    The games lure you into the “right direction“ with their difficulty. And then there is I, an intellectual, who dies to skeletons for 4 hours straight at the start of DS1.

    Playing these games for the first time was incredible ❤️

        Yeah you gotta hit that New Londo first. It’s right there.

      In hindsight, the respawning should have been a hint. But it took me a while to get it.

      Imagine not immediately rushing towards the skellies to get that sweet zweihander that trivializes 1/3 of the game.

      I used every trick I could think of bashing my head against those skeletons, then I got to the giant one and wanted to throw my controller, then I finally got underground and cried.
