What do you want to return in DS3 from previous Souls games?

Big Boss · August 05, 2015, 06:51:50 AM

If any.

I wouldn't mind having the Elite Knight set again. Also Artorias' sword.

Deesbee · August 05, 2015, 06:54:07 AM

The blade that does the stuff with the things.

The defensive, cautious style that was before BloodBorn.

It looks like they want to do more BloodBorn in the trailer...

Well watching somebody stand there with a shield up and block attacks wouldn't make for a very exciting trailer

The ability to get summoned by a boss into someone else's world. I never managed to get it working but it's such a cool idea.

True Turquoise · August 05, 2015, 09:57:00 AM

I would say less of BB as possible, but BB was literally the tester for Ds3.

I just want hard bosses, and less giants that are easy to kill. Gib another four kings boss.

Dark Souls 2's stats and ability to reset.

Bow combat to be better, or at least, improved.

I'd like more castle areas, specifically like how Dark Souls 2 did it.

Blight town 2.0 =^)

Summoning with passwords. That was cool.

Katanas and dex builds + Great magic weapon

Here, this should help you see how it plays, 16 minuets of pure Dks3 gameplay.

Interesting tidbits

Estus is back instead of dumbass blood vials and health gems

3 weapons equipped and loot able weapons are back (absent from bloodborne)

Enemies lose their magnetic weapons from dark souls 2 (turning in mid air and shit to make sure they hit you)

Back stabs on unstaggered targets

Duel weapons are a single slot (I like this)

It LOOKS like there are charged attacks like bloodborne but it may have just been a really slow heavy attack

That's all I noticed

I'd like it to go away. I know I'm bitter, but after Dark Souls 2, I don't have high hopes. And before anyone says "But Miyazaki-chan is working on it!" look at Bloodborne. Is anyone still talking about that?

Dark Souls 2 was a good game though, Bloodborne appealed to a niche portion of the player base as well so that's why it doesn't get much talk anymore.

Yeah they are...

On any site with a large ps4 user population bloodborne and bloodborne dlc comes up on a regular basis

Game wise, Dark Souls two wasn't bad, and I thought it played fairly well. But story/lore wise?
I consider DkS2 as an official fanfiction more than anything.

Verbatim · August 05, 2015, 01:09:38 PM

i presume the first two games ended

it would be nice if the third game ended, too

Plenty. It was a great game. Had great themes and art style. Biggest complaint I had about the game was that I had no reason to do another playthrough directly after I played through it the first time.

Release · August 05, 2015, 03:34:10 PM

Greatsword, Murakamo, skippable bosses, a map where you can fall easily to your death like in Iron Keep or Heide's Tower of Flame (it keeps you on your toes I think)

Dietrich Six · August 06, 2015, 09:08:01 AM

Super fat rolls, loved trudging around like a bowling ball with legs.

Sandtrap · August 06, 2015, 12:27:25 PM

Reasonably balanced magic pools.

As in,

Not over a million flavors of one shot spells and hexes.

And only one or two useful miracles and pyromancies.

Sandtrap · August 06, 2015, 12:28:03 PM

I was also a fan of infusing titanite into shields for damage reduction bonuses.

The whip for roleplay in pvp

Luciana · August 07, 2015, 06:11:46 PM

Skill resets

Back stab animation (I know it'll be instant like DS1)

and the front shield break. I felt that kept shield spamming idgits at bay.

Also PvP arena's like in DS2. They were implemented on the DLC of DS1, so hopefully we'll get that.

Red Eye orb for infinite invading as well

I'm really fucking iffy to shield break. I think in the entirety of the game no other move or tactic has been such a grief causing thing to me.

Not because every now and then I get shield broken, but just because of how fuckstupid random the move is.

Every time I've ever gone to bash a shield turtler, they've broken their guard as I did the move and attacked me because I left myself open by doing the move.

And, vice versa, whenever I went to attack somebody as they did a shield bash, their bash hit me and stunned me. You literally have to roll dodge all shield bashes regardless of whether or not you even have your shield up because the move stuns you either way if it connects.

And speaking of connects.

Shield bash is satan under a bad connection.

Exactly how I felt

that and lack of cosplay. Everyone looks the same.

I didn't like shield break.

And I rarely use shields
