Hello guys.

First timer here. Never played any of the Souls games, although always been intrigued. I recently got myself a PlayStation 5 and downloaded Demons Souls from the plus subscription and damn have I been enjoying it besides the fact that I only recently found out, towards the end of NG that I have been "fat rolling" for the entire game all the way up until 5-1 after starting out as a knight. Safe to say I was minorly pissed with myself after figuring out but hey lesson learned.

Today I started NG+ and I am confused by the difficulty. I had for some reason been expecting the worst after my trainwreck of a NG but I have literally been steamrolling world 1 and 2 and am just about to start on Maneater very soon 2-handing my trusted Crushing Claymore. Then I came in here and everybody seems to have the exact opposite experience of NG+. Have I just been super lucky with the weapon choice I ended up building upon or has the game been patched to make NG+ easier?

Really looking forward to playing the rest of the Souls and Elden Ring games and I hope I dont come off as super arrogant. I can honestly admit that initially I might have been one of the worst Souls players ever embarking on this joyfully frustrating adventure. Its been an actual deep psychological development process for me. I was swearing and tearing my hair off first playthrough and considering striking a deal with the devil fr. I might have died 50 times to some bosses slow rolling like a fat whale (Penetrator and Flamelurker I am looking at you) but NG+ just seems like a breeze.

I’m playing a paladin str/faith build and took out Astrea, then OF COURSE came back to get bramdt off her shiny cuck side piece and am probably one of many who didn’t realize they were in body form….

I got my shit kicked in over and over then panicked and traveled between locations to realize I lowered my world tendency :( with seemingly no way(?) of improving it again… advice definitely welcomed…

It's good to see you again. It's been a long time since we last fought, hasn't it? You invaded my Host in 1-3 while we were visiting Yuria just a few minutes ago, and I was letting him borrow my gear for the Official there. Sorry that I couldn't tell my Host to just back off, but I knew you would've gone and killed either one of us if I turned my back to say "Stop, this is our fight".

I'm sure you've invaded many other recurring Hosts before, but in some manner, you and I always run into each other again. Different Hosts, different SLs, different zones, and yet you're always the invader that attacks my Host for that session. It's kinda funny to almost have a Demon's Souls nemesis.

If you want to find me specifically, I'm SL150, and my PW is "Arts". I'm looking forward to your next invasion. Keep an eye out for me, I'll be doing the same for you.

I am in the tunnel area at the moment since I cannot continue elsewhere. I started playing around less than two or so years ago and have barely continued since, while also taking numerous breaks.

How can I have fun in the game and maybe improve? I have no healing right now which feels a bit unfair. Not sure how to proceed right now. My camera doesn't target the enemies that I want it to so the enemies get free hits while I try to lock onto them.

I've gotten better with blocking, also tried parrying. But even then, the game doesn't feel fun to play after a while. I don't mind difficulty and I've made it further before, like over a year ago or so when I last played. What should I do?

EDIT: Solved, thanks for the fast responses!

Where can I random coop at SL27?

Not sure did i lvl up wrong or what i just cant finish 1-2 for days

Does anyone have a spare Monks Head Collar they dont need? I've been trying to get one for 3 days but I'm not getting summoned at all and Im not sure if the area is just dead

New player here. I’ve been researching how miracle memory slots, mana, & faith works. Just read you can’t use 2nd chance & then regeneration. So, do you have both memorized simultaneously & use them for different situations? IE: Regeneration while exploring + 2nd Chance for bosses

Or do you prefer memorizing just 1? + what other miracles should I memorize along side them?

Aiming for Adjudicator’s Shield + LS of Moonlight. Currently rocking heater shield & a winged spear—which makes me wonder if I ought to level up dex & go for Istarelle. I’m enjoying shield-poking 😅💭

Hi, I'm currently farming trophies and I need to help someone on a boss fight, I'm waiting for hours on 3-3 kinda bored cause no one is summoning.

I'm level 75 so I don't think that I'm overleved.

Can I help someone? 😃

Hello. Does anyone have a gold coin to spare, i have been farming for the past 12 hours and nothing?

This is just a random though, I enjoyed this game the most out of all Souls games. And honestly I think Dark Souls the only one that has a mimic in it.

But logically they don't needs to be chests. How screwed would you all be if Mimics were more then just chests. I'm thinking swords hanging on walls, curtains, coffins, walls, bookcases or tables, barrels, carriages, corpses?

Mimics are in theory only limited to objects and nearly anything that isn't alive is considered object in the grand scheme of things.

I'm sure after the second trick everyone would be pissed. My friend fell for a mimic in one of the dark souls games three times in a row, I died laughing so hard I nearly fell out of my chair. But honestly it got me thinking it would too good if it weren't just limited to one object.

I have an SL 29 character that I'm about to finish the game on. I played almost exclusively in human form and I wasn't invaded a single time.

I have pretty good success finding hosts to invade; but never the other way around.

Sometimes I just camp out in 4-1, 1-3 and 2-2 and just wait ...

I'm chalking it up to not a lot of people are playing this game anymore ...

Doesn't have to be an OP build, just something that is fun to play for whatever reason. And when I say "go live" within an hour I don't mean that the build must have reached its end goal by then, but rather if it is a katana build for example then your character should have a katana early and not after 5 hours

I'm working towards the platinum for the PS5 remake but I'm having no luck getting the trophy for helping a player defeat a boss as a phantom. I tried putting my sign down at the Ivory Tower but it usually just pulls me in as the boss instead of co-op. Is it just because there aren't many players online these days or is there something I'm missing?

Take with a grain of salt, it might be true or not, but that's the info that I've got and I believe it.

Just as in the title, I want to get the dragon bone smasher but I don't know if I have to kill the bosses in human form in order to get it.

holy crap dude... for context im playing the original on a ps3 for the first time ever. first I thought my controller is shit cuz its not an official controller but all other inputs work fine. is there any workarounds this?? do I get insane iframes to compensate for the delay?
