And all of that don't matter if your twitch skill are high or low. Combat resolution is entirely dependent on player input not stats. In a lot of shooters you have all the stats you mention, but that doesn't make them RPGs.

I love how every one of you rpg dogmatists loves to mention that dark souls combat isnt popamole but fails to logically connect how that makes it "not rpg." It's almost like its a personal vendetta against skill instead of an actual coherent argument.
I knew if I mentioned this, all of the closet codex popamolers would come from hiding trying to reclaim their ground.
Dark Souls isnt an rpg. Its a fucking action game.
Yeah, Dark Souls is an action game where the RPG elements are there to customize your character and make the game easier. Killing everything with starting items is extremely doable if a bit tedious. Ultimately, the player's success depends on twitch skill, memorization of boss patterns and only to a lesser extent itemization and meta-game knowledge.
No fuck off war craft 3 is a game with rpg elements, dark souls is an rpg.

Great example there. Warcraft 3 is to strategy games what Dark Souls is to RPGs.
The dice rolls you are clinging to...who is this retard?

Like I said coherent argument or admit your full of shit.
Rpg or not I don’t get the Dark Souls hype. I was thouroughly bored for the 5 minutes I suffered through in that game.

Nice false dichotomy there. I choose option C: Not arguing or discussing with an autistic retard.
We don’t need dicerolls anymore. Lol. Who even talks like that?
Dark Souls is still more of an action game than it is an RPG.
I am done.
Unless they feature turn based action.Sports games. The codex generally hates them.
Yeah OP, not sure where you got the idea that the Codex hates Dark Souls, but that's flat-out not true.
It should though.
Well a lot of codexers do hate it because I see people hating on souls fans constantly. Maybe it is a loud minority.
I thought Bloodborne was better. Same concept, but darker and far more Lovecraftian. The main appeal of the game was the exploration, which was more rewarding because it was challenging. Also, there's a lot of hidden stuff in the game, the story is told subtly, you have to pay attention to details and piece it together etc. It withholds serving the narrative on a platter, which forces you into hunting for all of the details yourself, which feeds into the exploration, which gradually raises more unanswered questions from the narrative. I think Bloodborne absolutely nailed that gaming loop.Rpg or not I don’t get the Dark Souls hype. I was thouroughly bored for the 5 minutes I suffered through in that game.

? That is low iq comparison. War craft 3 is 99.9% rts so comparing to other rts is an rts with .1% of rpg elements. I don't think this works how you think it should lmao. Dark souls has all of the elements of rpg AND replaces popamole combat plaguing most rpgs. Its an evolution of genre away from braindead. You guys are gaming equivalent of reactionaries lol.
If I go to buy a game in the future and dark souls 10 is not listed under rpg section of games and is instead group with doom 10, I will ...
