inflict status without using fp through one of them.

Played 51 hours so far and haven't read anything on here on purpose in case anything contains spoilers no matter how small.
A friend told me I must be bad at the game as a streamer he watches finished it in 3 days.
I said I bet I've seen more of the game than him as I'm trying to do as much as possible even if it takes months over going over inch by inch.

I beat Godrick on first try! Damn I’m lucky. Margit and him first try. A bit over leveled, but I’m no souls pro either. Had 0 potions left on that one, a fuckup more and I was done.
What an epic fight. I did bear witness. Oh yes. I really hope FS implements a boss arena later ala Sekiro.

Decided to clear a world boss that I skipped before… which opened up something… which took me to a previously inaccessible part of an area…which took me to a huge secret area…which took me to a different secret area. And another. And i now have a new legendary weapon.
What a game. All of that could’ve been easily overlooked, but the devs trust in preserving the sense of exploration and awe.

Right, so posted a page or 2 back about being stuck in Sellia at level 15, and it was suggested I should be able to fast travel out after finding a grace site. Which I thought I had tried, but had turned the game off for the night so wasn't sure if I had maybe derped and tried while I was being chased or something.
I've just gone back in now, resting at the grace site outside of the 1st cave, bring up the map and all the grace sites have a red strike through them. If I click on any I get 'Cannot travel to a grace site from this location'
Am I missing something? I really need to get out of this hellhole and back to Limgrave. I literally only fast traveled once or twice so far, and those times I just did it from anywhere in the world iirc.

The game is addictive as hell. Idr when was the last time I was THIS invested in the game. Witcher 3 probably. Just can't stop playing once I start. It's always let me go there and check it out, finding new stuff, new enemies then looking for new site of grace.
Beat Godrik and the new area is really beautiful but has a spooky vibe to it. Seems mage heavy too. Really want to explore the academy, but idk if I should anytime soon.
I have gotten tons of weapons but sticking to my ugigatana. Can't find good looking armor pieces with better stats though. Still wearing the same stuff I got super early and it's still way better than most stuff I'm finding.
Edit: Godrick's remembrance power (fist) is nowhere near as cool as it was for him during the boss battle. Maybe it's underperforming because I'm under levelled.

I am a level 60 facing Radahn. First thing that I notice is while getting to that boss, there are 0 enemies. Nothing. I joined a co-op and I fought the knight. I have no idea how to trigger that, but then I tried co-op Radahn. I’ve managed to get him down to a quarter life and then the Host dies. There are a lot of people trying to do this fight. I’m somewhat worried cause I only have a +7 Grafted Blade greatsword and my attack level is over 400. I’m thinking I need to get this thing to a 10-15 before taking Radahn on myself. I can take 300-400 damage away from him, but he has a big health pool.

I used the same sword but i was like lvl 84. I jousted him and let the summoned spirits tank him. He’s just way too fast otherwise.

If your friend beat it in 3 days he literally missed 70% of the game, that isn't even an exaggeration. Good call not reading through the thread, way too many unmarked spoilers. We have about the same amount of time clocked and I'm methodically searching every inch of the map too, praise the Ring.

Haven't been this addicted to a game in a while. Did some nice progress in game yesterday too and did another 3-4 bosses. Have done all bosses that awards bronze trophies now
Hope i can get the platinum without doing runs in NG+ or NG+2.
Beat the boss that is the statue in the collector's edition. Both a cool fight and grueling and at times annoying too. Crazy to think it's a optional boss i had to look up quite complex steps to even find.

Yeah, I think part of the charm of From games was that they were not afraid to create a lot of content that can be skipped and missed. This is the exact opposite of Western game development philosophy that makes sure you show everything to the player.
That was one of the major changes in WoW and the reason they introduced LFR mechanic - they didn’t want players to miss on content.

I killed Godrick, and then went back and cleared all the previous bosses that were previously too hard in Limrick. Finally getting some really good equipment.
Moments like that put it above Bloodborne/Souls games. Has that Elder Scrolls Morrowind feel that was sadly lost in later entries.

But I have full FP after dying, this is in the exact same place its happens as well
Can anyone recommend this game if you're exhausted from the teenage open world games that comes out with your standard story that belongs in the shitter, uninteresting discoveries, bleak characters and crying NPCs that can do fuck all by themselves and wants you running errands for them for some shit exp?

Anyone else overwhelmed by the choice of weapons and just stuck to their guns?
I'm on a +14 longsword because I just can't find something that feels better. I kinda want a decent katana but from what I've heard the good ones are still out of reach for me in the final zone.

found other people with the same isue since yesterday, and seems connected to the small update released yesterday.
already did revert to previous drivers and nothing changed, reinstalling the new ones didn't do anything either
also, i'm on a laptop, so no easy access to gpu

are there specific tiers of weapons?
or you mean unique weapons like the bloodhound fang and other similiar "unique" weapons?
Speaking of finding new areas, i like the risk/reward mechanic of the warping traps

That’s so funny you missed the sorcery NPC. I nearly missed them as well but thankfully bought a few spells from them. They’re not the greatest for what they cost but need to experiment.I cleared Bloodborne x Harry Potter last night. After beating this boss.

That is the greatest thing about this game that each player will have a completely unique experience the first time round, and probably multiple times through. From have created an incredible world here.

When I'm not playing this game, I'm thinking about it. Took an elevator late last night and ended up in a massive area I didn't have time to explore. Can't wait to get stuck in.
