No invasions?

How do it feel to be a... BITCH?

Not every game needs to be a dark souls clone.

My advice is for you to obtain technique.

I like the idea but the execution is piss poor

Oh yes it does

no
it's always the same fucking builds too
"""variety"""

It brings out the cowards who are too retarded to play traditional fighting games and instead becomes a chore getting rid of you tards when I just want to chill with bros

but I only have fun when I'm invaded.

Dilate

Seething

It's ok to admit you gank user

Which one counters seething? I think it's cope right?

Cope

Ive literally never touched pvp in souls games before I'll play a fighting game if I want my fix

The very first time I was invaded it was in Blight Town and a fog wall to the Valley of Drakes appeared right in front of my face. The guy who invaded had endgame gear and stats which allowed him to kill me in one shot without even needing to riposte. Wee.

When it's fair, yes
7 out of 10 Invaders I get are overpowered twinks or cheat engine users, I only feel bad for these types of people.

Just play offline wtf

I honestly dont know anymore.

Yikes

Go cry on reddit about how you hate invasions so much. Git gud faggot.

>Just play offline
Shitter here. I enjoy the messages other people leave in the game so I'd rather play online

As for invasions, it's simply lazy work from the devs who didnt bother creating some arenas for people to queue up and fight/rank against other people that enjoy PVP

Personally when I'm playing a single-player game, I like to be comfy and don't want random nolifers invading my single-player experience

This desu

ign.com/articles/2019/06/11/dark-souls-and-bloodborne-creator-says-elden-ring-is-a-vast-open-world-souls-like-game-a-e3-2019

4gamer.net/games/422/G042247/20181213067/

The same people who leaked the game have already confirmed multiplayer

I'd still buy it but I'd need to readjust my expectations for it if it ends up being single player only.
I want Elden Ring to be a bigger better Dark Souls with all its bells and whistles improved and expanded, including the multiplayer elements which were a huge part of the franchise. At least for me.

Ty user & nice trips

Multiplayer in Souls is shit. Invasions add nothing but annoyance, the emotes break the immersion of the worlfd you're in and if you summon for boss fights you're a pussy

Deal w/ it

Well in most games you can't be invaded when hollow anyway, so I don't see your problem.

>Deal w/ it
Deal with what? Your irrelevant piece of shit opinions? Lmao how about you deal with the fact that FROM is still going to put multiplayer and emotes into this game.

Exactly, can't even stomach playing sekiro. It's so fucking bad man. Even with invasions that game would be a straight abortion.

I dab on miyazaki's grave.

And it's still gonna be shit

Name another game in which people can "invade" your single-player experience

You can play unembered in 3 if you really don't want invasions.
There's also that ring in 2 to remain hollow at -25% hp only, max.

Where does it say that it has mutliplayer?

The idea of invasions is Souls is fantastic, with you being part a certain covenant that attacks others that do harm to your covenant/defend it, but it's broken and always has been.

DS1/3/BB all great multiplayer and community, big reason that series stayed so big is the online community for 1 so god knows why they would ditch it, just fix invasions and have George write some good lore for the covenants, it makes more sense here being an actual open world RPG rather than any souls game.

PvP is the only reason people put hundreds of hours into these games. Look at Sekiro, most people didn't even put 100 hours in because there's nothing to do after 1 or 2 playthroughs.

Just using BB's backstab system instead of Souls one would make invasions better all around. Still, in 3 people rarely backstab fish anyway so it's almost perfect.

In times of desperation I would use a ember in a boss fight, kill the boss and then after lightning the bonfire I'd go Toast in the middle of the area and go eat a sandwich or take a shower waiting for someone to kill me

Bye bitch.

Why?
It's a feature that the majority of players is fond of, and Miyazaki has always said that he thinks of Souls as a multiplayer experience anyway. You should be glad that From even allows you to play online without getting invaded all the time.

So, explain to me why Elden Ring having optional invasions would be worse when you're not going to play it that way anyway and you're not missing out on anything either.

Lol u mad?

>DS1/3/BB all great multiplayer and community
SotFS has a bigger multiplayer playerbase than DS1, DSR and BB though. Why ignore it? DS2 PvP is the one thing parroting cuckolds can't object to.

3 and BB had shit PvP, 1 and 2 where the best.

Nah. Happy. I don't want your kin infesting my game.
Pull the white one and stay bitchmade.

Play offline faggot or gid gud

Jokes on you I'll still play the game just in offline mode

You really mad aren't ya? Was it the part where I said you're a pussy if you summon for bosses? Don't tell me you summon for bosses
laughing_girls.jpg

I played from launch until the release of SotFS and the PvP sucked. Everyone used Santier's Spear for a good amount of time until it got nerfed, and then after that they either spammed running thrusts because the hitbox was fucking enormous or spammed that one curved sword that had a huge parry window. Was SotFS really any different?

user people always used the most broken weapon available in these games until it gets patched. Meta happens everywhere.
That's not even an argument.

Invasions are the best way of reminding you to "GO FUCK YOURSELF." They should be inherently unfair and rage inducing for the one getting invaded. Twinking, griefing people by destroying their equipment, or using cheat engine to kill their NPCs was some of the most fun I've ever had in a game. There's no greater feeling than knowing that you fucked up some guy's save that he'd sunk hours into (kinda like knocking over a sandcastle):

I'm now the only person in my circle who wants to play Dark Souls anymore because of people like you

You're on Yea Forums. Everyone hacks.

Based

People praise griefing in Dark Souls, but in other games, it's frowned upon. Why?

Your friends seem like the types who refused to git gud. Why do you hang out with them?

Are you five years old? Your mom is calling you.

Because Dark Souls has a lot of features to grief, like spells that permanently destroyed equipment that would only spawn once in a play-through or destroy the enemies soft humanity. I don't get any benefit from these spells, but my enemy certainly feels it.

They were literally only good in Demons Souls. Once they tried pandering to the PvP faggots, they became fucking awful. If you play Souls games for competitive PvP, you're a fucking shitter and need to play something else.

PvP fags will not be missed. I do hope they return in some form, though.

Because memes. Dark Souls PVP players love the memes.

>Being so jaded that you only have fun by ruining everyone else’s

game after game from are pooping on you invaders

Because only casuals and 1st timers are susceptible to high tier griefing and is essentially hazing.

Then I will continue to hack their games.

>still wanting the same mechanics from Demon's Soul

The novelty wore off many years ago. Putting invasions, pvp, "covenants"... Fucking why. Just do another thing. It's like you all want the game to feel stale, and then you are surprised it IS stale when it comes out

Because I am a decent human being?

Invasions in des were also better because they were more accessible. You practically couldn’t miss getting a black eye orb early into the game. So you’d get invaded by all sorts of people. Some were good, some were shit. In dark souls, you had to kill 4K early and join the darkwraiths. So the only people invading were people who went out of their way to get the ability to do it. And the only people invading at low levels were twinks.

Invasions are what made fromsoftware what it is today. If you ignore this fact you're a fucking moron.

You're on the wrong website then.

Clearly.

Griefing is mostly frowned upon in PvE games, though. If you choose to play a game where you can have somebody pop up in your world and try to kill you, then popping up in somebody’s world to try and kill them isn’t really griefing.

I'm pretty sure the only "leak" that mentioned gameplay details was on Yea Forums and was also wrong.

What the fuck does that have to do with anything, and no it wasn't only that exactly.
You can still recognize the Souls series success while moving on to other things. I swear you fags want the same fucking warmed up soup.
Chaining a studio down forcing them to insert the same mechanics EVERY GAME is the death of creativity. But I guess you are too dumb to get that.

>people that didn't play DeS and early DaS before normalfags ruined the community
>they'll never know the feeling of getting that invasion message pop up and spending the next twenty minutes playing cat and mouse with a random stranger wearing terrifying looking shit you've never seen before, slow walking around like an edgy cunt for maximum effect
>they didn't end their first invasion with no healing items left, backed into a corner by this implacable specter of death and getting summarily executed with the lifehunt scythe
>they just got mad and bitched on Yea Forums instead of thinking "that will be me before long"

Are you fucking retarded? Invasions didn't do jackshit, stop pretending.

Youre an actual fucking retard. Sekiro is already dead and sold less than half what ds3 did on pc alone. Wanna know why its already fucking dead? It has ZERO replayability. Ds3 is still sitting around 7k players daily on steam alone and thats explicity due to the fact you can pvp and make builds to pvp more. Kill yourself you fucking braindead ape.

>griefing
>in dark souls

There is literally nothing you can lose by invaders that you cannot get back with minimal effort.

On one hand I'm upset because I can't fag up people's world's than on the other I'm happy because those e-celebs can go eat shit.

For me it was the opposite. I got the game largely for the invasions and as soon as I got a black eye stone started invading 2-2 with my fat rolling knight. First person I invaded saw me and started walking towards me with the a scary ass looking sword (I later learned it was Northern Regalia). I turned and ran down the tunnel with all miners and tried to hide behind a corner to ambush the guy. He knew I was there and perfectly rolled through my ambush attempt, then killed me in 2 hits.

>game quality is measured based on how many people play day to day, for the longest time possible

I'm done. Get fucked monkey.

Also
>if the next game sells a bit less than the previous game is a total failure

One digit IQ arguments, and totally irrelevant regarding game design, originality and quality. Basically suck my fat cock.

It keeps their game relevant and makes sure their games are played way after support has been ended.
Retard.

seething

Oof

ok lol leave
