You know what makes me mad? They hire shitters like this as playtesters. I wouldn't care if they didn't influence dev decisions, but they do and so I only hold contempt for people like this.

>>389391801
I don't get how you can be so casual

>post webm
>get 40 million (You)'s of the same reaction

>>389391801
>video is posted to shame a person who fails to pass a level
>people still dislike the video anyway
real minds at work here

>>389391181
Its a mix between mario and dark souls.

>>389391181
>everything that cannot be easily beaten by button mashing is Dark Souls of X
I enjoyed DS, but the whole DS of X has to fucking end for fuck's sake.

Is dark souls genuinely the hardest game some people have ever played??

>>389392530
no, but my le git gud memes

price the son xD

>They hire shitters like this as playtesters
That's bullshit, a playtester has to be competent enough to actually test more than the first third of the first level.

They changed the title of the video

still waiting...

no? nothing?

well you had your chance, I'm outta here

>>389392869
wait a minute, that card

>>389391801
I'd rather this person review Cuphead than any of you.

>>389392530
Dark souls is only reasonably challenging at best. People like to put it on a pedestal because it's a recent AAA title that actually requires you to react instead of spamming or holding a button.

>make unoriginal platformer
>watch streamer playtest it
>he has trouble jumping and shooting at the same time
>he stands still and trade hits with every enemy
>he gives up after 3 screens of progress

I removed all traces of difficulty afterwards

How Miyazaki overcame his focus group result will forever be a mystery to me.

The only hard thing about df is understanding what's going in the screen.

Are people STILL falling for this viral marketing campaign? Microsoft execs must be wringing their mangy little hands to how well this worked. Bait is the ultimate marketing technique.

Path of Exile
The Witcher games
Prey had pretty much the difficulty curve of DS turned to 11. Game is retardedly hard until you understand how to abuse some mechanics so hard you will rek pretty much anything in the game.
And I don't play a lot of modern shit so I'm not sure, but I do remember even COD MW2 on hard being 10 times harder than DS. If you want older examples I have a lot.
The games are not actually bad, but the "Dark Souls is the hardest game ever" needs to die. The game is hard mostly because you are a noob with no knowledge of the game, and the game also has some cheesy instakills if you don't know about them beforehand. While the difficulty curve is not as retarded as prey above, it still is much easier when you got the basics down.

PS:Dark Souls actually has an easy mode, it's called summoning another player.

You didn't read about the playtester that kept rotating around in half life 2?

Or the playtester that wouldn't try to sneak inside a building in dishonored because the guard told them they couldn't get in?

>>389391181
Can someone post that video where a reviewer has trouble with the tutorial? I haven't seen it yet.

>>389391801
I can see that retro analog film overlay getting really fucking old within 10 minutes.

Is cuphead the dark souls of games?

Good thing you can turn it off.

>>389395173
I would have said that too if I hadn't met those kind of people IRL.

>>389395207
I think it might have been a joke

>renamed "Cuphead is a hard game" into "Dean's Shameful 26 Minutes Of Gameplay"
can every game journalist have their family executed in front of them, out in the public, then waterboarded to death
