Yeah, I've noticed that the second you criticize a souls game, people's default response is "get good".
Maybe From could design an area that doesn't have an instant full area death attack that stunlocks you. No? Oh that's "good" design somehow because it's a souls game.
Fuck off.
Thing about lots of Souls fans is that they're like the CSCI Majors of videogame fandoms.
Ask any of them if Dark Souls is hard, and they'll declare to the moon and back how difficult and punishing and merciless it is.
But ask any one fan *specifically* if x or y was difficult for them, and they'll brush it off and talk about how they did it in three tries or less and that you should get good.
Couple that with rabid "I miss the old days of difficult, cheap-ass NES games" mouth-frothing and you've got some bad apples on your hands.
Though I'm getting the vibe that it's mostly jokes here. But I get that shit on Reddit all the time.
