>>733708085You get used to the looks, that's the least of their problems. They're really repetitive and boring to play. I'd say they were alright at the time but that's just my bias, in truth I feel like C&C was styling all over them back then. 2 does have incredible music thought.>>733708112For me it was for all the wrong reasons. Replaying the campaign recently it felt like a slog, multiplayer is where it's truly at and those times are long gone.
>>733708085They are extremely dated, in graphics, in gameplay, in story.When they came out they were fine but they have aged poorly unlike warcraft 3, an evergreen masterpiece that blows out almost any big game from the 2020s
>>733707669Heroes of Might and Magic 3.Not that the previous ones were bad, but every next game was just a direct improvement on the previous one, expanding on the mechanics and adding more content, all the while preserving the core gameplay without any drastic changes. It's honestly incredible, a very rare case.

First game with manual targeting. First game with ambidextrous weapon equipment. First game with a healing animation that lets you move. Powerstancing. Vitality. Majula. Flask shards. Sublime bone dust. Bonfire ascetics. The list goes on.What did DS3 add to the formula? Two flask types, that's it.

Best of the series by far.Ds1 after O&S is some of the worst areas and bosses in gaming history, I'd genuinely love to suckerpunch every faggot that glazes Nito. Ds2 is just a joke from beginning to end, not even worthy of discussion. Elden Ring is mechanically great but the open world stuff is soulless and hinders my interest in playing any further than Godrick.Ds3 on the other hand has a couple stinker bosses but 90% of them are fucking spectacular. I accept criticisms of the areas being too linear but I personally found them interesting enough and found myself getting lost in exploration a few times. It's mechanically fantastic and also the right amount of length.

DMC1 was THE MOST INNOVATIVE ACTION GAME THE FATHER OF ALL THE STARTER OF THE GENRE and there was nothing like it when it came out. Let me say that again but in all caps THERE WAS NOTHING NOT A SINGLE FUCKING ACTION GAME ON PLANET EARTH LIKE DMC1 AT THE TIME. That is how wide the gap between it and other games was. And the funniest shit is that the only game 1up DMC1 was its younger brother DMC3. I mean Shinobi did exist and it was definitely next level for its time too and you could even say these two were the birth of the Character Action Games genre. It is extremely disrespectful to say that DMC is OP's image when that it incorrect. DMC1 was on another planet at the time. It cant be compared to anything pre-DMC3 except the one game I already listed.

>>733713385>good gameplayI'd say it has passable shooting instead because it also has constant cutscenes, QTEs, whack-a-mole cover mechanics and other shit that really messes up the gameplay in general.

>>7337077123rd game is dark souls 2 actually
>>733719205I started with the first DaS and played all of them in order except for BB which was my last one.This idea that DaS III is the worst is unironically a /v/ cultural meme not based on reality, but based on cultural inferences generated through a combination of sony shitposts (No game can be better than Bloodborne, never ever!) and Matthew Mattosis worship (He critiqued Dark Souls III as mid).Every criticism of it is the same weird rose-tinted comparison to DaS's quality and then something bad about it that BB has, but BB is ok because half of /v/ never played it so you can pretend it doesn't and or Dark Souls III somehow fucked it up (it didn't)Level design for example. DaS III is the most linear but BARELY any more than BB. People pretend BB isn't, why? Because most areas in BB are built around one lantern, so they have many shortcuts back to that lantern. The branching paths between areas are less, but the shortcuts are plentiful within the level itself to the bonfire.DaS III has a few areas like this (I. E Irithyl Dungeon) but not ALL of them.BB gets a pass though because NEVER EVER though. Even then, while Lordran was a cool, people jerk off the concept of the branching paths way too much like they didn't just do one or two alternate routes per game to grab the weapons. Sure the design allowed you to NG and rush to whatever you want, but at the same time all Souls games still had the issue of cool weapons being locked away near the end and self imposed "Can't do NG+" autism.It's even worse in retrospect when people shit on Elden Ring for letting you go almost anywhere anyway but because it's open world and not Labyrinthine it's shit.In my opinion, the real reason people love DaS levels has less to do with the design and more to do with being forced to a bonfire, with no teleportation until end game. This made the world feel bigger and more isolating and would do so with any other souls game including Dark Souls III.
>>733722912Not shitposting. Answering OP.
>>733717530Too many people are conflating best to mean the prequels are shit. The image in OP is specifically demanding a series where the first two games are dogshit, but the third is phenomenal. DMC1 would still be a fucking flaming horse, even if it's worse than DM3.

>>733708085They might be from a modern perspective. I'm not sure (haven't tried them in forever). But I'm old enough to have experienced them on their own terms and they were pretty definitive hits in their genre that improved with ever new release.If anything I kind of feel WC3 was a big side-grade which in itself broke the mold of constantly getting better. But if you really like WoW and the lore world WC3 essentially made I guess it could pretty fairly fit OP image, from a subjective standpoint.

>>733707669Xenosaga Episode 3
>dude it's too linear>ds2 had like 13 first bossesReally? Barring some sort of insane warp glitch, most of the time it was lost giant, or dragondildo rider. Maybe Pursuer if you count his field form as a boss. 99% of the time, it's giant or dildorider. "but we have the potential to" bro, practically speaking, it's still heide or forest. Like you have potential to get laid, but practically speaking, you're still not getting fucked. It doesn't really matter about the potential but rather the practical results.You COULD grind up enough vitality to do the ladder skips and run straight through the gutter, fight the rotten first, but that's a piss way to play the game. Besides that, you're basically using speedrunner glitches, or skipping around. Which is fun, but realistically few people on here legit speedrun dark souls 2. If we're talking about that kind of glitching, you can still mess around with skips and all sorts of shit in ds3.For the most part, you just branch, ride it out as much as possible, go back to majula, go to the other fork, ride the branch all the way. Ultimately, you still have to go to certain chokepoints which pretty much nullifies the whole non-linearity of it all.
Silent Hill
>>733744438You nailed it, Anon. People who praise DS2's "non-linear" approach are just grasping at straws. At the end of the day, it's narrow paths to the same inevitable bosses. It's like having multiple dirt roads leading to the same destination-they're all cool for a change of scenery, but you’re still heading to the same place. DS3 at least has more consistency and cohesion. It might be linear, but it embraces it in a way that works seamlessly. The bottom line, both games have their flaws, but acting like DS2 is the epitome of open-ended gameplay is pure cope.

>>733744734>Usually it's 2 > 1 > 3It's usually down to the series creator. If the creator sticks around, usually the 2nd is the best game because they get to fix everything they felt they got wrong in the 1st, now with more budget and a clearer vision. But the 3rd usually falters because they've already done everything they want to do so either they just outright leave for another project leaving it to the B team, or they just phone it in with their B-side notes.When the 3rd game is the best, I find it's usually because the 2nd was handled by someone else. Series creator doesn't want to do a sequel so someone else gets the job and they suck at it. So they come back to right the wrongs in the 3rd one. But then it's the same problem for the next instalment. They don't have a 3rd game in them so the series falters.

>>733755693The alternative paths are detriment if anything, the quality is markedly lower, and it's just shitty sections with bullet sponge enemies where you just stand in one spot and unload into them. They hadn't planned on making another game, so they just basically dumped every asset they had into the game with no care how the game actually played or flowed. Metal Slug 3 is by far the most bloated and has a ton of really shitty sections. Also the game is not 2 hours long, nor would that even be a good thing for an arcade game.I've no-missed cleared Metal Slug 1-6, and Metal Slug 3 is worse than 1, 2, and 4. Now kys poser.

>>733760336To add, Metal Slug 3 has 2.5 good stages (stage 2's boss + stages 3 and 4) and would actually be a good game if the whole game was that quality. Unfortunately stage 1, 2, and most of 5 are complete junk and that's about 60-70% of the game's runtime (stage 5 alone is about 2/3rd of the game)
>>733757107The first half isn't all that and a bag of chips either. Quelaag and O&S are the only real highlights, and even then they don't hold a candle to Ds3 bosses.I don't hate Dark Souls 1 at all. It's a good, comfy atmospheric game, but I do hate how it's universally awarded the "masterpiece" title while 3 isn't, despite it improving on 1 in virtually every way barring the world design.

>>733717530It was innovative and unique for its time but was still a shitty game that aged horribly, similar to GTA3. There is really no reason to play DMC1 nowadays aside from novelty or crippling autism, the game is genuinely an unfun piece of shit.>key upgrades unlocked behind jarpig grinding crap and collectible hunting bullshit>camera is about as awful as they come in a 3D action game, especially since movement is relative to camera (unlike RE for example)>difficulty levels are completely fucked where on the highest difficulty, regular enemies are actually much weaker. They have the same health, and only deal 60% more damage while your HP (with all blue orbs) is 3x higher. Then you factor in all the additional moves and increased DT you've unlocked, and they just became total trashmob pushovers, while bosses have a fuckhuge damage and health increase. Basically just turns the game into a glorified bossrush.>levels are big labyrinthine areas with time-wasting fetch quest nonsense where you aimlessly wander around looking for some random arbitrary gizmo trash and then run across the map to stick it in the random designated gizmo slot to progress>despite literally having an entire system to lock onto enemies, even when it's NOT ACTIVE, Dante STILL magnetizes to the nearest enemy whenever he attacks even if they are 30+ feet away. It's also extremely finicky to lock onto the proper enemy you want. It's impossible to emphasize just how much these factors make combat feel like complete shit and fundamentally cripple the game>absolutely AWFUL underwater sections>constant slow, clunky menu weapon changes>recycles each boss multiple times, overall low enemy variety in general (but again, they become irrelevant on anything beyond a new fresh run)>items completely trivialize all challenge in the game, and you can even still earn S-ranks with these items

>>733762493Is your IQ in the 80s and your skin brown by chance? If a game is a novel and first of its kind, that is relevant for the time it releases. If it has since been massively improved upon and essentially obsoleted by several dozens of action games that have done a similar concept with far, far better execution, it offers little incentive to play it today. It really shouldn't be a difficult concept to grasp.

>>733762802We are living in current year where every game from the inception of gaming is playable to us; a game being the first of its kind has long since been irrelevant for someone playing the game today. Some games the first of their kind have still aged well due to really strong fundamental design, but DMC1 is really rough around the edges and has many glaring flaws (as stated above) that detract from its enjoyment significantly, in a way which you cannot overlook due to novelty or ground-breaking ideas as these concepts have since become reiterated, expanded upon, and improved extensively with far better execution since its release.

>>733763236They are two very different games with tons of differences you poser retard. X has a ton of downgrades in stage design and a ton of questionable changes, and the performance improvements are irrelevant when you can just emulate to remove all slowdown, which is by far the best way to play, especially considering X still has significant amounts of slowdown.

>>733763538Nigger I don't give a fuck about good boy brownie points for a game that innovated something 25 years ago that then got pounded into the dirt by far better games that were just superior across the board in the years after its release. It was cool for a couple years and then got obsoleted, hence it aged poorly. It's a piece of trash past its useful lifecycle.

>>733707669ME trilogy
>>733763891>permanently driving the franchise into rollslop by eliminating the broader sandbox of RPG driven solutions to problems that players could findThis is the stupidest claim you could make towards DS2 because it is objectively the most weird, RPG driven, and sandbox-y game in the entire series. Multiple bosses throughout the game have special ways to deal with or make easier that you have to resolve through exploration or experimentation (Dragonriders platform, Covetous Demon jars, Mytha poison, Ivory King, summoning Tark via Ring of Whispers, etc.), several areas have multiple entrances or ways to progress based on item management via branches and lockstones, and your stats matter more than in any other Souls game.You can go ahead and think DS2 is a bad game, you can even think it's a bad game for those reasons, but this is just beyond stupid when the game objectively has more RPG elements than anything before or after in the franchise.
>>733707669Thanks for the twitter engagement money :)
>>733762802Absolute fucking cope lmao. It's the same thing in every aspect of life or art form.
>>733764539>DS2 because it is objectively the most weird, RPG driven, and sandbox-y game in the entire series.Completely and blatantly false. I'm not talking about a couple of secrets that cheese a boss, I'm talking about the player's ability to actually explore and find solutions and tools. DS2 has you get stronger arbitrarily but not in any sort of interesting ways. You don't find a pyromancer who unlocks a whole different form of magic for you. You don't go explore down instead of up and wind up finding a shield that buffs you even on your back. You don't find a way to deal with that dragon blocking a bridge and get access to a coop covenant. DS2 PLAYS in an incredibly bland and linear fashion especially on any first time playthrough. It's a game only appreciated by autists who value their twelfth playthrough more than their first.
>>733764796>I'm not talking about quantifiable RPG elements, I'm talking about things both DS1 and DS2 had but in a slightly different ways so it doesn't count!NTA but we've been over this a decade ago nigga, you're not fooling anyone.>You don't find a pyromancer who unlocks a whole different form of magic for you. You literally do find one and pyromancy is actually a new school of magic for you because no starting class uses it in DS2, unlike in DS1 where you can already be a pyromancer as your starting class. You also have to find your own pyromancy flame in DS2 (actually there's two of them to find) unlike DS1 when it is simply given to you for free, no exploration needed whatsoever.>You don't go explore down instead of up and wind up finding a shield that buffs you even on your backDS2's stamina shield was found by you actually exploring the optional waist-high water part of a level that seemingly has nothing there. In DS1 the game has a narrow pathway to it, you can't miss it even if you try, no active choice to explore is needed to get to it aside from following a predetermined path game presents to you.>You don't find a way to deal with that dragon blocking a bridge and get access to a coop covenantFunny because you deal with Heide's drake the same two ways you deal with Hellkite, shooting at it or running through. Only Heide's drake actually retaliates when you shoot it from afar and running through is never safe (and you have to fight it), unlike with Hellkite which is just a matter of waiting until he lands near you. You had the same shit in DeS, why pretend it's anything worth mentioning when it's a staple of the series?If you gonna dismiss things that are unironically the most RPG-like ideas in Souls games at least try to come up with counter examples that are unique to other games of the series and not just arbitrarily chosen simply because they don't appear as 1:1 exact copies in the second game.

>>733740601No you don't, come on. 2 has nice looking town screens and a nice strategy map, but so does 3, and even if you prefer the former's, it's hardly enough of a reason to prefer the game in general, when 3 is just objectively better in every other way. More factions, more units, way more spells and artifacts, hero specializations, unique unit abilities, more map objects, significantly more scenarios (and campaigns, too), a random map generator and the unsung hero of homm3 - the wait button.I simply do not trust anyone who says 2 is better than 3 to be doing so out of anything but pure contrarianism.t. been playing the series for like 27 years

Witcher 3 came to mind. 100% sure.Witcher 1 : Niche game, niche success.Witcher 2 : Dumbed down AA, good old games.com highlight a bit janky.Witcher 3 : Masterpiece universal acclaim, high production values.
>>733707669Is this is implying the first two games are shit, or just technically lacking? Because if it's the former, 90% of the posts here are wrong.
>>733769489Perhaps it's that when compared to the third installment, the first two fail to compare.We know of games in franchises that go up or down in quality compared to previous installments, so that's easy to separate, but what of games that were better experiences when we initially played them than when we played the subsequent installments? Even if the newer games are more graphically impressive or tighter in game play, these games don't exist in a franchise vacuum, they exist in an vast ecosystem with plenty of other games and franchises around it during its time, which is why being a more impressive technical or game play showcase doesn't make it a better game than previous installments, it just wasn't as impactful in its time as those games were for theirs.
