So I just got to Huntsman's Copse. I think No-Man's Wharf is probably my favorite area so far, it was pretty unique.
Also, is it just me or are most location a lot smaller than they were in the first?

So, I just got to the Iron Keep and Shaded Woods. Tried dropping to the pit for vain. Out of blue there is now a guy who offers to set up ladder though I'm lacking in funds  Atm, Iron Keep feels a bit overwhelming with those knights. Shaded Woods is also kinda shady  Replica of double-faced sentinel from No Man's Wharf killed me in one strike so I'm not sure if that's way to go either. Perhaps I should take an another look into Harvest Valley. |

Why is it that PVP is laggy bullshit ONLY in the BoB arena?
I really love getting hit from 20 feet away by a short sword.
Or backstabbed by the guy that I am currently fucking backstabbing.

btw i heard the game still uses p2p for the actual multiplayer gameplay and just uses servers for matchmaking. is this true? would explain the lag some people are getting too.

Yes, and as I understand it's the exact same as what they did in Demon's Souls. The servers are for login and matchmaking only.

Yes, that's true. But I'm not sure if the unfair PvP stuff I've been experiencing is simply due to the character and weapon hitboxes being insanely large. I've been hit by a sword 6 feet away from where the sword actually is. Unfortunately, despite the easier matchmaking PvP suffers from the same issues as Dark Souls. |

Dual Greatswords is amazing for a STR PvP build, assuming you are gud with rolls.
Your left GS will always sweep, and your right GS will always overhand, so you control all melee zoning with ease.

it might be an fps thing, since that arena has a lot more geometry on screen at once than most of the other pvp zones

Got my first Old One soul. Also found the Bellfry Luna. I'm glad it was really short area since those invaders got on my nerves. Guys literally hit and backstabbed me from meters away  Got through by summoning other player to help me to ward the invaders off. The place might be fun enough to battle someone if it weren't full of those gnomes messing around. Perhaps if I joined the covenant. Though I'd probably need to disconnect the internet so that I can exhaust the dialogue with the gnome though :D |

instead of getting pissed off at the smelter demon, i've instead decided to descend into the pit. It kinda bothers me that The Rotten (an area boss) is 5x easier than the smelter demon (a mini boss)

Somewhat of a tangent: Suda51 now owns FromSoft?!Everyone will be rolling in tears right now, besides Sir Silbereisen... who will undoubtedly be doing so for different reasons. Tangent to tangent: I love how Forbes says it's 'the worst game ever made' and also 'not the worst game ever made.' Although I'm sure that's just to butter up their E.T. discovery article. |

That worst game article really seemed like a bait. Well, perhaps I'll read it when I have time. Btw, those lion ganja men in Shaded Woods kick my ass. Sorcery isn't that good against them |

Aren't people getting banned from online play for using those? Or am I just trusting /vg/ a little too much?
