    Game » consists of 14 releases. Released Sep 22, 2011

    A quasi-sequel to From Software's action-RPG Demon's Souls, set in a new universe while retaining most of the basic gameplay and the high level of challenge. It features a less-linear world, a new checkpoint system in the form of bonfires, and the unique Humanity system.

    Game breaking glitch?

    I am pretty sure there are a few transient curses in the ruins found off dead bodies. Or you could just get cursed for real. I think the frogs in the depths do that and just get a curse removal from the guy in the tower by the first bell. Once you can kill the ghosts, they might drop a weapon that can hurt them even when you are not cursed.

    You are fine. Go get cursed by the frogs and you can damage ghosts. You can farm transient curses from them or once in a while they will drop a blade that can be used on ghosts.

    I'm pretty sure magic works too? I might be wrong though, I know you have to be cursed to fight them though.

    BUT just because you have to be cursed, doesn't mean you have to take the health penalty.

    You also have to be cursed to damage them with magic.

    DONT get cursed, there is a way to fix this! It happened to me (I hit her on accident since shes so ugly :D) I had to do the forest soul farming to get 100k souls but it made it so i could fix all my sins. The belltower merchant will Clean your slate if you pay him 100k souls which means anyone you attacked (but not killed) or betrayed (Covenant) will like you again. The merchant would swear at me all day but now she loves me again. New Londo is easy to clear once you have the dmg to kill the ghosts easily and they do drop the transiant curses pretty regularly but it is always nice to have someone who will sell them to you when you need them. She also sells humanity which is great since I need a ton for the Chaos Covenant.

    You can also just wait until later in the game when you get access to cursed weapons.

    You're right, the cost for absolution is your soul level x2000 souls, so if you're soul level 54, it would cost 108,000 souls.
