why are people so bad at this game?
>>741915518lol the soap at the end.Elden Cringe strikes again, i think its not even the 3rd best souls game.Demon's Souls and Bloodborne and Dark Souls 1 are all better imo.
bad is the default state, it takes time and effort to be anything else
>>741915518Most people don't let TAS do the work.
>>741915518Because it sucks ass and is boring so people dont have the patience to find glitches to beat its broken mechanics
the talisman and weapons/ash he's using are from the DLC meanwhile that's a base game boss he's fighting.But yeah the game is easy and that fight is easy, I just want to point out that the OP is disingenuous by design.I used RKR and Giant Crusher which are all based game.
>>741915518They try to beat the game by DPS rushing every enemy with their unoptimized builds instead of learning fights through observation and patience.
>>741915518Because the game gives you too many ways to cheese it like summons, stance breaking, l2 spam, night comet, etc. You're never forced to actually learn the fights at any point which means the players have virtually zero underlying skill
>>741915518They give up to easily
>>741915940That was a big issue in souls games with magic.
>>741915518Oh wow you played so much you learned pattern recognition congrats
>>741916115Elden Ring is the worst at this, the game gives you summons and a lot of broken tools but this is not an immersive sim or some weird RPG, its an action rpg centered around challenge.In the past Souls games were about figuruing out the journey and knowing where to go and which route to take, how to progress and to traverse a level full of traps. The games were not just boss rush challenge for streamers. But with Dark Souls 3 it started to change and the change was complete with Elden Ring turning the game into boss rush challenge slop, because lets face it, exploration and levels are the worst of the series, the balance is terrible and there is not sense of crafted progression.Elden Ring will be the begging of the end for Fromsoft
Guys look he's wearing the Funny Hat™You gotta understand, it's the Funny Hat™, that automatically makes whatever he's doing funnyThank goodness for the Funny Hat™, or I'd never realize that he's doing this ironicallyThanks, Funny Hat™
>>741915518Why are you wasting time and energy trying to be good at a game?
>>741915518because getting good at it is nothing but memorization and a normal person is bored after 1 playthrough
>>741915518>blood katana >ZOMG SO PISS EZnuke india
>>741915518it took him dozens of times to do that lol
>>741916254Demon's Souls has totally linear levels. DS1 is a bit tricky to navigate. DS2 is very intuitive. DS3 is mostly linear. Bloodborne is mostly linear. 1/5 Souls games had any kind of unintuitive navigation. All Souls games are boss rush simulators if you are good at them. If you took a long time to reach the area boss in any previous game, that was a skill issue.
>>741916625He isn't even using a katana.
>>7419155180:44 is not acceptable.
>>741915518the price of getting this good at ER is chopping your dick off
>>741915518I think a lot of the reason people die so much in these games is because the fanbase tells them things going in that aren't really true. At least for beginners. Like the idea that this is a role-playing game and you have "builds".Not really. Not like actual RPG games. Souls games are way closer to a Zelda or Metroid game. The game gives you a massive variety of tools to win, and you should be prepared to use them all. But then there are huge numbers of people who say "I'm playing a strength build, I don't want to use a ranged weapon on this boss". But....that's nonsense. The bosses have specific weaknesses and the game gives you tools to exploit them. To not use them is adding additional challenge from outside the game. Souls vets saying to always prioritize fashion gets a lot of beginners in trouble.
>>741915518>dude, like just learn every single movement and execute this actions perfectly bro, its not hard bro
>>741918015Demon Souls lets you do the areas in pretty much any order you want and said areas having tons of branching paths. Nonlinear doesn't mean every single thing in the game has to be doable in every single order. Unintuitive is also a bad thing, if the game doesn't give you the general idea of progression then it is not well designed. If a game took out all cues that a boss or point of no return was coming that would not be a good thing.
>Naked>Goofy helmet>Has spent thousands of hours on frame dataIt's always the same smelly faggots.
>>741915518I think a lot of people sit too close to the screen tbqhwyf. When I started playing at console sitting distance somehow I did a lot better in boss battles reacting to their patterns.
>>741918408The games are relatively difficult compared to what most people play, most people die often in them. Most normal people do not come to 4chan and read nonsense here and take it to heart or believe the years of 'I only died like 5 times in Dark Souls!' They just play the game, and that means going into stuff blind and not being prepped or reading what to do, and figuring out by trial and error or just being stubborn and brute forcing.
>>741918757I think the people who go in blind actually have less deaths on average than the people who have preconceived notions from reading 4chan.
Because Elden Ring specifically has attacks designed to be unintuivie to dodge unless you know the frame data and only autists want to do that. It also has frame reading so you can't think outside the box unlike with Dork Souls 1-3.
>muh framesjust breate and count to 3
