Everyone does at first with these games.

Im more into fast paced games like DMC.
I beat most Dmc games on heaven and hell.
I like Ds 2 but it seems more difficult to me then the other even though on heaven and hell you die from 1 hit.
Guess it will take time to get used to.

You'll either have to summon help or wait until you level up.

It helps that if you first played Demon's Souls and DS 1. But the Souls games are supposed to be difficult. And everybody sucks at first.

I have also, beat the DMC games on Heaven and Hell mode I mean. It took me awhile to get use to DS1

Just beat Dragon Rider he was pretty easy compared to the 2nd boss.
Taking my time with this.

People who summon help from other players and grind in these games make me sick.

It has been proven that you can beat Demon's Souls and Dark Souls at Soul Level 1 the entire game.

Is Dark Souls 2 so different?

why do I have to win 500 battles to hit rank 3 in this covenant

Is this game worth getting? What I mean is what would people rate the fun factor of this game?

First it seems strange if you havent played the previous games mostly because of it being slow.
But it is fun I played about 7 hours with it just killed my 4th boss.
Cant wait to get my hands on some of the cooler spells.

For me its a 7-8/10

Yep I played Demon Souls, and Dark Souls, I was just hoping that it didn't fall off like so many other titles of the past. I also just went out and got it. They didn't have the collectors edition available though. Hope I'm not missing anything.

Not really. In the pre-order there was a sheet with codes for some weapons and shields that are accessible later in the game, but they're honestly not that good.

Either way, the combat system is completely revamped and while it may come off as "inferior" at first glance it's actually a lot better, especially for PvP.

Deprived. Also, make sure you pick the Bonfire Ascetic gift and you join the Covenant of Champions (accessible when you first reach Majula).

Seriously though, the Knight is probably the easiest to start with but the best class depends on what build you want to play.

I chose the Knight, but the big hulkish monster beat the mess out of me, blocking is useless because it reduces your stamina to nearly zero with only two hits. I'm starting over, and trying the build with the bow and arrow. This way I can lure the beast back towards the hut and wear him down from a distance. Wish they gave the Knight a bow or something, plus my sword was at risk after about hitting him about 20 times. This game is very entertaining but much harder than the first one.

When I began I got ripped apart by these rat looking creatures, I had no idea that you weren't supposed to attack them ha ha. Got a trophy from it though.

I leveled up and beat him easily. He has a lot of HP but once I got his moveset down it wasn't bad.

DS2, to me, is like a hybrid of DS1 and Demon's Souls. The AI for the NPCs seems to be smarer. I still can't back stab or parry like I can in the first two Souls games. But leveling up consumes a lot less souls than the previous games. Plus you can fast roll with heavy armor, weapons and shields.

Edit: I can't be sure of the tone of your post. But this boss is optional, and OP for early in the game. After you beat him there is a good armor set and weapon. I assumed given the area of the game he was describing that he was still early on playing. So I wasn't telling anyone to grind for souls or use a summons as a crutch.

I took the knight and made a tank build.

are you actually tanky I figured all vit builds might work better in this one with the raw upgrade giving pretty big base bonuses

its like youve never even played the game

blax go home
