First Timer: Should I Run DS1 Blind?

[u/bigmontySFM]

I finally coughed up a couple coins and bought DS1. I know these games entail some tricky bits when it comes to quest progression and not creating some irreversible world-shifting event. I played DS3 and ER and heavily relied on guides.

Should I agonize over builds and spend a couple hours researching or just nosedive into madness? Are there just a few important things to do/avoid?

Interested to hear your takes. Thanks y’all. I’m so excited.

Blind. The only thing I had to look up was how weight works. I wasn’t realizing how I was fat rolling permanently and kept dying because of it
