It's just intelligent world building, anon. You discover a lot about the characters and the universe through them. Just because you're a simpleton doesn't mean they're bad.

>Quality dips
What are you talking about?

You probably are experiencing some, but also make sure that on your rolls, you're releasing the button as soon as possible if you're trying to roll ASAP. You can actually even do the opposite and delay a roll for a split second if you've started it too early. Accidentally holding the roll button for a fraction of a second when I needed the roll immediately has killed me more times than I care to admit.

>Quality dips
The Four Lords are either underwhelming as bosses, specifically Seath and Bed of Chaos, or the areas that they're associated with are lackluster when compared to early-mid game zones.

Despite peoples claim, you don't constantly have to change camo, just be aware of your next stop in a similar area, but yeah still you do have to use menus a little too much

Catacombs, Dukes Archives, Demon Ruins & Lost Izalith.

All really good shit.

Four Kings was an awful boss though, granted.
>>
>>376726490
Dukes archives was decent, the catacombs are pre londo and the other two are shit
>>
>>376726791
Aside from the brightness of the fuicking lava making me half blind, Lost Izalith was great.

Archives were amazing. Great level design and fun enemies.

Catacombs weren't necessarily pre-Anor Londo. Really depends how you approached the game.
>>
>>376726490
Demon Ruins, Izalith, New Londo, Crystal Caves, Great Hollow, Ash Lake, Kiln, Tomb of Giants are all shit m8.
>>
>>376727289
Great Hollow, Ash Lake, Kiln and Tomb of Giants were all great, what the fuck are you talking about?
>>
>>376720821
felt the lever design dropped in quality after sens fortress

Nah, they're all shit.
>Hollow.
>Straight line with instant deaths and one enemy type.

>Ash Lake.

>>376728024
Great Hollow had two enemies. Mushrooms and the Basilisks.
How was Great Hollow a straight line? There were a million items that required you to platform to.
Jumping, falling, climbing different branches. It's also a sidequest area. It doesn't have to be sprawling with story/gameplay objectives.

Same applies to Ash Lake. Side area that just builds upon the world and characters. Doesn't have to be incredibly diverse in choices.

Kiln was beautiful to look at and it was a back-to-basics area. There are Knights that you just have to fight well in order to get past. Also, why would there be anything other than knights in the Kiln? They were protecting the Fire and their King.

You really didn't NEED the Sunlight Maggot for Tomb. It just helped.
Don't see what you're getting at. Brightness can be a mechanic in and of itself.

>>376727289
Imagine having such shit taste.

MGSV
>despite good level design on single locations, world-design as a whole is shite and empty
>mother base barely feels alive, only literally-whos walking around waiting to be punched like little bitches
>most of the story told through cassete tapes
>grinding as a whole, fuck that
>side ops are repetitive as fuck, they should have focused on doing things you don't get to see in main missions
>skulls should have been better written
>kidergarten-level plot holes regarding quiet
>skull face should've appeared more with a proper battle
>Sahelanthropus plot not properly finished
>lots of unfinished and rushed things
Somehow, this game is still a solid 8/10 to me

>Crystal Caves, Great Hollow, Ash Lake, Kiln, Tomb of Giants are all shit m8.


I remember the first time, like 6 years ago, when i reached for the first time the lake of ash i felt so overwhelmed by the picture of my soldier standing alone in front of the trees and the water that i didnĀ“t even realised i had a fucking hydra behind.

Nito wasn't a shit boss.
Bed of Chaos was mediocre.

Seath and 4 Kings were trash.
Especially 4 Kings. Awful boss.

Sega Just brought Bayonetta and fucking Vanquish to PC. Over the past couple years they did the same to a bunch of their cult classic games, so it may be safe to say Chrome Hounds isn't too far behind. Remember when Valkyria Chronicles got a PC version out of nowhere?
