I used to hate and I mean HATE Blighttown. Especially the 360's "4 FPS" version. But once you realize that they put torches next to the ladders it's not too terrible. I will say that the intended way to go through it (from The Depths) is a lot harder than going in the back way (giggity). And thankfully those toxic dart guys don't respawn when you kill them either.

Oh Wolfy, hard disagree with you here. I thought DKS3 was the hardest of them all. I was able to get to the final castle after lots and lots of dying (and I do mean lots). I beat the first DKS1 a few times, I beat DKS2, but I don't know what it is but it's like your guy in DKS3 moves like the one in Bloodborne only you don't have the HP regain on counterattack mechanic. It seems like every enemy is way too aggressive and take a ton of hits to kill. And I even had really good weapons (Spiked Mace +9 / Dorthys' Gnawing spell, etc). But the thing about From games is what's impossible for one guy is easy for the next. The Watchers I think I died more than 30 times total easily. The Dancer took me a couple days. Eff those guys. But Pontiff Sulihan or w/e he is I beat on the second try, and that boss is supposed to be super difficult for many.

I played and finished 3 a few times right when it launched, really enjoyed it. My first build was insane though, int based, but due to the way weapons worked in the game and the setup I had, I still did extreme damage with my melee attacks, while having maxed out spell damage.

The spells made many parts of the game WAY easier, and certainly helped with many of the boss fights. I never summoned anything to help me, nor did I ever block anything.

The watchers were just fun for me, though I know they were a breaking point for many. I used the pillars with spells to make short work of the Dancer as well. Even if I did have a hard time with a boss fight in 3, it was usually easy to just sprint right back and fight it again without fighting anything along the way. That really is what made it easier to me (that and the spell system being like 1 again and spells being so powerful etc).

It's so easy (for me at least) I even did a shortbow only run (literally only used the shortbow..think I had to use a torch or something once or twice) for all my fights/boss fights etc lol.

Could also be just how much I had played those types of games by the time 3 came out, I went into it with really good skills already, but yeah, for me it's the easiest by far.
