So I Tried Dark Souls Archthrones.. It Feels Like Dark Souls 4!

[@JustJustKen]

THIS IS A MOD?! Holy. If somebody told me this is a Dark Souls DLC, I would absolutely believe them. That quality for a mod is astounding.

Hey Spicy, not sure if you've found out yet, but there's a fifth bell to ring, which summons a boss at that black smoke you were wondering about.

[@itsSpicyGaming]

Found that out yesterday, that boss is brutal haha

[@lloydirving6209]

wow, I'm surprised how much stuff they took from demon's souls for this, wasn't expecting that at all. pretty cool

Been having a blast with this even with some of them difficult being a little difficult. Farmed a bunch of large titanite shards and today I will see how much of a difference those bosses feel at +6 instead of +3.

Where did you find the large titanite shards? I need them so bad

[@ColtonGamingTV]

@@itsSpicyGaming Sorry for not replying, KZbin typically informs me when someone responds to my comments but to answer your question, (although late) in the area past in the Ivory Tower in Eleum Loyce there are enemies that can be farmed for large titanite.

He was truly a powerhouse of a monster when he got called to link the first flame by his peoples.

I am only 4:22 in and I already in love with this mod, I don’t have a PC but this will be my soul reason to build one, when or if I get one built I’ll come back to this video and update. I’ll cut the video short so I don’t spoil myself but damn this looks bad ass af I’ll see you in a few months when I start playing this mod. Thanks for the video!!!!! See yall then

[@alenezi989a3]

I just started the Video, it looks promising, the problem I usually have with these mods like Convergence, is that they increase difficulty waaaay too much, were normal enemies suddenly have insane attacks and literal nukes for spells, I really hope the difficulty is comparable atleast to DS3 without too much crazy effects and what not.

[@Doogmeistaa]

God damn! I need to redownload dark souls 3. This looks crazy.

[@ЛеонардБолотов]

As much as i appreciate gigantic work done towards art direction and general modding/modeling done with adding all of this, the mod feels like it wasn't playtested before demo launch by even devs themselves Its unreasonably painful to play, out of every possible boss, the only reasonable one is golem because his moveset isn't too crazy, and 2 bloodborne boss reskins, but then you literally get 2 crucible knights boss, godskin boss, GREAT OWL BOSS (that damages you a lot with his kick btw), sekiro assasin with Isshin attacks and most importantly Sekiro Monk boss which is mandotary to get +4 and more btw, you only get large titanites after her. idk, it also doesn't feel expanding on souls mechanics as much as it is trying to, well, add everything other games had into DS3 and see if it works. Elden ring reuses a lot of animations from previous games, but enemies also get their own movesets up to those old moves, like fire monks getting smough jump or leyndell knights being lightning infused warriors.

[@adjuax]

Make a bunch of original movesets and expanding mechanics? These are just modders they don't have a budget of millions💀

[@ЛеонардБолотов]

@@adjuax What so if i dont like how it works out? Even then, im not asking for creating new movesets, my main problem is how difficult it is non-mechanically, and that makes it so all of this is known enemies that are unfair. Its the enemies i've beaten many times and now they are just not pleasant to fight.

[@willvan7685]

@@ЛеонардБолотов honestly I feel like they should have slowed down the sekiro animations so that they can actually be dodge rolled without inhuman reactions and spacing.

[@lilramennoodle8056]

@@ЛеонардБолотов then go co-op, this is a mod, not some triple A gaming developers, its like having a friend doing stuff and then you're gonna go and criticize its not the real thing. stop being out of your mind about it, you are not forced to play this as an actual souls game

[@ЛеонардБолотов]

​@@lilramennoodle8056 then stop defending mod with "its not AAA gaming dev" literally every defence of this mod comes down to "they are just modders". Im criticizing mod for what it is, if mod sucks to play, what should i do about it? Just stay "ah its just a mod i shouldn't care about it" or actually look into fundamental problems this mod has and how they played out for me? Im not making negative comments like "devs should commit obtaining dark sigils", im geniuanly disappointed in how it played out in demo. I think mod will be in much better state if it gets tweaked numerically at least, but also amount of reused animations from sekiro on bosses (or bloody crucible knights) doesn't make mod that great, well, in my opinion, hopefully people will find it interesting for themselves when mod is done.

[@spiderjerusalem100]

This looks excellent, i'm downloading DS3 again right now to give it a try. The difficulty does look a bit "Dark Souls is hard lol" but i hope it isn't like that once i get in to it.

[@itsSpicyGaming]

Difficulty got better after I found some upgrades. Smithing stones were hard to come by but they've since patched a lot more items in and balanced bosses better. Definitely worth a playthrough!

Mods for DS3 breathes tons of new life into DS3 for me. My first time playing through DS3, I honestly didn't care too much for it. I recognize how 'good' of a game it is, but I had a lot of sticking points which makes the experience not very fun for me. Convergence gave me back that sense of entertainment and fun I was missing from DS3. I hope Archthrones does the same when it fully comes out or however.
