the best souls game
Good game but worst Souls game
the biggest phantom range in any souls game
a shitty game
Fun game. Bit frustrating if its your first one in the series. Don't listen to Yea Forums, play it, and formulate your own opinion.
dying due to lava, poison, falling and poison
The worst souls game next to Sekiro
A game far better than ds3 and a little bit worse than ds1.
Oggi boggi spaghetti
This is true. DS3 was the worst.
A fun game
This.
A lot of good ideas like power stance ruined by a few mechanics like soul memory.
A shit game, might as well just refund it now.
You have to be incredibly autistic to care about obscure shit like soul memory. DS3fags are cancer.
A fucking pain in the ass desu
actually fun and balanced magic
the best fuck you AOE miracle in the series
dual wielding, aka fun
the most fun fist weapon in vidya history
lance weapon that is not a joke
Primo: sei in ritardo. Molto in ritardo. Questo significa quasi 0 multiplaying, ed é un peccato perché il multiplaying era l'unica cosa che salvava questo obbrobrio.
Secondo: questo é di gran lunga il peggior Dark Souls, l'unico gioco From che mi ha fatto cagare più di Dark Souls 2 é Sekiro.
Terzo: se però é il primo gioco della From che provi (escluso magari Sekiro) potrebbe piacerti.
Buona fortuna.

Also what the fuck happened to Italian cinema, you guys made kino movies in the past?
a bumpy ride but ultimately a worthwhile adventure

Long ass game with shit bosses

Da quanto tempo non trovavo un italiano su Yea Forums!
O su Yea Forums in generale!
Pensa che proprio ieri io invece ho comprato Dark Souls 3 Deluxe Edition su steam!
Cmq, riguardo il gioco: non ascoltare cosa pensano gli altri, giocatelo da solo x bene e fatti una tua opinione, altrimenti che senso avrebbe giocarci?
Well, it seems like I won't get an unanimous opinion. I'll just play it and see
I'll answer in english because they might ban me for not doing it but
1. I don't care about the multiplayer
2. Being the worst Souls game doesn't mean it's a bad game in general
3. I already played DaS1 and Bloodborne and I liked both for different reasons
too bad miracle builds got fucked
I want to do a magic run for reasons, gimme some spells to shoot for
Just use different characters for pvp, it’s not a big deal. Besides online is probably dead by now.
A pile of shit
you will like it more than DS1.
People that defend ds1 only do so because it was the first they played
I liked DaS1 more than Bloodborne even if I played the latter first
In contrast with the fact that people who defend DS2 only do so because they're retarded
>formulate your own opinion
Someone who creates this kind of thread is obviously incapable of that.
Tranny janny detected
bon giorno rigazzo, mama mia, comere spaghetti madmoseile, grzce grace
The unanimous opinion is Ds2 is dogshit so naturally shitposters and contrarians are going to stink up every souls thread with their (you)bait and garbage opinions
But you already know this, Mr,Shitposter
I defend it because out of the 3 i played ds2 the most by far.
It has the most bosses of any ds games, best ng+ (new weapons, armour, boss mechanics. boss enounters), it has awesome DLC's, it has more weapons in general, more viable builds, best hub area
It's not like I made this thread to use other people's opinions as my own, I'm not that retarded to listen to everything you guys say here (because it's wrong most of the time). I asked because I just want to hear opinions of other people
dark souls 2 feels worse to play than 1 immediately when you boot it up, swinging your weapon feels incredibly floaty and the dodging is wonky
it doesn't help that they put that godawful cyclops enemy in the starting area, and the first couple of boss fights are fucking awful, the pursuer in particular is notorious for the shit hitboxes
i think ds2 is the best in the series. but i played all the games recently and am not blinded by nostalgia so what do i know
Having to care about your soul memory for PVP is pretty homosexual when every other souls game had you only caring about your soul level.

How did you manage to mess up 7 words out of the 10 you wrote?
not with those bosses it isn't
aaah firenze, scumbiglioni gabagool
Instant regret
Why is the dlc still this fucking expensive. I dont want to buy this edition and have to start again.
>1. I don't care about the multiplayer
That's the one good part of DaS2
>gabagool
i understand that. but to me dark souls is best when exploring environments, not when fighting bosses
I've played the games since Demon's Souls US release and they all have their own quirks and strengths.
DS2 is certainly a worthy Souls game with a lot of variety
It has a really rough start but as long as you're not shit, it's no problem and it probably has the most initial freedom of any of the games save DeS. I find myself coming back to it the most.
>those bosses
>that art direction
>those animations
>that nonsensical world
Dark Souls 2 but with rearranged enemy placement that feels like an amateur romhack.
SotFS was a mistake
I'm not saying DS2 is better than 1 objectively, but I found it subjectively more comfy, and thus like it more.
don't know about SotFs, played DaS2 + DLCs
heard that Sotfs is harder
...
Vanilla dark souls 2 + mods >>> SotFS
SotFS nerfed some places and turned other areas into as user said, an amateur romhack.
Iron Keep is a good example, you take five steps into the front door and like half the enemies instantly aggro you along with a NPC invasion.
BB > DeS = DS1 > Sekiro > DS3 > DS2
but honestly they're all pretty close
Should I buy the original?
>original DaS2 build looking joocy as fuck
>gets downgraded to N64-tier graphics at the last minute
>year later
>oh yeah here's this re-release we promise to have fixed a lot of the issues with the original and overhaul the engine
>still didn't reimplement the original lighting
>still looks like shit
>entire game is a shit-tier arrange mode
>no option to select whether you want the arrange mode enabled or not
>also served to split up the PC fanbased since vanilla and SOTFS are not cross-compatible
>also can't use your old saves, because fuck you
I still ended up buying the fucking thing later on simply because it was cheaper to buy SOTFS than it was to buy the individual DLCs for the original version of DaS2. But I'm still fucking mad I had to trudge through all that arrange mode bullshit. I have plenty of complaints about DaS2's level design, but instead of fixing the flaws they somehow made it even worse with SOTFS.
And it just feels so amatuersh. Like they decided to just randomly spawn enemies in new places with no rhyme or reason. Don't even get me started on Heide's Tower of Flame.
I loved this game when I initially played it. I was way before I went on here and I was surprised to know it was so hated
SotFS does have some new content albeit content I don't enjoy myself. But more than that I think it has a 64-bit support and some other fixed issues, iirc the original DS2 release had completely fucked up controller support.
>Don't even get me started on Heide's Tower of Flame.
It just wasn't the true Souls experience without the mandatory "shoot shitty bridge wyvern with arrows for five minutes" portion
Boredom. Put some funny music on and the game becomes an 8/10 though. Maybe get drunk or high too.
Yea Forums is contrarian trash dude, they are convinced shitting on ds2 makes them sound more hardcore
meanwhile the real world general consensus is that DS2 is a great game, because it is
Sunken King>Old Iron King>Ivory King
>damn, this dragon is not taking much damage from my arrows, maybe it'll be a boss or significant fight later on where I can slap it with my big dick sword
>mfw hit the end of the game without that happening
>1. I don't care about the multiplayer
You might want to start caring about coop. Not gonna tell you why, just keep it in the back of your mind

The comfiest hub area out of all the souls series. Fucking love Majula.
nice deflection
Sunken King had the best level design but the worst scenery, bosses and gimmicks
Had a lot of fun with the PSS though
The Dark Souls of sequels.
>b-but it's comfy
Majula is the hands-down worst hub in the series. It's flat, bland, and uninteresting. There's nothing going on with it.
And also going back to the DeS-style system of needing to warp back to your hub for upgrades/leveling/etc was objectively shit. DaS1's system of allowing you to do most of your housekeeping at any bonfire was great because it saved time and kept the pace going. In DaS2 and 3 you're constantly interrupting what you're doing and waiting through an unnecessary extra 2 loading screens for zero benefit whatsoever.
Just remember its "LOL DAS2" and walk into rooms slowly to handle different enemy mobs.
>Best character build creation
>Best PvP
>Has a shit ton of content
>Motherfucking PURSUERS GREAT BLADE
>Magic is kinda alright this time around
You can use a guide for this one too, if you treat the game like you have no respect for it and try to break it it actually turns into the not the "best" dark souls game, but the funnest one. Hitboxes aren't that bad as some of the webms on here make it out to be, retards just don't know how collision data works.
t. got chased down and murdered by piglets
You probably should wait for return to drangelic, the problem with DS2 is that the SM fucks the co-op-pvp.
Don't even remind me about SM. 5 years later and I'm still fucking mad. And the """"fix"""" of that shitty soul-eating ring was just salt on the wound as well.
At least DaS3 finally got this aspect right and had matchmaking be a function of SL and weapon upgrade level. Shame it completely shat the bed on multiplayer in a bunch of other ways that made it the worst in the series though. But hey, at least in that game I didn't need to tediously grind in the arena for CREOs.
I loved the lances holy fuck. Shit game but less boring than ds3.
best in the series, but you got the rom hack.
dark souls 1 is a lot more forgiving and allows running past all the content.
dark souls 3 is a copy of that but it looks nicer.
livella ADP fino a 99 o 105 agilità
online c'è ancora gente
divertiti
adp/agility were such a shit-tier design choice. I want to skullfuck whoever did their implementation.
Yeah I hate Majula. I hate how shitty it looks, I hate the theme music, I hate how yellow it is, I hate the NPCs, I hate the ambient sound effects, and most of all I hate how you have to go back there constantly. FUCK MAJULA
Yeah i wish someone could fix it modding or making custom servers, DS2 co-op and pvp are the best of the series i honestly never got in ds3 multiplayer scene.
I’m rolling a new character. What class and gift should I pick?
Explorer and Petrified Something. Be the item hoarder
A game that looks like garbage, plays like garbage, and has shit bosses. But because you can play whatever meme spec you like it's somehow not shit.
So it's complete shit
I’m on it
My favorite Souls game. By the time three released I was a little too burnt out to get into it. Enjoy user!
DaS1's PVP is still my all-around favorite. DaS2's would've been my favorite if it weren't ruined by problems like Soul Memory and the lack of full eye orbs, forcing everyone to grind in the arenas or just cheatengine them in, which I'm pretty certain is what everyone ended up doing anyway
Don't even bother with DaS3's PVP. DaS3 was designed more or less with bloodborne combat mechancs shoehorned into the framework of a souls game, and it just doesn't work and results in the PVE gameplay being R1 spamming and mashing the roll button because dodging is basically unlimited and zero-consequence. Now that isn't so bad on its own in PVE, except the same mechanics carry over to PVP, and so all invasions end up being tedious as fuck because opponents can just endlessly dodge with impunity. roll roll roll, R1, R1, R1. It's all so tiresome, and actually winning a fight in DaS3 usually requires your opponent to fuck up severely or take so long that it's like pulling teeth and just not fun.
heh...
I don't know why but I died laughing at this post. Thanks user.
The worst Souls game. Shit bosses, broken staggering system that makes it extremely easy to stun lock bosses if you go strength, horrible enemy placement in areas that looks like they're copied and pasted, forgettable characters, shitty level design, shit lore and a retarded combat stance system that lets you pretty much break the game from beginning to end
are you really going to try to use metacritic as some sort of evidence to your statement? The same site that gave GTAIV a fucking 98? The only decent aspect of DS2 was the PvP when compared against DS1
The worst Souls game.
But still a fairly good game on its own.
really ugly, bland environments, random bosses that don't have a justification for existing, more bad bosses than decent bosses, very very few good bosses, twinked out pvp lagstabbers, bad hitboxes, iframes tied to adaptability, and overall lower gameplay quality.
the worst gfx
the worst anumations
the worst hitboxes
the 90% humanoids enemies
the 90% of bosses are utter trash
the worst level desing
the worst world design
the game that isn't good until DLCs
but I guess pvp was fun a few years ago and dual wielding is cool.
Seriously, that's all, the game is shit compared to any other Souls game.
The SMT of Dark Souls
but the environments in DS2 are so ugly and bad
Jank and fun. Fun depends somewhat on how well you tolerate jank.
Gank squads. PvE gank squads.
it's by and large the best souls game, and one of the best rpgs in the last decade. yes the graphics can be shit, and yes animations can be shit. but nobody complained about witcher 3 for those same issues
dark souls 1 is so severely overrated at this point
The most divisive souls game. Just play it and you'll find out if you like it or not. At least look up how adaptability works before you play though, that filtered a fuck ton of people from being able to enjoy the game
it's ok when 3 does it
the only truly fun game in the series. and i've played each for hundreds and hundreds of hours
which version of Dark Souls I do I buy on steam?
I have a good PC
Yea Forums is such a pathetic board holy shit, you retards just can't stop bitching about everything can you?
I haven't played 3 yet and now I don't even want to. but then again
>trusting Yea Forums
Worst fights in the series, but the DLC fights are pretty good, even the "forced co-op" bosses are better than the vanilla game.
I lost my motivation at the iron keep, should I continue?
people like to say otherwise, but 3 genuinely has more "surprise" ambushes and ganks than 2 by a large margin
>he 100%ed das2
I'm so sorry user
Iron Keep is a real rough patch, especially if you're bad at Smelter (never understood this)
It gets much much better once you get through it
Well the whole thing with the Dark Souls remaster is that it does so little that it's not worth it if you already have the original. But if you don't already have it, you might as well get the remaster. The game itself is more or less identical, but with a larger playerbase meaning more activity.
why? it's genuinely an incredible game. and i'd be the first to point out all of its actual flaws. i also 100%ed vanilla das2 on xbox 360 too, and das1
autism for games is like food seasoning, it makes everything better.
it's not like you have to go out of your way to 100% any of the souls games. you literally just play them once and then again in ng+
>heard that Sotfs is harder
To get the dull ember you had to Souls-jump in Lavaland Castle. Now it’s picked up immediately after Pursuer via the eagles.
>bad at Smelter (never understood this)
It was the boss that made me realize what ADP did. Then I was able to dodge his hits more accurately, and the hits that went through I could now sip then dodge in time.
Fun, but not the best souls game.
It goes from worst to best -
>Dark Souls
>Dark Souls III - Dark Souls II
>Bloodborne
dark souls 3 is not better than anything
you bought it Oggi?
Are you an Orc what the hell
Better than DS2
