Who wants to see me play Dark Souls II Beta?!

On 10/14/2013 at 10:16 AM by Chris Yarger

Well it finally came, the Dark Souls II Beta was here and at my disposal for a couple of hours at least. It was a network test, so I kind of understand why they put a time restriction on it; it helps to gather everyone online at one time to thoroughly test the network.

Anyway, it was a great experience overall! I don't want to ruin too much though, but luckily for you all I remembered to hook up my Capture Card and gather some footage (Six videos in all actually). So here are the first two that I've managed to edit and upload!

Real quick; sorry if there are any typo's and crap. I'm home today and I'm using my phone, and it's a bitch to scroll around and edit. Also, I'll be posting more and more stuff as the week progresses, such as reactions, impressions, and the other 4 videos!

Enjoy!!!!

Hang on a second... Is that first NPC the Dirty Woman from Demon's Souls? If so that's fucking awesome! I know Patches is in both Demon's Souls and Dark Souls, so it's possible!

I honestly don't know, but I was initially leaning towards that idea. I've also been noticing a lot of other Demon's Souls references as well (Black Phantoms are back, herbs, and things 'changed' the more I died) within Dark Souls 2

I was watching the film Snow White and The Huntsman the other day and the scene with the Troll made me think of Dark Souls. They try and cross this beat up stone bridge in the dark forest when the Troll appears. The sceen looks just like some gameplay I saw recently. snowwhitetroll

YES! I'm all caught up on your last vidoes. I need something to watch over Octoberween weekend when I'm too tired of my halloween games, halloween movies and books I've read over and over.
