I notice that while DeS and DaS2 are "great", they definitely aren't my favourite games in the series due to them either having game design issues or outdated mechanics.

>>
>>144430387
I don't agree.

The game being a direct sequel doesn't affect it's enjoyment for me.

The quality of the game rather, as a product, the way it challenges the player and introduces them.

I consider Bloodborne to have the smoothest combat, and best tonality.

I consider dark souls 1 to have the most twisting and enrapturing world design that draws players in like no other in the series.

I consider dark souls 3 to have the best pacing, that both introduces players to the games world, and test them as they continue onwards, climaxing with the end game, something I feel no other game in the series does.

But with Dark Souls 2? There are great aspects, but it feels a bit bloated, and demons souls is slightly limp nowadays in comparison to the new games, a lot of the bosses fall flat and the music isn't as great.

I've never really understood the "direct sequels" criticism.

it's a deep-time sci-fi setting with a lot of the Sufficiently Advanced Technology trope, with old tech being presented as magic in the mostly medieval society. As for realizing torturing is wrong, I've had no indication of that, but I've only read 2/4 books. He doesn't enjoy it, except that it's his job and he does it well.

Lothric Knight Sword has slightly worse damage and range, but it has much better moveset compared to the Dark sword. It also has better criticals, which makes it better for backstabs and ripostes. It is like Baller Swag Sword from DS1, but with better damage.

Are you accusing me of being some specific bogeyman? I've been fight with the last couple Events, I just think Gladiators was a shit one to do in DaS3, because there's just not the fashion support for it. Adding to that, if people are doing 1v1s, then it's fundamentally missing the point of the Gladiator Event to begin with.

It's poorly aping something that was successful in the past without understanding why it was successful.

>>144432239
Im pretty shit at the game but when I try to range people with heavy weapons they just roll one into me and then another roll+attack. If I roll to evade the attack they just run and start spamming once Im back up.
If I attack they just roll a third time and spam R1 while my attack is finishing. It feels hopeless trying to fight people with heavy weapons when rolling costs fuckall.

I still don't understand why FROM put literal shit that you can throw in the game.

I mean if you think about it, they had to have a meeting about that shit. Someone had to present that idea to a committee of board members and get it approved. Someone had to code it, someone had to make the art and the sound design for when it's thrown. They had to figure out the mechanics of how big the poopsplosion would be, how much toxic damage would be balanced, etc.

This was not a simple feat. A lot of thought must have gone into putting throwable poop in the game. Someone high-up had to say "you know what this game needs? Throwable poop. No, we can't finish this game unless we have throwable poop, we NEED that in this game!" And then they needed a group of adults to hear this and go "yeah you're right, this game DOES absolutely need throwable poop! We can't release the game until it is created and tested!"

Fuckin' japanese, man...

Why? They made the worst sword in DS1 the best in DS3. Why couldn't they give the wheel a major buff? It's not like the moveset is great, you should actually feel rewarded when you hit someone with it.

the point is to avoid the boring ass meta. if you like fighting people in only 1 level range, in only one arena, with the same ~25 weapons, no magic except weapon buffs, refined weapons, and caestuses in the offhand, then enjoy the circlejerk.

think of arrows as flat damage "buffs" to the base damage of the bow

so a lightning bow already does lightning and physical damage, so using lightning arrows just adds more lightning and physical damage to the total

are you playing on console or something? DS3 is alive and well. Granted, given its pvp system I don't expect it to have the longevity of DS2, but it's far from dead or even dying.

Yeah, I wasn't sure which to go for, I figured Dark Blade would be more thematic, but Flame Arc probably does more damage. Sucks they couldn't give it a WA to buff with both, had potential to make it one of the coolest weapons in the game, now it's a neutered turd.

i bundle those bosses into the pile of gimmicks that started amassing in ds2.

those bosses only get worse in later playthroughs, as they do and take more damage.

1 reason i feel ds3 is only slightly above ds2. since normal combat against standard enemies and bosses is more cheesy than fun. cause lets give all the enemies Combos, hyper armor during those combos, and super fast first attacks that fuck you unless your using a straight sword or rapier.

these are pvp problems, not invasion problems. although I suppose in "honorabru" duels sometimes you don't have to deal with estus punishing. I get estus too, and have more sips than them if I invade early enough, so I don't care.
