Skyrim
>>340933881
monster hunter
>>340933881
The Witcher 3
>>340935607
Yes.
>>340935961
As much as I hate to admit it. The combat really just boils down to "wait for opponent to attack, then counter".

Your favourite videogame.

Git Gud scrub
Its not the best but you can get used to it and the game envelopes around that fact.
>>340933881
Whatever your favorite game is, which is most likely Nier, so yes, there is.
>>340933881
Dark Souls 3
>>340936889
It's repetitive and without much creativity

Undertale

Dark souls is the shittiest game. I can't believe you all fell for that meme. Smh

Most games?
I don't think Souls combat is GREAT, but christ almighty I could name just about any ARPG that preceded it as an example of worse combat.

Pokemon red/blue/yellow

blunderborne

I would take pkmn r/b over das
Any Elder Scrolls
>>340938180
Yeah but how many of those are completely interchangeable in terms of net effect
>>340933881
Bound by Flame
Cursed Crusader
>>340938517
Irrelevant? It keeps gameplay fresh
Net effect? Most combo games have a point system that increases based on creativity and non-repetitiveness.
>>340936889
and that doesn't make it better shithead
Demon's Souls
>>340937787
OP here
My favorite game is actually Thief Gold, what do I win?
>>340938671
Some do.
Compare DMC, though, which doesn't really feature many dial-combos at all but makes heavy use of utility special attacks.
Just having different animations for "-10HP, +0.25s enemy stunlock" does not a quality combat system make.
DaS has a decent combat system. The lack of heavy frame cancels and i-frames makes attacking much riskier and the experience more conservative and defensive, which I'm not personally a fan of but which by no means precludes depth or quality.
The pvp enthusiasts like to think it's the deepest combat ever but it really isn't. They'd be better off picking up one of the current fighting games that suits their taste and playing those instead to get their competitive fix. Souls and Bloodborne combat give you a little more options than most action adventure RPGs but there's really nothing special there to get excited about as far as the combat goes. These games have some nice weapon, enemy, armor, and environment design though. That's what I play them for.
>>340933881
Easy. The entire series, in fact.
>>340938367
NEVER EVER
Is there a shitpost worse than Dark Souls 1 hate?
>DmC Donte
Don't know if worse or not
>>340933881
every game ever made
>>340933881
Yes.
It's called "All Of Them™".

Yes it does, because the idea of pressing the same, regimented bullshit on a single button is awful; and DaS does little to improve on that.
Risk in that game is just getting stunlocked because the main gameplay design is overwhelming the player.

DFO has better gameplay than DaS, and it's 2.5D.
