Fluff Dark Souls Cured my depression and replaced it with frustration.

1 Upvotes

I've figured out a radical new way to use Dark Souls to cure depression. (first time playing remastered) Step 1. Be depressed Step 2 spend hours on the first level leveling up endurance and vitality as you get pwned by random enemies the second you forget this isn't PuBG. Step 3. Now that you're in a state of exhaustion from suppressed frustration and you blood pressure has spiked to 200, it's time to do pushups until burn off the adrenaline and the last remainder of your sanity. Depression cured. Something something male loneliness epidemic. Something something I'm a first year intern getting paid by Atlantic to pretend it's not systemic and write blogs nobody cares to read. See Mens-es-es are fine, let me tell ya.

For tomorrow's insightful-blog-TM : Everything I dislike is a fascism, including and especially working out from Dark Souls. How antiquated gender norms, definitely definitely not systemic well-known, scientifically recognized in all major journals facts about men having smaller social networks keep men depressed in atomized anomied fodder for bigtech exploitation in late capitalist dystopia (that only exist when we need it). Trust the science as long as it agrees with me or penguinz. All right wingers are grifter, but Dr. K not therapizing Rekfull off a 10 story building is just one of many experiments.

Alright, no time to waste on rube issues of male suicide or homelessness, that's just the patriarchy fooling ya'll. Time to go for the root of it all an eliminate man-spreading from the face of the eeeearffff! As an AOC representative my first ruling will be to relegate man-spreading to the ones who need it most: butch lesbians insecure about their masculinity.

It is my solemn duty to provide acccess to scarce man-spreading resources to make butch lesbians mog again. Namaste, m'lady--ies.

Hello everyone, I probably didn't make the best option, but I started getting acquainted with the dark souls series from the third part, which part is better to go through next?

Discussion Why doesn't Velka kill Gwyn?

Did they kill or banish velka or what is going on? Shouldn't they just kill Gwyn for doing the sin of fire?

the giant ass crow in firelink should mean Velka is still powerful in this world because there are no giant crows in teh painted world.

Discussion DS3 is easy

0 Upvotes

Since I started souls via Elden ring I heard so many people discrediting people who finished Elden ring saying ds3 was way harder. Like what? Every single boss I kill either first try or under 3 tries. This is my second playthrough and I remember beating slave knight Gael in around 7 tries and the final boss around 5. Don’t get me wrong I love the game and the vibe but it’s not harder than Elden ring at all

I don't know what your name was because it was censored but you just gave me like 40 different titanite items and 35 humanities before we had an honorable duel (where I lost horribly) I was stressed because I was down to my last humanity trying to get solaire and I through O&S but you came in clutch before promptly slaying me. Thank you sincerely.

I had a client reach out and said her son's favourite game is darksouls and his favourite overall is Artorias but she wouldn't know much about it and asked if I knew..

Well she asked the right person, cos it's my husband's all time favourite game series..so I thought The Great Sword would so cool in stained glass 🗡️

I'm really happy with it :)

Help Need help routing a run

3 Upvotes

I'm setting up to do a Dark Hand Only run and want to avoid having to take it into NG+, given by the time I hit Gwyn, the damage will have DRASTICALLY fallen off. I'm trying to figure out the best rohte to get strong enough to take ijt the four kings early and get ONE hand, before turning around and farming a second one later.

My thought goes: Butterfly, Sif, Four Kings, and bring Beatrice for Butterfly and Kings for the bonus damage. Is there anything I should do to help myself out?
