What are some soulslikes that shine due to level design? Wuchang was a pleasant surprise
>>739611562You forgot a piece of the puzzle
Darks souls 2 has good level design in a sense that they put a lot of thought into it, too bad their end goal was to troll the player
>all these years and this is still rent-freegames used to be iconic
>>739612930It's iconically shit.
>>739612930Dark souls 1 was a set up, dark souls 2 is a punchline, making people play that piece of shit game is a perfect bit
>>739612842I agree. But honestly, that's what made it fun, and I wouldn't like it any other way.There's this part in Huntsman's Copse, where you go through a door onto a narrow balcony, and across from it, a row of archers in the dark using you as target practice.You have to run to the other side of the balcony to sloooowly open a door to escape. But if you think the joke ends with you getting pin cushioned while locked in a door opening animation, there is a guy with a comically large club waiting right on the other side.How can you not love it for how stupid, but clever, all of this is.None of these guys hit hard + you get a million healgems, so you get to enjoy these trolls without them feeling evil or unfair.
>>739612930People still think about Dark Souls 2 because From Software has been releasing Dark Souls on loop years. It's natural to finish Elden Ring and think about going to Dark Souls 2 next. You shouldn't.
The only things I remember about dark souls 2 is looking up in the cave with the boat and being able to see rooms because they forgot to model a ceilingAnd the fact that half the game occurs because there is some chest high rubble in the way
>>739611562Stop making memes about Saddam Hussein he was literally the greatest leader in history, now that he’s gone no one to keep Iranian and Israeli chimpouts in check
>>739613725There's different eras of fromslopDES and DS1 feel mostly similarDS2 is its own piece of shitBB and DS3 feel mostly similarSekiro is its own beastER is peak
>>739612842that's retarded and has nothing to do with the physical space making no senseretards like you are always bending over backwards to make excuses, like it's impossible that a game could ever be made badly by accident.
>>739614035>ER is peakPeak dogshit
>>739614035There are attempts at differences like more focus on combat or a larger world. Still, they could be named Demon's Souls 2, 3, 4 and 5 without anyone thinking they don't fit. Bloodborne and Sekiro are different enough from Demon's Souls, but Bloodborne is still very close except it's not about generic fantasy knights.
