Hype.

I liked Bloodborne. But, I felt that it wasn't nearly as good as Dark Souls.

Looks great. And seems we are going back to Anor Londo.

After my disappointment with DS 2 I'm reserved about DS 3.

We've got a new trailer showcasing enemies and gameplay. The fighting looks much faster than previous Dark Souls, but not as hectic as Bloodborne just yet. The release date will be 2016

Cant wait!
Both DS were great yet to play BB.

Badass looking boss. That surprised the hell out of me. I'd actually advise you guys against watching that video. I kind of wish I could have experienced that for myself.

Looks dope.

I've played DMS, DKS and BB and loved them, so this is a must buy. Looks like they've borrowed some things from BB.

Disappointment how? Seemed like more of the same to me, which isn't necessarily a bad thing..

The loose and floating feel of the controls vs DS1. The wonky and illogical level design which seemed to somehow overlap other levels. The availability of certain upgrade materials until much later in the game. The off timing of backstabs and parries with NPCs. Too many stats which overlap each other when you level up. Poise is broken. Stamina get used too quickly and regenerates too slowly compared to DS1.

DS1 has tighter controls. DS1 levels all are logical and continuous, except for the DLC and Painted World. Anor Londo and the Duke's Archives are semi-detached. I can get all materials and embers for a +15 weapon in DS1 before the Gargoyles, Taurus Demon and Queelag. I feel backstanbs and parries have better timing and windows of use in DS1 (though backstabs are a bit too easy). The stats in DS1 are clearer and more logical. Poise works much better in DS1 without hyper-armor. Stamina depletion and regeneration is superior imo in DS1.

DS1 doesn't let you play dress-up as well though. So it's worse.

The outfits in Dark Souls 2 were pretty bad-ass. But a prettier and more customizable game isn't a better one.

Know you were joking, just wanted to throw that out there.

I shouldn't even be talking about DS2, since I haven't touched it yet.

You and your fashion souls. sneer

Also, kinda dislike the aesthetics.

They seemed a bit too clean for the Souls-verse.

The health bars, stamina bar, even the way ANY of your characters look.

The enemies.

Everything in the game seems to not have the original's feel.

Jmanghan Senior Member

Was talking about DS2... J-Just so you know.

Well, the combat is supposed to be a mixture of Bloodborne and Dark Souls 1.

More fast-paced then the original at least.

Hope we get some cool spells.
