Is this trying to prove anything? It looks significantly better than Drangleic.

Sucks like the rest of the game. This game is so fucking trash but I still enjoy it and I have no idea why.
Josiah Allen
>This game is so fucking trash but I still enjoy it and I have no idea why.
This but unironically.
Carson Cox
It was okay
Not nearly as bad as some of the areas in 2 but still felt kind of barren and slapped together. Basically just some randomly assembled hallways and rooms, not much enemy variety, no real sense of the overall structure of the castle from how you progress through it.
The gimmick to open doors were kinda neat and the boss was one of the better ones in the game.
Chase Young
Dark Souls 2 is still a good game, it's just objectively the worst Souls game.
Christian Cooper
It looks really good from the outside, especially when you first see it looming over you in the rain. It actually gave me a little hope for the game, maybe its like reverse-Dark Souls 1, where the first half is bad and the second half is good but nope, the whole thing was still shit.
Adam Russell
This.
Kayden Brown

Wyatt Torres

Angel James
I dunno about that, I have about 1000 hours in all 3 and despite being able to run through them pretty easily. Dark Souls 2 is the only one one that makes me feel genuinely frustrated, which is weird because with the introduction of Lifegems, it becomes the easiest game in the trilogy, more like a hack and slash than a Soulsborne game.
Hunter Powell
Why do I sometimes completely miss in Dark Souls 2? Did they change something with how quickly you can re-angle yourself after you've started an attack? or is it a deadzone thing?
Jace Smith
It's completely nonsensical. You're just going from random weirdly shaped room to random weirdly shaped room fighting enemies from throughout the whole game up until that point, but some things still take forever to get to because the rooms and elevators and ladders are so needlessly long. At least Anor Londo only took like 5 minutes to explore fully.
Adrian Moore
Yeah it's the deadzones.
Someone post that webm.
Mason Brown
What are you missing with specifically? Sometimes rapiers completely whiff , but I can't say I've ever swung a UGS point blank and never hit anyone.
Elijah Flores

sometimes i just end up facing away or like 90 degrees to the right or left
might just be me trying to move too early, and fucking up my bearing
Gavin Thomas
Had some good set pieces from a visual standpoint and the Glass Knight fight was pretty fucking dope, but other than that it was DaS 2 as usual, which means it sucked.
Connor Allen
It's not a good game at all, and it's a terrible Souls game. Why do you consider it a good game?
III is better than I and only second to Bloodborne.
Andrew Anderson
Lothric Castle actually looks like a castle though
Oliver Barnes
The interior layout is boring and a massive letdown compared to the imposing exterior.
Michael Anderson
Most of my playtime is from DS2 out of the soulsborne mainly because the dual wielding was awesome and magic was actually useful when invading compared to DS3. Also there was an actual reward to beating the game with no death or no bonfire.
Levi Williams

it's annoying as fuck to navigate through and that one elevator to the singing lady is obnoxiously long. i like the atmosphere it puts off when you reach the steps to the castle but it immediately goes away the second you start walking up.
Brody White
Jonathan Wood
Nope,. real reason is because Bamco decided it would be on PS3 and X360 instead after From had already been working on it for a while expecting to target PS4 and XB1
So that means the scale of the game had to be drastically reduced (so a good 75% of the game world was chopped), all of the shaders, lighting and effects had to be downgraded (so all assets made with PBR in mind had to be done using standard shaders and the extra dynamic lighting that many levels were designed around had to be turned off) and what levels were left had to be severely downgraded in visual and content complexity (many levels got severely abridged and almost all were reverted to earlier blockout versions then selectively had a handful of detail parts kitbashed into them, this is why it feels like 90% of the game locales were shipped as a pre-alpha, they basically were)
simply put Bamco is at fault for making them downgrade the game

The only incentive I can think of is that beating him makes Vendrick marginally less tedious to kill.
But if you can beat the Ancient Dragon you can beat Vendrick easily, so it's pointless.

Aldia is the best NPC in the entire series.

Demo ran fine on the PS3. It was too early for the next generation. Stop coming up with fake excuses.

user, how new are you? Show demos rarely ever run on native hardware, they almost always run on PCs
And devs almost always get access to new consoles well before the public is aware of them
Brayden Martinez
It's nowhere near as bad as Yea Forums, /vg/, reddit and resetera made it out to be.
Luke Sanders
It was absolutely horrible for me, but probably because I kept being invaded by the same blueberry over and over again as I made my way through
Grayson Brooks
Fucking retard. There was a demo you could DOWNOAD to your own PS3.
Anthony Sullivan
That was already gutted compared to what was shown at TGS.
Ethan Diaz
Not really, it still featured the better castle layout in the woods of the fallen giants, had pitch black dark sections and had nicer graphics.

>Tanimura replied that, “The engine was not created with the next generation focus. The development of the first Dark Souls was particularly long, the engine had become obsolete. It is for this reason that we wanted to start from scratch with Dark Souls II to be able to fully express what we wanted. .
>“I know that the next generation consoles are recurring themes this year, but the potential of the Xbox 360 and PS3 has not yet been fully exploited.

Brody Butler
Next time you're there take your time and check out that short passage in its entirety.
It's absolutely FILLED with errors and unfinished shit, including some placeholder floor textures from Undead Burg in the back, rain that apparently only pours down in the boss arena but nowhere else judging by the windows or the glorious shadow of the level that gets projected on the nearby mountains due to faulty lighting as seen here .
Evan Phillips
They flat-out said that they had to completely remake Drangleic from the ground up.
Jonathan Brooks
From Software, Ubisoft and CDPR are the main reasons why I don't care about E3 demos anymore and consider them prerendered CGI that aims to show the spirit of the game.
Ryan Smith
Yeah, because what was once supposed to be DC is now the Dragon Shrine.
Jose Bell
>what was once supposed to be DC is now the Dragon Shrine.
The interview said that they wanted the castle to feel isolated and dark, so I doubt it. They wanted it to be Vendrick's private retreat that he built far from his kingdom to hide his regrets.
Gavin Martinez
That thing was featured heavilly on the official site but doesn't do anything or have any relevance to anything in the game, I wonder if we'll ever figure out what it was actually meant for
Camden Ortiz
dragonleic castle looks like some retard just randomly slapped shit together with modding tools in the last two days before release. Absolutely embarrassing
Ive seen higher quality maps on fucking garrys mod
Lincoln Nelson
>I doubt it
One piece of concept art related to Drangleic Castle in the design works book shows a castle that is more akin to the Dragon Shrine and the intro flat out still uses the Shrine as Drangleic Castle.
Dylan Lewis
It is you who is a fucking trash, and you enjoy the taste and texture of your own vomit
Jace Watson
And when you are in Drangleic Castle the game sometimes loads LOD model assets of it that still use the bright textures that look more like as if they belong to the Dragon Shrine.
One area where you can do that is in front of the door to the hall with the Executioner's Chariot horse, next to the platform with the gargoyle on it.

Kayden Sanchez
Because you don't have any real aiming/wind up frames in 2.
It's why you also can't hit shit out of a roll and all this also affects NPC invaders and player-sized humanoids.

I feel like nobody has ever told you before, so I'm going to. You're 'that guy' who thinks he sees something, forms a complete idea of how something is/why something is based on your completely fucked info that is wrong in the first place and then proceeds to share this thing with everyone else and doesn't understand when everyone stares at you like an idiot (that you admittedly are). Please, the next time you think you have something everyone needs to know about, just stop, and don't speak.
Wyatt Green
god I seriously fucking despised the fact that they felt like TURN RATE of all things needed to be limited in dark souls 2. There was absolutely nothing wrong with it in 1.
this isn't monster hunter and I'm not using a fatass greatsword, just let me turn around and hit something

No.

Literally everything in the game is pandering to DaS1.
The whole concept. The lord souls' new monsters. There's literally a lord vessel in mahoola. The scorpion lady and his bro being a direct "remember quelaag?” quest, etc. The whole game is a shitty fanfic.
Jonathan Cooper
The same, but to a much larger extent applies to DS3 so my point still stands. I don't disagree with you, I hated DS2 when it first came out, but after playing Sotfs after DS3 I found it very refreshing.

Justin Jackson
yeah forgot how the firekeeper was constantly interacting with the chosen undead and visiting them on their journey like the emerald herald
and all the times the chosen undead had to pay NPCs to open up secret paths for them
and all the poison spitting statues and the talking rats and the complete lack of a poison swamp which dark souls 1 and 3 definitely didn't have either
oh yeah and starting the game off with a thorough tutorial instead of a boss fight was totally ripping off dark souls 1
yeah so many things dark souls 2 just couldn't help but pander to
Austin Cooper
No one wanted sequels. Everyone wanted spiritual successors.
Thomas Long
>all of the original ideas DaS2 had are bad: the post
Luke Nguyen
pate's a liar, creighton is a murderer.
creighton is the correct choice
Henry Richardson
DS2 was a spiritual successor except in name. There's almost nothing linking it to DS1 except
>Estus
>Undead (which is not unique to Souls)
>Like, 10 or so weapons and armour sets
>The Lord Souls as a bonus meta item you get in NG+
And people went apeshit that it was "pandering" and they would rather have a continuation of the STORY of DS1 and not nostalgia.
So then DS3 continued the STORY and had almost everything else be completely new or a throwback to Demon's Souls, everyone's apparently favourite game, and they think it sucks.
Nathaniel Campbell
I got World of Goo for free because I helped someone through it.
Owen Butler
i mean it just sounds like you dont like the game, you dont like it when they re use ideas and you dont like the ones they made up, why are you even in this thread?
i loved dark souls 2 and im playing it again and im just here to let you know that believeing dark souls 2 is as pandering to dark souls 1 as dark souls 3 is some serious brain dead logic
if anything dark souls 2 is closest to demon souls but i doubt you've played any of them anyway based off your erroneous view on the matter, which you are entitled to and brings me back to my point, why are you even in this thread?
Jeremiah Bennett
Yeah, but is Bloodborne any good or just a consolewar shitpost device?
Nicholas Baker
DaS2 is literally a continuation of the story. And it ducking sucks. 3 made arguably the best choices to get it back up to track fucking end that shitshow.
Elijah Fisher
I'd argue that some of those are retreads, at least in part, of some of the areas from previous games but I digress. The Ringed City and Archdragon Peak were cool, if a bit small.
This desu. DS1 is a nice self-contained story and this retreading of plot points and concepts cheapens it.
Thomas Brown
by the thumbnail i though it was a breast comparison chart form the side
Liam Taylor
I like the concept and visuals but respawning reindeer can fuck off. If you don't kill one fast enough and another spawns you're dead.
Hudson Ward
>having to wait for an npc to speak its dialogue EACH AND EVERY SINGLE TIME that you want to level up
Isn't actually original to 2, but to DeS, also isn't fun.
>shit being blocked by fucking fragrant branches of yore instead of special mechanisms, bosses or doors you have to loop around to
Not fun.
>poison spitting statues that literally stun lock you and make you stop moving
Not fun either.
>shitty tutorial with stones instead of an area that actually teaches you by playing the game regularly and making progress
Still not fun. Good thing you can completely ignore it though. Hate the mandatory walk to mahoola then.
I don't think it's just me, but the game is a drag.
Jason Collins
If you've played the other Dark Souls games, it will be pretty underwhelming. Had you played Bloodborne first, I'm sure it would be great.
Jeremiah Williams
>DS3 continued the STORY
>When the whole story of DS3 is literally just the second half of dark souls, including going back to the Kiln and killing Gwyn again
>Ending is literally just either linking the flame again or not
Meh I'll say that DaS3 had some nice ideas. Seeing the son of Gwyn, what happened to Gwynevere, the fate of Anor Londo to a certain extent, but then the game is flooded with fucking fanservice and pandering that didn't even need to exist. I honestly think that the story of DaS3 is the weaker part of the game, even if better than 2. And don't get me started on the DLCs because those were a fucking travesty.
Thomas Edwards
I've played them all on PC with patches and light graphic tweaks.

don't listen to him I played ds1 and 2 before bloodborne and I loved it even more than than the first dark souls despite liking dark fantasy more than victorian era
it's entirely subjective wich one you like the most but bloodborne is definitely a good game regardless
Carson Flores
I just realized the "memories" are relics of the supposed time travel mechanic. It kills me to wonder what DaS2 could have been given enough time.
Samuel Adams
The memory versions of FotFG are apparently also a later iteration of the map that was made before the rollback.
Jace Sanders
What rollback? Before the complete restructuring of the game, or the rollback between the demo with the great lighting and the final game?
Joseph Foster
It's literally circle strafe to his side.
Will do a NG+99 run, bois. Wish me luck.

lolwat
You didn't play it, did you user?
Isaac Butler
The latter and judging by the TGS videos even that one had its share of graphical issues that they didn't fix like the missing bottoms of the ceiling arches or the lack of rain outside the windows.
Chase Martinez
I'm not even sure anymore how many versions of the game there were.
Like, from when were all those old maps that were found in the DLC data?
