Overall sorcery is pretty one dimensional and not really all that fun. I went sorcery and ended up using my sword pretty much everywhere where I don’t need longer range. Incantations definitely seem like what I really wanted, sorcery is just various flavors of shoot something in a direct line at a target.

I am going to respec from STR/DEX soon I think I am not even that far into the game but I want to try this Sword of Night and Fire or whatever I found today. I guess I'll push Faith with it and get incantationts to fuck around with too. I've certainly found a lot of prayer books (like 6 so far) just fucking around.

i do it. everyone else in the world uses controller and loves it. I did a little remapping. you have to change a menu option to make it display hotkey tips for things in real people language instead of calling everything R2 etc.

The is the first From game that I’ve played with multiplayer turned off and I can’t imagine playing with it turned on in any future games. I’m sure the few items I’ve missed because of it is worth not seeing that bullshit spam all over the place and dealing with trolls and assholes putting signs near levers and whatnot.

I was wondering what that was. I picked it up but didn't notice it go anywhere or do anything

Lol that could be your first run and the parry will oneshot most people.
The amount of people that don't know about or use the physick flask to not get assraped by Mohg is too damn high. I was thinking this would be a good sunbro fight to farm at for a bit given how little trouble I had with him but noooooope. Hosts just fall over like flies during his phase change.

Can confirm sorcery ultimately turned out to be lame. It's a bit of a bell curve really, where you suck balls for the first 30-40 levels, then you find the meteor spell and are a god all the way to level 90-100 or whatever, then you just kinda stop using sorcery all together in favor of which ever big INT scaling weapon you prefer, and sorcery gets relegated to niche/utility for things like the greatsword for trash clear or sniping weird/annoying targets (basically just being a bow).
I'm not really sure why there are a dozen different versions of glinstone pebble, and they all fucking blow? Like even at 80 INT with a +10 Rennala staff casting stuff like glinstone comet is literally pointless as you'll empty your FP bar before you kill anything that matters. None of them do even half the damage that meteors do, and they have dogshit range and huge FP costs. The moon spells take literally 3 entire years to cast, so not sure what the point of those are either.
The kamehameha memes are pretty funny at least?

I beat it fine on Mouse Keyboard. I assume you have a scroll wheel on your mouse which is integral. I also have an MMO mouse but sadly it can't be mapped. The Key mapping for PC is dogshit though.

I started 2 Handed Sword + Board. There are some amazing Faith Weapons that you can still play SWORD + BOARDish with (Blasphemous Blade, Curved Greatsword etc) but having the incantations to buff + utility and also being able to use some of the crazy faith weapon arts is amazing. I definitely feel like the game actually got a lot easier when I wasn't trying to play no Magic at all and just Melee shit. Now with a few incantations you can make fights so much easier, and the sword arts are just OP.
Once you get your first respec and a good faith weapon definitely recommend giving it a try. So the play style is still sword and board but supplemented with faith weapon arts + incants.
