No.

This is what bugs me about watching gameplay vids. People always walking everywhere and always guarding. Reactionary gameplay is NOT the way to go. Once you know how the enemies you're facing fight, you should always be on the offensive. Charge at them and strike first. Makes moving around so much faster.

I managed to clear the Depths/Sewers and the vagina-dragon in about 20 minutes by doing that (first time in the area) simply because the enemy AI sucks so much. They're hardly ever able to attack you if you run up to 'em, and once you get the first hit, they're staggered, and thus easy to kill.

also if a black phantom invades ur world, and u have 4 humanity's, 12000 souls and he comes in running at the speed of light and shooting fireballs that engluf the entire room, u teleport the hell out of there.

i didnt do that -_-, emo moment of the day

Stock up on upgraded weapons and armour then. The item load isn't there anymore, so you can.

Once you get a bow, get 50 standard arrows. go to the area under the bridge with the red dragon. shoot his tail like 30-40 times and you will get a special strong sword.

should help you a bit if you are having a hard time.

pfft where do u find a bow haha i need one bad

The merchant by the first bonfire in undead burg. the bonfire in a little room, with a ladder on the wall. when you step out of the room there is an archer in front of you and a guy coming up the steps on the right. there are guys throwing fire bombs to your left. go down the steps the guy came up and head left. there will be two spear soldiers. kill them, then destroy the boxes in that area in the middle to reveal stairs...you will find him after that.

Souls I didn’t thankfully but Sekiro I did.

mh ur right actually.

dark souls plays around with horror themes without being a straight "horror" game.

bloodborn definitely starts out as that haha.
