[QUOTE=n0cturni;38137837]It'd be cool if in the next souls game there was an orb that let you invade as a "ghost", only able to walk around and do gestures, maybe even things like opening/closing doors.
It's pretty fun to watch people fuck up as they're playing the game, plus it could give you some insight on how to clear an area out more easily.[/QUOTE]
Eh, I'm not sure if I'd like that. People could just enter an area, ghost through the entire area and know where everything is.
It'd remove the sense of surprise and remove the discovery aspect of the game.
I'd like to see the ability to crouch in the next souls game.
Like, keep everything from Dark Souls, add the magic bar back from Demon's Souls, and then add the ability to crouch.
Another thing I'd like to see brought back from Demon's Souls is the ring that attracts enemies to you.

Why do you need to crouch?

I always found the mana thing to be annoying. :v:
Having to carry even more consumables that weighed you down. The only thing I'd like about it being put into a new game is that it'd keep people from spamming spells.
About to take on the Gaping Dragon with a +6 Giant Club of Fuck Your Shit Up
wonder how much faster he'll go down :v:
[QUOTE=Carnage2323;38154865]Why do you need to crouch?[/QUOTE]
It would add to the stealth elements in the game. Crouch walking behind enemies and stuff. It could also open up the opportunity for hidden areas that you have to crouch to get to.
I can imagine that it would be useful when being invaded. Hide behind some cover and when the invader runs back, jump up and surprise attack him.

Uploaded attempt 3 of my playthrough
Made it all the way to the blacksmith without dying.

Except it stands out like a sore thumb for someone who knows their areas.
The ring of fog is pretty useful in some places, like the catacombs or tomb of the giants.
oh man
my friend and I got invaded by some guy using two tower shields and it was so great (we were Ornstein and Smough (which is hella fun :D))

he kept killing himself though, we got invaded by him a lot.
couldn't get any good pictures sadly
Doing a Strength/Faith playthrough, I did not miss you 4 kings. ):
It doesn't seem like anyone is interested in my no death/no shield playthrough...
Lost 20k souls to those fucking PVP-esque NPCs behind the crest-locked door in Darkroot Garden. :(

I've been silently watching it when I have the time.

Next time you're there (you will be unless you've killed the Wolf) make sure you whack the stone wall next to the door for a nice little present called illusory wall.
Also, just take 'em one at a time and you'll be fine
[QUOTE=Big Ben;38158262]Lost 20k souls to those fucking PVP-esque NPCs behind the crest-locked door in Darkroot Garden. :([/QUOTE]
Just backstab?
Or just agro them all and hide to the right of the stairs on the forest floor with your shield up. The enemies will run off the stairs and kill themselves.
So I started playing this recently and I must say, even with extensive assistance from a better player Smough and Ornstein were the most difficult things I've ever fought in a video game.
Can't wait for the next boss. :v:
4 bosses
take a pick

I would love to use this build, invade the early levels, use a trainer to make myself non-hostile and just watch randoms at a distance. Freak the fuck out any newbies with a Grim Reaper just off in the distance.

Hah, that's just like the [url=http://mugenmonkey.com/darksouls/?c=4857323495036666]build[/url] I just made... except mine actually involves killing them. :v: Has the skull lantern too.
I have to say, when somebody (and zip) turned up in my game with no head holding a skull lantern I did a proper double take.
I'd love for there to be something that lets you illusion into somebodies world.

If you ever summon another player make sure that they use [U]only[/U] shields and nothing else.
That way the universe will remain in balance :v:
I think once i do Anor Londo and get the lordvessal, I'll get around to doing the DLC.
Gravelord Sword is, slow but pretty good. It will get some taking use to.

That would be a cool co-op playthrough.
One person is the shield, the other the sword.
Didn't turn out as well as I'd have liked, cape and mail skirt are shitty, but it's still nice.

Also recommendations for a nice looking helm.

What helm is that equipped?
[QUOTE=Jah Mason;38161388]What helm is that equipped?[/QUOTE]
Mask of the Child I think.

I use the silver set with the elite knight helmet. The normal silver helmet looks too goofy for my tastes.
