Huge fan of pretty much every souls game but I wish it had more accessibility & ability to customize play. I would love to share the experience of the beautiful art, creature design, music, wonderfully bleak landscapes, but then the online Gamer discussion becomes about “cheating yourself out of the experience”. Fuck that lol
They added a streamlined “Modern” control mode alongside their original “Classic” mode with motion inputs. This was an effort to make the game more accessible to newcomers to the genre, people who were intimidated by fighting games, and people who for various reasons can’t do the motion inputs necessary for special moves.
The Modern control scheme balances this ease of use by somewhat restricting the available special moves - you can do specials with one button and have access to the basic tools, but the real complex combo stuff you can only do on Classic.
It was generally a good compromise, as it was mostly the die hard crowd who were going to get into deep mechanics stuff anyway, and if someone who can’t do motion inputs wants to get far with Modern they can still do so by learning good fundamentals (which like 90% of Gamers refuse to do) alongside the simple controls
This of course made a lot of gamers very angery, including like one or two people here. “It’s woke for allowing casuals and disabled people to play in the same sandbox as me and cheat not only the game but themselves”. It’s the same argument as dark souls when you boil it down
Damn, I was hoping we had a War-Nerd-but-tankie out here somewhere
any good non-chud (and preferably non-lib) channels or podcasts etc out there about the like?
Beautiful reenactment, he had so much power in his voice
yes
Uh, yeah, I consider phlebas
Honestly that sounds amazing! I’m happy you’ve found some people to express yourself with!
And now the STORM-BLAST came, and he
Was tyrannous and strong:
He struck with his o’ertaking wings,
And chased us south along.
With sloping masts and dipping prow,
As who pursued with yell and blow
Still treads the shadow of his foe,
And forward bends his head,
The ship drove fast, loud roared the blast,
And southward aye we fled.
…
As soon as I read “STORM-BLAST” the first time, I knew that shit was metal
I kept drawing/painting/etc throughout my entire life from an early age and I hate that I have to try so hard to convince people that, yes, they can do art too! It’s not about the common value-derived definition of “talent” (the ability to apply and make money from a skill), I love seeing even rough sketches by people that haven’t done so since they were young.
This formative peer pressure and the overwhelming push to consider the monetary value in everything first has robbed us, humanity, from so much beautiful art. It’s a tragedy what capital has done, to instill this mode of thought in children to last their entire lives…
Ok, who and where’s the head white guy? 
Drill and be drilled
Respect for ppl who can tolerate it, the one time I tried it I could not do the Doogh 
will be using this idea for ttrpg at some point now, thank you
how’re you feeling today and just them socratic methoding the fuck out of whatever you say
This is so true and it’s infuriating. My experience was exclusively this and “That’s rough, maybe you should try harder? Oops, that’s our time for today!” every visit.
That’s pretty misanthropic tbh, wouldn’t would only wish those overengineered suicide machines on my worst enemies. Then again, death to america ofc
Rainbow Dash is a cop!?
Idk this is really giving Plankton regime vibes (I have only ever seen the Spongebob Movie (2004))
