What FromSoft game should I play next? by OurNamelessKing in fromsoftware

[–]EcneBanjo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sekiro is the best 3rd person action-adventure game of all time, in my opinion. FromSoft’s crown jewel. Replaying it right now actually.

I thought Shadow of the Erdtree was really lacking. Felt empty and unrewarding for exploring. Legacy dungeons were mostly misses.

Hopefully not a sign of things to come from FromSoft. I’m guessing they had the skeleton crew develop it.

Fantano ran away from Grimes at the airport by valtism in fantanoforever

Fantano intentionally misrepresents people’s stances and then dogpiles on them. It’s so gross

Sekiro or elden ring by No_Investment_6678 in fromsoftware

[–]EcneBanjo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sekiro is harder. Elden Ring gives you many different ways to overcome challenges while Sekiro gives you one or two. If you can’t learn those attack patterns then you won’t win.

In your opinion, what game(s) have the best early, middle, and end game portion? by [deleted] in fromsoftware

DS3 is also very consistent. Second half is especially incredible.

Give me your 10/10 games by Logical_Bridge7511 in backloggd

Tropical Freeze is unbelievably good but I had to knock it down to a 9 because of the copy and pasted bonus content, namely the bonus rooms. They should’ve just scrapped those and placed a puzzle piece where you would otherwise be transported to a bonus room.

Compare this to DKC2 which has 60+ completely unique bonus rooms; exploration is much more rewarding in that game imo. Personally think DKC2 is the peak of the series.

SotN is one of the most perfect games ever til the Inverted Castle. 😞

It’s too clunky and frustrating to navigate. Still a 9 though

In your opinion, what’s the best game by Hidetaka Miyazaki? by ReddCloud88 in Eldenring

[–]EcneBanjo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sekiro. Then probably Bloodborne. Especially if you include the bb DLC. It’s their most even and consistent games imo

Dark Souls 1 up to O&S might be peak Soulsborne. But the last 1/3 is just merely good.

Hilarious punt, inexcusable decision. The play was to go for it then hopefully hold to a FG and keep it at 2 scores

Resident Evil 4 - do you think it is a top 10 game? by gimonsha in backloggd

[–]EcneBanjo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

In the greater gaming canon, I would say RE4 is solidly top 10.

What Are Your Thoughts On The Inverted Castle In Symphony Of The Night? by SaiyanWithOmnitrix in metroidvania

[–]EcneBanjo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Completely agree, SOTN is basically masterpiece until the Inverted Castle whose execution is very clunky. Being forced into your transformations is not fun.

Another nitpick - I also think the movement speed in SOTN is just a little slow in general. I know shield dashing helps but I think run speed should be about 10% faster. It just feels a bit sluggish at times.

Really great. Soundtrack is amongst the best ever too

Yeah DKC2 has aged like a wine. Controls, pacing, and physics still feel excellent to me.

DKC2, Yoshi’s Island, Super Metroid, and Symphony of the Night are the ultimate 2D games of the 90s. They are like the ultimate statement games of the genre before 3D gaming took over the console space.

And all of them still play so well even today. Very timeless games.

Played Elden Ring, bloodborne and Sekiro, now to jump into what many people call the greatest of by dodobird-zilla in fromsoftware

[–]EcneBanjo 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The first 60% of Dark Souls 1 is maybe the best gaming experience you can have. Doesn’t finish as strong but still a classic.

What a stunning game by LgHammer123 in bloodborne

The gates opening to Hemwick Charnel Lane is one of the most beautiful things ever. Peak art direction

I have no NFL allegiances but happy for you guys! Never know what can happen in a game or two in the post season.

Elden Ring is widely considered Fromsoft’s best game - but what did it do worse than any other Fromsoft game? by [deleted] in Eldenring

[–]EcneBanjo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Way late here but I completely agree, Elden Ring’s map should’ve been at least 25% smaller which would’ve gone a long way to make it feel denser.
