Give 1 reason why this game is better than Dark Souls 2 without mentioning muh atmosphere or soul memory.
You can't
Demon's Souls doesn't have shitty level design.
>>340441178
Demon's Souls has more varied and charismatic boss fights.
The guard break is actually useful
Demon's Souls doesn't have shitty armor and weapon design
Better level design, faster gameplay, most memorable bosses, Maiden in Black, second half doesn't suck ass.
Better level design
Better bosses
>>340441394
The only well designed levels are boletaria castle and tower of latria. the rest of the levels are shit
>>340441464
The only memorable bossfights are king allant, flamelurker and man eater. the rest are easy as fuck
muh atmosphere
>>340441512
You listed the aspect on which DS2 is vastly superior to every other game
Congratulations failure
>>340441564
>Valley of defilement
>the mines
>The second part of the shadow lands
>Good level design
more than half the level design is shit
>>340441178
two reasons: stingrays and cthulu head guard mages
>>340441631
Hard doesn't equal memorable, dumbass.
>>340441631
>only difficult bosses can be memorable
>>340441781
>>340441801
It's hard to remember a boss I can kill in 10 seconds
DaS2>DaS3
DeS is good because its the most simplified souls game. The level structure makes it easy to pick up and play. Its easy to get your level high enough to steam roll the game. It should have a vita port
>>340441876
Must be hard to remember Dark Souls II bosses then.
>>340441772
>cthulu head guard mages
Well, you got me there. The rolling skeletons were cool too
>>340441876
>I swear I'm not a shitposter!!!!
>>340441876
Almost all of the archdemons were both incredibly easy AND really memorable

Level design
World Building
NPCs
Spell System
Criticals(riposte/bs) functioned better in general
Free invasion system
The only thing Demon's Souls did worse than the following Souls games was the convoluted upgrade shit.
Unlike Dark 2, it doesn't drag on forever, and the plot is nice and comprehensible.
>>340442120
>Spell System
You mean the spell system that was completely broken and made mages basically easy mode?
>>340441178
Soul Memory is amazing. The only people that don't like it either die too much or want to gank new players as twinks.
>>340442101
He's right, though.
Is demon's souls' online still available?
Can you still pvp or summon allies?
It doesn't feel slowed down and floaty for one thing.
Also world/character tendency was a pretty cool system, imo.
Also just the small attention to detail. Like how magicians didn't like clerics and vise versa.
Also you could play as a boss.
And the game was actually good.
>>340442261
extremely rare
>>340442235
>gank new players as twinks
I don't see the problem here, specially considering you have to beat a large part of the game as a lvl 1. You earn the ganking rights

You people are the problem with this game's fanbase.
>>340441178
Tower of Latria alone puts DS2 to shame
>>340442321
At least it's still alive, I should try to play this game ASAP.
>>340442428
There's a difference between easy and broken
>>340441178
Less floaty. (still really floaty)
>>340442342
>you have to beat a large part of the game as a lvl 1.
aka
>you have to run past everything
No
>>340442462
Not with the DLC included
>>340442261
I got invaded at the Shrine of Storms the other day, and got summoned by the Old Monk. It clings stubbornly to life.
>>340441178
Why, do you need a valiadation for your purchase of DS2?
Still mad that you won't ever play DeS?
I really don't understand why you keep making these threads.
>>340442669
I was invaded by the same guy twice in Latria 2 and got someone on the old monk when I played it a few months ago, but other than that I didn't meet anyone.
>>340441178
the only people who think DeS is bad compared to the rest of the series are the kids who started on DaS. most of them don't even know king's field.
>>340442786
>>340442985
I beat DeS 8 months before the release of DS1. Get bent.
>>340443040
Sure you did.
Dark Souls 2 should've just been a boss rush game. The map layouts are seriously fucking terrible.
the movement is much better in des
>>340441178
>sequel makes a few mechanical improvements
>lol its better
Guess you're easy to please, a publishers wet dream.
>>340443137
The bosses are terrible as well.
Black world tendency AKA Ferguson riots mode

As I said. Get bent.

You can easily get one of those on the net or from your friends.

>samefagging this shamelessly
>with Regular Shit of all things
Didn't expect less. Go ahead and edit the (you)s in gimp, though.
The way Dark 2 plays feels even more Jank than the series already was. The animation of the characters look stiff and floaty at the same time. The controls feel floaty and not nearly as tight as DeS. The level design is worse and makes no seance,and would have been better with archstones.
>>340441178
item burden
>>340444010
Sure lad, I just asked my friend for his password so I could BTFO a virgin from a chinese image board
>>340442623
That cause Demons souls didnt need DLC to improve it , I like DS2 but thats just a cop out
DLC wasnt free unless you bought scholar
>>340442345
>implying you can have an avatar on a website with no user registration or profile system
it's literally impossible. no, posting an image with your post on an IMAGEBOARD is not an avatar.

Item burden is shit and you know it,anon.
I so glad that shit is gone

It's a fucking squid head you goddamn faggot nigger not everything related to the sea has to do with lovecraft
>>340444335
wrong, item burden is one of the best parts of the entire series. anyone who disagrees with me is a butthurt casual faggot.
>>340444337
>>340441178
Level Design
Unique boss encounters
Areas that don't look like they were smeared with one texture over and over
A reason to get from point A to point B
No one has mentioned how DeS still has the best OST, and DaSII has the worst.
Sinh and Sir Alonne from the DLC have decent themes but suffer from no live orchestra.
As for the rest, the level design and bosses are better, as well as the story/characters.
I disagree that the gameplay is better in general, as DaSII is largely an improvement over its predecessors with regards to combat.
>>340444450
Give me one reason why. One
>>340444542
>DS2
>Worst OST
>https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=alTQiC6hhGc
You take that back
>>340444572
because it makes players have to think about the equipment they are bringing into an area, too much equipment means you can barely loot anything new you find, your gear doesnt go into a MAGICAL FUCKING DIMENSION WHERE IT BECOMES WEIGHTLESS
you literally cannot argue against it unless you are a whiny babby casual who can't handle difficulty.
>>340444572
The idea is that you have to plan in advance and think about what kind of things you might need etc. It doesn't really work that way since your gear wont be THAT heavy and all other utilities don't weight much.
>>340444750
The DLC bosses have pretty good music, and I did mention two of them. The main game's music is largely forgettable and often too quiet to even hear.
And you can't deny that the lack of a live orchestra performance seriously hurts the quality compared to DeS and DaS.
>>340444798
Sounds more like busy work to me. Going back and forth to the nexus and back is just bothersome, not difficult.

Shame on you
>>340445094
Alright, fine, maybe it is about as good as DaS but still suffers from being sampled.
DeS music is on another level entirely though. I won't budge on that.
>>340445376
It's just 2 reasons nigger. If you can't conjure anything else the game is inferior
>>340441759
>literally any part of Dark Souls 2
>good level design
He didn't say good, he said better. Demon's Souls is definitely better.
>>340445470
>sampled
What do you mean by this? not much of a tech savyy
>>340445560
Be fair buddy. Lost Bastille is well-designed and the DLC levels are at least competent.
>>340445650
It means the music is created in software, as opposed to a live performance. DeS and DaS had the latter.
Haven't played DaSIII or BB yet so I don't know about those.
>>340445352
You dont need to farm grass if you are skilled enough at the game to not get hit by every enemy you encounter, anon. Apparently you aren't.

not him but youre retarded
I like a few tracks from DeS but they are OBJECTIVELY the worst souls tracks, while Bloodborne objectively has the only good ones
>>340441178
>Give me reasons for something
>expect those reasons I can't comprehend and/or disagree with.
It's time to stop posting.
>>340446432
>objectively
DS1 had the worst OST overall. DeS boss themes weren't terribly exciting, but they set up an atmosphere and were more original than the Gregorian shit from DS1.
>>340446721
It has nothing to do with originality, DeS music is objectively the worst in both mechanical execution and quality
meanwhile bloodborne is actually well composed and has a real orchestra instead of synth drums and mickey mouse chanting
