why do people here say that dark souls III is bad? its on par with 1
it has excellent music, atmosphere and improved combat over 1
the world is a little too linear but its not as bad as some make it out to be
all in all a very good souls game (unlike 2 wich is one of the worst games i have ever played)
Why do people here say that dark souls III is bad? its on par with 1
Because everyone shat on DS2 when it was the new game so now that 3 is the newest we have to hate it and pretend DS2 was good for good boy contrarian points.
Every Souls game is only a reinterpretation of Demon's Souls.
Now imagine what a rehash of a rehash of a rehash looks like, and that's DS3.
It's not bad, it's simply unoriginal.
DS2 was different and got shit.
DS3 is more of the same and it gets shit.
You just can't win when we talk about a popular franchise except when it has a loyal, forgiving fanbase, like Nintendo or Blizzard.
>unlike 2 wich is one of the worst games i have ever played
So you're a teenager and you always play AAA games, ok.
We need more casual faggots like you here, not enough Reddit as it is. Call your friends.
>pretending that 2 was good
seethe dilate and cope tranny
>good music
>linear progression
I'm pretty sure the people who have 1k hour playing ds3 does not care much about any of these.
Kid, you never played a bad videogame in your short, pathetic life. If you think DS2 is one of the worst games you ever played then you're a massive fucking faggot or simply a child, this being Zig Forums it could go either way but the fact that you use buzzwords to insult me tells me you're underage, so:
Let the adults handle serious opinions, go back to watch your Youtube or whatever shit you do these days and shut the fuck up.
i think we all need to go back to shitting on DS2 because my god that game deserves it.
>being this mad over one of the worst games ever made
embarrassing
it was my first ds game, played all of them after and still think 3 is the best
>does nothing new
>terrible invasion mechanics
>too many gimmicky cheese only bosses
>weapon arts are useless in PvE
>FP system makes magic really weak
3 is the best. deal with it faggots
You wouldn't say that after playing Bloodborne. BB is much much better than DS3.
Hallway Souls 3
>first ds game
you have to be 18 to post here user. you know nothing of the days of the forest and the golf club iron bridge meta.
NOOOOOO DS2 WASN'T GOOD NO NO NOOOOO
why does there need to be 2(maybe 3?) bluenigger covenants? makes being an invader suffering.
"oh boy sure can't wait to fight this host in honorable 1v1 co-"
>bluenigger has invaded
"well I can handle a 2v1 it's not so"
>bluenigger has invaded
"oh come on that's not even fa-"
>bluenigger has died
>bluenigger has invaded
>bluenigger has died
>bluenigger has invaded
>bluenigger has died

I started playing DaS 2 again with a friend recently and it wasn't as bad as I remember it. Magic is actually really viable. DaS 3 is the superior solo experience though, I think solo DaS 2 is too annoying.
NOOOOOOOO THIS CAN'T BE Zig Forums TOLD ME DS2 IS SHIT!!!!!!!!!!!!
DS2 was absolutely fine, it had it's own set of issues but what souls game doesnt.
>BU-BU BUT GANKSQUADS
Dark Souls 3 did it worse.
>B-BU-BUT MUH INTERCONNECTION CONSISTENCY
It's a VIDEO GAME. They prioritized gameplay and environmental diversity over pandering to your autism.
>B-B-B-BUT BROKEN HITBOXES
Literally every Souls game has them.
Dark Souls 2 is the best Dark Souls PERIOD.
>least linear in the series
>most diverse environments in the series
>longest in the series
>most amount of weapons in the series
>most amount of armor and customization in the series
>biggest build variety in the series
>most amount of magic/miracles/hex/pyros
>best online mode in the series
>easiest to start a build in the series
>best girls in the series
>best and most SOULful covenants
>dual wielding and power stance
>respec
>offers rewards for fun challenges such as no death run
>NG+ has new enemies/items/events and some remixed bosses
>the only game in the series which doesn't force you to grind
>3 weapon slots in each hand
>4 ring slots
>reddit hates it
QOL improvements introduced by Dark Souls 2
>you can skip logos at startup (without mods)
>R3 to jump
>you can choose how many of the same item you want to consume at the same time
>weapon durability bar below weapon icon
>inventory items displayed in grids instead of list
>climb ladders faster and being able to let go of ladders
>roll through doors to open them faster
>can turn a specific area to NG+ mode (Bonfire Ascetic)
>can continue your playthrough after beating the last boss and can choose when to start NG+
>controller vibrates when summoned
it suffers from rushed development, it should have been given at least an additional year
>good reviews means its good
OH NO NO NO
only thing i disagree with is the hitbox thing, think 1 and 3 had much better hit boxes.
imagine playing games in 20 fps
DS2 definitely isn't 'one of the worst games,' but it is the worst Souls game.
user, why does it anger you so much some people like a game you dont like? i like ds2 more than ds3
having circle be the run button is the most retarded thing in video game history. you literally can't move your camera while running unless you claw grip, which I fucking do, which every competitive player has to do since running while moving the camera is pretty fucking necessary in pvp
yeah the performance is shit, but its still a good game. but it's getting a PC announcement on thursday
seriously what other game got gimped as hard as ds3 when it came to shit getting cut unfairly
That's where the Steam controller comes in handy.
it doesn't anger me at all
i pity plebians like you
lets pray you're right. cause if you are, then im gonna put my dick in my own ass
People pretend to hate it, mostly for being derivative.
There's some genuine complains about the game, like it being too dodge reliant with how often bosses swing with little cool down or the game being too linear, but shitters on Zig Forums haven't actually played it so they parrot DS2fags. Vast majority of people like DS3
keep your pity, i enjoyed it i just want to know why it bothers you
>playing dark souls with a controller
incels don't really do this do they?
DaS2fags' hateboner caused this. They couldn't shat on DaS or DeS so they decided to shat on DaS3. Well they can shat on Bloodborne now after PC release.
That's a valid opinion and I can respect that.
There's a big difference between what you just said and what that child was saying.
I don't do well with faggotry like that.
It's popular. So now Zig Forums contrarians pretend to love DSII and hate DSIII. It's all so tiresome
It's not bad it's just the most casual baby shit game in the entire series. The proof is in the pudding, it's not a coincidence that everyone that defends this game is a mid to late 90's baby. If the game was actually challenging in the slightest, they'd shit on it, like literally every other game. These retards couldn't even beat Sekiro they were so quick to shit on the game after an hour of playing. yeah, they're that fucking bad.
thats fair enough to say
>There's a big difference between what you just said and what that child was saying.
>I don't do well with faggotry like that.
user consider some other way to celebrate because IT IS coming for sure and you won't be able to enjoy with a broken penis.
>why yes i play games for the challenge how can you tell?
This is false. DaS2 doesn't even allow you to enter other pathways until you finish one you entered. Thanks to stone statues lmao.
Linear, all grey and brown, it's just a rushed bloodborne reskin but with constant member ds1 fan service, for all its flaws ds2 had ambitions and variety, this one just reeks of contractual obligations and deadlines from bamco
how do you know its true? i want to believe, i really want to play this fukken game
nigger dark souls wasn't even available on pc for a while. are you admitting that you're a zoomer who played it on pc for the first time?
Holy shit it's the wojak autist! Long time no see, pal!
How you doing lately? Uncovered any conspiracies or anything like that?
I noticed you did not quote my first words, why is that? Are you getting sloppy or maybe you approve of what I said?
Ah, my dear autismo-kun, if only you could speak.
>all grey and brown
play the game first ds2 autist
Dark Souls 3 is one of the most casual games I have ever played
>nigger
>zoomer
>controller user
embarrassing
whatever nigger
seething manchild
Bloodborne isn't best Souls game. It's a very watered down Souls game.
>it's another thread where das2 and 3 fags fight over which is the second worst instead of the worst in the series
just wait user, soon my child.
but bloodborne is the worst
All soulsgroid games are obsolete after Sekiro
>tries to be Bloodborne way too much and way too often
>armor is useless
>shields are useless
>tries to have the soul of DS1 way too much and way too often
>constant references, almost nothing original (outside the second dlc)
>terrible PvP, arena or invasions
>linear as fuck maps (you can diverge paths like 2 or 3 times in the whole game, lmao)
>no real build diversity, magic is terrible and thus you are left with Str, Dex or Qual
>because of the last 2 points you have no replayability, no real reason to play the game again
Well, at least the boss fights are cool, and your first time playing it is very nice too. But that's it, now that the multiplayer is dead, I can't bring myself to go back to it.
Yeah, I recently finished Dark Souls 3 (not including the DLC) a few weeks ago for the first time, and I thought it was worse than Dark Souls 1 (though definitely not a bad game, nor even a bad souls game), but personally I felt it was too derivative with people like Andre popping up, as well as re-using Firelink and Anor Londo and even the Sunbro covenant (though I know that plays into the themes of the game it still somewhat pulls me out of the experience, especially since it doesn't fit nicely with the fire rejecting ending of Dark Souls 1). Similarly it somewhat retroactively takes away from moments in Dark Souls 1, like your fight against Big O and Joe Schmoe, with Ornstein simply being an illusion and actually having gone to meet up with Gwyn's Firstborn.
I also felt there was too large of a focus on not only rolling but combat entirely, with a much larger emphasis on difficult bossfights with clearcut times where you're supposed to focus on dodging before getting a hit or two in and then repeating, which I feel doesn't play to the strengths of Demon's and Dark Souls 1 which I think very much lies in the atmosphere, exploration and grounded world design. That being said, 3 did have some great fantastical areas as well like the Cathedral and Profaned Capital, just not as many nor as stunning as Latria or Ash Lake, but maybe my opinion will soften with time.
>weeb game
>good
KEK
if what youre saying is untrue im gonna ask Zig Forums for your ip and i will find you and im gonna slap you
the fact that there is so much cut and changed content in dark souls 3 makes me kind of sad. wish we could see what it was like before they made all those big changes so close to release and why they made them
Based as fuck
Oh yes, you can seethe and suck on my hairy, big manchild balls anyday my friend.
Maybe you can try a bit more on your next reply, yes?
Teach me a lesson with your cold, hard shitposting skills, I'm waiting.
Fucking faggot generation of bitch-ass wimps, fuck you.
ds2 apologists trying to cope with the fact that their game will always be the black sheep of the series
It plays smoothly and it looks good but everything else sucks ass. Want a passive HP regen build? The best one you can make is on par with the most basic bitch one in DeS. Want a passive MP regen build? IIRC simple's on par with crescent but there's no ring to pair it with. Want to play through the game with 2kat? Then you'd better take your ass to NG+ because 2kat is locked behind 3 lords due to the story of an NPC that you can't even speak with and who left the wrong corpse behind which FROM couldn't be bothered to fix. Want a toxic weapon? Tough shit. And glossing over the shit that got gutted or straight up left out there were the constant balance changes that fucked up weapon progression, a lot of cool shit was nerfed to hell & back before DS3 even hit the US. Even all that aside DS3 was built entirely on references, they forgot to put an actual core to it. The catacombs and demon ruins are straight up Bloodborne assets which I wouldn't mind if the areas didn't suck. Anor Londo is just a few shit covered rooms. The game's so unfinished that the map that came with the CE has locations that aren't even in the game.
Just because a game triez to be different doesn’t make it good
Just because a game tries to be more of the same doesn’t mean it can’t fail at it
Brainlet
i liked it, but not as much as ds1. i think it was because the areas felt more like levels than real places of a world, so it ended up being much less immersive. im not sure why though.
So you got the latest Mario and still paying WoW subscription?
Cool, man. That shows your high IQ, well played.
That's right you retarded frogposter.
Dark Souls peaked in 2.
What really gets me about this one is that it'd actually make all the sense in the world to just put the DSA's bonfire at the other end of his arena, then it'd be right next to the elevator to the twin princes. Instead these 2 are right next to each other and if you want to take the elevator to the princes you have to run across the bridge. IDK why they didn't just have an intern fix that shit.
