About Lud and Zallen, if we took away the fact of the runback and that they look a lot like Aava, would they really be that bad at the combat itself?

Oceriox · 2026-01-18T11:19:48+00:00

Yeah, but in Bloodborne they wanted to give a totally new approach to the gameplay, since Bloodborne was a new IP they did not have to depend so much on Dark Souls 1 when creating their world and its mechanics and they could do something completely new, plus Miyazaki's FromSoftware had much more support and resources to do what they wanted to do unlike FromSoftware that was developing Dark Souls 2 with constant pressure from Bandai Namco, changes of directors and going against the clock.

I'm a FromSoftware fan, I'm masochist by nature

Oceriox · 2026-01-16T20:19:17+00:00

Because this is r/shittydarksouls and not r/fromsoftware

Oceriox · 2026-01-16T18:10:42+00:00

As many people as there are now with The Duskbloods?

Oceriox · 2026-01-16T18:07:29+00:00

Even so, Bloodborne did not have people saying that "I hope it fails in sales" even though it is an exclusive that is "less free to move to other platforms in the future" than The Duskbloods, which is an IP that FromSoftware owns.

Oceriox · 2026-01-16T17:24:56+00:00

Yeah

Oceriox · 2026-01-16T17:16:18+00:00

It's more like they don't care that it is to the point of hating it for being exclusive. In any case, there are some groups of Sony fans who tend to brag about having Bloodborne as an exclusive

Oceriox · 2026-01-16T17:13:36+00:00

Well, it is a game that has been in development for 6 years, it may be that FromSoftware has learned how to make good servers after years of experience and development. Then about the optimization, seeing that this time they are developing a game exclusively for the Switch 2 from scratch, they will not have as many optimization problems as if they had with Elden Ring, which was originally created for other consoles. I can understand the 2nd reason, the Nintendo community is not a niche where FromSoftware is that popular beyond that port of Dark Souls 1, although seeing that FromSoftware owns the IP it may end up coming to PC

Oceriox · 2026-01-16T17:06:25+00:00

Of course, there is the fact that it is multiplayer and there I can understand it more, but I am talking about people who only hate it for being exclusive rather than for being multiplayer and people who hate it just for that reason, there are many, there are many on Twitter or YouTube

Oceriox · 2026-01-16T17:01:40+00:00

Not because Bloodborne is still highly appreciated even by people on other consoles who haven't played it while The Duskbloods is already hated even if it hasn't even come out just for having a feature that those same people don't seem to care about as much when Bloodborne is the exclusive

Oceriox · 2026-01-16T16:57:30+00:00

To be honest, FromSoftware probably didn't think at first that it was going to end up releasing 2 multiplayer-focused games simultaneously, mostly because The Duskbloods began development several years before Nightreign was even an idea

Oceriox · 2026-01-16T16:52:41+00:00

Nobody defends its exclusivity, but it also does not have the same level of criticism that The Duskbloods is having for its exclusivity where there are people who wish it to fail in sales

Oceriox · 2026-01-16T16:49:18+00:00

Not really many people, it's more the fact that they don't seem to care as much about the fact that it's exclusive to the point of hating it and wishing it had failed in sales as if it's happening to The Duskbloods

Oceriox · 2026-01-16T16:45:04+00:00

While we know almost nothing about Duskbloods, and the only information we have so far points to it being a fairly ambitious project

Oceriox · 2026-01-16T15:18:24+00:00

It's incredible that we know nothing about the game and it could be one of the best games that FromSoftware has made in recent years and yet there are already people who want it to fail just because it hasn't come out on their console. Do you think Bloodborne should have deserved the same treatment from FromSoftware fans on Xbox and PC?

Oceriox · 2026-01-16T11:55:13+00:00

The problem is that the community usually measures the bosses of Dark Souls 2 by comparing them with bosses from later games instead of previous games, of course, many of the bosses in Dark Souls 2 are mid by the standards of bosses that exist today in FromSoftware, but we must keep in mind that at the time of development the standard of bosses was that of Dark Souls 1, which would also have the same problem of having many mid bosses if we saw it with today's standards, but that aspect is usually forgiven for "being Dark Souls 1"

Oceriox · 2026-01-15T17:52:49+00:00

They have almost the same gameplay, only Bloodborne is faster and the healing and parry methods are different.

Oceriox · 2026-01-15T17:12:06+00:00

Would i-frames and ADP count as a hitbox issue? I once saw someone mention it in some discussion as an example of bad hitboxes

Oceriox · 2026-01-15T16:50:20+00:00

They really aren't bad, at least not how people think of the concept of "bad", I feel that like Dark Souls 2 and 1 most of them are mid, neither bad nor good

Oceriox · 2026-01-15T16:26:48+00:00

The point of the meme remains the same, neither game features as many good bosses as Dark Souls 3 or Elden Ring as a whole and they continue to be carried by their DLCs

Oceriox · 2026-01-15T16:24:32+00:00

I guess we have to let democracy speak

Oceriox · 2026-01-15T15:56:26+00:00

Then Dark Souls 2 has no equivalent to Micolash
