The undisputable souls game rankings
By retards with no taste of course
Sekiro is not a souls game.
>>731022009
>THAT number's fans shitting up the image like usual and pretending like they aren't the most despised of the group
Demon Souls, Dark Souls, Bloodborne = goodthe rest = garbage
>>731022009>trash>trash>good>great>the bestHow did they do it?
>>731022554I sure love entire zones being reused
The Sonic Cycle is real, infests every series, and has convinced people that Dark Souls 2 was just as good as the others in the series.
>>731022009Broski I'm replaying the series right now and I'm at Dark Souls 2 and this shit is still mostly mid as hell. Almost called it dogshit there but I do still enjoy making a build in this. It's just that the level design and combat is fucking tedious.
>>731022009>shit souls 2>good
>2 not low-tier>sekirogr8 b8 m8 typical ds2 shill thread on /v/ etc
>>731022939DS2 is aging like wine because the more games From makes the more it reveals how streamlined and slop-esque their game design has become. Yes DS2 was criticized at the time but in a post-Nightreign world it's clear that DS2 was the last time they put effort into making an old school RPG first and rollslop second.
>>731022914But it's kino. I died the first time through Anor Londo cuz I kept clapping.
>>731023328>game with strongest rolls>not rollslop
>>731022009this isn't even a ranking
>>731022009Wow the same game 5 times
>>731023438Roll seller I require your strongest rolls
How to enjoy Dark Souls 2?
>>731022009I prefer repeat playthroughs of 3 than 2
>>731022009but 3 is the only good one
>>731024337I primarily got through it by the high that was finishing DS1 and really soaked DS1 in. For DS2 I went hybrid melee and sorc' as it often seems like the game really wants you to have ranged at least sometimes. I did enjoy often swapping between weapons, shields, binocs, and the many spells on the fly, and the very slow and easy nature of the game helps this, too (barring ambushes but they're not hard, tedious and cheap at best). It's a mediocre game that's lukewarm throughout, I drop it some way within the DLCs (typically finish ivory crown, do a bit of the other two). I can't see focusing entirely being one thing as being fun in DS2, the game showers you with so many weapons, armours, and more importantly, levels, that you can easily do a big mix.
people only disliked 2 because of soul memory, every other aspect of it was perfect
too weak of bait
>>731024337only play it drunk/high so you don't remember the shitty parts later
>>731024615>>731024917Is powerstancing just shit and not worth doing at all? Because it seems like that to me and I'm trying to powerstance axes.
>>731024337play slow and enjoy exploring, literally get losta blind ds2 playthrough is something you'll only experience once in your lifetime
>>731024337Caster build.The worst part of DS2 aside from it being ugly as shit is how janky the melee combat feels.There are a ton of mechanically unique spells that you don't find in later games too, and with the Black Witch's staff you can cast magic of every type without constant swapping between catalysts.
Its funny because DS3fags are the biggest secondaries in the series but will pretend like they are the oldfags
>>731024337dont use lifegems
>>731024337Get to the DLC areas as fast as you can
>>731022009>I CLAPPED WHEN I SAW ANOR LONDO AGAIN
>>731024337Build a time machine, tell your past self to play it as his first FromSoft game, travel forward in time, orchestrate an "accident" where you give yourself a traumatic brain injury a few months later
>>731023328You say this except Nightreign is the first souls game since 2 that actually feels like an RPG and not an action game with levels
>>731023438>have to dump 30 levels into ADP to even get close to DS3's worst roll You are factually wrong.
>>731023438>game with strongest rolls>35 stamina per rollmeanwhile... in Dark Souls 3>15 stamina per rollcan't believe you have the balls to call DS2 rolls OP.
>>731025149So true sisI clapped the heck out when I saw Ornstein again
>>731022009Combine this with this >>731022554and it'll be perfect.>>731025579It's good when Dark Souls 2 does it because Dark Souls 2 is an actually good videogame. Hope this helps.
>>731024337Put your grasses on
>>731022009DS2 sucks. I'd say deal with it but you obviously won't, you dumb contrarian fuck.
>>731025663Not even the most hardcore DS2 dicksuckers will tell you that The Old Dragonslayer is good, you can stop pretending
>>731025176>map routing (non-existent since 2)>have to actually play to your character's strengths >playstyles are actually unique and not roll + r1 >co-op is like older souls, no gay voice chat, its meant to be cryptic, fleeting encounters>requires item and enemy knowledge of over 10+ years>brings back mechanics like tail-cutting >brings back unique non-combat elements like Libra's deals>black phantoms >builds can be versatile, ironeye can be played as melee, duchess can be played as a caster, executor can be played as a tank, etcNightreign is the best souls game since DS2. Only secondaries and people who are genuinely bad at the series disagree. It tests RPG and dexterity better than anything in the series so far>b-b-b-b-b-b-but Fornite!
>>731024337Step 1: install DS2Step 2: play
>>731025579I hate DS2, but I like this boss in a vacuum. His moveset is good. Of course, the fact that he's literally just Ornstein is insanely stupid and pandering, and Heide is a terrible level.
>>731026095It's literally just phase 2 Ornstein's moveset with sloppy dark vfx instead of lightning
>>731024337>>731026020Step 3: uninstall that shit game and never play it again
>>731025424>DS2troon can't mathMany such cases
>>731026262And the average DS2 enemy / boss is so shit that he feels like a breath of fresh air
>>731024337Actual proper answer: aggressively gaslight yourself into believing it's not a souls game but a third person view King's Field, then proceed to gaslight yourself into enjoying being ambushed by mobs (nuanced and kinolvdo game design)you're welcome
>>731023328>DS2 is aging like winelike really cheap wine that isn't good to begin with>an old school RPG first and rollslop secondHow is DaS2 not rollslop?
>>731025543>muh staminameanwhile ds2 is the slowest and easiest of them all>>731025424>dump>meanwhile ds2 gives you more levels by far and rapidly more than the other titlesDS2fags yet again reinforcing they're some of the most insane of all video game communities.
>>731026524>How is DaS2 not rollslop?If you hold right on the analog stick the enemies will miss 90% of their attacks with no thought required
>>731024337overlevel adp and then play it normally. otherwise the game just feels janky and stupid
>>731026361Wait...did you think I literally meant 30 levels? Hoooly cringe. I didn't know you were an actual ESL baboon who can't understand figures of speech. And this isn't even starting on the fact that I gave you a graph that shows DS2 rolls are worse than the other games in 95% of situations. Please consult a doctor for your medical and visual disability.
>>731024337Having autism is a hard requirement.
>>731026524>How is DaS2 not rollslop?because it came out before Bloodborne, which was the moment the series went from rollkino to rollslop.
>>731024337I just installed DS2>never beat itanon, its boring and ugly to look at, just play ER or DS1&3.
>>731026648This. It even works on some of the "hardest" enemies in the game.
>>731022009Bloodborne > Dark 1 (first half) > Dark 3 > Dark 2 > Dark 1 (second half)Haven't played SekiroDemons > all
>>731024337Play DaS3 and realize that it could've gone so much worse
>>731026648So it's even worse than rollslop
>>731022009Is sekiro good? It filtered me because i refused to use many combos and it looks like you must play it with combos
>>731026803Actually it's kino
>>731022009>in Dark Souls 3, the Dark Souls 2 armor is found in a literal pool of shitWhat did he, meaning Miyazaki, the creator of such acclaimed video game achievements as Bloodborne and Elden Ring mean by this?
>>731026665>wow ok I know it's much less than that but I didn't mean literally 30DS2troons everyone
>>731026934He's just jealous that the DS2 armor looks so good
>>731026836"turn your brain off" is indeed very kino
Oh great, it's another episode of DS2 contrarians pretending their mediocre slop is the best entry
>>731027083Check out any "pro"-DS2 or DS2 critique videos on youtube and the comment sections are wild. DS2fags truly are insane, I kinda respect it.
>>731026351Don't be weird. Maybe you should play it, for the first time.
>>731022009Sekiro isn't a souls game or asoulslike at all
>>731022554Where is the dark souls 2 content in 3?They didn't even have drangleic in the 3 scene with lordran and lothric
>>731028776>Where is the dark souls 2 content in 3?Ringed city is earthen peak
>>731022009I didn't actually think other people had the same opinion as me. Thank you bro. I love you
>>731026980NTA you're a stupid nigger, please stay silent in the future. just stop talking. not that hard
>>731028953>freedom of speech is a right for ALL AMERI-ACK
>>731022009>>731022554>>731023294Good thing at least the brapper is fine.
>>731022009I played all 5 games in a rowSekiro > DS3 > Bloodborne > DS1 > DS2
>>731028857Entire city? I don't think so, they're incredibly different (lore and visually). There are parts of earthen peak in that DLC, but that's because everything is being mushed together so you see parts of all sorts in there. Like DS1 firelink shrine at the bottom, where you fight demon prince.
>>731022009Fuck sekiro
>>731028970freedom of shitting lmao
>>731028776>Alva>Creighton>Lucatiel >Gilligan>fuckton of armor>Thrones of Want + Giant in FirelinkI'm sure there's more but that's just what I recall from the last time I played it, there's not wholesale areas referenced like DaS1 though.
>>731023294This is the accurate image.
>>731028953Why are DS2sissies so emotional?
>>731029379noooo not the image from three years ago..
>>731024337Enjoy pre-7th gen RPGs and don't be a boss-obsessive faggot like every modern Fromsoft fan.
>>731022009Fu, I'm going to get the rings! Y'all made fun enough of me, I'm getting the two darksouls 2 rings!
>>731024989Most people who try out powerstancing only try spamming L1 and think it sucks because it's not as fast as it is in Elden Ring. DS2 isn't Elden Ring and it doesn't strictly have R1 -> R1 or L1 -> L1 attack chains. DS2 allows for "cross-input" attack chains, like R1 -> L1 in powerstance where the L1 comes out faster than if it was the first input. These cross-input attack chains exist for 1handing, 2handing, dual wielding out of powerstance and dual wielding in powerstance.
>>731022009makes me wonder if ds2 fans actually played ds2
>>731032781thinking about replaying it this year
>>731029583But DS2 has significantly more bosses than the other Souls games.
>>731033572how many of those bosses even try to hurt you?
>>731024337The same way you enjoy the rest of dark souls.Aka you dont because the entire series is overrated dogshit that plays like shit.
>>731033738Which encounter filtered you, boo?
