welcome to 2012?

>i bought the game
>how is this allowed?

you literally allowed it

No real use in discussing how shit it is. Its a western attempt at Souls series without understanding what makes them good. Almost everyone forgot about this game.

It's shovelware, made by a shovelware dev. Don't give these Polish trash the satisfaction of even talking about their worthless shit game.

No people say this is a souls game for making slight variations to the combat (think Shadow of Mordor is to Assassins Creed) and then generally being shit.

No but the clunky combat controls, sponge bosses, atmosphere and shit gameplay make it a souls type game.

It wouldn't even be a horrible game if it just didn't try so desperately to emulate souls without really understand what made souls good.

got banned from a twitch stream for saying this was a shit souls rip off while the streamer was playing it

people actually tried to defend this game when it came out lmao

>another thread shitting aimlessly at LotF

Yes, we get it, it isn't a carbon copy of a Souls game and it's pretty shit
But people still don't get that this is at least a step in the right direction. Someone else, not Fromsoft, actually attempting the Souls formula for once, and all things considered did a decent job
I've personally completed the game with all the 3 classes, but that's where the content ended, it had nothing else to offer.
They should have wasted less time on all the fancy armor and world details to make the maps themselves longer and more intricate, maybe come up with less humanoid bosses

I hope to see more "souls" games from different companies to see what they can offer.
That Samurai Souls game is looking decent, and the 2D ones also seem to be promising

>>323314312
>but to say it doesnt have the above is a bold fucking face lie
Hyperbole =! truth.

Combat hasn't really been "clunky" since Demon's. I don't think there has ever been a boss that's a sponge, outside maybe that dragon in DS2. And if you're claiming souls has "shit gameplay" You're clearly lying out of your ass, have never played the game, or are just a cheap troll, all of which disqualify you from any right to discuss the game.

>>323314489
>Yes, we get it, it isn't a carbon copy of a Souls game and it's pretty shit

Its really not, the problem isn't that its not a copy of souls, the problem is that it tries to be but fails in every aspect, if the game tried to do its own thing it could have been a decent game, but the devs so desperately tried to copy souls and clearly they've never played a souls game.

>>323314489
>That Samurai Souls game is looking decent
This too, what is this shit? I've seen that video, where exactly did you niggers draw that its a souls-like game? because items float in light orbs? You're all a bunch of god damn retards.

>>323313627
lol trueee

>>323314662
fuck off with your "right" to point out shit in a game.

Try to jump a ledge in souls. Oh, its hard? like because its a difficult jump? There's distractions? Enemies?

oh no its because the CONTROLS SUCK DICK

thats bad gameplay and you can go fuck yourself.
Im not saying the souls games are bad and terrible games. they just have bad and terrible inputs and gameplay but make up for it because that was their intent and the rest of the game is balanced around that.

Its shit to jump, so theres only one jump and its for a bonus? thats ok, actually, thats really good. doesnt make jumping ANY LESS SHIT THOUGH

btw lords of the fallen has some forced jumping parts with the same shitty jumping controls, thats the difference between both of them.

Of course, people will still shit all over it because MUH SOULZ GAMEPLAY, but I am personally glad to see other people expanding on this

Salt and Sanctuary is looking like a decent 2D "souls-like" from what I've seen too

>>323310938

First of all, are you sure you're follwing the conversation? me not having an example of a good "souls-like" game doesn't nullify the fact this game is shit.
Do you even know what you're arguing any more?

All I'm saying is that Lords of the Fallen was a decent start to the souls-like genre from other companies, that's it

People can hate it all they want, but there isn't anything else apart from the actual Souls games like it, which is why I think it's a good first step
A clumsy, slow and unbalanced step, but a step nonetheless

>>323316351

>Only souls thing in lords of the fallen was stamina bar

When I played, I went with a 2H weapon build like I normally do when given the opportunity and I felt as if I was slower than nearly all other enemies, especially bosses, plus being hit at all during a swing ALWAYS interrupted me and it made the game entirely too needlessly difficult, feeling cumbersome.

Anybody else have this experience?

>>323317613
>I was slower than nearly all other enemies
Which you were, but dealt like 1/3 or half of their HP in damage with a single running R2, if not outright killing the smaller ones

> being hit at all during a swing ALWAYS interrupted me
Armour has the most impact in Lords than any Souls game. It decreases damage and give tons of poise, especially if you level Strength. You are actually supposed to tank hits if you are going for a heavy strength build, or block them with your greatshield

>>323317920
Huh. I don't remember what my armor was like, haven't played in over six months. Maybe maybe maybe I'll boot it up sometime and see if I can change anything around. I don't use shields.
I had finally beaten the second major boss after over an hour or two of repetition then a little after that, I went into one of those 'secret' areas but the sheer amount of mobs fucked me too hard and I had no way to heal.

>>323317581
Yes that's what I said, good job, you can read :)

>>323317534
>I bet you think
You just lost the bet, can you kill yourself now?

>>323318189
It's a shitton more methodical than even DaS1, so take it slow, especially if you're going with a heavy two-handed weapon
The go-to combo for those is usually a running R2 into an R1, typically you should be able to kill almost anything with that

You should also be able to block with simply the weapon.
Just remember to wear the best possible armor if you're going without a shield and with a heavy weapon

>>323318460
Which is wrong.

Or you simply haven't played the game, which is fine then
Or just going through this thread you'll see that people complain that it's trying too hard to be Dark Souls than anything else

Anyone who played at least 10 minutes of the game will tell you that it has basically all of the DaS features in it, so I can only assume that you haven't

No sane person can say unironically that the only thing LotF has from DaS is the stamina bar

>>323319223

About what exactly?

You honestly can't play a heavy weapon in this game the same as in Dark Souls, it's pretty clear, and considering how terrible the rolls are you mostly just have to keep out of range and look for openings, while in Dark Souls you can always i-frame through any attack and stay on the offensive

>>323319750
Clunky combat mechanics with horrible imput lag are a lot of things, they're not methodical.

Its not about how you play it compared to souls, its about how you play it compared to any fucking game, when you push a button, and character begins reacting to that button push a second later, it doesn't matter if the hitboxes are in order or if it requires forethough, input lag is input lag. That's like calling piss a refreshing beverage because in some cultures its acceptable to drink it.

>>323319750
>you can always i-frame through any attack
dat hyperbole

Have you even played souls before?

>>323320109
I have no idea if it has input lag or not, but I personally did not feel it, or got used to it or something

If not methodical I don't know what to call it, but that's how I played it, especially with dual daggers where you could unleash a whole combo during a single opening with enough time to roll away

>>323320242
Yes you can't roll through multi-hit attacks, but rolling away usually works

Which attack on which enemy exactly are you having trouble with i-frames?

You only hate it because it's not made by gooks.

>>323320958

Not him but are you suggesting that rolling does not include i-frames? That was why rolling was the ideal in Demon's Souls not that I expect much of the current /v/ populace to have played DeS.

Fuck you, LotF was an ok game. Got it on sale and I don't regret the 15 hours it took me to finish it. Sure it was no masterpiece but it was still a very enjoyable experience.

No other fanbase does this btw. Even the moba crowd accepts competition. Soulfags trully are the worst.

>>323321201
That was a genuine question, but alright, I can stoop to your level I guess

>>323322549

>>323322214
Alright, I will try then

As your initial complain was towards my phrase about being able to i-frame through any attack. I did clarify that multi-hit attacks are not included since they are very obviously designed to bypass this

Can you please give me an example, or an enemy, or maybe a scenario of an attack by an enemy in Dark Souls which cannot be i-framed?

Oh and try avoiding the unique scenarios like Kalameet's nose swipe that drags you along, which honestly does not apply in this case
