........I don't wanna play dark souls anymore..... sad
There's a difference of dying because of impatience, overconfidence and lack of skills
then do die because the game feels like it;
enemy having randomly longers attack distances,
(they hitting from meters away while you struggel hitting a dude right in front of you),
enemy hitting you desbide blocking
aaaaaaaand game desiding to let your character slide into a small hole.

B***S*** is what it is. emotion_donotwant

Just like the fact that enemies can swing their weapons
in tight corridors without penalty while yours stops dead
in it's track when.

Nor there is real reason wield more then 1 weapon, since there are no differences with weapon types, other then how much damage it makes
and even then it makes no sense.
My 1H long sword does waaaaaaaay more damage then a 2H claymore?!?!

Actually, the different weapons do different damage -types-, which affects how much damage enemies take. And if your scaling is different on the weapons, then yeah, it'll do more damage.

You're trying to look at Dark Souls the way that people look at other ARPGs, and you can't. It's related to them, but nothing like them. Accept that Dark Souls 1 has some design issues and move past them, or you are going to get too hung up on rage to keep playing.

Hey man, if all else fails just use this: link. Lots of good info on weapons and damage types, and other s**t, games so old now pretty much everything will be in there on the wiki. I loved Dark Souls, I played it a lot on the Xbox and got pretty savvy at getting through the game without wanting to break my controller hahaha.

I did, I mostly over-simplified things like holding on to the long sword I have
and ignore the rest of the weapons and don´t considering what I do as "leveling"
but as "upgrading".

But still feels pretty annoying with rest of the things happening. gonk
I just don´t wanna play it for awhile.

I'm still playing Diablo III.

It's a pretty decent game. 3nodding
Not as good as Diablo 2, but still an alright game.
How far are you and which difficulty?
