I have played all of them, and I like Bloodborne the best.
BB > DaS1 > DaS 3 = DeS > DaS 2

In myopinionthe ratings are BB = DeS > Das3 > Das1 > Das2
Ashen One is probably the Strongest.
Followed closely by the Hunter.DAS3 is still shit though
DaS2 > DaS3 > DaS > BB > DeS
all other opinions are memes

That's too ironic for you to even understand

Cant wait to play DaS3 will have to wait until June 4th!
>>335937892
>>335937815
DS2 is better than DS3 by a long shot. This insistence that DS3 is mid tier is such a load of shit.
I like BB as much as the next guy but its not the best, DES or DS2 is far better
DaS3>BB>DaS>DS2
Haven't played DeS.
>>335938295

What turns the people of 4chan into extremists? Is it a successful attempt at trying to get replies?
>>335938584
Eh well I played DaS2 once and never touched it again. meanwhile I have hundreds of hours in all the other games.
Bloodborne.

Not even a SonyggerSEGAfag. DaS has always had shit lore and atmosphere, and the gameplay has always been shit. At least DeS PvP is more balanced, and BB gameplay is top tier FAST.

I just like BB's combat, setting and bosses the best. DaS3 probably has my favourite multiplayer and DaS1 has the best overall world connection.
>>335938442
DS3 is not a good game
>>335938831
It's a good game. Try it again.
I think BB has the best setting, aesthetic, atmosphere, and lore, by a good margin. I vote BB.

Keep trying to justify your artificially limited PC, moron.
>>335937495
They're all boring, one of the most pathetic fanbases of all time.
>>335940325
I think DS2 isnot as bad as most people make it out to be.Still the worst by a pretty wide margin though.
>>335939426
Please list your arguments, and I will try and do my best to counter them.
BB=DS1>DS3>DeS>DS2
I played through all of them completely besides Dark Souls 2.
In my opinion.
Demon Souls=Dark Souls>Dark Souls 3>Bloodborne>Dark Souls 2
Bloodborne was a good game but I don't see why Sony fanboys hype it up as being something it's not, the aesthetics and design and detail in the world are top notch, but the entire online aspect was complete garbage, especially PvP. Boss fights were ok but I didn't like how floaty everything felt. Also, armor is meaningless and so are builds for the most part.
Not to say that Bloodborne is bad, it's miles better than Dark Souls 2, just enjoyed the others better.
OBJECTIVELY CORRECT RANKING
DAS > BB > DES > DS3 >DS2
>>335937495
For me
DaS1=BB>DaS3>DeS>>>>>DaS2
>>335937495
demon's souls, bar none, because world tendency and item burden.
>>335940756
dark souls 3 and Demon souls are both better than bloodbored
>>335940573I agree that DS2 isn't a bad game, it's still the worst Souls game though.Souls series is still the only series I can thing of where every game is a good game.

>>335941063
What's up with memesters trying to act as if Dark Souls 3 is bad? I honestly hope you're baiting. I've even seen fucking idiots trying to say that 2 was better.
>>335941127
I never said it was bad. The others are just better.
dark souls 2 had enough mechanical refinement to be superior to dark souls, despite stagnant enemy designdemons still beats the both of them because of raw creativitydark souls 3's missteps make it very comparable with dark souls 2, but it does beat it out, barelydark souls 2's dlc is better than artorias
>>335940578
He won't anon. He's a shitposter.
>>335937495
Best music: demons souls
Best combat: bloodborne
Best lore: bloodborne
Best setting: bloodbonre
Nicest looking game: bloodborne
Everything else you could possibly think of: bloodborne
Bloodborne is the magnum opus of that series.
>>335940325
this is spot on. i like ds1 and ds3 a lot for different reasons.
ds1 has great lore, geography, etc
ds3 has the better combat, gameplay, etc by a large margin tho
>>335940407
What got you so hot and bothered? I plainly explained why I like the game more. Cosmic horror shenanigans and Cronenberg abortions are much more interesting to me than the frankly uninspired dark fantasy motif of Souls. I'm just not a fan of swords&sorcery; dragons, knights, mages with big pointy hats; any of those setpieces. They're bland and overused.
Now call me a Sonygger.
>>335941291
>Best music: demons souls

>>335940325
Wow this guy is literally me.
>>335940592
>especially PvP
They haven't made a single game so far where PvP isn't a headache. If we judged them all on PvP then the series wouldn't be worth playing.
>>335941291
Agree with this senpai but bb music is better than demon souls music
DaS>>>>>>>BB>DeS>>>>>>DaS2>Das3
I hate fan service, I really do
>>335940856
kirby has also never had a bad game
BB > DaS > DeS > DaS2
still not played DaS3
>>335937495
For me
King's Field 1 (us) = Dark Souls 1 > Dark Souls 3 (DLC might push this game significantly, I just don't like how linear the start is) = Dark Souls 2 = Demon's Souls > King's Field AC Bloodborne > King's Field 2 (us)
All dark Fromsoft rpgs are at least good games, except Shadow Tower (psx) (that game is only okay at best) I didn't play Shadow Tower Abyss yet but it looks cool.
>>335941341

>>335941291
>Everything else you could possibly think of: bloodborne
How about variety and freedom? Or does that not matter in Souls games anymore?
>>335941635
You should take your shitty opinion and strangle yourself with it.
>>335938132
(you)
>>335941689
Epic Yarn felt like a bad game due to its forced easy mode.
>>335941715
King's Field is barely even like Dark Souls though.
>>335941332
The setting of bloodborne is not "inspired". It's taken straight out of Lovecraft horror stories, while DS's setting is taken from Berserk.
>>335941689
But anon, all kirby games are shitty casual trash. That's like saying there's never been a bad CoD.
bloodborne > dark souls > demons souls > dark souls 3 > dark souls 2
>>335941689
GTA has never had a bad game either
DaS3>BB>DaS1=DeS>DaS2
This is litearlly the only correct order and I will explain why as I have many times.
DeS has shitty bosses and mostly good areas
DaS1 has okay bosses and fantastic areas until the halfway point
DaS2 is mediocre in every department
BB has mostly good bosses and great areas
DaS3 has mostly great bosses and good areas
You could interchange BB or DaS3 as the first or second best of the series. If you prefer the level design aspect and atmosphere of the series, then BB. If you like the boss fights, like I do, then DaS3.
>inb4 DeS doesn't have shitty bosses
>>335941127
But 2 is better, and Dark Souls 3 is the worst in the series in most gameplay related aspects. The only thing it has on 2 in spades is the general aesthetic, and that's more due to 2 being ugly as sin than anything else.

Nice meme
have a (you), on the house.
DaS is still probably my favorite, though that's mostly because it felt fresh in terms of lore and mechanics when I first played it back in 2011. Everything since has been too familiar to recapture that sense of mystery.
Dark Souls 3 had the best environments and each boss was interesting and cool. Invasions are healthy and fun, it's the best Dark Souls
>>335937495
Best NG+ = Dark Souls 2
Best Covenants = Dark souls 2
I rest my case
>>335942104
Thank you friend, Demon's Souls still has the best bosses in the series overall since it focuses more on presentation and originality than ebin 1v1 standoffs.
>>335941914
Only good post
>>335941635
Holy shit, it's my exact opinion
>>335939426
All Sloulsborne games are good games anon, if it wasn't for (insert your favourite here), you would think that one of the other ones is really great.
>>335942214
DaS2 was pretty bad except for PvP but somehow those two things felt far more complete than they did in the rest of the games.

Holy shit. This is the definition of shit taste.
So far I've played DaS2/3 and BB. Both DaS games seemed to rely too heavily on the get 2 hits in, dodge away cycle for the "harder" boss fights. At least BB bosses felt a bit more varied than that. Anything that doesn't follow that pattern in the DaS games is just a fucking joke to fight, like Wolnir, the fucking tree, deacons, and so on.

>>335941827
There are plenty of similarities buddy. The only major differences are
-Currency (Gold)
-First Person
-Older slower paced combat
Heck, Shadow Tower even has
-Music only in select areas
-Ability to equip shields to a button that when used slows down stamina regen
-Souls like messages on the ground
-Vague story pieced together by npc interactions
Shadow Tower 1 (while not very good) could easily be labled as the first Demon's Souls. And Shadow Tower is really close to King's Field.
Demon's Souls didn't just appear out of no where.
>>335942527

Ds1>BB>Da3>Ds2>Des
>>335942560
Who are you quoting?
Demon's Souls by far.
Nostalgia apart, it had the best levels, enemies, situations, invasions/invaders/players.
Plus, the formula was new for everyone, it will never feel this fresh again.
Ds3, just threw all the assets and mechanics from previous games into one big mess. It feels empty and uninspired.
DeS > DaS3 > BB > DaS2 > DaS
The one true opinion
>>335942853
You can have throwbacks and still be subtle, fanboy.
>>335942636
you clearly haven't played all of them.
let me guess, just Dark Souls 3 right? lmao bitch
>>335942853
They used the same plot and endings.
>>335942853
I have no problem with fanservice but this shit is forced just like in DS2.
>>335942850
You're downplaying how much of a difference those things make. I know it inspired the Souls games but they play very differently.
>>335942681
AHAHAHAHAHAHAHA
>>335943172
There's no fanservice in DS2 but I guess hating everything about it is the cool thing now.
Dark Souls 2 is the Man of Steel of video games.
Most people hate it and think it's shit but you have a handful of autists defending it every day.
>>335937495
I like BB because it's different. And it has the most consistent quality throughout the whole game. No empty areas, no placeholder bosses, no bullshit.
I think DaS 3 is fine (even though I haven't finished it yet, about 2/3 in, I guess), but it's the same old shit we've already seen. They even brought half of the NPCs from the other games. The areas are pretty cool, too bad most of them are connected linearly. The only time I got really excited while playing 3 was when I got to Irithyll.
Looking back at DaS 1 without nostalgia goggles, I have to admit the quality of the game is very uneven, but I still think it's the best traditional Souls experience.
DaS 2 I don't even want to play. I haven't finished SOTFS and the last DLC, because they were so fucking bad. I'm still not sure how they managed to make SOTFS worse than vanilla. Crown of the Sunken King was nice though.
Never played DeS
So, I guess my order is: BB > DaS 1 > DaS 3 > DaS 2.

i honestly like DaS1 more than DeS but it is unfinished and has several marks of a rushed product. it can't be put higher than a game that is basically complete. (aside from the rumored cut 6th monument)

At least DaS3 didn't straight up copy/paste bosses.
>>335943295
Did you forget that the 4 great souls and nashandra are descendants from all the major bosses of the previous game?
>>335943761
Wow you are LITERALLY parroting opinions you heard on /v/. Nice job my friend.
DaS2 is the only DS game I've liked enough to bother with NG+ and PvPing after finishing it in.
The others were good but the end-game was meh.
>>335941127
Let the newness wear off.
It's a good game. It's literally nothing special though.
BB is literally just as good and way more interesting than the game as it is. It needs DLC.
>>335943528
Get Miyazaki's cum out of your eyes and you'll realize how your first Souls game wasn't the Citizen Kane of gaming that you once thought it was.
DaS = DaS3 > DaS2 > BB > DeS
>>335937495
DaS1 >= DaS2 > DaS3
I think Dark Souls 1 felt like the freshest game with great environments, atmosphere and bosses, Dark Souls 2 tried to do some stuff different and it didn't always work out but I think the environments, atmosphere and lore matches the original only being let down by the bosses in some cases where they felt half finished or relied heavily on "dude in armour" but I never really found fighting knights boring. Dark Souls 3 was great but I felt like it was repeating the set elements of the series, the poison swamp, top of the wall with dragons breathing fire onto it and underground skeleton land all felt like we've seen these areas before which detracted a little from the other great areas in the game. I do think the bosses are probably the best in the series, and it would be more than worth playing for the bosses alone, but I felt the difficulty curve for them was on backwards, they just got easier and easier for me as the game went on. I also felt that there were a few too many winks to the audience in DS3, we didn't need to go back to Anor Londo or see Andre, it just felt more fan-wanky than the Old Dragonslayer bossfight in DS2 and it was another solid entry in the series, but it just didn't feel like it did enough new and felt like more of a sequel than DS2 was.
I've only played the Dark Souls games, so maybe the other ones are great, and they look like they are, but I can't fully say until I get around to playing them.
>>335944112
>nothing special
Nigga its got some of the best boss fights in the series. The other base games have like a 10/90 good to bad boss ratio and DaS3 has like a solid 50/50. Nameless King, Soul of Cinder and Twin Princes are Fromsoft DLC-tier bossfights.
>>335937495
BB > DaS3 > DeS > DaS > DaS2
I like them all though.
>>335943876
SM, tracking, and wonky hitboxes.
Dark Souls 3 has the two latter, though. People will go BAWWW MUH LORE/ATMOSPHERE/ETC but honestly the zones were all fine in 2, they just were too linear/straight shot and aligned poorly due to Bamco not extending the deadline after Tanimura had to pick up Miyazaki's scraps and make a whole game from the ground up.
I'd rather go through Shrine of Amana than Farron swamp or Irithyll again.
>>335943972
So the sequel is related to the first game and that is somehow pandering? Get over your irrational DS2 hate.
>>335943876
>>335944402
>a few glaring issues like SM?
If you complain about Soul Memory you're either a twink that invades new players or so bad at the game you die and lose souls.
>>335944386
Good taste.
>>335944213
I felt DaS3 more true to the nebulous way time and space works in the Souls universe. People like Patches and things like the abyss continue to appear in the same timelines. Andre is just one of those people that exist in this kingdom.
That's just me though.
>>335944386
Good taste. Personally I prefer DaS3 over BB and DaS over DeS but I still respect you fampai
>>335942681
DaS2>DeS
>>335943957
Well, they copy/pasted areas and an NPC.
>>335944386
>I like them all though.
The only good answer.
>>335944487
i did just fine, i don't care about SM really but it is probably the biggest complaint people have
honestly if From had chose to learn from DaS2 instead of ignore it completely we could've had a great game, not just a decent one
>>335944757
>areas
Literally one area and it was really short
Other than Demon's Souls, which is undeniably the worst one, the rank is up in the air.
I lean towards DaS and BB being tied as first.
SILKY SMOOTH 22 FPS
>>335944213
>>335944582
I feel that the 'flow of time is convoluted in this land' shit is a cop-out excuse for obscure lore and phantoms. Likewise, it applies only to Lordran.
Drangleic was nice. It was also nice seeing a different land 200 years in the future, where everything familiar is but a faint memory. Yet, there are still things that seem familiar. It was a strange kind of feeling. DaS3 just brings everything back for the sake of it and in an incredibly tactless, fanservicey way.
>>335944816
Yeah I can agree with that. DaS2 has some issues but SM isn't one of them.
>>335943186
Someone could very easily say the same thing for Bloodborne and that game is almost always included in these lists. Games in these series through spiritual successors have been making minor changes since the first King's Field. These minor changes lead to Demon's Souls creation and continued past that point. The only reason why people stop the line at Demon's Souls is because that is when the series became popular (and for most people good).
It's like not counting GTA 1&2 in a list of GTA games.
>>335944757
Anor Londo was a really tiny section, and I kind of likedstabbing my wife in the head to become the new heir to flamein Gwyndolin's Tomb

Archdragon Peak is literally the best zone in Souls history.
Fuck all you DaS3 haters.
>>335943785
This is how it should be. Only bandwagoners play the sequels first.
>>335944487
I dislike SM because I'm a person who likes to use shit like throwing knives/fire bombs/resins and those cost souls. SM doesn't break the game for me, but it was a minor nuisance. Thankfully DaS2 had actual build variety at lower SLs than 3 does, though.
>>335941332

Shittiest taste in the thread right here.
>>335945018
I'm replaying the game for trophies but I don't look forward to this moment. I didn't see it yet but it sounds edgy and lame to me.
>>335944582
>>335944946
Yeah, I get you can justify having things in the game from previous games through "time is all messed up" but it just doesn't feel as, I don't know, organic (?) as exploring a new area. There is definitely ways of doing fanservice, but I'm not a fan of the "REMEMBER THIS?" style.
It wasn't a deal breaker for the game to me, but it just bugged me.

Nameless is kinda underwhelming visually though.

Mmmm, just listen to that overused choir. Way worse than Dark Souls! Oh wait. You're a retard. Demon's had great music because it was mostly ominous, brooding, and something that was there in the background to add to the atmosphere instead of your generic bombastic choir chanting with a blaring orchestral score to remind you you're THE BIG DAMN FANTASY HERO!
>>335945667
The whole "HEY GUYS REMEMBER THIS?" thing annoys me the most. Siegward, while nice, is literally just Siegmeyer. Hell, Sirris' storyline is basically Siegliend's but at least they actually changed her enough to warrant being a new character.
>>335941896
No not really. It's only loosely based on Lovecraft's stories, otherwise the great ones in Bloodborne would've been a lot worse than what we got. The cosmic horror side of the game is only half of it anyway with the rest being more Bram Stoker. It takes inpsiration from several things and makes something of its own with it. You know, like just about everything ever made in the history of mankind.
>DS's setting is taken from Berserk.
Oh, I should've finished reading your post because now it's just obvious you're baiting.

Truly one of the worst fanbases.

That's not even a hitbox problem, it's a glitch that carried the attack into lingering into the next bit when the cutscene was skipped, maybe even had dasfix with fps boost glitching going with it.
Talk about fucking reaching.

I don't have a problem with copy-pasted stuff, I liked Anor Londo/dead DS1 demons in the catacombs in DS3 and I didn't mind the Ornstein fight in DS2. It just feels weird to me that people complain about one thing being copy pasted for fanservice, but not the others.
>>335946320
How? Yuria just keeps asking me if I heard about Anri, and I can't find her anywhere.
>>335946802
Variety. Most of the game takes place in Yharnam, every area is littered with random shit, many of the enemies are repeated multiple times throughout the game, only aggressive playstyles are encouraged, Chalice Dungeons are repetitive AND shit, and there aren't many different ways to progress through the game.
>>335944386
>I like them all though.
all good except this part
>>335937495
Have yet to play Demon Souls and Bloodborne, but from the actual Dark Souls series I would say 3 is the best.
DS1 was great. It had good lore, characters, areas, bosses, but thats it. PvP never got fixed so laggy shit as well as gangrape was common.
DS2 was also great, with new lore, good bosses, characters, areas, working covenants and PvP, less lag. Though the lore and characters parts were weaker than the previous game.
DS3 pretty much did everything better except for the covenants and characters. PVP was improved, less laggy now and magic is balanced, so as long as they fix the auto summoning Covenants it could be even better.
Though to be honest Bloodborne seems more like the 3D Castlevania I always wanted, so that might be my favorite once I play it.
>>335939732
Fuck off underage console babby
Ok, it's time we stop pretending this is a good game.
>less enemy variety than Bloodborne
>less bosses than Bloodborne
>shittier bosses than Bloodborne
>awful area designs compared to Bloodborne(Farron's keep, consumed king's garden, Smouldering lake)
>shit combat
>laggy multiplayer
>worse animations and particle effects
>rehashed content out the ass
It's clear the leftover budget from Bloodborne was used to make this game. Now please let's stop pretending it's a good game because it isn't. Bloodborne is a good game, Dark Souls 3 isn't.
>>335946802
you think i didn't like bloodborne?
I liked all the games, but I enjoyed Bloodborne the least. I didn't like the setting, the feel and use of the weapons, the guns or a lot of the bosses. I missed powerstancing, non-range parrying, weight limits, fatrolling, rolling in general, the medieval fantasy setting of souls. I like the designs of weapons and the transformations are a neat idea, but I personally didn't care much for it in terms of playing with it. There's a special place in my heart for a heavy armored knight with a big ass sword, a place that no clothed cunt with a gimmick weapon and a gun that encourages spam and a parry with no risk what so ever can ever replace.
>>335947672
Souls is the perfect 3D adaptation of the Metroidvania style, and BB is the proper 3D Castlevania that Konami never figured out how to make.
>>335947831
i'll provide ya an argument as solid as your own buddy
no.
Bloodborne is the pinnacle of the series. Anyone who says otherwise hasn't played it.
Well DS3 is the only game that can fuck over your save file just by a hacker attacking you.
I'm at Irithyll of the Boreal Valley. This is a great area. Are the rest of the areas as good as this? Are profaned capital, Lothric castle, archdragon peak, and grand archives as good as this?
>>335948126
Also I should be upset about this fact, I have every right to be, yet I feel strangely serene about the situation. Somehow losing a game I played for 10 hours doesn't seem to bother me.
>>335937495
Dark Souls 3
>>335947872
>>335946802
not to forget the lack of a shitton of spells, pyromancies, miracles, dark magic, sorceries, weapon classes, weapon quantity and armor sets weren't all the same.
>>335937495

>>335947872
I find that you almost always still have to be close enough to risk getting hit if you want to actually pull off a riposte. The accuracy is wonky from range, and also, they're not attacking unless they think they can hit you.
>>335948381
but bloodborne has a gun dude, he knows what's good
Check metacritic you retard
Bloodborne>DeS=DaS3>DaS(PTDE)>DaS2 SotFS
>>335948417
i prefer parrying with a shield or a dagger, etc. Being up front and throwing an enemy attack to the ground is sweet. having a ranged parry is ass.
>>335948440
Second chance > guns
I haven't played Bloodborne yet, but Dark Souls is almost a perfect game in my opinion.
It's world functions perfectly.
If I could have a dream project actually worked on, it would be several expansions to the first Dark Souls game to widen the world, and just expose more of the canon.

Yeah since the first time I played Dark Souls it satisfied my Castlevania needs really well.
Just wish the whips had better movesets though.
>>335948045
Dark Souls 3 is the pinnacle of the series. Anyone who says otherwise hasn't played it.
>Walk around the streets of Irithyll in DS3
>Almost completely empty with no detail, big open spaces of nothingness everywhere
>Walk around random optional shortcut path in Bloodborne
>Heavily detailed street, bottles on the ground fall over as you walk by. Random papers and carts scattered around.
It's clear that much more care went into Bloodborne.
ITT everyone thinking their taste is better than the rest

Nothing wrong with this
PC cucks need not apply,
I'm being serious, it's no secret that you let the fact that Bloodborne is an exclusive cloud your judgement and most of you have played it ( in your dreams ) and like to spread falsehoods about it.
Let me be clear this is not bait,I'm not just saying this to get a rise out of anyone,it's facts.
>>335937495
Bloodborne > Demon's Souls > Dark Souls = Dark Souls 3 > Dark Souls 2 > Witcher 3 > Witcher > Witcher 2
>>335948241
>Lothric castle, archdragon peak, and grand archives
All three areas have so many annoying enemies I could barely look at the scenario, but Irithyll is still the most beautiful, no doubt about it.
Grand Archives is a fuckin mess. Dragon Peak looks cool but it felt shorter. Lothric Castle is huge and looks great but theres enemies every fucking corner.
DeS/DaS superior in worldbuilding, npc's and lore
Das3 is superior in level design, boss design, consistency in quality and combat mechanics
BB is runner up in both categories
DaS2 should be forgotten.
DLC can easily put DaS3 undisputed king in all categories
>>335948743
Bloodborne has two whip weapons, a light and a heavy whip basically, and they're both INCREDIBLY satisfying to wield. Threaded Cane is my series weaponfu.
Beast Cutter is the other one.
>>335949572
Not even close.
BB Combat is the best in the series.
Demon's has the best atmosphere.
DaS may have the best interconnected world purely from a geographical design point but it's nothing without enough zones with good atmosphere to back it up. Not to mention because of they were forced to cut content based on the 360's limitations, the later zones are completely fucking awful.
To me, BB and Demon's each have something that the other games can't surpass. While the three DaS games are damn good on their own but can't claim to be the truly best at anything. Plus Demon's gets some bonus points for being the first in the series.
Can we all just agree that Dark Souls 3 is the best Soulsgame?
Answer some simple questions.
>Did Dark Souls 3 have as piss poor build variety as Bloodborne?
>Was the PVP in Dark Souls 3 as broken as Bloodborne on release? (Memers who still can't parry/hyperarmor smash Estoc/Darksword shitters need not answer this question)
>Was the framerate capped to 30fps like Dark Souls 1 or Bloodborne?
>Did the game receive as large of a dip in quality as Dark Souls 1?
>Did the games bosses suck major donkey dick pre patch like Dark Souls 1 and even Bloodborne?
Let's look at the bosses in Dark Souls 1 (pre DLC)
>Ornstein and Smough
>Errr, "ezmodeparry even for scrubs Gwyn"?
>Sif, maybe?
Dark Souls 3
>CHAMPION
>Qt Brothers
>Cinders
>Abyss Watchers
>Pontiff
>Nameless King
>OCELOTTTTTTTTTTT
>many more (pretty much 90% of the bosses were top notch both in Difficulty, design and lore)
Didn't think so. Demon Souls to me is that game you pick to show that you were "a Souls fan before the series became popular!". It's the die hard contrarian choice, playing Demon Souls after Dark Souls 3 and Dark Souls 1 just shows you how obsolete it is, the gameplay is easy, the game overall feels dated compared to DS3 and DS1 and the bosses were meh tier at best not to mention the mediocre OST (for me personally).
Now before you say "MUH SETTING" for Bloodborne, just acknowledge that setting is purely subjective and something I also agree with, I loved BBs setting but overall, I'm confident in saying DS3 is the best and most complete Souls game straight out of the boss. The series as a whole is excellent (even DS2 to some extent was decent, the people saying it was "shit" only to find over 70+ hours of playtime in their Steam accounts truly strikes me as autism) but Dark Souls 3 is the best.
Fun fact (DSP died more than 100 times in DS3 compared to any other Soulsborne playthrough and he had to summon to beat Nameless King. he died the least in Bloodborne pre DLC).

>Did Dark Souls 3 have as piss poor build variety as Bloodborne?
Less.
>Was the PVP in Dark Souls 3 as broken as Bloodborne on release? (Memers who still can't parry/hyperarmor smash Estoc/Darksword shitters need not answer this question)
All Souls games have 'broken' PvP and that's a good thing.
>Was the framerate capped to 30fps like Dark Souls 1 or Bloodborne?
No.
>Did the game receive as large of a dip in quality as Dark Souls 1?
No.
>Did the games bosses suck major donkey dick pre patch like Dark Souls 1 and even Bloodborne?
Yes, and so do the early game ones.
Dark Souls 3 has awful combat, it's only better than DS2, and the game totally lacks in mood or atmosphere.
>>335950413
Just because a boss says some meme name during a fight doesn't make it good.
You just stay close to him and swing away and he goes down fast without you even getting hit.
It's a shit boss. Fuck off memer
DeS and DaS2 are fucking tedious as hell to play. DaS3>BB>DaS1>DaS2>DeS
>>335950413
also dsp died more cause it's the only souls game he didnt have to grind off stream for, you moronic fuck
>>335939808
I honestly think he needs to seek some help.
>>335937495
I've played all of them, but for some reason I always come back to Demon's Souls. It might feel primitive compared to the later games, but there's something about it that I love more than the other games. They're all great games regardless. Even DS2.
BB>DaS1>DeS>DaS3>DaS2
>>335950754
>Less.
Objectively false. Enjoy playing as the same trench coat dashing DEX fag everytime in Bloodborne. Meanwhile i'll be rocking everything from DEX Dual Wield builds, to mage builds to STR no shield builds to Greatshield and Archery builds.
>All Souls games have 'broken' PvP and that's a good thing.
No where near as laughably bad as "R1 4 Health" Borne.
>Yes, and so do the early game ones.
Pontiff
Abyss Watchers
Gunydhr
Ocerios

Souls of Cinder

Were shit to you? Glad to know that you had Souls games in general then.
>Dark Souls 3 has awful combat
Combat is the best the combat has been
>no tryhard poise faggots forcing you to exploit toggle escapes
>no backstab fishing faggots
It's great, both in PVP and PVE with most builds feeling viable. Compared to "R1 to win" Bloodborne, it's a god send.

I far prefer Bloodborne. It takes Dark Souls and makes it accessible to people who like having mobility in their action games. AND it pretty much has the perfect combat system for survival horror games.
It's streamlined, bullshit-free and rejuvenated in order to let people who don't like Dark Souls have fun with that kind of game.
>>335952198
Literally how could anyone prefer Dark Souls 1 to Dark Souls 3?
>worse bosses (no DLC included)
>HUGE dip in quality
>30 fps lock on even PC
It's just inferior in virtually everyway. I can understand Bloodborne because the setting is drastically different but Dark Souls 1? Nah senpai
>>335943880

Dark Souls 2 had the best armor of any of the games

Never played Demon Souls. Also, even though I have DkS 2 at the bottom, it's still one of my favorite games.
Which of the 5 final bosses would win in a fight?
