If you didn't follow the rules of the game, you didn't beat the game. You didn't even PLAY the game. You went on a semi-interactive rollercoaster.
If that's fun to you, it's fine. It's your life.
But if you like games, you're going to engage with them on their own terms. Or stop wasting your time and go look for games you actually like playing.

Wuwa is comparable to real games though. The movement and combat is pure kino and rivals games like Sekiro and Lies of P, unlike sloppy genshin.

The main draw of the games is that you can act smug and say it was easy to anyone who criticizes the difficulty after you watched/read a guide and slogged through dozens of hours of trial and error.
It's the elitist ingroup mentality and sunk cost behavior that creates the fanaticism, which sells the games to other people like a virus.

I've been playing games since the 90s. There's never been a more insufferable fanbase.
And this is what I'm talking about. As a souls fan, your impulse is to immediately question my "gamer credentials" as if anyone cares.
The majority of people playing these games look up guides, give up, or grind until they eventually get lucky. Most people aren't able to beat the games without assistance. There's a reason the youtube guides have millions of views. But the the "you're not a real gamer if you don't beat this" mentality is the draw. Even if you needed to use a guide, you just pretend that you didn't when you tell other people to git gud. It's a form of status signalling in gaming.
It's a plague on games because now if you criticize difficulty balance you get attacked by a hoard of lemmings.

absolute untrue, but guides were a thing in the 90's. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zc4xXSwYRos I would force you to play that and see how your view changes.

>It's a plague on games because now if you criticize difficulty balance you get attacked by a hoard of lemmings.
because Americans like you turned video games into glorified hallway shooters, cod clones because you don't have the brain for anything else.

Miyazaki himself stated the he sucks at video games and uses everything available to beat stuff in elden ring.
All the people who handicap themselves for the sake of being smug are just retards.
The game is supposed to be challenging some people get so good they can do bosses without getting hit, others will die on that same boss for hundreds of deaths and never beat it. I personally spent 2 days on malenia before I beat her on my first playthrough on release, point is if you're challenging yourself and having fun while doing it who cares what the smugfags think?

You can rationalize it however you want, but if the kinds of people that cheat in single player games weren't aware deep down that they were huge losers and patently worse human beings than non-cheaters, these threads wouldn't exist.
