>Lets just forget the game
why is the trailer always inverse to the game itself
Dark Souls 2 is up there as one of my favourite games ever made so you've got the wrong guy here friendo although I didnt get caught up in the hype originally so that might be why.
MGSV however killed my excitement for any new games and since I completed it I can never look forward to a new game again in case its "another MGSV".
Uhmmmm, try again sweetie
>Dark Souls 2 is up there as one of my favourite games ever made
SOTFS is my favorite Souls game and the one I most enjoy replaying, best fucking replayability of the series and the best PvP and the best coop PvE and the best overall mechanics of the series
""friendo""
fucking get in here I need more belltower invasions
I'm replaying the game albeit the SOTFS version of it and I'm having a much better time with it than I had with DaS3, which I played up until ashes of ariendel
i thourugglly enjoyed darks souls 2 more than 1

From makes some of the absolute most top tier trailers in the world. My eternal gripe with DS2 above all else is that the masked enemies were not part of the story and gameplay hunting you down throughout the game
The funny thing is the exact same thing was meant to happen in MGSV. The Skulls were going to hunt you down randomly in the game world which would have made the terrible side quests a tiny bit more interesting.
Not even the best DS2 trailer.

I wasn't aware there was another one. I only knew of the Aching Bones trailer.
If there is a single thing that could have made MGSV a good enough game to look past any other flaws it would have been good boss fights. The only decent one was Quiet and even that was just alright in the face of The End. Throw in 3-5 decent, classic MGS style boss fights with random Skull encounters I could have forgiven every other flaw of the game
The story in DS2 interested me so much more than 1. 1 explained the world and why it is the way it is but in 2 the story was around the curse of the undead and how it effects individual people. You and everyone around you came to Drangleic to fix the curse but you're all forgetting your purpose and becoming hollow. It could be shoddy developing but the nonsensical world could just be your character forgetting large chunks of his journey. You can see how the world becomes more disjointed and surreal as the game goes on whereas the early areas are more straightforward and have more of the classing Dark Souls style loops.
3 let me down more than anything because they took the surreal, high fantasy elements of 2 and threw them out of the window for a bland corridor of a world with no sense of adventure. I was waiting for the game to surprise me with an area I did not expect but instead around every corner it was another dungeon or cathedral or swamp. The only exception is Archdragon Peak but it was too little too late by that point.
>You and everyone around you came to Drangleic to fix the curse
No. Humans come to Drangleic because they are drawn to the first flame, and they're not aware of this.
>It could be shoddy developing but the nonsensical world could just be your character forgetting large chunks of his journey.
Fuck you.
>faram armour and the herald are literally the only things that made it to the game
The old Iron Kingdom did. IMO, for both PvE and serious PvP and casual PvP it was the best overall area in the game.
500 k souls and you could stay there forever with both PvE and PvP. Bell/Sun bro for life

These are all in the trailer
Yes, shame the game got shit on though for the sake of Bloodborne having to be developed alongside it. I will never not be mad, but I still do love bloodborne.
Eh, Bloodborne just proves that From needs to develop individual games that only have vague allusions to one another or easter eggs in lore. Look how DS3 was and that was still the A team. DeS and BB are the two best Soulsborne by a mile
Am I the only one that thought BB was shit?
I feel like I'm the only one who thought it was worse then DS2.
Yea, perhaps completely falsified versions of those things
Yes, plenty of bbs boss fights were individually better than everything from had done previously, and the worst were still as good or better than anything das 2 had to offer
...
Why did people tale to that mask so much? It's unremarkable.
Wasnt there some lawsuit from the creators of Naruto or something that stopped that mask making it into the final game?
Either way it doesnt fit the world and the replacement is pretty sweet.
I can't fathom how anyone would think BB is shit. Gameplay it's by far the strongest of any Soulsborne. Individually had overall the best boss fights in the series. Had the best DLC of the series. The lore going from a creepy city falling to some sort of blood plague to fucking Cthulu cosmic horror entities was fucking great. Despite a vastly smaller number of weapons and magic, they all have extremely different play styles rather than being majority copy paste like other Souls.
I would need a 4 or 5 page essay on how you could possibly hate Bloodborne to even begin to fathom your reasoning
>game released in 2012.
>They could have delayed it 1 year so it woudn't have been downgraded
>game released in 2012.
???
holy fuck i forgot that it was released in 2014. It's even more retarded.
Holy fuck imagine if it was released 2015
They're even more retarded
Shit happens, man. As for:
>They could have delayed it 1 year so it woudn't have been downgraded
Naw. The game was originally being directed by a dude named Shibuya. Bamco took a look at the direction he was taking it, reportedly more open than DaS according to a From Software producer, and said "no." They scrapped half the game and put Tanimura in charge to wrap it up six months from launch. I can get links if you want.
IMO
The final mask is the best trolling headgear
They didn't even fix the IronKeep elevator, honestly I doubt Tanimura did much better
>nobody cant use masks in game because naruto
Quite a bit of Earthen Peak leading to Iron Keep was cut.

>From Software had to change the mask design due to legal issues with Naruto anime/manga, which is probably also why manikins met in-game are headless. Maybe Fromsoft had no time or desire to redesign their heads with new mask.
>Terrible Game
Thank you Blur Studio
