The Rage of Dark Souls

Yep, you read the title right. Just picked up Dark Souls from Gamefly and did an all nighter on this.

Now I understand the frustrations that everyone has been going through when they first played this game, lol. Before I get into more details on my first playthrough of the game, allow me to share a piece of advice. No, let me re-phrase, allow me to warn you about this game. For those that haven't played Dark Souls, if you are not that type of gamer that can handle complex games like Dark Souls, I wouldn't recommend it. You'll be going on for days and stressing out on it. But that's just me. If you want to test your skill, have fun, but don't say I didn't warn you.

Anyways, back on to the main topic. As I got started, I was already put through a boss battle. Nothing too troublesome since I was still going through the tutorial phase. After beating the boss, that's when the nightmare begins. As you progress through the game, you are given various paths to venture through. I took a path towards a graveyard. When I came across some enemies, they already one-shoted me without being able to put up a fight.  When I revived, I began to try some different strategies to take them out one by one. But in some strange and ridiculous ways, they would still be able to surround me kill me off quickly. I already started venting after a few more times. Once it became too much, I decided to quit and go another path until I get better equipment. As you can see, I've been through the game for at least 5 mins and it already became really annoying right from the start. There were a few times I was about ready to throw the control at the TV (Thank goodness that didn't happen).  But yea, in this game, you'll need to be very tactful on how you approach enemies and traps cause they'll surprise you in many ways. So far, I just beat the third boss in the game, I still got a long way to go though. Might make a video of my fails on this just for the heck of it, lol.
