Was Dark Souls the first real video game?

what in the fuck does that even mean?
Also Demon Souls is the same fucking thing. Why am I getting so mad?

yes
But did dark souls invent knights?

>>377181932
Yes. But did Dark Souls invent Europe?

>>377181927
What I mean is, can anything made before Dark Souls be properly called a 'video game'? DS was likely the first video game to offer actual difficulty and high challenge in video gaming combined with a rich and intricate storyline - most 'games' before DS were one or the other.

I dunno, but I would definitely say that Dark Souls was the Dark Souls of Dark Souls

Is this your first time playing? If so, i can forgive you for not using a lighting claymore

>>377182672
why do you have a bow

>>377183009
Why wouldn't you? You can range pull single targets.

>>377183032
you don't need to and you can also do that with pyro

No, just the first good video game in a long while.
One that I can recommend to people who haven't played it 10-15 years from now.

>what is the CRPG genre

>>377181828
In 10-15 years this will be the game that defined the medium as a whole. So basically, yes.

>Dragon's Dogma is the Dark Souls of fantasy RPGs. Every time.

If you do not count mechanical games that draw an image onscreen, the Fairchild Channel F arrived with the first true video game.

I love dark souls, but this meme has to end before someone gets hurt.

>>377181828
I like dark souls, its one of my favorite games ever but some of these threads are getting autistic to the point where I can't tell if the OP is serious, baiting or just retarded

>>377182154
i see what you're getting at but...
no fuck off

>>377181992
Yes, but did dark souls invent violence as a means to an end?

>>377183370
If that's the case then I might as well kill myself now.

>>377183091
>>377183009
Wow, you're a retard.

>>377186558
not an argument

>>377181828
If you were born in late 2011 yes
