This game is a technical disaster class

Skill issue.

In this area, you can only go down.
That's like saying Super Mario Bros. sucked because you can only go right and not left.
It is retarded nigger behaviour to be disingenuous and post this.

Hilarious that people who never got to this part or haven't even played it at all still say this.

You just need to move a little closer to the left, newfaggot.

lmao gothic is a decade old game than dark souls and it solved it

>>713466894
People have been making fun of From fanboys for a decade+ because the games are painfully mid.
Obviously, the answer was to create a hugbox.

>>713466872
Unironically kill yourself in the video game called dark souls if you want to go back. Wow. Wasn't that hard, now, was it?

>OP every time he insults a universally beloved game

>>713466735
it can be climbed back up from the bottom

>>713466735
You can actually get back up, if not you would be softlocked if you didn't get the lord vessel. Honestly though its such a pain in the ass to get back up from there you may as well restart the game at that point.

>>713466561 (OP)
Isn't this a 60fps glitch?

>>713466945
It's literally impossible, wannabe oldfag.

>>713467043
Getting so incensed as to deliver death threats over your favorite video game company being mocked is not the epic own you believe it to be.
The word "tendies" springs to mind.

>>713466561 (OP)
Use a homeward bone faggot and stop crying

>>713466561 (OP)
I always assumed this was only because of dsfix
Is this in other versions of the game?

>>713467224
Pfft. Do you know how dark souls works? You die and respawn at a bonfire. I unironically meant in the video game if you're crying so badly because you can't go back. Kill yourself in the game to go back.

>>713467130
no, it's like this on the original console release

>>713467348
What is the Fromslop equivalent of console war threads farming 30+ year old male Nintendo fan tears?

>>713467130
It's not a glitch. You can't go there without the lordvessel(you can be a little further up prior to the fog gate without the lordvessel) . So just keep going or use a homeward bone it's no big deal.

yeah, you need to go further to the left; i've done this route a lot when doing deathless runs for the dragon head stone, pre-patch.

>>713467463
Take your meds, schizo. Or kill yourself if you're still crying that you can't go back to respawn at the last bonfire which you used.

>>713467634
Make a video and show it, it's impossible.
(no mods, pre-patch obviously)

>>713466872
>omg I love DS1, all the areas are interconnected and it all makes sense

Who are you quoting? You're getting teleported after the tutorial. All areas aren't interconnected.

>>713467146
if you jump to the left you can get up, it's more reliable than it looks

>>713467714
"pre-patch" in reference to prior to the dragon head stone being patched, for clarification. anyways, i don't feel like hooking up my ps3, unpatching the game, and jumping through hoops necessary to prove myself right for an irrelevant internet argument.
it's still an issue in the demaster version of the game, though

look, the geometry going up the great hollow is fucky, but it's not some impassable barrier that you can't get around.

???

>>713468874
I love this game but I'll never defend that spot, after you learn the solution to it you just hate it even more because it's so counterintuitive, especially when your first experience in the great hollow is all the branches that feel like they have ice physics.

>>713468874
>we made it look like you can't go there on purpose
that's just dishonest map design

>>713470028
which is ironic because you're the one being dishonest

>>713467130
Yes. You can backstep over it.

i've tried nothing, and i'm all out of ideas

>>713468417
ok egghead

It took me 30 hours in Elden Ring to realize that the Help Button in the menu gives you a description of all the stuff you mouse over.
I had to look up what the difference between Int and Mind and Arcane were because I thought they game just didn't tell you.

>>713472798
It's something you learn in the first souls entry you play, and then retain going forward. I believe it's Select on a gamepad that would allow you to flick through the different stats, and give you a description of them - present since DeS.

>>713473760
Elden Ring IS my first Souls game.
Technicallly 3 was but I only ever got past Iudex.

This is a 60 FPS bug.
It's just bad Japanese coding.

>>713473924
I urge you to go and play ds1, then ds2 and finally ds3
they're all great games worth playing

>walking back instead of rolling back
who the fuck does this

>>713466561 (OP)
this only happens at 60fps which could only be achieved with mods.

>>713468326

Fromdrones will do anything to get out of admitting that their games aren't flawless.

>>713473924
Despite the prior entries not having a jump button, the skills you have learned should be translatable to previous games; once you've beaten one Souls game, the others are much easier.

Dark Souls never was, it had horrible multiplayer and the second half of the game is so unfinished that you can find complete blank white spaces in Lost Izaleth

I had to help a friend out of there, we both started ds1 around the same time and that climb basically killed his motivation to play
I didnt know about the double secret and had no idea what he was talking about until i came over after completing ds1

>>713475983
yeah it was so hated it got several sequels including elden ring one of the most popular games of all time where a formerly obscure and obtuse game studio from japan is now one of the largest in the world. you know, extremely hated game.

>>713475714
It's interesting how many people refuse to use ranged stuff in souls games, im not sure what causes it but it might be something to do with classes in games nowadays
>my guy isn't a bow class so i shouldn't touch them
It's such a safe way to play blind too

>>713468417
it works, but it shouldnt. Youre literally hovering above open air and it just lifts you over the branch

i would recommend watching this video on the subject. i have it timestamped to where it covers the great hollow so you can see for yourself. im sure you guys will hate on this guy for no reason and call him a tranny though just because hes a youtuber linked on /v/, but whatever

still great game with one of the best worlds ever

>>713474727
kek, so basically this >>713468874 was unintended, and there wouldn't be a way up at all without it?
miyazaki should public apologize for this shit.

>>713474918
>>713475576
I plan to, because I love the lore and theming.
I just couldn't git gud until recently.
That and the only other Souls game I own is 3 and I'm not buying the remaster.

>>713473924
you gotta play them all. they are so unique and interesting (even dark souls 2 which sucks in my opinion). sucks you kinda missed out on the peak of online activity though. i would do anything to go back and play DS1 again with my brother for the first time where we were discovering the world together back in 2012 where we would take turns playing on the same account. invaluable memory.

>>713468417
retards will think this is an own

>>713468417
>glitchy jump that has you sliding around an invisible wall until you hit a part without a collision mesh
>necessary because making your character lift his foot a couple inches is too hard to program
Incompetent map design and mechanics. Amazing what bad development is given a free pass just because the "PREPARE TO DIE" marketing worked.

>>713477909
DaS1+2 is slow enough for grandpa to play. You don't need to git gud at all and predict a 10 hit combo just so you can trade one hit in. It's merely methodical. This is how they are supposed to be played.

>oh this one dies to lightning
>that one can be drop cleaved?
>don't hit the boss, but that little thing, gotcha

Souls before SekiBorne are piss easy now. Just gotta deal with hitboxes and arenas at worst.

>>713475983
you have brain damage

Its a pretty bad game. I can appreciate the amount of thought put into it, but its blatantly unfinished and clunky as fuck. The bosses are forgettable and either easy as fuck or hard because of their design flaws. DS 1 was a solid yet deeply flawed foundation later games expanded upon.

Sekiro > Elden Ring > Bloodborne > DS I > DS III > DS II

From truly shines when it makes non-DS games.

>>713478937
You're missing the point.

Older souls games were never really meant to be hard. They were "hard" to people who didn't pay attention and didn't play carefully. DS2 is filled with more attempts to try and fuck you over but it's still all pretty manageable. Those games still have some jank that can kill you here and there but the goal wasn't "how can we rape the player the most?"

Even BB felt more fair, it's really only beast enemies that go super crazy with their attacks but they can also be hitstunned with basic attacks or easily parried. Most of the beast bosses can be exploited with big weaknesses that the levels prepare you for USUALLY.

I really think it's DS3 where shit got really bad, fromsoft was no longer interested in designing a challenge that felt methodical and puzzle-like, they just threw you at enemies with a ton of attacks, delays, and AI that "adapted" to your positioning making it repeated trial and error until you finally learned enough of the bosses attack timings and adaptive strings to beat it properly. It's not interesting as a result and it's not fair. You're literally using the same moveset you've had since DeS but with a jump button added and a special move for your weapon. This is not enough to make combat interesting and it's certainly not enough to allow players to keep up with the retard ninja bosses who have no sense of weight

>>713479673
I literally read the first sentence and then skipped to your ranking. Thanks for making it clear you're a mongoloid.

>>713480185
>I literally read the first sentence

That's really the key idea here. Dark souls is a bad game. And no amount of nostalgia shilling will change this.

>>713475964
this but unironically

>>713466735
You're dumb lol!!!!!!

No I learned that from Armored Core.

>>713479673
>DS1 is a pretty bad game despite being a solid foundation later games expanded upon
>said later non-ds games that are rated better are closer in design to DS3 which is rated lower than DS1
Make it make sense.

You don't even have to jump, you can just hug that part of the ledge and walk up.

Explain this to me

retard

>>713481251
Differing standards for the time they were made
The fact that Dark Souls 1 wasn't terrified the player might wander off the amusement park line and have a bad time was revolutionary for the time period

>>713481618
Because most dark souls players skip large portions of the game. Run past encounters, cheese strong enemies, and feel entitled to fight a boss with a full tank.
Dark Souls 2 says fuck you, the level is part of the game, you can't skip it, and learning how to fight X encounter or Y strong enemy efficiently is part of the boss fight.

>>713481618
>Explain this to me
DS1 was fucking amazing and people will bend over backwards to defend it
Meanwhile they played 10 minutes of DS2, realized iframes were tied to the agility substat(which to be fair, IS a bad decision), quit the game and hate it instead of just throwing a couple levels into adaptability/Attunement and have to try and find reasons to hate it besides admitting that they got filtered by the first 20 minutes of a game.
>Uh actually the elevator going from a mountain to volcano is a really big deal and ruins the game. No, Lordran being a big tree house is not the same thing, shut up!

>>713481870
>wander off the amusement park line and have a bad time was revolutionary for the time period
But are you ranking it higher soley for it being revolutionary for its time or also because its a good design choice? Sekiro and Bloodborne are much more linear and they are rated high.

>>713482083
>uh ACHTULLY I played the whole game and it was unplayable!!!!11!!
yeah, I'm sure hate playing a game had nothing to do with how much fun you had with it

>>713475605
literally just search the image, retard

>>713474727
I wanna watch this dude's videos but, holy shit, I hate listening to his voice.

I can't imagine playing Dark Souls with no fucking jump button. It's why I've never gone back and tried them. That's literal 2010 beige modern warshooter shit.

>>713483206
Yeah, honestly it's hard to go back after playing Elden Ring.

They came up with a good concept that was underdeveloped and flawed as fuck. Later games made it better. DS III is almost on the same level as DS I, but just lacks the love love and effort they had put into DS I, yet is better in every other way. ER, Sekiro, BB are all infinitely better than DS I. Its not even a competition.

>>713485750
Meant for >>713481251

>>713484357
Why would you go back to an inferior game after playing a superior one? DS I is not even hard, it just fucks with your time and is too clunky to enjoy.

>>713484357
I can still go back to it but it has to be with specific builds and weapons. It's torture trying to use almost any weapon class that isn't a sword, or magic other than pyromancies. Some of those movesets are just grossly underdeveloped. I don't even know how they fucked it up when Demon's Souls had proper movesets for hammers and greathammers.

>>713466561 (OP)
That mechanic felt like shit even in 2011 but it didn’t really matter
