Why is this game so good again?

Epic thread, man.

you don't need to backtrack you ape

You're literally the cancer killing Souls games. You know why Dark Souls 3 has warping from the start and an uninspired, linear level design? Because faggots like you have the attention span of an 8-year old.

Backtracking through Blighttown only to unlock the shortcut to Firelink Shrine after staying in that hellhole was one of the best Souls experiences I've ever had. The hub actually had meaning and felt special because of it.

It takes like 2 minutes.

>he doesn't know the alternate route.

Blight town wasn't nearly as big a deal as it's made out to be.
>>
>>345082290
>alternate route
How would you even get back out through the depths route?
>>
>>345081864
This.

>>345081581
>>345080548
Also, if you enter through the Sewers and leave through blight town there's literally no backtracking.
>>
>going all the way down to ash lake and back up through blighttown to the comfyness of the blacksmith and firelink
One of the best game adventures I've had in years.

How do people this retarded even manage to function in society? Why are they not euthanized at the age of 9 months.

>Going all the way down to fight the witch
Was great
>Going back and looking up you will see whole Blight Town from beneath
That was quite an amazing experience

>>345083449
Fucking retards.

I enjoy backtracking as much as the next guy, but it was cancer in DaS1. Yes, it created some interesting moments like climbing back out of Ash Lake or getting lost in Tomb of the Giants, but the fact of the matter is that running into problems and massive inconveniences because of this system was never fun. It was shitty and we needed to move to more warping sooner.

there isn't any backtracking if you go in through depths and out valley of drakes

it feels kind of relaxing after that tough area, but it can feel tedious especially if you're replaying the game.

and there aren't really any perfect games, good games can have flaws.

More or less.

I'd put BB ahead of DeS and say DaS2 and DaS3 are equally shit though.

switch DS3 and DS2 and were gud

It's impressive that you can still get some easy (you)s off this 5 year old game

What's wrong about these games? They look better and look more fun.

I can get behind this. Though I think DaS3 was considerably better than DaS2.
I love em all though.

>it basically had both
>>
>>345087932

Most sane people do.
>>
>>345088053
Disappointed me too. From the look of things I was expecting a return to DS1 form in terms of world design, and although it was better than 2 it still didn't happen. Also, level-up maidens need to fuck off, it's so pointless and dumb to have to warp back to sit through 2 loading screens just to level up. I'm beginning to think the things that made DS1 so amazing were a fluke.
>>
>>345088202
>level-up maidens
Is there a reason they even did this? Was it some kind of weird character building shit or something or was there a design issue with players being able to level up wherever? I genuinely don't understand.
>>
>>345088202
>sit through 2 loading screens
The loading screens are hardly the problem. At least in DS2 the loadings screens take like 2 seconds, but the time leading up to them more like 10.
>>
>>345088425
DeS fags wanted the maiden in black again.

I'm a DeSfag and the last thing I wanted was some shitty MiB knockoff.

And then realize you forgot to ring the bell. At least that's what I'd do.

No.

for me it's:
DeS > DaS > BB = DaS3 >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> DaS2
>>
you forgot about

>get killed by new enemy you can't possibly know anything about
>respawn and beat enemy
>continue and find new enemy
>get killed by new enemy

rinse and repeat
trial and error bullshit
>>
Also DaS3 parry sucks, you can't react to an enemy, you need to guess.
>>
>>345090967
sounds like Nameless King.

When it looks like it's going to strike and when it strikes are two different things
>>
>>345082382
Theres nothing stopping you, its just a long painful trek.

My first playthrough I entered Blighttown the back way because I found the Valley of the Drakes entrance via Darkroot before entering the Depths. I eventually made it to the bottom of Blighttown and presumed the path up the other side was progress, it took me forever but eventually I made it to a ladder up into a new area.....

Only to be greeted with a locked gate. It was heartbreaking, I'd spent the better part of a day getting up there and lost 10s of 1000s of souls and now I had to go all the way back down.
>>
>>345090383
I can totally see that happening. Getting lost in DS1 was fun.

>>345090838
Never had that throughout all of DS1 and about half of DS2. I know I am crap at these games but if I can look down on you you seriously need to git gud.

>>345091173
Don't you need to jump down somewhere on the way from the depths to blighttown?
