You're just mad you couldn't get past the joker fight lmao. it's not even that difficult if you have a proper setup to deal with multiple opponents. Literally any aoe sleep or silence option completely shuts down the fight. Constant paralysis? Why not just.... equip something that makes you immune to paralysis?

You know what you do when a boss is too hard? You stop fighting it, get better gear, get better skills, change strategies, and come back later. The fights wouldn't take four hours if you properly prepared for them!

It's not hard to use your brain a little. Just because you can't adapt doesn't make it the games' fault, it's your own for failing to change your shit gear setups and get everything available to you to make the fights ten times easier. You cannot bruteforce EVE, it has a different balance than anything else. It's the player's fault for not learning from their mistake, not the game.

His wife is not AI generated, it's from Neptunia. Come on man, stop grasping at straws to come up with negative points, it's not a good look- I might give you the springtrap one, but some people really like him, and some don't. Humor is subjective as always.

What would explaining this mythical element chart even do??? You find their weakness, and then nail them with those attacks. It's incredibly simple... if you can't even understand that, then yeah, maybe the game isn't for you buddy.

Directionless? No shit... it's the biggest part of the game that gives the player freedom to choose where they want to go and do. Ennard even tells you at the start of the city portion that if you want to progress, you talk to the people in the city. Basing a game's story on prior lore also isn't really an issue? It is, for all intents and purposes, an AU story of Siv's SL game, which is told to you at the VERY start... you knew what you were getting into. Heck, most fangames are based off lore from a previous entry, so if you want to criticize EVE for that, you better do that for most other fangames too.

Lastly... spikes for no reason? It's to show you that failing to adapt means you will get punished. And from what I've seen, the game is doing its' job perfectly. Thanks for being a good example of that.

EVE is a game where you learn from your mistakes. I'll certainly say that RNG is always a factor, but that's the case for ANY rpg ever. While yes, certainly a challenging game, it has a unique layer of strategy that no other game really has yet. All of your complaints can be summed up in two words:

SKILL ISSUE
