So what do you think /v/? Will BF1 topple down dark souls at last?
Rock Paper Shotgun is SJW shit
Don't bring that here
As someone who hasn't played DS3 yet, is it really a big allegory to the Vietnam war?
>comparing apples with pears
also "finally" ds3 just came out you faggots
>>337200431
No. It's Miyazaki's fanfic of the Catholic version of Revelations.
>>337200197
Why would you compare Dark Souls 3 to Battlefield 1?
>>337200197
>Battlefield 1 also features a nigger.
>Dark Souls 3 is racist.
>2) Demons don’t actually exist but World War One likely did
A criticism that most of the games media has hushed up is that Dark Souls 3 falls pretty short when it comes to realism. There’s no strong evidence for the existence of the Ashen One, and Lothric is still primarily considered to be mythical, with a huge lack of contemporaneous documentation.
>>337200750
This. They are nothing alike.

Pretty decent article. Liked the bit about AI and difficulty.
This is obviously satire you idiots.
No one is actually this stupid.R-right?
>>337201030
This is /v/. 90% of users here are stupid enough to think the article is real because of MUH SJW CLICKBAIT WEBSITE GAIZ!!11!+ONE1!
>>337200197
Need to stop bringing idiot click bait articles here. There entire point is to be stupid and grab attention that thoughtless web surfers would be interested in.
>>337201030
Sure, it's satire. But what the fuck is the point? This is the most retarded excuse of a 'news article' that I've ever seen.
>>337200197
what a fps has to do with an action rpgds is that right?
>>337201140
You're not giving him clicks with that pastebin link buddy
>>337201030This is what I have to tell myself every day
Ordinarily I would expect this to be satire, but then I read this guy's hyper light drifter review
>>337201030
It's not satire
John Walker is just a fucking moron with no taste.
He thinks Gone Home is as good as Myst
>>337200197
This john walker is fucking idiot, this isn't even funny
>>337200197
>world War One likely did
>likely
Why do SJWs try to revision history?
>>337201030
Well, it IS John Walker...
>Dark Souls 3 leans more heavily on allegories to do with the Vietnam War
>>337200829
>There’s no strong evidence for the existence of the Ashen One
That's the main character though??????????????????????
RPS is so shit now, its amazing how Walker fucked it all up.
>>337200197
>RPS
>clickbait shit
Every. Fucking. Time.
>>337200197
what the fuck is this dumb bf campaign? what the fuck does bf have to do with dark souls?
dice is trying way to hard to appeal to the casual crowd
>>337201550
When will we get to a point where the delusion and greed really seep though?
With something like "Does Bigfoot hate the PS4?"
>Create a WW1 game.
>Half the arsenal are experimental automatic weapons that barely made it into production by the time most of WW1 occurred.
>No trench charging, just a run-around-and-shoot game like EVERY OTHER DICE GAME IN THE PAST 5 YEARS,
>More primitive weapons, rather than swords acting as metaphorical helicopters, will likely see the player given a far more gritty and realistic experience.
>Battlefield 1 will very probably have first-person combat, while the Dark Souls 3 developers were only able to get as far as third.
>Whereas Dark Souls 3 is only the fourth game in its run, not including the Saturn’s The Mansion Of Hidden Souls. That means Dice have had nearly five times as many goes at practising making Battlefield games, and so are almost five times better at it.
>We also expect Dice to remember to keep opponents to the correct size, rather than the mismatched mess of scale discrepancies the entire Dark Souls series has featured. While the latter is likely to eventually be patched out of Dark Souls 3, it’s likely too late for the game’s reputation.
This is blatantly satire and fucking hilarious, fuck's wrong with you people
>>337201685
they'll probably have a game-mode that forces you to trench charge, at least I hope
>>337200197
>"FromSoftware took a rather naive step in their attempt to explore elsewhere, picking very obvious allegories with the Americano-Vietnam war as its central theme, presumably in the belief that this would have it stand out from the conflict history crowd."
This is earnestly the only time I have said this and meant it. What the FUCK am I reading?
>>337201030
>Its satire
>Its a character he plays
Please
>>337201694
This would be hilarious satireif people didn't legitimately think like that online. It's too close to how dumb some "journalists" are.
>>337200431
lol are you kidding me did I actually read that shit just now
Gaming journalism.
Playing Dark Souls 3
My grandfather teleports behind me
>"Hey Jim what are you doing"
>"Im killing some of those charlies at Firecong"
Hey children whats that sound
We look whats coming down
Dragon burns me with Napalm breath
>"Eh good luck son..."
>Son (that aint me)
Grandad leaves with tears in his eyes
It's infinitely more difficult to tell whether this thread is satire than the article.
>>337200750
To get clicks, why else?
>>337201440
History books are all written by white cis males. Can't trust them.
>>337201984
>>337201694
This is the most obvious shill article I've ever read. The only driving point of this article is that BF1 will be a better game compared to Dark Souls 3, when there's only one game currently out. The entire fucking article is a strawman.
Why is there even war any more? It's 2016, aren't we a little more grown up than that?
>TOPPLE dark souls 3 from the TOP
Hire a new writer.
>More primitive weapons, rather than swords acting as metaphorical helicopters, will likely see the player given a far more gritty and realistic experience.
Someone was payed to write this fucking drivel.
>More primitive weapons, rather than swords acting as metaphorical helicopters,
I don't know why this looks wrong to me, but this is some shit-tier writing

It's pretty obvious that this is just a dumb shitpost article done as a joke.
> most historians agree WW1 did happen
>comparing these two games
Literally every retard there is can be a "journalist" these days, right?
>>337200750
To make people mad and consequently talk about the article linking to their website. Just watch this post getting to 200+ replies and someone making a new one tomorrow
>>337202628

What happened to puns? They've clearly hit the rock bottom at this point.
>>337201030
>>337200197
Why are people putting FROMshit in such high regard? Is this the power of their meme games?
>>337201030
Rock Paper Shotgun lost everybody with taste long, long ago.
>>337200618
Fun fact: pears are closely related to apples.
This is more like comparing apples to chicken strips. There really is no comparison to be made. They are completely and utterly different; the only similarity is that they're both "food".
>>337201550
this one says its click-bait in the subtitle, op cut it out.
Tricked twice.
>>337200197
>FromSoftware took a rather naive step in their attempt to explore elsewhere, picking very obvious allegories with the Americano-Vietnam war as its central theme
DEEPEST LORE
>>337201747
>World War One is a surprisingly under-explored topic for video games, with the much more arcade-friendly World War Two: Axis Vs Allies proving the most fertile ground for gaming experiences.
>dark souls will be worse than bf1 because it's not realistic
Funny argument coming from people who base their entire thought process outside of reality
>>337200431
>is it really a big allegory to the Vietnam war?
where the fuck did you get that from?
>>337201335
>He thinks Gone Home is as good as Myst
Well that is an opinion that I didn't think existed.
>>337200197
>Dark Souls 3 leans more heavily on allegories to do with the Vietnam War
You can't just say things and have them be absolute truth

I'm pretty sure most of you actually believe the whole 'Support Trump' meme is actually for real too...
>>337201335
No he doesn't.
John hates Myst.
>>337204626
>he thinks it's just a meme
You're confusing your average memes for meme magic son, but I'd expect nothing less from a bernout.
>>337203919
The OP.
>>337204829
Yeah well he's a fucking faggot, don't listen to him
>>337201694
it is satire but it isn't hillarious not even humorous. He isn't going so far in the realm of exaggeration to make a poignant claim. Games get compared all the time with each other. It reads like a piece he was scrambling to write to make a deadline.
>>337203640
You can compare everything. Even bicycles with rhinoceroses.
You'll find out they haven't much in common.
