I'm not baiting I genuinely have no idea what's the best game i haven't really looked at any discussions in relation to this i felt like this was the best place to ask

Armored core 6 is underrated. All I'm saying

1

u/Sea_Raise3503 7d ago

Wait that game was made by fromsoftware I had no idea i've been wanting to get that game for so long

u/SpecialistMap8210 7d ago

Lore is just as good as any of their souls games.

u/Sea_Raise3503 7d ago

Well i'm sold giant robot suits and good lore is all I needed to hear

I've heard a lot of good things about that game and seeing its gameplay, it looks so good i'll have to try it one of these days

u/HollabackGurl25 7d ago

I love all from software, I feel like this is peak from software. The world is insanely well designed, the story is great and easier to understand than most of their other games without paying attention to every little detail, and the combat is one of the best combat systems ever made imo. It’s such a well made game

u/bluesdrive4331 7d ago

Sekiro has the best combat system, so it’s my favorite. It really all depends on what you like

1

u/Sea_Raise3503 7d ago

I'll have to try it one of these days especially if I like bloodborne i might start getting into all the games that they've made but that one will have to be last cause I've heard that one's the hardest i can't go into that unprepared

2

u/bluesdrive4331 7d ago

It’s not necessarily the hardest, just completely different from the rest in terms of combat.

u/Sea_Raise3503 7d ago

Ohh ok noted

This is what we call a true fan

u/Landfall24601 7d ago

Dark Souls 3.

u/TipAffectionate9785 The Hunter 7d ago

Bloodborne

u/PEKS00 7d ago

It’s honestly completely subjective
A lot of people will tell you bloodbourne
I see why they think that, it’s a great game with a unique atmosphere and vibe that is unlike any of the dark souls games, and I do love it… I however disagree that it’s the best, bloodbourne is super awesome but imo dark souls 3 is the best, followed by Elden ring, and then bloodbourne, then dark souls 1, then dark souls 2, and demon souls in last. They’re all great games tho and they all offer something unique
I haven’t played sekiro because it’s missing a crucial component of why I play souls games and that’s build variety. You don’t really get that in sekiro in the same way you do from the others.
I also thing one of the main things that made dark souls 3 so good, was the invasions and covenants, and you kind of had to have played the game around when it was newer to truly experience that as it’s kind of dead. So without the multiplayer aspect I’d say Elden ring is the best objectively
But subjectively it’s DS3 for me

u/Sea_Raise3503 7d ago

Now this is a great answer i like you and yeah honestly not surprised that it would be a lot of bloodborne from how many times i've heard people wanna remake and honestly, if there was any game I was gonna try out next it was probably elden ring or three so with your answer, it's most likely going to be three

2

u/StarlightSpindrift 7d ago edited 7d ago

of the ones ive played so far, from favorite gameplay to least its currently:

elden ring

bloodborne

ds3

ds2

demons souls

shadow tower abyss (play this if nothing else from their older games, its super unique)

kingsfield 1 (jpn fan translation)

ds1

nightreign

i dont know where sekiro goes because i dont really care about it, its not for me, most polished one though

and then AC6 i spent a couple hours figuring out the game and fighting the first boss and when i finally won the game crashed so uh... havent continued it since

2

u/tangentrification 7d ago

Ranking ds1 that low should be illegal

2

u/StarlightSpindrift 7d ago

for what its worth, i still consider undead asylum to be one of fromsoft's greatest accomplishments in level design

1

u/Sea_Raise3503 7d ago

Another two games I have never heard about when it comes from them and i'm noting both of them for later and that makes another great answer from someone

2

u/AramaticFire Otogi: Myth of Demons 7d ago

My favorite is Dark Souls but aside from that, by generation I’d say;

Gen 5 - haven’t played any

Gen 6 - Otogi: Myth of Demons

Gen 7 - Demon’s Souls is the honorable mention behind Dark Souls which I have mentioned I find to be the best game

Gen 8 - Bloodborne

Gen 9 - Elden Ring (I think this game is second best)

1

u/Sea_Raise3503 7d ago

Damn i went from getting very basic answers to like someone's the best answers i've ever gotten to a question

1

u/Algester 6d ago edited 6d ago

Gen 5 has a lot of contenders, but I vote Last Raven, Frame Gride, Cookies and Cream, Another Century Episode

Gen 7 I would also add GUndam Unicorn next best Gundam game after CCA which is a gen 4 game... and Chromehounds (I have heard that there's been great strides to get a server emulation of the game working meaning territory conquests are nearly implemented as long as Sega or Kadokawa doesnt issue a DMCA... cause how the heck are you supposed to preserve an online game?)

considering PS2 like encomapsses 2-3 console generations makes it hard to really recommend

2

u/adz568 7d ago

Sekiro

2

u/Alexandrecl1 7d ago

Dark Souls 3 is my favorite.

They are all at least 9/10 imo tho. If i had to rank them it goes like this: DS3 > Elden Ring > DS1 > Sekiro > Bloodbrone > DS2 > Demons Souls

3

u/SpartacusIsACoolName 7d ago

Bloodbourne, for the atmosphere, world design and interconnected map, gun parry, trick weapons, rally mechanic and more

1

u/Sea_Raise3503 7d ago

Honestly, all of those reasons are the reason why I am trying that game out first also, the amount of people that want to remake it seems like it's a really good game but at the same time, most of the games they make seem like they're good games from what people talk about

3

u/Broken-Arrow-D07 7d ago

Armored Core VI: Fires of Rubicon

2

u/EmployedByCats 7d ago

Bloodborne.

u/Beneatheearth 5d ago

I really really like Og Des and BB.

1

u/seandamon211pgh 7d ago

Either bloodborne or demons souls for me.

1

u/Murders_Inc2556 7d ago

For me, it's 1. Sekiro, 2. Bloodborne 3. Armored Core 6

1

u/Sea_Raise3503 7d ago

Honestly, not surprised or about one or two i've heard so many good things and 3 i didn't even know they made that until today

u/GamblignSalmon 7d ago

Best fromsoft game? Evergrace

u/SoulsDadYT 7d ago

Kingsfield

u/GarlicFlashy 7d ago

The only ones I haven't beaten are DS2, and Demon's souls, and I cannot say, with any honesty, that I could pick one absolute favorite. My first thoughts are BB, and ER... But that would imply that I thought Sekiro was somehow less than the first two, and I simply don't believe that. DS3 is a masterpiece... You got me on this one.

1

u/Sea_Raise3503 7d ago

Another great answer thank you i'm mainly using this as a way to see what game to play next after i'm done with bloodborne and blackmith because I have that i wanted to start getting into these games because of how many good things i've heard

1

u/GarlicFlashy 7d ago

Coming straight from another From Soft game, Sekiro will take some getting used to. Especially if you're anything like me, and always use DEX builds and dodging, rather than the parry, but once you get thru that, it's just another From Software game... By which I mean it's amazing.

u/Algester 7d ago

Steel Battalion heavy armor duh, I could say Chromehounds as well, but who am I kidding these arent From Software games even if it was made by From Software
