Anyway, I have now finished it and ready to begin the struggle all over again… This time though I was a bit annoyed with myself for not persevering as I didn’t know I was so close to unlocking a shortcut that would allow me to bypass that section and continue with the rest of the game. Over the recent weeks with the Dark Souls III hype building I was determined to go back and finish it off before the new one is released. With that under my belt I bought the sequel and began the journey all over again and was doing great until I reached that bloody Undead Crypt with those bloody bells and those bloody Leydia Pyromancers! That section really did my head in and I’m sad to say I gave up again! Somehow, after I don’t know how many attempts, I did it! Then about a year later when Scholar Of the First Sin was about to be released, I got caught up in the hype and decided to go back and finish off the first one. I Just could not beat him even with the help of many YouTube videos.

It was tough and I got stuck many times trying to beat the various bosses, but I could see how it was possible to overcome them being very careful and using perfect timing.īut then I got to Lord Vendrick himself and hit a brick wall. When it came on sale on Xbox Live I decided to take the plunge and buy it. A few years ago the first one was constantly being mentioned in the Inbox. The Dark Souls games are a funny old series. We’re sure they could’ve worked around that problem if they really wanted but… they didn’t. GC: You can play the game offline, but the saves are completely separate. I understand it in the Elusive Contracts that should be dropping, as it is designed for you to only have one crack at it, but surely they are setting themselves up for trouble by forcing in the normal story contracts? Seems like an odd choice to me unless I am missing something blatant. I have heard that this game is always online and that people have had issues being disconnected and it chucking them out of their game, surely this isn’t just to track the leaderboards? I particularly like the fact that you can track Opportunities and it’ll essentially guide you to getting a unique kill, and also that it has feats and challenges for you to go back and tackle. The amount of options and freedom is what I was after and they supply that in abundance. I’ve ‘finished’ the first season or episode of Hitman and I was pretty impressed.
