Just a few thoughts on a game+updoots.
7 years ago
For all of you that have requests from me, I'm sorry for the delay. Life has been a bit busy, but they'll all be done shortly.
Anywho, on to the main part of this journal.
I recently acquired a game that many people consider the pinnacle of gaming: Dark souls Remastered. I have as of now sunk nearly eight hours into this game over the past week, and here's my verdict: Dark Souls Sucks.
As I've discussed with a friend, this game is almost no fun at all for the casual player. Most of the enemies are stupidly difficult, and often quite cheap, with ridiculously high health and armor, meaning many enemies are near unbeatable on the first playthrough. This game is not hard. It is simply grossly unfair, and frustrating.
And the bosses are no better, with the easiest ones having stats normally reserved for near end game bosses in other games. And some are just insane, were talking battles with two or three boss class enemies at once (Ornstein and Smough, Bell Gargoyles.) while others have bad arenas and minions to stun lock you immediately upon entry to the arena (Capra Demon, Bed of Chaos). I never felt accomplished after these fights, only a sense of "Thank God that's over."
And the online is no better, with high level players regularly invading to kill you while you're still under leveld and under equipped, for no real reason other than "Lolololo! Git Gud Skrub!"
Overall, I have no desire to play this game ever again, and likely will just trade it in at GameStop.
It should be noted that these are my personal opinions, and should be taken with a hint of salt. Any who, lemme know what you think of this game, or if you agree in the comments! Or just make an art request! Whatever floats your boat!
Have a lovely day!
