Point down

There's a reason it's one of the most used ones. Even when people know it isn't deserved, they still get mad(see: every invader post complaining about gank squads who point down).

Up the quality and lower the resolution, it's a bit painful to look at

But yes, they're completely braindead at times, and most often will straight out rush you with a flurry of R1s, disregarding safety. It's actually a bit hilarious if you're lugging around an ultra weapon at +10 because you can kill them with one combo as they run into you

It's a fun little thing for a little while (with the Old Hunter's expansion), but Dark Souls (any given title, not just 3) has so much more replayability. Not to mention, not a lot of things in Bloodborne are very well thought out and it can be tacky sometimes. I wouldn't and didn't buy a PS4 for Bloodborne in spite of it apparently being one of the PS4's major selling points.

it's possible, but you need to get a bleed build going and get good at dodging her with the estus limit. it's also a bad idea to summon anyone because the health buff will just fuck all of you over unless you've got good summons who are prepared to fight her at low SL.

Yeah, I was hefting along the Chaos Blade for that bleed as soon as I got in. I concur, summoning fucking bloats her to hell. The bare limit should be 1 Phantom. I was already uncomfortable with both of us going in there, but when I saw that we were doing it early I practically gave up all hope.

In Bloodborne, this problem was pretty widespread on small, fast weapons. The worst culprits were saws, which had a stubby model when untricked and ideally would have had minimal reach, but had an enormous hitbox that extended well beyond its model, giving it more than double the reach visible.

It ironically made the tricked form, which gave up DPS in favour of reach, completely worthless but it was no coincidence that the Saw Cleaver was the poster-weapon of the game, one of the starting weapons, and also aggressively better than literally everything else in pve. The combination of oversized hitboxes giving it huge range, a mindlessly mashy moveset and ridiculous high dps for next to no stamina cost meant you could steamroll the game by spammning R1, facetanking and chugging vials.

Unsurprisingly, straightswords in DaS3 work exactly like the Saw Cleaver did and are every bit as horrendously effective in pve. They also, unsurprisingly have a hitbox every bit as terrible.

tl;dr: fromsoft intentionally gives misaligned and oversized hitboxes to the weapons they know players will gravitate to, in order to create an easymode for casuals that just want to blow through their game.

Huh, that's a pretty nice color scheme.
>>
>>146715179

Does no one know how to fucking do feints anymore? I mean ffs. If you're playing a weapon with good running R1's like that you've gotta know when to literally just run at a guy and roll, or do a U-turn where you run straight at a guy and then 180 and run back without even attacking, or do a curly-Q to bait them to attack so you move just outside of their range but 360 around while close enough to counterhit them in the middle of their attack.

I mean, this is probably all because the game is still relatively young, right? Like, how long is it going to take before I can expect to run into good (or at least decent) players that at least have solid fundamentals when I do SL120 pontiff duels? Just saying, I feel your pain, anon.

>>146719704
I rank it best in the series because it's evident Miyazaki put his heart into it. The setting is refreshing, the lore is great and plenty gothic, the transforming weapons is an interesting mechanic that adds depth to the combat, and the setting oozes atmosphere while still having an air of mystery and horror. The game getting more twisted as you go along was sublime.

Demon's Souls has 3 good levels: 1-1, the Tower of Latria, and the Shrine of Storms. The mine level and Valley of Defilement are both awful, boring, and lowpoints in the game.
Dark 1 suffers the same problem. Whereas Dark 3, Bloodborne--- and yes, even Dark 2--- are consistent in fun factor, Dark 1 drops in quality greatly the minute you beat Ornstein and Smough. The worst offenders are Tomb of Giants and Demon Ruins. It feels like From rushed the ending of that game to get it released on time, or they got sick of working on it, or something. The bosses become lazy as well. Is there anyone that doesn't consider Bed of Chaos as the worst in the series? I haven't met any.

All 5 games are excellent and worth a playthrough, but you either have a narrative strong enough to grip the player throughout, have a suffocating atmosphere that envelops the imagination, or throw in enough variety with the gameplay to keep things fresh and interesting. Bloodborne's only real complaint is the lack of armor/weapons to tinker with. Besides that, it's great.

Valley of Defilement is great. Its the only area in the whole series that actually feels like the incredibly hostile poisonous rotten shithole its supposed to be.

The one thing I really miss from Bloodborne is how many bosses and enemies had weakpoints.
Dodging into BLB's blindspot and wailing on its back leg until it exploded into giblets and forced the whole boss to take the knee for a moment was such a great feeling.

In DaS3, only a handful of bosses have real weakpoints like that and they're mostly just shit dangling out of reach like Yhorm's head.

I feel Dark Souls 1 gets a pass because
1) it's most of /v/'s and/or /vg/'s first Souls game
2) it's early in the series
3) it sets up lots of lore that the others use
Look at it from a purely technical, gameplay-oriented PoV and it's the second worst in the series (which is understandable, since they each get better and build upon one another). Look at the level design. The map design itself? Sublime, sure. But the aesthetics? They're not as varied as DaS2, which ticked all the "Game Making 101" boxes: ice level, volcano level, forest level, castle level, swamp level, mountain level, water level, etc.

People riff on Dark Souls 3 for not being able to stand on its own, but it does feel like an actual sequel. Dark Souls: Gaiden banks solely off of the fact its a fucking Dark Souls installment to get attention, and the first fucking reward for SotFS upon death is "This is Dark Souls :^)". I don't hate 2, but it's definitely kind of a little fucking gay.

>>146721341
It's hard for me to choose between the two of them in terms of aesthetics. I like DaS1's general atmosphere. Everything has this really gloomy tint to it. DaS2, more often than not, seems a lot brighter and more surreal. But I like that too. So I'm at an impasse here.

You have idiot DMC fans saying that about DMC1, too. Read that sentence again. They say THE FIRST GAME IN THE SERIES ISN'T ENOUGH LIKE THE FUCKING SERIES. See how dumb that is?

If the game is in a series, and not a spinoff? Guess what? It can't feel distant to the series considering it IS the series.

I didn't really like most of DaS2's levels, aesthetically. Part of that is just that the game is ugly as shit, even compared to 1, but most of them felt really bland.
Maybe because they were just "game making 101" levels. DaS1 didn't do anything crazy with its locations, for the most part, but it maintained its own tone for everything(except demon ruins, kind of, which were rushed to fuck). The forest of fallen giants has no character at all compared to the burg. Earthen Peak is dull as hell compared to Sen's. Huntsman's Copse was just grey and more grey compared to Darkroot Garden.

Very few of the locations left any real impression on me.

I disagree. Most of Dark Souls 1 is wholly unforgettable, with Anor Londo, the Painted World, and Blightown leaving the biggest impressions on me (and the latter only because I played it on PS3 and the framerate was the worst I've ever seen).

Whereas in DaS2, Drangleic Castle, Shrine of Amana, Shaded Woods, and No Man's Wharf are all interesting and fresh. Drangleic especially felt like a Castlevania area. All 3 DLC locations were great too, though admittedly Loyce was the most substantial.
