Sorry to disappoint you Hexxy! To be fair it hasn't exactly been plain sailing, but I am finding it a smoother ride than expected so far.
Yeah I assumed they were going to be easy for everyone, there just doesn't seem to be much they (or their helpers) do to actually stop you!
I fully expect to be "found out" soon, as I've become a bit one-note in my tactics in the last couple of areas. Most things seem to struggle with well timed heavy attacks so I've been tanking stuff quite a lot. The nimbler enemies, such as a couple of hunters who I came across last night, provide more of a challenge as you need to be more on your toes and agile to combat them. I suspect that the next boss I come to which has some of those qualities may cause me some more trouble and get me back to a more varied play style!
Genuinely think that Father Gascoigne has been the hardest challenge thus far!
The whole this is just hugely enjoyable though, I'd put it on par with DS1 so far but I can see it taking the top spot if it carries on like this. There is a bit more "obvious" lore going on in this - messages and notes that give details on the world, a greater number of NPCs you can talk to and learn cryptic hints about what is going on etc. I love it.
Still massively suspicious of the dude in the Odeon Chapel - "send people here, nothing bad will happen to them honest... hehehehe!" Hmm, not so sure mate! I've had the option to send a lady of the night to join him there but have declined to tell her about him as I don't think his intentions are honourable!
