>le dark souls is the best game eva made xD Am I a pro gaymur yet??? haha
Is Dark Souls a series for children and autistic people? I am legitimately intrigued.
>>337152016
The community just went to shit once the PTD edition came out
its a pretty good game
thanks for giving it more attention OP
>>337152016
That's weird I only ever meet turks and australians in dark souls
It's ironic that you think it's autistic, yet here you are on /v/ whining about it.
>>337152016
The simple answer is this:
It's a good game with a shit community.
>>337152016
Play it and decide for yourself.
Dark Souls series are fine. Demon Souls and Dark Souls are exceptional. The communities around these games have nothing to do with their quality. Its rare for dark fantasy to be done properly
>>337152321
More like your uncritical backpatting circlejerk was broken up by people with actual taste.
Literally every game and genre has autists and manbabies
You just need to ignore them
>>337152016
When a game appeals to the masses, the masses flood in. Dark Souls appealed to them with their marketing campaign, and thus gained a huge following of retards. Ignore those filth, it's an excellent game.
>>337153161
Name a single aspect of the Souls games that isn't broken in some way.
>mfw Dark Cucks think their games have exceptional level design
>>337153687
Woah, calm down there. I'm not one of those die hard souls fan boys. The game isn't perfect, it has its flaws like any other game. But either way it's a good series but with cancerous fans
>>337153687
He never said the game was flawless, lrn2readingcomprehension
>>337153687
I'm imagining you with your face literally 3 inches from your monitor breathing angrily.
>>337152016
Maybe you should try playing it instead of wasting your time shitposting on /v/
>>337153746
>Thief series
>exceptional anything
It was exceptional at burying itself as a franchise. Ironic that the Japs at SE drove the final nail into this shit western series
LOVING
EVERY
LAUGH
>>337152016
No, it just had the exact same thing happen as Minecraft, Undertale, and any other game that hit the mainstream.
>>337153870
Being flawed is fine. Being broken is something else.
Let's take Dark Souls 1's:
>gameplay
Broken by retarded AI and terrible collision detection.
>story
Standard "u da chosen one" storyline, with additional depth implied but never actually explored or even written. Storytelling is done via long NPC monologues/infodumps.
>sound
Sound engine used to be bugged and failed to play stereo sound properly. This was supposedly later patched (too little, too late).
>graphics
Muddy on consoles, one of the WORST ports out there visually on PC.
>performance
Let's not even start.
How is this not broken?
>>337152016
go back to shilling overwatch
>>337153427
>PC gamers
>people with actual taste
ppfffft bhahahahahhahaahhahaha, nice one
what bugs me is dmc4 and ninja gaiden II/sigma/black are way harder, way more demanding and way more "Hardcore" but nobody really talks about them
so I guess yes Dark Souls is the new "haha im hardcore" game, even though it's memory, builds and knowing when to roll(through a giant sword, mind you) from a telegraphed attack
I'm sure it's difficult, but unless you've beat ninja gaiden black on master ninja you're a fucking casual to me.
>>337154054
I'm imagining you with your face literally 10 centimetres from your monitor, breathing heavily as I ram my thick, veiny cock in and out of your pussy.
What's your point?
>>337153687
The OST ain't broke, that's for sure.
>>337152016
Yeah, it's obnoxious, but it doesn't keep me from enjoying the game. Before it was a response to all the "hurr artificial difficulty" but now you can't even give legit criticism or ask for help on boss even because 13 year olds will just bombard you with le git gud
>>337154225
They were destroyed!
>>337154225
Well, no. I don't see what's so horribly wrong with Dark Souls players. The worst thing they do is grief faggots online, which happens in every online game ever made.
I think this is just fags who don't play those games feeling left out and shitposting.
>>337154337
>Storytelling is done via long NPC monologues/infodumps.
>>337154423
That's because those games are ACTUALLY difficult, barring entry for less skilled players.
On the flipside, Souls is marketed as difficult, but is in reality made extremely easy by the AI (I'm discounting multiplayer here), so in turn it's played by many, many, many more people.
>>337153746
They do have exceptional skybox design. The actual levels are linear pathways fenced off with knee high walls and bottomless pits.
>>337154626
Have you actually played Dark Souls 1?

>>337154607
As far as I've noticed, people have given Dark Souls this reputation as, "DA HARDEST GAEM EVER MAYDE" when it's really not, and I know that bothers me a lot
>>337152016
I don't know, I just started my first souls game on sunday and like it so far. Judging a game by its fanbase is stupid, every fanbase has a fair share of cancer.
>>337152016
its designed to lure in casuals and make them feel like they are special, skilled gamers
>>337152016
>getting le triggered when someone you don't know likes a video game you don't like.
pic related is you.
>>337153746
Thief is garbage
>>337154762
>One NPC hours into the game (on your first playthrough) talks to you for 8 minutes despite every other NPC and dialogue being entirely optional and one minute long at best.
Wowie zowie, sure sounds like a dialogue dump heavy game for sure. You sure were right.
>>337154398
good job proving him right
>>337154762
Pretty much all of the story is read in items, even most of the NPC shit
>>337153746
Dark Souls has a great level design, also kill youself for using Thief as bait. Leave Garrett out of this.
>>337155435
You are talking about the backstory/worldbuilding. There's a difference.
>>337155392
explain how
>>337154859
I don't think anyone with any concept of gaming history thinks Dark Souls is "le hardest gaem evar xD" but it is refreshingly challenging for a modern AAA title.
>>337153746
>edgy grimdark shit
>shit combat
>no custom character making
>no lore
Sure showed me, PCuck.
>>337155221
You're garbage.
>>337154337
Confirmed for not even having played
>>337155770
Confirmed for not even owning a platform to play the game on.
>>337152016
The worst part about the community is the lore that the pull out of their asses and form based off an item description. They then go on to pretend that it has such a great and complex story filled with rich themes. Literally making shit up based off of item descriptions.
I love the games but come on.
>>337155221
1/10
Could do better
>>337154168
Low bait.
>>337152016
It's most definitely for people that enjoy the exact same game over and over and over again.
>>337156636
>repetition is bad!!!!11
It's necessary to git gud. No wonder you never did.
>>337152016
Is playing dark souls on PC a good idea?
>>337157283
I apologize in advance if this question triggers some autist because it is to casual of a question
>You actually made this thread
>I actually replied to it
Why are you such a dumb worthless cunt, OP?
>>337157283
Just get a conroller, it's more comfortable than keyboard+mouse (by a long strech).
