thats where the fun of this game is its supposed to be a very difficult game

I never said I thought the game was too hard, I was merely explaining how I felt it was very frustrating not to have a map. I am not asking for a modern yellow-arrow-pointing-to-the-next-point-of-interest, but maybe some sort of Diablo 2-ish map where it only shows stuff you have previously explored.
That being said, I will most likely give the game another go tomorrow when it's not 4 in the morning, but still.

To me it feels like that basicly the game is telling me to go fuck myself for not playing the previous souls-games. When making my character, I had to google what the different stats did, because the game sure as hell didn't tell me. You can check it after you've entered the game, but I found no button whatsoever that showed me more information than just: "This option starts with 2 more Arcane". Well, thanks I guess.

makes it too ez

See, this is where I'll get shit for saying it, but I feel that too much difficulty is artificial and just forced upon you. Sure, the game is "supposed" to be hard, but some of the choices made are just retarded in my eyes.

games shit anyways

a map doesnt really make it easier monsters are still hard and if you could open the map and run at the same time that would cause equa lamount of deaths to exploring trying to find your way

i agree it could use a map lol

Don't get me wrong, I am not saying that they should make it any less difficult, the gameplay is fine, it's just that there are things surrounding the gameplay that makes it harder than it has to be (that's what I mean by artificially harder), like the lack of explanation in the beginning, the lack of sense of progression, where you feel you need to go etc.

I did quite possibly rage abit too hard since I played it for 2-3 hours at 1 in the morning to about 4 and I have now had about 3 hours of sleep and I am at work, but after a 2-3 hour nap when I get home, I'm planning on giving the game another go.

I think what will help me the most is not playing the game at 2am

Also, the Cleric Beast being on a bridge with 2 Werewolves. Are those werewolves 2x the first mob you encountered in the starting area? (The one I beat with my fists because I had no idea that you could get your weapons from talking to the helpful tips-ghosts on the ground in the Hunter's Rest).
If so, I think that's exactly where I called it quits, I got to the bridge, killed the 2 werewolves and then I died to something and went to bed.

Just going to restart the game when I get home tho, I had no idea how to read the stats on weapons and such so I picked the axe, which really doesn't suit my playstyle at all (Fast 1handers ftw).

Sadly, I am REALLY bad at remembering / memorizing the way I came from and stuff, but I guess I'll get better. I also need to learn not to just bring up the axe and cleave 2-3 mobs at the same time (does not always end so well, apparently).
