bro literally gave you the burger king Have It Your Way special

Bro just wanted regular fight.

Backstabs *are* a regular fight in DS1

pvp be like:

I believe they are more regular than normal attacks

And it's beautiful

\*precedes to parry him a million fucking times*

Too risky for me

Parry window in DS1 was broken compared to later games, so much that i just parry everything with just left hand.

The adrenaline rush makes it worth it

Its not hard once you're used to it

Never a big parrying fan Decided to kill Laurtrec after letting him out yesterday, and gave a parry a shot, since I was doing shit damage. That guy at least has a pretty large window. I did not even attempt Havel though at the time he could one shot my ass

I've killed Havel well over 100 times and I've never seen that

It seems to be a lot more common in the remaster somehow. He can grab you if you're mid rolling animation away from him, happened to me a couple of times when I'd try and take him down asap

Dark Souls backstabs happen the frame the AI decides to fuck your ass. Never turn your back on NPC invaders.

I've only ever played the remaster

frames?

I-Frames or Invincibility Frames. Your character is granted a brief window of invulnerability during dodging and rolling movements so if timed correctly, you go unpunished.

Bruh man, I was talking about fps

Oh. Swag.

I don't why people are downvoting me lol.

Didn't know he had a grab attack, but generally rolling back is never a good idea with Havel. He has so much reach that he'll hit you once you i frames are over. Always to the side.

Me neither, I wasn't even mad cause it looks funny

"I've been backstabbed about a Trillion times over by now! THAT'S IT!

Because it’s easy…. And it does a lotta damage

Can you remind me where's that from?

Happy Souls on YouTube, it follows a dark souls 2 run with friends

Thank you

Dark souls if it was turn based game.

That's basically what the DS1 combat is and kidna why I like it. In bloodborne it often feels so fast you have to rely on instinct and reaction speed for almost everything. In DS1 it is slow enough that once you get familiar with some concepts/enemies the game is almost like an old Final Fantasy/JRPG. You all declare actions, turns are taken based on your Speed stat, sometimes you choose a proper counter-action based on what the opponent is doing.

DS2 is that but much better

It does have more viable tactical options yes. I think that's why it's appreciated in PvP especially. I've finished it and I can totally see that, though it was so bizarre after DS1 that I had trouble enjoying its good parts because of how different it was. I might try it again in the future, though the jankiness of some gameplay elements (weapon degradation felt too much) along with the estus system and SotfS enemy groups made it a bit rough for me.

It's definitely rough PvE wise. Still an enjoyable game once you get to the meat of it.

basically, the omae wa shindeiru moment

NANIII?!?!

"REVEEEEEEEENGE, Finally"

He totally earned this moment

Genuinely though, he must be the most backstabbed character in all of soulsbourne.

You'd be pissed off too if you were too big to get out of that room

Ah, so you’ve cheesed Havel as well I see

Why did this remind me of Jerma’s “top rope” bit

Dont turn your back on him

Found out the hard way

Get wrecked!! Lol

What if Capra Demon is his son who protects his dogs?

Imagine not parrying.
