lestat, I´m considering playing the game, you seem to be quite experienced with it, so tell me..is it possible to beat the game without farming for souls?...I ask because I visited the Dark Souls thread on NeoGaf and many people were asking for advice on the best places to farm for souls and things like that.
So...is it possible but unlikely?...or possible and likely if you get good at the game? |
It's very possible and likely to finish the game without farming anything, either souls or shards, from what has been my experience so far. I can't guarantee nothing for the later game bosses as I've not reached them, but you can tackle every area, as long as you're equipped for it, with soul levels far below mine.
To be completely honest, I haven't farmed for souls so far, as I've not required it and I've seen people with much lower level than I am, more advanced in the game. Some parts are frustanting, but they would be anyway even if you were at higher level, because the game depends a lot on the equipment you're carrying (much like Demon's Souls).
So yeah, it's pretty doable to beat the game (from my experience so far) without any kind of farming, especially if you get progressively better in it.

i pretty much Sign this. As for me, i did grind 10 soullevels over my playthrough so far, but the difference wasnt noticeable at all. if i do 120 damage with a hit, or 125 - the boss doesnt care. =)
@topic: i have to stop playing for today, but Dooood!.. the Archives. awesome Location. ^_^ (And this was the first time an enemy with a bow was a threat, he shot down 80% of health with one arrow.. xD)

So, like lestat said, equipment over grinding.
