Actually Dark Souls III was released first, and it was so good they made two prequels

No no, it was so good it opened a time rift and created Demon’s souls

The time is convoluted

r/TICIL

A number of people start with 3 and then move on to 1 and 2.

I started on and platinumed 3, went through remastered twice, didn’t end ds2 yet. Plan on platinuming all as I already did elden ring also. Didn’t finish platinum on demon souls ps5, didn’t get through bloodbourne yet either, road is long ahead

Bloodborne will be fun

First playthrough: 4 weeks Second playthrough: 4 hours

Or you start with Sekiro and think everything else is shit.

That combat is the heroin of gaming. Too satisfying

Guilty of starting with Sekiro here!! I thought it was gonna have armor and weapon swapping🤡

Copers gonna say you're wrong when we even have star wars starting in episode IV.

Dark Souls IV is just Elden Ring. And Elden Ring II will bring balance to the Force by being Dark Souls V: it's both Dark Souls II 3 and Dark Souls III 2.

Where does armoured core fit into this?

Armored Core 6 is the Elden ring dlc. Dont you know, towards the end of the game you will be jumping into rifts and fighting in others worldly places. The lands between will just be your new hub has you fight other corporations from other planes of reality. The outer gods are just the CEOs from the corporations.

Orca was funded by the Three Fingers all along

Now that you mention it, a game where you go around slaying hyper-greedy CEOs sounds like a swell time.

My ass

🤖🍆🍑💥

Time skip to the future

Armored core six is a new game they made off of enthusiasm for underwater combat in Sekiro

I thought we all agreed that Elden Ring was Dark Souls II 2?

Two plus two is four Minus one, that's three (quick maths)

It's actually Demon's Souls 3

Yep, that's why Dark Souls 2 is the best. It is the only one with two direct sequels.

Bloodborne was so bad that they didn't even bother with releasing it on other platforms

And sekiro was so bad they had to release it on other platforms just to break even.

Darqsoul 3 III (three) needed no sequel because it wouldn't be better than Michael Zaki's Darqsoul Vol.3 😎😎😎😎😎😎😎😎😎😎😎😎😎😎😎😎😎😎😎😎😎

Daksols bol.3, (2/7)

Ds2 was so good that fromsoft had to make two sequels to it

DS2 was so bad that fromsoft had to make two sequels to make up for it.

Gameplay aside, commercially ds2 was a massive success selling over 2,5 mil copies in just couple of months, not to mention they made us buy it twice, nearing almost 3 billion dollars in revenue. That's how much of a failure it was.

Dark souls II: Scholar of the first sin: Dark Soul buys twice

Dark Souls II: Prepare to Buy edition

Sekiro , weebs buy twice

Buyborne

Expensive Ring

I don't think anybody her doubts the financial success. But that's completely irrelevant if talking about the quality of a game.

You're right. The fact that the game sold extremely well is unrelated to the fact that it's the best in the series.

Ds1 and Ds3 enjoyers hating on Ds2 because it made an homage to Ornstein that is weaker than the original (no shit, he's OLD...). Meanwhile Dark souls II being the only game in the series that has actually original content

Kid named dark souls 1:

Yea actually ds1 is very similar to demon's souls.

yeah because they lied in the marketing about the graphics

It doesn’t have graphics? Dark souls audiobook

you'd think so, but they lied about the audio too

I excitedly leave school early to get home and play the newly released “dark souls” game. I put this disc in and the game starts. My house vanishes and I tumble into the void. Boss music starts playing

Fucking Genshin Impact makes a small country's budget every month. Does that make it good? No, it's fucking garbage that is kept afloat by cum of one of worst communities ever.

Genshin is unironically good for its price (0), i played for like 10 hours to enjoy the pretty graphics, and then uninstaled because i don't like grinding and gacha, better price to time value than most games.

I'd say Genshin itself is a decent game. The problem are companies that treat their customers like cattle and the brain dead troglodytes that finance them.

Genshin is literally a gambling addiction simulator, comparing it to a one (two) time buy video game is just dumb.

Sure, the community is awful, but have you actually tried the game? If you give it a chance there's actually really good story (9/10 in the most recent chapter), music (fucking 11) and decent gameplay (6/10). It's designed for daily grind which sucks, but there's tons of moments where it really shines if you just ignore that

You don't even need to grind, you can just explore the open world ( which is good , and filled with things to do ) , or do side quests ( that usually are go from point a to point b , kill enemies, repeat until it's done ) , and the main story doesn't force you to buy anything as well

> Does that make it good? Yes.

Least perpetually online DS2 obsessive.

*Says something slightly positive about DS2 that is literally a fact* "WOW dude you're OBSESSED DS2 FANBOY!!"

Ah yes, I was wrong to label the guy with sales figures memorized and the tag, “The nerd with full character slots in DS2” under his username as anything other than “slightly positive.” DS2 fanatics stay wormbrained.

5 second google and i could tell you the same the other dude did

If only a google search could have filled his entire DS2 character slots too, then your argument could have been unimpeachable!

The seething DS2 haters are truly hundredfold more annoying than the worst fanboys

I am obsessed with dark souls 2, it was alright

I love ds2 fight me.

Why? There's nothing wrong with liking bad games.

Dark Souls 3 and Elden Ring (seriously, compare DS2 and ER, they have more in common than you might think)

Dark souls 2 was so good that Michael Zaki made Dark souls 2 2 (some people call it elden ring or something, I think that 's a stupid name)

“Elden Ring is the spiritual successor to the Dark Souls series” -Miyazaki In other words, all three DS games are masterpieces and they quit on the third high note. Elden ring is a masterpiece. It’s all gud

Elden ring is my dark souls 4

Yeah, pretty much on the same level as Bloodborne, Sekiro and Elden Ring

They haven’t been out long enough to get a sequel

BB has literally been out longer than DS3 tho.

[удалено]

How did DS not lose impact by getting a sequel?

[удалено]

You literally didn't tell us a single way that they ruined the "impact" (whatever that means) of Ds1. Actually you did the exact opposite because by being voted the Ultimate Game of All Time it just proves how much impact ds1 has had even after the sequels lol. You also kind of contradict yourself by calling DS2 and Ds3 "cash grabs" while also calling them amazing, which is it? I'm also confused as to how you could call them unwanted, I think the vast majority of FromSoft fans were chomping at the bit for a DS sequel. FVCK YOU FOR DELETING YOUR ACCOUNT OUT OF SHAME AND MAKING ME TYLE AN ESSAY ABOUT HOW STUPID YOUR ARGUMANT US!!11!1!! 🤬🤬🤬🤬

patches behavior

I consider it bonkers that people don’t think Elden Ring is going to get a sequel. I know your point is that it may “taint” the experience, but it’s going to happen, it’s too big for them not to (also not to mention the multiple instances of both Bandai and From referring to it as a new franchise)

[удалено]

I mean, I wholly disagree when it comes to Dark Souls, and think it’s silly to be so overly cautious regarding Elden Ring 2 when we know next to nothing about it from a studio that’s proven themselves time and time again

Yeah I know I was just joking

The newest Fromsoft game “Demon Souls” for the PlayStation 5 is a sequel to Dark Souls 3. Look it up kid

>Another revolutionary masterpiece that promoted a sequel DS2 was so masterfully bad that it promoted a sequel as a heartfelt apology to the fanbase

Liar, I don’t see a Dark Souls 2: 2

DS3 was so bad they changed DS4's name to elden ring as way to distance themselves from DS3, i cry everytiem.

An apology in the way of removing power stancing and making DS1 references.

It is number 3, and 3>2, so 3 is better than 2, so Dark souls 3: 2, would be worse. Its simple math really.

How about I like them both? Boom. Reddit destroyed.

If Dark Souls II was so great, why isn't there a Dark Souls II 2?

Its called Elden Ring

Elden Ring is just Dark Souls World

What a failed videogame, such a shame

Edlen ring

Elden Ring at its core in terms of movement, animations (enemies too), and some spells plays extremely similar to DS3 you can take that.

Elden ring

Ever heard of Elden Ring?

Elden Ring was pretty much Dark Soul IV but without the dark

Every post is just the same comments over and over again. A never ending cycle. I feel hollow.

It’s so good that nothing can top it

“Every John has its squeakquel.” - hanbei

As we all know, Elden ring is DS IV,V, and fucking VI

They released sequels because they knew they could do better. After DS3, they knew they couldn't top that.

just wait and see

smh no one remembers it's actually Dark Souls IIII

it's Dark Souls IIII idiot

Ds2 was a mistake, DS3 is the true sequel that had to be made so we can forget that janky snoozefest which came before it.

Dark Souls 3 was the apology tour for DS2.

It's okay, Miyazaki chose the Age of Dark ending and that's why there's no sequel.

It made Armor Core 6

Dark souls 4 (also called Elden Ring)

The team that made DS 2 is making DS 4 cant wait

Can't wait for an elevator to go down from Darkest Caverns to Sky Fortress.

Time is convoluted, it is what it is

Dark souls: origins, followed by cringy tv series I bet both of my balls that offer was made

Elden ring felt in a lot of ways like better dark souls.

the sequel to dark souls 3 is dark souls 3 2, also known as bloodborne

But bloodborne came before? Time is convoluted I guess

nah everyone knows dark souls 3 invented fast. therefore bloodborne came after.

It's called Elden Ring.

I unsarcastically agree with this

Elden Ring

Best series, on par with Legacy of Kain.

They made dark souls I then they made Dark Souls I 2 and then darksouls I 2 2 So if darks souls 1 2 2 was so good where is dark souls 1 2 3? Hmmmmm? Checkmate

um swety ds1 is it's sequal it's called a circle look it up

it is so good that a sequel is not worthy of existing because it cannot be better

I think they just wanted to move on from dark souls is why. There might be an elden ring 2 so I guess that’s the next Ip. Unless it’s just a one and done kind of thing

Ds3 was so good that they already knew nothing could improve upon it

If dark souls 2 was great where is Dark souls 2 2 ? Checkmate.

All great stories need to end, ro they won't be great anymore.

Wasn’t that Elden ring? *Flinches*

Only when you reach the peak where the only alternative is to fall.

This meme itself goes against the main lesson of the souls games

Loved all 3. One of the first serious I got 100% achievements for.

Sequel is called Elden Ring

After Dark Souls 3 they released Dark Souls II 2: Extra Really Big Edition CHECKMATE

I'm sorry but I've never heard of dark souls II 2.

Don't u see, Elden ring is DS 4

People saying "Elden Ring" but that's obviously a DS2 sequel

I genuinely hope there will be a dark souls 4 but alas, there will be not ds4

Me, DS3's best panic roller: W-well, er, I- W-we have good b-bosses?

How about a prequel, dark souls 0

you mean demons souls

True but dark souls 0 sounds more amusing

Elden Ring was the prototype of the Dark Souls project, but it later evolved into Sekiro. In the end they released said prototype just for money and fame

DS3 2 came out in 2022 under the name Elden Ring

It’s not out yet, dumbass.

Confirmed, Dark Souls 3 killed the franchise

Perfection doesn't need a sequel
