Redpill me on Dark Souls 3. Is it really the peak of the trilogy?
Why don't you play it and find out?
Yes
No
>>736795463For me it's 1=2>3>2: SotFS
If you really love swamps then sure, ds3 is great
>>736795463It’s a lot of remembering DS1. Doesn’t even attempt to do its own thing, unlike DS2. AThat said, it’s fun.
>>736795463Yes, but that is a very low bar. It's shit compared to ER, though that is a very high bar.
>>7367954632 is my favourite but 3 had some amazing fights and wrapped up the story in a way that makes sense. However you can also clearly tell 3 had massive cut content areas, The Profaned capital comes to mind, that place screams cut content.
>>736795675SotFS has enough okay changes for it to stay above 3 imoIn fact one of my biggest issues with it is that it changed so little, it wasn't worth paying for if you had 2 already back then
>>736795914I feel like the Profaned Flame was supposed to way more important than just another pyromancy.
>>736795463It's the tranniest of the trilogy, gameplay wise? turned obsolete after Elden ring
>>736795463Yeah, only half of DaS1 is good and DaS2 is dogshit. 3 is a good game start to finish and has the best multiplayer of any soulsborne game.
>>736795463is it weird that i've never finished the third despite haven't beaten the first two several times there is something about this game man can't seem to enjoy it as much as the first two
>>736795775>Enemies that can run in the water while you remain slow>small arena boss fights>small arena boss fights surrounded with poison>poison sticks to you even when you heal and keeps increasing the gauge>invisible enemies>unfair swarms of enemies ganking you>empty spaces baiting you for a gank squad to jump you>unfair fast enemies distracting you from the squad of turtle armor one shotting you>dark favelas with shooting poison darts with hollows waiting to push you over the ledge
>>736796583The beginning is extremely shit, it starts to pick up around the end unironically, the first dlc is also really bad but the 2nd dlc is really good
>>736796597man I hate fromslop
>>736795463It is the lowest point and has the most cut or preemptively butchered content, yes even more than DaS2.Once you pass the exit to undead settlement you have seen 50% of the game's content, and 20% of the remaining content is behind you in the archives.Most of the areas are stubs or swamps and there aren't even enough areas to make a world map that's not a straight line.And the things populating them? Basically copypasta (hope you like Hollow slave assassins) and content mill slop (hope you like two phase bossfights in a box arena).
>>736796883>lurks a Fromsoft threadRent free faggot
>>736796597I remember running across a poison swamp dodging 2 immortal angels shooting holy bolts at me.
It has the best level design out of all three Dark Souls games, so yes.
>>736795463More action focused, not as sovlful as DS1, world design (though levels themselves are good) is pretty weak.Pretty good all things considered.Don’t listen to /v/edditor trannies and insecure schizoids trying to gaslight you into thinking it’s actually le bad because a direct sequel has locations and elements from the original.
>>736796839Except the beginning is great, the second level in the game is Undead Settlement.
>>736795463it's just a good game. the parts that reuse stuff from DS1 is still is mostly new content like in anor londo you traverse an area you don't in DS1 for 80% of the level. makes me think the people that claim it's just DS1 again either haven't played it or are working off of their memories from 2016.also the bosses are much better than ER's on average.
>>736797487Nah the game only starts around the part where you enter the boreal valley anything before that uninspired 3dsmax tutorials
>>736797874Not at all. The levels are much better designed than any of the levels from the previous games.
>>736797969>castle>castle>undead burg >swamp>boring crypt>castle>ahh the boreal valley finally a new level>nope anor londo again>ahh profaned capital finally a new level>it's a corridor>the library from ds1Now that i think about it, the most inspired parts are the areas from ds1
>>736798159>complex structures with different pathways and interlocking routes that have plenty of secrets to discoverYes, and?
>Just finished playing DS3 an hour ago>suddenly a DS3 threadAm I living in a matrix? Also, the game is mid just like any other Dark Souls game. Horrible RPGs but okay action-adventure game. I like Darksiders 2 more.Also, lore question. Is the Untended Grave really in the past or the future? Did the Age of Dark already happened? I thought AoD didn't happened yet in any of the Souls game.
>>736797535Ds3 reuses a lot of stuff from demon souls, the gimmick giant boss fight is a copy paste from des' Storm king, the mana bar, the blind firekeeper, irythl is a copy paste of the prison of hope, the nexus hub
>>736798578Piss off retard
>>736795463It's just>Remember dark souls?200 times while trying to be bloodborne except with no real movement improvements for the player. Basically the start of the problem ER had.1 is the peak. 2 at least tried. 3 is slop.
>>736798806Giving opinions and asking question is haram now? This is not a From Software board you know.
>>736798998>>it's just Remember dark souls?It's also remember DeS >>736798612If you ever play DeS, you will notice a lot of mobs are built around DeS mobs, for instance the path towards the twin princes is a copy of DeS' first area in the boletaria spawn
>>736795463It lacks the dream like magic the others have, idk how to explain it, it's technically sound but it lacks an identity, it's kinda like a whore, the expensive escort kind.
>>7367954631 and 2 mog 3 so hard it's not even funny
>>736798998DS3 is 80% DeS, stupid secondary
>>736795914What makes 2 your favorite?
>>736795463its ok. I can see why some say its the peak. There are some things about it I dont like. Dark souls 3 kinda gave me souls fatigue and then Elden Ring cured it.
>>736795463It's literally the worst game From has made in like 20 years. If youre a faggot bitch who didnt like 1 or 2 and wanted Dark Souls to be a shitty linear action game with no build variety or thought process, youll love it though
>>736795463Nah it's not the peak.The first half of Dark Souls is the peak of the series still. That said Dark Souls 3 is fine. Not very unique but overall an improvement from Dark Souls 2, but not by much.
>>736802152>It's literally the worst game From has made in like 20 years>taps sign
>>736795463Has the best bosses, some of the levels are great, combat feels fast and good.DS2 apologists will of course try to say it's shit because they like the worst game in the series, but you don't have to listen to these retards.
>>736795463Gael is the best boss fight Fromsoft ever made, but DS3 is the weakest of the trilogy.
>>736804385The armored core 6 ayre boss is better, i can think of so many bosses that are better, smough and ornstein, the ivory king, the soul of cinder, unless you mean lore wise then yeah maybe you are right
>>736795463If you played DS1 and thought>Man, I wish there was morethen DS3 is the perfect game. The zones also get progressively better instead of falling off a cliff in the second half.
>>736797131I swear, people who shit on DS3's levels are delusional to me. Did we play the same game? Levels like Cathedral of the Deep are the clear peak of the series.
>>736795463>Is it really the peak of the trilogy?Probably yeah
>>736798612The whole game is just Demon's Souls but linear. It shares so much DNA with it. I actually think it would've turned out better if we could pick what levels we want to go to from the hub world like Demon's Souls, there was no need for the linearity
>>736795463did they ever unfuck the online?
Why does everyone on this hub of white supremacy talk like some fucking ESL pajeet or Jorge? Do you niggas not read books?DS3 is a good action adventure game and a dogshit Dark Souls, which is why the diversions of Sekiro and Elden ring were necessary becore Elden Ring's return to form. All the weapons behave the same, and the fashion souls is lacking. Aesthetics are on but player direction puts me to sleep. Game plays itself, and all the bosses are so simple I cannot believe I ever struggled, but then again, Nightreign is now a crash course in playing these games at the highest possible level, so the community skill floor os raised like hell.
>>736807245>Did we play the same game?They didn't play the game at all. Evidence? People pretending 2 is better than 3.
>>736807726retard
DS3 fags are secondaries
