This only happens in PTDieE where they just spam ganks at you
>>741797520>>741797626>>741797678>>741797694Shut up, idiots. These games are pure garbage.

>>741797441>>741797743underage retard
>rushing into a closed spaceYou don't do that unless you intimately know the enemy placement. That's recipe for an early death right there.
>>741797441have you tried not playing like a retard?
>>741797821>>741797914>game is good because is le hard xD>''difficulty'' is all artificial RNGwoah so hardcore for hardcore gamers!
>>741797441>Souls maps are so well connected!the connectivity in question:
>>741798134Hard as in using the minimal amount of brainpower, no wonder zoom zooms get overwhelmed, it isnt fast enough for them. But then it gets too fast when they play their way. Heh, kinda makes you think.
>>741798134wtf is that zoomer shit. how is nightreign a real game they made
>>741797441>tight corridor and stairs to funnel the mob of hollows>walls and pillars offer protection from ranged attacks>runs in>drops down

>>741798326Just ignore this disingenuous retard OP and go to another thread to save yourself from brain damage.
>>741797441this is ragebait>>741797626this is dishonest reddit shit
Reminder if you do what op did than obviously you're just bad and retarded and need to le git gud, but doing the exact same thing in DS2 is the game's fault for having muh enemy placement! This is the fanbase
>>741798134wtf is this
>>741798469Explain how it's dishonest.Your own post seems ragebait as well.
>>741798628no one who sees a pressure plate is looking for the actual trap and than step on it. thinking about this, makes it not only dishonest, but plain retarded.also you cant see where the arrows come from in Dark Souls 1.just overall a retarded reddit image.
>>741798614>das 1you can run the hell back>das 2Actually, we added a very small step at the door now you are locked in this room, forever
>>741797743What's funny is those big arrows are loud as fuck and everyone should have heard that thing both being shot and coming towards them well in advance but all choose to ignore that to do damage instead.
>>741798749That's why he lifted the shield in the pic. Also I often triggered traps and immediately rolled just to see what they do or hit enemies with it.
>>741798749>also you cant see where the arrows come from in Dark Souls 1.Pot calling the kettle retarded here it seems.
>>741797626>I AM SILLYthe left cant meme
>>741797441you will never convince a rollslop soulsfreak that these games are utter dogshit for every aspect of game designtheir only rebuttal is le git gud, because they think that through artificial forced repetition that the game is "hard"
>you were just supposed to know he could do that>0 hints to prepareTrial and error crap isn't ''hard''.
>>741799191If it's not hard then why do you die so much?
>>741799190>artificial forced repetitionThat's all video games.
>>741799191If you've played any other soulsshit game you'd know that enemies love to knock your ass off into the deathpits. Someone post that ER ball webm, gives me a giggle every time I see it.
Any time anyone uses the word "artificial" in reference to video game design you can safely regard all of their past and future opinions as meaningless
its been years since ive played this but im pretty sure you can see all of those guys BEFORE you go up the stairs, and they arent just standing there to ambush you, theyre moving to the stairwell to come down and attack you
>>741799314that is absolutely not all video games you mindbroken fromtrannymajority of games have intuitive game design with expected patterns and outcomessoulslop tries to be LE QUIRKY CHUNGUS by completely shifting that and artificially wasting your fucking timeits as played out and shitty as jumpscares in horror movies
Yeah okay lil bro. Try to defend this one.
>>741798819>das1LOL yolo i can just run back!>das2Hmmm, looks like there's a step. I wont be able to fall back in case of an ambush. I better assess the situation and prepare like an adventurer..
>>741797441>shitter gets filtered by a slightly challenging game>still seethes about it a decade and a half later Why can't you accept that it just isn't for you?
>>741799687And all of that is artificial forced repetition.You just personally find some version of that fun over souls games.Despite typing all that out you never actually refuted my point.
>>741799963Is this the part where you explain how a knight can't climb it?
More bad enemy placement from the ''masters'' at FromSoft!
>>741797441This is the best section in both Burg and Parish though.
>>741800023>And all of that is artificial forced repetition.you dont know the meaning of that word fucking retardif i know how enemies will react and they have the expected reaction, if I fail, thats ACTUALLY A SKILL ISSUEif enemy suddenly decides to teleport behind me all of a sudden and have some shitty mechanic that doesnt make any fucking sense and that it doesnt give you time to react to it unless YOU ALREADY KNOW he is gonna do it just so that game can ARTIFICIALLY kill you and waste your time then thats not good game design fromtranny

>>741798134that's nothing compared to the army of angels you have to fight later
>>741800450>>741800463But if it's DS2 it's the game's fault!
>>741800679And then the bloody army of angels that can fuse into Giga Aldrich
>>741799191>Guy holding a spear>"How was I supposed to know he'd charge me!?!?!"
>>741797626this but only with ds2 because ds1 and ds3 are garbage games for disgusting spear chucking nigger coon primates
>>741800301All of that is artificial, made by man.All of that is forced, required to beat the game.All of that is repetition, you have to do the same actions multiple times to beat a game.Every game is 'Simon says' at the end of the day.Once again, you just personally like some version of Simon says more than souls games.

Artifical difficulty is a real thing. You cannot deny it after watching this. ShitSoft forces you to lose to make you think you are playing a hardcore game. It's all fake.
>>741797626Whoever made that has never played the game. As if a single trap kills you, lol lmao
>>741801131>forces you to loseCope and seethe, should have killed the boulder, skill issue
>>741801043>not giving upis this your actual argument lmao?i know you're too retarded and subhuman to understand but i dont like when a game wastes my fucking time. fromslop games are designed in a way to waste your fucking time, yeah i can "not give up" and keep replaying parts until i memorize enemy locations and boss patterns, that is NOT good game design retard and it is not based on any sort of skill, its a literally memory game. you actually think its hard because you are so low iq that repetition for you means hard, artificial repetition on top of that>>741801127you are a retarded faggot and should immediately kill yourself and livestream it for the world to see, chatgpt using low iq subhuman tranny

i have never seen a good .mp4 postjust saying
>>741801352>once again, no rebuttal You are literally not smart enough to argue against me. That's why you chimp out every time instead.Try actually thinking up an argument at some point in your life.
>>741801616I never claimed they're difficult

>>741801352>picrelDo people do that? Just take a lot of breaks?I remember like ten years or so ago I killed Ornstein and Smough and yeah I died like twenty times and no I didn't take a single break, you fucking sit there until your brain bleeds out your eyesockets and until it does that you haven't committed enough.
>>741802054My argument was that all games are artificial forced repetition, like you claim that DS is, somehow being the only provided example.You have tried and failed to explain how I am wrong.
FromSoft is a japanese government agency that has successfully pysop'd westerners into thinking dogshit game design is actually the best thing ever since sliced bread.Israel wishes they had the same power as Japan.
>>741797441Dark Souls 1 didn't even have diagonal rolling anon. It's primitive as hell.
>>741797626truei wish fromsoft's dungeon crawlers would come back
>>741797441>rushes into a room with lots of weak but aggressive enemies, gets overwhelmed, retard thinks this is the games faultthere are plenty of ways to criticize dark souls and really any souls game, but this is not it
>>741797441Disingenuous as fuck and you know it. You can see every single enemy on your way up the stairs so you'd know full well you'd be attacked by the knights jumping down
>>741797441out fucking skilled
>>741798749>>741799058every single day I see someone on /v/ whining about dark souls who has never once played it, kek. When I see that comic I immediately think of that exact spot in Sen's fortress (or a couple others). I know that anon won't respond to you so I figured you should get at least one (You) for your troubles
summons and invasions were a genius concept. co-op was fun. gatekeeping faggots who tried to breeze through the game with co-op was even more fun. i miss hunting niggers down like animals.
>>741799821one is equipped with a slashing weapon (broad arcing motion) and the other with a thrusting weapon (compact inline motion)
>>741797441lamaoshitnigger slopsouls a trashniggazaki a shitshitazaki a nigfromdrones slurp this as the greatest gaem evar
>>741799821>oink snort* bugged game mechanics
>>741800526That enemy has a piercing weapon, which pokes, therefore not hitting the wall. Same exact rules apply to the player, who wouldn't have had an issue right there poking with a rapier rather than swinging at the wall with the battleaxe. If you don't want to switch your weapon then just simply JUMP ATTACK NIGGA holy shit you have options
>>741800301it's amazing that the director behind shadow tower and kings field will make dark souls 2 more of an rpg dungeon crawler than any other souls game and it to this day continues to utterly filter zoomers who play souls games for the action adventure rollslop shit there isnt a single "gank" in dark souls 2 that cant be avoided if you simply use your eyes
>>741797441>rushes towards the big enemy ignoring all the smaller enemies on the way>surprised when the smaller enemies gang rape his ass>this is somehow the game's faultMaybe try gitting gud?
>>741804394bullshit
>>741798469>this is dishonest reddit shitits LITERALLY what dark souls game discussion was on release. thats where the whole "git gud" meme came from. souls players were tired of explaining to tourists about how they are fucking retarded for going YOLO then complaining when they die.
>sprints into the room>doesn’t pull the undead out into the hall >walks right into the worst possible positioningabsolute dogshit gameplay on your behalf
>>741801237you should play until you get to sens fortress little bro
>>741797441This is VERY intuitive to dodgeHard, but fair
>>741804631So what happened when DS2 came out and the fanbase promptly forgot how to play a game they've been telling tourists to git gud at?
>>741804794The elden shart DLC ends after you kill messmer, anything afterwards is pure unfiltered garbage.
>>741804803larpers/tourists + youtuber hate at the time causing bandwagons
>>741804582the titanite catch pole "catching" you by surprise once again lol
>>741804803even ignoring how they ran ahead bringing aggro'd enemies, why the fuck would someone walk back inside the very narrow hallway?
>>741804794I've played every single game in the series, never summoned for any boss. Gay Sex Radahn on release is the first boss across FROM's entire catalog I've just not wanted to engage with what so ever because after multiple hours I saw no improvement in my attempts despite cycling through multiple builds. Just cheesed it with the fingerprint shield.
>>741804803>forgot how to playDS2 was made to counter a lot of cheese that people did in dark souls 1>circle strafemany enemies have crazy good tracking to the point their feet glide on the ground. circle strafing is not as good in 2. some enemies even attack behind them>stunlock with hitstuckeven basic footmen in starting area can have am escape mechanic type attack that isntantly breaks them out of stunlock and hits you which is very unintuitive for dark souls 1 player>running past enemies to open chest/fog walldark souls 2 took away a lot of i-frames on some actions like doors or going in fog walls.>rolls dont have as many i-framespeople made fun of dark souls 1 for being stupid because you "rolled into attacks" and devs felt offended so they made it so dark souls 2 was mroe about positioning and you dont need i-frames, they also made you need to spend stats to have good i-frames which newer players wouldnt know and if they tried to roll the same way as 1 they would die
>>741798304Every snippet of shitreign I see reaffirms mu decicion to not get itGod it looks ass
>>741797441>killed the non-respawning clergy guyThey made progress.
>>741804794this boss made me hope from just makes more armored core or sekiro games and stops doing soulslikes, clearly they've run out of ideas
>>741804921i 2 hand my weapon and dodge roll stuff to beat it like an og ds1 gatekeeper but i really feel like a lot of the DLC is so bullshit you are meant o use every consume/buff/"cheese" strat you can. i fucking hate c-radahns aoe in phase 2 good lord.
>>741804582skill issue
>>741798304The series was going in this direction since people hated Dark Souls 2 for being more like King's Field & Shadow Tower.
>>741799191>see guy holding a weapon thats use IRL and in this same game franchise to make a big poke straight forward with big reach >I know... I shall run right in front of him You're genuinely a stupid person anon. I know that your ego and low intelligence makes this hard to accept, but I need you to think about how often you say [something] and everyone calls you a retard. It isn't that you're way smarter than everyone else, you're on the wrong end of the bell curve.
>>741804803Most people didn't git gud at Dark Souls 1. They figured out one of the dozen or so wats to cheese Dark Souls 1, then figured that meant they beat the game. Which, in a way, they did. DS2 is basically custom built to counter those forms of cheese, and relies on a lot more action game fundamentals. If you play them from a position of actually having gotten good, Dark Souls 2 is by far the easiest in the series, but from an outside or newbie perspective it's easily the hardest, because they put in effort to make the game difficult to cheese. Dark Souls 1, meanwhile, is more difficult than 2 if you play it while consciously avoiding cheese strats, but is trivial if you decide to use any of them.Just, at a fundamental level. Dark Souls 2 expects you to actually play the levels. That alone filters a third of the fanbase who run past everything.
>>741798626some idiot playing multiplayer and going to where his friends are fighting and then getting hit with a stray shot just as he enters arena.
>>741797441Sped up clip or just running the game faster?
>>741801237at that point? it might, especially while running
>>741798304It is the second good action game Fromsoft has ever made. If they stapled some gay ass story about a dead kingdom to it, you morons would basedface over it hard.
>>741797441>the fucking kick instead of attackingthe controls in these games are so garbagetho it felt way, WAY worse in ds3 when it comes to these fucking kicks
>>741798236To be absolutely fair, while the shitty firelink elevator gets all the credit, the actual powerhouse in Dark Souls carrying all the weight is Darkroot and Valley of the Drakes. Those are genuinely great areas that exemplify the best aspects of Dark Souls' world, and it's telling that the game's quality drops off a cliff once you stop being in areas close to them.
>>741803507preciate it.
>>741804582Those demons are the worst enemies in the game, for sure.
there's literally a window, and you can see all of that shit waiting for you, if you don't dash in like an idiot.
>>741800147I love the wombo combos in this area.
>>741804803>Naked greatsword build playing like shit and tantrumingEVERY goddamn time, why the fuck is it always a naked/tseldora greatsword build
Git gud or git filteredIts that simple
these games aren't even that hard and just punish you for acting like a retard. which i know is hard for /v/ to resist doing, hence their dismay. even if plenty of builds allow you to act like a retard anyway. speaking of which>>741806339unga bunga buildfags are always the first to cry when they die
>>741797441That's genuinely impressive, I'd have no idea how to kite that all together
don't tell me there are people on this board who couldn't beat Radahn. no way, right?
>Dark Souls 199% of the difficulty in Dark Souls 1 is the lack of tutorials explaining how shit works, and the large attrition rate from the first few hours of the game when you don't understand any of the controls, stats, or anything else. Once you understand the fundamentals, Dark Souls 1 is pretty flaccid for the most part. Enemies are slow and stiff and generally only become threatening in very straining positions for the player. A player approaching Dark Souls 1 from a position of any prior experience with the franchise just doesn't get it. Including people who played Demon's before.>Dark Souls 2Dark Souls 2 is mostly difficult because the game expects you to take it seriously, something no other game in the franchise does. A lot of Dark Souls 2's difficulty boils down to making a stupid decision or writing something off, and having your hand slapped in response. You hear this often, but Dark Souls 2 is a game where when you die, you usually know exactly what you did to cause it. This is also why it generates incalculable levels of seathe, because much more responsibility for yiur death is put onto the player.>BloodborneBloodborne was hard when it was made because it was faster than the others. That's it. This is also why it has aged extremely poorly. Playing BB after DS3, Sekiro, or Elden Ring is like playing Dark Souls 1 and knowing what all the stats do first. You just don't get the experience.>DS3Dark Souls 3 is hard because it expects you to remember patterns. Unfortunately this manifests as purely rollslop 90% of the time. Dark Souls 3 doesn't take its standard enemies or areas seriously.>Elden RingElden Ring is hard(?) because it says the boss in front of you is too complex to learn, but dumps overpowered shit into your lap like 1 and expects you to play ball. Elden Ring cares even less for its enemies and areas than DS3. The actual difficulty of Elden Ring is accepting that yes, that's it.
>hard but fai-
>>741804582That Taurus demon right there. One of the most satisfying wins I ever had in Soulsborne. Jesus, I can tap into the feeling to this bloody day. lnmao
>>741804582Thats what you get for running away
>>741797743lol git gud scrub
Memorization is a skill. People who bitch about 'trial and error' gameplay lack this skill. All difficult games are 'trial and error', dumb-dumb.
>>741797626Notice how nobody uses "viral" anymore. When did that fall out of fashion?
>>741798749>just overall a retarded reddit image.The pic has been here longer than you, tourist.
>>741804783I suppose a swinging axe is technically also a trap but we're talking about pressure-plate-shooting-arrows kind of traps not massive-swinging-axe kind of "trap".
>>741797441>Killed the channelerI mean that's a successful 'run'. He doesn't respawn so now all future trips are much easier
>>741805746Ehhh, I disagree slightly. You don't have to invest heavily into Poise to be able to facetank a lot of shit, and armour means a lot more in DS1. So even the average player who just plays regurly can turn the game trivial.
>>741804582OH NO NO FROM SISSIES OUR NARRATIVE IS CRUMBLING
>>741798761Aw look he's smiling.
>>741808178So fucking Kino. BB really is the best game From made.
