Sounds pretty awesome. I've read that ng+ stacks up to seven, increasing difficulty each time. So, yeah, I guess the first run is like, chump's difficulty if you think about it.

I think first run is only chump difficulty if you're smart about gear choices and make sure to upgrade your stuff when possible. I would have had a horrible time in Anor Londo and places after it if I had stuck to the Drake Sword instead of spending some souls to make a better weapon, for instance.

Nah, that's around the level and stats everyone is at for Gwyn, he just happens to be one of the easiest bosses in the game, especially if you can parry well

Ah, well, that's kind of disappointing. I hate it when the end boss of a game is easier than most of the other bosses. I didn't bother at all with parrying because I'm shit at it, I use a greatshield and smack people with it instead of parrying, just blocked his hits and took the fire damage that pushed through the shield. It probably helped that I had 40 Endurance and the Cloranthy Ring to have beastly Stamina for frequent blocking. :hehe
