Worst Souls game?
| Bloodborne
| Salt and Sanctuary. :^)
| Dark Souls 2, too easy after beating the game first time and some mechanics are meh
| I would say either night of revenge but that isnt finished yet so demons sperm along with dark souls 2 (not the scholar of the first sin edition version)
| Every souls game sucks more than anything that sucked before
| Idk, but the best one is unterdale
| none. because, souls games have unique atmospheric "dark" feeling. if you don't think that way, you should play again.
| 3rd. It's unplayable piece of garbage with broken mechanics. Also everything what's good in old games is broken in 3rd one. I FUCKING HATE THIS GAME
| Also remastered is just a joke they broke pvp with humanity fix for invaders BUT THEY'VE KEPT FUCKING CHAIN BACKSTABS AND BAD ROLLING. Like if you're going to make invasions easier for new players perhaps you should fix essential broken mechanics first and only then forbis usage of humanities?????!!!!!
| Outside of the PVP issues the first game is the best though IMO.
| Dark Souls 2, they took all the worst aspects of the first one and made them even worse, added more unnecessary shit mechanics like lowering health after death and the overall feel of the game was all wrong. At least DS3 did most things right.
| DS3
| >>280891
DS2 TRIED TO INVENT SOMETHING UNLIKE DS3 YOU KNOW! ALSO THERE ARE INTERSTING AND COMPLEX MECHANICS LIKE BONFIRE ASCETICS AND BRAND NEW RINGS
| Bloodborne
| Sometimes I like to think that each one is equally terrible and awesome. Dark Souls 2 gets a lot of hate and some of it is definitely warranted. But playing them offline and online changes a lot. I enjoyed DS2 online. Ds1 online was just chain backstabs. Dark Souls 3 aka straight sword or die verison. They're all broken.
| dark souls 2 is dog shit. scholars is worse.
it's apparently okay when dark souls 2 references shit or reuses des/das1 stuff the time but if dark souls 3 shows anor londo and references gwyn directly, then fanboysl ose their shit.
| Btw those who says that Demon's Souls is shit has a real shit taste lul
| ...Nioh...
| >>281317
Nioh is alright, I liked the faster paced combat and combos, the problem is the repetitiveness and the loot system.

It's really popular to say that these days. I don't think DeS is better than BB, DaS1 or DaS3 but man there's so much cool things about the game like Flamelurker who is IMO timeless and a lot like bosses in BB and 3 the most.
Lots of people simply don't want to admit DeS was a great game and say it aged pooly, it's as easy as Dark Souls 1 - and that isn't a bad thing.
| For every ds1 reference there is in ds2 there are 5 in ds3. That game is nothing but "hey remember this". Pair that with it's lame combat and I would really say it's worse than ds2. Ds2 was different. It had shitty parts. But at least it was more functional. Apples and oranges I guess.
| sorry mate but when your game has literally ornstein, literally bellfry/maneaters x 4, a dog boss that's sif without a sword that vomits, the ng+ souls, a talking cat, the fucking solaire shield that's a picture of solaire on it.
ds2 is the black sheep, but also a black sheep reliant on the other games that came before it.
das3 references demon's souls a lot more, other than story stuff for dark souls 1.
| >>6354f5 Either you didn't play ds3 or... Yeah you must not have played it if you believe what you just said. The entire game is ds1 reliant.
| even dark souls being a hard fucking game, but it's cool ...
| >>79c841
Bring up a picture of 1-3's ramparts leading up to Twin Princes, the Nexus, Gerait being stockpile Thomas, 2-2 being heavily referenced in Lothric Dungeon, Morion Blade, Storm Ruler, return of Red Eyed Knights, Gargoyles back to having spears like the ones in DeS (also on the Latria inspired levels), etc.
Only a fool (parrot) thinks DaS1 is referenced more than Demon's Souls in DaS3.
| oops I meant 3-1, not 2-2.
| Dark souls 3.
The game felt lifeless, the weapon balancing was awful, and most weapon arts are copypasted or just "dude check out this super annie may move ecks dee" the only good examples of actually good weapon arts that are unique in that game is the crescent moon sword's and the follower's saber.
| Congrats on helping me see that ds3 really is less original than ds2.
| Bitch
| >>282902
Wait until you realise how unoriginal Dark Souls 1 when it reuses Demon's Souls stuff. Or how Raime and Drangleic Troopers all use Paladin Leroy's armour design.
As far as I'm concerned, 3 is allowed to reference the very first game (Demon's Souls) as much as it pleases - if it is the final game.
| Anyone that seriously thinks DS2 is better than DS3 is mentally handicapped.
| >>280891
So... DS3 doesn't lower your health after death in your opinion? That's something new to me xD
| Um no. Without using Ember after death, you've much less health than you could have. It's harder to spot but it really lowers hard after death. Also there was no actual semi-permanent hp lowering in DS1 besides the curse which doesn't work exactly like that in DS3. You could use humanities there like a full hp recovery item or a way to summon someone but it doesn't increase your max hp at all.
| Demon's Souls was the worst one I've played in my opinion.
| >>283144
Using ember raises %30 of your HP, dying resets it to normal, in DS2 each time you die your MAX HP lowers further and the only way to recover it is through effigies, but effigies, like pretty much everything else in this game including enemies, is limited in quantity, so die enough times and you're stuck hollowed and with 50% of your health, your only choice is to either join Champions covenant, start invading/cooping or pray at the shrine of Amana.
| >>283254
While in DS1&3 all you have to do is kill some enemies and you get some humanity/ember. DS2 overcomplicates everything for no damn reason.

Some of the bosses were disappointing (see Dragon God) and areas like Latria Tower were hard ad fuck but I still prefere Demon instead of games like DS2 imo, why do you consider it the worst?
| 2 for sure
| STOP BULLYING DS2 PLEASE!!!
| >>acf67d I felt the game to be overall less cohesive and engaging. Even DS2 which was pretty lackluster scores a little over it for me, I'm not going any of them is bad. Demon's is just the one that felt the worst, I guess. It's just a matter of preference which game is the best or worst for people.
| Speaking of the remastered, do we know if poise is working in it
