Yeah, I needed to google how the symbol looked because I never read the name, lol.

Does anyone know how to use the lift contraption in the building to the far right before the Dragonslayer Armour fog wall? It says contraption does not move and these messages are saying "Down".
Edit: Thanks for the answers.

Farm them by helping with boss fights. Yhorm is an easy one to farm if you're that far
You unlock it later iirc
It's a shortcut that you open later on. The Down messages are probably trying to trick you into killing yourself

Yeah, I know I get 'em from co-op, but I assumed the person I was quoting wanted a regular enemy to farm.
This is one of my major gribs with Souls games/series in general.
Many quests are just so easy to miss/fuck up that it is actually out of pure LUCK if you are able to complete them most of the times.
So yeah I reached the point where I said "fuck this, this game is like begging you to read the frigging guide".

Man how close some of the bonfires in l
castle are is pretty hilarious but i appreciate it.

This is not true. I didn't meet him
in the kitchen either, saved him from his cell afterwards, and still got the reward item doing so.

He might be considering the cutscene with Siegward to be the end of the questline, and if you missed the kitchen, I don't think you get it, nor do you get Siegward's armor.

If you go outside and look where it leads to you can probably figure out where the lift is
Nah, the end of the questline is at
Yorhm, and you receive his armor at the end.
edit: sorry, double post

Oh god, tell me about it. Prime examples for me.
talking to that covenant lady in cathedral of the deep. Join it with zero description of what it is. Dont wear the symbol. Get back to firelink. The npc that pretty much only ever said " we have nothing to talk about" says we are now enemies...... Ok sure lady.
Give nun tome, she says she would rather not as its forbidden but if you insist? Doesn't give the option to say "oh ok i will keep it then". Good bye nun lady i guess.

Games riddled with this crap. Its odd because in bloodborne it was no where near as bad. Covenant people talked to you first and you normally have speak options to back out of things.

What is the item in
boss chamber? After beating him I was making my way over to pick it up and an ending cuts cent triggers and took me out. Can I get it back?

From what I've seen, it's treated as a +5.
I'm playing blind apart from the NPC quest lines. So much accidentals you need at least to go to NG++++++ to sort of get all those quests. Nah.
It should spawn in the corner of the room with the bonfire if you missed it.
The best place seems to be farming the two knights in the area just before
Abyss Watchers.

Ugh I keep dying because my character randomly decides to kick instead of slash/stab. That is one thing I wish they would change. The kick seems say too sensitive with the command prompts from the controller.
I felt bummed because I wanted to buy his shit. You can still get his ashes though.
Thanks! Seems a bit weird considering the damage output of some of them, but it's nice to know.
Really like that aspect about the games.
Like I said, Covenants this time around, are bad and unimaginative.
Dark Souls II Covenants were the best in my honest opinion.
Yeah, poor bastard. I miss him too

Grass Crest.
Cut content from the game and faces of NPCs (spoilers ahoy!)

There's some really nice weapons and armor there, hopefully they bring some of them on the dlcs.

I would agree with this 5 years ago. When i had the free time i loved looong games with things that can be wildly different each time. These days i just cant handle anything single player for much more than 20ish hours.
Its not a bad thing its just im having a strange time accepting these sort of games are just simply to long for me to enjoy these days. Force of habit in playing them for so many years is hard to break i guess. I mean, i could stop now and even if i never play it again, i enjoyed what i played so it shouldnt be an issue i guess.

Bonfire placement feels supergenerous in this game in general. Could have done a few stretches without the extra bonfire, or maybe make them hidden so atleast you gotta do some effort in finding them/can miss them.

I found something you might like mid game ish
a ring that gives you normal appearance despite being hollow.
That or any helm that covers you face.

So far, the only place that hasn't felt like there are too many bonfires and that the bonfires are too close together has been C

It's a random chance. I ended up with 8 or something
I really like the game, but it's not my favorite. It's a perfection of the previous installments, but without the magic and freshness of the puzzle that was DS1.
Instead of trying out new things with enemies and bosses, they've just looked at previous games and improved upon them. And I have only had a hard time with the Dancer and the Dark Graves boss. All the other ones I beat on second try, a few on a fifth. (I still have about 4 bosses to go).
I still enjoy being in a dark souls world so much, but at the end of this game I'm experiencing the same thing as with Bloodborne; the experience is getting worn out. It's the DLC that will probably freshen things up a bit, just like in Bloodborne, but DS3 is a fine ass Dark Souls experience, but that fresh magic is gone, and it's good FROM is going to try out what they learned from this in new games.

The only place i feel bonfires were done really well is in
Cathederal of the deep
2 bonfires and tons of short cuts back to them. After that i was just continuenly disapointed no other area was really like this again.

Invaders are so bad. I would say I am not a very good players and still defeat 8/10 even with their scummy tactics bringing mobs to the battle, running away and healing.
CotD is weird because it has one at the very beginning and then another after a flight of stairs. Makes that previous bonfire totally pointless to the point where I forgot about it, and was about to commend the CotD for having only one.
Overall the game has a unbalance placement of bonfires. Some places you won't get one for a long ass stretch and others you'll get one right after another.
