Dark Souls 2 Released on PC!

[McGrupp]

I had quite a bit of experience on PS3, so I did this on my first PC playthrough. I find it nearly impossible to melee every boss on New Game and beyond, since your armor scaling hardly matters. Also, since you can't "rest" to attune any spells, you're relegated to melee (first playthough) unless you attune before starting a NG. I did a pure strength build using mace +10, and some claymore. If you're going to do it on NG, definitely go caster, way easier. Main concerns are weapon repair and not dying due to extensively long corpse recoveries (where most of the 12 hours went)!!!
