You have to have already gotten past the archers when you meet Ornie and Sumo.  I'd just give one piece of advice: you only get the soul of the one you defeat last, so if you want both then you'll have to defeat the other one in New Game Plus.  I killed Ornstein first and I think I'm going to regret that while trying to take down SuperSmough in NG+.

Only thing that could make that better is if they decided to patch out GFWL from the first game. 

Either way, sold!

Still needs to prove to me that the port isn't a piece of shit without third-party mods before I'll touch it.  And even then, not at full price.

The only game ever I didn't even consider playing on a PC. It could be perfect, it could be higher resolution, and I'd still feel "it's not right". For all the times I've complained that some games just need to be played on a PC, I feel this belongs to the PS3.

Maybe I just want to make sure I cannot tab out to Chrome and look for walkthroughs when I am knee deep into some hard shit part. It has to feel suffocating, and a console is perfect for that.

It's not consolitis though when a game was born and conceived for consoles, and the controls feel totally natural there.

Were you using a controller?  Keyboard/mouse is not the only control scheme out there and I really hate that somehow controller started to = console when some pc games have been better suited to controllers for a very long time.

I also like a controller for a lot of PC games. Like remember back when we had a football game?  Ohhhhh, I see.

No, i don't have a controller. For one thing I have pretty large hands and they are not designed for anyone above the normal hand size so they were never very comfortable for me. Anyway, doesn't matter much. I'll watch the videos.

So I went to the release party for this in San Francisco (It was 2 blocks from my work). I'm still bitter. The facebook invite said started at 6:00. A friend and I got there around 5:45 and there was a line of about 50 guys waiting. They opened to door at 6:00 and promptly started letting friends of the devs, and other industry people while us in line just got to stand and wait. Right next to an empty lot with 20 portable toilets in it. That stank. Oh yeah, and there was construction with jack hammering about 20 feet from us also. Every 10 minutes they would let in about 2 or 3 people from the line, and another 10 to 15 people who just walked up and got to bypass the line.

After an hour of this one of the guys who seemed to be in charge came out and stated "We are really really sorry for this guys" and my friend replied back "How about you just let everyone in then?" to which the guy responded "Oh we cant, the club is at capacity" right as they are letting another group of about 5 guys bypass the line.

We left and we to get a beer somewhere else. Fucking horrible event. Way to treat your best supporters like shit. I'm tempted to cancel my preorder because of this fuckery.

Looks like it was poorly planned, look towards the bottom:  http://www.reddit.com/r/DarkSouls2/comments/1zku3r/ds2_launch_event_in_san_fran_ca_this_week/

It was open bar, so I'm guessing nobody left.  I mean, I wouldn't have left either once I got into an open bar at a club.

Any idea how much this new coop ring is gonna cost ingame?  If it's ridiculously expensive then I'll just get the ps3 version, which is the same price as 360 b4 live gold (which I refuse to buy).

clarification:  okay, supposedly to play coop w/friends (summon your friends and vice versa) you need a special ring along w/being in the same covenant.  This would make it worth it to me to buy the xbox version, as most of my friends play on it...  however, if said ring is a kerbiliion souls then eff that, I'll just buy the ps3 version and save the live gold subscription cost.  (I canceled my live gold acct)  There's been no indication on how much this ring will cost and if I wait until after release I obviously lose my pre-order.   note:  This go around the ps3 version is the same price as the xbox version, however the xbox version will obviously require a sub. fee.

Meh, maybe I'll just wait a day and see how much of a cockstab coop play is b4 worrying about it.  Screw the pre-order.

Why on earth would you expect said ring to be expensive?  The last game had hardly anything actually COST money, even some of the rarer items were somewhat simple to get(drake sword) If anything one would expect top get the co-op ring just for joining a covenant.

Unless this one is magially more difficult than Dark Souls, I'd not worry about it.

However, since this is a thing it means I'm going to have to get it on 360.

Not exactly the opening of Prey or the Mad World Gears of War commercial or even that GORGEOUSLY misleading Dead Island trailer. But at least it was gameplay footage.

Helpful hint they probably could have made more clear for people who have played the previous game, but you no longer level up at bonfires. You have to go to a particular NPC in Majula who is incredibly easy to overlook.
