I’m going in with just a g-string and a stick

[AMAC]

this is going to be my first ever souls game, super pumped to be immersed in this beautiful world

0:38 Vagabond
1:12 Warrior
1:36 Hero
2:07 Bandit
2:40 Astrologer
3:09 Prophet
3:46 Samurai
4:25 Prisoner
4:58 Confessor
5:22 Wretch

[MinersLoveGames]

Prophet, Prisoner, or Confessor are definitely looking to be my choices for my first playthrough. I've always liked being able to compensate my martial combat with spells, and felt that locking myself into a strictly magic or strictly melee build deprived me of a lot of content.

The prisoner looks like Griffith from the Berserk series, when the band of the hawks rescued him from prison. He also used a rapier. That can't be coincidence. Previous installments also were heavily inspired by Berserk.

I'm going with my favourite build from dark souls 3... the Gandalf build.
Left hand staff. Right hand sword.
Shout " you shall not pass " at the bosses.

[dgeo]

can't wait to see someone playthrough as the base wretch for the whole game

Vagabond: Tank
Warrior: Speedster
Hero: Berserker
Bandit: Assassin
Astrologer: Mage
Prophet: Cleric
Samurai: Physical jack of all trades
Prisoner: Duelist
Confessor: Magical jack of all trades
Wretch: Lethal joke character

[crybaby]

The Prisoner aka Griffith or The Wretch seems like the right choice if you want it harder at the start.

[Conquerors_Haki]

Definitely going with the samurai class, the legacy of Jin Sakai continues

[t_fold]

Been loving the more recent IGN videos. You can tell the people doing the newer reviews truly love video games and that reference to the Bioshock Infinite Boys of Silence let me know this guy knows his stuff haha.

[dracoxx]

confessor is my #1 choice my 2nd choice is the warrior those double swords with fast offensive power is lovely

[revelation]

Tbh Samurai is looking like my choice for the classic dex katana build but bandit also sounds pretty interesting. Plus Samurai gets bonus points for starting with the uchigatana, I’m glad it’s returning. Although “faith based assassin” build for the confessor sounds tempting as hell

Definitely Hero or Confessor, Love the strenght builds but Confessor looks like such a fun class fantasy

[Artorias-iltr]

There is no other choice for me but the wretch..love going into soul games with nothing. Makes all the upgrades and leveling feel like they have greater meaning.

[Gloamy]

Confessor for me! Melee/magic build has been awesome so far. Fire and restoration magic is so useful. Also both the Twinblade and Demounter have by far been best in class - those along with the Tortoise shield of course 😌

[Neofilmcritic]

Confessor for me, love the idea of having an all around magic and decent physical

[Gofr]

Started with Astrologer. Going into my usual heavy int build. May try to make it a melee/int hybrid later on, but for now it'll be a pure caster.

[heroinheroine]

Vagabond was my 2nd build, was happy with the Confesser but might go back to him eventually… the Wretch actually seems like the best to choose to be honest, might have to make a 3rd build later hahaha

[Dairykota]

Truth be told, the Bandit class has specifically caught my eye as of now. High initial arcane, sweet.
