Discussion I need help with installing The Mad Warrior Edition mod for dark souls 2

0 Upvotes

I've been trying to get it for forever, but it just wouldn't work, using UXM, unpacking it is simple and no errors, but once I patch, the game sends an error when I launch it, and if don't patch and just add the mod to the game directory, or unpack without patching, the game launches, but many things are off, missing/invisble/unusable, I tried everything, and ran out of options, so please, if anyone manages to get this mod up and running, teach me, thank you.

Question Build Ideas for a first-timer

4 Upvotes

After playing the shit out of Elden Ring, I've decided to go back and try the Dark Souls series.

The DS1 remaster I found surprisingly easy, with a two-handed big axe. I'd like to try something different, but the allure of big bonk is strong. Is a hybrid pyro/bonk worth looking at, or should I stick to full pyro if I want to try that magic?

Thanks!

Lore Why don't Hollow Soldiers attack Ogres?

9 Upvotes

If Hollow Soldiers are like zombies behaving on remnant memories, guarding the fort and attacking intruders, why don't they react to roaming huge Ogres?

I can understand them not attacking dogs since they're probably hollowed versions of their dogs, but other monsters?

Discussion I kinda like this game

10 Upvotes

I wasnt the biggest ds2 fan, after playing er I decided to pick up ds2, and the game was not fun whats so ever, controls are awful, and everything feels slow, bloated and floaty. But after replaying ds3 replaying er twice and beating ds1 I decided to give ds2 another shot, and holy shit im addicted to this clunky game, ive played it for over 20 hours over past three days I have been so hooked and enthralled, Idk what it is, gameplay is not really fun enemies are overbaked, the bosses are a joke (I just defeated the first 4) and the soundtrack is eh. But the level desgin and the well crafted casualty of the game really makes this game so good. Probably even better than ds1

Question Counter Damage attack window

1 Upvotes

So Counter Damage kicks in when I attack an attacking enemy. My question is does an enemy's recovery frames after they've finished their swing also count within the Counter Damage window? Or do I specifically need to hit them while they're mid-swing?

I wonder if there are in game characters that look like characters from other fantasy stories, besides the obvious heavy Kentaro Miura influence here and there.

Screenshot A little funny thing about polish translation of Dark Souls 2

Post image
354 Upvotes

Playing Dark Souls 2 in Polish, I noticed a funny little thing- weapons with infusions use contracted form of the infusion's name. Since the polish word for darkness is mrok, it shortens it to Mr., thus making it look like my weapon's name is "Mr. Scythe"
