"Dark Souls require no skill; it requires only memorization.

>>382337167
but good memory is skill, you learn the mechanics of the game and you get better at this, this fuckhead doesn't know what' he's talking about

you can apply this logic to any game

I know this is the most obvious b8 in the world, but all skill is memory

>fat nigger-lover
>completely misinterpreting how to play games

I guess careful timing and position is nothing but memorization too. Hopefully this is one of the guys who locks himself in his bathroom and blows his head off, looks like one.

>that fat pomy cunt that looks like the younger brother to that faggot Alan Carr
At least one of these two tries to be funny.

Pattern recognition is a skill, as is putting the knowledge of said pattern into practice. A game would literally have to play itself for it to require no skill. I mean, fuck, even Kirby games take at least a little bit of skill to complete.

Dark Souls requires no memorisation, it only requires you were born before '95 and played DOOM or Quake 1, so you know what circlestrafing is.

>>382337167
Yes. I remember playing it for the first time. I only died like 2 or 3 times to some bosses.
it's a fucking easy game.

You learn that timing and positioning through memorization. That's exactly what Greg means.

>Hopefully this is one of the guys who locks himself in his bathroom and blows his head off, looks like one.
That's a lot of salt.

Holy shit, how tall is Greg? Aisha's already a gigantic bitch. Or most of the time she's surrounded by manlets.

That's one tall bastard.

Where'd he say this? Out of curiosity.

You can master every game with this logic. See what the enemy does, do the counter/evade at the right time like you memorized.

>Aisha's already a gigantic bitch
she's only 6 ft tall, tall for a woman but still not giant
most men are taller than her, she just always wears high heels

Don't know if you play fighters, but that's how you win tournaments Couple it with tactics to force your opponent to do something, and you made a read.

>>382337523
True. Even skill for twitch based gameplay is based on muscle memory.

Dark Souls doesn't really test mechanical skill, yeah, but there aren't a lot of games that do.
>In-depth action games
>Fighting games
>SOME shooters
>RTS
Most games have a tailor-made experience for the player to grow in to, and players have a pretty similar journey with them in terms of how skilled they are. More accurately, how skilled the game makes them feel. Dark Souls has people reporting a wide variety of stories where some bosses thought to be easy had them stuck for hours, and bosses thought to be hard to done in after one try. So there isn't a lot mechanical skill demanded of you, the skill ceiling is very low there, but keeping a good head on your shoulders and understanding how to tackle an encounter is a skill stratosphere.

A well-crafted sense of scale and atmosphere are the best parts of the bosses, once they become "video game boss man" to you, you can see that they're actually not that hard.

>not knowing one of the most basic traits of schizophrenia is disorganised thinking
What a complete dick - that's a little like saying even a paraplegic can master walking. It's blatantly incorrect and vaguely offensive. Isn't this fucker meant to be PC? Do psychotics not count as ""oppressed"" because they don't have a lobby or a hashtag on twitter, and they don't start riots?

To an extent, sure. But I'm sure he's only saying that because the couldn't beat the game.

>Memorizing patterns is a skill worthy of praise
Memorization is a skill, but it's the equivalent of being a "nice guy". Anyone can do it, it's not worthy of any sort of praise.
Video games are entertainment. Don't jerk yourself off because you beat a game that is designed to be beaten by the lowest common denominator.

>>382337167
Jesus this guy is still being forced hard, you'd think after a few years he'd burn through all his connections when he brings nothing to the table. Not even views.

That other fag leaving is the only real attention they have ever got

>>382337167
No idea who he is but, yes he is.

You don't need quick reactions as most enemies move like they are submerged in water.
You just need to die few times, remember how enemies move and when you can attack, and boom, thats it, done.
There is no decision making like the one in online games where you have to think trough what you are about to do because you can basically get any response, no, you always get the same exact thing you have to remember the patterns.
