I've been playing since King's Field and I think DaS2 Is the worst of the bunch.
>>340274791
Honestly, anyone who actually believes this and isn't just saying it disingenuously to rile up a video game imageboard has a legitimate mental issue.
>>340274413
Did you just call DS3 "disappointing"? Wanna fight me?
Fag.

It's a fucking sequel and the final game, of course they're gonna do callbacks
>>340273176
It came after the developmental mess that was DaS2 and even that's still an alright game with fantastic dlc.
>>340273176
Not while Battleborn exists
>>340273408
Dark Souls 2 was leagues better than this one. At least magic worked in DS2.
Fuck this game. Fuck 3. Fuck Bloodborne.
1 step forward from Dark Souls 2, two steps back from Dark Souls 1.
AAA is confirmed cancer.
>>340275268

The only good things about DS3 are the graphics, the consistent quality and the performance
DaS2 is overall a better game and that says something.
Why did they even remove the good parts that DaS2 introduced?
>>340275104
>better combat
>feels like i'm hitting toys
sure better combat
can't discuss with everything else because 2 was so fucking shit i'm in no hurry to finish ir or play 3
>>340275268
DaS3 and Bloodborne probably have the best PvE, while DaS2 still has the best PvP. You can't dispute this.
>>340275404
Why don't you like 3?
>>340273176
>considers a video game the "biggest blunder of the century"
Please, please, please go fucking kill yourself.
If your reason for DS3 being shit is because of the PvP then you have no right to complain.
Souls was always about the PvE first.
Am I the only one who loves ds2 ?
That art style
The fashion
The feeling of despair in the game
How lonely you feel
The bosses
Man, my fave. And I did start with dark souls 1.
Still waiting for that Mentosmenthosis fag to make a video about it so everyone here starts shitting on it like everyone did with DaS2.
Though - He will probably like it because he is a Miyazaki dicksucker and even liked Lost Izalith and called it beautiful.
>DaS2 is shit because it has a lot of dudes in armor
>completely ignores that the source of demons is the Chaos Flame which you defeated in the first game
>DaS3 also has lots of dudes
>here it will probably be fine because Miyazaki can't do no wrong
>>340275438
Actually I agree wholeheartedly.
Fuck the PvE though. WHy wouldI ever want to play the same goddamn game 7 fuckign times through? Fuck that shit. PvP. Oh magic isn't worth a shit anymore after 2? The only real improvement they made to the series in 2? They took it out? Fuck it. Fuck it. Even DS1 did magic better and had more variations in what was viable.
The parrying in 3 is fun, that is fucking it. And the game is uninspired. There are like fucking three poison swamps or just poison pits in general, the same goddamn depths, the same stupid shit. I get that it's a callbacks, but when you don't do anything really new and it's all just callbacks, you're clearly a dev at your limit and should just fucking stop.
Nips are greedier than the jews though.

>>340275402
>I can't farm souls and use climax to one shot shit

It was ok, had the best PvP and netcode
Something feels off about it though

You are a dickrider if you critize one game for something yet praise another for doing the same thing.
no, it's a fucking great game
>>340275832
this I have an int build and crystal soul spear fucks shit up. Are all you guys complaining about magic not being "viable" in dark souls 3, do you really want the hexes that we had in ds2 back?
>three bluefag covenants
But DaS2 did it right. Two are enough. One for protecting and getting protected and one for active redfag hunt.
There was no need to split it even more.
>>340273176
Fuck i've been playing that game non-stop for 2 weeks now, I'm alredy on my tenth character, this game is the shit.

It was a pretty mediocre game.
>>340275832
I don't give a fuck about climax. TYou can avoid spells liek they are nothing in this one. Attunement is nerfed as fuck.
If I am going to be a wizard why do I only know 4 spells at barely any attunemnt? Fuck that. They clearly want you to prioritize melee and not focus on magic, and if you do you aren't supposed to have any sort of survivability so everything will kill you in one hit in pvp.
It's fucking trash.
>>340276435
Because you're more than likely a meelee player, which is fien. I' have no interst in that shit thopugh. I have no interest in playing the same fuckign build everyoen else has. I have no interest in a game series if it's forcing me to play a different character type than it used to allow. It doesn't allow mages to work worth a shit in pvp anymore without it being way more fuckign harder than it needs to be.
There is absolutely no reason they can't let me spam various spells instead of being stuck on maybe 5 attunemtnt slots.
>inb4 darkmoon ring
That is nearly impossible to gert. Farming takes more than a day, and the covennat is broken.
THis is /v/ though. If I want actual discussion i got a thousand other places to go.

DAS3 was kinda shit to be honest.
This 2016 is the year of /v/ contrarians exposed.
First DaS 3, then Doom, we have now the proof the board is infested by nitpicking hipsters.
Go back to play whatever game you prefer, this thread, like many others, just shows how DaS 3 haters have no arguments other then being burned from the series.

The PvP has always been shit besides DS2
It's unbalanced as fuck, the phantom range is shit, cant punish chuggers or fucking spam rollers

Irythil is pretty across the bridge, its boring as fuck inside it.
Abyss watcher buildup? lol fuck off, they look retarded, like a badly mishmashed bloodborne leather character.
Pontiff looks retarded and has zero buildup, but he was a fun sword fight boss.
Music was pretty great i agree, though really all i remember is abyss watcher.
Nothing compared to Golden Anor Londo->walk up steps->God-tier boss fight with music->being knighted by Gwynevere the goddess of tits.
>>340277936
except PvP is the sole reason games like dark souls still live. Excuse me if I get upset a main mechanic of the game designed to extend longevity is crappy, but hey I should drop 60 bucks just to kill 10 million mooks with long sword aka best weapon and post my cool fashion screenshots right?
>>340277936

Oh god. I bet you bow before fighting too right?

That's what you get you fucking dex faggoting piece of shit.
>unbalanced
1 was well balanced after the patching, so was 2. 2 was very unbalanced when it came out initially and took a while I will admit, but atleast it didn't have flipping havel moms.
Those were fun as fuck though. Tooo badd they got patched.
But I can't even be that much of a douche with how broken and unbaklanced 3 is. You jsut can't make much work beyond a sword and medium armor 40 40 build.
The only difference between players really being the looks and weapon choice.
Bland and boring as fuck.

Yes.
this is 4chan you cucklechuck.
If pve is so good then why are there no summon signs once you get to 120 for any old boss? Why are summon signs for bosses level specific? Not even bosses just for areas?
If you enjoy pve so much why don't you enjoy it with other people?
>>340280495
It worked for 2?
Besides, I already like 3. I just wish it had more variety in weapons and spells for pvp.
>Nearly every single pvp webm/gif/montage posted here is some faggot with a hornet ring either parrying or backstabbing
I remember seeing such cool fights in dark souls 1, what the fuck happened
It's not that cool fights don't happen here, but nearly every 1v1 is a parryfest and the other 95% of pvp cases is a ganksquad.
I'd rather replay Dark Souls 1 desu.
>>340280989
I'd rather playDemon's Soulsdesu~
>>340277030
Pontiff was the easiest boss in the game, kind of a fun fight though.
>>340281739

Played dark souls 2 offline for around 200 hours and online for 500.
Played dark souls 3 offline for 20 hours and online for 0.
Yes this game is unbalanced piece of trash where it's only redeeming factor are some enemy designs and graphics. The gameplay is mmo tier spin to win enemies kind of trash.
>>340274791
I started with Demon's Soul. I think DS3 is great and better than 1 and 2, although I like 2 and don't think it was shit like most people do.
What are kings field and shadow tower like?
I know pretty much nothign abotu them, yet I call myself a big faggot for Souls.
>>340275268
I actually loved PvP in souls 2 just because of the variety, also I miss invading in the Dark Chasm of Old, people can't summon help, you make them waste an effigy to get back in and plenty of hate mail to read.
I don't think I ever had as much fun since the Old Monk fight.
DeS>BB>DaSII>DaS>DaSIII
>>340282143
Okay, I'll give you Deacons. Vordt actually messed me up my first time, though, I dunno if I got greedy or what. Yhorm I was spoiled on how to win. Pontiff, though, I was all hyped up by some friends about how awesome and difficult he was, walked in and beat him with little effort at all first try. Then again, that's a theme for me in Souls games, I get stuck on the bosses everyone else says are easy: Old Demon King had me raging.

>>340282493
>>340282493
>loved PvP in souls 2 just because of the variety
My brother. There is so much fun shit that became viable after the dlc.
I really really hope DS3 does the same thign because it's the weakest in my opiniion. I don't think it would be hard at all to make it better though. Even without givign more attunemnt slots. Just tweak magic and spell and their speeds. Holy shit you can walk around them so easily. Even the chaos fireball is pretty worthless. A lot look really great too.
And even a lot of the melee weapons so far aren't very good. I've been really disappointed because they just aren't useful at all in PvP.
>>340282472
Graphically unimpressive and very slow. It takes quite a while to get used to how slow you move and especially how slow you turn.
They aren't very tactical as your main strategy is to move forward, attack, move back, wait until your stamina regenerates and attack again.
However they have a lot of atmosphere and you can see the influence it had on DS.
I only finished Shadow Tower, which I liked.
>>340282753
I'm not, though. I'm just a shield-shitter, he hardly landed a hit on me.
>>340282823
Ya, right now I am just running glass cannon twink mage with crystal soul mass and spear. Pyro was my favorite in soul games but here it just plain sucks unless you do profane flame exploit. To me it feels like weapon choices are more limited than what Bloodborne had, I like that game to but more for the PVE
>>340282941
Ah well if you're good with timing your blocking and have a shit-ton of stamina, then I can see him being easy.
>>340282941
How did you have more difficulty against the other bosses though?
>>340283029
I missed the mage my first playthrough and bothered playign NG+ yet.
I'm greatly bothered by how he jsut compeltely disappears liek that so early in the game.
Fuck Fromsoft. Why do they hate mages? There is no real reason to have removed all the improvements to it in 2. There just isn't.
>>340279443
>legit autism
>merely

You decide
>>340275651
DaS2 is better than 1 in most aspects. But you're right, there's a very special feel to the game, and beating bosses like lost sinner, mirror knight of velstadt felt more rewarding than any other soulsborne boss
Dark souls 3 would be better if they got rid of vit and attunement.
>>340283029
>Ya, right now I am just running glass cannon twink mage with crystal soul mass and spear
Ayy me too! Shame sorcery sucks ass in PVP compared to conventional weapons
>>340283219

Yeah maybe Velstadt but the other two were absolute cake walks
>>340273176
No. That's Splatoon and/or MGSV
Not a blunder since the game itself is pretty good, but underwhelming as a whole.
Bloodborne recieved the love and dedication and this one was left to fill the quota.
Dark Souls 2 was bigger and more polished in some aspects and even contrarians can't refute this. In fact, DaS2 had more variations on the landscape, enemies, lightning, PVP, story and ambience, at least Scholar of the First Sin.
Maybe it just needs its expansion.
>>340283446
Meant sacred flame

>>340282823
Magic is too hard to land. I heard there is a patch for DS3 coming out on Friday that will tweak spell canceling, stamina consumption, and time it takes to cast. Hopefully they make magic more responsive, because unless you're using the Sage's Ring, it's too fucking slow. They seem to be slowly fixing their fuckups at least. They made the moonlight greatsword good now and spells use less FP so far. They just need to make spells faster, lower the FP cost more, and increase the damage.
>>340283660
o-oh...Here I was hoping a new glitch popped up to abuse with sacred flame
>>340283212
Yeah honestly Vordt, Greatwood, Crystal Sage, and Deacons are all hilariously easy once you've figured out their mechanics. Pontiff is a monster unless you have a 100% absorb shield/are gud at parrying.
>>340283509
>Dark Souls 2

>In fact, DaS2 had more variations on the landscape, enemies, lightning, PVP, story and ambiance, at least Scholar of the First Sin.
Scholar of The First Sin fixed everything , well, almost everything wrong with 2. Easily my favorite Souls game alongside Demons Souls.
>>340283660
Aren't they planning to patch this already though because god forbid magic be good?
>>340283667
Not even that. I'm actually fine with casting times usually. it's usually the spell speed that gets me killed. I actually have problems where my eyes have trouble tracking things and they're way too slow even for me. It's stupid and just sad.
>>340283798
>Pinwheel 2.0 is easy
Wow, who would have guessed.
>>340283212
Well, running it down: Iudex was fun and pretty easy but his second form got me, Vordt, Oceiros and any boss that sperg-rages got me a few times, Old Demon King got me with his death-nuke a few times, Aldrich was probably the hardest for me other than Nameless King (who I couldn't target), Wolnir was easy of course but got me with the abyss, Abyss Watchers were fun as hell but I fell to the second form a couple times, Deacons, I think, got me once because I screwed up. Crystal Sage got me with the clones. Pontiff was the only fight I walked into ready for a fight and barely took damage. Hell, even Greatwood got me with that stupid arm. I dunno, it's a theme for me and Souls games, I lose to the bosses everyone else thinks are easy.
>>340283893
>Scholar of The First Sin fixed everything , well, almost everything wrong with 2. Easily my favorite Souls game alongside Demons Souls.
Not him. I only have the first dark souls and want to catch up could I skip dsII and go for scholar of the first Son and then go for dsIII?
>>340283893
Well there's where my second post went. I thought 4chan ate it. I did not mean for a wall of text.
>>340283509
Don't even act like the variations in dark souls 2's landscapes was a good thing
Each area looked like i twas fro ma Saturday night cartoon and made no sense
>>340283798
I fucking hate Greatwood. Every playthrough he kills me at least 5 times. Fuck that piece of shit and his stupid hand that never stops attacking. I used to have the same problems with Crystal Sages, where they always got me, but then I just started to play aggressively and now they go down easily. I know they're easy, but I always die to them for some reason, while 1 shotting every other boss.
>>340284038
Yes. Do it. DS2 is bad, but Scholar is pretty good. Unless you wan t to see the comparison for yourself. Even enemy placing is way better and more engaging. Right at the start even. It was a really cool thing to see. It came with the dlc already too which was really nice.
It couldn't hurt to do Scholar, then a run of DS2 if you're curious. otherwise I would skip it.
>>340283798
I don't understand. What are the Deacons mechanics? I thought you just punch the red glowing one or spam spells til they all die?
I'm serious, what the fuck mechanic is there to them?
>>340284174
alright thanks.
>>340284174
>Scholar is pretty good
>>340284131
Greatwood is the worst boss in the game. He pretty much never kills me, but some of his ballsacks are placed in obnoxious spots and the fight always degenerates into running circles around him for ages waiting for him to do that particular attack that gives me a chance to attack that one weakspot. It's just fucking boring.
>>340284323
I like how in Scholar they would aggro from so far away. Shit was so good.
>>340273176
Blunder? No
Feels like an unfun chore overall? Yes. I liked ds2 better.
>>340284131
Oh yeah Greatwood was a cunt for me at first, but now it's literally the easiest in the game. All I do is mash R1 at the cyst thingies and occasionally roll away from the beyblade attack.
>>340284253
For the ease of writing the sentence, I didn't feel like singling them out. On the subject though, it took me a few tries before I even realized that I had to attack the glowing one specifically, as I thought they all shared the health bar like every other mob boss ever.
>>340284437
But it's so much prettier and the OST is all incredible. Doesn't feel anywhere near as long either.
>>340284414
>>340284131
How does the tree and his ball sacks kill you?
How do you get caught in any of his spam?
It's so telegraphed.
How are any of his spots hard to hit?
He gives you many opportunities.
>havign to run in circles
>not just rolling all around him and hugging him like a hippie
Okay, maybe when he does that dumb turds falling out the sky attack, but that's all.

What? Just beat him for her. That's all you have to do. Think of it like Sunbroing for bad players.
At least in Scholar she can walk on bridges and not wander off and drown like a hollow slut.
I liked it more than bloodborne before the dlc
overall I would rate the series as:
AotA>TOH>DS3>DaS>BB>SotfS>DeS>DaS2
I only rate AotA higher because it is both consistent in quality, has two of the most memorable npc's in souls history, and features four challenging and distinct bosses that don't reiterate at all over the main game.
Whereas TOH has Ludwig and Orphan, two of the highest points in the series, I felt the level design was less organic, the npc's not as memorable, and living failures, laurence and maria were either not as good as the main two, or felt reiterative of the bosses you fought in the main game.
Dark Souls 3 also has my favourite music in the series.

Honestly curious, how do you hit the spot on one of his elbows apart from immediately after he does the falling on his back attack? It's the only one that never fails to annoy the shit out of me.
>>340285075
I'm sure he either gives you a chance somewhere after a swing or swipe. He pretty much always falls on his back though.
>>340285075
You don't even need to hit that one

Yeah this too.
Just beat his balls and dick with the hand until he's dead.

It's a solid game but something just feels so meh about it. I'm playing through it right now for the first time and it just feels whatever. I've already beaten the princes, and now I'm using pic related to go back and find the areas I missed. It feels like a chore. I can actually see this being another Dark Souls II in that after my first playthrough I'm not gonna touch it again - or at least not for a very long time.
And what's with the graphics? In some places the game looks like downright eye cancer. It really feels insanely rushed and devoid of polish in terms of aesthetic. I really don't feel the look of the game. I hate the colour palette and everything looks so very washed out. Some areas are nice but others are absolutely digusting.
There are brilliant moments though. Dragon Barracks and all that shit leading up to the Princes boss fight is From level design, in terms of layout, at its absolute peak.
Gameplay feels alright. Unfortunately because they've sped everything up and made enemies more aggressive and attacking in numbers a lot of the weapons are now pretty much redundant. I started the game with the Broadsword and just stuck with that through most of the game. When I got a Claymore I decided to switch things up I found it completely useless in comparison to the Broadsword because it was just too slow in areas like the snowy place - and Claymore is a medium speed weapon. P lame 2bh. Game is dex or a fast R1 strength weapon or bust. Excluding the fact that loads of weapons are redundant now however, gameplay wise this is easily better than DeS, DaS1 and DaS2.
You can really feel that From didn't wanna make this game and only did it because of contract. It feels like a B-Team/A-Team hybrid. Miyazaki fixed what he could in the time he had but it's still pretty mediocre over all. Sadly it's still the second best game I've played so far this year, but that just goes to show how shitty the vidya game industry is now.

DaS1 = BB > DaS3 = DeS > DaS2
>>340285353
Wait I forgot one for phase 2. Where the right leg joins the trunk.
>>340285798
10/10 post.
I wish my brain worked as well as yours because these are my feelings exactly. Except I would add in the loss of magics improvements from 2, but besides that I agree with all of this. I really wanted to give NG+ a go, but I just can't bring myself too.
I hope if we're lucky it might get the treatment DS2 got and we get something like Scholar, but as you said, "You can really feel that From didn't wanna make this game and only did it because of contract". So I doubt they'll fix something they didn't want to make.
>>340286339
Not the picture I meant to post, but whatever.
“… Dark Souls is in some ways an incomplete game, and I like to think that it has been completed by players, by their discoveries, as they moved along. I’d love to say that the nature of this incompleteness was completely deliberate, but it is both deliberate and by accident, in different ways.”
lol

Well you never know. Maybe they cut the best parts/ideas of DaS3 out and saved it for the DLC. Plus they have more time to polish DLC as it's a much smaller chunk. At the very least we can expect the DLC to be harder than the base game, going by previous DLC releases. Another problem DaS3 has is the bosses are just way 2 ez. Only two bosses gave me trouble, and those were the princes and champion gundyr, but they still each took under ten tries. Most bosses I first tried which is p lame. Haven't fought Nameless King yet but I've heard he's meant to be a bitch.
>>340284131
i first tried him lol
YOU THINK WE'LL SEE FROM SOFTWARE'S NEW GAME AT E3?
I BELIEVE MIYAZAKI CAN BLOW US AWAY AGAIN
I HAVE FAITH IN HIM TEE BEE AICH
>>340287951
We will probably hear about the dlc
It seems that from software might have a vr game in the works, probably for sony.
Their owner, Kadowaka has an interest in VR, and from software were one of the groups listed under psvr's developers.
It would be cool if there was a new kings field like game or something
>>340287474
>it took ten tries
>easy
What? I usually quit a game if it takes that many tries for anything. It's usually not worth the reward.
>>340288095
if its not armored core vr they can fuck off with vr
>>340275651
>Art Style
Oh, you mean the "lets mash a bunch of inconsistent shit together and see what happens" art?
>The fashion
The sets were all awful and the ugly player models made it even worse.
>The feeling of despair in the game
>Le sad music XD Le majula XD Le everyone is le depressed XD
It feels plastic and forced as fuck. But it happens in all Souls games.
Only 2deep g4mes R ART! faggots think its actually well done.
I felt despair because of how awful the game looked.
>The bosses
Oh, you mean the armored dude in a square room with a giant weapon that he swings around like a baseball bat? Or the other armored dude in a square room with a giant weapon that sometimes uses magic?
Face it. The bosses are all awful and the worst part of DS2. The ones in the DLCs are worse because not only are they the most uninspired shit I've ever seen, but they are also awfully animated.
DS3 was a vast improvement over this.

>>340288873
Ah I'm sorry I didn't notice the under. I just read it as took ten tries.
I'm not feeling well anon, please no bully.
>>340285798
Now remove every connection you will never use and you'll have my largest complaint with DS3. It's a line.
no
>>340289269
nigga that's not even the point :/
I acknowledged that the two bosses that took (under) ten tries gave me 'trouble'. everything else was a first try though so overall most bosses were 2 ez.
but w/e bae

I knew this game wouldn't be opened world as soon as they said they were going to make it open world.
It turned out to be the most linear Souls to date. Holy fucking shit. Miyazaki is a fag.
>>340288095
>>340287951
Literally the same thing but from different perspectives
