Game is Dark Souls (series)
I actually love it. The deaths are often not cheap so it’s fine. Plus the ability to grab your lost points makes it easier than people think it is. Farming can be fun too, I love confidently farming an entire area and trying different things out.
Oh man, I started with 1, got to that deman with the dogs in the small courtyard. Absolutely loved the game.
So I got 2, but for some reason the entire game is running at like 3X speed, so it’s unplayable.
So I got 3. Didn’t like how “smooth” and quicker you move in it.
Jumped back to 1, defeated that demon and now am going thru the dark sewer catacombs (?) it has all the slimes that drop on you.
Also retried 3 with a different build and got seriously hooked. I have to defeat the giant skeleton with a crown, and the painting area.
wow, you’re making great progress! I’m impressed you’re keeping up a mental map of the game spaces playing both simultaneously, I feel like that alone was a bit demanding - especially DS1.
Funnily I think Tunic is what got me into gear for enjoying Dark Souls. That game is so much better than it looks it is. And its a love letter to DS and Zelda, and to old games with instruction manuals.
The start of Tunic being basically the exact same as Dark Souls made me laugh once I reaised what it was doing. “Here, take your rubbish weapon and your dodge roll and go ring two important bells in opposite directions from here. It’s important for saving the world.”
Tunic late-ish game spoilers
Holy shit the reveal of the endless rows of trapped ghost fox things was jaw-dropping. I think it worked even better specifically because of the adorable art style
Yeah the story for tunic and what’s going on underneath all the happy Zelda like over world was pretty jaw dropping. I loved that game.
