>>3682>>3682>soulsi agree with the online discussion around those games being insufferable elitism
esp since you know 99% of everyone is full of shit and totally looked everything up on wikis to minmax like faggots
i know i did, openly. much to the chagrin of /v/irginsalso h8d the fashionsouls fags masturbating to their virtual selves for endless threads
that said, i used to have a lot of fun on demons souls online, and ds2 online
1 was ok, but it was mostly just twinking in the forest w the dark wood fag ring, or getting twinked in the forest by the dark wood fag ring ime. and/or giant dad spam
2 was actually rly fun imo, because there was a huge variety of viable PvP builds
plus you could respec. and also some rly fun side covenants that encouraged you to destroy peoples armor/weapons and grief like crazy like the rat king
prolly the only games i ever actually played online for w any regularity
it was a bit obtuse, ill admit, but i think the way that online was implemented in-universe was actually p clever
last time i played any of them was just after demons souls shut down their serbs
shortly thereafter i heard that some ledditors were starting a public community serb and decided to go on and shitpost
thought it was gonna be a bunch of faggots, with a bunch of restrictions and impossible to find a match, but it was the total opposite
there was no level restrictions
at all, not even vanilla and i was getting more matches than i had with the OG serbs, and less lag to boot.
also most were there to shitpost as well, and they had even made some QoL changes like being able to immediately shift client-side world tendencies via soapstone messages
they didnt even get mad about me duping, and id see phantoms doing the same dupe trick all day
never participated in their gay circlejerk leddit or dicksword obv, but all in all it was pleasantly surprising
havent touched my PS3 in like 2yrs so i have no idea if that serb got gayed up, if its still open to the public, or if its even still alive
TL;DRdemons souls had the best community ime
ds2 was fun too due to its large variety of builds
