"i want to play a soulsborne game" "which one?" "yes"

[@broccolin]

In my opinion, Archthrones is the best Soulsborne overhaul mod to date, with immersion and atmosphere much more in mind than other mods. The demo is around 1/5 of the full mod. It seems one of its goals is to connect it better to the previous souls games in terms of the lore and in a way, make more of a faithful sequel.

[@BasedDocumentarian]

You're not fooling anyone, dev team.

[@broccolin]

@@BasedDocumentarian Huh

[@maoribrotha53]

More faithful sequel lol.

[@broccolin]

@@maoribrotha53 Yes, DS3 was very unconnected.

[@maoribrotha53]

@@broccolin The mod has stuff from Bloodborne, Sekiro and Elden Ring lol. Original DS3 is definitely more connected to the series.

[@spiritrunner76]

This mod looks - very much - like a Prequel effort. The lands are still somewhat divided, hence the archstones. But ruin has not set in yet. the winged corvians are white-feathered and more human. The giant knights are untarnished. Lots of details just scream things are younger and more or less 'in their prime'. I suspect this story will be about the building of the firelink shrine rather than re-awakening its use.

[@coaxialsynapse]

That would be a really cool origin story but it seems more like Dark Souls 2 where everything is loosely inspired, feels kind of out of touch - unless that was the intention in which case it's just original.

[@broccolin]

Their description is a little bit misleading. If it were set before the events of DS3 there would be several discrepancies and overlaps, so it's more like a remake while being set back in the timeline.

i love Heide's boss, he's voiced by Vaati and pulls something no other boss in Dark Souls does: He stops holding back when his health runs out and instakills you.

[@patrickbarrio101]

the audio needs some work though lol his voice lines sound like he's actively narrating over your fight as if he was talking in a youtube video.

Vaatis voice acting isnt really good, like at all. Its so bad.

[@milktenders6219]

Their firelink looks way more beautiful than the actual DS3 one, DS3 really drained all the color from the game, and I’m not a fan of the dingy aesthetic it had. Nice to see the archthrones team agreed the game needs color

[@1r0zz]

I never understood how people can criticise “color” of games unless they does not allow a smooth gameplay experience. It’s their vision and it looks narratively coherent. Also, everybody hated DS2 because it was too colorful…

[@DooDoo-f4v]

News flash cum drinker. DS3 is the end of the timeline. That means all of reality itself is fading and dying out. Even the color.

[@plantnt489]

this mod made me realize how much stamina sekiro bosses have, fighting them without parrying looks so much harder

The mod is incredible. Totally digging it and thankful for the modding community. The narrator of the intro reminds me of War's voice from Darksiders

[@coaxialsynapse]

I think the writing could be a bit better; some of the names are kinda funky, and I am not really a fan of dual bossfights either, but it's really cool and it shows what is possible and will be possible knowing this project is still in the works.

[@michaelhodges8590]

This mod does look pretty good but man are some of those bosses just lacking any good windows to attack in. Like that Phoenix is a rest of patience with the constant attacks and tiny reprisal windows

[@daftpunkfan15]

Random thought but I think it's neat that From and Bandai are seemingly ok with fan projects like this unlike certain other companies....

[@Zeldafand]

I feel many Dark souls like games and mods seem to miss what made the souls games actually work. Especially in this instance, having Sekiro enemies in DS3 is a fundamentally flawed idea simply because the enemies were designed with Sekiro's mechanics in mind. Multiple parries of rapid attacks to eventually break poise and go in for a fatal strike. you can't really do that in DS3 so the fact they have so many Sekiro enemy movesets is not a smart idea. They are far too quick for the intended mechanics. In a way, they're only scary because they are broken for a DS3 engine. Additionally they seem to think Difficulty for Difficulty sake is the way to go but in reality, the DS games are only hard if you don't know what you're doing.

[@bladechild2449]

I mean I agree that Souls copiers do tend to get balancing way wrong. Even Lies of P gets it horribly wrong and is probably the best of the bunch. But with this Mod they get a little leeway because they're intentionally supplying it to a hardcore fanbase, and there is a sense of "what if sekiro bosses in Dark Souls" about it that most people are happy to grapple with. And let's not pretend FROM don't get it wrong either. Demon of Hatred is literally a Bloodborne dodge paced boss in Sekiro, the parry game. And Elden Ring is full of bosses that feel like they aren't attuned to the stamina base system essentially copied from DS3. A lot of them don't reward you with openings and just keep on going, and you don't have much of a way to stop them in their tracks, beyond stunning them with overpowered jumping attacks.

[@yikes6969]

i would love to try this mod. they put more effort than activision does with code and even more than Blizzard did to Overwatch. (i just wish it was in elden ring for convenience reasons)

[@Cooperal]

Funny thing. For a long time now I've dreamt of a convergence project, wishing for what was essentially a remake of DS1 and DS2 that is engineered with DS3s mechanics where coop/pvp multiplayer overlaps and a single character can choose to migrate between Lordran, Drangleic or Lothric after each playthrough to continue finding new gear (fashion) and spells exclusive to those worlds. You can warp back to the worlds where you have already defeated the final boss to clean up anything missed (including progressing it to NG+) but you need to complete the world that you are on to unlock another world of your choosing. Picture it. One minute you are fighting through the Upper Undead Burg, next you are being summoned as a very otherworldly helper in the Forest of Fallen Giants or the High Wall of Lothric. You can go help the Mirror Knight in DS2 but also continue your duty as a Spear of the Church. The whole thing with parallel universes colliding in this franchise helps it fit.

[@RelaxingNostalgia]

what ds3 mechanics exactly? ds3 literally has zero mechanics that are original to it. every single mechanic it has is either copied from ds2, or demons souls.

[@Cooperal]

@@RelaxingNostalgia You read it wrong. I didn't say anything about 'original' mechanics to DS3. It is impossible to play the trilogy without recognising that their mechanics are not implemented the same, so my suggestion is that they would primarily balance the old around the new. You wouldn't take a character with DS1 poise and put them in the same multiplayer environment as characters with DS3 poise. You also wouldn't strip features like weapon arts and charged strong attacks from DS3 just because DS1&2 didn't have them. But you also wouldn't force DS1 and DS3 players to level adaptability, so for those sorts of reasons I suggested DS3 as the baseline. Think before you type.

[@DonutSwordsman]

the voice acting would sound less weird if it had echo to the room like all video games

[@H0und0fHircin3]

[@smartmouthriveria]

He’s way more of a hardcore game than I thought because would’ve deleted the shit out of that game after that one boss. Good job

[@ayonmetar2301]

It weirds me out that I needed to see Sekiro bosses' movesets being shield parried to realize that making an entire game about parrying everhing with a Katana is the most unpractical idea. Katanas are way less sturdy than medieval western weapons (and shields of course) and dull/chip fairly quickly when parrying attacks with them. Never thought about that while playing Sekiro because my monkey brain was satisfied with it looking cool.
