Failure means you never should have tried.
>>332654425
Am i missing something? The other grab with the tree boss showed how fucked up that hitbox is, this one doesn't have that problem. tried lsowing it down too, what am i missing?
FUCK GRAB ATTACKS
>>332654746
The boss isn't supposed to throw you off the bridge, if you survive the grab he throws you away ON the bridge.

>>332654894
Are you the boss here, anon?
>>332654425
Without laying too many spoilers on me: How much does this game rely on the first one in terms of creativity? Every time I look at stuff from this game -- I'm avoiding most of it my worry has caused me to look into it more, I don't want another dark souls 2 -- there's something almost directly from the first. it has me worrying that it's just going to be pandery and over-reliant on the first one.

THANK YOU VERY MUCH OP NOW DARK SOULS III IS FOREVER RUINED FOR ME I HOPE YOU'RE HAPPY
is that supposed to be a boss? how come there's no health bar at the bottom of the screen?
>>332654894
Pretty damn sure it's just an angled fling in a random direction and double bad rolls yielded "off the side he goes." with this one.
I really hate the 'trial and error' element they introduced with Blood Borne.

>>332654894
It's not the only grab in the game that does this.
>>332655362
More of a mini-boss.
>>332655362
It is clearly normal enemy, just like giant crab.
>That wiggling model
>>332655532
He's made entirely out of ash.
>>332655470
What about Bloodborne was trial and error compared to Dark Souls?
>>332655362
Its an optional enemy at the top of the forest fag area. Killing it gets you a soul you can trade for havel's ring.
>>332654425

>grab move deals 80% of total health

also, this fucker looks like the vanguard, smelter demon and asylum demon meshed together
>>332655091
It has a lot of fan service and pandering, and tries it best to make you forget Dark Souls 2.
That said, it feels more like a mix between DeS (for the atmosphere and pace) and DaS2 (for the gameplay), with lore from DaS1 and items/armor/weapons from all the Souls altogether.
It's a "best of" and in my opinion the best way to conclude the series. It's way, way better than Dark Souls 2 and you can tell a lot more care went into it.
It's also linear as fuck, even more than DaS2 but that's not a bad thing, I'm just telling you so you know what you're getting into.
>>332655793
Neither bosses in this game.

Pretty much this. It has a lot in common with DeS and DaS2 gameplay wise without much inspiration from DaS aside from setting.
>>332655906
Bloodborne also had way better dodging and more plentiful healing, plus the rally mechanic. Of course the bosses are going to do more damage. If you literally get 1-shot, level VIT.
>>332655906
You haven't played BB have you?
Only boss thats done that to me is BSB, and its easy as fuck to avoid its one hit kill attack.
>>332655864

Not him but it feels more like what DaS2 should have been than anything else.
But don't take my word for it, after all I only played the game for 15 hours and you 0, you can just wait for release and see for yourself.
I went in with the same mindset as you so I wish you the best anon!
10/10 for funny fuck up. it almost makes sense though for a demon to do that. "eh, don't feel like fighting this little shit. FLY LITTLE MAN!"

because they are often slow with a short range.

I don't know wheter it's because I already played a lot of souls games but I thought that Bloodborne was the easiest one, I killed most bosses on my first try and I never died a ton of times because of one boss in particular.

Right at the start of the webm, to the left above, it looks like a balcony or broken bridge or something, skelly probably sheev'd from there

>>332659568
I'm okay with that because it was the first souls game but it's dissapointing to hear that it's not going to be as open as Dark Souls 1 and more like the crappy Dark Souls 2.
Hell, even Bloodborne was not linear.
>>332655864
DaS2 wasn't really linear at all
You had a few places you could tackle off the bat in any order and with a little work you could tackle the rest if the available paths from Majula
I don't get the linear thing. BB is also fairly linear but the way each area is designed is about 10x better than DaS1 and is more in line with DeS which is great
>>332659809
Ornstein has done a fusion dance with the pursuer
>>332659809

>least linear game in the franchise more linear than DaS2
Stop this retardation. Just because each level doesn't have fucking corridors connecting them doesn't make it linear.
>>332659908
Well DaS2 had a variety of linear branches while DaS1 was way more itnerconnected even through the more advanced areas. Only the Lords areas are linear because each is just the continuation of a previous area, DaS2 was like this everywhere.

>>332660285
DaS2 at release had magic at a good place. It needed a nerf, but not as significant as they did later.
I'm still conflicted as to what I should go with in DaS3. I've done a Miracle run before in the games but I enjoyed going full strength and two handed more. At the same time I've never gone for a Sorcery or Pyromancy run, so I might as well do one of them now, but now that I'm reading comments saying that magic is pretty 'meh' in the game I kind of lose interest in it.
ah this brings back memories...

You can dodge out of boss combos too and heal. It's really not that bad. Unless you completely ignored Vit the only attacks that should one shot you are heavily projected in advance.
>>332660807
I have the Plat for BB as well it easily lets you heal the most of all the games. I don't even see it as a negative since I think it's the game that puts you on par the best with the bosses you fight.

Now, I actually enjoyed DaS2 more because it didn't have any Sen's Fortress areas and I felt that it was moreaccessiblethan the first game, but c'mon anon, DaS2 had issues.

Combos = Things you can't dodge until they end.
Also I played my first time with a lot of VIT because I though it was a smart idea. It was not. The game is unplayable without a lot of STR, otherwise boss fights take long enough to fall asleep

There are no homing attacks in DaS3 that have the broken magnetism of DaS2. Most of the knights in the game bash the player with their shield if you try and fish for a BS, seriously most have like three different bashes for various situations.

>2 hollows and a bk
bullshit the hollows would stunlock you when trying to dodge/get behind the bk
