Reddit and steam gamerdads are NOT happy about the difficulty in Silksong
>>720193907Is this that Ori-style escape section after fighting bunch of niggas in the fire pit with no floor, or something else
spamming/flooding
>>720196448>>720196542You didn't include my review.
>>720196761Link it pussy
>>720197063It's the one with 4 paragraphs talking about bug pussy.
if u never played nine sols u dont really understand how underwhelming hk and silksong is
>>720196448Fuck I'm exhausted from shills
>Bad game balance and fake difficulty is good game design now.>It's good because it's bad!
>>720196448it aint the difficulty, because most of it just frustrating and tedious small things that just annoy you. Ninesols is easily more difficult, but people love all of it, because it doesnt waste your time for no reason. Silksong is just bad design in a mediocre game. They learned nothing on what made HK bad and double down on the bad parts.
>>720196448lol
>>720200529>game balance is bad if it isn't balanced around my preferences and skill>it is bad because its not what i personally like!there is a lot of time wastage since everything is so spread around but with little actual reward and some corpse runs are long though
>>720200529Not everything is meant for everyone.I myself have never touched Hallow Knight and have no interest to, I know it is not for me.
>>720202846a rare and unusually good take for something posted in /v/
>>720196448>the same crowd who said "it's just the same pattern and movement over and over that I can executely perfectly as many times I need in a row, just streamline it so you don't waste my time" can't actually do what they've saidhuh, how about that
>>720196448EMERGENCY PATCH INCOMINGSILKSONG IS SAVED
>>720202846based and same.
>>720202994Are you samefagging or just mentally retarded enough to believe that someone who has no interest and never touched hollow knight frequenting hollow knight threads in order to defend them is a good take, whatever that means.
what is it with people not utilizing game mechanics because they have an image of themselves as of those who do not need to pay attention to anything in their retarded stupid fucking lifessame thing with elden ring just use a fucking shield
>>720203284>sister splinter nerfwhy? the rng could be nasty at times but it was relatively fair and one of the better bosses in act1
Anything that does not cater to me personally is a bad game. Simple as.
>>720203694thats unironically how all nonwhite normies think
>>720203403I don't frequent these threads, I'm eating breakfast and was interested in people being retarded, I'm not going to defend anything about these games because I have never played one.I'm just going to call people stupid for calling a game bad when clearly thousands of others are good at it.
>>720200529You can actually pinpoint the moment game design forever took a turn for a worse when it comes to difficulty, and it's when Fromsoft mistook memes for reviews, and got high on their own supply during the window of time when Dark Souls achieved moderate success in the west.Something must've gotten lost in translation back then, because they clearly took those jokes about YOU DIED, Sen's Funhouse, or the comics poking fun at how hard the skeletons next to firelink would beat the kind of player who'd assume them to be weak because they're right next to the start, at complete face value. And then they just kinda ran with the mistaken thought that people weren't poking fun at how DaS played with expectations, and would sometimes throw you for a loop, but instead enjoyed being brutalized by the game constantly surprising them with cheap shots and inflated damage/HP numbers, which increasingly became the design philosophy for those games going forward, and then became the design philosophy for every game with aspirations of being "difficult".I sometimes wonder what games would look like now had Miyazaki not been an idiot, and just taken away from those memes what they were supposed to convey. The enjoyment of not having your hand held every step of the way, of traversing a world that doesn't feel like it's trying to accommodate you, of having to be attentive, of being allowed to actually make mistakes. I think games would be much different, and much better off.
>>720203496>just use a fucking shieldyou didn't beat it
>>720203878Sure you don't.
>>720203969My steam achievement list says otherwise what your proof
>>720203479Not my first rodeo fapping to pitch black voids.
>>720203284>emergency>a week from now
>>720196448You can tell they put all their attention into the design of the movement, the world, etc. This game does platforming, action, and exploration (not to mention story) all so well that it might be the best game in multiple platforming subgenres. This is one of those cases where a developer made a game that iterates on something I played as a kid, but they also put the amount of effort into it justified by their budget and the superior tech of the 2020s. That's what this is, it's like a classic SNES platformer except bigger and better in every way.
>>720196448Games are supposed to be fun, not a job.
>>720205623If you turn a video game into a job, then it's a sign you have fuck all else in your life worth investing time and effort into.
>>720196448Filthy fucking casual n00b fags need to git gud or quit

I do not understand why anyone is calling this game hard.
>>720208342>he thinks he finished the game
>>720203807>One black characterWhite normies lose their shit.Are you sure that is how nonwhite normies think?t.more white than you'll ever be, except not a normie
>>720208623The people complaining aren't talking about anything in Act 3, they're talking about Moorwing
>>720196448Yep, I don't like platformers so I got filtered by that. Woe is me. How will I ever survive without playing some bing bing wahoo clone?
>>720203284It's Armored Core 6 all over again.
>>720207249Based
>>720202846>>720203923Agreed, the problem is Fromdrones and Soulstards think injecting their mechanics into everything is the peak of design.They don't even realize the hypocrisy of telling others complaining about difficulty that "this game isn't for them".
>>720203284>"we slightly nerfed two early game bosses">99% of problems still untouched>game still sucks>but now they angered the autistic puristsSasuga Team Cherry
>and (you)for that i would need to play itand i dont play sequels to shit gamesbut keep the shilling going 20 threads daily of the same crap game isnt enough
>>720208851Fair enough, wonder what it'll be like once they actually start making progress though. Hopefully we don't get more nerfs
I don't care about 2D garbage.
>>720196448i always thought damage on touch is gay desu senpai
>>720209121The problem is that we have different experiences. This game isn't that hard and you don't know that because you haven't played the same games I have. By the same turn, I think arcade games are hard but there's people who have different experiences and find them normal.
>>720202846I thought the same, but I just started hollow knight and I'm having more fun than I thought I would. The way people talked about it made me expect unskippable cutscenes and dozens of wall of text about lore I'm not gonna care about immediately, but it's like 99% gameplay right from the start.
I am 100% convinced that zoomies who talk about "fake difficulty" wouldn't be able to beat a single NES game.
>>720200435I like nine sols a lot but it's leagues behind in the presentation department at the very least
>>720196494Not him but yeaIt was pretty stressful until you get halfway up then its a joke
It doesn't feel significantly more difficult than the first game to me.Also what is with people resigning themselves to their bodies deteriorating in their 30s/40s- it's pathetic. No your reflexes/reaction times have not degraded you are just fat and lazy
>>720196448basedsame experience with Redout 2 and now bad reviews for Incision"muh it doesn't (((respect your time)))"some people just need to step it up and apply themselves
d*dgamers were a great mistake
>>720203923>>720209121>dark souls is the first time games were hardDo you people always have to force yourself to be ridiculous?
wait, did i skip a boss by travelling with the flea caravan? ffs
>>720203496Silksong is difficult independent of you being good at using the mechanics or not. If anything you have to be very good at using them to turn the game from ballbusting to just challenging. And it expects you to be pretty close to a master at them all.
>>720200529>casuals are bad at vidyaAnd?
>>720212404You didn't miss anything worth regretting.
>>720196448It's a reddit game thoughbeit
>>720212593At least it ain't gacha slop
why cant people just practice and get better instead of requesting to make it easierwhere is the satisfaction in that. you can see other people beating it so just get better and be like them
>>720212404It comes back later
the first game was mid and normies deserve to lose their money
>>720212624people are fundamentally not interested in a challenge or a puzzle to solve. they are interested in an experience that keeps their attention and lets them yap about it afterwards.
>>720203923>it's another parrybait game with a stamina barjust let it be fucking over, i'm tired of this fad
>>720212624A lot of people lose the drive to challenge themselves outside of a work setting when they get to be middle agedThe idea that something might not be for them is offensive, because they want to be part of the cultural zeitgeist
>>720212837they want a movie or a netflix series, not a videogame. the last of us was made for people like this
>game too hardGit gud, casuals
>>720196448Built for billion bug men cock
>>720212624>any other game>die after doing dumb shit>restart at checkpoint near bossvs>gay "hard" games>die simply touching the enemy, the enemies have bloated HP, do 1/3rd of your health with combos that can instantly send you from full to 0>respawns all the enemies(gay platforming obstacles optional)>makes you run the same path, again, because lol tediumyeah, it's quite easy to see why
>>720213190the solution is to play the other, easier game if thats more your speed
>>720213190>be a casual>complainOof
>>720213190cry about it you fucking faggot it baffles me that /v/irgins can suck at games when that's all you people do
>>720213230Well here's the thing you FUCKING RETARD. THEY DON'T MAKE OTHER ACTION GAMES.EVERY FUCKING ACTION GAME IS FILLED WITH AIDS>stamina bar>parry system that forces you to use it or waste time>meme damage from enemies who wind up a swing, swing it, stop it for 1 second, hop on 1 foot with jazz hands, do a flip, and then the swing instantly slams down in 1 frame after the ACTUAL tell, his ballsack shriveling
>>720213392Modern /v/irgins are spoiled by gacha slop autobattlers
>>720213230>>720213380>>720213392you're game isn't fun, it sucks, playing a 2d "action" game where you sit on the edge of a bosses range playing gay footsies isn't fun, i've already done this in dozens of games
>>720213426ok, so you dont like this type of game. here try some of these https://store.steampowered.com/category/sim_farming_crafting/
>>720212958i'm 32 and have already given up being part of the cultural zeitgeist because the present is cringei'm often tired and slow, but i play the videogames i like to apply myself
>>720213426So you dont like video games?
>>720213190but anon, you do reset at checkpoint near bossunless you got filtered by not being able to find bench locations>the enemies have bloated HPupgrade nail>do 1/3rd of your healthfind mask shards>with combos that can instantly send you from full to 0learn attack patters and punish timings>respawns all the enemies(gay platforming obstacles optional)you'd have to have parkinsons>makes you run the same path, again, because lol tedium2-3 screens most oftenthat's all assuming you actually played the game and aren't baiting with the most shit of takes
>>720213491Nigger I don't even own the game. I beat the first and it was overrated as fuck. You being bad at videogames is a (You) problem.
>>720213426There are plenty of DMC style action games for your gay ass to enjoy
>>720213498>is so retarded he thinks i want farming simulators, when were talking about action games>>720213531>is so retarded he would play "watch grass grow" competitively, since it's so hard>>720213574>automatically assumes i didn't beat HK, which i also think is overrated as fuck>>720213616show me them, they don't exist
>>720213668>>automatically assumes i didn't beat HK, which i also think is overrated as fuckI don't care whether you've played the first or not, you're bitching about difficulty on a board for dedicated videogame enthusiasts/losers. You are pathetic.
>>720213426Theres plenty of button masher games still, since thats what it sounds like you want
>>720213491>sit on the edge of a bosses range playing gay footsiesfucking build beast crest and rush them allhonestly you should try playing the game instead of bashing your skull into the wall and rushing into any encounter headfirst with no knowledge on how to dodge and punish>you'renigger
>>720200529>It's good because it's bad!Yes. Genuinely.
>>720203923lmao shut up, nerd
>>720203923Modern souls is fucking easy you casual retard.
>>720213740I'm bitching about every other game playing exactly the same, it seems like all I ever do in these games is just "watch boss pattern, mechanically insert damage using best ability" except silk song isn't fun when i paly it>>720213769>you'resurprised anyone even mentioned it, i do it all the time
>>720213893>blah blah blah I'm bad at gamesKill yourself, seriously.
>>720213893>videogames play like videogames>this upsets me
>>720213893>watch boss pattern, mechanically insert damage using best abilityThis is why bosses are supposed to have adds.
>>720196448>i really want to like this gameWhy do you faggots say this?
>>720214058They're used to movie games where they don't have to earn progress.
