Yeah the game is more difficult IMO than DS but the trophies seem slight easier since there's not a luck dependence and world tedency requirements.

Yeah, once I farm humanities to finish off my pyromancy, do I just join another covenant (I guess I'll join darkmoon) or do I need to go to Oswalt to leave my convenant?

@lestat Yeah I meant that if you miss the geckos they respawn (under most circumstances) instead of getting only 1 respawn per boss right which was pretty lame because half the time I didn't know what geckos were until it was too late.

You can join other covenants directly, but that will consider you a betrayer of your previous covenant and will get you some sin points (Darkmoon can hunt people with sin points). It's always best to leave via Oswald, unless you don't care about your sin level (plus, some covenant givers will become hostile/indifferent to you, and you can only get back to the covenant by paying an extremely hefty absolution price = SL x 2000). 

I missed most of the geckos first times, and some were downright impossible to get at all, like the chamber filled of them in 2-2. Unless you had God's Wrath, it was impossible to get them all, and even with it, some of them managed to escape.
