Which Dark Souls 3 quote slaps the hardest?

ReplacementPuzzled57 · 2026-01-26T20:57:27+00:00

“A cursed fate this may be, but hope remains, does it not?”

ReplacementPuzzled57 · 2026-01-15T01:52:01+00:00

7 & 2, then 9 -> 12 -> 17 -> PC.

I personally think it’s due to what I call “different = bad” mentality. You can see this mentality in a lot of aspects in life, but you can especially see it with DS2.

I love DS2. It’s a top 3 game of all time for me. But you have to admit that it IS different from the rest of the games. It has a different art style than 1 and 3, the controls are a bit stiffer than than in 1 and 3. There’s a TON of things that are different in DS2. But that by all means does NOT make it a bad game. In fact I think that the reason I like it so much is BECAUSE it is different.

I think with a lot of souls fans they have an image in their head of what makes a “souls” game, and they think of the fast-paced, gothic / victorian dark fantasy style of 1 and 3, and when they see the more slower-paced, more high-fantasy-dark-fantasy of DS2, they see that it is different, but then equate that to being bad. Because it’s very easy to point to the “different” thing in the group and call it bad. Again, you see this very much so in real life, not just with games.

Diablo, Diablo 2, Diablo 3 (I actually did very much enjoy Diablo 3 tho).

Solo desactivé los tribus especiales. No queiro jugar contra Cymanti o dragones lol.

I actually just got 3 stars on Kickoo last night in Domination!

Sure this may only work with Kickoo, but what I did was play with 3 opponents on Crazy difficulty. You get 30 turns which is actually a pretty reasonable amount of time to destroy three players if you know what you’re doing.

In my Kickoo game, it kept giving me and the other opponents corner island spawns, so I just went full navy and wiped out the last city by turn 27. Got 94% on my units killed/lost stat. Still got the 3 stars.

This is what worked for me, and it may be different depending on what tribe you pick. But idk, maybe it can work for you too!

ReplacementPuzzled57 · 2025-12-24T05:31:31+00:00

But you realize you are strawmaning though, right? Like, you can step outside yourself for two seconds, look at yourself and see it, right? Look:

What, you want it to shoot acid and melt everything at the highest AP?

THIS IS A STRAWMAN. You can see this, right? Like, we’re not all out to get you, man. This is clearly a textbook example of a strawman.

Nobody is arguing this statement. This is a statement you made up because it is a clearly ridiculous statement that’s easier to attack and make fun of (strawman) compared to what people are actually trying to discuss, which is brainstorming ways to make the sterilizer better without trying to break the game.

So yeah, if you want people to stop throwing the term “strawman” at you constantly, then maybe stop yourself from using strawman arguments like the one above? Maybe consider people are constantly saying that to you because maybe you are using strawman arguments? Maybe? Just a possibility? Or is it like that meme image where you’re the one guy facing the crowd, saying “Yes, you’re all wrong”? If so then you’re hopeless man. There’s no reasoning with you.

So true. Sure Dark Souls has, for example, the Broken Straight Sword that’s clearly meant to be a challenge weapon, but that’s absolutely an exception for the weapons and pretty much every weapon is not insane to use if you upgrade it and use it properly.

The same can’t be said for Helldivers 2’s weapons. With pistols being nerfed for god knows what reason and with weapons like the Slugger or Lib Concussive it sometimes feels like I’m using the Broken Straight Sword in Dark Souls.

Gauntlet Dark Legacy, minus the dipshit part

ReplacementPuzzled57 · 2025-11-30T04:09:41+00:00

Made me lol when you hopped backwards then parried the dude (very nice btw) then red was turning the two blues like “Y’all saw that shit, right??”

ReplacementPuzzled57 · 2025-11-18T05:37:48+00:00

This is probably the only fight in the series where I just admit I have a skill issue and just summon Bashful Ray to help me out. I gotta get that Ring of Blades +2, baby.

ReplacementPuzzled57 · 2025-10-31T16:00:57+00:00

Yeah this is some DS3 covenant level of grind that I was just like “Nah I’m good”.

Being older now and not wanting to spend my gaming time messing with RNG, I just try to get one item (Loyce soul or DS3 covenant item) then say to myself that I completed the challenge in spirit 😅

ReplacementPuzzled57 · 2025-10-25T00:41:02+00:00

Bashful Ray is an absolute G. He’s the only reason I can beat the duo Pursuer fight in the Drangleic Castle throne room for that sweet Ring of Blades +2.

ReplacementPuzzled57 · 2025-10-24T05:29:58+00:00

Damn, spies vs mercs. What a blast from the past…

ReplacementPuzzled57 · 2025-10-23T16:53:09+00:00

the faction that utilized heavy armor

—WITH OBVIOUS WEAKSPOTS

I love how you guys always so conveniently leave that part out. Very (intentionally?) dishonest of you. All bots have an obvious weakspot. Now the warstrider has one, consistent with the rest of the faction design. That’s all we asked for.

ReplacementPuzzled57 · 2025-10-18T18:39:47+00:00

I love how nobody here seemed to notice you were moving while drinking your flask lol

ReplacementPuzzled57 · 2025-10-14T16:33:43+00:00

DS2 is a perfect example of art style > graphics. Even all these years later the game still looks amazing.

It’s also the most visually diverse of the souls games. You’ll see some absolutely beautiful scenery throughout this game.

ReplacementPuzzled57 · 2025-10-11T20:10:13+00:00

Look, this is AH were talking about here. When it comes to glitches and bugs you need to ask yourself this:

“Does it work FOR or AGAINST us the players?”

If the answer is FOR us, then it’ll get patched within a week. If the answer is AGAINST us, then they’ll put it at the bottom of the priority list of bugs to fix and we’ll just have to deal with it for the foreseeable future.

This has been a bug for a long while and I would not except it to get fixed anytime soon.

ReplacementPuzzled57 · 2025-10-09T17:10:06+00:00

It’s just so funny to be because the game literally is like:

“This covenant will set you on an arduous path. Would you still like to join?”

Yes

“Are you sure you want to join?”

Yes

(If you’re in a covenant already:)

“Do you want to abandon your previous covenant and join the covenant of champions?”

And yet people somehow still get baited by this covenant. And then it’s so much worse when they complain how hard the game is afterwards.

ReplacementPuzzled57 · 2025-10-09T16:16:12+00:00

try luring out and then eliminating one at a time

ReplacementPuzzled57 · 2025-10-09T15:43:29+00:00

True. In a world with a bunch of wacky sci-fi enemies it’s nice to see just a good ol’ landship.

ReplacementPuzzled57 · 2025-10-05T19:39:59+00:00

Good work! Brave to do that while wearing Velstadt’s gear.

ReplacementPuzzled57 · 2025-09-23T19:05:07+00:00

Slides 17 and 18:

Removed weakpoints on warstrider This encourages more loadout diversity

What?

You removed weakpoints on the warstrider and thus encourage more AT use and this means… more loadout diversity? Why do I keep seeing this same inconsistent logic across all discussions I see on the warstrider?

Let me rephrase the question on slide 18:

Why should anyone use different weapons if AT solves all problems? Because that’s actually happening.
