I used to utterly fucking despise this game. It was only recently that I discovered how soulful it is.

It's just a really bad version of DaS1, but a bad version of DaS1 is still infinitely better than the shitty action game DaS3 is. At least 2 is still an RPG.

None of the souls games are RPGs.

>None of the sousl games are RPGs
okay then brainlet, what are they?
Do not say "Soulsborne"
Do not say "Action RPG" as if that disqualifies it from being an RPG
Do not say "Hack N Slash" as if that disqualifies it from being an RPG

Do you want to specialize in strength, dexterity (strength, but with different attack animations), or intelligence?

Why the fuck are there 3 bosses in the row? Who thought it was a good fucking idea?
Jacob Long
Do you want to play with a shield or without a shield (this alone changes the entire dynamic of melee combat)
Do you want to use Sorcery, Pyromancy, Miracles, a combination?
Are you going to use a bow and arrow or crossbow?
Do you wear light armor, heavy armor, no armor? Are you going to fatroll or ninja flip? Are you going to play at 100% or higher equip load?
What kind of weapon will you use, a big axe, small axe, katana, fuckhuge sword, caveman club, spear, rapier, straightsword, whip?
Are you going to use consumable throwing weapons?
What route are you going to take through the game? What NPCs will you interact with in what way? What ending are you going for?

None of those things require dedicated perk investment besides one or two stats. They are all played similarly and don't require much deviation in terms of what buttons you're pressing. You can expand upon a topic using more words than necessary, which is what you did, but it doesn't change the fact that it lacks any form of true intricacy or "build" development.
Souls games were always action games.
Hudson Barnes
>They are all played similarly
lmao play the game at 100% equip load trying to tank everything like a classic sword and board heavy knight with NO ranged attacks whatsoever.
then play a dagger wielding pyromancer in cloth rolling around shit. It is a completely different experience.
Try a Belmont run, again a much different experience. Do something extra gimmicky like bows only, it can be done and it's entirely different than GiantDad minmax shit. you're a fucking retard.
