Dumbfuck!
They are all bad overrated garbage.
If only greatswords worked like that in DS.The best Souls game is Berserk on PS2.
Nioh alone has better combat, better stats & skills system and better crafting system than most of the crap discussed around these here parts nowadays.I thought all jap made rpg-likes go in jrpg forum - no matter the sub-genre. What's this thread still doing in RPG discussions ?

DS1 had by far the best world building I have seen in a 3D game. Gameplay; DS3 is by far the best.
Bloodborne combat is too dull, and too fast, with far too few options in terms of weapons/equipment

Depends on what you mean "gameplay". DS3 is the pretties, smoothest and mechanically most advanced. But it's dumb, dull, repetitive, without any spark, soul or original idea. I'll take the older, clumsier and far more magical DeS or DS1 any day.
The boss fights in DS3 are by far the best of the whole action 3D genre of hitting shit until it dies.
DaS3 bosses are all about being cheap and they abused the "boss has 9 lives" gimmick way more than they should have.I can not think of a single game in the genre that has challenged me in ways that weren't cheap
Bloody irrelevant. People have killed the Dancer at level 1, naked without dodging.I think the Dancer is a tough boss to beat when you first approach her around level 10
If you stumbled upon the Dancer at level 10 on your first run, you are either metagaming or a psychopath that murders any NPC they encounter, both irrelevant to the actual quality of the fight or of the game. Hell, I would even say that bringing up the Dancer is actually shitting on DaS3 because what could've been a beautiful sequence break ends up being a nothingburger. You can't just say fuck it, kill the Dancer and skip straight to the castle like you could with the Master Key in DaS1 or just paying the toll and skipping having to kill all the big bads in DaS2.
Fighting big fella with big stick in different custom repeatedly gets tiresome.
