try practice rolling some, less stamina drain, +iframes 
(can be easier said than done depending on the enemy, moveset, situation, +sometimes blocking just works best/easier)

The lore for Dark Souls is beautiful to me but the game was so brutal that I just couldnāt play it. I wasnāt freaked out too much by it that I couldnāt play it, oh no, just that it was too difficult and I just kept dying passed a certain point. I asked my friend why there wasnāt an option in the menu for simple cheat codes and he just laughed. To this day, I have not beaten the first or second game (third one is easier so I have done it by a miracle).
Iām not ashamed to admit I would have gladly accepted some health help from the game. I was invested in the story, mang, not the game using me as a punching bag.

Didnāt you ever see any player summon signs? they could have helped with the bosses.
failing that NPC characters help you even in DS1. DS2ās whole NPCs storylines are based on using them as summons to defeat certain bosses.
Jolly cooperation is advised, become grossly incandescent etc.

where = were (but shouldnāt that be āisā?)

I didnāt get very far in 1 or 2, so nope, didnāt notice them, but I did notice the summon signs in 3 and tried to use them, but the connection was very faulty for me so I didnāt use them as much as I wanted to. Though the game itself was rather easy compared to the last two so thereās that.

i know the difference between were and where 
itās a regular typo i make among other
canāt speak for the tense, sense iām referring to something āin the pastā, even tho whatās being conveyed could be transferred to the future 
-iām not an english or grammar expert enough to make that distinction to say so , but i donāt really care about it that much either

y, the thing is, if it were in the past, it would be āwasā because itās singular; the only reason to use āwereā would be if it was a conditional sentence (so not because of the tense actually) or if it was plural, Iām pretty sure it should be āisā, because the game still āisā fantastic in the present
ok Iāll stop now; pretty sure iām annoying at least some ppl right now

Another game I really want to ramble about (feel free to ask about it and Iāll try my best to reply (though itāll be tomorrow 'cause I gotta go hehe)!):
I bought it in early access and I was (am) immediately impressed with it. The developer just kept releasing update after update, and not only that, the dev actually asked customers what they wanted and implemented suggestions. I personally asked for something and they put it in there. They care about this game, and I just love it so much and I honestly did not expect it.
You take on the role of this awesome little dwarf looking to unite his race and build a place (settlement!) for them above ground, retaking it back from enemies like goblins and other heinous ilk. It is a side scroller and you can customize your dwarfās gear and skills, but probably the most interesting aspect I thought was how you travel the world map;
(could be a large image! Leaving it as a link)
It eats up resources to travel your map, which you can search for yourself on the map and have your settlers search for through the management window. There are puzzles (that can be really tough lol), NPCs (with quests), epic treasures, looting system and more and actual lore inspired by games like Dwarf Fortress which you can learn and collect throughout the game (wonāt spoil it).
The graphics arenāt super complicated like you see with a lot of new sprite based games (like Kingdom: New Lands or Sheltered), but they fall in that quirky range that I myself really love and reminds me of those older console days.

(thatās my dwarf from a while ago. Heās called Sigi and heās a badass)
The music is also really cool, really reminds me of Mount & Blade and gets me attached to the world when Iām playing. It is harder to describe audio to you guys, so Iāll leave it there and skip to the fact that the devs recently pushed out free DLC for it because they are just that awesome.
I was hesitated when I first bought it myself, because there were hardly any reviews, it was early access, $8 and I only had $20 to spend and I was a new Steam goer myself, but the moment I stepped into the gameās world, I was hooked. Sigi and I went out and saved so many dwarves, and weāre still going as we keep getting content updates and wait for more.
If you read the reviews on the siteā¦you can see that people love this game and if you give it a shot, you will understand why!

So Iām thinking about purchasing this small indie title I just found in my Steam discovery queueā¦itās called Hollow Knight, anyone heard of it? 
Okay, joking aside, I went through 3 discovery queues for free cards today and all 3 were jam packed (Iām talking like 90%+) with FPS games of which I do not like, I do not pay for, and Iāve only enjoyed a couple over the years and they were not very standard FPS FPSs. So yeah, apparently me installing Quake Champions during E3 free promo last week and playing a couple games of it here and there to get a feel for where theyāre taking the franchiseā¦that triggered Valve algorithms into thinking that now, after 3 decades of non-FPS gaming, I suddenly love FPSs. #TheyTried

Quite frankly, I think their system is broken or something; one of the games in my discovery queue literally said that it was being suggested to me because ābecause it is has positive steam reviews,ā a second one ābecause it is popular,ā a third one ājust to see if you might be interested;ā srsly? like, wtf Valve!
and they need proofreaders too: one says, ābecause it is has a high metacritic scoreā

I just found my least favorite place in Hollow KnightāRoyal Waterwaysā¦ Just got destroyed twice by the same set of enemies, and lost all of my Geoā¦ 
I am going to leave this area alone for a while, go explore elsewhereā¦ Plus those enemies there make the stupidest soundsā¦ Me no like!

uhh dat place has some nice shinies 
but yea some of the monsters are a bit āiāll kill youā'ish
depending on āwhat youāve gotā of upgrades etc, it might potentially be worth the effort to push through and explore, -but, huge caveat, as i learned, the very very hard way, if not having āsomeā/certain upgrades, it can be an utter and total right pain in the buttā¦ omg i fād up so bad the first time i got there āearlyā lol,
fortunately a couple of the bosses there were less cumbersome than the otherwise general area, and like mentioned some neat rewards here and thereā¦ but oh boyā¦ iād probably at least suggest a nail upgrade, and making sure you can jump āhigh enoughā, to get back up āoutā again lol

Yep, my discovery queue feels completely broken at the moment too - Iām getting a load of RPGMaker tat and anime stuff. At least it makes getting through them fast.
The Queenās Gardens trumped that for me big timeā¦I actually didnāt find the Waterways too bad but I lost a load of Geo in the gardens. Do as Gnuffi suggests and upgrade your nail a little and then youāll stand a much better chance.

hehe yea, the dmg output/difference with some upgrades, spells or charms is insane! 
like, i even began to start slacking so much because i just tore through some enemies, so once i got to another higher/harder area where things then evened back out a bit, i got so many stupid deaths from just being lazy or cocky with my big, huge, hard and twisted nail

I am going to go explore a bit more and see if I can find out what you mean by thatā¦ 
I found two bossesā¦ both killed meā¦ but I actually got killed by the regular creatures on the floor.
I think I need some better upgradesā¦
I have yet to go to the Gardensā¦ I will be sure to revisit this area later.
Currently I have 3 bosses I canāt get pastā¦ lolā¦ Two here and one in the crystal peakā¦ But given how open the world is, I am sure I can just keep going elsewhere, and come back to them later.
I have upgraded it onceā¦ I should have just gone back out and bank my geo when discovering a new area, but I pressed forward because it was too far to the nearest stag stationā¦ Fortunately mining Geo is a lot easier now compared to before, when they dropped 2-3 in the beginning. (I lost about 2000 this time.) Only have about 1000 in the bank I thinkā¦
I want some more nice shinies!
I wonder how long itās going to take for me to actually explore this world in its entiretyā¦
Actually speaking of further exploration, I had abandoned DeepNest after the first time I went there, maybe itās time to revisitā¦
