Hear me out, DS3 is the inferior Souls experience and here's why

-It is the most linear of all the games, even compared to DaS2's Shrine of Winter
-Nostalgiafag reference pandering out the ass
-Rehashed characters
-Lowest Boss count after DeS with barely 3 decent fights
-Half of said bosses have boring gimmicks
-Boss weapons are unusable shit, despite having 4 games to draw experience from
-Non existant tech or any kind of depth
-Weapons in general are 90% quality build based, don't you even think about leveling STR a single point above DEX
-These quality weapons are also usually the best weapons in their class
-Some weapons have retarded stat requirements where they don't even scale with said stats, which also happens to be quality
-Armor system a horrible imbalanced mess
-The heaviest armors are the heaviest they have ever been in the series, while offering basically no additional defense over medium/light sets
-Poise implemented in such a stupid way that only Greatswords and Maces get the most bang for the buck
-Some UGSs, GAs, and Hammers weigh more than entire armor sets
-Equip load is now done by VIT, which for some reason gives LESS per level than fucking dark souls 2
-Souls required to level up not adjusted for splitting stats into two
-A majority of the small weapons sped up to bloodborne speed, but some of the larger weapons have been made to only abuse hyperarmor in the slowest way possible, no way to speed up things like you could in Dark Souls 2
-No animation skipping made the game give you less movement freedom than DaS2
-Rolls cost next to nothing with extremely fast recovery and huge iframes, pvp duels revolve around rollcatching and NOTHING else
-Magic is garbage
-Faith is garbage
-FP system ruins the flow of battle by forcing you to chug an energy drink like an overweight person being unable to use their fat reserves as energy
-Too many useless fucking stats
-WAs are mostly just special r2s or powerstance moves copypasted with an explosion or two at the end, remember using the powerstance system to cancel the starting attack animations of any of your weapons to draw faster and also chaining powerstance moves into normal r1 combos? Too bad enjoy being locked into a ballerina animation that will 100% of the time get parried
-MLGS is the worst its ever been
-awful soulless covenants
-covenants are stickers which can be changed on the go
-shitty rewards, remember the badass dragon set from das2? fuck you
-Dragon form the worst its ever been in both aesthetic and practical sense
-community now filled with normies who hold hands with their SL 800 Friends to get through the game
-invaders have the most disadvantage compared to all other games in the series because now fromsoft caters to videogame journalists
-First DLC was a 1.5 hour long disappointment with a rehashed arena
-Second DLC had a generic ambiguous ending despite being the very last dark souls thing we'll ever get to see for the forseeable future
