Will there ever be another game that captures what Dark souls 2 captured
>>
Captured what? Being a complete mess that got shat out only because there had to be a sequel made RIGHT NOW to cash in on the hype?
>>

I dont understand how could anyone fall for the DS2 scam. First teaser trailer was already off. Then they showed the game and it was obvious it had nothing to do with the trailer, but it still was off in its own way. Then they released the game and it was heavily downgraded from that.

Then everyone knew miyazaki wasnt even involved in it so i honestly dont know why should have anyone bothered.

Miyazaki recently said without Dark souls 2, ER wouldn't exist

I wish he elaborated on that because it sounds like he's mostly being polite.

Unlikely. It's a heady mixture of jank and sovl, nearly impossible to reproduce. Only a favstian man can appreciate such a game.

It captured my hopes and dreams for good sequels and smashed them.
Never buy a game at release.

I regret some of the ideas introduced in it weren't adopted in the latter series for instance the pursuer popping up randomly when you open a chest, the limited time time travel in desecrated areas giving you a chance to see what happened in the past

Not many games are hastly assembled together with little to no care from a failed pitch, they usually get canceled.

no other game captured the feeling of fast fluid responsive combat that makes you feel like an adventurer than dark souls 2

I mean just look at how much complex this looks compared to ds3

It's a grab attack and the blade caught him

>>736118979
dark souls 2 is a spiritual successor to kings field 4, just with a souls combat system. If you like the world of ds2 check it out.

>blade literally goes through his entire body

this webm is about as old as the game.

dark souls 2 does have way more grab attacks and they look janky in every souls game when they rollcatch you.

Some of the things i like about about ds2 is the quests don't always lead to the character's death except for lucatiel and pate/creigton, in every other souls, EVERY character has a depressing ending so much so it dilutes the impact of it, ds2 is the only one where the crestfallen warrior doesn't kill himself

>>736126491
I really like Pate/Creighton's questline

It was absolute kino to watch Majula slowing filling with people who you've befriended and becoming your own little home town

Every souls player eventually realizes DaS2 was the best one.

Lords of the Fallen 2

The fact that is was so rushed, and unfinished is what gives it a dreamlike feel through a lot of the game. Things Betwixt and The Forest of Fallen Giants and Lost Bastille/Sinners Rise and Shrine of Amana really illustrate this. I don't think you can recreate that even if you wanted to.
