Exactly. They never evolved what made SOTN good into modern games. They just kept making the same style game for handheld, and made console games that didn't have much appeal to CV fans.verbal enema posted:

Modern games how? IGA tried making two 3D Castlevania games (three if you count Nanobreaker) and was awful at it, every attempt at making a 3D CV game failed until From made Bloodborne.

They could have made something closer to Bloodborne and kept the series good and true to its roots they never did. I think we agree on this? I'm not sure what you are disagreeing with me about?

Probably the part where I would have been happy with them making handheld SotN type games forever

Oh me too. I love those games even if it's basically the same thing over and over. The directions they took the console entries were always just weird. Like Konami had no idea what made the series good so they were just throwing stuff at the wall to see what stuck since CV 64. And at no point where they like "oh it's the exploration! Let's do a game about that!" Resident Evil has always had the same problem.

Nioh is nothing like a Souls game outside of surface level elements, and literally every 2D Castlevania after SotN (except the co-op grindy one and that Lords of Shadow one) was SotN-style with some tweaks. Your opinions are basically the opposite of reality.

I don't know what the hell genocyber thought I was saying and he's pretty dumb, so I probably don't have to explain this to anyone else, but 1. The handheld CVs were total SOTN clones and 2. They were amazing and I would play all of them until the end of time if they'd keep making them.

As pointed out before, and was once again ignored, nobody is dismissing the fact Nioh has elements inspired by Souls. What's irritating is veni's continued, dumb insistence that it's a wholesale rip-off that's not done anything original - something which sidesteps aspects of Nioh repeatedly brought up, and also how not everything in the universe originated with Dark Souls.veni veni veni posted:Last time I made a mile long bullet point list of things that were directly taken from Souls, you totally ignored it and I even acknowledged all of your arguments, which frankly I think are weak. You are exactly what you accuse me of being. The way you argue is some totally unreasonable Bill Oreily poo poo. Those other bullet points were dealt with by Digirat and Snak at the time, something pointed out. But nope, you just doubled down and promptly ignored them to repeat yourself about how Nioh is a "90% rip-off" of FROM. You have a really, really weird fetish for attributing things to Dark Souls - once again you bring up the matter of waist high walls being a Souls concept, for Christ sake - and getting angry whenever anyone contradicts you on it. That you've barely scratched the surface of Nioh in the first place says a lot, dude. poptart_fairy fucked around with this message at 08:24 on Aug 12, 2017 |

What's the best wireless headset for PS4? Getting ready for some Destiny 2 with the boys and want something with reasonable sound and mic quality. I heard the Platinum Wireless Headset doesn't sound great and the mic sounds worse from YouTube vids. The SteelSeries Arctis 7 seems pretty deece, any used it?

You got me. Nioh is super original. It's nothing like that game that virtually every one that plays it and has a modicum of common sense says it's a clone of. Can we never talk about this again now?

It would be the logical progression if Souls 4 added infuriating classic Castlevania jumping physics and platforming sections. Like having to jump across Blighttown waterwheels with Medusa heads bumping you off.

The Crash Bandicoot remakes are 70% Dark Souls rip offs and 30% poo poo. 3D action game play with enemies that re spawn when you die and you can die in just a few hits. Im gonna start a Patreon for me to review games based on how close the the gold standard, Dark Souls, it is. Hellblade is a 7, Horizon is a meager 4, Night in the Woods is a 1.

So does DS copy bloodborne which copied witcher which took combat from Nioh but then DS was the first but they clearly copied diablo which copied shadow of mordor....ah gently caress who was the OG 🤔 but it doesn't matter because I think BB is the best of them all

They are all Dungeon and Dragons rip offs because damage rolls, habilities and stuff related with numbers.
