I think I asked this question before but I forgot the answer. I'm done Dark Souls. What's next? Dark Souls II or Scholar of Sin? And what's the difference between II and Scholar of Sin?

Play Scholar of the First Sin, it's just a redone version of Dark Souls 2 with better technical features and better enemy/item placement.

Still hoping for a remastered Demon's Souls at some point, but I am really enjoying DS3. The game has almost everything a Souls fan could hope for. Does Havel appear anywhere, I have his ring but I haven't seen him or his armor yet.

After you defeat him there, go back to where the Wolf of Farron is, go up where the Stray Demon is/was, and you can loot his armor. BE WARNED, its heavy as FUCK.

How are spells in this game? I have always sword and boarded my way to victories. (Along with some rolling)

Right now I haven't found armor that is better than the Knight armor I started with. I also found this poisoned wretched blade that I now have upgraded to level 4-5 or so, but have also tried a few greatswords and I love those - except when I equip it, my rolls suck and I am too heavy. Does increasing strength allow me to wear full plate, greatsword, but also maintain rolling?

I believe the stat you want is Vitality. That should increase your equip load which is what determines how much you can wear before you start fat rolling.

And tbh, in a game like Dark Souls....fashion > convenience. I'd rather look like a bawwz than care about my stats. (re: see Fashion Souls)

This game really is emphasis on fashion souls, it doesn't seem like poise is any good in this game at all anyway as you'll pretty much always get staggered regardless via weaponskills or just mashing attacks.

Yeah it's a bit disappointing that even with my 99% weight heavy tank build the poise is as strong as naked.

Good game, but needs some serious rebalancing in areas. Poise has to be looked at or else Vitality may as well be a dump stat at this point. Plus entire weapon classes are basically useless with the infinite poise monsters seem to have. Finally, enemy difficulty is all over the place, even compared to pre expansion DS2, with those fucking trees in the swamp being harder than most boss fights. Some boss fights are ludicrously easy to cheese past (any demon thing can be cheesed with starter bow), while others are dumb luck (giant lich thing). Magic is fairly meh and basically unusable against bosses, but Spook, Heal Aid, and magic shield do give great utility for minimal stat investment. Its worth getting at least a basic bow, as it trivializes 1/3rd of the game.

All that said, its way better than BB and the exploration aspects blow DS2 out of the water (though the zones are less epic in scope, there are tons of nooks to explore). I think once this gets the DS2 DLC treatment it will be the best in the series. As it is in its current form, its easily still GOTY material and has enormous replay value, due to different weapon styles and NPC quest lines.

These patch notes are shit, where is the real info?

Performance adjustment for "Greatsword"
? Battle performance adjustment for "Dancer's Enchanted Sword", "Winged Knight Twinaxes"
? Performance adjustment for "Soul's Greatsword", and "Farron Flashsword"
? Fix for issue where multiple items become impossible to use at "Road of Sacrifices", "Farron Keep", "Cathedral of the Deep" after clearing the game.
? General balance adjustments and bug fixes

I have Wolnir's and upgraded it once. The thing kicks all sorts of major keester, but then I am also fat rolling everywhere. So if I need to be more mobile, I'll switch it out.

PS: I haven't had to repair anything, ever. Is Durability even working?
