How can you defend shit like this?

How can you defend shit like this?

I don't recall people defending this

but it's fun :D

I especially love how the stairs behind the door are inverted, like designer KNEW that the design of Drangleic Castle was terrible and nonsensical so he just went the extra mile to fuck with you.

you can't desu senpai

>Non-ghost Aurous gear
Does it still remain as one of the rarest sets in the entire game? Same with Ruin Sentinel armor

Whole DS2 is full of retarded rare drops.

Oh yeah, like farming those ninjas in that one bossfight

I see everyone wearing Aurous. It's incredibly easy to get in SotFS, you just need the cat ring.

Name THREE good "level designs" in the Souls series. I'll wait.

...

...

...

...

Oh that's right, it's Sanctum City, Frozen Eleum Loyce, and Tower of Latria

That means the majority of the good levels in this series are from Dark Souls 2. Please cherry pick the elevator to the old iron keep again, I'm sure it will mean something this time

Sen's, Painted World and Research Hall are great too.

Eleum Lloyce doesn't deserve to be on there.

Fishing Hamlet and Central Yharnam were better than Research Hall.

I don't get it

OP gets mad if games aren't easy

>No mention of Boletarian Palace, the best level design in the series
Ask me how I know you're a pleb

>drop down and can't go back in DS1
WOW GENIUS DESIGN YOU HAVE TO COMMIT TO YOUR DECISIONS I'M LITERALLY CUMMING BLESS MIYAZAKI-DONO

>drop down and can't go back in DS2
WOW WORST GAME EVER

>shit, shit and shit
DS2 fags everyone. Absolutely delusional

Boletarian Palace was nothing special by any means. You have a lot of explaining to do if you actually think it competes with those other three

...

(You)

Anor Londo, Undead Settlement, Sen's Fortress

Latria is not shit. Unless you're a faggot, Sanctum City is not shit either.

>reply as empty as a DS1 fanboy's skull

Its called a sawtooth, it's a level design element that prevents you from going backwards. They're everywhere in basically anything.

Undead burg, catacombs, and sens are all great areas

I'm surprised more people don't whine about DaS1's lingering AoE hitboxes. They can be total cancer for a lot of bosses.

>drop down and can't go back in DS1
where

git gud

Why was that place so ass? At least the boss was piss easy so I didn't have to do it multiple times once I got that far.

defend this

That's true, but at least they make sense physically. A little ledge that's not even the height of the character looks dumb as something that you can't get over.

Every co-op area was an ass, but they got increasingly bullshit as the DLCs went on.

How new are you ? There's literally been SHOCKWAVE gifs and webm from DaS1 and 2 since it came out.

holy shit is this real?

Tower of Latria's my favorite
How does Sup Forums feel about Shrine of Storms?

Every single edge

Defend this, DS2drones.

why does that background look like it was cut out of a sheet of paper with scissors

Artoricuck fanboys cant handle the truth

You're probably a guy who defends the Dragon on the undead bridge in DS1 aren't ya op?

>From Software "LEVEL DESIGN"
Why don't Soulsfags move to actually demanding games like DMC and Ninja Gaiden. Not only are the souls games ugly, piss-easy, horribly animated and with the most retarded level design ever imagined (DUDE SPIRALS THE LOOP INTO EACH OTHER LMAO THE WORLD IS LIKE CUP NOODLES), but the combat is boring as fuck. Just go play an actual fucking action game

>not doing it naked
YOUR TOO SLOW!

What's worse in SotFS is how they gutted the gameplay design of that room. The statues no longer come to life, and instead you're expected to lure one of the Mannikins from the next room over so you can use its soul to power the golem. The Mannikins do not spawn infinitely. So if you kill too much, they will stop spawning permanently, and because you can't use an Ascetic before killing the area boss, you'll be stuck.

Burg, Parish, Sen's, Darkroot Garden/Basin

Yeah, it happened to me just like that like 3 times before I made it through.

Actually a neat idea but completely ruined by the fucking lightning horses

>those awful rain effects in Drangleic Castle
Seriously how the fuck did they get away with that? If you're inside there's no rain outside, if you're outside then it's raining inside.

If they're so piss-easy why haven't you beaten them?

They had to give A-Team jobs

>Souls is hard sos git gud scrub there'ss nothing wrong with the fucking dragon that comes sout of nowhere and instakills you
>W-WHAT DO YOU MEAN YOU USED MAGIC AND COMPLETELY BREEZED THROUGH THE ENTIRE GAME, T-THAT DOESN'T COUNT YOU WERE SUPPOSED TO PLAY BY ARBITRARY FAIRNESS RULES DESPITE THE GAME HAVING NONE REEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE

Soulsfags are pathetic

I hate Dark Souls

>tfw someone saves your webm and starts a das2hate thread with it

Same way they got away with switching to nighttime when you step out of sunny burg

...

I started with vanilla DSII, beat it without any patches since I was playing apirated copy on the 360, moved back to DSI, beat it in a week, beat the DSII DLCs, beat DSSIII the week it came out and just finished bloodborne.

I had far more fun and was more challenged playing through DMC4 SE. Souls is for people who want to pretend to be good at videogames, but can't handle games that demand actual fast and technical inputs.

give it to me straight, fellas... is DaSII worth playing?

Sure, just set your expectations as low as possible

this, then you will find its better than 3

>Soulsshitters trying to outshit each other with their bug-ridden meme games

I do agree. DS2's shit so maybe you could give Bloodborne a go.
You could also try Demon's Souls. It fucks around substantially less than Dark Souls and forces you to focus because enemies hit much harder.

lmao how can one person be so bad

This, and I actually like DS2.

>can get lost easily if you don't know the sun trick
>some random items that aren't worth much scattered in the area
>infinite rape horses
>if you manage to get to the end, it's a fight against lmao2cat
>if you die you have to do it all over again for some measly souls

I nope'd the fuck out.

On the other hand, everything about Burnt Ivory King is great. Even though I can't beat. Why the fuck did they have to shit over casters in the DLCs.

It's great but Sup Forums is the wrong place to ask about it

1 and 3 fags will never EVER recover.

STOP
BULLYING
DARK SOULS 2

DaS = Bloodborne > DeS > DaS3 >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>DaS2

because casters are OP in the main game.

True on the shitscale

I'm finally playing through the DLCs via the PS4 version

Why the fuck do people like this faggot so much? He's the same as every other strafe and roll boss in the game except he has a metric fuckton of health because nothing says fun like poking someone to death.

VERY cool post

You can't. DS2 is a shit game made by FROM's B-team. Bloodborne and DS3 were being made while DS2 was still in development. It's obvious which games got the priority.

Don't forget this shit in Lost Bastille.

A flat branch in blighttown some-fucking-how.

This show is going to be great for reaction images.

The absolute state of ds1 ''praise the sun'' casuls
>Spams praise the sun messages everywhere on the game
>Has to actually follow the sun once in his life
> ''OH SHIT DARK SOULS 2 SUCKS WHERE IS MIYAZAKI FUCK B TEAM HORSEFUCK VALLEY SUCKS IM LOST''

SHOCKWAVES have been bitched about forever, DaS1 babies just shouted them down with GIT GUD.

>He had fun with DMC4SE
Seriously? You had more fun playing another version of half a game that literally repeats itself in one playthrough and literally fixed none of the problems from the original release? And this is coming from someone who likes both DMC and Dark Souls. I enjoy the series because I like the atmosphere, level design, (in DeS, DaS1 and BB) bosses and music. The fact that you dismiss people who like the Souls games as guys who "pretend to be good at videogames" and ignore every single other positive that the series might have is quite frankly pathetic. Especially since you like one of the biggest blunders of the DMC series.

THE ABSOLUTE STATE OF SOULSFAGS

Just Bloodborne?

>drop down a dozen feet or more

woah
>drop down off a knee high ledge
>can't go back up
woah

Every game but DeS is shit then

This thread

>drop from 3 feet
>take noticeable damage
>drop from 3 feet
>die

*inhales*

I don't remember where it is in 2 but there's literally a drop off somewhere that doesn't even come up to your knees, and if you walk off it you have to go all the way around to a ladder and climb all the way up a building to get back to where you were. I think it might've been one of the belltowers.

Nothing about 2 makes any sense and all of it is equally aggravating and disappointing.

Thanks for contributing, reddit

good thing I waited until it was $9.99 in the Steam sale

I'm gonna wait until DaS3 + DLC is $9.99 too

>Drangleic """"""""""Castle""""""""""
At least Anor Londo made sense even if it wasn't really a city, this is just an abomination.

First time around soulsfags? Wait til there's a civilized discussion about weapons and builds

>b-b-but DS2 DLCs are better!

"No!"

>drop from 50 feet
>nothing
>drop from 51 feet
>faceplant into the ground and die
fall damage has been a meme since Demon's

the first time isn't bullshit, it's trying to get past him that is

you can lure him down but then it's RNG whether or not he arbitrarily decides to burn the whole bridge and OHKO you

Anal Rodeo was just as nonsensical and ten times uglier.

You are most welcome faggot

>Anor londo was nonsensical
what
