Dark Souls was supposed to be about highly curated encounters in tight dungeon corridors, not riding around an empty plain full of nothing on a horse
True but I found the gayest aspect to be the retarded jumping and animation that came with it.
elden ring has the best open world of any game when you're baked
Elden mid...worst From game ever...
>from puts out a game with few changes>UGGHH IT'S THE SAME GAME ALL OVER AGAIN>from tries something different>UGGHH THEY CHANGED TOO MUCH IT'S NOT THE SAME ANYMORE
>>738021690When we say we want something different we mean Sekiro, not Elden Ring.
>>738021504Lucky for you, that's still 80% of ER's content so you should be good! And also, even the open world enemy placement is still curated, there is always a little bit of worldbuilding context to every enemy encounter, such as fights between enemy factions! Finally, it may interest you to know that Shazam lost!
>>738021504Shazam lost
>>738021504>highly curated encountersah yes, the highly curated encounters like four knights in a hallway, spam of skeleton dinosaurs on an empty sea of lava and spam of an early boss in more nothing hallways
>>738021778I for one mean armored core but get rid of the fucking stagger bar
>>738021504Yeah that's why that game is called Elden Ring and not Dark Souls 4
>>738021504That isn't Dark Souls. Elden Ring had different goals. Kill yourself btw
>>738021504Holy shit it has been 4 years.4 fucking years, and you filtered retard seeth daily about that game.Why these thrreads? FUCKING WHY? It's one of my all time favorite games, do you honestly think you can change someones oppinion?Just finally shut the fuck up.
>>738021504I finished ds1 and 3, but got burned out of elden ring and stopped at the dragon citty. not even at a boss, just in some random in between area.
>>738021504open world is retarded because it sacrifices a lot of resources to achieve the bare minimum
>>738024031For (you)’s, and good job retard it worked.
>>738024618>Filtered retard keeps seething
Yeah but open world sloppa is easily sold to normies and the fanatics will eat the shit anyways
To be fair, Dark Souls 2 and 3 sucked and Bloodborne had Chalice Dungeons, so clearly the idea of them making a game that was just the first half of Dark Souls 1 but throughout the entire game, let alone something better than that, was an impossible concept for them. Might as well have gone the open world slop route.
>>738021504Okay, so why did you post an image unrelated to the Dark Souls franchise?
>>738022286Stagger was fun.Didn't play PvP btw.
>>738024031People can have different opinions retard. I hated elden ring, the netcode is broken compared to invasions in Ds1 remastered. I can sit there all fucking day in ds1 and consistantly invade in the depths, blightown, anor londo and sometimes the painted world even. Meanwhile in elden ring im sitting there for 20 fucking minutes raviolli stepping waiting for invasion, i get one and then the netcode shits the bed and the connection times out. On the offchance you DO get an invasion its some oblivios shitter in limgrave or you get ganked by some dragon headed asshole in a field somewhere. Gone are the days when it was freshly released and you could invade at dorne or horgwarts and get some quality invasions ripe with stalking and trolling. Theres also no established level cap meta for low level invasions and the community is full of trannies like yourself. Shiggy diggy lick my nuts
>>738021504Do you see the words "Dark Souls" in the title, OP?
>>738027050It's Demon's Souls 6 in all but name you stupid faggot
>>738028150cope
>>738028150You mean Kings Field 10?
They really should have rethought some of the gameplay design. Stuff that works well in a smaller, shorter game doesn't work in a larger, longer game.The quests are annoying to keep track of. You meet some npc who says something, next time you go there they're gone. What the fuck did they say again? Where have they gone?The weapons are too annoying to upgrade. You can find a new weapons 65% into the game and have no idea how it will perform if you upgrade it up to the level your current weapon's level. It's a lot of time and resources to gamble on a weapon that just looks good.The game would really have benefited from a quest-log or conversation-log or similar, and the ability to downgrade weapons and get your resources back or some kind of test-environment to see how the new weapons perform. These things aren't needed in the DS games but would be really helpful in ER.
>>738027050it's literally the same universe
>>738031968No, it isn't
>>738021504>highly curatedIs that the new shillspeak for "flagrantly inorganic"?
>>738025848>playing a single player game for the multiplayer
>>738021627it's the next Skyrim, a great game for those who are still relatively new to games and haven't figured out what part they like.
>>738033345ancientfag here, we love elden ring, people who hate it are mostly zoomers who started playing games with Minecraft
First of all, Elden Ring has more and better traditional levels than all of the dark souls games put together. But secondly, and more relevant to your post, ELDEN RING'S WORLD IS CORRIDORS, which you would know if you had actually played it. Most of the world is a fucking spaghetti mess of paths that branch and intersect separated by level geometry. This is made even more extreme in the DLC.
>>738021504BASED. Fuck Elden DOGSHIT Ring tourists and newcomers, all of them, forever true.Armored Core VI Fires of Rubicon > Sekiro > Bloodborne > DaS2 > DaS:PTDE > DeS (2009) > DaS3 > Nightreign > Dogshit > Elden Ring
>>738034054On Mt. Gelmir is like that
Exploring open world was 1000x better than exploring Dark Souls. People fellate Dark Souls 1 because OH DUDE YOU CAN GO TO TOMB OF THE GIANTS IMMEDIATELY THATS CRAZY but Elden Ring is basically that on a grander scale and everyone hates it because its a field and not a linear path choice between A or B.
>>738036282>go somewhere in Elden Ring immediately>breaks all the questsWow thx Miyazaki great choices here
>>738034054I am tired of Elden Ring tourist telling people what Souls game should be like when they only played the easiest one made for retards because they knew what would happen when they pandered to GOT fans. The gall of these subhumans telling us what to think. We get it, you saw the vtubers, got the game on launch and now you think you are le hardcore gamer. Well, let me level with you but your favorite game was beaten by a girl on a DDR pad and a fish.At least Resident Evil Remake fans know their place in the trash.
>daily seethe threads over 4 YEARS latermindbroken
>>738021504I don't see Dark Souls written on that game.
>>738036749Same thing happens in all souls games.
>>738021504>Dark Souls was supposed to be aboutI'm sorry, who the fuck are you? I'm pretty sure the guy who made Dark Souls is the same guy who made Elden Ring, and that isn't you. Go make your own game.>not riding around an empty plain full of nothing on a horseIt's pretty shitty of them to call it Dark Souls when it isn't like Dar- wait a tick...
>>738036282>People fellate Dark Souls 1 because OH DUDE YOU CAN GO TO TOMB OF THE GIANTS IMMEDIATELY THATS CRAZYThat is not why we prefer Dark Souls, you will always be a secondary, fuck off.
>>738021504>Dark Souls was supposed to be about highly curated encounters in tight dungeon corridors,well it failed in its two sequels in that regard and elden ring isn't dark souls.
>>738040776>That is not why we prefer Dark Souls, Cool, now he will make a quality post on Dark Souls and its cultural releva->you will always be a secondary, fuck off....
>>738038250>I'm sorry, who the fuck are you? I'm pretty sure the guy who made Dark Souls is the same guy who made Elden Ring, and that isn't you. Go make your own game.Elden Ring is not made by Miyazaki alone, once again another secondary tourist underage son of a whore retard Eldne DOGSHIT Ring faggot exposes himself.Miyazaki even stated in interviews that he was insecure about Elden DOGSHIT Ring because so many aspects and elements of the game were made by others and not him. The project was simply way too big. The fact that you don't know these things shows that you are not a True FromSoftware fan or a True Souls fan.Thank God that Miyazaki has artistic integrity and didn't let the financial success blind him or FromSoftware, he took all that money and is spending it on making proper FromSoftware games again. For the forseeable future, FromSoftware will not make a massive game like Elden DOGSHIT Ring, instead they will focus on smaller projects in which directors can direct games without the involvement of Miyazaki, freeing Miyazaki up to work on his own passion projects.I am glad that Nightreign exposed and filtered millions of Elden DOGSHIT Ring newcomer tourist subhumans.I am so glad that The Duskbloods will expose 90% of all Elden DOGSHIT Ring newcomer tourist subhumans thanks to the forced PvP.Thank You Miyazaki <3And remember, you will never ever belong you disgusting Elden DOGSHIT Ring underage tiktok faggot son of a whore subhuman, fr fr, no cap.
>>738040935>Cool, now he will make a quality post on Dark Souls and its cultural releva-We made those posts for many years on /v/, you weren't here to participate because you are a seondary and you are entitled, fuck off.
>>738041119oh, so you don't really know...
>>738041173cope, secondary.
>>738021778>we>different = same as previously
DUDE elden ring came out years ago you need to get over it, the DLC fixed all those problems anyways.While I agree that the vast open world thing was kind of stupid cause it was just empty fields and deer and ateria leaves, elden ring is still the direct spiritual successor of DS1.
>>738021627but I don't want to be bread...
>>738021504The same can be said about BOTW/TOTK and the overall LoZ series.
>>738021504>find a small cave / dungeon>reward 99.999/100 times is some shitty spell or summon>all in a giant nothing field to pad game time with the same two bosses copy lasted at every tree>game is only good when dungeon crawling main points of interest like the castle, university, or cityThe open world kills any possibility of me playing through the game ever again, way too much empty space and useless mini dungeons / quests
>>738034054This.The people who say Elden Ring wasn't like Dark Souls because it was "open world" are shitposting. It's literally a bigger better Dark Souls. Way more levels that are far more complex. Has multiple "Ash Lake" moments but the areas have actual stuff in them. ER's "open world" is nothing like Skyrim or BotW, you can't simply run forward and go wherever you want at any time, you're very much beholden to the level design at all times.
>>738046203I don't see why, it just makes new builds easier. You don't need to go for all those small dungeons/tombs/etc that hold nothing of value for your build, and you can speedrun the ones that do.
>>738033345elden ring is the best fantasy game miyazaki has directed
>>738021504Dark Souls became soulless slop when they decided to make like 10 games.
>>738021504Its genuinely one of the best open world games of all time. The first time you enter altus from the normal route you have like 4 different directions you can go to that are very different and each is like a mini dark souls level.The problem is people have a shitter mindset and they are struggling to get through the game asap so they take the path of least resistance every time and just run past everything on the horse instead of actually playing the game and fighting through it. I can forgive new players who are overwhelmed but souls vets who do that are big pussies, honestly.
>>738021504the world is the only good thing about it
>>738021504I really only use Torrent if I want to make a beeline for a specific item. Otherwise I walk.
