You have 30 seconds to name video game that has Death Grips in it.

what did he mean by this?

>>381722671
Meaning that you die in the game, because the game is designed to actually kill you, instead of *almost* kill you like most games do now.

Casuals hate dying.

>>381722484
agreed. it's full of so many poor design choices that they lifted from old (ie:bad) games that did those things only because of limitations. only good thing it has going for it is atmosphere.

Would dual-wielding this make you wield Death Grips?

>>381722937
. same enemy placement each time. it wouldn't kill them to randomize at least mimics. gets boring and counter to what they're trying to convey, which is a "hardcore" experience. becomes really rote and predictable and easy.

bravo fromsoft

>>381723240
That would break too many systems such as: messages, blood stains, other player blood stains,and invasions to some extent. They weren't trying to convey a "hardcore" experience with demon's souls or dark souls. Demon's souls was just regarded as incredibly hard so Namco used that as their ad campaign for dark souls. They've been on the record that they just wanted to make a game they liked to play. It wasn't until DSII and III did their design change to intentionally be some sort gamer killer.

>>381723302
go away you irish fuck

>>381723302
I've hit plenty of enemies through doors and such. It's just not very consistent.

Actually

Battlefield Hardline has Death Grips

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WqMWDhRNBwI

>>381723651
Exactly. Dark Souls is HARD, but FAIR.

;)

Darksiders 2 literally has a death grip.

>>381723651
Fuck people who say this.

It can take hours to get up to where the dragon is on your first playthrough. By that time, you'll have forgotten the fact that you ever saw it. All they had to do was have the dragon start on the other side of the bridge, and it'd be fine.

>>381724032
I always hear that excuse but there's a few problems with it. fior starters, the games force you to go through the exact areas over and over with huge gaps between checkpoints, unlike a normal game that's spaced reasonably, so as not to waste the players time proving and reproving what they've already demonstrated they're capable of overcoming with ease. it clashes basically and doesn't really fit with that design philosophy they're going for.

>break too many systems

how exactly would it "break" something by having an enemy jump out from behind a wall to the right instead of the left occasionally? sounds like nonsense. but I guess the typical dark souls fan just wants mindless repitition like the days of old where you memorized levels to a T.

>>381724350
YOU'RE INTERN

>>381724350
I don't get death grips.

>>381724627
>THIS GAME IS TOO REPETETIVE BUT I DIE ALL THE TIME

So you admit that the game shows you what's going to happen, and you fail anyway.

>>381724895
That's because you're noided. I bet you listen to Coldplay or Imagine Dragons.

>>381724936
Not really, most of what I listen to is instrumental prog rock tracks that are over 20 minutes long.

The space between checkpoints are not that far. I don't even know what to say to that. Each one has about five minutes or so of expert playing inbetween. If you are new, you start wondering why there isn't a bonfire behind every enemy you kill and it winds up feeling like an hour. If it's frustrating "reproving" then you have to be doing the content extremely quickly. Otherwise it may have been because you were careful and slow which means you haven't really mastered the area yet.

It does break systems but I didn't think I needed to explain it:
The blood stains are supposed to be hints of how other players died. If enemies were random they wouldn't work. Getting your souls back from the last place you died is supposed to give you motivation to at least made it as far as you had before. If you could be killed by an ambush that wasn't there before, it wouldn't make as much sense and would instead just be an arbitrary award for getting through more or less content depending on the RNG. Messages worked pretty well before the game became meme status and they were useful ways to warn of traps that you might not have been perceptive enough to see. It doesn't work if everything is random. Invaders are usually at a disadvantage other than the fact that they can use enemies to their advantage. This would make them overwhelmingly good or weak in different scenarios depending entirely on how the enemies are spawned.

What the hell, man. I'm talking about stuff like Terry Riley and Mike Oldfield.

I don't get it. It's just learning some patterns and abusing your roll.

I guess the enviroments were neat? Is that it?

>>381722484
w2c?

>>381723548
At that point in the game if you aren't looking at every new area like "this is a trap" you kinda deserved it. The game's entire reputation is built on being stuffed to the brim with bullshit death scenarios, you'd think people would figure out to take things slow.

>>381722937
Everything after Anor Londo, since the game no longer cares about being inter-connected and just hands you a teleporter to solve the dead-end problems with the rest of the world. It's lazy in comparison to the maze-like layout of the first half of the game.

>>381725832
Damn you are like the best player in the world and you are fucking genius at the same time. Leave some pussy for us bro!

>>381725957
I wasn't even bragging. I assume everyone beats the game because it's mostly just trial and error learning some patterns.

It's kinda boring

Only thing there's actually a problem with in dark souls is pvp and coop balance, everything else is pretty subjective and the guy who made that shirt legitimately sounds extremely butthurt that he's bad at video games in general.

>>381726074
Why does everyone's name start with J

>>381725832
I think you're underestimating how truly 100% terrible people are at video games.

Fuck, most people don't even understand the most basic kind of things in first person shooters; which is the easiest genre there is. Point gun at enemy, press 1 button to shoot, kill. And they can barely do it, they just barely scrap by.

The amount of people that think dark souls is "so hard iimpossible XD" far exceeds the number of gamers who are actually competent at all genres and don't find the Souls-style of games to be all that challenging. They're harder games than most for sure, but they're just that. Games.

>>381725706
Five minutes of doing boring shit is a lot. Say a boss takes you a few tries to beat, that's something close to 20 minutes wasted doing the same mindless fights you've already mastered ages ago. Meanwhile the boss fights themselves are usually just a couple minutes long. There's a reason everyone rushes past the levels ignoring all enemies. But even if you do that it can be incredibly tedious, especially when elevators are involved.
