Please, please spell out words. I'm not sure how new you are here, but some members are grammar national socialists, and from what i remember they don't show any mercy.

OT: Last time i fought the moonlight butterfly it never used the beam. and i was able to dodge the shotgun attack a few times.

also, is it worth going down the great tree in blighttown?

If you're okay with putting up with black basilisks, the mushroom people, winding pathways and the chance to fall to your death, yes. There's around 10 crystal lizards there and if you're quick you can come out with plenty of materials. Ash lake is lacking in a few areas, but there's a decent PVP covenant there, so if you're looking for PVP, go for it.

ok so
I have no armor
My club is about 3 hits from becoming as useful as a stick
I'm in the painted world
I have no idea how to get out

If you have the courtyard shortcut open, go up the stairs to the very left of the door and go down the ladder. There's skeleton wheels in there, but they could be avoided long enough to pull the lever to open the door in the circular tower. At this point, you can either head straight along the bridge to the boss room, or explore the annex if you've survived in the sewer area long enough to pick up the key. Exploring the Annex nets you decent loot.

If you don't have the courtyard open, proceed through the level until you reach the circular tower. Going up gets you a decent item for pvp, while going around and down leads you to a fog gate. Traverse the fog gate and instantly run to the chapel to the left. From here, the phalanx can't get you, and you can easily dispatch them assuming you have a spear. Hitting their shields automatically sends you into a parried state, so be careful about that. Alternatively, you can duck through the chapel and run to the gate at the opposite end of the courtyard if you want to avoid the Phalanx. With the shortcut opened up, rest at the bonfire and proceed to the sewer area.

Super Mario Sunshine. While the game was frustrating, it was fun to play.

You mean like Wish cave from Blue Rescue team? It was long, but it was gradually easy.
Besides, you can increase your belly size and make yourself able to go through the whole dungeon without needing to eat.

I never got that far in Blue Rescue team...

And the loss of money/items? I take it you mean if you're defeated in a dungeon?

Yes, I am not sorry for being clearer.

Was that not the Zero Isle? I think it's Zero Isle West.

Ah. Destiny tower does the same thing as Zero Isle West, only that you can't bring any of your team in.

but luck isn't challenging!
i think the zero isle is challenging, sure, but luck isnt.

How about being allowed nothing but yourself and being set at level one with no items?

not sure because having hunger is basically another health bar you have to look over that deteriorates over time
i usually stock up on at least 2 big apples and i'd pick up more apples along the way, all avoiding the sticky trap mind you

Try Destiny tower in EoS then. You're not allowed to bring things in. You have to hope you get lucky enough to get apple drops.

Yaaaay, I hated hunger. Money/item loss was kinda interesting, and I'll miss the starter choices.

Hunger gave the game more of a challenge in some of the later dungeons though.

I'm more excited for the new Mystery Dungeon game than I am for X and Y. Besides competitive battling, I find the main games a little dry.

They almost removed hunger (it is only there for the last three dungeons), cut down the playable starters (From 20 or so to 5), and nearly removed money/item loss altogether (unless you attack a Kecleon.)

You need to drop them on the ground and click on them with any weapon/tool equipped.

I played the stuff out of the sims 2. I went out and bought the sims 3 collectors edition, but before I could play more than a few hours, my sister forgeted up the disk. :c

If you still have the code you could register that on Origin and download a digital copy.

Honest Hearts was a pretty fun experience because I couldn't grab all of my extreme high tier stuff as you have a limit of 100 pounds equipment.

Can't you bypass that limit with Strong back though?

I might buy it sometime. I still have Explorers of Time and I really don't feel like playing that over again.

Other than adding a few new chapters, the game only improves on a few mechanics that weren't in Time and Darkness.
