GameInformer - The Final Level

I agree with him on this one, Souls' games are meant to be a challange.

 

[Tranquil]

Oh well, guess I won't be getting it then.

 

[DonJorginho]

An easy mode is best for sales, but these games sell a shit ton anyway so they haven't got to bend the knee just yet.

Can't wait to go through 4 Dualsenses on my way to completing this badboy!

 

[DunDunDunpachi]

Umbasa. This shows the team understands the game they are remaking.

 

[Thing on a Spring]

There shouldn't be. If you don't have the time, patience or desire to learn how the game works then that's totally fine but don't expect the sharp edges to be filed down and have everything bubble wrapped for you.

 

[FunkMiller]

Quite right too. Staying true to From’s intentions, as is right and proper.

 

[#Phonepunk#]

but how is Polygon going to manage to review this thing?

 

[Aceofspades]

Developer shouldn't compromise their vision just to cater to gamers at all. If you don't like their game then simply don't buy it.

End of story

Truth!

I can't wait for their "Demon's Souls has a trans representation problem, and we should talk about it" article.

 

[MiguelItUp]

I would hope there wouldn't be. I mean, it's a Souls game.

I agree with this. There shouldn't be.

But they dont respect muh time! 1111

 

[Beelzebubs]

I mean it being a remake is a kind of Easy Mode in itself. People now have years of experience playing Souls games.

 

[JTCx]

A man of vision

 

[vpance]

They need to make black world tendency easier to maintain, or a joining BWT server only option.

 

[Warnen]

he is technically right

 

[Portugeezer]

How can this beeeeereee

 

[SlimySnake]

I was shocked at how easy the game was with a mage build. i only played the first level and i remember having what seemed like infinite mana and i was just killing everyone with one hit spells from far away.

i think the lack of checkpoints is what triggers people into thinking these are hard games, but if you know how to unlock shortcuts back to bonfires, these are very easy games.

yes, the bosses can be hard but you can easily cheese them with multiple NPCs or online coop summons. these games are super easy.

I think this is my favourite post in 2020

 

[thelastword]

As it should be. Demon Souls is a hardcore game. It is not for cookie bakers and cushion knitters.

 

[balls of snow]

All i hear are the screams of easy mode players. Based sony delivers.

 

[Self]

Now I can sleep well again.
Thanks Bluepoint...

GIT GUD SCRUBS

 

[Senua]

Oh well, guess I won't be getting it then.

 

[Alebrije]

Pro tip.

 

[deriks]

If they do, it will change the design of the game

Git gud

The genius of Soulsborne design is that Miyazaki always puts in a way to cheese his bosses, so you CAN beat them once you've found a working cheese. After this many games, I don't believe it could possibly be coincidental that every boss has a known cheese tactic.

 

[Tranquil]

I like fun games.

 

[Senua]

I like fun games.

Overcoming challenges is fun to me

 

[StreetsofBeige]

No doubt the difficulty level will be gimped a bit so the average gamer getting a PS5 at launch can get through the game.

 

[dorkimoe]

Oh well, guess I won't be getting it then.

Same. This was gonna be my first. But I’d like to try it on normal or easy if indeed it is that hard

 

[Tranquil]

Same.

But if the challenge is making me sweat in my chair and I have to take a break and calm myself after every boss battle it's not fun.

To each their own though.

 

[cormack12]

The quick restarts will take a lot of the pain out of these games.

 

[Senua]

Damn I guess I don't get that engrossed as you, actually sounds pretty cool tbh. intense!

Don't be sorry, be better.

If this ever gets released on PC they'll probably be a mod somewhere to add an easy mode option.

 

[Werewolf Jones]

The pleb filter stays. Getting punished and forcing you to learn to overcome things is a hard experience but its like riding a bike, once you learn you'll never lose it.

 

[DunDunDunpachi]

Yep. That will play a much bigger role than I think people realize.

Hotline Miami would've been just another indie arcade shooter if dying and restarting took 20 seconds to load. The breakneck pace was central to its appeal.

 

[Tranquil]

I really get into games.

Sorry? I never said I was sorry, bub.

Nice. How long did it take you to pull that one out of your ass?

Gavin Moore has clearly stated no difficulty change at all.

You hate to see it.

Fair play to you

You‘ve made a sensible decision to not play a game you feel will be too hard or too much for you, instead of bitching and moaning about it like some other people do.

These games don’t have to be for everyone.

 

[iHaunter]

Sorry? I never said I was sorry, bub.

It's a quote from God of War.

Some people love it some people don't. I'm clearly in the minority.

 

[SLoWMoTIoN]

Sad, because the game is too easy as is.
