The other issue is, when you quit the game, you get sent back to the menu screen with the "press start" prompt. You press start and before you can even quit the game, it has to check to see if it can connect to the servers. Of course, I just force quit the game, but I don't want to do that, and of course shouldn't have to. I havnt been playing the game for a while and i decided to pick it back up again after realizing i had never beaten it. i had no problems previously with riposteing and backstabbing but when i loaded in i realized i couldn't do it anymore. at first i thought i was just out of practice but after exploring it for awhile i found no matrter where i stood i coulnt backstab and even when i stagger

backstab tech: if your shield is raised, you cannot backstab enemies like in dark souls 3. Riposte has timing, so I would keep practicing until you get it. It took my eyes some adjustment to get it just right when I first booted up the Remaster.

It does look kind of weird. but I think most of the other animations in the game are better than most of what is in Dark Souls 1 and 3. It's a minor example but the prostration gesture has that much more fluid look to it in Dark Souls 2. And, of course there are the unique backstab and riposte animations. 13.
Yes, but if it didn't work like that, getting a backstab would be heavily dependent on connection. Dark Souls 3 doesn't need even more ways of punishing aggression, and no game wants mechanics that sometimes just flat out don't work when properly executed.
Emad-520. • 7 yr. ago. Get close to an enemy wait till your aim turns red then press triangle. If it didn't work go to your skills and activate it if it's not active but keep in mind you can't backstab all enemies. DatSwampTurtle. • 7 yr. ago.
For a character that was facing 0, I found that I could backstab them if I was at +60 or -60 degrees. It was tricky manipulating the angles precisely, but I was able to test 60.00 at one point, which worked, while 60.02 failed. Both of these screenshots are examples of 59.something, meaning they are very close to the steepest angle that will RZdRad.
