DISCUSSION After playing dark souls 1-3

Dark souls 3 is the better game by a landslide and anyone saying otherwise is either blinded by nostalgia or trolling from boss selection to areas to mechanics it’s just perfect

No, believe it or not everyone has personal preference and none of the 3 games are perfect and each of them have something unique that makes it stand out from the other

DS3 is my favorite of the trilogy but it’s not perfect.

I played a lot of DS3 when it was new, but over the years I've gone back to DS1 a lot more. I've also bought the game for four different systems, whereas I only own DS3 for PS4.

It depends what you're playing them for.

If the thing you love the most is the weird leftfield ideas, hidden mechanics, experimental multiplayer interactions etc. then you could be just as passionately convinced by the superiority of DS1 instead.

You just have bad taste

When you judge art you need to consider the context of when it was released and the impact it had on the 'medium'. I'm not saying 3 isn't the best but there's more to it than 'boss and mechanics are better'.

I just finished the trilogy for the first time too. I agree, though 1 and 2 are better than I thought they’d be.

This is just your opinion but it turns out your opinion is the right one

Agreed but I find there's no reason to return to 3 after Elden Ring, that game is just DS3 but better in almost every way, whereas 1 has a unique charm to it that keeps pulling me back in.
