After having a bit of a mare in Dark Souls 2 on Friday spending the best part of a 2 hour stream dying in those Abyss caverns and the Dragon Eyrie I had a far more productive session on Saturday afternoon hitting up all the memories, aced Vendrick, killed Nashandra and
Aldia to finish the game. I had a crack at Dark Lurker but it seems they've nerfed his weakness to fire so I may have to rethink my approach.
I started the first DLC area and it's already more impressive than anything in the main game having an almost Zelda-like vibe to it with
some basic puzzles. It was around that point where the cans started to catch up with me and I had to call off the stream. Hoping to venture further into Shulva and the Dragon Sanctum soon.
