Do you think the game (and the other Souls games) would be better without fog gates? Would be pretty interesting to never know when you’re about to walk into a boss encounter.
@kyleforrester87 I feel like with the stakes of Marika, if you left people's souls outside the boss arena you could definitely throw in a surprise boss without boss fog to mix things up. I'm sure I got hit with a surprise boss fight in Gael tunnel after opening a door but I might have just been unobservant!
I started Journey 2 (NG+) last night and just finished off Limgrave and Stormveil. It's amazing how many intricate lore details and the like I've picked up on knowing what I already know from having beaten the game once already. Even just my understanding from just watching the opening cutscene again was really backed up by my first playthrough. I've noticed myself paying waaaay more attention to NPC dialogue now to really try keep tabs on everything.
I started journey 2 last night too, after my 2nd time beating NG. Unfortunately I was obliterating everything. I beat Margit almost without using a flask, without any tactics just attack. Went through the front gate of stormveil and rolled right up to godrick and 1-shot him too. Hopefully it gets harder later, but I may give the game a rest for a while and play HFW and get the CP2077 plat.
@velio84 yea I sorta figured. I’m using all of Radahn’s gear, armor and weapons, with medium load and it is just wrecking. They can’t balance for this I guess… but its a shame. I don’t wanna move onto other games, they just can’t live up to this.
Just finished this off tonight. The last part of the game was interesting but I can now see why others felt the way they did with regards to how it all wraps up.
All in all it’s been fun spending time in the Lands Between and I might take on an NG+ at some point and have a play around with different builds. Who knows, I might still have a chance to get slapped by Will Smith.
A slightly frustrating boss as the first phase is so easy and a pain in the posterior to have to do each time. Second phase is just not getting an unlucky hit from a spell.
