>I have never played a dark souls game

Why all the hate? Can someone fill me in on this?
Elden Ring Hate?
Blake Perez
Ethan Perry
Shitposters.
You are on Any Forums. Did you expect any different?
Isaac Ward
I mean this is a bit different.
Just constant negativity, and no saying the reason why.
Charles Carter
Unironically d*scord trannies.
Hunter Robinson
Coordinated discordtranny shitposting
They're the same group posting all the anti-Sony/Snoy threads as well
Jacob Wood
It’s just a discord raid counter meme. People with no life who want to get easy (YOU)’s. Elden Ring is basically the biggest game of the year so it stands to reason there would be anti shills.
Dylan Foster
A lot of us have realized that it's way more satisfying to see a hyped game fail than play it, even if it lives up to the hype. Many people on here don't even play games any more, just talk about everything surrounding vidya and cackling at TORtanics like CP2077.
Chase Lee
Manmade horrors beyond your comprehension.
The "negativity" you see is literally a discord of 10~ people who turned hating on Elden Ring into their day job.
Benjamin Allen
Souls games are very popular now and with Elden Ring being open world its popularity has reached critical mass. From Software is now officially a mainstream blockbuster (if not quite AAA) developer.
Levi Jackson
fucking everything is tortanic to these niggers. quite literally everything is destined to fail apparently
Xavier Nguyen
They even have "shitposting guidelines"
Landon Cox
How is it even possibly to be this deranged?
Liam Morgan
Trannies being trannies, no father figure, estrogen in the water, calcified pineal gland, the likes
Parker Wilson
Jesus, imagine having this kind of free time.
Dominic Powell
Really looking forward to Elden Ring, Any Forumsros. It's almost here.
Hope the invasions aren't too fucked.
Lincoln Price
Any Forums hivemind doesn't actually play vidya. just posts all day. maybe they enjoyed video games once in their life but now they're just pessimistic autists. zero personality beyond hating everyone and being a walking meme dictionary.
Samuel Anderson
This is just fucking sad
Noah James
Fromsoft fans were the most divided they've ever been.
>demon's souls boomers vs demon's souls remake "zoomers"
>dark souls 2 enjoyers vs dark souls 3 enjoyers
>nu-fromsoft sekiro cuhrayzee immigrants
>bloodborne chads enduring 7 years of post nut clarity
>"dark souls 1 is an adventure game, not an action game" and the opposite
>"sotfs is inferior to vanilla ds2" meta autistics
>lorefag grifters (pic related)
Then suddenly, shazam!
>"this elden ring is taking too long, what's wrong with it"
>*looks at mass effect andromeda, looks at cyberpunk, looks at anthem, etc.*
>picks a fight with soulsfags for obvious reasons, in retropect
Soulsfags can't handle the possibility of being shazam'd and so they become er-protestants. The hunt for the ER denier begins!
>elden ring threads become increasingly lulzy as the trolls disover their newest lolcow, the "elden ring will surely deliver!" hope-r.
>Shazam, the post apocalypse freelance bounty hunter from the future, earns his bros
>"dude be rational, don't get your hopes up. You're better than the cyberpunk fags."
>crucified.jpg
>any and all dissent is culled
>threads become less good faith, more baiting
>somehow discord trannies get involved, shilling for both sides
>"I *like* that the game is big dark souls and not something new" starts to be the new goalpost.
>Shazam has since left the discussion but lives on rent free in the "discard" tranny pile
>"don't care still buying elden ring" starts being posted all the time, not even replying to anyone.
>Sentiment shifts from pre-order to pirating. Game's once again being judged by the quality of its discussion.
Owen Perry
HOLY FUCK SHAZAM BTFOED
Christian Martin
Some people wanted this game to fail, not in a fun shitposting kinda way but a more earnest craving for it to fail, its weird. As far as i'm concerned this is one of the game that caters to its fans, didn't do much in its swindling like microtransactions, just a game and that's it. I guess that stuff is hate-able nowadays i dunno.

>Hope the invasions aren't too fucked.
That's the one thing I'm worried about, invading a group is alright but fucking around with solo hosts was always more fun
Oliver Phillips
tl;dr
Jack Peterson
this. plus these games dont really change much mechanically so a lot of the fanbase has to force arguments on which game is better
fromsoft has been refining the same game since demon souls. elden ring is just the newest and biggest, if you play these games in release order you will see the same shit improved on/changed mechanically and presentation wise
Jason Rodriguez
I dont understand, what is their motive?
