Anyone that has ever stepped into Shacknews' Chatty forum knows that our community loves Dark Souls, perhaps more than any other game to come along in the last decade. So it's no wonder that March 11's release of Dark Souls II will go down as a momentous occasion for Chatty. And as you might come to expect, several Chatty members took to Twitch to stream through their first time playing through the newest iteration of the series. Today, Shacknews celebrates the best of Chatty's foray into From Software's lateset with an All-Dark Souls II edition of Chatty Twitch Highlights.

Here's a compilation of some of the best Shacknews Twitch highlights for the week of March 15, 2014.


Dark Souls 2

Three of our most dedicated Chatty streamers run through the world of Dark Souls 2. First up is jeffmoeller playing through Things Betwixt:

That's followed up by The Squid Division walking through the first two hours, intro and all. He even managed to avoid dying... for the most part:

Ozzie has been playing video games since picking up his first NES controller at age 5. He has been into games ever since, only briefly stepping away during his college years. But he was pulled back in after spending years in QA circles for both THQ and Activision, mostly spending time helping to push forward the Guitar Hero series at its peak. Ozzie has become a big fan of platformers, puzzle games, shooters, and RPGs, just to name a few genres, but he’s also a huge sucker for anything with a good, compelling narrative behind it. Because what are video games if you can't enjoy a good story with a fresh Cherry Coke?

        Yeah, we played it from Tuesday morning all the way through to Saturday morning or so. Damn fun stuff, even if we weren't trying to barrel-through it all to beat it.

        It's too bad the component connection from the PS3 makes for such a dark (heh) image. I have the brightness/gamma maxed in-game too. The HDMI was pretty much perfect if not set to full range, as expected. (I was using component, Grimmadog was using HDMI)
