All the damn game look the same anyway.
I just beat DS1. should i go to 3 or 2?
I dont own a ps4 do bloodborne isnt an option.
>he didn't start at Kings Field
>he started at dark souls
>>337305449
>Dark Souls 3
I think you mean Bloodborne 2: No Guns Edition
>>337305812
2 isn't the best in the series but it has some good moments and the DLC areas are fantastic. It's worth a play through.

DS3 was the first game in the series I've played since DeS.
>>337306402
as a massive lovecraftfag I felt pretty dissappointed that I wasn't into Soulsborne enough to play through Bloodborne and find all that shit out playing it myself.
It's like I missed a really fun opportunity.
>>337306402

>>337305843
>he didn't start at Daggerfall
>>337306440
There are people who played Demon's Souls but never saw Yuria.
>>337306440
Demon's Souls is the weakest in the series. I pity people who miss Bloodborne, not Demon's Souls.
I played Dark Souls 1 and 2 and I think they're both trash.
>he started with bloodborne
>>337306440
I would play it if I had a PS3, but I don't know about buying a console for one game, and I'm not sure what else I would get on it. I hope they bring back the boss summoning players gimmick in the DLC, that shit with the Looking Glass Knight was fun.
>>337306656
Well, Kings Field is also a FROM series
>>337306604
I got it spoiled because I couldn't stay off /v/.

>>337306775
There are dirt cheap ps3s out there, do yourself a favor and play the game that started the Souls craze.
>>337306819
Dark Souls 2 shits on Demon's Souls completely.
DeS has so many fucking problems, is short, has mostly just gimmick bosses and hardly any interesting NPC quests. It's clunky, and aged badly.
It's still a great game, but it's EASILY the worst Souls game.
>>337306823
Granted, it has about as much character as the character sprites.
>>337306980
This
>>337306945
Not fun when every enemy you kill respawns 10 seconds later
>>337306823
A primitive game means that you can shove an asston of content into it
It's the reason I'll still play a round of Nethack every now and then
>>337306980
I see no real arguments, only hot opinions, as is expected of a DaS2babby.
Dark Souls 2 doesn't have a fraction of the inspiration and atmosphere of Demon's Souls. The weakest npcs shit on all DaS2 npcs. The smallest moments in Demon's are more memorable than anything in Drangleic. The bosses are unique and imaginative unlike the embarrassment from 2.
Dark Souls 2 is EASILY the worst Souls game.

>h-hey host think we should take out the deacons shooting fireba.....
>LOL nope let's run straight down the middle first so we can get stunlocked by fireballs as we're getting invaded by double aldrichfags
>>337307335
>inspiration and atmosphere
Ephemeral and irrelevant. It's a videogame you fucking pretentious shitstain. "inspiration" is a fucking worthless category. Why do DeS fans always resort to idiotic deflections like "I liked the world building!" or "the atmopshere is unique!" when faced with complaints about the most common DeS flaws?
>. The weakest npcs shit on all DaS2 npcs
DaS2 has some of the best in the series. Straid, Gavlaan, Gilligan, Benhart, Lucatiel, Navlan and more. All memorable. Many even had stories and plots beyond "go to hub town and sit around forever".
>. The smallest moments in Demon's are more memorable than anything in Drangleic. The bosses are unique and imaginative unlike the embarrassment from 2.
Yep. You're a fanboy idiot who can't look at the game objectively.
I started at Dark Souls 2 and it pretty much turned me off Souls games forever.
Mainly:
1) soul memory
2) the obvious attempts to cripple invaders
3) releasing a $60 game then $45 in DLC then a couple months later a $60 'remaster' that doesn't have online pooling with the previous purchases
So between Souls 1-3 and Bloodborne, which one should I start with?
>>337308182
Kings Field
>>337307920
>Ephemeral and irrelevant
Shows how much you can appreciate a medium and what it has to offer. No wonder you're satisfied with Souls 2.
>Straid, Gavlaan, Gilligan, Benhart, Lucatiel, Navlan and more. All memorable
You naming names doesn't make them memorable. Where is the DS2 equivalent of Biorr saving your ass against Penetrator, Ostrava losing his mind, Yurt silently taking out npcs in the nexus and many more moments that were later copied numerous times?
>Yep. You're a fanboy idiot who can't look at the game objectively.
Not an argument.
All in all, you're a massive fag just as I expected.
>>337305812
Honestly just skip 2 and go to 3. 2 is just a waste of time.
>>337308182

>Not an argument.
I don't need or want one. Your bias is wildly out of control.
>You naming names doesn't make them memorable
Their memorability is what makes them name names. I bet you can hear Straids voice right now just by thinking about it.
> Where is the DS2 equivalent
That's such a fucking dumb argument I can't even begin to explain to you how stupid you are.
>>337306980
>implying
>>337305449
>there are people who started at DaS2 and will continue to defend it to death because it's their first souls
>>337308791
Again you provide no arguments, only name calling, which is all you have. You can't point to a specific memorable moment with an npc because there aren't any. And even if there were, it can't hold a candle to the moments you experience in Boletaria which was my point.
>>337308182
Just play them in order.
>>337309098
>. You can't point to a specific memorable moment with an npc
Yes I can.
> there aren't any.
There's lot. But if I list them, you're going to say none of them compare/count.
>even if there were, it can't hold a candle to the moments you experience in Boletaria
See? You proved me right.
Your bias is wildly out of control. Fucking end yourself.
>>337307920
>Why do DeS fans always resort to idiotic deflections like "I liked the world building!" or "the atmopshere is unique!" when faced with complaints about the most common DeS flaws?
That's all the Souls series really has going for it.
>>337309214
Still nothing specific, only generic sperging.
>>337309286
Yes but that's what they ALL have going for them. DeS is shit out of luck, because by virtue of being a pioneer, it's also the prototype and has tons of flaws and issues that got resolved or improved upon in future iterations.
>>337306823
Probably because the actual game area was about half the size of the UK. Skyrim's world was about 0.06% the size of Daggerfall. I remember reading somewhere it'd take a week or two in real life to walk from one end of the map to the other.
Having said that they reused textures like a motherfucker and the towns all looked pretty samey, still an impressive achievement for that era of gaming.
>>337306604
It was pretty great.

>>337308165
Oh fuck off ds2 STILL has the best pvp of the entire series despite soul memory. I will admit it being a flawed game but it also has many merits.
>>337307920
Lucatiel is the only NPC story I remember, and even then barely. DaS2 is a fucking joke for NPCs, atmosphere and bosses. At least DeS had 2 out of 3.
>>337305449
I started with Dark Souls 1, and with that out of the way, give me one good reason why it would be a bad idea to start with 3. And don't even try pulling the lore card, you autists.
>>337306980
FUCKING KILL YOURSELF YOU STUPID CUNT
>>337310449
Not him, but that anon didn't even say DS2 was a bad game, but it is indisputably the worst starting point for a Souls game to date, and I believe that was the point he was trying to make.
Try not to get assblasted so easily next time.
>>337307920
LOL I HOPE YOU FUCKING KILL YOURSELF
>he reads the wiki during his first playthough
i haven't played any of these meme games yet
i have both pc and piss4
where the fuck do i start
>>337307920
1) inspiration and atmosphere are completely valid categories you knobgoblin
2) I had to spend 5 mins googling each one of those that you named because I dont remember them. DaS2 has nothing that is best of the series BESIDES pvp, which no one can deny
3) anyone who looks at the games objectively will find that DeS is far superior
4) you are worthless and no one will ever love you
>>337308891
>these people will say that its better than Demons even though they only ever watch some youtuber play it
>>337312540
Start wherever the fuck you want, even 3 if you want. Seriously, it doesn't matter.
>>337305607
I pity those sorry souls, if you start from the best game, everything else is just disappointment
>>337306880
>only one character
Fucking boring.
>>337307775
Why doesn't literally everyone just kill themselves after the Pontiff fight. The health bonus from the ember isn't worth the frequent invasions
>beat ornstein on first try

i've played through this game a couple times now, and every time these two give me a hard time

>He started at Dark Souls
>he still hasn't done a no shield run
>>337313312
I tried to but I couldn't deal with literally everything stunning me
>>337313312
I'm about to make a quickstep offhand dash and slash build right now actually
>>337313312
I did, and it was the best decision I've ever made. My play style has barely changed and I have almost no desire to even use a shield ever again. I've never even played Bloodborne btw.
>>337313312
>Carried around shields on both my playthroughs
>Only ever used them on the fucking dogs
>he plays video games
>>337313312
I have a shield and I never fucking use it. It feels too unreliable
>>337313312
Do you expect me to two-hand an estoc? Really? The entire point is so you can slash and stab.
>people not knowing the OP double tower shield build in DeS
