You mean the chugging meta that was established in one and carried throughout the series? Two was notoriously bad for this.

Boss fights were new and interesting.

I don't know what you mean by Destiny tier farming. Only thing that sucked was upgrade materials, which they've fixed.

Magic has always sucked, play the game how it was intended to be played.

Everything else was fixed and or you're just nitpicking.



Best story to come out since the first dark souls. Best level design since the first dark souls. Interesting lore and optional bosses that were actually difficult.

 The dungeons were p shit but they afforded some cool options when considering weapons and builds.

Beautiful fucking game with awesome lore and gameplay. 10/10 will play again.

By "new and interesting" you mean Six thousand giant dogs all with the same strategy of Parry them 20 times in a row, break their legs and spam fire bombs?
Bloodborne's autistic over agressive Sanic gotta go fast combat is shit and the fact that it carried over into Dark Souls 3 is a shame.

And I cant tell if you are trolling about magic "always having been bad" or what game you've been playing but magic untill Bloodborne came along was anything but bad, in fact i f anything, Dark spells and hexes strait up broke PVP. And then in Dark Souls 3 did nothing but made it worse with the Mana bar, and it's absolute hell and next to impossible to create a half decent mage build at SL 120.
You have to make far to many investments in just about every aspect in order to just use sorceries that you have nothing else going for you. Having to make a glass cannon build would not be a problem for me. That's how Ive played throug before and its how i'm playing through now, but being said class cannon is worthless in 3 because said cannon is next to nonexistant.

Ranged spells will always miss now if your opponet is simply walking sideways, and they can just punish you on pure reaction if they are using a crossbow since they are faster. You cant use them as a rush punish tool because they are far too slow to cast and even the homing soulmass spells don't work right. Body buffs are next to  worthless, you cant buff any of the weapons you will be using  and the melee spells are too slow to be of any use. If you try to Farron sword somebody, if they don't instantly parry for how slow it is, you are dealing next to no damage anyway. And on top of all of that, casting eats though your stamina just as fast as it drains you mana.

Far better than using spells you can just use the avelyn with normal bolts and have far better results, especially using it as a rush punish. It's faster, deals more damage and you have enough stats after investing in the Avey to use a good backup weapon, and, or shield and or good armor, and or literaly whatever the hell you feel like investing in.

Tl;DR: The difference between Dark Souls 1/2 magic and Bloodborne and Bloodblorne 2: Dark Swords magic is like the difference between Melee Samus and Smash 4 Samus.

I'm bad at the game, so it sucks. We were talking about Bloodborne, not how it affected dark souls 3.


While there were a few giant beast bosses there was far more variety in Bloodborne than dks2 and dks3. Ebrietas was one of the most unique and difficult boss fights in the whole series.

Bloodborne is about being aggressive and melee oriented, just cause you don't particularly like it doesn't mean it wasn't fantastic.

I already posted a video adressing that.

>Gets parried.
>Survives with no HP
>R1 Spams again
>Lags through parry
>I end up dead from nearly full health
The concept for the counter is there but it does nothing to fix the game's shit netcode facilitating it

Have something that gives you distance.

A poke ability or a spear/halberd that can hit from a distance. Or use a ranged ability, magic or a bow or crossbow.

Bait them, make them start their spam fest and waste stamina, even if it doesn't use them much. A lot of players who spam it generally don't pay attention to that.

Trade them, play it smart and get the trade off. You can stunlock just as much as them. If you use hyperamor correctly you can time your hit to "poise" through their first R1 and hit just before their second. Giving you the stunlock and the ability to hit them again.

And then the parry, backstab, or if they use a shield the kick.

And yes you can try and say "b-but the net code!" Yeah sure it sucks but 1/10 games will have the lag so bad that they are 10x harder, and contrary to your belief it can always be worked around. You face harder challenges in Dark Souls than a friggin R1 spammer.

What kind of pussy ass invader, invades and then runs and runs. Doesn't even want to make a gesture. Is that what PvP is now? Invade, run, run and spam R1. WHAT THE FUCK.
I had the fucker down to almost no health three times but then he heals and runs away.
And no, it's not getting gud.
Apologies for the harsh words, but... what the actual fuck has happened to PvP.
Just going to edit a comment I made in, simply because people were getting extremely butthurt over the things stated up above.
here it goes: Okay, to people say they had similar experiences in DS1 and Demon Souls, okay YOU had those expereinces. I did not.
If you think I am complaining then ignore my post. There's not a rule that you HAVE to comment.
AND I am not saying invaders are obligated to do this or that, I am saying that invaders in demons and ds1 (according to my experiences which isn't outdated!) where different. This is my experiences and my opinion. MY OPINION.
Most of you are acting as if I am trying to enforce some sort of rules for invader I AM QUITE FUCKING aware that there's NO RULES.
And also I was merely remarking that PvP is not what it has been. It is a very simple status.

Boss you basically just agreed with most salty invaders in Dark Souls 3 and then backtracked to make sure nobody needs to start a debate with you. That was kinda pointless.

Got Dark Souls 3 as a birthday present, and I think I've thoroughly enjoyed my time with it.  I never played much of Souls 1, and 2 I kind of stopped playing because it couldn't hold my interest.  But with the rather meh-tier games that came out during the spring, I ended up getting the game since my friends were hyping it up to me.   I don't know why, but I kind of preferred the faster, stay-on-your-toes playing style. Admittedly the game feels very easy when you memorize the attack patterns, but I can't say it's not satisfying when you finally take down the bosses.

And I just got Bloodborne in the mail yesterday, so I started going through that for about an hour and a half.  Same as Dark Souls 3, I'm enjoying the play style and don't mind the hyper aggressive AI.  It just teaches you caution to slowly whittle down the mobs instead of rushing straight into them.

Think I might play the first Dark Souls and SotFS again.  DS3 really rejuvenated my interest in the series.
