Artificial difficulty is not a good game design. Sekiro was a blast to play, while in Silksong it feels like devs didn't earn 90% of my deaths

Holy shit that's crazy, the Chinese brought down the overall score to 76%?

The English reviews are at 91%.

If you played Hollow Knight and thought
>wow, I want this game again, but only like 60% as good, and with twice the difficulty, and oh, make it unearned, artificial difficulty
then this is the game for you. Bonus points if you're a drooling Gen Z coomer retard who jacks it to "mommies" and amorphous quasi-furry bugs.

What the fuck did you expect? Most of them got in due to memes and reddit hype.

>>720195681
Mostly bosses being too hard and rosary drops being too low
>>
>>720191679
It's filled to the brim with annoying enemies that space you out and the requirement to get to act 3 asks way too much. Overall Hollow Knight was definitely better.

No, actually it's the caring and hysterics about scores that makes it so billions must die.

You could spend an entire day, just focused on trying to explain this bullshit claim, and it still would not make a lick of sense to anyone.
You could write an entire book trying to explain your reasoning, and it would be completely incoherent to everyone.

>>720191679
Its currently one of Steam's top 20 most played games of all time. Millions of shitters who suck at platforming games are kvetching in the user reviews.
>>
>>720191679
The Chinese version has a shit translation and the game is too hard for most "people". Those are literally the only reasons it's being downvoted.
>>
>>720192593
idgaf about this game, but literally nobody knows a single of those reviewers (and that's a good thing)

How fucking hard is it to get a competent translation for what is not even a text heavy metroidvania? There must be literally millions of multilingual people. What a weird self own by the company. Did they trust someone's cousin or something?

I was gonna call you mentally ill but then you posted >>720195918
Completely agree. I use /v/ far less now because of this but it's happening on /tv/ too, probably because there's always been similar traffic between the two boards. I don't understand why the supposed anti-normalfag website cares about the herd movement patterns of the public. The only relevance reviews and sales have on a discussion forum is to determine whether a sequel or not is likely. I don't know. It's too boring and tiring to even articulate how pointless and bizarre it is.
I just assume it's brown people posts
>>
>>720191679
Impressive, very nice. Now let's see the language spread.
>>
>>720196142
I mean, it is, but a review should be primarily about the gameplay IMO and other languages should have separate scores too.

I dont know why we can permanently filter out reviews by languages, but the overall review score doesn't also just adjust based on that too. It doesn't make any sense. If I don't want to see any single review in chinese, why the FUCK would I give a shit about the overall sentiment from all chinese reviews? I just want to know if english speaking people like/dislike a game.

You can change it in the settings, but it's tied to also removing "off-topic" reviews aka review bombs.

Its no harder than HK

Yeah, every tranny loved the indie pixelshit tranny sidescroller.
>>
>>720191679
It's massively popular but also legitimately difficult. There are hundreds of thousands of people that have bought it that are going to be struggling with it. Unless they patch in a difficulty mode that won't change. It's just too tough for normies.
>>
>>720197549
Devs used AI to translate into chinese and none of it makes any sense.
>>
>>720191679

Chinese crybabies, that's why
>>
>>720198272
Huh, makes sense I guess.
>>
>>720196142
It actually is. Too many zoomers are using AI to translate manga and they have no idea what they're doing. Ruins the contexts of conversations but normies eat that shit up and ask for more.

Look at the japanese reviews too. Same issue.
Korean is different since each symbol is a sound instead of a whole word so it's more similar to english.
