@MCMLXVIIOTG lmao didn't even see this one. I never thought how hard it must be for these people to get through life like this. They must really suck at video games too
@Wormwood @MCMLXVIIOTG game journos can't finish the tutorial or rotate the apple in their mind's eye.
@justnormalkorean @Wormwood @MCMLXVIIOTG This is why people say Dark Souls is hard, because they have trouble memorizing a 3D map in their heads and creating a plan of action.
If a game doesn't give them a map and waymarkers they have no clue what to do

@Arkana @MCMLXVIIOTG @Wormwood @justnormalkorean the dark souls map is a bit clusterfucky and this is exactly why metroid prime has a rotatable 3d map lol. i get the hardcore nature of it though.

personally i don't like dark souls or any soulslike games for that matter because every action feels laggy. i like my games to be fast and snappy and i don't want to adjust to something so slow just to play a game i don't care that much about. and that's before you take into consideration actual input lag or performance issues.

@beardalaxy @MCMLXVIIOTG @Wormwood @justnormalkorean You should play Monster Hunter then. It helps a lot with learning slow windups, both you and the enemy

@Arkana @MCMLXVIIOTG @Wormwood @justnormalkorean i played the demo/beta/whatever for MH world. it was fun for a little bit, i just don't think games with that sort of combat style appeal to me very much. i like to go fast and eat ass xD i like hack and slash games way more, that focus on fast movement and clicking a button tends to immediately result in your character doing something on screen with a snappy animation and all of that.

i played Lies of P up until a little bit after the first boss, just to see what it was like. i can't tell you how many times i pressed a button and my crack brain didn't see something happen on the screen immediately, so i pressed it again which resulted in me doing the action twice and getting me killed or hurt xD

i can understand the appeal of wanting a sort of realistic way of depicting attack and movement wind-ups and using stamina for everything and all that jazz, it's just not my cup of tea. it ends up just feeling a little clunky to me, as someone who mostly plays games where you are going really fast.
