Everyone feel free to continue posting Cam-relevant stuff in here, but for anyone interested we have a Dark Souls general thread open: viewtopic.php?f=17&t=22618

That's actually pretty handy, I'll try to add it for next stream. Also, we have a Dark Souls general thread now! viewtopic.php?f=17&t=22618

Want to talk about Dark Souls / Demon's Souls / Dark Souls II / Bloodborne?

Slam your questions, answers, thoughts and stories here!

How is that stuff even on the internet anymore?

This is why I say Dark Souls is not for everyone.

Both the #notallmen and #yesallpeople tags seem much more concerned with declaring their own innocence than acknowledging that there is a problem. It's kind of like this: A: There's a big problem! B: It isn't our fault! Yes, we'll help you but you have to agree first that we weren't responsible for ...

Do we perhaps need a separate thread for discussion of racism?

Throwing one's hands up in the air, proclaiming that everyone sucks and the situation is hopeless is very unproductive.

It is better to light a single candle than to curse the darkness.

Because this is really, really important.

This article does a good job of getting the broad strokes for anyone who hasn't heard of this yet:

This is exactly the kind of treatment I expect from bone apologists. You'll be singing a different song when your family is pincushioned with arrows.

Let me tell you a couple of things about these gutless, heartless boneheads you're all too fond of. The following statistics were sourced from a crumpled piece of paper I found under my fridge, and a completely random ass person I met on the street verified that they are 103% scienticially accurate....

Bastard sword is slower, so it isn't *strictly* better. It seems fine, but I have a Zweihander for my big bazooka sword already and I love that stupid thing.

There is a spreadsheet going tracking the most memorable moments of Loading Ready Live on the Youtube uploads. We would love for you to flag these instances as this info will be invaluable for invevitable sizzle reels and so forth. https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/ ... edit#gid=0 Also feel fre...

Holy dick how have I not put that on the list

Windmill slam 3.

I think I mostly tilt at squandered potential, which is why Thief made me so mad.

That and not being able to see where I'm being shot at.

Let me start by apologizing for any false representations and straw man fisticuffs. I will try to be more careful in future. You can learn what poise means by changing the number with different armor and observing how gameplay changes. It is also helpful that the word literally means balance. Stat s...

Also can someone tell me what the hell covenants are and how they work? All I've been able to work out is that they're some kind of quest. Maybe.

Did not realize nothing was going on in this subforum. Talk about Crapshots here! Then when this thread becomes impossibly bloated it will rise in another thread or whatever

Thank you for streaming Dark Souls, and also posting that info on your Tumblr page. Not until your stream did I actually have any interest in playing the game. Now I'm seriously considering buying it. Glad to hear that! It's a tough nut to crack, but so tasty. Also I'm just glancing over a PDF of t...

Yeah, there's no problem with really hard games. There's definitely a problem with really hard games that don't tell you how to play them properly.

I'm pretty sure Alex has no intention of playing I Wanna Be the Guy or some other "frustration game" on stream. He loves well-designed games and IWBtG deliberately breaks fundamental rules of game design for shits and giggles. Eyri's Action is the same way. Default Dan might be worth at l...

I think the barrier for entry is absolutely necessary and it would be a lesser game if it just came out and explicitly explained all its systems. Dark Souls eschews teaching anything beyond basic controls in favor of teaching you the most important skill for progressing into the late game: observat...

I don't think there have been any videos done of highlander yet. I should probably correct that.

Really enjoyed the Dark Souls stream this afternoon. I know some of the chat's insistent advice was starting to get to Alex (and hopefully mine didn't get into that category), but I really enjoy watching game being played by people of all sorts of skill levels. And like I said at point, sure, Alex ...
