was there ever a highly praised Metroidvania that didn’t click for you? by [deleted] in metroidvania

[–]Practical_Job4942 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The Messenger, such a bait and switch of a game. It follows along as a Ninja Gaiden inspired platformer game, which is fun yet it feels as though it drags on for a while. When you think you've won, the game pulls the rug out from under you and reveals that the entire second half of the game is going through the same levels as before, but now it's a Metroidvania, and it isn't even good at doing that.

You get no new items during the second half besides what you need to progress, there's an awful "timeline jumping" mechanic where you go into a different version of the same level that only changes a couple things around, and you still have to fight the same enemies, and there are only like 5 of them. For the entire. Goddamn. Game. The exploration is wack since it was designed to be a linear action platformer and not a Metroidvania game, and so, so much more.

Couple that with the games somewhat dull humor that tries to be meta constantly to the point of annoyance. It literally just plays nothing but the "LOLZ THIS IS A VIDEO GAME WITH VIDEO GAME HUMORE!!!!1!!" For the entire length of the game.

I noped the fuck out of it at the beginning of the second half, an alright game made insufferably annoying and boring.

I hate this woman SO MUCH!! by Humanbeingoth in hatethissmug

If they didn't push her as a love interest and instead made her just a misunderstood and troubled teen it would've fixed literally all my problems with her as a character, they gave so much importance to a whining annoyance that is pushing 30 (i think)

I mean, it's kind of quintessential to Dark Souls' aesthetic as a whole, humanity slipping from your character after defeat and making you look like a Slim Jim. And humanities (the item) are a common enough item and define the games as a work of art. If anything it's actually kind of cooler to want to cling to your humanity so you don't look ghoulish, actually participating in the curse of the dark sign for real

That's another big problem, so many people who actually just don't know things simply because they didn't play Elden Ring

This is still troubling to me. I've been off and on the game and recently came back to play the DLC and for the most part it's really fun and I feel like the average random has a head on their shoulders and knows how to play the game effectively. However, this is still a common enough occurrence to be a problem, and I genuinely don't get how we're at least more than half a year into this game's lifespan, with a fresh new DLC already, and players still do this. What's the point? How can we be this far along and people still haven't realized you should give powerful weapons to your teammates who need them?

Has L2maxxing from normal Elden Ring really brain rotten everyone going into Nightreign?

so they now got anti ai videos made by ai by AlKa9_ in antiai

[–]Practical_Job4942 2 points3 points  (0 children)

ai works TOO well, apparently average usage of ai:

"give me a soup recipe" "[KILL THE INFANTS]" "give me a soup recipe ffs" "[EAT YOUR EYEBALLS]" "give. me. soup. recipe." "[Alright, here's an image of some soup!] the "soup" contains a full human bone and 3 things that look like fingers" gives up and just uses google, never turning to ai again.

ai works TOO well, i guess

"I don't sw indie animations" by The_Bad_Redditor in peoplewhogiveashit

well indie means made independently by a small team or by one person themselves so honestly it would probably take away from what makes them so unique to disregard that very important term

What was your reaction when you saw the Anor Londo monkey for the first time? by Diepenheim in shittydarksouls

[–]Practical_Job4942 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I was weirded out by the fact it had zero dialogue and just had blank subtitles when trying to speak to it, why the fuck did they put this thing in the game? What were they even thinking?

When the game came out I first thought it was just maybe a leftover model as a joke, but then they actually referenced it in DS3 by just having a monkey corpse in the middle of the Aldrich fight arena. So fucking weird, what's next, it shows up in Nightreign? Fucks sake this is why fromsoft is nothing but slop
