What do you miss the most from dark souls 1-2-3 in ER?

[Vvv]

For me, it's havel armour and havel bro cuz bull-goat just doesn't seem as epic, Silver and black knights armour weapons and enemies...dragon slayer great axe, bone fist from DS 2, so many more things but it's enough for me.

[Sabaithal]

Deathblight/curse/petrifaction being a basilisk-only thing.

[FIRE]

boss respawning from ds2

[Kung Fu RUSSEL]

The Kick Button not being an AoW so that the Forward + R1 isn't a dead motion on most weapons.

[Fineous🔥]

Absolutely nothing. Even when i usually feel like revisiting old games from time to time it never happened to me with any souls, i stopped playing them after beating everything for good.

Also because Elden Ring gives me more than any other souls did, so as said nothing.

DS1, Zweihander moveset.

DS2, Several weapon movesets lost to time from there.

Dark Souls 3's better bosses, to be honest. There are some good contenders in ER, but Dark Souls 3 had so many more memorable bosses. I could name pretty much all bossfights from that game off the top of my head right now, DLCs included, meanwhile ER is over here with Erdtree Burial Watchdog #18961279861785. Yes, we have Malenia, Radahn, the ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ Giant and Elden Beast, but that's just really weak compared to DS3, where the only outright bad bossfights I can think about are the gimmick ones, like Ancient Wyvern and High Lord Wolnir. Also, ER's crafting is the single most pointless, useless thing ever put in any game ever. DS3's Greatsword also looked better (by which I mean it looked more like the Dragonslayer).

[Xxanno]

ER's crafting system can go and die in a fire, after that would I say the lack of spirit ashes was good for DS. The spirit ashes justify the bosses ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ gimmics and moveset.

Attack animations like in dark souls 2, when two identical weapons are in hand, so that they hit easier, like katanas that hit left and right.

[Panic Fire]

DS2 NG+ being actual new content.

The animations from Dark Souls 1 when you swing huge weapons with not enough strength. Should have been in every game since.

Yes! Also even if you had the stats, if you whiffed a hit with a heavy weapon you character still stumbled a bit from the momentum

that feature confused me for so long, i had always wondered why the axe and halberd movesets looked so ugly until i googled it

everyone hated kick in ds3 so you shouldn't miss it either

Kick was almost entirely worthless.

For people that didn't know how to use it, sure.

kicking was literally worse than just spamming r1.

Nobody had problems with the kick as a move or with its use cases, they just hated it because it made it so easy to misinput and die.

If they could bring it back while avoiding that problem it'd be great, but I do think taking it off if they couldn't was the right call.

I rest my case, you didn't know how to use it. You don't use kick like an ordinary attack to do damage. Its a heavy stagger, low damage attack designed primarily to guard-break shielded opponents.

And when used correctly and skillfully you can deal with any shielded opponent very easily, since more often than not guard-breaking them sets up for riposite.
