Dark Souls can cause cognitive dissonance in the novice gamer. When deaths follow one another during the training, the realization comes that it will be much worse. However, many people want to go through this difficult game.
Instructions
Step 1
One of the highlights is the calm reaction to death in the game world. Be prepared for almost every element in Dark Souls to try to kill you. More often than not, these attempts will be successful. Insidious traps, aggressive undead, abysses - all this can take your life at any time and send you to the spawn point. Remember that unexpected and stupid deaths are okay. Just analyze your actions and do not repeat similar mistakes in the future.
Step 2
Study your enemies. After all, the more you know about the dangers, the easier it will be to overcome them. If this is your first time encountering an enemy, then try to pay attention to any detail of his behavior. Memorize your fighting style, weaknesses and attacks. This also applies to the passage of bosses. Know that knowledge in this game is acquired through death and error. But in the future, it can become a very powerful weapon.
Step 3
Be careful. Light-hearted walks in Dark Souls tend to end badly and unpleasantly. Prepare for anything and carefully examine your surroundings. In this game, every little thing matters. If you listen to the sounds, you can find out about a possible ambush. If you look at your step, you will not fall into the trap. Once in unfamiliar places in the game, you should not rush and rush there, headlong. The main thing is accuracy.
Step 4
Adhere to the rule not to miss more than one sane NPC on your way. In Dark Souls, there are already few of them. They can offer help, share value, and provide helpful advice. Listen carefully to what the characters are telling you. Start a dialogue with them several times until the lines begin to repeat. Some characters after such actions will offer their services.
Step 5
In the game, from the very beginning, there will be weapons that can serve you throughout the game, until the very final credits. If you do not forget to improve your favorite weapons at the blacksmith, then in any case, your investment will not be lost. Find the most suitable mace or sword and pump it as you progress through Dark Souls. An important point - titanite must first of all be spent on upgrading weapons, not armor.
Step 6
Decide on your style of play. Dark Souls has a flexible class system, but no matter what character you choose, then something completely different can turn out from him. If in battle you rely on mobility and speed, then the key parameters for pumping are Dexterity and Endurance. If you play as a mage, then you should pay attention to Intelligence and Attunement. Faith and Attunement are important to a cleric. And such parameters as Vigor (increases maximum health) and Adaptability (increases the speed of rolls, raising the shield and resistance to damage) are the same for all players.
