>Yes it is. Blocking is mediocre
No it's not. You are just a retard who believes blocking should work in complete isolation and simply allow you to sit and negate any kind of aggression instead of using it as the proper tool to manage and stand up to fights and cause stagger
>Even end game bosses like twin princes, the demons, nameless king, gael, and SoC are just dodge, hit, dodge, hit, with no thought or skill required other than basic timing.
You posted a series of bosses that cast multiple spells and have area of effect attacks, you are so full of shit

Why did you deflect to how hard or easy to use the UGS is? Where your gameplay of going up to Lothric Knights and pressing R1 with a curved sword?

>Armor is dogshit in all 3 games for PvE,
Nope
Only Dark Souls 2 has worthless armor
>DS3 is the truly dogshit game because there's basically no difference between weapons. It's either fast+good damage (straight sword), or garbage. Anything heavy blows ass
Not even close. Heavy weapons in Dark Souls 3 can actually stagger enemies and hitstun resist.
Everything you said applies to Dark Souls 2, where even if you stun enemies, their hitstun is so brief they would attack you before
>rollslop
The only rollslop game is Dark Souls 2. Tanking and blocking are viable playstyles eslewhere and a meme challenge run in Dark Souls 2

Dark Souls armor damage reduction sucks major ass and comes to a point of doing near nothing.In Dark Souls 3 even a light armor set with 20 Vitality gives you more damage reduction than Havel set in Dark Souls
