*blocks your path*

Bloodborne > Dark Souls > Demon's Souls > Dark Souls 3 > Shit > Dark Souls 2

This is fact.

Isn't there a Bloodborne PC petition you should be signing?

>>385656685
nope

>Demon Souls with an 89 because reviewers wanted to seem unique for giving a niche game a higher score
>Dark Souls scored lower because sequels to niche games typically score lower.
>Dark Souls 2 scored highly because of bandwagon, and they don't want to anger fans.
>Dark Souls 3 scored lower because it was safe to score it lower because the community doesn't see DaS2 as a great game.

It's easy to see why reviewers score games a particular way. It has nothing to do with the games themselves being bad or good, but it's all about reviewers trying to stay on the community's good side. Case in point, FFXIII and XIII-2.

Reviewers gave XIII high scores, but the fans bashed the game for being to linear and uninteresting. As soon as XIII-2 came out, reviews for that game were less than stellar, and they typically matched the community's viewpoint of XIII even though XIII-2 was less restrictive than XIII and had better gameplay.

Reviewers are either paid to give games high scores, or they write their reviews as to avoid pissing off the community. When they do go out of their way to piss off fans, it's simply for attention (see Jimquisition.)

dark souls 3 was actually rated the same as demons souls on every platform except xb1

>>385652002
The scores of Sony exclusives are always inflated. We've always know this. This is not news.

>>385652002
demons souls rating judged as 89 after 81, count em, 81 reviews. Yall know how math works right?

Neither is Demon Souls.
Take your pick, you either include all 5, or you limit it to the trilogy with the shared universe.

>Bloodborne
>Made by the same game developer
>created by the A team
>contains mechanics identical to souls games
>philosophically identical game
>developed to 'feel' as close to souls as possible, down to the tooltips
>not a 'souls' game because it doesn't have 'souls' in the title

Just buy a ps4 and play it already, it's worth it.

You know Dark Souls is only named Dark Souls because their first 3 options weren't gonna work.
Dark Race
>too racist
Dark Lord
>couldn't get the rights
Dark Ring
>slang for asshole in the UK

So they just said fuck it and gave up and named it Dark Souls.

>>385656685
The only bloodborne petition ever made didn't even reach its goal due to lack of interest. The more you know.

>tfw bought into the le dark souls 2 sucked meme
>see reviewers give it the best score
>buy it
>turns out to be the best by far
