Dark Souls 1, I faced Artorias a few times and decided I'm not good enough yet, so I'm breaking from the game for now to practice in other games in this exact series/genre instead
This might be the threshold that gets me to ask a friend for help, but I'd like to test my skills against a wider variety of things and come back to this challenge before I decide I'm willing to call in people with more experience to push past it
Artorias is finally down, it required dozens of attempts but I was able to follow the patterns for long enough without choking. By the time I made it through I barely had to heal at all, which (IMO) is the platonic ideal for how this kind of difficult boss fight should go
@Lobst Good luck on the next boss. That one gave me more trouble than any other in the franchise.
@srol Oh, I've seen footage; it looks brutal, but I'm looking forward to experiencing it firsthand regardless
Took down Kalameet and Manus tonight; Kalameet was a ranged-only battle that took multiple evenings to develop the muscle memory for. Manus was easier because I'd overleveled both my equipment and myself, and stumbled upon the magic-nullifying pendant by accident, whoops :v
