I've been wondering what the point of a game that's so hard it's not even fun is? I've always played video games because they're fun. Am I wrong here? There is fun in challenge, and I would not say these games are too hard. And I'm a very casual player, apart from these games. Its more like "This is too hard. But then I did this, and now its not". It has a very fair difficulty, and anything thats too hard means you just haven't figured it out yet. Thats why you can go through it as any class with all sorts of different powers, because you can beat everything is mutiple ways, you just have to learn how to do it. There's very, very few 'cheap' deaths in the Souls series, and even those you can avoid once you know what they are. Anyone wanting a taste can also start with Dark souls 2, its so much easier than the other two its not even funny, and being newer means there's a lot more people online for co-op to help you more. Yep, bang on. Up above I said I thought it was Friskey I played with, but it was you JD, it was you all along!

What I learned from watching the Super Best Friends LP; • Drop your shield. • You know what I mean? • Perfect. • Also, Sauron is the last of the OG's.

Dying because of the difficulty never really frustrated me much. Dying to my own stupid mistakes did.

Also, spears have the potential to be king against mobs. My Silver Knight Spear served me well until about NG+4, had to trade it in for something quicker after that. Have enough range to keep-away most, and you can block and attack, not for as much damage, but enough to chip away.
Oh, and always strafe against humanoid enemies. If they're about the same height as you, you can usually get behind them and backstab them for ridiculous damage. Also works on the Iron Pig you find in the castle.

Well, maybe some day I'll get around to these games and maybe I won't. I'll always have this though and something tells me I'll have more fun watching this than playing the games.

So, the blue phantoms that pop up...are they people playing in real time? Can they see me too?
How long do messages stay up for? I'm guessing all the ones you see were recently put there?
I realize how much of a noob I'm looking like.

I cannot recall the answers, but seriously, you can probably beat he game and not know half the stuff in it, as it doesn't care to explain itself to you, so don't feel noob-ish, you are looking for knowledge, always admirable.
