Dagger with the sliding dodge is fun as hell if you've never done it. I also liked pyro/dark with the witchy outfits, or a lightning faith melee build.

DS1
I played it the most and I remember the most about it. I have a lot of problems with it now that we have newer games but the experience is still pretty solid.

DS2
I find myself feeling nostalgia for it unlike any other game in the series for some reason and found myself coming back to it more times than the others.

DS3
I want to say I enjoyed this one the most but I feel like I've only ran through the game once ever and never went back except to speedrun to certain items to get builds early

What's worse is I've had this equivalent IRL time and time again now.
Is anything not a simulation at this point?
Marketing is just a simulation.

It's not just AI slop. Human society machine slop is a problem too.

No, anon. When you're thinking about something what your brain would naturally filter out starts to get picked up.
I didn't pay much mind to Dark Souls threads, so I don't even remember any being posted, but now that I'm replaying it after a few months, suddenly I see how often DS threads are posted on /v/.
>>
>>749043141
its basically just two boss weapons from the same boss mashed together to make one
But since there is no boss refight mechanic because the game is inferior to DS2 you either cheat it in or NG+

DS1 was good, but the formula got tiresome and started feeling like a slog after From reused it for like the 20th time, and now every other "action" "RPG" that comes out is a shameless Souls copypaste down to the fucking animations.
It wasn't worth it, the series should've never existed because the industry can't fucking behave when something gets popular.

Half the reason Souls got so popular was because hack and slash games were dogshit before them and dying out as a result

Rookie mistake. Gotta go grab your souls without humanity, then Homeward/Bone outta there and cash them in before fighting the boss for real.

False, but even if you pretend that's true, now there are barely any actual hack and slash games amidst all the rollslop.

Bullshit, they have this worked out with big data and algorithms nowadays because they trigger the most bizarre behaviour in people nowadays.
You are a sum of chemicals in the brain.
Those can be produced without consumption.

>dopamine
>serotonin
>cortisol

Often I'll see a pattern of a similar strains of content on the news on TV at once.
A few days ago I saw like 6ish reports all relating to:
>cops get new powers
>cops abused power
>cops get new powers
>cops abused power
>cops get new powers
>cops abused power

This sort of thing. You used to see it with threads on boards here but that's how 4chan has always been.
What I didn't expect was to see that on the news, twitch, discord, school, bars, etc. Similar impulses of content to bash you over the head with. It's been like this for nearly 15 years for me 2bh, though even since I was a kid since 9/11 and the iraq/afghan wars.
Then they bashed you over the head with shit like pop punk and anti-authority crap, or pro-authority crap. Almost on a schedule.

Society is deterministic nowadays. Simple as. If you try to escape it, it will hunt you.
AI is the first time people realised this around me.
For me it's always like this.
And people HATE it when I point it out. They've banned me from places sometimes. Or cut me off.
They don't like their dream being trashed.

I'm like this because it got me abused.

All the DMC games except 2, the GoW games before they turned into cinematic slop, MGR, and the Ninja Gaiden games. There's probably 20 in there.

no joke but quelaag is always the hardest fight
the shitty lava hitboxes aside if you're doing it right the last bonfire was probably in Firelink Shrine so you don't have to walk all the way back up so you're down a couple estus from fall damage + poison.
you just have to not pay attention for a second and be stuck between her blast and a wall of lava
and your damage probably sucks unless you've played the game like a scrub and leveled up/upgraded a bunch

Having played Dark Souls 2 finally still think Dark Souls is still my favorite but 2 is a close second and 3 just didn't grab me. I really like the exploration of these games and DS1 feels interconnected.
Also I use strength builds, mostly hammers and heavy armor I'm not sure if that's a factor.

Based anon. Ds2 was so wild. I liked farming that covenant ring that lets your bare hands scale with HP. Id refuse to play until I farmed that ring then start the gane at sl150 and 1 shotting bosses with my fists.
Obviously I was wearing the old iron turtle armor.

STR builds are definitely he most fun to play. Dark Souls PvE combat is similar to footsies in fighting games, and STR builds have the highest reward for mastering the footsies system.

Do people seriously not get the "hollowed" metaphor?
You're just another hollow in the game too.
Even Miyazaki was complaining about the world of marketing, of "no gods". You just didn't get it.
Well some do seem to get it, but not enough. They get mad when I start comparing the real world to it.
