Let's talk about this game.
Dark Souls 2
I'm playing it right now and it pisses me off.
Why is there poison fucking everywhere?
The whole game is filled with poisoned areas.
One boss fight is even in a room filled with poison.
Fucking poison. I hate it.
It's shit
It was pretty shit no cap
dude just burn the metal windmill lmao
I like it.
It was the weakest souls game, but I still enjoyed it.
You want the image of the windmill elevator, the FotFG background or the Shaded Ruins?
>The whole game is filled with poisoned areas.
earthen peak
black gulch
gutter
aaand that's pretty much it?
It was my first Souls Game, I played it with M+KB at first lol. It was actually reasonably playable with some rebinding.
I liked how viable every class was compared to DS3. I wanted to be a faith warrior, swinging lightning bolts so bad in DS3 but they've "balanced" it to be utterly garbage.
DS1 is still king tho.
Bloodborne>>>Sekiro>>>>DaS3>>DaS1>>>>>>>DaS2
Best in the series 2>DemonSouls>3>Sekiro>1>Bloodborne
hes exaggerating but thats a testament to the souls dog shit game design
not to say it isnt satisfying to a degree, feels good to prevail when odds arent in your favor
I'll take all three well done and a hitbox webm on the rocks, chop chop fella

i'd say they are still better than blighttown or the fucking endless swamps in ds3
the things about dark souls 3 being better than 1 is the fact that ds3 multiplayer is bad. its not not good, its bad.
seems like everytime i invade its 2 or 3 on 1. its pretty fun to wait for additional invaders but i mean thats a long wait and invaders also get too much estus so it becomes a roll fest
dark souls 1 doesnt present this problem, which makes its multiplayer better than 3 but 3 obviously looks and feels better offline
Honestly idgaf about multiplayer, for my DaS3 was just the most fun to play
Fine, let's talk about it. Let's talk about the best game mechanic ever conceived.
For just 50 souls more you can have unlimited refills for your reused poop jar.
Thank you.
It felt tiresome the whole way through.
>he hates a game sooo much he talks about it daily and has footage of it saved all over his computer
RENT FREE!
Best pvp and best fashion.
Prove me wrong
Would you like to talk about the game with us?
It's not a good game. Dark Souls 3 is better but still deeply flawed and more heavily button mashy than 1 or 2. I think a lot of the children here like 3 the most because it was their first, or they played 2 first and 3 was better so they think it's the best.
Dark Souls 3 is like a Greatest Hits album from a band that had one good album (Dark Souls) with a few good singles (a couple of areas in Dark Souls 2) so the Greatest Hits album is just their first album and a couple of random singles and a live performance or two thrown together. Self-referential and masturbatory to a fault considering how little there really is to reference.
I can see why people hated it but personally I love it.
I also don't get the criticism that they "ran out of ideas" it's the most imaginative feeling of the 3.
lucky you, i only want to play souls games so i can invade niggas and dice them like steak. another shit aspect is you cant invade an area once the boss has been defeated so thats just awful
i think dark souls 2 had the best multiplayer especially considering all the fun i had in the arena.
sometimes i get a real silent hill vibe playing souls, not sure why or if anyone else does
Any pc bros got a low sm mule?
is this the perfect list?
well thats the best take i done ever read on souls in general but ngl im high asf
theres something about aesthetic that makes me prefer something like ds3 over ds or ds2 or even demons
yeah gameplay is like a thing but god fucking damn does the boreal valley look fucking good and i get hard as fuck everytime i ember. so im willing to compromise for inferior gameplay
which isnt such a big deal because even at its worst any souls game is fucking great. ludex gundyr is without a doubt my favorite souls boss especially his alternate boss fight
When are they going to remaster Demon's Souls REEEE
>I think a lot of the children here like 3 the most because it was their first, or they played 2 first and 3 was better so they think it's the best.
Dark Souls 1 was the first Souls game I played, but it's honestly my least favorite of the trilogy. I like 2 the most, followed by 3. Bloodborne is still better than all of them. The only game in the series Dark Souls 1 has beat is Demon's Souls in my opinion.
Being in the Rat covenant in the Doors of Pharros with max bonfire intensity was the most fun I ever had in that game.
>i only want to play souls games so i can invade niggas and dice them like steak
Yet you complain about 'ganks'? Pathetic scrub. Get good.
you're not wrong faggot
Why do faggots complain about soul memory, which has barely any impact on the game, but will defend absolute shit like world tendency because muh Lost Soul Arts of Demon's Souls?

Everything else.
I'm going to get far up my ass and say psychology. It just "feels" wrong. You can have 4 million in soul memory and buy 10k souls worth of arrows or whatever, and it still feels like you're fucking yourself over because your matchmaking climbs higher without you actually getting stronger.
Remember, people perceive losses a lot heavier than winnings - we are not inherently rational beings, after all.
I prefer DS3
Thanks for beta testing my game, boys.
>no multiplayer
>no fashion
>no weapon or build variety
enjoy your inferior product
Turns out, all that stuff was unnecessary with a well-designed main character.
why is there still shitboxes in this game?
>no multiplayer
kek implying this is a bad thing, Demon's, BB and DkS1 are so good because they weren't focusing so heavily on PVP bullshit.
It's a poor craftsman who blames his tools.

Nigga go get Barbie Horse Adventures if you want to play dress up

I don't know whether or not I prefer it to DS1 desu.
>multiple enemy boss fights
Hey buddy, how's it goin
>Throne cunts and the Dickrider Duo
what, i had more problem with the smelter demon than those bosses. just learn to positioning and target prioritization and it's easy as shit as they're slow and eager to signal.
Pretty good, how about you?
>>least linear
Not true at all. Having multiple hallways from one point doesn't make it the least linear. That title is held by DaS1.
>>most armour and weapon count
True, but how well does that translate to the viability count?
>>best PvP*
True
>>diverse meta
True
>>less rolling and R1 spam
If this is in context of PvP, that is true, but that doesn't make it any less better. In DaS3 you can easily roll catch roll spammers and parry R1 spammers. Adapt and learn.
like 90% of those guys aren't actively trying to attack you.
DaS1 feels less linear than it is, because of it's interconnectedness and the fact that you can't warp before getting the bonfire, but it's fairly linear as fuck. The only difference in the first half that you can make is which bell to ring first, and after getting the lordvessel it's just three long and pretty corridors to the boss souls.
Pvpfag opinions do not count. It's like judging the best sonic game by whether or not it has chao garden.
Same for me, but there are some parts I loath.
But the the game has some nice concepts.
It feels really satisfying to just go in there with a big dick UGS and R1 away at all these fags.
And you can fight the ruin sentinels one after the other if you're not retarded. What's your point?
Hahaha imagine believing this
>can't warp before getting the bonfire
I mean getting the lordvessel, what the fuck is wrong with me
>just learn to positioning and target prioritization
I'm not saying their harder. I'm saying they're less fun. For soloing the Thrones W&D in particular, like you say, it's position and choosing which one to whittle down. But that means that like 80% of the fight is just kiting them until their attacks synch up in a way that gives you an opening, It's just frustrating and you constantly feel like you're on the back foot.
At least you can skip those guys.
why can't Yea Forums just admit its an irredeemable piece of shit that is infuriating to play
git gud
>least linear
Dark Souls II somehow managed to be this good thing to be "meh". Yes, you can go up to 4 different paths at the first half of the game, but it kinda sucks since there isn't much to do other than grab items and armor for your le epic PvP build.
I platinumed the game you faggot. The only difference is that my time doing it was gay as fuck whereas I had a blast with every other soulsborne game (including sekiro)
Don't lie on the internet user
cope.
no

The scraping spear sends his regards.
Game design wise I think it was kind of below the others. The i frames system are bullshit for instance, and the level design is not comparable to other souls.
Story wise I love it so much. The DLCs are great and they give so much more depth to the story.
