dark souls 3 was the worst only because most the bosses were way too easy and it just couldnt compete with bloodborne (which had lore that was actually interesting).
-
[quote]Dark Souls 2 is the worst in the series[/quote] Disagree.

Im sorry but its true, the lore was bs, the graphics got worse from dark souls 1, the game was incredibly easy, and worst of all, scythes suck!

Edited by shell: 11/3/2016 5:36:40 PMHow was the lore BS? The rest is subjective.
-
Most of it was just random bs that tried to sound cool, some of it screwed up the DS1 lore, Miyazaki had to make DS3 to fix the lore behind the entire series because Fromsoft got greedy and made DS2 twice...

You could've, y'know, said how it was bad, instead of saying it was bad again. The only thing that didn't make sense at first was Ornstein, but I already figured that out, so tell me what doesn't make sense.

Im sorry but i dont know how to sum it up other than it feels like they pulled the whole story out of their ass. Some of the covenants stayed the same from DS1 (mostly bluebros) but even the lore behind them got screwed up. Then theres also all the new lore from Miyazaki himself in DS3 where he uses and advances the lore from DS1, but he ignores pretty much everything in DS2. Its why we had terrible summoning for blades and sentinels in the beginning of DS3s release, because he wanted the summon system to agree lore wise. Another bit of evidence to further support my claim, most youtubers who cover the lore series, never mention DS2. But they always have shout outs to DS1. "Is Farron Keep Olicile? Sister Friede and Pricilla? Velka? Izalith?" Ive only seen DS2 mentioned once in the lore, and it was talking about the lords and the ages with one reference to Vendrik, and then it was back to the opening cinematic from DS1. All in all (by comparison) Dark Souls 2 was crap. If it was its own game and series, it could pass as a good game. But after no lifing Dark Souls 1 and 3, 2 just is an absolute joke of a game. (IMO) P.S. Bloodborne is better than them all!

Edited by shell: 11/3/2016 7:25:54 PMSo, the lore sucks because you don't pay attention to it. There are not many connections with Drangliec and Lothhric, so of course it isn't talked about much if all you look at is Dark Souls 3 stuff. The only connection to Drangliec is through Creighton and Anor Londo and, and even then the latter is only by association to the original game. Although, considering how little you seem to know about the lore, you probably don't even know how Anor Londo is connected to Drangliec, or who Creighton is.

My issue isnt the lack of connections between Drangliec and Lothric, but more ties were made between Lordran and Lothric, the lore of Lordran got a lil screwy because of DS2. Ill totally admit i didnt pay as much attention to the lore behind DS2, so theres probably quit a bit I missed, but that still doesnt make up for the bad lore. It was missing the "Miyazaki touch". If there was any chance that the lore was worth continuing for DS2, Miyazaki would have put it in for the DS3 dlc, which he didnt. Its going into the story of the painted worlds and the Dark Soul of Man. More references to Dark Souls 1. Ill say it again. Dark Souls 2 isnt a bad game, but compared to Dark Souls, Datk Souls 3, and most importantly Bloodborne, Dark Souls 2 is the worst out of them all graphically, lore-wise, and had the worst gameplay.
