Is this old news?
What does it say?

>There was a man who was alive once and wore this mystical armor
>But he's dead now, and the armor has lost its luster and power
>Or perhaps......?
did we get any new item descriptions during that jap stream?
they'd be in jap obviously but surely we can con someone at reddit into translating them or something
>>135384473
It had some good mechanics which I am glad have been included in das 3.
It also had many bad mechanics which I'm glad will be gone.
>>135384473
LOLI agree.
>>135384473
I agree, got everyone butthurt for some reason.
>>135384506
jesus leave the nigga alone he just wants to share apples
>>135384374
>purple phantoms
>barely any greataxe/great hammer footage
>>135384501
Translation app on phone says somehing about Abyss Watcher armor
>>135384506
I can't wait to see footage of the Winged Knight Halberd.
Favorite halberd so far.
>>135384631
Those seem to be From's least favorite weapons.
>>135384473
Is is a phenomenon it even exists, after all the shit it went through during the dev process.
>>135384553
Maybe you give it to Iudleth(or whatever the name is) and the armor gets repaired.
>>135384698
>being this cucked by the b team
>>135384631
>greataxe
machete is in greataxe class so they will probably have this moveset
Can anybody who recorded the stream show the part where the From guy showed a close-up of the OST ? The names were clearly visible for a few seconds, but couldn't read them all.
>mob ganks
>humanoid enemies everywhere
>throwbacks to previous games
so das2 was blasted for this, will the same happen to 3?
>>135384631
this may be the greataxe moveset
>>135384786
I don't see many ganks on DaS3 so far, and most of the designs are pretty kewel.
By the way:git gud
>>135384631
From would remove STR weapons from their game if they could.
>>135384786
It's happened in every souls game.
Of course it'll happen in 3 as well. People just won't bitch about it as hard.
>>135384774
Well, to be fair the Exiled Greatsword has a fundamentally different (and much faster) moveset than the Claymore.
I dunno maybe it's a different weapon class?
>>135384374
>Fromdrone General
>>135384786
It's ok when Kobayashi does it
>>135384951
>Miyazaki finally gets his way and Dark Souls 3 has every weapon class but katanas deleted
>>135384995
I'm pretty sure that Exiled GS is a KUGS and not just GS.
They seem to be absolutely cuhrayzee in DS3.
>>135384995
Exiled Greatsword seems to be a curved GS like the Murakumo.
>>135385024
I want to talk about Armored Core.
>>135384995
Yes, it looks like a Curved Greatsword to me.
>>135385114
>KUGS
KUrved Greatsword
>>135385114
>2 full attacks in less than a second
jesus christ
>>135385114
KUGS?
>>135385197
Fromsoft owes us after absolutely horrible DS2 KUGS.
>>135385140
You still can without making it a Fromgames thread. People were talking about AC last night.
>>135385114
anymore gameplay with that sword?
>>135384501
My extremely limited Japanese is able to make out the words "Farron," "vest" and "chain" in that item description. It's probably the torso piece of the Abyss Watcher armor.
>>135385272
No. He just uses it to riposte Judex with generic curved ugs animation.
>>135385140
Then boy have I got the place for you >>134978796
>>135385396
>>135385256
I'm not the OP, though.
>>135385271
>Shiva's armour
>>135385441
Yes it's shiva's armour, slowpoke.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VxJ2xKBGrU4&feature=youtu.be
>>135384501
>>135385284
Most likely has the same description as the rest of the set.
>>135385534
>Shadow Set
>Not renamed to Spook Set
>>135385534
I hope they bring back Alonne's sword
>>135385596
I can already tell this bossfight will be on 4shits/gargs level of shittines.
>>135385596
>ugly helms that only work with the set
it's sentinel/loyce all over again
DeS HD when
>>135385596
Without reading the name I thought that the helm was the tip of a weapon, like a mace.
>>135384835
>Greataxe
>Slash
I hope the rest of them aren't like that
>>135385596
>vowed to partake of wolf blood
For what reason ?
>>135385596
>Vowed to take part in wolf blood
First dragons, now wolves.
FURRIES FUCK OFF
>>135385694
Loyce helm is the only interesting part of the set.
>>135385773
Never.
The answer will never not be never.
>>135385780
With the way DaS3 armor works, it means you'll cut straight through dexbabbies in robes
>>135385774
>>135385694
Yeah, they look kinda wierd.
>>135385793
Fear the old blood.
>>135385786
Because le Artorias
>>135384609
You sure those are apples? To me they look like skinned bloody skulls lol.
>>135385878
Sounds like wishful thinking.
In reality it will probably happen, same goes for Dark Souls 1.
>>135385956
This.
Everything in Dark Souls 3 is going to be reference after reference.
Where the rapier battle art webms at?
>>135384473
Glad I didnt play it so I can do so for the next few weeks til 3. My expectations are very low so I cant be dissapointed, and anything that happens to be good will just improve my experience.
>>135385786
Calling it now. They'll turn into wolfmen halfway through the fight.
>>135386045
He has low insight.
Here's what they showed in today's stream, in case anybody's interested.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Cab13htimb4
>>135386065
sotfs goes some way to fixing the infuriation the base game caused
it's nowhere near as atmospheric or gripping as the first but it's definitely a good game despite the shitposting
>>135385921
I thought they had kind of beak-like helmets on but now that I take another look they're actually all looking down and their helmets are more like big iron hats. That's lame.
>>135386245
>beak-like helmets
What
>>135386196
so this is how the PS4 lighting looks?
wow
>>135386386
Yeah, it's incredible isn't it.
Don't worry I'm sure it might look alright on PC, but don't expect to match the power of the PS4.
>>135386196
Ooh, sugoi. Eeeeh.
>people don't like the farron hat
>not going metal fedora + winged knight chestpiece + katana
>not being enlightened
>>135386520
If the winged knight chestpiece didn't make you fat I'd probably wear the whole set. I plan on using the halberd, but I don't want to be a fat fuck
>>135386092
>>135386045
Delicious red apples, freshly picked
>>135386520
>mixing a fedora with a religious armor
Shameful.
You're not truly enlightened, you don't deserve to be euphoric.
>>135386196
oooohhhhh
sugoi.
ooooh
What kind of PC would I need to have to run Dark Souls, with the following DSFix settings:
AA = 4
SSAO = 3
AO = SCAO or VSSAO 2
And if I were to set the DoF pyramid start value at 1080, by how much would it matter?
>>135386058
>wishful thinking
>Implying I don't want a DeS remaster
Sony owns the Demon's Souls IP, but Atlus has publishing rights in the US. Sony isn't going to fund a remaster of the worst-selling Souls game with the expectation that they can practically write off an entire region when they could just fund more Bloodborne.
The best we can realistically hope for is a direct port, and that's a longshot.
>>135386657
Her depression is contagious, she's killing my excitement for the game.
>>135386649
>Pillars of our community
>>135386358
Have a poorly drawn MS paint image to illustrate my point. Basically I thought the point rim part of the helmet went below the eyes but now I see they're actually above the eyes, like the rim of a hat you wear on top of your head.
>>135386196
>>135386063
>>135386662
>SSAO
Stop, this is a shit feature and looks awful while draining performance hard
>>135386451
PS4 got that RAM power and BLUERAY
>>135385921
>a legion of fedora wearing artorias wannabes
bravo, simply bravo
Best class for pure melee/quality? Knight has a lot of attunement and warrior has more luck, but warrior saves an extra point in int/fai. However, the attunement at least allows more FP, whereas the luck only becomes beneficial for poison/bleed/frostbite attacks, or arguably drop rate.
>>135386781
>this is a shit feature and looks awful while draining performance hard
I honestly didn't know, played it with the default stuff due to my previously outdated PC.
Also, another question: can I unlock the framerate? I know it used to cause some issues back then, but does it still do so? Will it impact any online play I have?
>>135386781
Man, that tracer effect looks so fucking bad.
Also, jesus christ that snap from the one handed to two handed after he stops the stance looks abysmal as well. I thought they got rid of those but here it fucking is.
>>135386781
It's time.
>>135386796
Take warrior just to not be another knight on release day.
Invading Lorthric is going to be literally nothing but knights. I'm going to get so fucking sick of that armor and the long sword.
>>135386958
B-but I like the tracer effect.
Opinions I guess.
>>135387002
>Take warrior just to not be another knight on release day.
Might as well take deprived and club smash their armors.
muh dick
>standard damage type is back
Why From, getting rid of it was one of the few things I liked in DaS2.
>>135387105
But warrior has higher STR so you could take warrior and just grab a club famalam
>>135387109
Fuck, that's cool
>>135387109
IGN video ?
>>135386887
This art makes me uncomfortable and I can't figure out why
>>135387380
Something about the faces.
>>135387547
it's the spit
>>135386887
Unlocking the frame rate helps FPS and does nothing harmful, it's always good
Setting max FPS to 60 can make some jumps impossible and will freeze you at a bonfire if you instantly rush to kindle / unhollow, you can ignore this by pressing backspace, this toggles 30/60 fps lock
Also if you have DSWatchdog (you should), press F9 to hide the overlay in-game, it hurts FPS
>>135387613
Yeah, looking at it again it looks a little too much like sperm.
>>135387693
Christ you're right.
Who's this?
The pygmy?
The vendor i accidently killed?
Also Sif was fucking useless but he's cool so it's ok.
>>135387790
She's Dusk of Oolacile.
You should have talked to the mushroom.
>>135385498
My. Fucking. Dick.
I hate how they took out being able to dual wield two different weapns, but if this is what we get instead I'm all for it. Dual wield no shield playthrough here I come.
>>135387875
You can still dual wield weapons, you just can't powerstance them.
Powerstance was shit anyway, nothing but a waste of stamina.
>>135385498
These looks great. Dex weapon, perhaps?
>>135386734
She has a point.
>>135388014
>Hammers are finally good, they even have a cool twin wielded weapon
>make them DEX
Miyazaki wouldn't fucking DARE. If he did that shit STR players would fucking lynch him. He's been fucking us for too long.
>>135388014
Hammers have never been dex based in any game.
>>135388014
they'll be D/E or D/D without gems
source: my ass
>>135388014
>Dex weapon, perhaps?
Kill yourself, Dex players already had everything to themselves in DaS. How greedy can you faggots be?
>>135388161
There was a Dex axe in DaS, and it was the best one in the game, don't count From's strength hatred out.
>>135388008
It was alright for heavy weapon damage-maxing, beyond that pretty pointless
If they'd actually put some effort in and gave more than one weapon a unique powerstanced moveset it would be a solid mechanic
>>135388083
>>135388161
>>135388238
Hey, calm down. I'm not on either side, I just noticed there's a lot of twirly shit going on with them. Believe me, I want them to be STR more than anyone.
>>135387693
>>135387764
Not surprising. Carim knights are such cucks that they probably suck lots of dicks.
That's a big bow
>>135388323
I'm not angry, I just said that hammers are never dex.
>>135388379
>Carim knights spend their lives dedicated to only one woman.
>But no ones said they couldn't suck cock.
Loopholes, and buttholes.
>>135388453
It is only human to commit a sin.
>>135388390
People that wear that armor are the best!
>>135388575
The best at being GAY
lmao
>>135388571
He's a pervert isn't he.
>>135387380
Lautrec's Helmet looks weird.
>>135388827
You look weird
is this Artorias gf
>>135388963
Kill her, she's pointless and drops good stuff.
>>135389065
This she's a worthless whore who gets cucked by Sif.
>>135388963

So is avelyn still worth it? I just realized I haven't seen anyone use them in ds2 since god knows how long, and I pvp regularly now. I just picked this game up couple of months ago, before that I only played at release for not too long, and remember all that whine. Did it get nerfed or something?
>>135389789
It's too late i gave her Arty's soul and then ran away and died and now she's not there.
>>135390015
it was nerfed to literally "you died" tier
fuck ds2 for destroying a few fun weapons it had
how do i get good at pvp? picked the game this week and finished the main content, doing slumbering dragon now, still an area with optional bosses on the snow area, but i think at this point i should be able to win against A SINGLE opponent at least
i feel like strenght builds simply arent worth it
too much to swing, too much to move, by the time i think about attacking people are already punishing
>>135390146
What's the current DaS2 meta anyway?
>>135390186make an estoc + havel's greatshield turtle, you only need 45 str
>>135390274
Dual ladle, don't forget to equip the Life Ring for maximum carnage
>>135390274
The current meta is filtering tripfaggots.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MZz3lA7OgJA&feature=youtu.be&t=470
>>135390882
Are you not aware that spook is a synonym for spy?
>>135390978
i thought it was slang for blacks
>>135390978
I thought it was a synonym for nigger
Which is a synonym for spear chucker
and coon
and tar baby
and coal troll
mud blood
"youth"
didndu nuffins
I mean African Americans.
>>135390274
I'm not sure, looks like either magic or hexes, with some faith utility mixed in if stats allow, then some buffed rapemachine of your choice in your hands, and some nickname like "ayy lmao" or "filthy casual". That's the majority of guys I encounter at least, I mean not counting those without any specific builds or goals, those guys clearly didn't want to pvp in the first place, I mean the kind in heavy armor with fuckhuge shields fatrolling without any vig investment.
>luck build

>>135389065
>>135389134
Fuck off heartless retards
>>135391460
It's not
>>135391587
She's the most pointless and unremarkable character in the game, she doesn't have a bit of personality.
There's also no advantage in keeping her alive.
>>135391127
there might be a weapon that scales with luck like in DeS.
>female in dark souls 2 is both feminine and atletic
>female in dark souls 3 is a literal feminist mainly when hollow
>>135391608

>>135388390
For you.
>>135391834
>female in dark souls 2 is both feminine and atletic
She's a direct reskin of the male model.
i want to buy dark souls... when will there be a sale on steam? i have the base game on ps3 but want the whole package on pc. really want to try out the dlc
>>135391834
>literal feminist
what the fuck does this mean
>>135391245
>>135391301
Oh fuck, I forgot about poison
so luck + poison arrows + fast poison weapons? I can literally be the dick-ass thief?
>>135391373
shut up frogposter and go minmax your knight/merc
>>135391961
It means she's a feminist in the Souls universe.
Which doesn't make sense because I don't think voting exists in Lordran or Lothric etc.
>>135391725
There's no advantage in killing her either, edgelord. Respect Artorias and his legacy.
>>135391973
nah m8 luck + bleed is whee its at.
Is the Painting Guardian sword worth the twinkling? It is really fast and does bleed too, but its expensive to buff.
>>135391946
probably close to when DS3 will be released.
>>135391946
it's 9usd on g2a, includes the dlc
>>135392115
good damage and bleed, fast as fuck for offloading a buff
but the range is too small, use it for pve and a scim or falchion buffed for pvp
if you don't buff then gold tracer is better
Will i be able to play DS3 in the same machine i played DS1 and 2?
>>135392121
>stolen games
No thanks
>>135392090
>There's no advantage in killing her either
You can keep Artorias' soul + her weapons and armor.
>>135391961
Wears problem glasses and posts dumb things online
>>135391946
Check the humble store every day. It went on sale a few weeks back.
>>135391838
It looked great.
>>135392086
I'd say that the souls games are pretty feminist because men and women are equally likely to get murdered.

>>135392764
You're still being an edgelord. You're supposed to care about the characters and the world.
>>135391973
Sounds like my unfinished SotFS character.
Sanctum Knight Gauntlets and chest, Old Knight legs and helmet, Old Knight Shield, Sanctum Mace, shortbow with poison arrows, poison Channelers Trident. Was also debating getting enough dex to use the Spotted Whip and those poison katanas dual wielded. The fashion souls was off the charts, named him Bismuth... good times.
>>135393038
>i'm not cheap
>s-sale when
kek, whatever bud
>>135393082
I think both songs fit just as well.
>>135393195
I'm actually a different person, and I do care about the characters and world. It's just that the plot stops having as much of an impact after the first time around and there are technical advantages to killing certain characters. They come back in your next NG+ cycle anyways, so it doesn't even have lasting in-universe impact.
>>135393212

How do I counter Scythes in PvP? Last time I asked I got some niggerbabble about 'get up in dey grill and jump dose niggas' but seriously, I can't seem to beat anyone. PS4 btw
>>135392263
Post specs.
>>135393613
You mean on Dark Souls 2?
Scythes suck, just play normally.
I just want to know the softcaps and usefulness of all the stats...
Incidentally, do we know if two-handing works like DaS or DaS2? As in, at 27 strength, two handing gives you 40 str to meet weapon requirements and 40 str worth of scaling, whereas in 2 two handing 27 str let's you meet 40 str requirements, but still only gives you 27 str worth of scaling?
Convoluted explanation but I don't know how else to put it...
>>135393480
If you have anything equal or above a gtx550ti and an i3 you'll be fine.
>people picking Deprived unironically

Seriously? Scythes have no tracking, no manual aiming ability, are pretty slow and have very strict sweetspot. Just run into the opponent and trade and that's it.
>>135393871

>>135394089
you mean the worst, right?
if you respec to a sorc you have 10 dumped into faith and luck
if you go str you have 10 in luck, int AND faith
>>135394035
>Faith/Int build
>>135394089
Base 10's in magic stats and luck means you will always have wasted stats on a quality build.

nope
dark weapon for example scales purely with faith and has no int reqs
>>135394303
right now there are 4k players. no way they're all offline.
>>135394218
There seem to be a shitload of pure physical weapons that require at least 9-10 in magic or faith.
>>135394295
Fuck Pyros man
Anyway I'll probably see which is more fun, but more than likely my first actual runthrough will be a 2h greathammer run since my Demon's Greathammer run in Dark souls 1 was fucking amazing
>Eastern Set returns
>So does Shadow Set
>And that rare lance from Dark Souls 2 as well
Great. So which armors and weapons from previous games AREN'T they including in Dark Souls 3?
It's really sad how like at least 80 percent of the loot discovered by all the e-celebs/journalists in the first two areas of the game (High Wall of Lothric, Undead Settlement) are fanservice loot.
Miyazaki said that Dark Souls 3 will have 200 different weapons. Of these 200, how many are brand new?
>>135394381

>>135394527
I am just hoping the family masks make a return. Those things looked amazing.
>>135394527
I really do not mind if all old armors return. Well, except some shit like rusted variations, like DS2 did. I love fashion in my souls games.
>>135394408
Does the requirement scale the physical damage at all though? And perhaps those requirements/scaling come in to play when the weapons are infused? For example, Astoras straight sword has a faith requirement but no magic/lightning damage, perhaps when infused it gains a much bigger scaling for lightning etc than a regular longsword would?

>without spoiling anything
They've already spoiled a ton of stuff by showing the loading descriptions and all the shit by the NPCs like Yuria, Yoel and Morne and shit.
>>135394653
I prefer new meme gear. Dark Souls 1 did a fantastic job by introducing meme masks. Let's see if Miyazaki can create something that is of fresh new meme quality once again in this game, instead of reusing older memes.
>>135394667
I'm okay with older armor as long as the number of older armors don't equal or outweigh the number of newer armors.
>>135394690
>Does the requirement scale the physical damage at all though
No, but they will fuck you over if you will try to use weapon without them like abyss gs in DS1. Weapon will just bounce from everything.
>>135394921
Hate all you like, but those masks were fun. There wouldn't be a single edgy try hard bitching if the mother mask looked like the Dark Mask instead.
>>135395116
I am fine with something new too. Just want something along the family and burger king mask line.

>They've already spoiled a ton of stuff by showing the loading descriptions and all the shit by the NPCs like Yuria, Yoel and Morne and shit.
there's no fucking way vaati went through the convoluted process of getting yuria to appear AND got passed the cursewood in order to do sigmiers quest without prior knowledge
many people didn't even get to the boss, and only a handful beat it
yet vaati had time to do both and fuck around in firelink
>>135393613
Best tactic is to get up in dey grill and jump dose niggas
>>135394527
The Know leak mentioned 100 new weapons, so by that logic we can expect to have 100 weapons from the other two previous games.
>>135395317
Apparently a lot of those at the event spent 99% of their time either backtracking or attacking walls looking for secrets. It's possible Vaati just didn't care about that and ran forward most of his run.
>>135395317
The event Vaati went to was a different one to all the other meme e-celebs and he had more time at that.
>>135395317
Didn't Vaati Shillya get like 6 hours to play the game whereas everyone else got like only 3?
so how's salt and sanctuary?
i get that it's a shameless souls ripoff but it also looks a lot like metroidvania and a better one than things like valdis story
>go full luck + whatever increases mana first run

I'm ready to have fun.
>>135396165
We don't know if poison wouldn't scale with attack multiplier in DaS3. If it would, multi hit attacks would not apply much more bleed or poison than normal.
>>135396165
This is purely why I am going warrior over knight first time. I'm relying on the fact that weapon arts will be used infrequently so the low attunement won't bother me, and that stuff like the flamberge/sanctum mace will be available and worthwhile. It's just so much fun to have brute force AND some debilitating tactics. God forbid if half these weapons have some int/fai requirements, though. Or there's some basass poison pyromancies that need them.
Do pyromancies still only gain damage from int/fai and don't have requirements? I can't wait for some Poison Mist shenanigans.
>>135396614
>and that stuff like the flamberge/sanctum mace will be available and worthwhile
Wait what the fuck they confirmed Sanctum Mace?
You sure you're not mixing something up? I think the only poison weapon we've seen so far is Astor's Spear.

>No its not confirmed, I was just giving examples of heavier weapons with bleed/poison attributes.
Yeah, I misunderstood your post cause we've already seen Flamberge, so I jumped to a conclusion that Sanctum Mace is confirmed as well.
>What's this astors spear though?
It's this >>135398626, you get it from the Curse Rotted Greatwood's soul.
Shame it doesn't have the charge WA like the default spear though.
>>135398626
Nice. Shame it's dex focused. Will still work great on my quality guy.
>>135398768
Flamberge is the toothed saw blade this time as opposed to the wavy blade from 1, right? I'd fucking love the Sanctum Mace to be in again, or a similar hammer/lance weapon, poison or no.

Bleed is way better in ds1 but situational, mostly for pvp although you can bleed out a few bosses. Gold Tracer + Lifehunt.
Poison is way better in ds2.

I only know poison only from poison arrows DaS2 I carried for the shrine level, it was alright against the sorcerers, but I wonder if I could go with a fast melee weapon and how fast it would apply the poison
or go bleed if poison is shit, just want to test something different until DaS3 arrives

Right here. You literally said sales numbers = active players.

If sales on platform A are higher than the active players on platform B this means that platform A has more active players.

It's good but you know this is a game that's going to be free with PS+ some time so just wait unless you're impatient.

DS2 fans will most likely give up on DS2 and admit that it's shit once they play DS3.
Mono-platform shitters will finally realize how much these games have to offer, and how little Dark Souls 2 offers in comparison.

You can't cite player numbers ergo there are none, if you cite seeing 5 summon signs then there are 6 players. Sorry buddy but thats just how the world works, statistics beat assumptions no matter how much you like your 500 dollar BB machine

Poison arrows are 60k, and a full stack is easily used in one session. Having to whip some tree in Shulva every time your shit breaks from jars or beetles is not a good solution for obvious reasons.

Nigga you dum.
As I said before, making mountains out of molehills for the sake of making something else looks worse doesn't really work that often, it tends to work even less if you are talking to people who know jack or shit about the subject.
Your hyperbole of I NEED 999 ARROWS TO CLEAR ONE AREA only serves to convince me that you are still a retard bitching about a non issue for the sake of bitching about it.

>>135404427
One play session you mong. If you spend a few hours co-oping in Amana etc. you are going to use a lot of arrows.
I'll reiterate, co-op is my thing and no doubt I've spent far more hours doing it in just that game than you have spent playing the entire franchise. I know what is and isn't counter-productive to me, and SM most certainly isn't.
>>135404921
Why? It's not like there's anything else to talk about.
You know what guys? Go for it. Ramp it all the way up to 110%, shitpost as hard as you want with any topics you care to shitpost about. In just one more week this general will be fucking vacant, except for people who will actually be talking about the game.

Why would you use more than 4 poison arrows per enemy?
Even the areas with the most enemies won't even come close to eating 100 arrows per area.
Again you are doing literally nothing but proving that you are bitching about hyperbole for the sake of bitching about it.

Basically what I'm saying is that doing any sort of PvP where you get summoned into another world as a phantom means you won't hollow if you die (you will still drop a bloodstain if you invaded a player and died, but you won't become hollow and enemies won't respawn)
There is also the rings you can get that prevent hollowing if you really want to summon phantoms into your world to PvP them, and Vendrics Blessing after you beat everything
Serious question
Is the Smelter Demon a well-designed boss or is it artificial difficulty incarnate? He seems like one of the more memorable bosses in the game, he kicked my ass 10+ times when most bosses took 1 or 2 tries.
>>135406858
>Is the Smelter Demon a well-designed boss or is it artificial difficulty incarnate?
Neither, it's just a lame boss.

Smelter Demon was one of the few bosses I enjoyed in DS2 and that's because it had the one good track of the entire OST.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=u6IETf-vuxA
>>135406858
He's just a typical DS2 lame humanoid boss with a thrusting attack, 3-4 hit combo and wide sweep. A little better designed and harder than others, but generic and lame nonetheless.

Jesus, these fuckers give me nightmares.
I'm almost done playing through Dark Souls for the first time and I have to say I consider it a masterpiece. How's Dark Souls 2? Seems like its polarizing.
I didn't want to use the Zweihander when I found it because I remember people saying long ago it was OP or something, but it was too much fun, I couldn't resist. I love the feeling of smashing the shit out of some enemy as he's winding up to hit and either staggering him or making him hit the floor. Or taking a giant swing and wiping out a group of people. I don't know if I want to go dex on DaS2 to change it up but I kind of feel like playing the same way with a giant weapon since it's very comfortable for me. How are STR weapons in general?

This is why I'm actually pretty okay with getting the game late. I'm not going to spoil any of the lore/world/story stuff, but I absolutely want to plan my character ahead and min/max like the autistic faggot that I am. I'm gonna spend the weeks between JP and NA release finding the items and gear I want to use and planning out my exact build/stats.

Dark Souls 2 is a shot in the dark, some people hate it, some people love it, you can't know until you play. I guess the majority agrees that the first one is better, me includes, but 2 is okay.
I also consider DS1 a masterpiece since I try to look at the package as it is, and besides Bed of Chaos the game is very good, even with the rushed meme or the cut content.
>>135410103
Countries, equipment, a shitton of npcs, constant DS1 lore throwbacks like an identity of Allfather Lloyd or details of Dusk's childhood. And overall DS3 feels like a direct continuation of DS1 themes and not of retarded stuff from DS2.
You really can't fucking compare the number of DS2 and DS1 stuff in DS3.
>>135410239

The only thing you can compare is the first few hours you fuckwit. Who knows how many 'references' to both games we will see, given the amount of shit that is already in the first few hours DaS3 will probably be HEY GUYS YOU REMEMBER OUR PREVIOUS GAMES-meme edition.
There is nothing to be excited about, it will be old dragonslayer: the game.

You'll change your mind after playing DS3.
>>135411421
It's like they somehow lost everything they created and had to remake the game in like 3 months. I've had never seen a downgrade so severe before.

For anybody who has pre-ordered the JP version, where did you buy the PSN cards? The cheapest I can find is £55... considering console games sell for £35-45 normally, I'd like to spend a little less...

>>135386196
Some takeways from this video:
Rapiers are still for fags and ladyboys
Perseverance (mace weapon art) is NOT 100% stagger immunity. After 3 hits from Iudex whith the buff up, the character was staggered. It must just be a massive bonus poise modifier and not true hyperarmor.
Dagger dash confirmed to not have its distance or recovery penalized by being used without FP.
Iudex's HP is much higher than all previous footage, as is the amount of stamina he drains when the player blocks his attacks and the amount of damage he deals.
>>135412017
The earliest ones ran on PCs, i remember people saying that they literally crashed into Windows on E3.
>>135411778

>>135412229
We knew that the difficulty had been reduced, but to exactly what extent and through what means weren't really clear. From this it's sort of obvious that the overall reduction to difficulty in the demo version was really substantial. The fact that the boss drains more stamina when guarded is especially an important thing

No DS3 can happen because DS2 set up the world to repeat itself, the story that is set up in DS1 ends when DS1 ends and that is all there ever was to it.

how good is pyromancy in das2? is it like das1 where you just have to upgrade the flame?
>>135410784
>Lords of cinder
No, that's a new thing unrelated to DKS1.
Dark souls 1 had a singular Lord of cinder. And you killed him. What a jerk.
Multiple Lords of cinders are only possible if Gwyns soul could be passed down through cycles, which dark souls 2 established can and does happen. That's why you can get gwyns soul from the Old Iron King.
>>135412570
Did you get the ember out of the depths then give it to Andre?
>>135412624

You're right.
Why was Linking the Fire made canon anyway?
Is Age of Man really that retarded?
>>135413009
I'll include a trigger warning next time, just for you.
>>135413089
>repeating textures are a thing even in DLC
>>135413101
they didn't. what makes you think an age of dark would be permanent?
>>135413101
It's canon because even if you personally didn't link the fire, someone who came after you eventually would have.
>>135413270
The DLC areas are very immersive, I can almost feel all the bricks around me.
>>135413101
>>135413303
There's nothing to say that the age of dark actually happened.
Embers of the first flame remain, and it just takes any old undead to rekindle it. They couldn't have faded completely or else dark souls 2 wouldn't have happened (Nor dark souls 3, I'm guessing)
For the age of dark to happen, the flame needs to die out completely. Just because you killed gwyn and walked away doesn't mean that someone else didn't stop by shortly after and link it. Probably some schmuck frampt lured in behind your back.
Either way, the flame never fully died. It's been rekindled time and time again. The age of dark never truly happened.
>>135412624
You forgot the shit story.
>>135413627
Dark Souls II's story is as good as Dark Souls I's.
Faith slut here, how do you think miracles will work in DS3 now that we are seeing shit like this?
In DS1 the sunlight blade was nice and not zap zap annoying like in DS2.
There is healing, force, divine, lightning, and sunlight types of miracles across the games, how will this all work in DS3 you think?
I personally hope all damage is called divine and not lightning.
>>135413571

It was shit, nothing but a cheese machine for PvE and useless junk for PvP.
I can't find a dark souls 2 save editor for the life of me, anyone care to point me in the right direction?
>>135413992
he's talking about visual effect which is much better in ds1
Darkmoon blade was pretty too.
>IGN shows off the mercenary
>they literally, explicitly call it the wual-wielding class
>the assfaggot behind the controller never figures that you can actually dual-wield the fucking thing and just 1Hs it through the whole video
Who even let these people play the game? I can't believe that these shitheads are unironically paid to do this.

Not trying to shill or anything, but is anyone here interested in that indie game Necropolis to soothe the itch until DaS3 releases?
A friend of mine told me to check it out on youtube, so I did, and the gameplay looks alright to hold my interest for maybe a week or something. It's very similar to soulsborne, and it's also co-op.
And it has permadeath always enabled, which is not optional.
Oh, and it comes out tomorrow on steam.
>>135413992
I was talking about visuals and sound.
It wasn't neon yellow with ear rape.
>>135414280
I've been playing pvp for years and I've never been hit by a sunlight spear, not once.
Sunlight spears are kinda like greatshields, when someone uses them you know they're bad.
>>135414265
He does dual wield eventually though. Their class showcases have been fucking garbage however so I agree.
>>135413227
>He corrected me, he must be triggered

Fine, be an ignorant laughing stock, see if I give a shit.

>>135411412
Guardbreak to riposte.
360 degree rolls as a concept. Seems to have been perfected in das 3.

So how to get jp version of dark souls 3 on a us ps4?
>>135414583
Naw, he figures out how to use the weapon art, but he never figured out that you can actually pull out the second curved sword and access the full dual-wield moveset.
Speaking of being garbage, they manage to go through the entire pyromancer showcase without ever casting fireball. The idiot behind the controller thought L2 was the only casting button and somehow never realized that poking something with a flame hand isn't a fireball.
Why didn't they just get someone who had a basic understanding of the control scheme to do these showcases? I cannot even fathom it.
>>135414280
Buff builds trade a shitton of points in stats that matter for 1 minute damage buff that can be kited via a whole shitload of methods.
It's fucking trash.
>>135414697
Oops, I misread.
>>135414818
this desu
>>135413010
>The flow of time itself is convoluted
Which is a thing that happens toward the end of each cycle.
>>135413837
I just hope for more variety. In 1 there were the blade and spear miracles, most of the other shit was either very conditional or just plain useless, there were so few offensive ones. In 2 there were a bunch of lightning miracles but half of them weren't worth shit. Hexes are kind of offensive miracles ish but you can't do shit with them if you're pure faith, also a bit more support for them would be nice, so far Souls DLC has a tendency to add new spells, hexes, and pyromancies while giving a huge middle finger up the eurethra to the miracles.
>>135414456

>>135415803
Nothing is wrong with Katanas and Spears, both are good PvP weapons and perfectly acceptable in comp. The emphasis is on non memetic builds and no bullshit that can be abused on a poor connection (deadangling etc)

Every dark souls can do that, that doesn't mean it's the most effective.
It is however pretty stable. Great for a first playthrough. Just get the minimum requirements, infuse a weapon, and then start pumping health/stamina/equip load really early.

>Tfw trying to fight the sanctuary garden with tunnel vision
i dont what the fuck is happening
>>135416370
I could understand if the person playing was experienced and knowledgable and had a clear focus to their showcase, but they don't
The description of their cleirc video is something like "learn to make miracles with the cleric" and what do they do? They never cast a single miracle. They don;t even use the mace's art or 2H it at any point.
In fact, I'm fairly certain their player didn't even know how to 2H their weapon. In the later showcases, where they finally discovered weapon arts, they unequipped their shield in order to use them instead of just 2Hing it.
The fact that somebody who LITERALLY doesn't understand the basic controls of the game is skipping the tutorial messages that explain those basic controls is just mind-boggling.

You won't flip around with 61 poise or have 45 cast speed pyros or poisestab people with crystal kumo. Your build won't be able to handle real top tier setups and most viable tactics, you will trade them for shitty useless buffs.

Mah boi
>>135417009
How? A couple months ago it was working just fine, now after I redownloaded it, I have to lower the resolution to even get it working, and whenever there's fire, it boots me off the game due to insufficient FPS.
Did the update do this? Yes, I redownloaded DSFIX.
>>135418328
I actually got the idea from that webm, to be completely honest. I've never worn the full set, nor have I ever used the Burial Blade.
>>135415731
Looks ugly, plastic and untextured.
>>135418074
Left and middle have never touched the game, though left pretends (very poorly) to be an expert so she can pretend she has "gamer cred" and legitimacy that goes beyond having a nice pair of tits and giving her boss a mean blowjob.
Middle is a know-it-all who doesn't really know much of what he's talking about and tries his best to direct and control the conversation on a topic he knows nothing about in an extremely flimsy attempt at appearing professional. He's probably the friend of the guy who got his dick sucked by left in order to be there.
Right is literally the only person at IGN who actually plays and enjoys souls games whatsoever and who has any idea of what she's talking about. If they were a competent news outlet, she'd be doing all of their DaS3 coverage herself as she's literally the only person there who knows enough about the games to do it.
>>135417640
I'd much rather just get the info. She exaggerates way too much.
