It's nice to hear, even though 3 is the weakest of the series.
I think there's a typo in your post. 2 != 3

No, is much better layered in DS3 and more interesting and varied.
Elem Loyce was a poor man's 1-1, with stupid backtracking. Tbh that puts it over most DS2 but not over most DS3 levels.

At the very least they will have to start to complain about new things, because most of the common complaints people have about 2 get even worse in 3 ¯\_(ツ_/¯
No fatigue for me so give me more FROM.
So happy for FROM
Miyazaki is smart and Im sure he has enough influence and clout to not be pressured into making another Dark Souls unless he wanted to do it
Plus doesnt From own the IP?
Nintendo hasn't given a shit about Metroid since Super flopped in Japan, and has been mis-managed even before that.
If it weren't for their FUCKING lack of vision they'd have noticed the DEPTH of the fanbase (if not necessarily the breadth) for core Super Metroid and they'd have catered to it and made it grow.
You can't turn a tiny spark into a roaring flame if you keep fucking putting it out, dumbass Nintendo.
Demon's Souls had a devoted fanbase but the game hadn't exactly exploded into a massive commercial success or become a living room name around the time it came out. If FromSoft were like Nintendo they'd have started wondering how to change it into something that'd sell more. We'd have Demon's Souls Hunters, a multiplayer battle game. Or whatever.
But FromSoft did the smart thing and stayed faithful to their core fans and kept to their vision and GREW SOMETHING. They LED.
FromSoft is in the 2010s what Nintendo was in the 80's and early 90's.
Does FROM own the IP? I thought Namco owned it
EXACTLY
Could not agree more. Its something we desperately need from Developers going forward
Vision and faith in the creative ideas you put forward. Taking Leadership and building on committed fans
For some reason we keep going in circles in the industry because the money and risk is so huge
1. I'm sorry, but I don't want to bog down this thread in a massive DS argument, where we line by line break down the differences between those two levels, but I just can't agree with this at all.Maneaters v whatever the fuck that was in DS3 pretty much makes most of the argument for itself, honestly.
2. "a poor man's 1-1" could describe at least half the levels in DS3 if not more. please elaborate.
No, he's right. DS3 excels only in being the least offensive entry in the series. It doesn't really do anything extraordinarily well, neither does it do anything terribly wrong. It just kinda straddles the line between the two games. It's pretty much just above average-to-good all the way through. No really super inventive ideas, nothing really excells design wise, it's just....okay in every way.
EDIT: I will amend to say I did like the music here more than other games, other than Souls of Fire from DS1.

There is no doubt in my mind that FromSoft is the most important and significant development studio in the world right now.
PLease explain this.
Dark Souls 1 is my GOAT and I don't believe this at all. In what way are FROM the most important developer in the world right now?

Space Souls next please.
Space Souls next please.
I'll stake my claim right here that I always thought it was the best Souls game. And I have hundreds of frustrated posts in "DS2 sucks" threads to prove it

I'm playing through DS1 and DS2 in parallel and this makes me happy to hear. So many members talk about DS2 as if it wasn't an actual Souls games, not worth playing, B-Team Scamco cash grab etc.
Holy shiiiiit at those PC numbers.
That is just deranged.
The hitboxes are perfect. They removed the ADP bullshit. While the overall world design feels similar to DS2 at least the areas themselves are far more sprawling than anything in DS2 vanilla. There's nearly no areas that are horribly ugly to look at unlike half of DS2.
I don't see how anyone could claim DS2 is better than 3. Realistically the dialogue should be how far below the rest of the series DS2 hangs, not where it hangs among the other games.
Could not agree any less, unfortunately.The hitboxes are perfect.

Scanning...Deserves every single unit sold.
I have platinumed Demon's, Dark 1 and Dark 2 and Dark 3 so far (30 hours in, 6 bosses down) is *this* close to being THE perfect Souls game IMO.
It destroys the trash that is known as Dark Souls 2 (eat me, Morrigan Stark) and is *almost* on the level of Demon's. Absolutely better than Dark 1, there I said it purists.
I love Dark 3 and want it to never end. The level design itself is simply out of reach for other games... and Dark 2. The Cathedral is Tower of Latria-tier for Christ's sake. No more of this Tseldora, Iron Keep etc. garbage!
I have dreamed of a new Souls game like this for the last 4 years.
DARK SOULS 3 DOES NOT DISAPPOINT

They're really good at makin this one game over and over againPLease explain this.

It's awesome for them, but I do really hope for no dark souls 4. As much as 3 was enjoyable, it said barely anything new and you can feel the annualization of the franchise and the pandering, with almost every single zone being a retread of another one from a previous game, questionable design decisions borrowed from BB for Souls, and the plot and lore barely going anywhere except for variation. I'd rather they end on a high note rather than running this into the ground just to pander to fans
Which enemies you feel have hit you with bs? I'm currently in Irithyll Dungeon so maybe the bullshit comes later on but so far it's been complete bliss.
