Holy SOUL
>>750725238-less
>>750725238ds3 is the worst one out of the 3 games, and i acknowledge the fact that entire parts of ds1 are unfinished
'MEMBER?
>>750725238Irithyll is the beautiful exception in that grayscale colored rollslop
>make a DS2 thread>some fag says the game is ugly>make a DS3 thread>some fag says the game is ugly>make a DS1 thread>no one calls it uglydo DS1fags really think their game is beautiful? I know they are deluded and just play the first nonstop because its the easiest, but cmon
Dark Souls 2 GOODDark Souls 3 BAD
>>750725238Ds3 is a much better game than 1 or 2
>series gets better over timeWow shocker
>>750730243Armors in DS3 have little difference between each other, mostly cosmetic?
This area had a great bosshttps://youtu.be/9DWI9B9QHD4?si=SaEecG_CTtsky83Z
>>750725238This is literally all DS3 has.
>>750731549what, you don't like swamps??
>>750730181this but unironicallyinfinite stamina and overpowered light weapons make it the worst souls
>>750730358Dark Souls 3 armor gets you no benefit except giving you more hyperarmor when attacking with big weapons, but you still get stunlocked to death.Only in 1 & 2 you get benefits from wearing heavier armor by getting poise and not getting stunlocked to death.
>>750731732>it's bad because it's optimized for fast paced rollsloppingThat's literally the best playstyle in Souls. What else are do you wanna do, stand in one place and play the block/parry rhythm game?
>>750731991The gamplay of ds3 and bloodborne and especiall ER is TOO fast though, its hard to even play the new games bossfights they move so fast
>>750731991I don't really get what people want from Souls games when it comes to their gameplay>DS1You can use a shield to great effect (Greatshield of Artorias for example) but you need to keep track of your stamina and take care when facing elemental attacks, and a skilled player eventually gets to the point where a shield is not only unnecessary but suboptimal because it drains stamina>DS2Takes a while until you get a 100% phys shield and it has very slow stamina regen plus you have poor control because of 8 direction movement instead of 360 movement that the other games have and the game actively discourages dodging early game because of the adp system >DS3Increases stamina regen and forgoes adp because the game is built with the idea in mind that you will be roll dodging things and you'll be challenged with needing to time them properly instead of just side stepping everything or dodging behind them for every attackDo you guys want parryslop instead of rollslop? You have to pick a poison.>>750732449That's up to personal opinion, it's true that they're much faster than the older games, and I do agree to an extent that it feels like they're trying to one-up previous difficulty because they have the idea that harder = better but you do have to admit that if a souls game came out and it was noticeably easier people would complain about it.
>>750733213>Do you guys want parryslop instead of rollslop? You have to pick a poison.having to use multiple modes of not-dying at once reliably? Sekiro ironically gets closest to this while DaS3 is the furthest
>>750733291In Sekiro you parry 95% of the time in your defenses, the rest is for telegraphed red attacks where you either jump, run away or mikiri, with a couple interactions you can do with shinobi tools. In the souls games you can run away, side step, block, or in ER's case crouch and jump in niche cases. But the fact stands that for the majority of your gameplay for both the souls games and Sekiro that you're parrying a lot or dodging a lot.
>>750725785no, but ds2 is truly soulless
NOT SOUL. DS3 SPAMS LE EPIC FUCKING MEMES "REMEMBER THAT TIME BEFORE? XDDD" AND IS DOGSHIT LINEAR AND ALSO SCUMFCKING USING CONSTANT MAGGOTESQUE CLICHED GARBAGEFUCK THIS GAY SHIT AND KYS OP FOR BEING SOLD BY ITALSO>LE EPIC SUN GUILD IS NOW.... LE NEUTRAL XD
>>750733753Ds2 did it first
>>750730139/v/ is just retarded as fuck and taking thinking any opinion here is is good is also retarded
>>750734230I DIDNT LIKE IT WHEN FUCKING ORNSTEIN POPPED UP. DEFINITELY FELT A PANG OF DREAD SEEING HIM
>>7507332132 has the fastest stamina regen
>>750734230Everyone seems to forget this for some reason
>>750731549I dont agree with thatI think Dark Souls 3 has some of the best level design in the series, although it just looks really fucking brown and sometimes ugly.Its a lot more like Bloodborne which I guess is fitting since it came out a year before, and thats one of the reasons why I can appreciate it more than Elden Ring because its easier to play and sink your time into unlike Elden Ring which requires like a hundred fucking hours to beat. Archdragon Peak, entirety of lothrics castle and Irithyll, ring city, ariandel, and even locations people dont like (swamps and undead settlement) are very consistent and satisfying to run through.
Yuria… my beloved. Lead me astray
>>750725238>turns into yet another swamp in the later half of the areawhy does miyazaki love swamps so fucking much
I feel like I'm the only one who thinks Irithyll is the worst part of DS3, like visually is nice, but just thinking about playing in Irithyll has stopped me multiple times from even trying a second playthrough.
>>750737994You can block the irithyll knights attacks with a shield
After replaying DS3 I think the game is pretty good, though this area does mark when the game becomes way better because almost everything before this, even the cathedral which is a good level, is kinda whatever. Still, basic enemy encounters throughout the whole thing aren't that good and mobbing could be better. The bosses are pretty fun in the second half, especially with the DLC. Ashes is actually a good level with a fantastic boss at the end, Dreg Heap and Ringed City are meh but the three main bosses are very good. Also the katana parry skill is very fun, and the frames on it are surprisingly good.
>>750733753>REMEMBER THAT TIME BEFORE?the only overt one is Anor Londo, why are you spazzing out?
