Time and time again you say you dont want to sound like a fanboy BUT the fact is that you are, like i say, its  along time since i played DS2 but i do remember it was worse than the first one, and i honestly trust myself more than a random fanboy on the net, but i do remember this:

[link]

BTW samming roll or sidestep or quen is the same, TW3 combat is pretty mediocre anyway thats the point here not that its difficult or anything, its cheesy, Dark Siders 2 has far better combat, which is a game you may like if you like ARPGS, im not saying is similar to darksouls or anything and im not saying darksouls is better, its different, but is a really good game to play if you like ARPGS better than Inquisition if you are in for the gameplay specially combat.

Sure go ahead and believe what you want mate, that much was blatantly obvious. I have played a lot of DS1, the prepare to die version including the dlcs and have finished both the souls games multiple times and done many hundreds of hours of pvp. The initial version of souls 2 is also hugely improved upon by the scholar of the first sin version. Also since I mainly focus on pvp, Ds2 has much better mechanics than Ds1 in that area. There are a lot of people who pvp regularly who'd agree with me on this. But hey if you'd just rather form your opinion from internet reviews then go right ahead! I could care less if you think I'm a fan boy especially coming from that first post of yours.

 

Have played a bit of darksiders and found it to be rather generic, might give it a try again sometime since it seems to have more depth to it than at first glance.

I love both games. I have a lot of fun with Dragon Age and with Dark Souls & Demon Souls on PS3.

So it's difficult to choose between these 2.

 

However: 12 points go to:

- Gothic 2 Night of the Raven

- Gothic 3

Still my favs.

Hahahaha, dude, dont be pathetic, you know i played Dark souls 2 i told you, only played it once though, i couldnt really stand that crappy game (compared to DS1), yeah its better than other games but its not by any measn better than DS1, if you played them both you should know it, and i know you know it, because you said it yourself you played them multiple times, its ok, Dark souls 3 is comming hopefully will be better than that piece of ****, you dont need to fanboy that game anymore, you saw that video i showed you?, i know that all he said is true for a fact because that review came when the game released and i was playing the game and everything he says is so ****** true no wonder he has 17k+ upvotes if he was telling BS those would be downvotes and you know that too, you said somethings improved, fair enough but if you see the comments some people say it got even worse, i cant comment on that because im not going to buy a game TWICE, they can go suck a bag of dicks, see, Larian studios did their GOTY game Divinity Original Sin and they did an enhanced edition and give it away for free to the people that already owned the game, same with CDproyekt red with their enhanced editions, and this assholes expect us to pay again for a game?, no thank you, and its not even a good souls game. So i dont formed my opinion based on others, i formed my opinion based on my experiences with the Souls games.

 

I want to do a mage run in DS1, never did it, only dex and str builds and that feeling is only possible because its a good game, i dont feel the same about DS2, never want to touch it again.

 

Also, dont try to project your fanboyism on me, i never fanboyed anything, certainly not DA: Inquisition and if you mean that just because i pointed out the obvious DS1 being better than DS2 then you are just showing up how fanboy you are by not accepting what its objectively true. Dosent work like that.

 

Darks siders 2 enhanced edition just released, get it, its a good game, it has depth, you have skill trees you level up and spend points on them, you get loot from enemies, you know the drill, normal, rare, epic ,legendary stuff and they add something called "possesed weapons" which level up by sacrificing other weapons to them, you kind of feed them to improve them and they inherit the characteristics of the weapon you feed to them, you have open worlsdish areas, not a big open world or anything but they are big areas which you explore and do some dungeon crawling, some are optional others dont, but is not the diablo type of dungeon crawling its the Zelda type of dungeon crawling, you solve puzzles and ****, good stuff, so you not only get good combat, get progression and character customization, you also get to use your brain to solve puzzles and ****, bosses also tend to have a way to be killed and not only follow the mechanic of "who has the biggest numbers", so you cant really overpower them by "over leveling", i dont think you cana ctually over level in that game, you get also your new game plus but with the difference that enemies scale, so its not like DS that you just kill verything in oneshot in NG+, there a re shops, you buy and sell stuff, you can buy new moves, everything you equip is visisble on your character except amulets, the story is decent specialy if you played the first Dark Siders. And if you want a challenge you can play the hardest difficulty, its fairly challenging and dosent feel cheap.

 

Dont really need to play the first one but if you want to do it, its also a good game but its different, its more like god of war and not an RPG like its sequel.

 

Like i said, if you want some good ARPG your best bet is on Dark Siders 2, Dragon Age inquisition dosent have that, it barely has AI dude... and honestly if you never even played previous DA tittles you should stay away, people only keep playing them because of the characters not because the games are good, they are pretty bad as it is now, 2 and inquisition at least, origins is a master piece so you can always play that and stop right there, DA 2 was bad but even DA2 has better gameplay than Inquisition in many aspects, Inquisition plays like an offline MMORPG... barely has any story or desicions, dont expect the level of detail of The Witcher 3 in that matter, you should stay away for your own sanity.

Dude I dunno, why are you so angry btw? Relax dude its just a game discussion, no need to get your knickers in a knot over it! 

 

Ok now as for the video, first of all a large like to dislike ratio means nothing and doesn't make the content to be an absolute truth. Don't believe me about the likes, well try this video and tell me more likes means better content: https://www.youtube....h?v=iq_d8VSM0nw

 

As for his points as to the drawbacks to the game, I can easily provide counter to the points the guy makes in the video. Unnatural artificial stepped up difficulty in Ds2? I actually found Ds1 to be harder and found Ds2 to be easier and I never felt like it was trying to maintain an artificial difficulty.

 

Second point was a comparison between Sif from dark souls 1 and Rat  authority in Ds2. For one thing Sif is a very monumental character in Ds1 playing a huge role! Rat authority is an optional boss fight that you can avoid completely. Both sif and the rat authority are easy enough boss fights and the presence of the rats while irritating isn't as large of an inconvenience as the video says it is, at least for me. Also its not fair to compare a major boss from Ds1 to an optional minor boss in Ds2. With the same logic I can compare Old iron king and Ceaseless Discharge. Ceaseless discharge is some serious dumb boss design with an artificial difficulty factor unlike old iron king which is much more iconic as a fight and you don't have to cheese the boss. Same with bed of chaos, seriously wtf was that boss battle design?

 

Also I like the way he mentioned about how the rats can be irritating and an annoyance and yet he forgot to mention an even more famous example of irritating boss sidekicks from Ds1. Remember Capra Demon? Yeah sure those dogs of his weren't irritating and total bullshit right. It had no artificial difficulty and was gold star game design right?

 

Another point he made was about the no of multiple boss battles. His example was Prowling Magnus and Freya. Come on! Those are very easy to defeat especially Magnus and even against Freya, you can easily avoid the little spiders and kill the boss with relative ease! The video creator is making an excuse for his own disability of not being able to play unlocked and blaming it on the multiple boss issue. Seriously just learn to play unlocked and its problem solved. Also Darklurker from DS2 which is the boss you face in the abyss covenent, is one of the best bosses in both ds1 and 2 and he/she only splits at the end. So I just think that's a case of having to git gud.

 

Also the gargoyles are much easier than in DS1 and I actually beat them on my first try. It was also pathetic to see the guy complaining about lock on again and again. Btw he mentioned not being able to cancel attack animations. Wrong, almost any attack can be cancelled if you do it early enough and I fought these bosses with an ultra greatsword which are among the slowest weapons in game so I know for him to complain about a straight sword being slow is silly. Can he really not have that much foresight as to not know when to attack!

 

Besides he complains about the over prescense of humanoidal enemies by showing a few of the bosses. Hmm..,let me think, asylem demon (and its recycled version later on, yeah that's not lazy design), taurus demon capra demon, demon firesage, Gyn etc...Yeah I'm sure these weren't an over abundance of humanoid enemies as well. Also he complains about the design of the turtle guards and how the wittle boy can't roll around and backstabbu him. Please,  use your ****** head. Backsteps make those turtles very trivial to deal with but no, the critic can only use the same methods he has spammed in dark souls like roll backstabbing and if that doesn't work in the new game then its shitty mechanics. 

 

Listen I can keep pointing out the remaining faults in his video but I think you get my point. The thing is you'll believe what you want to believe! Obviously you didn't like the changes in the second game and that coupled with hearing some people say its worse along with silly videos like these, made you hate the game yourself even more. I absolutely loved dark souls and I wasn't sure if ds2 would be able to pull off the same level of quality as its predecessor but I was pleasantly surprised. Perhaps because I played the game myself and made up my own mind instead of spoiling myself about the game and listening to other peoples opinions before I'd finished playing it. Also here's a video showing a few things ds2 did better than ds1;

 

And stop with the fanboy accusations, honestly what are you twelve? Is that supposed to make my arguments redundant, because that's not how it works either. Also as for you wanting to do a mage run in ds1, I'd like to point out that magic is more varied and better implemented mechanically in ds2 than it ever was in ds1. But you're free to believe what you want and keep calling me a fanboy. 

 

Thanks for your suggestions about Darksiders 2 btw and for all the gameplay details and the general overview, I'll definitely check it out if I can get my hands on it!

Cant stop calling a fanboy a fanboy, sorry, i mean, look at that rant, i made you a great summary of Dark siders 2 but you decided to go on a rant about Dark souls 2, like a fanboy... seriously dude that game is objectively worse than Dark Souls 1 period, get over it, 17k plus people disagree with you, and you know that, and i mean not everybody watches youtube but i know for a fact the majority of fans know DS2 sucked balls compared to its predecessor, you dont have to be a genius, there is only a few that say anything good about DS2 and are mostly fanboys, sorry but thats the fact and the truth. And im sure DS 2 did some good things, not everything has to be bad, even the guy in the video i linked you says it, but the problem is that goes one step further and 2 step backwards whcih makes the overall game mediocre, Dark Souls has one of the best combats in gaming but its really only suited for 1 vs 1 encounters, you maybe can handle 1 or 2 enemies 3 maybe but more than that and the combat mechanics start showing flaws, not because its bad, but because its not really designed with encounters with hordes of monsters, thats the point about the combat and i needed to clarify that point because its truth, i hope in DS3 they made some changes so combat with multiple enemies feels more natural and responsive because it needs it if they are planning to continue with that trend with the newest game, which i doubt, because they know they dropped the ball with DS2. Now, keep telling to yourself that i didnt played the game and i formed my opinion on a video or seeing internet reviews, you are in denial, like a fanboy, its what they do, they are always in denial, i played the game and finished it, when i saw the review i was already killing the red dragon that one shots you with his attacks, i forgot its name if it even has it, so i was already pretty much done with it.

Hello there, I'm a huge fan of the Dark souls series having put in a huge amount of time into them with the majority of it being into the pvp side of things. That being said I also quite like the Witcher series especially the Witcher 3 for its story and characters. I have also played a lot of Skyrim back when it came out. 

       Now the thing is, I haven't played any of the dragon age games before so I'd to get some feedback on the game. How does it compare to the Souls or the Witcher games as a benchmark?  Do I have to play any of the prequels to better understand it? Is the multiplayer any good? I have played a lot of the ME3 multiplayer which I hear it is familiar to but I'm also hearing some negative remarks unlike the Mp for ME3 which was fantastic. Any suggestions are welcome.

 

Short answer:

Dragon Age is better than those other games.

 

Long answer:

Dragon Age is better than those other games only if your personal taste for games coincides with the aspects that Dragon Age does better than those other games. Nobody does story and characters and drawing the player in to the gameworld over the course of multiple games like Bioware. There are literally ZERO other developers out there doing games like this.

 

Even with the new RPG renaissance that I LOVE these new old school RPG's still don't quite grasp the full gravity of Bioware's style. And maybe they aren't trying to, maybe they are trying to do something different and that's fine but what they are doing is not as good as what Bioware does at their best.

 

Now on the flip side if you are just looking for an action fighting game pretending to be a role playing game by wearing a bunch of stats and having a level up tree, then starting at Dragon Age Origins might not be your thing. And honeslty, if you don't want to start playing Dragon Age at the very beginning you might want to consider if the game is really for you anyway. I don't mean this in a bad way. I also absolutely do NOT want to discourage you from playing Dragon Age because Dragon Age is amazing.

 

You will absolutely want to start at the start. Dragon Age Origins is seriously one of the best games of all time. And if you don't want to play one of the best games of all time which happens to be the very starting point for Dragon Age, then why do you want to play Dragon Age at all?

Loooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooool

GIF--laughing-funny-LOL-haha-hehe-hilari

 

You didn't respond to any of my points about my response to the video, keeps calling me a fanboy, and states the same things over and over again! Oh hahahaha, dark souls is only designed for 1v1 combat. Pls preach some more of that idiocy you're parroting from the video when I've beaten 3 player gank squads by myself. Also nice logic with comparing games objectively based on your personal bias. Oh and great job on not understanding that I was thanking you for your suggestion about dark siders 2. Also even better that you've made blanket statements over the whole dlc content as well and keeps insisting they're bad without even playing the dlcs.

 

If you actually like to counter each of my points, your're welcome to do so. But of course you wont, instead you'll keep calling me a fan boy, keep repeating ds1 is better and then keep pointing to the video as if its the holy grail of reasoning when I've clearly countered the points he made. Also mate, I don't think you're gonna like Dark Souls 3 either because its definitely not focused 1v1 gameplay. Just save your money and say its bad as well.

In fact why am I even arguing with you. Yes of course dark souls 1 is the best souls game. There you go, hope you're happy. Now go slander someone else.Cheerio.

 

Yours sincerely

Fanboy.

You are so mad fanboy, damn its really delicious to see it, you even called me an idiot now...  just wow, this are the true colors of fanboys, i really dont have to do anything, because you cant reason with fanboys, "i beaten a gank of 3 players" dude, what do you want me to do?, to give you a medal?, a cookie?, im not talking about pvp never talked about pvp but hey keep playing dumb and trying to look stupid on purpose, i know you know what i mean when i said that combat wasnt balanced for more than 1 v 1 but you are just delusional, you are not just a fanboy of DS2 but of DS in general, everybody knows the combat is good but its only balanced around 1 v 1, dosent mean you cant take more than that but like i said, the falws start showing up, but you keep with that big ****** blindfold on your eyes, i dont give a ****, fanboys are pathetic seriously.

 

Im not gonna play the DLC's because

 

1- Dark Souls 2 is a poor product

2-They dont deserve more of my money for that poor product

3- Im not gonna buy a game TWICE only fanboys think that **** is ok to do.

4-No matter how much amount of DLC got released, there is no redemption for that crapy game, nothing they do will fix that, period.

5-I prefer to wait for Dark Souls 3, maybe they got the idea now, that people dont like trash products.

 

Like i said, i dont have to counter anything, the general consensus is DS2 sucks, PERIOD, everybody and their mothers knows that, except fanboys of course, there is a LOT of info out there but you dont have to look for it because you already played the damn game, you just have to leave the ****** blindfold, ut you are not gonna do it, you are a fanboy, and fanboys are just shells, tools, to be used and discarded, more like milked and discarded, they dont think, at all.

 

And keep with the defamation fanboy, about me not playing the game, thats ****** sad, that you have to keep making up **** to dont face reality, so ****** sad and yes i will buy Dark souls 3 and when it proves to be garbage then i will trash it just like im doing with DS2 and if its good then i will be the first one to say it.

Replying with a gif and a string of lols is not exactly helping your case of not being a fanboy though... Points or no points. Best to mot post like the typical internet troll if you want people to be open to your opinions.

That was precisely my intention. It was supposed to be satire because despite the fact that I'd already provided several valid points as counter, they completely neglected them and instead kept repeating the same things as before. Which is precisely why the long lols and the GIF as when logic and reason fail, being a satirical  "internet troll" is the next best option. Perhaps you missed me accepting my fate as a fan boy at the end as well.

  I honestly couldn't care for someone accusing me as a fan boy when they can't even maintain a logical debate and keep pushing their delusional arguments on others as the objective truth. So yes that's exactly what I'd wanted.

First of all, I didn't call you an idiot. I called your ideology idiotic, big difference there "genius". But perhaps the mind sees what it wants to see eh! Also I dunno how you assume to know that I know what you mean about 1v1 combat and yet I'm delusional for disagreeing with you. Excellent logic there mate! The very reason I brought up pvp was because pvp is always gonna be harder than pve and yet there are still players who can win against multiple opponents. So it's laughable that the guy in the video was crying about fighting a couple zombies in one of the easiest boss fights in game. 

 

Excellent points for not playing the dlc too. Yet you still presume it's **** and believe that it doesn't affect the game without ever playing it. Your powers of reasoning continue to astound me good sir! Ooh and keep calling me a fanboy, that hurts my wittle feelings and really drives the logic in your points even further. 

Hmm..  can I have that cookie btw?

Seems the way most discussions involving Souls or The Witcher go...

A thread like this one should be forbidden on this forum and locked right away. People obviously can't chill.

Oof, this is gonna get ugly.

There are three significant differences:

1) Dragon Age is a party-based combat game. You can solo the game, but that's generally for diehards; most people play these games for the interaction with party members.
2) It is considerably lighter in tone than The Witcher and Dark Souls, both overwhelmingly bleak games.
3) Unlike The Witcher, you can select a race and gender for your main character. And unlike Dark Souls, your PC speaks.

You will certainly have a greater appreciation for what's going on if you play the first two games, but it isn't an absolute requirement. In general, the devs create each new DA game to be newbie-friendly; every game features its own hero and main villain.

 

I'm giving you full credit on this one.

Unless I'm wrong this is a forum for open discussion and debates on the related topics. Ironice that you'd suggest people to chill and yet suggest that topics be premptively banned for sensitive content. 

 

Also a huge thank you to everyone who gave me their tips and suggestions, irrespective of the differences in opinion/perspective we might've had! I understood a great deal about the game and it's genre and also about other worthwhile suggestions.

Yeah, like I said people can't chill if it comes to topics like this one. So rather ban it than having a war. I've seen enough on this forum believe me and not just on the English one :)

First of all, I didn't call you an idiot. I called your ideology idiotic, big difference there "genius". But perhaps the mind sees what it wants to see eh! Also I dunno how you assume to know that I know what you mean about 1v1 combat and yet I'm delusional for disagreeing with you. Excellent logic there mate! The very reason I brought up pvp was because pvp is always gonna be harder than pve and yet there are still players who can win against multiple opponents. So it's laughable that the guy in the video was crying about fighting a couple zombies in one of the easiest boss fights in game.

I also liked Darksider's combat, the second game's especially. I thought I was the only one that actually liked those games, even if they are derivative.

 

They definitely play much better than the Souls games with mouse and keyboard. I simply gave those up after a time, the control scheme is simply not suited to a PC in the slightest if you ask me.

 

Witcher 2 and 3's combat is adequate, but no further. It lacks options and is very repetitive, which is bad in a game that can last for 80+ hours like Wild Hunt.

 

All in all, I much prefer party-based combat to action-based combat in RPGs, whenever it's real time with pause or turn-based. More options, greater strategic depth, more interesting enemy design.

I love those games. I don't care if their mechanics are derivative, they were fun and well done.

"Derivative mechanics" is a pretty dopey complaint. Shouldn't mechanics just work?

I think the complaints, at least for the first one, was that it was basically Zelda (Right down to the hookshot)

Never really understood how that was a bad thing...
