Dark Souls (or all FromSoftware games for that matter) isn’t actually hard, it just hides behind clunky controls, slow animations and outdated design to create the illusion of difficulty. Most deaths don’t feel like a test of skill, they feel like trial-and-error memorization or getting punished by cheap awkward mechanics. The combat isn’t deep, it’s just deliberately unresponsive and once you learn enemy patterns, the whole experience becomes repetitive rather than rewarding. People don’t love it because it’s well designed; they love it because they’ve convinced themselves the frustration equals accomplishment in their equal pathetic lives. If it released today without its reputation, most players would call it a pixelated image of a garbage bin rather than a masterpiece.
>>736170960Fr fr :skull: :skull: :skull: uncs just thinkin game be good cuz they clunky but nahh mane real niggas can’t be doin that jank ass no cap
>>736170960If the game is supposedly so difficult because of clunky controls, slow animations and outdated design, then why is it so easy for me when I play it now?
>>736170960>Most deaths don’t feel like a test of skill, they feel like trial-and-error memorization or getting punished by cheap awkward mechanics.this is all true, i remember how people were like "duh the game is le hard but fair", no it fucking isn't, there's no way to predict things like the first mimic or great arrows being able to push you off the ledges unless you experience them firsthandtrial. and. error.
>>736171587>If the game is supposedly so difficultYou realize how retarded that is?Like do you actually? It is called bad game design.I can make a game where you only do 1 damage and all enemies have a million HP in the style of the gungeon.Will playing it be fun?NO.Is it difficult?YES.
>>736171587I dunno, maybe they made it easier with the patches, lol play the 1.0 you cum gargler.
>>736170960>outdated design>"illusion">clunkyAll I read is skill issue.
>>736171840But Dark Souls is fun and easy.
Yeah, it's not really a deep combat game but a dungeon crawler where you explore and survive gauntlets while preserving resources. This is why the bosses work better the more they're gimmick fights like Demons Souls instead of reflex tests (or waiting out one safe punish) like ER. ER also removed all the dungeon crawling stakes by placing bonfires way too generously. I was never down to my last flask having to make tough decisions like in other games.
>>736171838This game is only popular because ((((influencers)))) and (((youtubers))) memed zoomers into thinking it is great with their endless videos.The games mechanics are obscure trash the solutions are retarded shits like shooting the dragon tail 100 times and then magically a overpowered sword manifesting in your inventory. The lore is retarded and nonsensical since the author admits it is based on his experience of trying to read a English book while not really understanding English. Contrast this to games like I want to be the guy a troll game who is hard however does not wast your time with obscure trash that you will spend multiple hours running back to the same spot. >>736171587>>736171149What truly ends the fromsoft fags is mortal kombat. Mortal Kombat in the tower challenge is brutal, the bosses outright cheat. However it is fun and requires skill to execute the combos.Fromsoft fags have no skills this is why their epic 300h dark souls skills do not transfer to fighting games. All they know is how to autistially wast their time until something obscure shows up or watching youtube autists give them guide how many times they need to shoot a obscure part of the background to get a overpowered item.
Is this the cope thread?
