Sekiro: Shadows Die Twice (new From Software game)

[MajorMace]

I would love if this game allowed you to fight bosses in the arena with players as spectators, like some sort of gladiatorial game.

That's a great idea actually. And would fit a FS game, since they're always so interested in ways to make use of players as a ressource of multiplayer ever since DeS and its famous Monk boss fight.

 

[Nathir]

Yep, playing the same game 20 times in a row is ... abnormal.

While playing games you know you won't enjoy for dozens and dozens of hours and then complaining about them writing the same posts over and over is perfectly normal, right Porky? Perfectly sane behavior, nothing to see here.

It's worst than that, since he just spent 3-4 days to do a boss in Sekiro... but it's bad if we do it?

So let me get this straight Elden Ring sucks because you can only do the bosses if you play the game "20 times" but then he does the same shit in Sekiro and that's fine? Suddenly it's ok if you can't do the boss on your first try and have to bruise your face against him not just for hours but even days?

The difference is that Porky only uses his superior skills to defeat bosses. Everyone else is either a no lifer that has played the game 20 times over already, or using some kind of cheese he got off of youtube.

ITT: man no longer enjoys videogames but keeps playing them nonetheless, then proceeds to call other people's behavior abnormal. Can't make this shit up.

NJCluck, I realize you have the brains of a chicken, but let's not push it, my friend, I enjoy vidya games when they are good: Breath of the Wild, Witcha 3, KCD, etc. What seems to trigger you is when I correctly point out that the games YOU like are utter shite.

Reading comprehension seems to be an issue here: I beat one boss during one run for 1-2 hours for 3-4 days, that would add up to about 3- 8 hours total. That's a bit different from replaying the same game 20 times. Surely this is not a difficult concept to grasp.

Nigga, you're crying about the fact a game that is driven by gameplay and challenge doesn't play like narrative-based games.
Galaxy Brain moment.

It's a meaningless distinction.

I only finished the game once, which is not the same thing as saying i was able to beat all the bosses on the first try so what difference does it make. 20 runs. Doing a boss 20 times in a single run. Same shit, innit?

 

[Multidirectional]

I just remembered how Porky was whining in Metro thread. After playing first game on one of them Ranger difficulties, finding out the design is retarded, then proceeded to play the next one on same mode so he could bitch some more. This seems like a person who is addicted to bitching and actually goes out of his way to create reasons for himself to bitch some more. Remember Porky, if you gaze long enough into a butthurt, the butthurt will gaze back into you.

If you think BotW or KCD are narrative driven, then you are about as dumb as I assumed originally.

Also, dumb people tend to cling to some fixed concept which means nothing without context. For example, Tetris and Minesweeper are gameplay driven games, but after a while they get pretty boring. Much like FS games.

I dunno, you are the one who keeps bringing it up. Play it another 20 times, see if your perspective changes.

I kinda play what's available. Then, I comment on it objectively, unlike you butthurt fanboys. Now given that I've been playing games longer than you've been alive, of course by this point I've already played through most of the great ones, so what's left is the bottom of the barrel.

What seems to trigger you is when I correctly point out that the games YOU like are utter shite.

Trigger me? I think you should reread the conversation to realize who's been spewing insults left and right (you) and who's just been laughing at a guy making a fool out of himself (basically everyone else in this thread right now).

And... you decide to keep playing games you don't enjoy instead of doing literally anything else with your life? Isn't that a little sad?

NJCluck, who are you trying to lie to... Keep in mind, I was just posting my videos in this thread of me beating Sekiro bosses, when you and you butthurt buddies clucked their way over here, and started getting all butthurt about nothing (except me astutely pointing out all the issues with the shitty games you like).

I like vidya games in general. If the industry produces very few games of quality these days, should I abandon this entire hobby and interbreed with my cousins like some people here? I think not...

Everything gets boring "after a while" ya dumb cunt.

Point is, the "good" games you listed are primarily focused on the narrative and exploration, those are the main reasons people play them. FromSoft's games have a different design philosophy, of course they're not supposed to play the same.

I dunno, were you expecting romance options and virtual titties in Elden Ring or something? Too bad nigger, no titties for you, just a spear to the face over and over again until you git gud.

You seem upset.

Also, your argument is inherently stupid. Think about it, you can always use categorization to defend an inferior product. Oh, you can't compare my third world hovel to a skyscraper, it's a completely different design philosophy.

There is a reason why RPGs in general tend to have a mix of combat and exploration and dialogue. That's the best, most enjoyable mix, that provides the most varied and interesting type of gameplay. When you can talk and explore and fight, you don't need to create dumbass bosses that people take on for hours, because there is literally nothing else in the game.

Try again, sparky.

It's not an inferior product, it's a product with a different purpose designed accordingly.

For example, is the dildo you shove up your ass an inferior product because it can't clean the cum from your monitor while you're blasting gay porn? No, because that product wasn't designed to do that in the first place.

"Every RPG should follow the exact same formula forever"

Yeah, nah, variety is the spice of life and all that jazz.

I just wrecked this argument above. Too bad you cannot read, you little macaque.

Keep your gay fantasies to yourself, son. Your mums is more my speed.

Lol variety. FS hasn't done anything new since their formula started with Demon Souls. They just keep making it worse.

Yes, that company specializes in that type of product, and if you want a different type of product (for variety) you go to a different company. The fact that you're a fat cripple with reflexes like a plank and the attention span of a squirrel on meth doesn't mean their product is inferior - it just means it's not for you because you are inferior

It's a better option than having every RPG ever made be Twitcher 3.

Doesn't stop me from shitting all over these crappy games and their butthurt fanboys.

I beat the hardest bosses in these games 1st try, pure skill, while lobotomized pigeons like you must use cheese until your 7th run. If you got anything bad to say about my reflexes, go tell your mums, she might care (if I let her).

It's a better option than having every RPG ever made be Twitcher 3.

Except this is as dumb as all your other arguments. Witcher 3 is very different from BotW which is very different from KCD which is very different from FNV. Tons of variety already between GUD games, unlike the shit you like. Come at me, monkey-boy.

 

[Lambach]

So why are you still here crying about them?

Come at me

I'm flattered, but I don't swing that way, sorry.

Pointing out the issues with your favorite game is different from complaining about bosses. If you had triple digit IQ, monkeyboy, you would understand the difference. Alas...

[Lambach]

The problem is that those issues you're pointing out aren't even issues, per se. You can't blame FromSoft for being a spazz and a cripple that needs the "Smoothbrain toddler" difficulty option.

 

[PorkyThePaladin]

And yet as I keep telling you, monkeyboy, difficulty is not the issue (as proven by my videos). It's all about the gameplay turning to shit over the years.

 

[Lambach]

Wait, are we talking Sekiro or Elden Ring now?

Because if the former, FromSoft did simplify the mechanics and "arcaded" them compared to their other works, but the result was a simpler, yet super-polished silky smooth experience that accomplished what it set out to accomplish to damn near perfection and you and your mom can both choke on my hairy nutsack if you disagree.

If the latter, yeah, I do think there is some valid criticism there. Elden Ring did go full anime compared to something like the much slower, methodical DS 1 and I can understand why some people may dislike that. You still have the option of playing it like DS 1, though, and not use all the flashy new animu shit, but it is more difficult to pull it off. So git gud, faggot.

You'll have to excuse Copey. Complications with the diabeetus hampers him from understanding what forum he's on, much less what thread he's in. Some days he's lucky if he knows that he's on the internet.

You are so slow, monkeyboy, it's like explaining something to a wall. Let's try one more time, for the pigeon types:

FS started out with actual games, which had interesting game worlds, more exploration, etc, and bosses were just one part of the game. Over time, they keep going more and more to a game format where boss fights are pretty much everything. The boss fights keep getting more and more ridiculous, 4 phases, 3 phases, other bullshit, meanwhile the rest of the world keeps getting simpler and more bland. So essentially, chicken brains, they are becoming like fighting games, ala Street Fighter.

You can't really win at this, MedicatedPoot. Considering how much I've been abusing you and your ilk here, the more you insult me, the more you insult yourself, because if THAT GUY was able to do this to you, how dumb must you be?

I dunno, his faculties seem fine to me. He's able to remember and obsessively keep checking a forum thread about a video-game he doesn't like.

But if you're confused about all that inarticulate ape-like screeching, that's because he's something we call a "high-functioning autistic savant".

QED.

Where is this mythical thread that you're doing anything but barking the same tired nonsense you've been doing for years? Assuming it was dementia related to your corpulence was, frankly, the nicest thing I could think of to say about you. I'm sorry you find it insulting.

ER is probably too large for its own good and stretched a bit too thin, but pound-for-pound, it still offers the most exploration within the most diverse environments out of any FromSoft game, so that criticism is objectively false.

So all we have left is the same thing we had right from the start: you're crying about General Chadahn grabbing you by the pussy.
