DaS is a huge downgrade from DeS
>Entire second half is borderline incomplete, empty, and sterile
>Level design in general is just much less consistent with way more annoying "that part"s
>some of the worst environments of all the Souls games like Anor Londo, Catacombs, Ash Lake, Great Hollow, Crystal Caves, Valley of Drakes, Lost Izalith
>godawful enemies like the bonewheel skeletons, Stray Demons, Anor Londo Archers, Drakes
>many bosses are underwhelming or poorly designed, like O&S, Priscilla, Capra, Quelaag, Pinwheel, Seath, Taurus, Ceaseless Discharge, Bed of Chaos
>bosses are already starting to focus primarily on action/rolling with less focus on original and puzzle bosses
>recycles the same boss three times
>Hitboxes and i-frames are more inconsistent
>Retarded mechanics like curse and common consumables only sold by select merchants (I played 1.00)
>can't fast travel anywhere until over halfway into the game, constantly backtracking and running from one end of the world to the other just to buy an item, go to a covenant, or upgrade equipment
>gives lttle reason to engage with enemies, you can just sprint past almost all of them to the next checkpoint (especially since you will have to do this a dozen times anyways while backtracking for vendors/quest NPCs)
>many of the key mechanics are poorly explained (lordvessel, upgrading estus, kindling, pardoning)
>game world is a convoluted mess with necessary NPCs scattered into the far corners of the world (the interconnected world starts to become more contrived as the game goes on), again requiring a ton of backtracking
>dogshit platforming sections
>only basically one main path you can take that you find through trial and error and backtracking. Less flexibility in boss order
>DeS had focus on invasions, mindgames, and power dynamics, with risk reward for human vs soul form. DaS is about "le honorable duel" with no downside to hollow and you just summon at the boss door; devalues the whole experience

Nope, Silksong is a 6/10 and while the DLC might improve it, the game has too many core issues and shitty design choices that go against it's metroidvania gameplay. I beat P5, PoP and Steel Soul in HK, and upon getting 100% in SS I can confidently say I wouldn't play a SS Pantheon.
>>
>>738285440
>when Act 3 is just a glirified boss
in no way is it a boss rush
>when the reward for 90% of exploration is just beads or a spool piece which have minimal gameplay impact
calling extra silk insignificant is a hilarious reach, and people often complained about too few beads
>when you it takes till act 3 for the game to give you a more efficient way to backtrack
save and quit dumbfuck
>with the retarded damage formula that nerfs your damage upgrades
youtube complaint. nobody has ever noticed this
>with the forced arena fights because otherwise there is 0 reason to not just dash past every enemy in an area
you could use this argument for every video game
>with the constant need to be "le Dark Souls of indie games" and be harder than it's prequel even if it negatively impacts gameplay
made up scenario. if anything its more akin to majoras mask where the original is the tutorial and they expect you to have played it for the sequel. id argue thats a good thing actually

I treat this game as a spin off and as such it's a 9/10 game
Demon Souls

>Flamelurker blew up my headphones
Game is fucking mid that is carried by an amazing soundtrack but dated controls as well but is a shame because Old Hero is probably the best gimmick boss in the entire series. 6/10
The Legend of Zelda Link to the Past
>Idk I got no comment besides the game is kinda boring? I may have to go back to replay it since I haven't played it since I was a teenager but I did like Minish Cap so...

I shouldn't have to explain to you what a boss rush is

correct. you did not notice this on your own and I would bet a whole fuck ton of money on it. deny all you want but I'm not stupid

sure didn't

>>
>>738287925
not an argument
>>
>>738287771
>>There's only two good levels
>>Level 1 and Level 4
>>The mines were forgettable
It has the best levels in the entire series and some of the best level design of all time. World 2 is really the only even somewhat weak area in the game, and mostly only 2-2, still a fun archstone though with some good bosses, and not nearly as bad as latter half of Dark Souls
>>Checkpoints where too far apart so backtracking is aids
They're really not, there are constant shortcuts and cutbacks to save time. Demon's Souls is not meant to be some bossrush game, so the boss runbacks are a bit longer, but you are meant to farm up more or consider a new approach if struggling with a boss instead of just bashing your head against a wall. This is not a game where you must endlessly throw yourself at a boss to learn every exact attack animation for roll timing, this is not that type of game, bosses are more for the experience/puzzle aspect and meant as a part of their environment.
>>The whole prison level is bloated as hell and I was wondering when it was going to end
The actual best level in the game, holy shit you are a stupid subhuman.
>>Valley of defilement is everything blightown got right, even if the poison shit is annoying but there's no joy in replaying the game again because of that
Blighttown is a shitty retread of the poison swamp that is worse in nearly every way
>>Inventory system is annoying to work with
??? What are these nonsensical zoomer complaints
>>Nerfed health pool if you die
Yes, there is actual penalty to being in soul form, the game gives you plenty of options to remove or negate the penalty
>>Backtracking to Allant is fucking dreadful
Fair, just do him last after you've leveled up
>>Flamelurker blew up my headphones
???

Conclusion: you are a retarded zoomermutt golem who played Demon's Souls a decade after release and completely misunderstood what the game was going for and rushed through expecting a kaizo bossrush like the shitty later Souls games.
>>
>>738288079
you also made zero arguments of substance. Im just attempting to engage on the same level as someone who thinks "save and quit" is a valid response to poor level design. Absolute hollow tranny moment

It's tiresome dealing with you low IQ browns
>>
>doubles down
Lmao what a little cretin. And go ahead and bet all you have and throw in your life while you're at it because it's extremely easy to notice, all it takes is fighting the ants and counting the hits, getting your upgrade, fighting them again and noticing the number of hits drops for 1 ant enemy but not the other. It was so jarring in fact I went online to see if it was a bug but nope it's a completely unnecessary "feature" that they added to justify spending a decade on this game.
That was your last (you) from me btw, no more free dopamine for low effort bait.

>>738288097
>It has the best levels in the entire series
That goes to World 4 with the old hero even if it has it's problems when it comes to backtracking to that kino boss.
>They're really not
Yes they do, sure there is shortcuts but it doesn't make it any better and Dark Souls fixed this and isn't a hassle to runback to
>Demon melty over a level I didn't like
I accept your concession and no, even Level 1 is better by miles
>Thinks Blightown is worse than Valley of defilement
Oh no he's retarded
>Zoomdoomboom babble
Having to manage my inventory being full was obnoxious, thank fuck this was fixed in the next game
>Defending health nerf
Too fucking bad, I never liked it, same as DS2 but they made it inherently worse
>Do Allant last
Done that funny enough, but I'm not playing the game again
>Headphones joke
You don't remember how fucking loud Flamelurker is?

Conclusion: You're a basedlenial contrarian mongoloid makes it their personality that DeS game is the best souls game, which it isn't is like 20 steps away from being DS2 garbage. I played DS1 before playing DeS and I still find it to be a mid experience. Have fun with that shitty remake which has flooded your OG game

Mega Man X1.

You are a *faggot* if you have a 10/10 list without this on it.

MGS1 isn't even a game. The only actual games in the mainline series are 3 and V.
>>
>>738287771
Code Veronica is shit. I don't care if it's fixed angles and "that's what RE should be." It's not even the best classic RE by a country mile. RE4 is a 10/10 regardless of "series expectations."

>>738285143

>>738284828
RE4 can be a 10/10, I love DeS but it's not. A Link to the Past and Silksong are both mid.

Here are my 10/10's for people to judge:
Patapon 2
Rocket Slime
Riviera: The Promised Land
Sly 2: Band of Thieves
Armored Core 6
Final Fantasy 5
>>
>>738291683
Sly 2, man? It's an amazing ride the first time, but there's so much distracting shit that only works once. It's the kind of huge indulgent game that doesn't get made anymore (like that, anyway), but it's filled with bad ideas.

>>
>>738291880
I replayed Sly 1 and 2 last year and I'd say it still held up. Sly 2 succeeds in not wearing out its welcome with the gimmicks while still having a great variety of stuff to do. The "build-up" of setting up heists is great and I can still appreciate the times they go wrong even when I know in advance what happens. The final boss is a bit weak but I like how Neyla serves as a foil to Sly and Carmelita, and becoming Clockwerk is the ultimate expression of that.
>>
>>738284927
>>738285003
Demon Souls is better artistically but I think in terms of game design it's meant to be a lot more cryptic and bullshit compared to Dark Souls being an actual (polished) action game
>>
>>738287868
I don't think you can retroactively apply reddit humor to something like that though

Neyla serves as a fap target for me.

Sly 1 I think is too linear and Sly 3 has even worse bad ideas (cast too big, terrible missions, hubs that are too big and not very fun, pirate level). I think Sly 2 is probably the most replayable and outside of the cherry bomb segments honestly fun and interesting Sly game. I just wish the other characters could steal like Sly could like they did in 3 and 4. As for bad ideas, I think they fit extremely well with the game's directing despite being bad ideas, like the Bentley only level or India, as well as baiting you with what sounds to be entirely better levels that we never got to see (Cairo, Monaco, etc) but it was still quite good. Unfortunately I just can't say the same with the same level of enjoyment and respect for the direction in 3,4, and 1 despite some really cool shit happening in those games too. 2 might be the best game in the series I think
