Solaire is the worst character in the series
I don't think the Witch of Izalith had that kind of face
>>127555767
Also dragons didn't look like bald chickens.
early for 4skins sucks.
Does anyone know how to cast custom bullets from casting location? I'm using General
Are you ready, /dsg/?
Then pick your favorite bosses and circle them red. OR, put score numbers for everyone (0=worst, 10=best)
>tfw cant choose between wearing a helmet or not
;_;
also suggest me better fitting gauntlets and leggings, I kind of dig the robe
Lately for Seath.

Post Gargs.
>get invaded multiple times in Earthen Peak
>all of them end up dying to poison
I mean, I get you have to look for me or bait me into enemies if you're having trouble, but I thought people already realized right away that you don't goddamn roll in that poison pool bonfire or hide in the poison pits for a prolonged period of time(why even???).
>this tumblr-tier shit is the official design of 4cunts :^)
These faggots literally look like anime wannabe-sephiroth treemen with spaghetti-legs. Did Fromsoft hire the shittiest "artist" from DeviantFart to come up with this abomination of a "design" and call it a day?
Seriously, just look at this nightmare - basically, everything worst in all the other bosses combined, they're also painfully easy (I mean, like, Pinwheel-tier of easy), all you have to do is dodge roll their slow shit attacks and watch for grab tells, or slap on havels and just faceroll everything. What the holy fucking fuck From, get your shit together. I just don't get it - how did they manage to make a boss this bad, hated THIS much by the entire community (/dsg/ included), and still haven't cut it the fuck away from the game? Just fucking HOW?
>>127556794
nice
>>127557164
Of course, I get the areas confused again. I meant Harvest Valley.
Anyone have the latest DS2 weapon tier list?
>>127557171

Our Queen Alexis is coming back for DS3, right?
Is this shit only for EU CEs ? All I see in US promo pics is some small DaS3 artbook.

Nah, I'll pass.
Do you think A team was planning bloodborne from way back? I just came back to my dark souls 1 to take a break from bloodborne. I just fought Manus and noticed how Bloodborne esque that boss is. How it moves and its aggression, even the spells look like arcane more than occult
>SOTFS Iron Keep
It feels like I'm in a fucking otaku convention, because there are weeaboos with katanas everywhere attacking in groups of at least two at every step I take
>>127556762
>>127559243
Late 2011: Dark Souls 3 was called Dark Souls 2, Bloodborne comes in so focus shifts on that. Dark Souls was a success so a new project which is the current Dark Souls 2 you know is started and directorship of that one changed in 2013.
Elements of what was going to be the original Dark Souls 2 still made it into current Dark Souls 2. Dark Souls 3 will be the intended story progression after Dark Souls 1 and Aldia content was created to patch in the new ending so Dark Souls 2 isn't complete nonsense.
>>127559243
BB development started when AotA was already in development.
Chester is basically a reference, because of his outfit and "rolling" animations and stuff.
>>127559243
I think they started on bb around the time AoTA was being made. Marvelous Chester looks like he was ripped right out of Bloodborne.
>>127559505
Oh and I forgot to mention production on Dark Souls 3 was paused until late 2013.
>>127559530
Chester, items as spells (silver pendant), Tracers being blade of mercy, ideas with town turned into beasts with lots of eyes that later became seperated to beasts and kin, Manus looking very similar to how they designed beast bosses in that game.
>>127558943
Yes, EU only.
>>127559243
Considering they also added Chester (who was in the game files even since the vanilla game and existed in early concept art) I'd say they had the idea of a Victorian setting game for a while.
>>127559405
can never go wrong with the best Goddess.
>>127559505
Wonder which areas got completed first before the director change, Undead Crypt feels like a DaS1 area, while Amana seems like it had a lot of detail put into it
>>127559669
And forgot to mention again that Old Hunters shares a lot of elements in Artorias of the Abyss such as bloat heads and an area from the original game presented as something else entirely.
It's like poetry.
>>127559734
Not exactly, elements of a 19th century character was shown but that was a Zweihander user.
>>127559845
I'm willing to bet that Yui designed Forest, Bastile and and the better non-linear areas but he's also bad and in charge of approving all multiplayer aspects of the game and okayed all encounters before it was gold.
Let's post some Sif.
>>127559505
>>127559505
Wasn't there an article that mentined that DaS2 started development as an open world game under Shibuya ? Wonder if the game was not a Dark Souls game and Shibuya left after being pressured by Bamco to turn it into one.
>>127559505
DaS2 went from continuing the storyline to a game made up of a bunch of hints as to what happened to everything from DaS 1 a few thousand years later.
Voting Heavenly Lightning as most bullshit spell of DS2.
>>127560107
That's how basically it was.
>Miya leaves to make BB
>Shibuya is assigned for DaS2
>Shibuya makes a game that's not Souls-y enough by Bamco/FROM standarts
>Tanimura then tries to salvage as much as possible using already created assets
So will Alexis return for DS3?
>>127560268
Probably, cause there is not such a spell in the game.
Heavenly thunder is just a lightning version of firestorm. Same for scraps of life.
I honestly hope that there's going to be tie ins to dark souls 2 in dark souls 3. Like the dlc was just to amazing to be left behind
>>127560559
Let's hope for all our sake that they we don't end up with an MGS4, I would take another completely standalone game with a few references here and there over someone trying to tie up the story of the souls series
>you'll never ride a fully grown-up Great She-Wolf Sif to fight 4 flying toilet paper rolls
Well thank you sincerely, Fromshitware.
Not sure if I look like barbarian elder or babbies first ds2 runthrough
>>127559856
Aren't there multiple Chester models (regular one, one with slightly different textures, and one without the coat and who wlields that sword) ?
Also, that sword seems to have been Shiva's in concept art. Wonder if there was a storyline where Chester stole it from Shiva . Also, Shiva has that cut Painted World event, and cut dialogues where he tells you to find the Chaos Blade for him and then behaves like Satsuki.
new footage when
What are some fun(and potentially good) weird weapon combinations? I'm talking about things like the Grand Lance + Heide Knight Sword.
>>127560057
Just don't post furry shit like you always do.
>>127560107
The current DaS2? Don't know. DaS3 aka original confirmed was dropped by Miyazaki recently when BloodBorne deal came through and Bamco wanted a sequel to their Souls game so DaS2 as we know it came to be.
>>127560146
Based Yui approved that, even if people like to defend him for taking over a project he didn't start. He approved that decision.
>>127560357
Nope.
>Miya works on Dark Souls 2
>Sony want a new game from From because Dark Souls did well, Bloodborne is concepted
>Dark Souls 2 production is on hiatus
>Artorias of the Abyss and a new sequel to Dark Souls headed by Shibuya is started.
>Old Dark Souls 2 is now DaS3 and continues barebones design development as Miyazaki core team works on BB and Shibuya core team works on new Dark Souls which is the DaS2 we all know
>Okano takes over the DaS3 project and DaS2 switches directors to Tanimura
>Tanimura changes the game or salvages it, approves all decisions and the final version of DaS2 before it is released
>Tanimura directs the three DLC areas
>DaS2 is released, Miyazaki becomes President of From
>Miyazaki finishes Bloodborne, works on Old Hunters and Dark Souls 3 full time again.
>>127560772
For all you could know the Chester as we know it might have been early Shiva in development.
>>127560985
>approves all decisions
more like "is forced to approve decisions because of time constrictions".
>>127560772
Voldo is that you?
>>127560559
Eleum Loyce might be somehow related to the Frigid Valley, but that's just based on the fact that they're both snow-covered areas.

Where did you get that kind of information?
>>127559505
>Elements of what was going to be the original Dark Souls 2 still made it into current Dark Souls 2
The DaS2 opening is most likely one since it shows the early concept art Drangleic Castle and the Lakeside area which was originally going to be the opening area of the game (they mentioend in the interview how what is now Things Betwixt was a mid-to-late game area where you faced dragons, probably the base of the Dragon Aerie, that was later repurposed as the opening area).
>>127559403
fuck that entire place
>LOL 2 INVASIONS
>let me just throw 150 alonne knights at you while I somehow place these archers in position even more annoying than in the base game
I could shit out a titanite slab while going through it
>>127560559
DS3 seems to be about the Fire/Dark cycle coming to an end. That would already be referencing SotFS' alternative ending where the Bearer of the Curse and Aldia seek another path aside from ascending the throne.
I really hope Dark Souls 3 isn't complete unmitigated shit like 2 was.
Any chance of getting full eye orbs?
>>127560979
Dual uchigatanas is probably your best bet. Dual longswords also is amazing at stunlocking.
>>127561846
Did you not seet NT footage ? Full Eye Orb was in.
>>127561846
>>127562035
Full Eye Orb was in DaS2 alpha build as well.
But it's probably in DaS3.
>>127562035
The catch seems to be that the number of invaders possible will correspond to the number of coop phantoms summoned. Could be fun.
>>127561138
Pretty sure soul memory and the final stat systems were approved by him with over 6 months to spare dude because it was different in stress testing. All Souls series games that have had stress tests were from 4-7 months before the game is released and it's evident the MP and stat systems were different and closer to Dark Souls 1 back then.
They really did have time to balance the game to his liking, and he was happy with it until fan feedback and that's the truth.
DaS1 had less of a development time dude than Tanimura's time on DaS2 dude, though that isn't fair because Miyazaki worked on the Souls game previous to that one too. Then again, Tanimura had two Souls game to emulate in front of him.
Accept it.
>>127561491
DaS3 starting in 2013?
https://www.vg247.com/2015/06/18/dark-souls-3-bloodborne-development-teams-pc-ps4-xbox-one/
If you're refering to Miyazaki working on DaS2 (or a Dark Souls title rather) it was from a 2012 Japanese article before AotA was announced that DaS2 was rumoured to be starting its development.
>>127561758
It was refering more to ideas that Miyazaki wanted in Dark Souls 1 that were either cut in DaS1 like the spider hollows or a stronger focus on the dark.
>>127562108
That's good.
I really hated DS2. Can't wait for an actual spiritual successor to the original.
>>127562108
hopefully no more cracked shit
>>127560559
Considering there was DaS2 equipment / spells in 3 they might add small nods to it. Wonder if the Aldia ending in SotFS was added specifically to lead into DaS3 .
Should I buy Dark Souls 3 when it comes out or should I wait a year for it to be re-released with better graphics and dilute the entire playerbase?
Goddamn this game is slooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooow after playing Bloodborne for a bunch. My dragoon is still pretty fun, though. Finishing every enemy with a jump attack.
>>127562170
>Pretty sure soul memory and the final stat systems were approved by him
Yeah but those are not real problems. Not for me or for someone who doesn't have autism, at least.
>oh, it's not like the previous game, it's new and I hate it

>>127562224
Enjoy your handholding system.
>>127562402
No new consoles coming out so get it on PC and buy the DLC friend.
>>127560732
Why is it so hard to look like a barbarian, or bandit in a Souls game?
>>127562185
it will be good unlike dark souls 2, the movement isnt floaty and much more responsive and stiff but it's more like demon souls and that's fine
and movesets are like dark souls 1
it's going to be a great game
>>127561846
>>127562108
It was confirmed by Miyazaki.

All your answers are in that same article.
>If you were worried that Dark Souls III would be shifting toward Bloodborne’s bell summons, not to worry; it will have the standard summoning system found in Dark Souls and Dark Souls II, and will use soul level for matching, not soul memory.
>New Game+ will look more like Dark Souls II than other games, with new weapons, items, and reconfigured enemy locations and placements to keep the surprises and exploration elements fresh in Dark Souls III. Of particular note is that bonfire ascetics will not be returning, so players will be unable to artificially + zones.

>>127563064
I wonder if they'll split online matchmaking by NG cycle as well, seeing how you have NG+ exclusive gear.
>>127562939
That was mentioned in the digital issue article. Apparently tail will be removed due to negative feedback. Excuse the font as it got kinda fucked up when I exported the page from the pdf.
>>127563252
That would be fucking dumb even if there are such things. Even DaS2 team noticed how fucking stupid that was.
>>127563312
Makes me think if Miyazaki really sat down one day and started playing DaS2 Scholar and pointing out shit he didn't like.
>>127563312
People have negative opinions about tail cuts? I can't imagine any
>>127563504
Seath's and Kalameet's have a lot of complaints everywhere. Even here.
>>127563504
Don't know. I believe the only people who send direct feedback to From are the Jap players, but I imagined they liked shit like that since MH is so popular and it has tail cuts as well.
>>127563469
probably yes, he must have picked up things he liked and tried to put them in DaS3, like stat allocation
>>127563064
I bet they have multiple purposes for Boss Souls as well.
Can't wait to have to go to NG+ to dual wield the frigid dancer weapons for the cosplay.
>>127563124
That's all I've got from that one, no reverse image search so looks like someone from 4chan when the Souls community wasgoodtranslated it and no one re-uploaded it. Anyone got the finished version?

Jumping to conclusions already?
>>127560550
Scraps of Life is pretty bullshit though. It's like the AoE spells but with none of the downsides.
>>127564436
Under 23% is the max stamina recover speed. Then it's 40 or 41. So no, not really.
>>127564293
Will try if I get rekt, but thanks.
>>127562545
>movesets are like DS1
Except that's not a good thing. Did you even play Dark Souls 1? Half the weapons have complete garbage movesets and include stupid shit like stumbling.
>>127564753
I don't even know why he's happy about that, he must be a pve only player. Nobody even swings their weapons in pvp in das1, that's a death sentence unless it's a falchion.
>>127564550
Her butt can't belong to a guy.
>>127557370
did they seriously say they would do that?
>>127564873
Swinging a falchion means free heal for the opponent.
Well I feel retarded. Apparently you have to set Dark Souls 1 to beta mode on Steam to connect with basically anyone.
>>127562545
>Movesets are like dark souls 1
But that's wrong at all, have you even compared the movesets of weapons like longswords, hand axe, etc that we'e seen in Dark Souls III to the movesets in Dark Souls I?
They're not Dark Souls I movesets I can tell you that, the weapons are closer to Dark Souls II movesets but with different timings between swings/stabs.
>>127565337
No.. it's the other way around. The beta is outdated and should be removed by from.
>>127565548
That makes zero sense. The regular version was a ghost town and when I set it to beta there were immediately fucktons of messages all over and I got invaded in five minutes.
>>127565112
I haven't seen this butt
>>127565796
You just restarted your IP pool.
>>127566073
The regular version was a ghost town for literally three days, with the same two messages unmoved for all that time. How the fuck did I suddenly do that?
>>127565796
I think you just got lucky with your bootstrap nodes. During the Steam transfer the ptde beta was used to test the Steamworks matchmaking. The normal version was still using GFWL. Once they went Steamworks only, the beta version had no purpose. From seems to have abandoned the PC version again, evidenced by the existence of the new namecrash bug they refuse to fix, and the fact that you can still use the beta version.

GUYS I THINK I NEED HELP
after a few minutes playing stofs i get this message "lost connection to game server. Switching to offline mode" i already did the forward ports thing but it seems like it didnt work, can you help me?
>>127566917
This happens every Tuesday because of that Steaming turd.
Who else genuinely prefers Bed of Chaos over 4shits?
Like, Bed of Chaos at least has a bit of creativity and challenge behind it, and can be killed with whatever. But 4skins is a retarded DPS race, which is something that really shouldn't be in a souls game which is based around 80% skill and maybe 20% equipment, although it can technically be 100% skill. Maybe it's not the worst boss in the series, but is definitely the worst of DaS1.
So, what do you think of it, /dsg/, and how would you have improved it?
>>127566451
>>127566413
Don't you get the same kind of ass with Loyce Leggings?
>>127566681
>weight
Nice meme.
You have no idea what you're talking about.
>>127567083
He's right though. It's no coincidence that a lot of people have felt this. They're overly smoothed and don't give a good indication of startup, swing and recovery. Most likely because From relied too heavily on the mo-cap.
How am I supposed to defeat the guy in the first pilgrim of the dark dungeon with the small sword? What the fuck.
>>127567083
>you have no idea what you are talking about
mind to explain me why?
one of the major complaints everyone has about dark souls 2 is that weapon animations nearly have no weight to them, and you can easily see that weapons in dark souls 2 feel really floaty and light
>>127567024
i have this problem since five days ago
Don't forget about the game, /dsg/ ~
>>127566253
But the beta and the normal version connect to the same players right? What exactly is the difference nowadays?
>>127567318
Half of the bosses on that pic are trash.
>>127567550
have another one then.
How do you think the fight with this guy will be ? He seemd to be a giant from the trailer, so identical to the Giant Lord with that dogshit camera ?

They should. I doubt they are still updating the beta version so the normal version should be more up to date. Sometimes I see these weird error messages that a player could not connect, I suspect it might be because of some incompatibilities between the beta and the normal version.
>>127567620
I guess. Big bosses are always the most underwhelming. However it would be cool it you had to fight him in a Shadow of the Colossus style, though.
>>127567232
DaS1 animations have very much exaggerated weight to them though. Sometimes it feels like you swing not a sword but an actual fucking weight. Never understood why people liked it so much.
>>127558616
Fact
>The 4 kings artist got a ton of attention from Autismanon getting B T F O'd on here, so much that her views increased by the thousands overnight and she started getting work due to it for other games and a few book covers that made wide public release
Not naming any names, but you guys can check it out if you really want to take a look.
The autist here actually helped 4 kings take off lol
>Have to play through the game 3 times for knight's honor achievement
>>127567262
this "weight" argument is very broad, it's more like a feel thing. Some would say you're just reaching hard.
>>127567965
It might have been the download that occurred when I switched to the beta version then, idk. Necessary patch that didn't automatically download?
>>127568123

all of my what
pffffffffffft~ dude you high or smth?
>>127568070
That's what an animation is supposed to do. It's an exaggeration so it's easier for the player to read.
>>127568123
>her views increased by the thousands overnight
What views
The cunt was just shitposting here, spamming its terribly made "art", it didn't even have a gallery or anything of sorts.

WHAT
Dude stop pls. Please just stop, it's embarrassing.
>>127568070
And then you've got DaS2's motion capture with someone swinging a light piece of wood making ultra great swords look light.
Dark Souls 1 animations are better.
>>127568123
>Not naming any names, but you guys can check it out if you really want to take a look
Checked out. Found nothing. I can only see professional artists' work getting featured, and a bit of Menas.
Am I doing something wrong? Care to provide links?
If not, you're telling bullshit.

>>127568612
Hello reddit same poster, let the guy reply.
>>127567620
There seems to be plenty of giant bosses in DaS3. Hope there will also be fights with agile, human sized bosses. Really liked the BB fights against Gascoigne, Gehrman, Maria or Orphan.
>>127568123
...the fuck I just read?

>>127568612
>>127568779
Didn't that person you're crying about constantly get tons of Dota cosmetic money or something?
Just for clarification, DaS2 poise is only good for hyper-armor, yeah?
I hate to stop being fashionable, but I'm getting tired of being combo'd to death by everyone and their mother when they decide to invade my hollow ass. I want to know if a bit of poise stacking will help out right now.
>>127567232
>don't give a good indication of startup, swing and recovery
It's ok to say that you don't like mo-cap, but don't make shit up.
Aside from the weird jumping attacks and knockdowns, the animations are fine.
>>127568890
The fights against giant beasts and old ones were SHIT, though.
>that fucked up camera angle
>those retarded hitboxes
>every single one of them has a flailing attack
>it fucks you up more than bed of chaos flailing
>>127569051
You can poise through things, but nothing can combo you for more than 2 hits, just mash roll.
>>127555495
Who here /mouse and keyboard/?
Any other Europoors keep getting invaded/invading South Americans? The last 5 red orbs I've used (and the last handful of invasions) have all been Mexicans and Brazillians. I'm surprised I'm not fighting invisible people or getting killed from 50 feet away by someone standing still.
Finally got the SOFTS Edition of Dark Souls II.
Having beat the original version of the game (unpatched) on PC when it first came out, but never bought the DLC because I hated it so much comparing it to Demon's Souls and Dark Souls.
After (I assume) tons of patching, the game finally feels fun to play in PvE. The changes to the first few areas (ToFG, HToF, Wharf) were pleasant in the SOFTS edition.
Does anyone know why the game feels "better" now? My major complaint with the game back when it first came out was that you got insta-stunlocked in for at least two hits by any type of weapon (PvE or PvP), compared to Demons/Dark where after 1 hit if it didn't stagger enough you could just roll out. It feels just like Demons/Dark in PvE now. Haven't tried PvP yet.
Making a spellcaster build (magic/pyro) as my first run of SOFTS. Am I making a mistake?
>>127569182
>Locking on to big guys
>>127569242
>tfw bought a controller for this game
>ended up using my keyboard+mouse anyway because I can't get used to it
I do like DS1 with a controller better than keyboard+mouse, simply because rebinding keys on there is pretty much impossible.
>>127569051
Poise exists to counter R1 spam
A poisemonster can tank 10 R1's from a rapier and not stagger BUT unlike DS1 poise can also be countered mostly by strong attacks and rolling attacks.
>>127568593
You retards need to make up your minds.
The argument used to be that DaS2's animations are bad because they're exaggerated with too much startup and recovery.
>>127569374
I could lock on Vendrick and even on Sin that flies around like a fucking piece of shit and the camera doesn't go apeshit. Fuck off.
>>127568686
I don't really think that DaS2 animations are bad, but that's not the point. The point is, DaS1 animations are stupid. I thought they were stupid first time i played the game on PC release, i think so now. It's especially bad on maces and axes, there is no need for a wind up animation so fucking slow and long. Having slow windup with a clear indication of where and when you are going to attack is the last thing you want to do in battle.
>>127568123
umm... what? this transsexual alien scum suicided.
>>127569440
Just saying it makes a lot of big guys easier. Especially Dickbeast. No need to get humid now
>>127569648
Of course it does. But that shit needs to go. The game needed more of Orphan of Kos and less of Cleric Beast.
>>127569621
>>127569242
Me. Why would anyone not use kbm for a souls game on PC?
Tfw bought PS3 and DeS and have to use a fucking godawful claw grip because i prefer to fight without lock on and 4 way rolls are terrible.

>bringing back durability
I don't understand why durability is an important part of the game.
>>127569805
What bosses do you think they'll reuse from BB (you know it's inevitable) ?
My guess is this guy. He looks like he came from the Dark Souls universe, anyway, and they showed a bunch of Hollow church people in one of the trailers. Would expect some Hollow saint they worship to be fought as a boss.
>>127569785
I'm sure they'll less giants this time around.I actually liked Laurence's fight, two lock-on points helps with the camera immensly
>>127569979
>>127569805
Do you have those old movesets that were datamined from the files before the dlc? Like that espada ropera fencing move?
Found some neat DS statues.
>>127569979
>>127569426
That's exactly the floatiness. Just look at the DaS2 side, the character is barely using his body to swing the giant club.
>>127570141
>>127569976
Same reason why health is an important part of the game.
>>127570225
Rubber rod in the mo cap studio boys
>>127570225
>Just look at the DaS2 side, the character is barely using his body to swing the giant club.
Which is kind of the point
Weapons are not nearly as heavy as DS1 would make them out to be.
>>127569426
Ugh, every time I see a comparison between 1 and 2, it reminds me how ugly 2 is.
>>127569182
>>127569391
Hmmm, so I have yet to hit any meaningful poise breakpoints. I've been stunlocked to death by a 1HR1 spam from a shitty BR and his kukri-like curved sword.
>>127569982
Hope they add a Micolash type boss, obsessed with the Abyss, that you chase through a Dark Chasm type Maze.
>Ahh, Manus, or some say Anus... Do you hear our prayers?
>>127570290
>>127570225
He is, you're not noticing it because it's 60fps. He readies his weapon really fast above his nape, and swings it like a baseball bat. Granted, no human would be able to do that, but he's not human.
>>127568890
>more knight bosses
Oh boy here we go again...
>>127569353
>Making a spellcaster build (magic/pyro) as my first run of SOFTS. Am I making a mistake?
It's fine. However, you need to know that all enemies in the DLC areas have an added layer of resistance against spells and spells only. You need to either stack more spell casts or rely more on your melee weapon. Elemental damage from your melee weapon isn't affected by the spell resistance, only the general resistances of the enemies.
>>127569890
So instead of providing beliavable proofs (links, photos, whatever) you continue to rant about some mysterious "autismanon" and post fake screenshots.
Okay. You may fuck off now.
>>127570225
To be fair, DaS2 Zweihander feels very weighty with its attacks. I do enjoy how the character moves with the momentum of the blade.
>>127569998
>I'm sure they'll less giants this time around
See>>127568890
Apart from the boss that was leaked by The Know, all the bosses that were officailly revealed in trailers/gameplay footage are giant humanoids/creatures, and I'm sure there will be more of these.
>>127570225
>is barely using his body
The character does a 360° degree turn.
Wanking off to midgit miyazaki furry porn made you blind apparently.
>>127570631
He'll now complain that the DaS2 Zwei doesn't make the screen shake to demonstrate the heaviness.
>>127570314
>>127569471
Are you seriously arguing realism here? In Dark Souls?
All the enemies swing slow and exaggerated as balls as well because the entire game is about cues, timing and prediction. The weapons have that much windup and followthrough to feel more powerful and to give human enemies decent time to react to them with other movements that are necessarily slower because of PvE. This is a game where swords get up to fucking 50 kilos anyways, who the fuck cares?
>>127570468
How many bosses will there be in DaS3?
>>127570713
No, you are.
Literally your entire argument is "DS2 doesn't look realistic (like DS1)"
>>127570668
Oh. Well I'm okay with giant bosses too. I wonder how many bosses they'll have compared to 2 or Bloodborne though?
>>127570768
>>127569242
I prefer KB+M on DS2. Don't need to master the controller claw grip to turn the camera while running.
Default keybindings are shit though. Had to unbind almost all of the mouse inputs.
>>127570826
If you are to believe The Know's leak, they said 15 new bosses /45 new enemeis, with this number not counting returning bosses/enemies.
