One does, sort of. One of them will run over to a gate and then stand in front of it, stuck in place, and the gate stops working. They don't play out the whole animation, but the game acknowledges the AI trying to. Since they can't complete the first gate closing though, none of the others do.

>>156870251
enjoy playing a game with actual truckloads of weapon, armor, and moveset variety, anon.

And remember, even though Three Crowns is all present in SotFS, you should play the zones in the order they were released as DLC: Shulva, Brume Tower, and then Loyce.

DS2 is the only game in series where virtually all "unique" and boss weapons in base game (with the exception of MLGS) have generic animations even on special attacks, at best taken from another weapon classes. Even base DS1 had more unique moves and made a much better job at making weapons feel unique.

Also, have they made grinding ears a little bit easier? either by fixing the summoning or making the drop rate a little bit higher? I had the mimic hat, and the ring and it was just a fucking mess, I spent hours and hours and barely got to stage 1.

DS3's paired weapons alone have more unique moves than entire powerstancing system of DS2 thanks to unique rolling and running l1s. Base DS2 had nothing like homobeam or Falling Bolt, it had nothing like warcry movesets, it had nothing like stances or ds3's black knight weapons. I remember laughing like a madman when i understood that unique attack of spider fang was taken from whip moveset with low-res projectile texture slapped on top.

i hate character creators, i always end up spending hours in them, and even when im finally satisfied, 5 minutes into the game and i already want to create a new one. Is this autism? OCD? "Indecisiveness"?

>>156872261
I hate forgiving bosses.
I know making bosses forgiving is good design, but I don't like it personally.
I loved a lot of the harder DaS2 bosses, particularly the DLC ones, because their huge health pools made the fight take a while, and meant that you had to be consistent or else you'd simply run out of heals quick enough to use mid-combat. That also meant that you had to actually master their more difficult patterns so that you could avoid losing health (or straight up dying) whenever they were used.

One of my biggest gripes with 3 is how every difficult boss moveset is either attached to a boss that does low damage or has a very low health pool. I don't have to learn champion gundyr's moveset because just by attacking whenever I think I can attack, I kill him before I've even gone through half my estus. My mistakes don't matter because I can make 15 of them and he has the healthpool for 5.

>>156872261

I slowed them down to account for the fact that you move proportionately shorter distances when you run while shrunken down, so it gives off the classic "battle against a giant enemy" vibe.

>>156873454
well i feel sorry for you if you cant handle more than 1 enemy attacking you at once without cheesing even when the game gives you extra regen items, devs probably expected you all to "gitgud" by the end of ds1 but apparently that wasnt the case.

>The only changes in DS2's enemy placements happen on ng+.
Wrong. Per every NG+ cycle, a new skeleton gets put into the Majula mansion basement. If you wonder why there are bloodstains in the mansion, it's because of NG+7 skeleton horde probably.

>>156873623
Kek, who was even talking about enemy placements? The encounter design in DS2 is extremely shit, but not hard in any shape or for and not the main reason DS2's pve is liquid garbage. Trash level design with no depth and complexity of DS1 or 3 locations, extremely boring enemies and worst bosses in franchise are just a cherry on top as well.

>>156873593
Bad.
Dark Spells softcap their main scaling stat earlier (and thus gain less total damage from them) and compensate for this by scaling off a secondary stat. However, they ONLY scale off that secondary stat when paired with a casting tool specialized for them. The casting tools for dark spells are all bad, so even with this double-scaling, end up with significantly less spell buff than the optimal casting tool for that magic school.

So your options are to use a dark-based casting tool and end up as a sub-par mage who can only use dark spells (of which there are only two offensive ones) with a significantly higher stat investment than standard mages, or to just shoehorn your dark spell onto a standard caster build and have its damage be consequently lowered and thus the spell drastically underperform relative to your stat investment. Technically speaking, Dark Edge should be the strongest melee sorcery by far, but because of this shitty scaling system and the badness of the izalith catalyst, it ends up only doing about 350 damage a hit in pvp (with all the relevant boosts) instead of the 500 it ought to be dealing.

>pontiff scythe requires 12 FAI

>>156873623
DaS2 had extremely inconsistent PvE. Some areas like Forest / Lost Bastille / No Man's Wharf / Shrine of Ameme / Huntsman's Copse / Brightstone Cove Tseldora / Earthen Peak had well thought out mob placements and pretty solid level design, but then you had dumb shit like the 15 Syan knights in Undead Crypt or Harvest Valley with those big guys who couldn't even hit you if you took the intended route through the level.

That said, DaS2 put more effort into it's NG+ and had cool shit like a boss encounter appearing early on NG+ and some boss encounters changed on NG+. It's a shame they didn't do any of that for DS3 or invent new gimmicks to NG+.

My idea for NG+ would be that bosses would get one extra move or feature that would be triggered if the host had a phantom in the fight or was on a NG+ cycle to make the fight more challenging.

>>156874138
They seemed to have this idea that every magic-type WA would have an associated requirement but then abandoned it partway through.

I really liked that damaging Freja in that NG+ encounter carried over to the bossfight

Is DaS3 the only souls game where bosses finally became harder instead of easier when you summon in phantoms? People having 30% less hp really fucks with them, and they get incredibly close to 1-shot range, whereas bosses actually get meaningful amounts of hp to counteract the added damage

>>156874328
Did someone managed to kill Freja at this encounter ?

>>156874362
This is only true for some bosses but i saw Soul of Cinder absolutely facefucking some coop groups.

>>156874414
You can't
The game freezes her HP bar at a certain %, so even if you deal enough damage to instantkill her, it'll only reduce her HP bar to like 30% and she'll retreat.
If you use CE to kill her then it just resets the encounter once you cross the boss fog. There's no death animation for killing her at the special encounter.

The first Giant Fight with Yhorm that I did, I left him the same speed as usual, which makes him extremely easy to fight with increased mobility from also being giant. I did another fight where I doubled his speed to offset that, which I put a video of on Youtube.

It's really fun to mess around with. I almost have it setup in a way that I can release it as a usable public table, but there is a problem with easily making weapons scale up with player size. They have separate values from the player their size is based on and it behaves really inconsistently for making pointers. Right now, it would pretty much work as long as you just wanted to go around punching things, but any weapon you held would be the same size as always.

Are you sure? It's not mentioned on wikidot, and I remember doing a character specifically for LGK invasions at 1,3m SM and I was getting a fairly okay amount of invasions.

Playing DaS3 only really reminds you of just how many good and fun features DaS2 had. Its world is worse than DaS1's despite being larger, true, but at least it wasn't straight linear progression, and spells and covenants actually felt properly implemented.

As flawed as DaS2 is, the real shame is how badly DaS3 dropped the ball in terms of learning what to do right from it.

There's a "LockOn Bonus" that you can modify to increase the distance, which I should have, because that would have fixed the issue.

I'll never have as much fun with a Souls game as I had on my first Das2 playthrough: that comfy Majula, cutie Emerald Herald , Heide, that view from Sinner's Rise, Iron Keep, Drangleic Castle, that beautiful Shrine of Amana (those spellcasters completely ruin the experience), the Crypt, Dragon Aerie and Dragon Shrine, the amazing landscape of the DLCs.

It definitely had some great moments. People like to shit on the bosses and yes, there are quite some awful bosses, but there are also some really great ones like Fume Knight, Ivory King, Sinh, Alonne, Darklurker, Looking Glass Knight, Velstadt, even Smelter Demon is pretty neat. Aldia essentially becoming immortal and fighting you for shits and giggles is also kinda cool.

People who shit on DaS2 bosses are complete nostalgiafags.
They're about as good as your average DaS1 boss, but since the density is higher and there are more of them, it feels a bit more tedious so it's popular to call them "worse" and "easier" when in fact there can be drawn a very obvious line between old gen souls games (des, das1 and das2) and new gen souls games (BB, das3) bosses. Most from the latter category tend to be much more aggressive and with more elaborate attack patterns/complex movesets.

Smelter remains my favourite main game boss in any souls game. He had a great moveset, amazing BGm and just the right amount of tension in the fight while also just feeling satisfying as fuck to beat on.

Having a DoT aura to counteract the heal/time available through lifegems was honestly a genius design choice and made the fight feel way more intense.

Because the multiplayer interactions in 2 were really well-optimized and lightweight, so they could afford the resources to do something like that.

DaS3 is the opposite, the multiplayer code is poorly optimized, slow and cumbersome and handles resources poorly so something like tagging a half dozen bloodstains at a time would be too much for it. Even as-is, bloodstains bug out very frequently when you touch them and don't even display a ghost.

If you've hollowed significantly, it'll oneshot you.

Bed of Chaos is the worst boss.
You just run to left and slash the orb, do it the same on the right, fall onto root in the pit, slash your way through branches and kill the bug.
Seriously? There is zero difficulty as long as you are not a retard. You even keep the progress if you die to this fight.
This could have been a miniboss or at most 1st, 2nd boss of the game.

You don't even have to run, you can stand at the entrance and shoot the orbs with a bow.

Too bad its unlikely to return even in the Velka DLC since there's already a shitty magic rapier in the game.

>>156876736
The Bed of Chaos was a product of trying to push out a finished game a few months earlier than planned. The entirety of Lost Izalith was probably slapped together in two hours some late Tuesday night.

Even From has publicly admitted Bed of Chaos was a failed boss and they're sorry for how it turned out.

Smelter Demon has some pretty great stat balance, and he will absolutely fuck you if you cant dodge him. It doesnt help that I ALWAYS fight him with Lucatiel, but he is never not a challenge for me. Without Lucatiel, I'd now be missing a health sponge to take the heat off of me when shit hits the fan. Dude's tough, has some great sound assets, great animations and follow-through attack style, his mixups can get you killed, and his flame buff is actually devastating but counterable. You roll in a water pot, cast Flash Sweat, and put on the Flame Quartz ring and now you just have to contend with his massive physical damage and Wrath of Gods-esque explosions.
Not a bad boss for DaS2.

Why are WA tied to FP?

>>156876910
The way it was handled in DaS1 was LODBanks, I think. It's basically the same as camera controls in a way, where being in certain areas will tell the game to use a preset LODBank that says how far away to render things.

Miyazaki explained in an interview that he made Gwyn parryable because he wanted to be a boss that could be beaten via whatever strategy the player had used to get through the game, so dickass thieves could parry while big ass tanks could block him and so on. He just didn't consider how overpowered parrying was or how much of a joke it would make the boss.

>>156877165
Is FROM making new Ips outside of bamco?

Hollowing is a choice.

Players should always have a set default health anyway, changing it for no reason doesn't add much to the gameplay.
It's a shame DaS is the only out of 5 games to do it

>>156877445
The first half of Iron Keep is always a pain in the ass in one way or another, unless I can just 1 shot all the knights from a distance with dark magic or lightning spears. But its a pain in the ass that is navigable and beatable with some thought put into it, and it actually feels rewarding and relieving to finally get past. The only thing I would say is truly bullshit is the mile-wide aggro range of knights you didnt even know were there before they started running you down at sanic speeds. My very first playthrough that I got there, I died so many times before Smelter Demon that all the knights just stopped respawning, making it far easier for me to actually progress. And then it doesnt help Smelter Demon killed me a dozen times too.
Even if most deaths are from bullshit tracking arrows, or falling into lava, or getting gangbanged by sanic knights, at least the difficulty wasnt from input reading or estus punishing. Maybe DaS3 needs more pits. Past a certain point, enemies just arent threatening on their own to make things a challenge anymore. Pits equalize things.

>>156877452
Couldn't they just rebalance him via patch?

There was confirmation a little while back that they're working on a new Armored Core, which lines up with a previous statement from Miyazaki where he said they were working on something new and on a "new spin" on one of their older franchises. They supposedly also have as many as three games contracted with Sony, supposedly one of which might be a PSVR title, so some take the "new spin" comment as implying they might be making King's Field VR.

>>156877772
On my first fight with Centipede he clipped through the wall, crawled to the roof and fell below the map killing himself.

>>156877498
Bamco was just their publisher in the rest of the world, but From is self-published in Japan. Part of why they could take their time with Demon's Souls and release such a well-polished product right out the gates.

Bloodborne was published without Namco at all, and Sony loaned them dev resources to get it done too. The initial release of BB was surprisingly stable compared to the clusterfuck that was DaS1 and 2 on release.

From's only games with Namco were DaS1, 2, and 3, and the series is officially over now so they probably just had a typical three game contract with them. Unless Fromsoft takes up another contract with them, they'll probably use another publisher like Atlus who treated them well in the past.

Yeah, but it's a choice that comes with benefits.

I actually like BoC. It feels like it's truly out of control. From should have just taught the player how to deal with a puzzle boss. I like the Butt Demon bosses as well, for some reason they were one of the biggest challenges on my first playthrough. Centipede Demon may be my least favourite boss because of the camera and the arena.

Loved this about the Mytha fight. Shit gets pretty intense if you don't cheese everything.

>>156878383
Are you seriously comparing Yuria to the likes of Yurt or the beggar? You don't even fucking lose anything worthwhile with Yoel's death.

>>156877760
If Namco is smart the only game related shit they'll do without From is a remaster of DS1
But Namco is fucking stupid, so maybe we'll see a DS4 announcement within a year

Anon. Are you saying you don't know about the windmill?

I mean you're not wrong and all your other points are valid but I liked him and then he was dead

>No downside to killing NPCs (you can always use their ashes)
You do at least lose out on quest stuff if you kill an NPC when you first meet them. Killing Anri on sight will lock out the Evil Eye Ring, a couple gestures, and all of Yuria's stuff, for instance, and killing Greirat will prevent you from getting his expanded inventory at the end of the game.

>>156878383
Sure did, Yoel dies naturally as soon as you set foot into the catacombs or if you get 5 levels from him. Nothing kills him, he just finally keels over like he wanted in the first place.

>>156878608
I liked thew fact that DaS2 gave you a glut of healing resources, but also designed the game around pressuring those resources. Fights like that where having a lifegem constantly on the go didn't give you unlimited HP were really great.

It feels like DaS3 gave you too many estus and din't have enough forms of attrition to really pressure your estus. It's almost hard to run out.

>>156878704
I didn't know about it on my first playthrough either and thought popping lifegems during the fight was pretty neat.

>>156878383
No, he fulfilled his quest and earned a death, Yuria didn't kill him.

>summoning doesn't cut your souls gained
fucking hell, never knew about that, assumed it's the case in DaS3 because it worked like this in 1 and 2
>No downside to killing NPCs (you can always use their ashes)
you can't give them spell tomes anymore if you kill them, that's quite a downside
still, ashes eliminate most of the downsides

What's the highest crit multiplier on a weapon in DkS1, and which weapon is it?

>>156878387
It's a deal with the devil thing. Hollows are muslims and should be purged, siding with them makes you an ugly asshole

>>156878267
Technically speaking, a +1% increase can be as much as a double drop rate boost for items with a 1% or lower drop rate. Luck's main use is as an offensive stat though, such as with Anri's Straight Sword and it's fuckmassive Luck scaling, the Hollow infusion giving Luck damage scaling to your weapons, or the Man-Grub Staff giving Luck scaling to your sorceries.

All but a few weapons are better as Refined than Hollow, though, and the Man-Grub Staff is shitty shit even for shit. So in practice, it's more for Anri's Sword and the few weapons that like Hollow.

>>156878770
Yeah I agree about the estus thing. Even on NG+ or so you never really run out.

This is why I unironically prefer casters for PvE, and dark casters so the enemies don't die as fast. Needing to juggle estus and ashtus makes the gameplay feel better.

Weapon arts should've been equippable to attunement slots, like spells. Make 3-5 weapon arts per weapon class, twinkly and boss weapons with a unique skill are the only ones who can use it even if you can equip the skill without the weapon, and give weapon arts str/dex requirements to use them. This way, melee builds actually have a reason to invest in Attunement and use ashen estus instead of just running around with 6 Att and a simple caestus.

I want a grizzled old war vet who'll teach you weapon arts and fancy tricks for your gear, like a hilt bash for straight swords to give them a strike damage attack or kidney stab for daggers to slow opponents movement speed.

The entirety of DS3 seems to be littered with half-baked broken mechanics like this. Shit like Sin, Frostbite, the entire Darkmoon covenant, the completely missing NG+, magic in general, more than half of the NPC quests, or fucking poise.

The number of dead-end design decisions is pretty inexcusable truthfully. Its the kind of shit that I would expect from some early access indie trash game. I don't understand how even after three fucking games they still can't seem to get the time to finish a single one of them.

>>156879030
You don't even know how item discovery works. it's a multiplicative thing. Your drop rate will be base chance X item discovery/100. This means a luck level adds 0,01 percent to your odds, making 99 luck worse than just a symbol of avarice.
Anri's used to be about BBS tier, but since the nerf you might as well use any other SS, it's not like your playstyle changes anyway. The status increase is also minimal and hollow weapons are actually inferior to refined with almost no exception (almost every comparison assumes more points invested into the hollow build for some reason to justify it) and the few cases where you they're better the AR increase is so small it might not be there.

Luck is awful

After champ flattens you with his bullshit combos, why is it that some times you just cannot roll back up before his ground stab attack?

It's fucking BS. You never have enough hp left to tank that

This is true of every souls game.
More than half the content constituting the game is unfinished and left abandoned, dangling, or hastily repurposed to desperately fill a gap in progression that it clearly doesn't fit.
