The Dark Souls 3 Demonstration
Presided byAtsuo Yoshimura, Global Head of Marketing for Namco Japan, the demonstration followed a different build than the one available for play to both press and public. The first thing that we all noted was what seemed to be a “Mana Bar”, a blue colored demons-souls-like bar in between your health and stamina. No spells were cast and it was never used, so we asked “What is this”, and the answer… “This is a WIP and may be a place holder”
Now onto the demo, in simple, bullet-point form!
Arts are unique to a weapon held in right hand or both hands. equip a kite round shield or wield two handed to perform arts. Some arts can be followed up with a special attack
Parries are exclusive to small shields in left hand. Follow up with RB for riposte critical
I found a small grave/shrine and have the option to offer flame. It tells me the epitaph: “Grave of a nameless retainer. Raised his sword for the Lord of Cinder”
