Can we all agree that DaS3 had the best soundtrack out of any

Bloodborne was better.

>>389451692
Ds3 was just an enjoyable PvE experience
If i want to play pve i go bloodborne.
If i want to play pvp i go ds2

Generic loud orchestra with chanting.
The only memorable song is Midir's theme.

bloodborne has higher production values and uses live recordings, they also outdid themselves with the dlc music

that being said, I find a lot of bloodborne's base game music to be dull, so I can see where you are coming from

pontiff sulyvahn, oceiros, gundyr, the twin princes, nameless king, the dancer, yhorm, gael and midir had some really neat tracks

>>389452025

This.
BB have way more memorable chorus...DS3 just looks too repetitive

Those two soundtracks completely shit on DS3.

As far as OST goes:
BB > DS3 > DS1 > DeS > DS2.
DS2's ost somehow manages to be remarkably uninteresting and lacking a clear theme, which is hilarious given that it was done mostly by the same people.
DS3 ost's only major flaw is that they forced Kitamura to do too much of cacophonous orchestral themes similar to Lady Maria's theme in BB, probably the worst piece of TOH ost, and that's with Kitamura being able to create majestic melodies like the theme of Gravetenders which is among the absolute top tiers in series.

>>389454090
>DS2's ost somehow manages to be remarkably uninteresting and lacking a clear theme
So you're saying it matches the level design?

>>389451692
Eh, I found Ds1 and Bloodborne's soundtracks to be better. Ds3 had some good ones though like Abyss Watchers and Gundyrs theme

>>389451692
When reading the OP my immediate first thought was Ornstein & Smough's theme. But yeah, DaS3 has some great tracks too.

>>389454259
It matches an overall quality of the game, i'd say.
There's only a few good pieces of OST and they are for DLC bosses

Kill yourself

DS1 has some really uninteresting filler compositions, DS3's ost manages to stay thematic from the beginning and up to SoC/Gael.
>>389454616
More like liquid shit, enduring that chime noise is like suffering from extreme form of tinnitus.

DS >>>> BB > DeS > DS2 > DS3

diablo 2 has a much better soundtrack than any souls game

>>389454683
God bless this mess

>>389454660
Honestly of all DS2 compositions i can only remember skeleton lords, nashandra, sinh, alonne and ivory king, and even then they aren't really that good compared to high-tier tracks of other soulsborne games.

I'm really sorry for your shit taste, anon. But there's no need to be so violent.

>>389455021
I agree, but you do have to give Ds2 some credit for the handful of good tracks. Nothing compares to these though.

Jesus Christ, no.

It doesn't even have the best soundtrack in its series, turdburglar.

Nier has the best soundtrack out of any video game, this is a fact.

>>389451692

Play more video games.

>>389456306
Spoken like a true nu-gamer

>>389456449
That doesn't make any sense.

How has nobody mentioned Vordt's theme?
One of the best in the series desu

>>389457176
It's a real shame that he's too weak to capitalize on amazing second phase theme.
Should've been twice as hardy and his whole body being a hitbox like oceiros.

>>389457419
True, the only time I really got to enjoy it was my first playthrough

>>389453424
Boss fights in DS3 blow BB out of the water musically

BB otherwise though has the better soundtrack

>>389457419
>whole body being a hitbox like oceiros.
oh god please no
that fight always irritated me because of those stupid instant lunging attacks

>>389451692
If you like ear blasting dumb repetitive soulless generic chorus with no silence or musicality at all, then DS3 is the game for you.

That might be true but, personally, there is no ds3 boss theme that matches the first hunter ost or the holy blade ost.

Sorry anon, you are objectively wrong.
Also Dark souls 3 is just a shitty rehash of dark souls 1 mixed with bloodborne speed with the worst pvp of the series, prove me wrong.

>>389459540
>Sequel is a shitty rehash
How about you make some sense first

>>389459540

>Pony shit

>>389459524
Slave Knight gael shits on both of then

Final Fantasy Crystal Chronicles has the best soundtrack ever and you'll never convince me otherwise.

>>389459540
>rehash
>makes significant changes to combat speed changing the flow of combat entirely
why are you like this

>>389451692
>only ppl who stuck in the 90's disco era like that shit.

Anyway the real answer is probably Earthbound or Katamari Damacy. Or maybe one of the Mario Galaxy games. This question is retarded since claiming that just one is the best is nearly impossible.

>>389459661
It uses exact animations from dark souls 1, has characters from dark souls 1, reuses enemies and bosses from dark souls 1 with different paintjobs, ripoffs from BB along with most of it's aesthetics, same game, different skin.
>>389459940
>doesn't know p&s

>>389460017
>shitty rehash of dark souls 1 mixed with bloodborne speed
You could read all of it before talking, it's just 2 games mashed together trying to be good, when it isn't.

>>389451692
No. I can only handle so much loud screeching amateur females attempting gothic choir music.

Also the menu theme and the hub are the worst in the series by far.

>>389460138
It's a fucking direct sequel. Of course it might have some of the characters, and enemies. The fuck bosses are reused outside of maybe stray demon? You're grasping at straws here.

DS3 is everything that DS2 should of been. Maybe a bit more open, but other then that, good enough.

It's not Bloodborne speed either, in the middle between DS1 and BB. A sequel having reused animations? Call the fucking presses, what do you want them to do, reanimate every combat animation even though they're already great? Or should we take the DS2 approach and mocap everything, making a game that feels incredibly sluggish to play? A sequel has NPCs from a past title, it's almost like they're trying to appeal to fans of the first title in the final game in the series.
As for bosses, what reused bosses apart from the stray demon?

>>389451692
What about Quake, Ace Combat or any rhythms games (Rocksmith/Guitaroo Man) ?

>>389460301
DaS3 is such a half-assed and uninspired sequel.
>Kill four nobodies and link the fire for us Chosen Unkindled Ashen Dead One!
>Oh here, have Andre, and look it's "HMMMM man" from DaS1 remember him!? Remember Gwyndolin, he's back with a shit version of Anno Londo!
DaS3 wasn't a sequel, it was blatant nostalgia pandering for a game that's not even a decade old.

>>389451692
It had alot of greats. Soul of Cinder and epilogue were particularly good because of nostalgia and because the latter utilized the other themes in other scores.

>>389460673
Even the stray demon plays nothing like he did in first game.
If we fought this version in DS1 he would utterly fuck up people.

>>389460942
Andre was meh I'll give you that but the rest of it is your autism.

The gods in anor londo were in control, now they've been overthrown. Of course you'll fucking see them

Queen of Lothric theme?

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CtHDsw4FioQ&list=PLiVSF2AAhkqefxaIjAUWmNOuZf-i3AoWD&index=27

>>389461152
You can say that about almost all DS3 bosses, DS1 bosses are so simple anyone could figure out how to beat them without too much trouble. Ridiculously slow, little health, deal little damage and stupid AI. It was hard when it was your first Souls title, but going back to it now, it's not remotely a challenge.

>>389451692
DaS 1 had the best ost in the series nigger.
And I would say one of the elder scrolls has the best soundtrack in videogames, or maybe Red Orchestra 2/Rising Storm, as the Japs and Ruskies had godly music.

>>389461167
>Let's make a new character guys!
>It's Dark Sun Gwyn!
>What do we do with that blob in the expensive cinematic we commissioned?
>Fuse them I don't give a fuck.
>Siegward is a literal rehash of Siegmeyer for no reason.other than to have a needless throwback to a character that didn't suck from DaS1.
Sequels tend to build on the previous entry or try to do their own thing using what's established. They don't take shit and reuse it almost beat for beat. Even the main plot points in DaS3 are pointlessly similar, but without all the interesting backstory.

>>389451692
rime and journey are better

>>389451692
DaS3's soundtrack was fucking terrible.

>>389459959
What's it like being so wrong on a daily basis?

>>389461567
>go to anor londo
>it's in ruins
>infested with deep
>find the boss
>it is halfway through devouring a god from the previous game and has absorbed some of its powers
I remember when this happened beat for beat in DS1 yes.

>>389461567
Sounds to me you just have a bias.

>>389463184
>Go to Anor Londo.
>Look, it's awesome! Awe-inspiring!
>Kill Gwyn.
>Nah he's actually alive, but also dead because this blob ate him!
>We brought him back for no reason other than to have his corpse be the upper half of this bloated mass, because we realized the design was shit at the last second and we needed something to make it interesting.
10/10 game.

>>389463307
I'm biased against lazy and uninspired sequels that exploit the same fucking shit we've already seen before for absolutely no apparent reason, so I guess you got me there.

>>389463790
Probably because it shows them being overthrown and it's fucked up? like alot of dark souls zones?

>>389451692
>Can we all agree that Undertale had the best soundtrack out of any videogame

FTFY

>>389463927
It has no impact if they were already overthrown. It's just lazy pandering. So instead of an interesting new story, we got:
>Look it's Aldrich.
>He ate a boss from the first game!
>Woooooow, isn't that cooooool?

>>389465338
DaS1's music was much better at conveying atmosphere than DaS3's loud orchestrated music. I actually turned off the music during my second playthrough of DaS3 because some songs were just so distracting.

BB's fucking tutorial boss has a better theme than anyone in DaS3

In this thread we list things Dark Souls 2 did that were far better than Dark Souls 3. I'll start:

>No bonfire and no death challenge where you can beat the game without resting at a bonfire or dying to gain a reward and bragging rights

>Non-linear first half of the game allows you to rush straight to the areas of the game that contain the items for your build

>Chugging Estus immobilizes you, and the heal isn't instantaneous meaning trying to chug while someone is sticking close to you will result in death

>Stamina regeneration is tied to weight, so a character at 10% burden will recover their bar faster than a character at 70% burden, giving an advantage and a reason to make a low burden character

>Poise exists and armor provides relevant, but not overpowering damage reduction, giving an advantage and a reason to make a high burden character

>Phantoms and Dark Spirits cannot chug estus, spirits can only heal via spell useage which is slow. This makes fighting outnumbered even without mob assistance possible since any damage you do sticks

>Can only perform four rolls before running out of stamina

>Can only perform 5 attacks of a rapier or straight sword before running out of stamina

>Parrying has longer recovery frames and consumes more stamina, making parry fishing riskier and makes parrying require higher skill

>Power stance allowing for unique combinations of dual wielding and unlocking an alternative moveset for weapons

>Being able to use the full moveset of a weapon in your off-hand including running, rolling, backstepping, etc. attacks rather than just being able to do a basic R1 swing and blocking with the weapon as it is in Ds3 (lmao who would ever want to weapon block)

>Bell Tower covenant providing two unique optional areas to PvP for Titanite Chunks, Slabs, and Twinkling, making farming for upgrades fun

>Bonfire ascetics to replay bosses you like and or gain items from NG+ and beyond without grinding through the whole game again

>>389451692
Souls games have pretty generic soundtracks. They're okay but pale in comparison to shit like Nier, SMT, Ace Attorney, Elder Scrolls, Zelda, Megaman, etc. You should play more games.

>>389451692

It's generic and derivative as fuck.

I will never get the praise for the souls soundtracks, outside a few standout tracks like majula theme. They're nothing special.

Also fuck you all the doom games have fantastic music outside 3. Even if it's copyright infringing hell, it's still great.

>>389467420
Gascan isn't the tutorial boss, it was irrelevant to my post. Fantastic theme though
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kA614N3IHD4

>>389451692
Only liked Abyss Watchers and Twin Prince, the former was highly reminiscent of Artorias' theme so it invoked a lot of novelty

>>389451692
>muh orchestra
You don't have to compose anything decent for it to sound like something competent. At least with Demon's Souls the composers actually had to try to actually make good songs.

>>389467524
For some reason people make it seem like the negatives of DaS2 are absolutely massive with soul memory and adaptability while always ignoring how many improvements it featured that far outweighed the cons. Dark Souls 2 is still the best game in the series while 3 is very much just dark souls 1.5.

DS3 was a pretty fun game. It's definitely my least favorite of the series, but that's not saying much; I love them all.
Holy shit. That menu music is godlike.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=stWae6r7Blw

>>389467524

IMO it has the best customization and build variety of the entire series. Lots of different builds work, and they actually play differently. I feel like in the other two, builds might have different armor and weapons but ultimately play almost the same.

>Replay DS3
>Enter Firelink
>Just stand there

It's old and gone now. You will never feel the awe and wonder again. Never.

It's over. Finished. Kaputt. Fin.

>>389463790
I felt that they could have done more with Anor Londo than just the cathedral

Fact.

>>389467524
2 has so many great improvements, but I just don't find the world or the main game's bosses that interesting
I always start it up, have fun power stancing even shit weapons, fighting the pursuer when he drops on that platform, etc.
But by the time I make it to the Bastille or the lost woods I'm just bored out of my mind.
