Yui Tanimura must be fired

[urabe mikoto]

Or at least, he should not be allowed to have any significant roles in future major From games. Let him direct King's Field or Deracinè or whatever. He tainted Dark Souls 2, he tainted Elden Ring and he will taint any future game if allowed to

Ah yes, fire the guy who saved DS2, that makes sense. You're a genius OP, truly the Genghis Khan of staffing and development at Fromsoft.

Saved DS2 from what?

Like it or not, Dark Souls 2 was well received and Tanimura was chosen for a reason.

Dark souls 2 sucks. It's worse than Dark souls 1 and Demon Souls and the reason I quit the series until Elden Ring.

Explain how he "saved" it? It was terrible. They added new stuff in the NG+'s in the game but it was such a ♥♥♥♥♥♥ game I never wanted to even go into NG+, just sit in NG and play PvP. The multiplayer arenas in it were awesome, the only good point of the game.

So how does Elden Ring compare to DS(2)?

It was having a bad development and going WAAAYYY off base with time travel plots and ♥♥♥♥. So the original director, not sure who it was, don't care, was replaced with Tanimura and he built it from the ground up with the broken pieces.

This, the man literally put dark souls 2 together from scraps left over from the guy they fired mid development and still put a good game together. Also the dlc level design was all him. Tanimura is great at what he does.

Is dark souls 2 a good souls game in comparison to everything else? No its not the best and is the red headed step child. Is it still a great game? Yes. Stop ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ on a game that A) Miyazaki never wanted to have happen(same with 3) and B) had a pure hellish development cycle to the point its amazing we even got the product we got at the end of the day

Explains why the game feels like a bunch of random pieces stitched together.

It needs PvP arenas and some bug fixes first before I can compare. Without PvP arena this game feels like it's still in Beta tbh.

Everything that is bad in this game can be more or less traced to similar things that first appeared in Dark Souls 2. So I'm blaming him

That's still really really vague.
What bad things are we speaking about?
How are they linked to DS2?
How can we know that it was this individual's fault in DS2?

Obviously he knows Tanimura personally and talks to him every day. /s

Fire the guy who saved DS2 and co-directed DS3 and Elden Ring, I hope that doesn't have a negative impact on their future games. He is not important, just boot him. Those centipedes that spam homing projectiles, the parking ticket you got for no reason and that time the alarm didn't go off, all his fault.

[An Irate Walrus]

12 million units sold suggests he's not going anywhere.

Seethe, I guess?

[Syzygy]

Yeah I've noticed some of the jank from DS2 in Elden Ring too, not ideal. I'm not sure how to be certain it's specifically Tanimuras fault, though.

Unrelated but I would like to know who designed and ok'd those things.

Seriously those are one of the worst designed enemies I've ever seen, putting even ONE in a room is awful, who's bright idea was it to put THREE of them in that dungeon you get warped to from that trap chest in Limgrave?!

Seriously between those and *%&$ing Runebears I just find the enemy design missing the point of how a "hard" enemy should be designed.

I mean yeah the Lake of Rot and the nightmares within are awful, but I have a personal gripe against things like Runebears, anything that basically can be summed up as "giant flailing hitbox" isn't a good design choice imo.

I seriously hate Runebears that much, they're just...the worst.

[TotalTriscuit]

Stay mad cuz bad

[Chad "The King" ThunderCuck]

you can blame mikiziki for ANYTHING you dont like about DS2. the game was nearly finished when mikiziki finished pretending he was a developer and gave the OK for bloodborne to launch. then he went over to the DS2 team and demanded that they gut the game, and cobble it together with less than half of what they already had. and its STILL the best souls game.
