What's with all the Dark Souls 3 hate threads recently?

Will elden Ring have Denuvo?

It’s some DS2fagboi that is larping that DS3 is a horrible game to deflect criticism from DS2 (where it belongs). If you see someone shit posting about DS3 being a bad game take it to the bank that it’s a DS2cuck

thanks man I just uninstalled and refunded all of my fromsoft games

Different phases are objectively a good thing, it's more content, and pushes you out of your comfort zone once you get used to a boss' moveset. Shit, even the best bosses in the past entries had multiple phases. Manus? Yep. Artorias? Yep. Fume Knight? Yeah. Ludwig? OoK? I can keep going

You really hit the nail on the head, OP. Everything you mentioned is why I think DS3 is the second worst in the series. Plus, the bosses are all big people with weapons, one of the same reasons why DS2 was so boring. That, and the areas are all unoriginal rehashes that we've seen in every soulsborne game since.

> Is it the faster pace and some don't like the DS/BB hybrid gameplay?

Yes, it breaks the atmosphere of the games to see a heavily armoured knight roll and spin around for days, the spastic movements of tons of enemies are just ridiculous, the levels are extremely unoriginal with some few exceptions, too many recycled NPCs and NPC stories, firelink shrine is just the nexus from demon's souls, the balance is completely off and the Knight, R1 and longsword are simply much superior to anything else, builds like Faith and Luck are totally ass until half the game is already over, the lore is the most illogical yet (somehow all of society worships le man eating man and everyone gets sacrificed, local pontiff ruins EVERYTHING somehow, etc), too much fanservice and pandering, etc.

However the game is still very fun to play, but there are many flaws that make it hard to really "care" about it. It's basically soulless. Sekiro is much better and full of soul.

Sister Friede, Midir and Gael are great fights; Demon Prince was not great, but still pretty good; Halflight and Champion's Gravetender were shit though. So DS3 has 4 good-to-great DLC bosses.

Comparatively, DS2 had 9 DLC bosses. 4 of them great (Fume, Alonne, Ivory, Sinh), 2 average (Elana, Aava) and 3 shit (Gank Squad, Kitty Cats, Blue Smelter).

And Bloodborne had 5 DLC bosses. 4 great ones (Ludwig, Maria, Laurence, Orphan) and 1 average (Living Reddit), no shit ones.

Adding it up, good-to-great bosses per game per DLC:
DS2= 6/9
DS3= 4/6
BB= 5/5
Meaning that DS2 and DS3 DLC bosses are about equal in terms of quality, and BB just completely stomps on both of them.

Samefagging DS2 tards has been shitting on the game for years because of its success and activity

DS3 DLC bosses are all 100% easier than Orphan. And DS3 bosses (maingame and AoA) aren’t hard for the right reasons kek. They revolve around 10+ hit RnG combos, Bloodborne speed and untelegraphed attacks in order to frustrate rather than be fun. Orphan of Kos is the hardest one but it’s hard for the right reasons and is the best Souls boss by far. Fume Knight is also better than every DS3 maingame boss.
Ringed City is amazing, but The Old Hunters is still better. The level design is better, the combat system is more satisfying and it has Orphan of Kos.

old hunters is the best dlc ever made
