The only thing that DS3 did better was the invasion part but the combat system itself is extremely shitty. You can just mash your opponent with nothing but R1.

Having played both i like DS3 better so far.

Both are great games but bloodborne gives me more annoyances
1. vial grinding
2. boring hub
3. I don't like the gem system
4. less variation

still both are great games.

I think the whole "git gud" thing is stupid, but holy shit being so bad that you need to farm vials takes dedication. There are so many enemies that drop them and you get more than enough souls to just buy some when going through an area.

>>334709380
>4. less variation
It's pretty funny. BB has way less weapons but more of them are appealing instead of DS3 weapons. You can kick most of them straight in the garbage.

>>
>>334710002
By the time you reached the hard bosses you should have a maximum amount of stored virals at your bank.
Invest the blood echos of one R4 or 5 chalice dungeons in virals and you are done.
>>
>>334709745
yeah i love it when i keep fucking up at a boss i need to grind these shitty vials first. stop defending this horrible system.
>>
>>334710002
>he makes excuses to try to justify being shitty

I fought all the bosses in the game.

>>334710246
Then stop fucking up at a boss. Pay attention to what he does and learn how to beat him rather than throwing your corpse at him and hoping it eventually works out.

>I can't get gud

>>
>>334710168
well now its clear you just spent way too much time in the starting areas where there are higher drop rates on vials, someone competent should definitely not max out the vial storage while going through the first areas
>>
>>334709380
you also forgot to mention that you can pick up estus flasks from the ground, and you can gain your health back if you just spam attacks.

dark souls 3 is by far the more challenging game

In Dark Souls 3 you'll never lose health because you spam R1.
>>
>>334710406
What the fuck are you talking about? I said that blood virals are no problem as any competent player won't go higher than level 120 and by the time you reach r4+ chalice dungeons you should already be that high and can waste all your souls in virals then.

The fuck are you on about.

In some ways. Combat and general gameplay wise it's a lot better but the Chalice Dungeons were a fucking waste of great bosses and enemies.

I do like the lack of bullshit content in DS3 (except for smoldering lake even though it has some pretty cool lore). It's also more rewarding in regards of exploration and has some way better secrets kept away (i.e. archdragon peak, untended graves). It's also more engaging lore/world-wise although not necessarily better.

All in all it simply comes down to taste even though I personally prefer Bloodborne.

>>
>>334708338
IMO, yes it is. Maybe it's because I've been playing Souls game since Atlus published DeS, but DaS3 just feels like the epitome of the Souls concept, while Bloodborne was a breath of fresh air, with its own unique (relatively speaking) art direction, mildly different combat and interesting lore; the world was great, as well.

The biggest problem about DaS3 so far, at least for me, is how "Dark Souls" it is, and how many references it has.

We'll see once the DLC comes out, though.

I played them back to back this month. It was my first time for bloodborne too and whilst it exceeded my expectations I still don't think it's better than ds3. The best part about it is the visual design where id happily give it first place for that but overall no.

I can't even play DS right anymore, BB invaded my skill set and made me adapt to it in order to beat it. Not only that, but the overall design was a breath of fresh air.

That, in my opinion, makes the game leaps ahead of DS3 achievements

Old Hunters is better

But Bloodborne's main game is way, way lower.

Dark Souls 3's mid-late game absolutely fucking crushes it, both in terms of excellent bosses, fun large areas, more cool armour sets, weapons, loads of shit etc.

Plus every single one of DS3's bosses except maybe ancient wyvern has a multiple phase with multiple music phases design, it's a slight step above bloodborne.

The healing system/bonfire system/60fps in most areas are better than bb

In addition, the PVP content is much, much better.

Bloodborne's base game content is basically all shit after vicar amelia except logarius, paarl, gehrman and ebrietas, that's a lot of shit content inbetween.

In addition the areas in DS3 are more varied and usually larger and more sprawling with more interactive level design/shortcuts.

I'm sorry but there is simply no way in hell that BB at release was in any way better than dark souls 3, people are looking with tinted dlc glasses.

Is there any game in the Souls series that has such a perfect feeling of dread?

>>
>>334715449
I included paarl because he is a step above the rest of the mid - late game bosses in sheer visual excellence.

That being said, he isn't exactly an exciting boss to play against, and his music didn't exactly call out

One thing I really enjoy about DS3 is that it took many cues from Old Hunters in design, the bosses all have multiple phases that also have multiple music phases, it really adds to the bosses, sulayvahn in particular stands out as a boss I almost enjoyed as much as ludwig simply because of how the music kicked in when he summoned

I think DS3's DLC needs to take a nod from TOH's weapon additions, which absolutely blew the fuck out of bloodborne's dismal original set of weapons, but mix the level design with DS2 DLC and DS1 DLC, so that they are visually exciting areas, but they interconnect in interesting ways, as that was largely my biggest problem with Old Hunters

It was my favorite boss fight. It wasn't hard but, it was more of the boss arena that did it for me, because most bosses are in some large area that obviously looks like a boss fight arena, the archives, I feel like I just wondered into a unexpecting boss battle.

Would pkekes made their mind about BB? One day it's mindless endless R1 spam then it's gimped stamina that allows only two hits. You guys need to coordinate more because both are shit ways to criticize BB.

>>334716864
in Bloodborne almost nothing drains stamina, you get pretty much infinite quickdodges and most weapons you can chain at least 7 hits with the starting Endurance. You don't need to increase stamina in Bloodborne because what you start with is enough.

In Dark Souls 3 however, you get a really good amount of dodges but you can only swing your weapon a few times, it's fucking frustrating because there's nothing you can do about it, and it's a limitation that wasn't in DaS 1 or 2. Pouring points into Endurance is a waste of souls and your Soul Level due to how poor the returns are.

Storm knocked out the internet, decided to play bloodborne while I wait for it to cone back up to play Ds3 on pc. Go to play BB, without internet connection it will not verify the old hunters dlc, thus I cannot play. Come to find out this is the case will all ps4 games. Remember when people destroyed xbone for wanting to do this same shit.

Yeah. Dark Souls 3 level design is sprawling, full of secrets and shortcuts. Bloodborne's level design is mostly connected corridors.

>>334719680
>though I recon BB didn't sell that well compared to others games
Bloodborne sold 1 million in a little over it's first week, it sold 2 million in under six months.

I think DaSIII will probably outsell it, but BB did better than all the other Souls if you align their releases.
>>
Yes.

It's combat is way more satisfying and there's way more boss variety.
>>
>>334719345
Not that guy, and I enjoy both games equally, but it's obvious DaS3 will sell better than Bloodborne simply by basis that one is exclusive and the other is not.

They're a game in the same genre, made by the same developers, so obviously they have the same fanbase behind both, except DaS also gets the pc/xboxfats audience.
>>
>>334719763
Bloodborne's level design is dense, full of secrets and shortcuts. Dark Souls III's level design is mostly empty with bonfires spammed everywhere.

But BvS was shit.

>>334720570
Dark Souls 3 level design is above bloodborne to be honest, simply because it's large and sprawling with shortcuts, secrets etc, while maintaing variety and interesting little bits to do

There weren't enough opportunities to interact with the environment in bloodborne, and there just wasn't enough in terms of making the levels feel fleshed out other than central yharnam
>>
>>334720570
But I have played it. In comparison the level design is pretty linear and there's not a whole lot of secrets.
>>
>>334720679
No, but that's also dlc content, which was shorter and more focussed, allowing them to make more impressive locations.

The shots in specific, the hemwick lane shots ARE bullshots, there are several of them, they have upped contrasting colours, more particle/atmosphere effects etc.

There are also several shots from central yharnam and cathedra ward still in use that have similarly upped blood effects that simply aren't in the game.

Yet bloodborne fanboys still use them inanely, it's like if dark souls 2 thread fanboys used pre-lighting downgrade bullshots.

Artwork/Graphics: Win.
Lore: Who gives a crap, but old god shit is neat. Tie.
Gameplay: Win. I think the only thing that staggered Bloodborne was Guns. Although it's easy to see how it can turn into a dodge-fest, without shields, I believe trick weapons made gameplay a delight.
Online: Loss. Dark Souls 3 has great online, and that's a major seller for people.
Level design: Probably a loss, I think the level design of the DS series has always been fantastic, but it's a close loss.

It's a tough decision, but I'd say it's a slight win for DS3 between the two. Not many people will go out of their way to buy a console for an exclusive. Doesn't mean BB isn't fantastic, but there are small things (beside the online, people love that shit) that give DS3 a win.

I actually enjoyed the music in dark souls 3 a lot more to be honest.

Although BB had a better production, a lot of the lesser bosses music sounded really boring when I listened to it outside of the game, only in the sense that they suited the bosses because of the horror like influences, but didn't really interest me otherwise. There were a few standout tracks though like ebrietas, gehrman, and the dlc content.

Whereas dark souls 3, I like that every boss in the game has multiple phase music, it makes the fights more intense, I also generally enjoy listening to it outside of the game much more, just a shame that bamco fucked up the ost release.

>>
>>334721819
OH. MUSIC, yes. forgot.

I'd say BB wins in the Music Category, just because of how it 1. Fits the theme so well
2. well orchestrated and variety of instruments.
The DLC's music especially. Orphan of Kos has one of the most tremendous tracks for a boss fight so intense.

>>334722061
And they're artificially saturated by photoshop, the CA is almost non existant, and probably other stuff. Basically bullshots, the game doesn't actually look like that. So yeah, fuck off.
>>
>>334722061
Literally none of these images look anywhere near as good as the hemwick lane shots posted earlier.

They generally have much less interesting lighting going on, much less atmospheric effects to the point where it sometimes even feels like they've removed a ton after release, and an over-abundance of like 3 colours

I've played bloodborne, so I know that some areas actually look well made, like central yharnam, but there is a lot of horrible textures in the game, and a lot of muddy areas which should have been scrapped
>>
>>334716137
fair
>>
>>334722450
>And they're artificially saturated by photoshop, the CA is almost non existant
No. The only shopping used is stitching them all together.
The reason for CA being almost non-existent is because CA in Bloodborne is only excessive on the edges of the screen, areas that are stitched over with different screenshots.

The only "bullshot" thing about these images is their resolution.
You'd know this if you'd actually played the game (^:

If I'm being completely honest, Dark Souls 3's main game is better than bloodborne's main game. TOH is so amazing, though, that Bloodborne with DLC definitively edges out DS3. So for now, I saw BB. It really depends how good DS3's DLC is. That will decide wether it's better than BB or not

>>334723421
Pontiff Sulayvahn's theme in particular felt like a perfect mash of orphan of kos's theme tied with ludwig's theme philosophy in my opinion

The some hollow intro with the chanting, leading into the swirling strings and vocals, before exploding at phase 2 into the thundering fiery theme that really solidifies the fights atmosphere, it's perfect.

It's honestly my favourite piece in souls/bloodborne

I can't really understand why you think the music is generic.

A lot of bloodborne's less interesting tracks swayed right by me as I was left uninterested by the more dissonant aggeressive tones used to solidify the horror feeling in the game, there were however several very beautiful pieces that felt antiquated and matched the tone of the game very well, but the majority left me kind of disappointed.

Generally each boss in dark souls 3 fits a unique role, and the music as well seems to fit each boss uniquely, I never really felt there was much overlap, each boss felt unique musically.

I wont deny that bloodborne's production is leagues better though.

The abyss watchers and that sorrowful vocal line with the bells, leading into the phase 2 it was amazing.

Aldrich's corrupted use of the gwyndolin melody in a more staggering rhythm, before resting in the transitionary phase between battle changes before exploding outwards with an even more sorrowful outburst as the real flame of the battle ignites.

Yhorm's thunderous chanting and rapid strings in the background fit the monolithic presence in his fight.

Deacons fight with the organ was perfect, one of my favourite souls music moments, it really fit the religious tone of the fight, as the theme grew more intense as the deacons centred round the archdeacon as they prepared the curse and the vocals took centre stage

Champ Gundyr's more subdued and haunting second stage gives the fight a more focussed and agressive feeling, as if the boss is genuinely trying his hardest to kill you, it's perfect

I think I need to play more 3 but lately all it's done has made me miss BB. Granted, I prefer Estus to blood vials and DS3 has a way better invasion and co-op system but I like BB's world better and how there seems to be more branching paths and optional bosses. Plus trick weapons are awesome and they're almost all viable. Blood gem farming blows dick though
