    After finishing DS2 SL1 a few days ago, Iron Passage was one of the better runbacks, the first section is probably the worst of it but the other two parts are so scripted. Felt the same about Sir Alonne’s Runback, first part was pretty bad but the second part was 100% consistent. I’m pretty sure most of my Runbacks were minor inconveniences at most, overall not too bad… …now Frigid outskirts on the other hand… i may have actually lost my humanity IRL doing that runback and boss over and over and over again… was probably the worst experience i’ve had in my entire No levelling Marathon.

    SL1 runs always felt so interesting because with no maiden to transpose souls into artificial strength, it feels like a regular person managing to overcome ancient heroes and monumental monsters. Especially with something as mundane as a rapier and poison. Is this how an ancient kingdom is overcome? Yes, yes it is.

    24:04 That Pharros Lockstone does indeed do something, it's one of the few "trap" devices in the game. You see that slot in the wall beside it? If you're a good little hollow, you stand in front of the device and wait for the illusory wall to start glowing. If you do, a saw blade comes out of that slot and hits you. That's about it.

    I am 100% with you on the "I don't PvP" bit. That said, I do prefer playing online because I consider player ghosts on almost a vital part of the atmosphere. Really appreciate Elden Ring letting me opt out of other people having fun by ruining my fun without going offline. Did toy with the idea of getting banned in DS3 and DS1 decided not to since but it's generally avoidable. Especially so in DS1 since being human gives you no benefit. I'm also pretty sure the ban servers would be worse :P

But now, after playing a few hours, i realized one thing...i can handle the janky controls, but what's REALLY annoying is the lock on.

Maybe let you keep a certain percentage of souls on death, hence "binding" the souls to you, or maybe every 100 kills or something like that acts to reduce 1 level of hollowing. You know, something to help reduce resource loss/consumption.

    Ever tried getting into the fallout or resident evil series, maybe even tried to think of different ways of trying to beat sekiro, like instead of just using thrust attacks, you can use normal attacks but you cannot dodge, sure its not as hard as the thrust only no dodging challenge you did, but its good to have different variants considering sekiro is a game where you may not beat the game in all the ways like in every other souls game, but different variants on their own is fine, even if you have already done it before, it can still be fun.

    Ds2 was pain, especially since I also decided to only use fists weapons, meaning I COULDNT WIELD THE CAESTUS UNTIL I GOT TO BRUME TOWER (needed the strength ring)! Yes, I could have two handed one caestus, but that looks silly, the only real way is to duel wield them (fashion is more important), and I could have used the conquerors seal, but didn't feel like farming 50 awestones (which I eventually did have to do for Burnt Ivory King and Lud and Zallen).
