Can anyone help or does anyone know if there's anything I can do to fix it?

Hi, I'm having a problem that I was hoping someone could help with. After obtaining the Boots of Springheel Jak during the Thieves Guild questline I used the Sanguine quest to exploit the permanent effects glitch which adds +50 bonus to acrobatics even when the item itself is not equipped but now I can't get my acrobatics skill to level normally. Even though my real acrobatics skill is only 50 even the master acrobatics trainer can't train me any higher. After exploiting the glitch I handed the boots back to the Gray Fox to advance the questline. Is there any way to fix this? I'm playing on PS3 and I don't know how to use console commands. Please help! Thanks! 

1. Porco Grosso

The first real reference to Ghibli I noticed, and probably the most obvious so far, was the boss inside Hamelin castle: Porco Grosso. This was obviously taken from the name of the main character of Studio Ghiblis 1992 film: Porco Rosso.

2. My Neighbor Tomotoro

You can find this reference once you gain access to the Solosseum Series in the Temple Of Trials. Once the Solomon Series has begun the main room of the Temple Of Trials will be filled with familiar trainers from all over the world, including a Tomte named My Neighbor Tomotoro. As Im sure all you Ghibli fans can guess, this is a reference to Studio Ghiblis 1988 film My Neighbor Totoro.

3. Hey Lets Go!

Finally the third reference is one found a little off the beaten path, in the form of a side quest not found on the board at Swift Solutions. If you travel to a little island off the western coast of the Sutherlands called Hermits Shell and enter the small cave within the islands little cove you will encounter a group of familiars living inside whom you can talk to via the Natures Tongue spell and who all have special requests for you. Once you have completed all of their requests speak to the Toko (who already slightly resembles Totoro) at the back of the cave and he will present you with a Name Tag for your trouble, which allows you to rename familiars in the Familiar Retreat. If you speak to him again after receiving the Name Tag he will say Toko! Toko-ko-to. Toko. Toko-tokooo! (Nice to see you, friend! Hey, lets go walking one day. You and me. That would make me happy as can be!) Anyone whos seen the original English dub of Totoro by Fox will remember the theme song Hey Lets Go! Perhaps you may even remember the part Toko is referring to: Hey, lets go! Hay, lets go! Im happy as can be! Lets go walking you and me! Ready, set, come on lets go!

I was really happy to discover this last easter egg and I havent seen anyone else talk about it like the first two. Im sorry about the picture quality for this one, I dont have a capture card and I wasnt able to find a picture online so I had to take a picture of my TV screen with my camera lol. Anyway I still havent finished the game but Ill certainly keep my eyes open for more references and post them here if I find any!

Lot's of people are having problems getting there copies. Many haven't been shipped and a lot of people have had their pre-order canceled for no reason even if they ordered during the first run. Anyone having trouble with this should report Digital River as well as Namco Bandai to the Better Business Bureau:

http://www.bbb.org/sanjose/business-reviews/computers-hardware-software-and-services/namco-bandai-games-america-in-santa-clara-ca-244771

This kind of negligence should not be allowed to continue. This has been a continuous issue with Digital River and Namco Bandai is fully aware of past issues (remember Dark Souls collector's edition) but has chosen to do nothing about it. Its obvious that they are not concerned about the consumers. I hope that everyone will speak up to force them to take some action.

Thanks, it actually was at the spawn spot. Ugh...this seems like it happens a lot =/ I was fighting black phantom Ostrava and I accidentally knocked him off the bridge so now I can't get the mausoleum key. This time it wasn't at the spawn point...any suggestions?

Robothound

Considering, BP Ostrava is not the one who gives you the mausoleum key, him jumping off the edge really shouldn't affect you that much. You unfortunately have indeed missed the opportunity to get the mausoleum key. I know this seeing who i beat the game about 9 times.

Hmm well this is my first playthrough and I didn't realize that he would die if I left him unattended and since I can't find him anywhere I guess that's what happened so I guess either way I'm screwed. Is there any other way I can get it?

[QUOTE="da_chub"]dark souls is the best game ive ever played. just had to say it :)almossbb

thats good to know, but the TC was talking about demons souls lol.

man i still have to beat demons souls, i just dont have time to play anymore. and yes i think it may be gone forever, so you may have to get it from somewhere else man.

Is there any other place to get it?

Some times if you reload the area the item will be in the spawn spot of the NPC that was killed. It will only be there on the next load of the area and gone for good after that.wooooode

Hey, I need some help, I just fought black phantom Executioner Miralda in pure black but she fell down into the pit and died. When I was trying to get theGuillotine Axe I also fell and died. Is there any way I can still pick up her weapon or is it gone forever? Thanks!

he is referring to the usual walkthrough which has you killing yourself to go dark tendency and then kill bosses to return to light tendency to get all the events in 1 playthrough.

strangestguy

But if you were able to do both events and take advantage of both black and white then you wouldn't be missing anything right? So you all think that this will permanently effect world tendency?

Hey, I'm sure most of you have heard that Atlus is doing a world tendency event for the 2nd anniversary of Demon's Souls' release in the US. From October 6-17 world tendancy was pure white and from then until October 31st it will be pure black. I think this is a great event and also very helpful for getting items/events that can only be found in either pure white or pure black world tendancy. It's also great for the month of October! I can't wait to play Demon's Souls pure black on Halloween lol if that's not scary I don't know what is! =P Is everyone else as excited as I am or are you too caught up in Dark Soul's to pay attention to its predecessor?

Also, does anyone know how this will effect individual world tendancy? I still don't quite understand how playing online effects offline world tendancy. Can someone please explain it to me? I already looked it up on the wiki but I'm still a bit confused, thanks!
