>>336690242
I hated the invasion system in Bloodborne and the blood gem system for weapons was pants on head retarded. I don't wanna have to farm for gems on every character I make especially when the bonuses they provide are almost completely random. I can't tell you how many times I've got a rank 15+ gem that was outclassed by a rank 7 or lower. That and the lack of play style variety killed the game for me in the long run. Still damn good though.

Top kek, I played through BB, DaS2, DaS and DeS again in the months before DaS3, and it's very, very clear that DeS and DaS2 have the simplest boss design.

DaS3 is below old hunters but above bloodborne whereas dark souls remains in the middle.

I'd rather have a 1v4 than the 1v0 I got in Bloodborne. Banter aside though, I do admit that DaS3 invasions are fucked if you're not up against complete retards. It's so fucking bullshit the host can keep summoning an infinite army of the same 4 phantoms over and over again. Shit needs a cool down desperately. And being able to only hold 5 Lloyd's talismans is already bullshit enough when they wear off in 30 seconds and they almost always miss if you try to trust the lock on.

Simple ain't bad as long as its fair imo. Champion Gundyr is a kick ass boss but he's pretty basic all things considered. I'd take 10 of him rather than 1 Ancient Dragon/Wyvern, Vendrick (without the Giant Souls), Bed of Chaos, or Dragon God. Shit like that ain't hard or fair, just tedious.

>>336692007
I just hated how everything in Bloodborne felt like you were just a fast rolling dex build. Even the heavier weapons still hit as fast as most DaS straight swords.
For as slow as the Souls combat can be at times, you still had sometimes had option to play it at Bloodborne speeds, I don't think the same could be said vice versa.
>>
>>336692345
>tfw haven't played BB because no consoles but still think the story and the themes are much more interesting than DS
>>
>>336693068
Well, it's just a different kind of game. They wanted to make something faster and more aggressive and that's what they did.
And no, Souls doesn't play at the same speed, even with straight swords. You can't zip in and out of enemies like you can in BB and you don't get different attacks depending on what direction you roll in.
If you wanna play a "heavy" weapon in BB you could always use the Kirkhammer/Ludwig's and stay in tricked mode forever.
>>
Gonna ask a serious question here:

I'm playing DaS1 with a strength and using the Zweihander. Is there any advantage to using heavy armor aside from the obvious difference in physical defense? I'm having trouble deciding between black iron armor and gold-hemmed black robes.
>>
>>336693068
DaS gameplay system is low tier if you ask me. it's so slow. I love BB for the speed increase, but feel like DaS3 is too fast. am I retarded? yes.
>>
>>336693424
Armor is only good for poise in DaS1, not defense, and you can get plenty of poise with just the Wolf Ring.
Dress lightly.
>>
>>336693452
Because they're trying to introduce BB pacing into a Souls game, and the two don't mesh as well as one might hope for.

Dark Sword is popular therefore I will say it is OP

I wouldn't say it's better, they're about on par imo. I gotta say it was a fucking breath of fresh air after muh cycles for almost 3 games straight though. Although Bloodborne probably had a little easier of a time crafting their world since they played so heavily off Lovecraft (though I guess the same could be said with Dark Souls and classic mythology), they really did do some amazing original stuff with it. I was and still am impressed.

>>
>>336694573
I get that being slow doesn't exactly work in the confines of the lore, but it still feels a tad weak from a mechanical point. In Dark Souls you could play a fast character that relied on dodging, a slow character that relied on blocking, or one in between that could do both. Bloodborne kinda locked you into playing a fast dude that relied on rolling. It felt like a step back from the other games.

Also beat pontiff on my third try just by rolling around, and aldrich too. Rolling really is too good in this game.

The only problem is that blocking is all but completely useless, at least if you try to block like you did in Dark Souls 1 and 2. Rolling is king, especially now that they increased the number of rolls you could do and nerfed stability into the ground so hard it popped up in China.

Only "souls" game i haven't finished. Killed every boss but the last one and lost all interest in even finishing it after hours of chalice grinding to level 5.

Were chalice dungeons a mistake?
>>
>>336696242
It's literally just more optional content, if anything it doesn't add much, but it's not a bad thing.
>>
>>336695656
Dark Souls 3 had a really weird start. I didn't really dig everything up to and including Undead Settlement. But after that I started to enjoy it quite a bit. I only wish that there were more areas like Sen's Fortress to invade in. The Catacombs is close but the traps are all kinda lackluster (sans the ~40 skeletons before the breaking bridge). Least you get a lot of invasions there since it's after a boss and even shit players still have their ember. Lotta hosts are still in Way of Blue too so you get free forked tongues whenever a blue tries to chase you on the Skeleball Bridge. Plus its a great place to go great bow sniping with the obscuring ring.

>>
>>336696429
>>336696242
I'd argue that they were a negative. Many of the good Blood Gems and 2/3 of the Blood Rocks (before you could buy them at the insight vendors) were all random drops you had to grind for in Chalice Dungeons. It took fucking forever to make a competitive build. It was a fucking nightmare. And for as many of the good bosses in them you also had shit like Maneater Boar, Merciless Watchers, Brainsucker, Forgotton Madman, etc. It's true that they were "more content", but half that content was pretty bad and rendered the good content it added null.
>>
>>336697304
I'm 99% sure poise is in DaSIII

>>336697367
Kill yourself. You get Gems that carry you to NG+7 off the brain dolls in Mensis and slightly better ones off the two right by the Orphan of Kos' room in the DLC. You don't have to grind anything unless you want to do the autistic pvp.

Im so sick of the pvp in this game. it doesn't help that my controller randomly chooses when to switch weapons/attack/heal sometimes.

but yea the DLC is going to make it better
BB had a massive lack of variety and the dlc fixed that really well, so im sure DaS3 DLC will be good. souls DLCs are the best parts of them respectively

>>336697502
That's the problem. While the PvP in all the games was autistic as fuck to an extent, Bloodborne's was on another level because of the stupid fucking gems and the fucking chalice dungeons. For an autistic fuck who actually enjoys the PvP in these games, the entire system was fucking retarded. The PvP was what kept me interested after I beat the game with my build, and shit PvP killed any and all replay-ability the game had. And also I'm pretty sure the Winter Lanterns outside of the Chalice dungeons couldn't drop fucking 27.2% EXTRA DAMAGE gems that you could stack 3 fucking times for a CUMULATIVE bonus that gave you more than double fucking damage.
>>336697971
Get the Obscuring Ring, its op as fuck. Just wait outside of lock on range till they fuck up fighting enemies looking for you and one gets to low hp, chuck a Lloyd's, and then run them down. Weed them out 1 by 1. You do this until the host runs outta flask then its just a matter of time. If you really wanna be cheap just get a bow and keep plunking away at them from a distance while running all about the map so they lose where you are.

> souls DLCs are the best parts of them respectively

That's actually really sad to hear. You would think they would start making their games good the first time. But idiots will eat the shit up anyways so why bother. Always leave flaws so people think it's "by accident" and buy the DLC to fix the problems.
>>
>>336700373
I dont eat it up. I hate from for that shit. they clearly have the ability to make shit good, but they hold shit back
thank god this is the last game

Fucking Dancer gets to me because shes so fucking passive. She just stomps around like she's wearing nothing at all and only occasionally attacks. Doesn't help that when she actually does attack she swings her shit super slow. I always end up dodging early and they she gets me with her fucking slow ass sword drags that look like they're from fucking Oblivion or some shit.
>>
How the fuck do i get the Manikin Claws? I never got Yuria (still on first playthrough, finals are here), do am i fucked? Or is there a way to get the shades to invade without her?
>>
Why the fuck can hosts just enter boss battles while being invaded?
>>
>>336687235
Did you even try doing thing or rolling that way? There's no reason why this should be hard as long as you know how to deal with this one attack. Git gud fagit. There are much harder bosses.
>>
The obscuring ring is literally the most fun item in the game.
Prove me wrong.

Let me correct your bad taste.

DeS > DaS3 = DaS > BB > Slashy Souls > DaS2
>>
>>336694405
I did that shit a lot in BB. Fuck that game had some areas that were harder than any bosses in the game.
>>
>>336700929
I'm not 100% sure he'll invade if you don't piss of Yuria. Try going to Farron Keep if the Abyss Watchers are still alive and standing in the middle of the basilisks on the right side of the swamp while embered. He'll also invade in Irithyll after the house where you meet Seigward and the Silver Knights if Pontiff is still alive.

Everyones dead. Im at Soul of Cinder. I was just looking up some weapons to grab to start NG+ with and they looked fun. But i also wanted to do Yuria's quest and nab the Morion Blade on NG+. God dammit.

They look much better in this game then they did in 2 as well.

>hey guys I'll just put my subjective point of view here for everyone to see how retarded I am
You do know people have harder times with some bosses than others right? DaS2 sotfs was easy as fuck for me. BB wasn't, get your head out of your ass
>>
>>336702316
Don't worry, you don't miss much doing Yuria's quest. I think the thing you miss out on is Manikin Claws and Shade Set, which are both lackluster.

what are the requirements for dried finger to work? does the area boss have to still be alive? I tried using it outside sully's room for fight club after killing aldrich, and I used a purging stone to remove hollowing because I've heard that effects it and I was still only able to summon two reds.
>>
>>336703015

Yeah i've just been alternating weapons to see what i like ans those looked pretty fun to screw around with. I dont really care about the set though.

>>336702579
I know, and thats making me want them more.
>>
>>336703180

That is FUCKING stupid. You don't even find the first one until profaned capital.
>>
>>336703090
You have to give him at least 1 scroll within 4 bosses of recruiting him or he leaves. Just give him one of the two that are in Farron Keep next time.
>>336703281
To my knowledge you can only be invaded in an area where you haven't killed a boss. Sorry man.
>>
>>336700602
I just stuck to that ass and fucked her up

shows that the games run really similar to each other

>>336703407
No there is two in farron keep. They are annoying to get though
>>
>>336703090
I killed him immediately because I knew I didn't need spells and I thought he'd might drop a useful ring or something. turns out he does give you one of the best most versatile rings in the game, you just have to buy a fuck tone of spells from him first. fucking stupid.

same thing with the silvercat ring
>find rosaria
>join covenant right away because covenants are swappable on the fly so why wouldn't I join all of them
>instantly get locked out of siris questline

From is fucking retarded sometimes.
>>
>>336703457
I have been invaded in this game exactly once, and it was by two guys at once. Actually a bit disappointed I dont have to fight off invasions.
>>
>>336703407
wew lad
>>
>>336703457
so if you want more than two reds in your world you have to get invaded? you can only ever summon two reds?
>>
alright folkes, the guy under Lothric, how do I bust that nigga outta jail?
I'm at Anor Londo and STILL haven't found the key.

>get invaded back to back after Pontiff by Aldrich cunts
>they parry bait me
>win every time
My only experience with invasions besides gank rape in Farron
>>
>>336704109
From what I have seen as an invader no one seems to know the parry timing for big heavy weapons. I could see people trying to parry my demon greataxe and fucking it up every time.
>>
>>336703759
That shit with Rosaria/Leonhardt and Sirris' questlines is some shit. I finally finished Sirris' quest before offering a Pale Tongue but WHOOPS, I offered all the once i had stocked up at once and now Leonhardt won't kill Rosaria or reappear whatsoever so I can't get his set or weapon.
>>336703847
What color were the two phantoms? I know that if you don't have summons you get placed on the bottom of the list for invasions even if you use a dried finger so its unlikely that you'll ever see an invader over some 4 man gank squad (something both invaders and those that don't summon lament)
>>336703915
I'm not 100% sure if Red Phantom's you summon are placed in the slots for friendly or enemy Phantoms. I know if you summon a Purple via a white sign they're placed in the friendly slots but I'm not sure about Reds/Purples via a red sign.
>>
>>336704773
One was red and I think the other was a watchdog. I was in the crucifixion woods at the time.
>>
>>336703407
that's not even remotely true
>>
>>336704904
Fucking watchdogs. It's be one of my favorite covenants if I got summoned for it more than once and hour. They need to be able to invade from Crucifixion Woods up to the Abyss Watcher fog gate. Just invading at Cruxifiction Woods its stupid.

Wow a game where everything is pretty much leather armor, with no shields, with an emphasis on dodging/side stepping vs a game designed with armor like Havel ls in mind.

>poise is basically functionless
>hyperarmor windows are incredibly tiny
>strength weapons are basically useless because it's so easy to be disrupted from carrying out your slow attack, and every tiny little dagger can stun just as well as a great axe anyway so there's no point.

Why does From hate strength so much? Jesus fucking christ.

Yhorm's is good, I'll admit. But overall strength weapons are shit in DaS3. And this is especially true for PvE. Now, of course anyone can beat the game with whatever weapons they want, sure, but strengths are much less optimal when it's so much easier to just stunlock everything with straight sword R1 swings instead of just getting stunlock raped by puny hollows with daggers all the time.

All they needed to do was increase the hyperarmor windows. DeS had no poise and strength weapons were still viable because hyperarmor actually helped instead of only being active during a minute period of time.
>>
>>336707439
I'm not seeing it man. Of the four strength weapons I have used I haven't really had a problem with any. Butcher knife is fast and heals you, machete is just a worse version of yhorm's, no one expects the demon greataxe, and yhorm's machete is generally great.
>>
>>336707884
You're strictly speaking of PvP, no?

So I just finished Dark Souls : Prepare to die edition.
Fuck. What an adventure. I havn't feel these intense sensations in a video game for ages.
I've almost been discouraged at the beginning of the game, vs the gargoyles. I couldn't get the draconic sword, because I unintentionally attacked the undead merchant who sells a bow. But I could do it with my loved claymore, which I used throughout the entire game.
I'm so sad I finished it. It was so good.
>>
>>336707965
Not really. Just hit things once or twice, circle around and hit them again. Same way I used all my weapons. If anything they are pretty good for PVE because they can stun enemies just outside the weapons actual range which can come in handy.
>>
>>336689835
> And it's not like the bosses are any harder. They just have more health.
Which Let's Play of BB did you watch friendo?

My character is a man but ever since wearing Dancer's set I found it so beautiful I've never took it off and even started wearing a reversal ring.

Anyone else doing something similar?
