I don't know how you people play it so much.
I'm only like 50 hours in and I cant find the motivation to play anymore. It just feels like a hamster-wheel of the the same enemies despite having different models.
I think the last dudes I killed were the rotface and godskin of the flower village.
feels legit boring to play.

>Elden Ring
>Some flaws like recycled bosses and dungeons
>"overrated piece of shit, 7/10 at best"

>Dark Souls 1
>blatantly unfinished second half + still recycles 1/4th of its bosses
>"b-but it's a flawed masterpiece"

All of those things are factually true.
And the game shipped with 4 bugged questlines, potentially 5.
It's still a game worth putting 200 hours in and you're a still a faggot-not because you don't agree with this statement, but because you just are.

s-shahzamsisters???

>DeS
Niche audience simply because PS3s weren't widely owned back then
>DS1
Still fairly niche, obtuse and intimidated enough to gatekeep mainstream gamers
>DS2
Bamco try to cash in on the difficulty meme, a wave of underage normies become fans
>Bloodborne
Loved by redditors and women for the lovecraftian horror setting, also easy to play so extremely mainstream audience
>DS3
The last few redditors who couldn't get into DS1 enter here because it's a bit faster and smoother like BB
>Sekiro
Big curveball, suddenly the redditors have to have sense of timing to progress through the game. Filters millions. A step in the right direction.
>Elden Ring
Hyped to unprecedented levels, eclipses all other games and becomes the new assassin's creed/call of duty. Goes beyond reddit appeal and pulls the absolute lowest dregs into the "fanbase", which doesn't really exist at this level of popularity.

Souls is shit now. Normies are taking over. Wont be long before we get wokeshit in it now...

You just don’t like it or it’s not the right time for you to play. Not that hard to figure out

this unironically

I think people hold ER and DS1 to different standards because ER is way more popular. I'm 100% sure if ER came first, everyone would be shitting on DS1 to no end.

Wrong, because Ds1 is fun and ER is shit

I agree, I loved all the Souls games but Elden Ring has something special. I have never put 200 hours into a game as quickly as this one.

Elden Ring is the sort of game that would have been made in the 80's-90's if the technology was available at the time
A huge adventure, chock-full of secrets and easter eggs, a worthy successor to games like Adventure or the Ultima Underworld series

Elden Ring is the best Alice-in-Wonderland game.

user, you can't like popular things, otherwise "they" will get mad

Oof sorry that you think that sweaty but it seems you are a little out of the loop....... Elden Ring is much too popular to be good unfortunately........ We here as members of the Yea Forums hivemind have to hate popular thing...... Ooff so embarrassing..

You are mentally ill. Holy shit. I honestly feel bad for you. Being a contrarian doesn't make you interesting! Fuck.

Just finished it after 160 hours, fucking great game desu

I dont mind the criticism but personally its my favorite game

>dear
well done, user

>DS1 is fun and ER is shit
absolutely delusional, you should take off your nostalgia goggles and see DS1 for what it is

Attached: 1478054031937.jpg (636x616, 69.01K)

ds1niggers are a different breed, any of their complaints at the other games is present a thousand times more in ds1 but its ok because a bunch of shit areas are interconnected by a few elevators

Dark Souls feels slow as fuck after playing ER honestly

>chock-full of secrets and easter eggs
Have you drunk the marketing Kool-aid or something?
Give me 1 example that isn’t pure shit.

why does the game input drop so fucking much? No I'm not talking about the roll being triggered by releasing the button - that's always been in souls. The game actually just straight up drops so many heals, attacks and rolls. Hard to take it seriously when its this broken.

You missed the part where PC got DS1 and it all went to shit after that.

> Reddit

I was discussing Demon’s Souls on Reddit far early than Yea Forums ever mentioned it

>This is fucking amazing
ly bad

Best ending

Bloodborne and Elden Ring are the only games in the series that have had difficulty that served as anything more than a roadbump or setback to me.
I don't think your assessment is remotely accurate.

bloodborne is my favourite From game but its by far the easiest. Once you learn parry times in it the entire game becomes trivial.

Kneel.

I wish I could play it more, but ng+ difficulty sucks ass and playing a new character is boring cause you already know what to pick up where.

because it is, these retards only think in old->good and new->bad mentality

I feel really bad for how trash your taste is if this rehashed shit is what made you put in 200 hours. What a surprise Fromfags don't actually play video games though.

Elden Ring had a bunch of areas that made me go "Holy shit, you can actually go here too?"

Even Dark Souls 3 is ablot more deliberate

>once you learn how to play the game the game becomes easier
i fucking hate this board

>Demon’s Souls on Reddit far early than Yea Forums
Demon's Souls was only really discussed on Something Awful

100% correct

There are literally entire secret areas that can only be accessed via climbing into certain coffins in certain areas

>complains about reddit
>makes reddit post
Fuck off.

>200
What in the actual fuck could you possibly be doing past 130

Old good
New bad

Genshin Impact is a much better exploration game.

I've felt this way about every new game they've released, Bloodborne is basically DS1-tier now, how much longer can they keep it up is my question.

Stay mad shazam trannies

It's different. Wielding a gun is basically necessary/default in bloodborne, and you can parry from any distance. It's different than equipping a shield in souls games and parrying that way.

i thought it was a very well composed post.

>memorizing the entire world in one playthrough
it must be boring to live your life.

based, fuck fromdrones.

You have to go back.

>doesnt make any valid argument
>just insults the other party
Yep, sounds about right! He's speaking the truth, you can't even refute him except for his reddit obsession. Normalfags and trannies will eventually now flock to this once beloved franchise, and it wont be long before we get wokieshit in it too. this happens with every normie-ified IP, user...

>Sekiro the hardest Souls game
Really? I thought the parry window was pretty forgiving, and the lack of a stamina bar made movement a non issue. I had way more issues with Bloodborne. Trying to figure what was and wasn’t parriable was a pain in the ass, and if you guessed wrong, you get stunlocked into a combo for 3 seconds.

People call Sekiro the hardest because it's the one that doesn't give you outside assistance in any way, you can't summon someone to beat the boss for you and combat is heavily reliant upon player skill, it's not hard to figure out why that was the game specifically that journos got pissy over not having an easy mode because it actually doesn't have one

Why should anyone have to 'refute' pure autism? If someone walks in my room and shits on the floor, I'm not gonna write a dissertation on why they shouldn't have done that, I'm gonna call them retarded.

I put 70 hours in this game to beat elden beast after going mid way into several quests and I can safely say I feel like I genuinely wasted my time, it felt ok at the start but the combat system just doesn't support a 50h or god forbid 200 hour game, its just too simple

>user realized the meaning of a peak before normalfags

you have talent, normalfags ride the peak and take everything down the shitter through pure shittery hype

Notice how this "person" isn't actually talking about the game. He is talking about everything around the game. Things like fanbases affect this dude's view on games. If something is popular and enjoyed by the wrong people he can no longer enjoy it himself. How embarrassing.

>Linear game
>Ends faster
>Still the better game
Yep, DS1 is a better game.

I just started my 3rd build and am approaching 100 hours myself. Totally in love, but should play something else. Definitely the first time I’ve played 100 hours straight of a single game.

ng+, game is amazing
