Was a lot of fun. really enjoyed the play through but I think I may have shot myself in the foot a bit by over exploring. I mean I REALLY explored. Looked up a few things here and there during the Ranni quest line but for the most part just happened upon most things. Problem with doing that is now I have literally zero desire to do NG+. I think the older games more linear fashion really lent itself to that mechanic more. I thought about making a sorcery character but honestly doing so much of that over seems tedious and if I consult a guide it seems pointless to do it since I don't like PVP at all.
Funny thing is I ended up with a build that was dex faith uses rivers of blood and the white mask with briar stuff all by just playing randomly and thought I was actually doing well just to find its one of the cheapest and most hated builds in the game everyone hates lol.
I am rolling around the after game a bit bit since I did so much Im finding there just isn't really anything left. I checked the guides, ran through getting some more talismans but the ones I missed aren't really better than what I have. There isn't really any armor or weps I could seemingly get without another play through and TBH I'm just going to youtube the other endings.
Anyway, great game but not much replay value to me. Anyone else feel this way? Any alternate opinions?
