So now that I have completed the entire series, its pretty clear to me that Bloodborne was the best game by a decent margin, followed by DS3 probably. For me it really outshined all the others in terms of story, visuals, and gameplay.
>>
for me it was the dlc that distinguished BB from the rest of the series
>>
>>334429908
Imo it's
BB>DS1>DeS=DS3>DS2
DS3 just tries to hard to be DS1 and has too many references at every corner while also reusing assets from older games and most bosses on DS3 are pretty bland or jsut slow version of BB bosses
>>
DS3 = BB > DaS > DaS2 > DeS
>>
>>334431221
>has too many references at every corner
sorta this

we didn't need another tower of latria style dungeon and honestly stormruler was stupid and ruined a boss
>>
For me it's DS1=DS3> DeS>BB> DS2
Bloodborne was good, but I just prefer the medieval style of the Souls series.
>>
ds1 > bb = ds3 > des >>ds2

blood borne was great but dark souls 1 had the best pvp by far, the best art, the best everything,
>>
AotA>Old Hunters>DaS3>DaS>DeS>BB>DaS2

Bloodborne's main game content was garbage save a very small amount of good moments

The DLC is so much better than the main game though, it's ridiculous

DeS = BB > DS1 > DS3 >>>>>>>>>>>>>> DS2

I haven't played BB's dlc yet, though so my opinion might be a little skewed

I agree. DS3 might have been better if weapon arts weren't outright worthless 90% if the time and half the bosses weren't one-dimensional. Not to mention pvp is somehow worse because invasions are always just 1v3s.

BB had its whole unique theme and atmosphere with extremely dynamic weapons and bosses. I can't see anyone legitimately preferring das3 for anything other than the characters.

Because you can tell that it just tries to pander to DS1 fans and nothing more, the story is just the same shit, "same" NPCs, weapons with pretty much every NPC name from earlier games and level designs that are just bland versions of BB and DeS areas

Bb is the worst for me. Didn't like the aesthetic, spin to win made it too easy, character creation and online play were a huge downgrade from ds2. Level design and bosses are no doubt better than ds2, but player options were gimped hard
>>
>>334431590

DeS has much better PvP.
>>
BB was playing through muddy disappointment that was always on the cusp of becoming so much more interesting

Nightmare of mensis and nightmare frontier were such shitty areas to end the game on, with shitty bosses as well

In fact, every boss after amelia is basically one long trail of disappointment, excluding ebrietas and gehrman, every area is more unrewarding and full of Bloodborne's less interesting encounter design

DS3 by comparison is full of interesting miniboss encounters and genuinely fun changes in scenery with large scale level design that is far ahead of any other game in the series

the correct order OBJECTIVELY is

Dark souls 3 > Demon's Souls > Dark souls 1 > Dark souls 2

Bloodborne is not a souls game, stop pretending it is just because it has similar features, it's completely different in style of narrative, theme and overall direction, it doesn't follow any kind of formula from the souls series, if anything it's a massive downgrade of established and fully functional and working features of the souls series like equip load that is misteriously missing, it's a watered down edgy mediocre game for angsty teenagers and nothing more, they literally made it to get sony to help them make their next gen engine and funding, literal scraps of the infinitely more polished dark souls 3, pic related, THIS is a game with quality and thought put into it.

BB easily has the best gameplay, and is consistent in quality in almost every respect, as well as feeling refreshing.

DkS3 was a huge letdown and I wasn't surprised or curious even once, as they made no attempt to employ any mystery or intrigue.

No but there are weapons and armors that reference the ancient kingdom of Drang(no leic in there).

>>334429908
Ultimate thing with Souls games is that they are all flawed. Their flaws add to the charm, but they are still flaws nonetheless and a sign of the developers always experimenting and trying new things. Not everything works, but most of it does.

Bloodborne is by far the most solid entry in the series though. It has the least flaws and is the most realized of the games. The setting feels more coherent and it builds upon itself and the lore in extremely satisfying ways. The weapons and combat is the most polished too.

Objectively I think BB is most certainly the best game in the series, but I think all of the Souls games are near equal in the end of the day and each are a worthy installment to say the best.

It's really obvious when people critique a Souls game that they just have a favorite one and don't like all the ways the other ones deviate from it. Having played DaS2 recently for the first time, I had no real issues with it in the sense that I felt it was a worthy successor to the game. Almost all the complaints I see people mention about it can be summed up as "DaS1 did this and DaS2 does not."

In other words I argue

DeS = DaS 1 = DaS 2 = BB = DaS3

If I had to personally order them because a gun was to my head I would say

BB > DaS3 = DeS > DaS2 > DaS1

Sorry but the flaws of DaS1 stick out to me too much. So many areas just aren't fun and the master key feels mandatory to have any real control or fun in a playthrough.

When the game is constantly tickling your balls with the eldritch mystery you can't help but grow excited for some weirdness to start happening, but it never does and after defeating rom your left with areas that feel like retreads of previous areas content and ideas, with a few new additions excluding cainhurst

Bloodborne just hit all the right notes for me, I fucking loved the setting, combat, art style, weaponry, bosses and then the eldritch twist made me cream my pants. I even fucking love FRC chalice dungeons. The DLC was just utterly godly as well.

Dark Souls 1 was my first, and was my favorite game ever for a period of time. It's very inspired and memorable, but honestly doesn't hold up that well these days. The last half isn't very good, and the combat feels really sluggish and easy now.

Demon's Souls is really convoluted and has a lot of weirdness going on, this could be seen as a positive by some but I did not like it. I fucking loved the atmosphere, NPCs, story, and weird bossfights, overall it's so different that it is hard for me to place.

Dark Souls 3 plays fantastically, it's gameplay is almost as good as Bloodborne's with much more variety. The level design is really good, and the fashion souls is by far the best we have ever seen, but the boss fights are largely kind of bland and unmemorable. I actually think this is probably the best PvP yet though.

I really don't think I need to mention my issues with DaS II because they are the same ones that have already been posted thousands of times.

The game is weird enough without going full retard like other games with similar themes. It's done in a tasteful way similar to eternal darkness.

It's really not similar to eternal darkness though

In that game it really pays off to see the three ending scenario, the huge underground city, it's payoff in terms of area design is much more interesting than what happens to yahargul as you view the areas over multiple timelines

Not to mention the sanity effects in eternal darkness being markedly more effectively tied to the gameplay than bloodborne's insight system, although that's deviating from the point

Eternal darkness is a much, much better lovecraft-inspired game anyway.

Arcane is one of the best stats for scaling, I'd say skill is far worse. Arcane's problem isn't that it doesn't scale well, it's that it's hard to start a build with because you don't get any tools early.
While some tools soft cap at 50 arcane, things like a call beyond and tiny tontirus don't even soft cap until 70. When you add +flat arc blood gems it makes it more dynamic than any stat i can think of.

Sounds like you have no idea how to play if you think Bloodtinged or Arcane were bad. Both have huge damage. Early game Arcane is one of the strongest builds you can run and you don't even have hunter tools at that point.

The thing is build variety isn't the point of Bloodborne. It is much more an action game than the other Souls games. That's why it doesn't have Souls in its title and why it has basically no platforming.

In return the combat and weapon depth is far superior to other Souls games. Who cares if you don't have a lot of build variety when each weapon is unique and deep enough to do a whole playthrough with?

It's fine to not like that it doesn't have 200+ items like other Souls games, but don't act like that's a flaw with the game.

DMC3 also doesn't have a ton of build variety man what a piece of shit!

>>
>>334434194
You don't even need tools to do well with arcane though. You just pick a weapon like saw spear and put some element gems on it and start completely wrecking the entire game.

>>334434356
3 with DLC will probably become everyone's favorite I imagine. The DLC only seems to be getting better with each game, though I thought the frozen DLC in 2 was complete shit but the other two were great.

In the long run I think the linear nature of 3 will hurt it. I can't really see myself replaying 3 much to try out new builds and weapons like one might in DaS1 or DeS.
>>
>>334434449
Get ready for ancient serpents and abyss related stuff because that shit is so obviously cut from the game it hurts.
>>
>>334433859
nah

Eternal darkness felt much more grounded in the human experience and how the characters in the game largely came out the scenarios, it's game structure and style simply works better with the lovecraft material, it also had better examples of multi-timeline and dimensional shit, making the player character feel weak (you never actually directly kill any of the "greater beings"), and it

While bloodborne had some more direct inspirations very clearly laid out in it's game design, and especially the DLC, I felt that the game design itself doesn't exactly lend well to subject matter through directly killing the greater beings, barring oedon, the horror and weirdness, nor the insanity/madness themes, which all felt very subdued in bloodborne
>>
>>334434201
>DMC3 also doesn't have a ton of build variety man what a piece of shit!

Are you insane? DMC3 has 20x more build variety than bloodborne.

>>
>>334434664
>you never actually directly kill any of the "greater beings"
Have you even played ED? In the true ending you killed all three enemies of mantarok.
>>
>>334434523
DaS3 isn't actually that linear, you can go kill the priestess in the high wall, the dancer, do Oceiros and the Untended Graves, kill Lothric and Lorian all before Vordt. The only strict linear progression is you have to defeat the Deacons and Abyss Watchers before you can get to Irithyll, but even those two can be done in any order really. And after that it's open again. You can head into the Profane Capital before fighting the Pontiff and save Aldrich for last. Or you can do Archdragon Peak before reaching the Profane Capital as well.

The only actual linear progression required is through the Road of Sacrifices, the rest is pretty well up to you. That's akin to Anor Londo splitting the game in half.
>>
>>334434523
I would imagine that as well.
The main game is really, really fucking awesome. I just have some issues with game balance/enemy designs/overall usability of everything that its not my favorite yet.

I can't fucking wait for the DLC. If FROM continues their trend of making DLC absolutely mindblowing, everyone will be in on a real treat. The people who didn't play BBs DLC have no idea what kind of quality they can expect.

The linearity doesn't really bother me at all, the game progression in 3 is really good. Everyone likes boasting about DaS' many options at the start when the only sensible thing to do first is burg/parish because you're so blatantly underlevelled, that its ridiculously unfun to do any other area.
>>334434449
At least they admitted it this time, instead of going back on their word like with DaS2
>>
>>334434842
no, the player character didn't

The greater beings killed themselves, through the Roivas's influence

It's not the same as literally going up to a giant god in their weird ass dimension and stabbing them in the foot a million times with a sword
>>
>>334434664
>much more grounded in the human experience
>good for lovecraft
also, the ONLY actual great one you "kill" is the Moon Presence, directly before becoming a great one yourself.
>>
>>334433815
It's people who have never played it assuming that because it is faster even though it's objectively less mashy than any other souls game due to far more aggressive enemies and bosses and total lack of poise.
>>
>>334434991
So according to you using a summoning spell isn't the act of attack? The character used a gameplay mechanic to kill a old one. That's it no matter how you try to spin it. It was just a 2 levels higher summoning spell
>>
>>334435105
More grounded in the sense that it gives a better and more in focus view of the various characters deterioration in their numerous plotlines
>>
>>334434919
That's still linear. Killing the Dancer early is pointless and just lets you go to some optional areas that won't really do much for you in the long run. DaS1 and DeS are way less linear than DaS3.
>>
>>334435105
You also have to mention that the hunter isn't truly human either as he's blood infused

the hunters are also imbued with a special power from the Moon Presence to kill the other great ones/beasts. In the cutscene in the beginning, the red bloody werewolf represents beasthood about to take you after the blood transfusion, and then the fire killing it and messengers overtaking you represent the MP choosing you as a hunter and saving you.

This, combined with using the umbilical cords and ascending is the ONLY reason we can kill Moon Presence, who is the only real great one encountered in the game. We might not have even killed him, cthulhu got rammed with the boat but just went back to sleep, Moon Presence probably isn't totally dead.

People who use the "but you KILL great ones!" argument have no idea what they are talking about.

>>
>>334435481
In terms of aesthetics and more direct lovecraft tropes I would definitely agree with you, I just felt that as a game, Eternal Darkness makes much better use of these various elements towards it's overall game design, in a way that supersedes bloodborne's own application of it

Not that Bloodborne is a bad game mind, but rather that I felt it had so many opportunities to expand beyond it's scope into new territory and themes, I felt it was way too entrenched in the base yharnam/victorian ingredientss to blossom outwards, in a way which negatively affected both my enjoyment and interest. I also feel that as a Lovecraft/Eldritch game, Bloodborne is far too reliant on Souls elements to take advantage of the more eldritch things, I would have liked for it to disperse somewhat from that if Miyazaki is serious about exploring a similar route in the future.

Yes, it is allowed by magic infused rings, there's actual gods in the world of dark souls but they all abyde the laws of phisics perfectly, even if you level up all your endurange you still can't fast roll with the heaviest shit unless you use magic rings, in BB everyone can ludge gigantic weapons and still hop around like bunnies because M-MUH COATS
>>
>>334436039
Are you slow? That's exactly what I said, some of them ARE like Lovecraft great ones and MP is the only one we fight that is. People say it isn't lovecraftian because you kill great ones but they don't realize that rom, ebrietas, amygdala, etc aren't full great ones.
>>
>>334435953
Yes it does. First you aren't a human, second you don't wear armor because beast claws shred it(cainhurst armor protects as much as leather) and third you'd better wearing porous clothing because it more easily soaks up in beast blood that heals you.

I agree. So far Bloodborne impressed me much more than Darksouls 3. I was obsessed with Bloodborne. Darksouls 3 is good, but I'm not fascinated by it like I was playing Bloodborne. Everything about Bloodborne is fantastic.

Nice arguments there if you actually played the game you'd know that being splashed in blood heals you - it's what cucks like you try to sell as health regen

Still far more linear than DaS2 where you could imediatelly head two separated ways and after the Dragon rider, go a third one as well, while also having 4 bosses to kill in any order to get to drangleic or just some farming while avoiding some areas. Me for example, the first time I played I didn't even kill the Rotten.
DaS3 is high wall - settlement - road of sacrifices no matter what

>Bloodborne looks better than DS3 by a wide margin
I don't know if it's more due to the consistent style of the environments in BB or what but at times DS3 has DS2 levels of textures/backdrop environments while I never noticed anything so glaring in BB

>>334432546
>every boss after amelia
You thought Paarl, Logarius, Rom, One Reborn and Amygdala were bad? I mean Rom and One Reborn were pretty easy but they were at least memorable fights. Like One crawling out of that bleeding portal in the sky? Goddamn that shit was spectacular

You can literally use every weapon in the game, the fuck are you on about?

I couldn't get into Bloodborne. All the edgy blood death gothic bullshit and monsters made of random piles diseased body parts got old fast.
>>
> people still using year old shitposts to detract from Bloodborne
PC gamers, never change
>>
>>334429908

I agree.

Bloodborne is literally, the perfect video game.

It's a great addition to the already stellar PS4 Exclusive Lineup.

I just feel so privileged to be able to live in a time where a company like Sony loves and respects its consumer base so much that they just keep giving 11/10 games, time and time again.

You literally play a corpse in DS that steal souls. It's more edgy than a man hunting werewolfs. Or did you think Van Helsing was a edgy movie too?

Hope you haven't played Bloodborne Souls 3 then

I don't get why people have a hard time with the Watchers, they attack themselfs, you can baackstab them, everything stunlocks them and they don't have much health
I just cleared Anor Londo and up until now there's no boss that took more than one try. I played the other souls game before so it helps, but some enemy encounters are way harder than any boss in this one
>>
Are the DaS1 servers completely dead for anyone else?
I've not seen a single message or bloodstain in literal weeks.
>>
>>334439264
It's because people don't know how to deal with the second form. To be honest it took me a good 9 tries, the same number of tries for Ornstein and smough, this was the first boss so far that gave me trouble but I didn't mind because of the music and how fun the fight was

DS1 servers on PC have been down for a few days. Namco is currently working on fixing them.

Bloodborne lacks the depth, variety and exploration to be the best Souls game. It's literally style over substance: the game. And no, running around killing eldritch horrors isn't lovecratian.
>>
>>334439780
Really now? Why'd they knock em out in the first place?
I really don't know if I should trust Bamco. They're not particularly competent support-wise.

>>334432290
>There is no cycle because in DS3 there never was a age of darkness
You're a fucking moron. The cycle implies that they continue to reignite the flame.
>>
so then everyone pretty much agrees that bloodborne is the best?
