Difficulty options in hard games

#62

I think bosses should have lower health but not low health

KH critical mode is an amazing example

Bosses are still tanky but you do have better damage

It essentially turns it into dark souls

sniff why?
What have I ever done to you but discuss stuff with ya?

Besides you cant handle this heat, you think that easy looking boss is hard and have trouble in SOULS.

I’d sit down if I we were you and stick to easy or very easy in games.
Might be more your speed.

:p

All this stops the moment you say you’re sorry.

Correction

Like souls in certain areas

#67

to some people yes, not everyone though

#68

Like I don’t know

THE NICHE MARKET THESE GAMES ARE AIMED AT

EVERYONE ELSE HAS THEIR EASY GAMES

WE WANT OUR HARD MEDAL GAMES

#69

not to mention the optional, easier and harder areas with their own loot that make certain fights easier and functions as the basis of the pacing of the game.
lol fuck going back and leveling, i"ll just flip this to easy and go facetank the boss hurrdurr

“Easy mode” in dark souls means becoming a co-op endentured servant after you’ve made too many mistakes and gone so hollow you’re getting one-tapped because you can’t git gud.
Now you have to go help someone who isn’t hollow so you can eventually overcome it yourself.
You git gud or die trying.

That’s dark souls.
Jolly cooperation.

Or you know invading them and murdering their run so you can eat their soul, consume more levels and get ahead that way.

People don’t just like the souls series because it’s difficult and you hurrdurr dodge roll a lot.
We don’t just say git gud for the memes.

you’ll still have that no ones taking that away,

I literally just explained this to you

#72

yeah and i explained a trophy would still award that sense of acomplishment you want

#73

Das better.
Lmao.

I do agree with what you said in a sense.
Like bosses have high hp, but if you figure out a weak point, or an optimal time to attack, they take more damage, potentially lowering how long it takes.

As for the the original point, I honestly dont care what difficulty people play on.
But I don’t get playing on easy or even normal in most games.

Any time I do, I’m just beyond bored.

I usually make fun of people who do play on lower difficulties but its just to tease.

As for souls games, I dont think they should add an easy mode.
Honestly if they do, it would lose itself in the process, and have no real point.

Like souls isnt entirely story driven.
So take away the challange, what remains?

Seriously, souls isnt that hard.

Just takes patience is all.

Btw I’m sorry I said you should play on easy.
I didnt mean it.

Lmao xD

And then I explained that having the game itself be difficult to beat is an even better reward

The ending itself is a reward that only you and people as good as you get

Everything you experienced is a reward for being good rather than something anyone can see on lower difficulties

Plus everyone who normally would Play on an easier difficulty actually has a frame of reference for what you did

#75

theres no one saying it should happen people are just saying it could multiple diffs could benefit the game more than it would lose if there were loses

#76

Except it comes at the cost of the target market who is more important than anyone else

So even if it more gain then loss

It’ll still lose more

And that’s if an easy mode is good

#77

the more i listen the more i get the hint of elitism

#78

Okay what’s your point?

That’s the point of a medal game

A bragging point even if you don’t brag about it

Though elitist usually treat others worse which I don’t

Unless they’re dumb or rude but that’s beyond elitism

#79

People that want easy mode can go open up cheat engine for free and godmode through dark souls

Its as pointless as it sounds none of the items or multiplayer mechanics matter like that.

Its funny dark souls has no anti-cheat but no one bothers cheating. There’s nothing to get out of it. You’ve got half the game, no one’s being elitist we’re all just advocates of learning and jolly cooperation.
Or invasions.

my point is if your opinion is driven by elitism its narrow

#81

Ya well the “elitists” are the target market

No other game has to be made for us

Pokemon doesn’t need a hard mode

Just don’t touch our games
