Welp...I finished the game!

When the direction to go to fill the Lordvessel was up to us, what I would do is explore and then clear an area. If boss was too hard, I'd go to next area and do the same thing. I eventually had to deal with 2 areas that required lots of grinding before the boss.

So I looked for summon signs for help and asked Devious how to deal with it. He just said run. So, run I did. I felled 2 bosses in 1 day. Tried to take out Gwyn yesterday and was too tired. So, I battled him this morning and vanquished him.

Here's my character getting the last bit of armor upgrades before the fight. Elite Knight Armor and a Halberd.


Here's my stats at the final level upgrade I told myself I would do. It was perfect because I had just enough souls after using some souls I found! It was destiny!


Here I am traversing into the final area. Not scared.


I didn't realize I had to deal with lots of strong knights on the way to Gwyn. So, I battled through them and got to the final boss.

I had to do that about ten times. I realized you could get some estus help if you stayed behind one of those stalagmites.

And here's right after I defeated Gwyn:


I had low health, but I knew he had 1 hit left. So, I decided to swing away.


Then I lit the bonfire...



And became one of legend.





Thanks to all that helped me along the way. You saved me so much humanity heartache with kindling and titanite with weaponsmithing.

I already got to the first bell on the continued playthrough with my character. I'm going to do things I didn't do before. I'm gonna wreck some fools on PvP!

Started the game on 2.18.2016.

frick yes. That's actually a very close build to my first play through. Only differences were that I was using the Grass Crest Shield, and Black Knight Halberd instead of normal Halberd. I got really lucky in the Grassroot.

They've zapped all the fun out of the sense of comradary that comes with these releases. People are already on NG+ and found all the endings. It's a shame.

It doesn't affect me since I'm not a launch player anyway but they fricked that up.

In short: a staggered western release is wholly unnecessary and a slap in the face of the series' biggest fanbase.

I'm sorry but that doesn't explain anything to me. If you are taking it as a personal offence then I don't know what to say.

Watch that vid or Google it. No point in me giving a detailed explanation.

Just watched it. The only thing I understand now is that if it's finished, go ahead and put it out already.

Otherwise, who gives a frick if videos and streams are out. All you have to do is don't watch. You still can play through without knowing what's around the corner if you just have some self control. If you can't help yourself to watch, that's on you.

its bullshite for people like jombie who wanted to a do a commentary stream. impossible to get a substantive number of views when so many people have already posted their own.

Hell, I'd watch too. If he's that good and can do a decent commentary then I'm sure he'll gather his own following.

Considering his knowledge of the series I would watch his videos on all the ones I've played.

I plan on doing a playthrough with commentary, if you guys are interested. I'd like to stream, but wouldn't be able to do it until late.

I won't want the spoilers but if you put stuff like that on Youtube I would check it out for sure.
