I think for me I'd rather games didn't have difficulty options because most games that have them it just means hard = double damage taken, half damage dealt, and more linear scaling differences that don't add to the enjoyment of the game, whereas a game like Dark Souls is able to be perfectly balanced around the single difficulty and gives you the intended experience without having to account for each enemy to be scaled to different difficulties
Just my opinion tho I can understand people might feel differently :3
Dark Souls and other Fromsoftware games are easy people are just stupid in playing it to make things harder from them and say it is a hard game.I think for me I'd rather games didn't have difficulty options because most games that have them it just means hard = double damage taken, half damage dealt, and more linear scaling differences that don't add to the enjoyment of the game, whereas a game like Dark Souls is able to be perfectly balanced around the single difficulty and gives you the intended experience without having to account for each enemy to be scaled to different difficulties
Exactly my words. Thanks gods Elden Ring dont have difficulty, such a great game.I think for me I'd rather games didn't have difficulty options because most games that have them it just means hard = double damage taken, half damage dealt, and more linear scaling differences that don't add to the enjoyment of the game, whereas a game like Dark Souls is able to be perfectly balanced around the single difficulty and gives you the intended experience without having to account for each enemy to be scaled to different difficulties
I agree to an extent :3 I think people go in thinking they are supposed to be 'hard' games like Kaizo Mario or other rage games and then experience the game through the lens of 'this is hard' where I don't think FromSoftware even considered them difficult while making them, they just wanted to create an atmosphere and story which requires the player to be as strong as any other enemy in the game :3
I have this same exact issue, few games out there tho lock some side quests behind main quests. The only way to stop us side quest goblins.
Same shit. couldn't finish Witcher 3 because of all side stuff on a map. Got hyped by another game and didn't return to witcher yet.
Fromsoft games are hard if you dont know how to level up properly, a lot of ppl just put levels on random stats and then they get locked, cuz normal enemies just dont give sufficient souls / whatever
I went through this exact issue. I played it back in the day on xbox 360 or whatever (I'm not sure how they ever got it to run on that) never finished it, but I loved the game and wanted to play it with the "next gen" upgrade on PC.. Then last year I had a ton of unexpected time off and was determined to finish everything and finally did, but it took FOREVER. Specially the last DLC (Blood and Wine) which added a whole new huge map area, I was like YAY, but also GODDAMNIT! haha
witcher 3 has a big problem with the amount of side content and the leveling system in the game, you open the map and its like you get skullfucked by all the shit on in, awesome game though, probably has the best side quests ever
Very true, I like to go into games blind and playing Dark Souls 2 with no explanation for how ADP works (and also stupidly taking the double damage covenant at the start without realising ;-; ) made the game alot harder than it had to be :3
Sounds fun haha, never played ds2. You know people say that the dodging is awful cuz of that stat that i can't remember, but still i would like to try it, would you recommend it?
Next milestone in postponement is an upcoming new dlc leading story to W4
It's my favourite game of all time, so I definitely recommend it!
Yea, I saw that might be a thing, but didn't see anything definitive yet.
