    First time I went down into Siofra I was very low level and just started the game really. Those sniper bastards could one-shot me from across the map. At least at Anor Londo you’re pretty high level usually, but they fixed that by making you walk the plank while shooting at you.

      I swear they specifically made Siofra one of the most beautiful parts of the entire game specifically so that you’d be distracted when the sniper fire started

        Its the Fromsoft way. We hate them for all the bullshit, yet love them for their dedication to truly push us to our limits.

        It’s something I think FROM really excel at, contriving set-piece moments that feel natural given the game’s mechanics. There is a little part of my brain permanently dedicated to galloping through the trees next to the Siofra before Torrent took a Dweller to the fucking dome and chucked me to the floor

        Another Crab’s Treasure might scratch that itch for you? Be warned that it is bastard hard despite how it looks - first couple of bosses are okay, but it quickly ramps up to be much more unforgiving than From’s output.
