Soulslike - Discussion, News, Memes

As most players did, I b-lined it to Margit. Unlike most players, I sat there for about 5 hours trying to beat him, thinking it was normal in a soulslike

After finally defeating Margit, I trekked through the castle, finally getting back to the courtyard. After dying 5 times and with no idea where to go, I (finally) decided to explore limgrave

Unfortunately, the first thing I found was the secret passage past the castle

So I waltzed into the lands of raya lucaria, except I didn't, because the first thing I did was take the teleporter past it to that manor in the top left of the map

Because of this, I found myself venturing all the way to Loretta, at which I was stuck for another couple hours trying to beat her

After all that, I didn't even go and meet Ranni in the tower because I tpb back to the starting area after I realised I was probably in the wrong spot to continue on in

To be clear, throughout this I was heavily underleveled, underequipped and didn't have my physick

So that's the story as to how I beat Loretta as my second boss (including mini bosses)

I guess you could say my first playthrough was a little special

Went on to beat Malenia in my second playthrough, absolute gem of a game
