Weirdo recluse who rambles about things you probably don't care about. I doodle things occasionally and make videos about Dark Souls. 18+ only. Taken

as if there aren't already enough videos critiquing this game. I tried to add something new to the conversation at least. youtu.be/zTQodW-2EWU

modern gaming is all over the shoulder narrative games, co-op shooters that get forgotten in one week, celebrity cameos, and remakes. if you're lucky you get a licensed spin off

I guarantee RE9 is going to get overshadowed by the code veronica remake just like RE8 got overshadowed by RE4R. why put resources into original titles when you can just pump out remakes?

to be honest though, a lot of the points being used to defend this could have been (and probably were) used to defend bethesda's horse armor back in the day. I dunno man, I think paid updates are bad on principle, just release the game in a completed state please

tbh I don't have strong feelings about pride month, but I will say that celebrating it is infinitely less harmful than celebrating other forms of collective identity like nationalism or religion. both of those things have and continue to sow death and suffering worldwide

@JeanJacketFella I own that game but never beat it tbh. it's been over a decade since I played it last so I barely remember it

obviously people who play a modded version of a game are experiencing a different version of the game and that needs to be taken into account, but I see no issues with modders actively experimenting with games they love. entirely new games have been birthed that way

I'm not seeing anyone even attempting to offer a critique as to why this mod is bad other than a vague "it makes the game easier". actually try to articulate why you think this mod's changes are bad instead of just broadcasting how much of a fucking loser you are

"modding games is anti-art" is boring, unimaginative, essentialist nonsense. modding is active engagement in game design. some mods work well, others may not, but if we all agree that game design is an art, then making alterations to game design is participation in said art

PSA: for those who find DS2's mechanics add too much friction, there is a mod by the talented AoiYozora (Seeker of Fire, Bearer of the Curse) named Player Enhancements, which lets you walk during estus, change direction easier when attacking, slower durability loss, adp changes

@fromsoftserve I don't agree with every change that this mod makes but I think modding in general is great and healthy for the medium/industry. I can only assume the people throwing a fit over this only see playing games as a substitute for actual accomplishments lol

@fromsoftserve "modding games is ant-art" is such an insanely regressive take considering a significant number of game developers got their start as modders. I don't see how people actively experimenting with games they love isn't something amazing and unique to the medium of video games

@Emilk010 it's really obvious that certain parts of DS2 just weren't playtested whatsoever, the mimic is a really egregious example. probably because it had a really troubled development compared to the other games in the series

@altpepsi look, if you're trying to advocate for a christianity that's more accepting to gays, then I think that's noble, but you have to remember you're going up against centuries of homophobic conditioning. it's pretty likely that these religions are just designed to oppress us

@altpepsi no, christian theologians back then explicitly said it was bad because it was unnatural (by their objectively incorrect definition of "natural" that is). thomas aquinas who most christians worship and cite as an authority on their idiotic dogma specifically argued that
