it's a shame that demons souls is heavily outdated and poor in comparison to any of the souls games other than dark souls 2

the music in particular is quite awful

remember when they removed poise for a change and every shitter was losing their mind over that,
because they could not use their cookiecutter full havel straightsword build for the 3 time.
yeah I fucking wonder why the formular is so stale
>>
>>340021087
that all sound great

>>340021345
There's a difference between changing something and removing a mechanic that has been a rule of the game for two iterations. Next you're going to tell me SMNC was a great game because "The rules have changed".
>>
It's almost like people start getting tired of games when you make the same one over and over and over and over again in the span of approximately a year and a half between each release.

I got my fill with Demon Souls and Dark Souls, thank you very much. Couldn't finish Dark Souls 2 and couldn't be arsed to go play Bloodborne, Dark Souls 3 or any of the Dark Souls knockoffs, including the "IT'S [GENRE] BUT DARK SOULS."
>>
>>340021087
Wow, that is some downright PS1-tier MIDI shit. Synthesized music doesn't have to sound that obvious, it just takes some effort.
>>
>>340021926
To be fair dude, you should check out Nioh, it's definitely in its own when it comes to gameplay yet most people complain and say its a "Dark souls but too hard for me".

Also to be fair, Bloodborne was very different to the main games, and 2 was the most different in series I would say as well, and I like it for that reason.
>>
>>340021547
but when people found out, they didnt try to understand the change or deal with it,
they just started complaining how dead pvp is now and how the it was such a horrobile change.
You literally cant change anything about the soulsformular, because shitters will just complain about changes and praise muh DS1.
But I think From does know that, since this is the last DaS and BB was already different enough to be a "new" game.
But I am pretty sure they would be unable to release another "classic" soulsgame without either being increadably stale or starting unending shitstorms if they try to be inovative with their formular.
>>
>>340022085
I'm not going to deny that, Dark Souls 2 tried changing a lot of things and people think it's the "Worst" souls game, despite it being second best only to Demon's Souls if people just gave it a chance.

Although you have to admit, even if poise was removed, having a poise NUMBER in the game still despite it barely doing anything is just a kick in the balls, since you can easily say poise is broken now when punching heavy armors staggers them, but if it wasn't there, it might not have been the case since a lot of people kept saying "POISE IS STILL THERE".

>>340022321
yeah I dont know, what they should have done with the poisenumber. It seemed kinda unfinished to me...

2 was only different if you compare it directly to 1.

It feels like a blend of mechanics from DaS and DeS. Stuff like the reintroduction of proper death penalties, a central level-up NPC, and proliferate recovery items, as well as the dead end nature of many levels.
>>
>>340023094
And then DS3 kind of just relapses into a DS1 circlejerk with Bloodborne mixed in.
>>
I do. Glad they're moving on to something new.

I wish I would've played it back when it was at its height so I could've experienced the invasions, etc (b/c I own it and it's still sealed)
I wish I would've opened it but I lost it when I moved and ever since I found it I just left it there
Been playing Dark Souls 3 and I feel like a bandwagon faggot swinging my Demon's Greataxe
Life's a bitch boys

Lotta demon's souls talk lately.

People getting ready to do a playthrough together?
