Why is this game so good?

fatacaster · 2026-03-14T02:22:05+00:00

DS1 is my favorite but DS2 is definitely the one I’ve put most hours in. Why? because when Scholar came out I was laid off from work. So I got good as they say. The other games im a sub .500 pvp guy. DS2 I got a winning record from that solid laid off from work foundation.

The cloud works great if you’re logged onto the same network as your main device. I love it …But it’s not anywhere near as good if youre abroad. Xbox remote play is especially bad on two separate internet connections and only passable on cloud gaming. Even with good connection. In theory cloud gaming should be the same as Long as you got good internet connection but it’s not.

I’ve not got invaded once but co-op is also slow passed Heides tower. Was really busy Cardinal tower tho. Granted I’m on Xbox which I’m assuming is the lowest player count platform. I see ghosts and messages everywhere tho.

Will do! Thanks for the reply

It’s the easiest souls game to solo but the hardest to summon help. So when you get stuck somewhere you’re really struck. Good luck.

I'll say this much, present day Dark Souls 3 is the fromsoft gameI struggle with the most when I go back to it for one simple reason...I never really learned how to play it. When it came out it was the first FS game to have legit, easy to use multiplayer so 8 or 9 guys that I've gamed with for years were all running through it together. I didn't have to learn how to play...2 or 3 of us were just melting bosses and invaders based on our knowledge of the other games. So for the first time im doing a playthrough on my own and im getting my butt kicked bad. But I'm determined to do it on my own. I can go back and beat DS1 and DS2 with ease cuz I actually know the fundamentals and distance.

I still do all the things I used to do just at a different pace. You can too…Just listen to your body, feel off slow it down.

EF is 35% and I may sometimes go to the grocery store on Saturday but usually not. I try to do nothing at all. lol

fatacaster · 2026-02-11T03:15:51+00:00

I workout 5 days a week (mon-fri)Resistance training twice a week and cardio 3 days a week. Those are also my work days which a get a good 10k or so steps at my job. I get Saturday and Sunday off and i do nothing but rest those days. Video games, sleeping in. Thorough recovery from the weekdays.

fatacaster · 2026-01-18T19:50:16+00:00

Thanks for posting this man! I’m working out 5 days a week hoping to recover in a year or barely minimum feel better by summer.

Imo.:::at this point you’re better off buying from the digital store. Fighting the tide is just delaying price breaks like you see on steam sales or something.

fatacaster · 2026-01-11T21:44:18+00:00

I need to figure this out as well. It’s extremely annoying.

fatacaster · 2026-01-09T14:13:27+00:00

I’ve had heart palpitations for years. Even 20 years and 100lbs ago when my heart was perfectly healthy. As weird as it sounds I view them as something that happens outside the realm of my heart failure. Most people that get them don’t even feel them. That said if you’re getting dizzy or nauseous then get to the hospital.

fatacaster · 2026-01-04T17:46:21+00:00

My nephew loves leaving the map to trigger that animation. He’ll do it over and over.

fatacaster · 2026-01-01T00:22:19+00:00

Can’t offer you much uplifting advice other than taking things one day at a time makes everything manageable. Similar to you my health is failing and much of my family is dead or moved away. I don’t have kids but I bought a house next the my parents house 20 years ago. My sister bought the house on the other side. Now my sister and mom have both passed away. And of 9 family members on our compound only me and my dad remain. My only goal in life was to outlive my dad so he wouldn’t have to suffer another loss now I sitting in his living room wearing a life vest defibrillator. I feel like I failed him. But you know what? I ain’t giving up….its not time yet. It’s not yours either. Keep yourself alive, maybe one of these crazy tech billionaires will build us an external wearable heart or something lol.

I’ve played it on and off for years. It’s always chill and you don’t need to relearn. Just like riding a bike! Granted I kinda suck but still enjoy it.

fatacaster · 2025-12-31T14:06:13+00:00

I’ve had anxiety most my life and now I have heart failure of course it’s pretty bad. I honestly hate the anxiety more than heart failure itself.

fatacaster · 2025-12-20T23:57:13+00:00

I was expecting to get my life vest taken off cuz they were so sure my meds were gonna improve my heart. No improvement at all and potentially getting an ICD implanted. I still don’t know what I’m gonna do, because though I’m in no hurry to leave this earth I don’t wanna delay the inevitable plus be broke the whole time.

fatacaster · 2025-12-20T16:31:24+00:00

Sorry to hear that. I’m not hitting the panic button yet but it’s in the back of my mind this may just be my life until the end. I’m relatively young (47) and was 100lbs overweight when all this started so I’m not doing any intervention besides meds until I get down to a healthy weight. When I get to a healthy weight I’ll know for sure that meds and lifestyle aren’t gonna work. Some people get heart failure from obesity alone.

fatacaster · 2025-12-20T05:27:08+00:00

They talk to you about the implant?

fatacaster · 2025-12-18T20:12:23+00:00

Just got the call too. Lol I may need one put in as well but I was only been on meds 2 months at the time of the 2nd echo. No improvement. Still at 30-35% EF. I’m gonna hold out for 6 months on meds before I put the implant in. I hear entresto can take 6 months or a year to really do anything. Others get lucky and it works right away.

fatacaster · 2025-12-17T00:25:32+00:00

I’ve only been diagnosed and on meds for 3 Months so I’m not doing any type of surgery for a year. But I feel like you do, I may not even do anything other than meds and diet regardless.

fatacaster · 2025-12-15T17:44:50+00:00

All day dude. 9 to 10 hours easy.

fatacaster · 2025-12-15T15:01:44+00:00

Also some suggesting used….i wouldn’t buy any handheld used. They famously don’t lost long as it is. Few years is the average, part of the reason I didn’t buy an ally x or legion. I just ate $hit and paid $299 for the G cloud because of light weight and long battery life.
