  1. Elex probably has some of the worst melee combat out of any game I have ever played. I mean, Elex has the worst combat in any game I have ever played. But in the Context of Elex it really doesn't bother me. Of course, objectively, DS2 is just outright better. But like, Elex is also shit in general so like... I don't really know how to put this. Complaining out melee combat in Elex is like complaining about melee combat in Minecraft or something like that. Prolly no the best way to put it, but that's the best I can do. But like if I had to play Elex with a melee build or DS2 with a melee build right this instant, I'd just go with Elex because halfway through the game you'll just stunlock all enemies anyway so it doesn't matter how shit it is when you can't even get hurt.
  2. It is not an overstatement. Dark Souls 2 is literally the only game I have ever used magic in. Melee is literally that bad that. I would rather not use melee at all and use magic and I hate using magic. Of course, I still beat DS2 twice while using melee, but for the third and final run I just became a caster because there was no way I could stomach another run of melee. I hate it. It is awful. It does feel like shit. In every game (aside from sekiro) I have built my character exactly the same. I always go with a quality build using a Halberd and Greatsword. There are only two times I haven't done that. In DS1 on a PvP Dex build, and in DS2 because I had to switch to magic or else I wouldn't have been able to suffer through it a third time. It isn't an overstatement. I don't even think DS2 is a good game in its own right. Also, Adaptability changes nothing for Melee weapon attacks. You can't really make the game play close to how you want it. I mean it increases iframes and other things but doesn't do anything when it comes to hitting enemies with a melee weapon. More iframes are good of course, but rolling isn't attacking. Adaptability Information Attribute governing defense and agility. Boosts poison resist and bleed resist. Raises poison bonus Raises poison, bleed, petrify, curse resistance Raises Agility Raises Poise Slightly increases HP for each point: +2 HP (0-20), +1 HP (21-50), +0 HP (51-99) The soft cap for adaptability appears to be at 39. Using healing items becomes faster (This only applies to Lifegem, Estus Flask, and Divine Blessing) Shield raising speed increases slightly (Needs to be further tested) The Bandit begins with the lowest Adaptability at 3 and the Explorer starts with the highest Adaptability at 12. Adaptability 3-10 gives 2 points of Agility, 10-20 gives 7 points, 20-30 gives 8 points, 30-40 is 7 points, 40-99 is 7 points. Agility reaches its softcap at 110, regardless of how much is gained from attunement or adaptability. The numbers shown are for investment in agility before this specific number is met. See our Stat Calculators page for an agility calculator. Raising adaptability yields a greater number of invincibility frames during a roll, but does not actually change the animation You can read more on all stats here Stats | Dark Souls 2 Wiki DARKSOULS2.WIKI.FEXTRALIFE.COM Stats is a stat in Dark Souls. Stats effects, scaling, equipment and tips for Dark Souls 2. So, there is no stat allocation in DS2 that actually changes the way melee weapons attack. Those videos are perfectly fine in displaying the difference. It doesn't matter how much STR, DEX, or any other stat you have. They don't change any of the gameplay I am talking about.
  3. I mean, no matter what build you do, melee still feels like total shit imo. It never feels as good as any of the other titles. And heavier? No way. Every single thing in DS2 feels lighter and oiled up. Like it is artificially smooth. I mean, I don't know how much of each title you have played, but DeS, DaS, BB, DaS3, and Sekiro all feel extremely similar and DaS2 is extremely noticeably different than the others. I say this as some who has beaten every one of the titles I have mentioned at least 3 times except for DeS.
  4. Like, the difference in the way melee weapons feel of so apparent you can visually see the difference. Based of sight alone you can tell they would feel different.
  5. No. I borrowed SOTFS and couldn't stand it. I know some people can't feel the difference but it is totally different to me. It is far more like a Lords or the Fallen or one of those generic souls-clones. I mean, you can even see it. I'll post some videos in a sec
  6. I just hate the way melee feels in DS2. Like imagine if RDR2's "realistic" movement was transferred into Melee Combat. That is what DS2 achieved and I hate it. Feels like crap.

  9. neither ugly fuckin chodes
  10. As someone how can't stand JoJo (because of the fans) I would need to know how powerful Stands really are. Devil Fruits have a weakness in that you can't be submerged in water. And while there are a very wide range of Devil Fruits, Haki also exists which is also kind of a mental power and Haki can let non Fruit-eaters fight against people who have consumed a Devil Fruit. So, with Stands being something of a psychic energy, do they automatically counter Devil Fruit?
  11. Wordle 228 6/6 ⬛⬛⬛⬛⬛ ⬛⬛⬛⬛🟩 ⬛⬛⬛🟩🟩 ⬛⬛🟩🟩🟩 ⬛🟩🟩🟩🟩 🟩🟩🟩🟩🟩 I wonder if there was a way get all the black tiles to yellow and still keep the pattern.
  12. Reach is shit and was the start of the end. It was the CoD-ification of the series. If you are talking about Single Player then that's fine, but when I talk of Halo it is about the MP. Reach was bad. The Maps were bad. The new weapons were bad. All of the armor abilities, including sprint, were bad.
  13. You don't even have facts yet act like your word is the only correct word. Others in this thread have already said what could be said and you still say the dumbest shit. You aren't open to discussion. You are only open to your thoughts being the correct ones.
  14. Some of the most loathed decisions that were made to Destiny 2 were done after Bungie split for Activision. At least that is my recollection. I remember people saying how Bungie, once freed from their irons, showed who was really at fault for making the games have shitty elements.
  15. Wordle 227 1/6 🟩🟩🟩🟩🟩 Wow, I am so smart and totally didn't get 227 and 228 spoiled for me
  16. Biggie in the closet with the candle stick
  17. I keep seeing people saying Sony is buying Capcom but I can't find any proof of that.
