Tried to play this twice. First was 2015 only a couple years after it came out and I had no idea what I was getting into. Never made it past undead burg. The 2nd was a few years ago with a bit better understanding of what I was getting into but never made it past the Capra Demon. I want to get the same incredible feeling of accomplishment everyone else gets when they play these games but I suck :(

We're happy to help you through it. Dark Souls, particularly Dark Souls 1, is about being careful and staying calm. Panic and gravity are responsible for probably 90% of all DkS1 deaths. I am not, at all, any kind of elite gamer. Don't get me wrong, I'm not bad, and I've been gaming a long time, but I'm (relatively speaking) old and don't game competitively. I just frick around with single player games to have fun.
And I can knock out the entire game, from Asylum to credits, killing every main game and DLC boss, including optional ones, in a touch over 7 hours, comfortably. It's just a matter of knowledge of the game and its mechanics and staying focused. I promise we can get you through it if you really want to

Just buy the buckler shield and learn to parry. It'll take just a bit but DS1 is ridiculously easy to parry in and the buckler has a slightly bigger timing window for forgiveness. Once you get the rhythm of it, you'll be criticaling enemies in no time and slaughtering them left and right.
