Would the Demon's Souls remake be a good place to jump into the series? I always thought the games atmospheres looked mad cool, but never actually tried any.

No, if you're only on a sony console goto Bloodborne or DS1. DeS is the weakest entry in the series and that includes DS2.
What about Demon's Souls makes it the weakest in the series?
the good atmosphere is gone with the remake so no
>calling the best game in the series the worst
wow lad you so original. literal 0/10 bait
Bloodborne is weakest entry in the series. And I played DeS too.
Extremely short and light on content. You're able to be done with the game in less than 8 hours on a fresh run without too much trial and error.
the dlc content on ds3 kicks ass tho
Please don't lie. It's not a bad game but it's objectively the worst entry. It was the ground work for far better games.
loved Ds3, tried Nioh next (as a sort of preamble to buying Sekiro) and finished but it just felt really cheap and burned me on the jap setting. Will I enjoy Ds1?
You'll enjoy your time with DS1 if you enjoyed DS3. You'll see quite a few similar zones since DS3 is what happened to the world after DS1.
If you're not sure, spend a third of the money and buy DS1. If you like that, then you'll like the others
Yes. But that doesn't save it from being a bad game. Bloodborne's quality drops after first area, DaS2 is inoperatable and Sekiro is just meh.
Why come no other game in the series are as experimental as DeS then? I am not talking about just formula. I am talking about bosses/world tendency and non lineer progression system which was absent in later games.
DaS is about exploration more than combat. If idea of exploring dungeons and settlements in a dangerous world sounds good to you then go ahead. It's my fave in the series.
Nobody is lying. It's unironically the best one. This and Original DS are the only ones with soul actually. It's mysterious and creepy with a tons of interesting details and secrets. It's a true kings field successor. These games were never about the fighting, armor sets or difficulties. It's about the adventure and the world and DeS along with DS offers the best one.
Your shill is showing.
Your NPCism is showing too.
Stupid cunt.
yes, that's actually what I enjoyed most of DS3, even if late game did feel a bit on the boss rush side of things. What about DS2?
Because unlike you, I played the fucking game.
Yikes user. DeS is unironically garbage when stacked against the other games.
DaS2 is both of them at the same time yet not good at both of them at all. It's combat is a little bit faster than DaS1 but slower than DaS3. It's world design isn't as lineer as DaS3 but isn't as open as DaS1. Try it later after DaS1 imo.
As did I. And there's nothing there waiting for people. Keep pushing people to play a short as fuck game that's easily broken and has the most boring gimmick boss fights.
>What about DS2?
DaS2 is boss rush city, the areas are basically just flavor dressing for the bosses and there's nothing to really explore because a lot of the areas are quite linear outside of some exceptions like Earthen Peak and I guess Lost Bastille. There are side areas in maps but they're typically inconsequential, or just circle back to the main area though there are a lot of secrets and easter eggs so it's up to you what to make of that. There's so many bosses in that game, it's like every five steps you're going into another fight. It does do a good job with giving you freedom of choice where you want to go at the start though so there is that.
DaS3 is the most linear of the bunch and has less wiggle room but it has the most aggressive enemies and bosses. Not a single Souls game matches up to how aggressive everything is there outside of maybe Bloodborne and even that's a stretch outside of Orphan, Ludwig, and Maria.

Based. DaS3's one of qualities people ignore is it's enemy quality. It has objectively best enemy designs in the series and not just with bosses but basic mobs. You are one of the few tripfags with an actual brain Moose.
>Why come no other game in the series are as experimental as DeS then?
Because DeS had laid the ground work, that's what being a foundational work means. It was a prototype that DaS refined the hell out of.
Yes. I played bloodborne for 10 minutes and quit because it was gay. But bluepoint is on point with their games so I will give this a try
>Would the only game in the series not made by the people who make the games in the series be a good place to jump in?
No.
>le too short meme
>le broken bosses
Every souls game can be broken with ease.
Game is of right length and has the best boss designs even if gimicky. It also has the best new game plus scaling and difficulty done right in the entire series. Of course its easy now when the entire genre was dissented and countless of other rip offs, but back in the day it took way more than 8 hours for people to get through it. These kings field games were not about its boss fights or even it's story. It was about the adventure. It still excels in many places over other souls games. Is it a perfect game? not it isnt? It's far more interesting and enjoyable then shit like DS3 precisely because it's not overly long and it has a world and plot that makes sense in their own settings.
It's the perfect start point IMO
Horrible pacing. The second half of the game is a breeze, but some of the levels in the first half are the definition of a slog.
Gameplay is intact.
