Thread 717744052

And I'm tired of fromsoft drones defending it.

Of course the game is difficult. Half of the difficulty is dealing with shitty programming, bullshit and bad design with the excuse of difficulty and git gud.

The camera is dogshit. Like absolutely dogshit. I can't think of games with worse cameras than this one. Camera distance is too low and half of the time it's looking to the ground or changing directions. Specially near walls. You are looking at graphics clipping and monster legs and the ground because fromsoft can't manage to make a good camera after years and years.
>Small company please understand
Lock on doesn't even work, it unlocks or focuses the enemy you don't want. I can't even understand the logic behind it, does it focus the enemy you have on front, does it focus the nearest enemy, I swear it follows no logic. Why the fuck would you want to focus a grunt 50 meters away when you have a boss right next to you that you are fighting.

Why do bosses have different lockon points anyways? Why do they let you target a dragons ankle or chest instead of just the head? Don't let me get started with big enemies fights with its 50% of the fights in this game. They have chicken legs, constantly moving and the camera doesn't adapt to them.

Making a good camera isn't even difficult. Many games have ok cameras. If you have touched any game engine you can make an aceptable camera in like an afternoon. They can't even manage that.

And let's talk about hitboxes. They are shit. You can even use mods to show the hitboxes and you can objectively prove they don't fit the animations and models at all. Why????

Why does your character hit every wall but enemy attacks can go through walls? Attacks that hit you don't hit you and attacks that do not hit you, hit you. Combine that with the miserable camera, it's a horrible experience.
And what about the AoE spam? If deducing hitboxes it's already difficult, let's talk about the puking enemies do on screen. They spam attacks and don't stop moving like a crack head, and they jump and don't have rest windows. Of course it's more difficult if you don't let the player play.

Also why do they insist on making platforming in these games? Its shit. Your character gets stuck on geometry half of the time because why make a plain ground. Again, hitboxes are shit and fall damage is shit and doesn't make sense. Its horrible, horrible.

And the inputs are also bad. Why, the fuck, in God's mercy, do you decide to put the dash button into the roll button, making one core action have half a second of delay, while other inputs do not have delay. You put the core dodge mechanic into an input delay. Instead of you know, using another button or the joystick for running LIKE ANY OTHER GAME.

Also input buffering. Let's buffer attacks because why fucking not. They don't get registered half of the time either, so you have to pray the game understood the input buffering you want, managing stamina and all.

This with the shitty mechanics enemies and delayed attacks, is the game expecting you to memorize every attack and animation like an autist
>Hahahah you flinched, hahahaha you flinched, panic roll
How are you supposed to know the enemy is going to do a faint attack? Answer: you aren't supposed to. You are supposed to bash your head against the wall until you memorize every pattern like a retard. Why make a game feel fluid, let's standardize bad design.

Let me tell you a thing EVERY GAME CAN BE """"GOOD"""" IF YOU MEMORIZE ALL DESIGN FLAWS. Its not a feature, it's just bad design justified with "gut gud" and bad programming being justified. If any other company made half of what fromsoft does people would blame them more harshly. But because they are japanese and they have a monopoly on these kind of games, let's suck their cocks.

People have made souls their whole personality and they invested thousands and thousands of hours in these games learning every stupid detail, so they justify bad design and any criticism because they get offended, Any attack to fromsoft it's an attack to them and their lives.

The thing is that the game isn't even difficult, it just uses bad programming as an excuse. You use summons, you break the enemies AI and you get free windows. You use distance attacks or broken ashes of war, you cheese the game. You farm levels, you one shot everything. You can out heal and brute force enemies by breaking posture bars.

Also, posture bars, why the fuck is one core mechanics hidden. Like delayed animations, you can't know for sure if you are going to stagger the enemy unless you autistically learn their posture bars, so you can't risk attacks unless you again, bash your head against the wall and waste time. The japanese love wasting your time.

And the whole deal about git gud is just that an excuse. Its an endless loop of masturbation where no one wins
>You used summons? You didn't beat the game
>You used X weapon/attack? You didn't beat the game
>You used items/heals? You didn't beat the game
Unless you beat the game level 1 no upgrades, no items, no summons, blindfolded, you can't say anything about difficulty, so shut your fucking thing.

Let me reveal something for you, difficulty isn't a personality. A game isn't good because it's difficult. Beating difficult games like all of those greasy autist speedruners isn't a personality. Its just coping because you can't deal with real life so you cope and retreat to these virtual world and judge everything about if you can beat a stupid game because people aren't willing to spend 10000 hours into a game and why would they? They have more things on their lives.

TLDR: souls games are bad games and because there are no more games like these they have a monopoly and we have to deal with bad game design. Difficulty isn't a personality.

tldr: skill issue

Notice how you criticize their sacred game and they come out like cockroaches. The game can never, ever ever, be wrong. Doesn't matter that you have hours and hours of videos showing fromsoft's horrible programming skills.

They have made souls their whole personality so no one should attack them.

Difficulty ≠better game.

>>717745284
The thing is that because 80% of humanity is a hive mind and fromsoft revealed that they are drones, many games nowadays don't care about design. Its all about being difficult, doesn't matter that it has a shitty camera after 20 years. These companies earn million and millions of dollars and they can't even manage something a programming student could achieve in an afternoon, because they have no standards.

And the rest of us have to suffer with shitty designed games, because they could eat a literal turd if it had a logo on it.

Git gud is the perfect defense. Make a shit game, then say it's always the consumers fault. Why bother putting the effort, you have an army of drones deffending everything you do.

In ds3 the dragons lair had enemies that could throw their axes throw multi walls across the whole map.

base game is 7/10 and dlc is 2/10

>The rant criticizes Elden Ring and FromSoftware games in general as poorly designed, arguing that much of their perceived difficulty comes from bad programming and outdated mechanics rather than genuine challenge. It targets the game’s camera as clunky and obstructive, lock-on as inconsistent and illogical, hitboxes as inaccurate, and collision detection as unfair—allowing enemies to ignore walls while punishing players. The writer also condemns platforming, fall damage, and AoE-heavy enemies that keep constant pressure, making the game feel chaotic rather than skill-based. Input design is called flawed, with dodging tied to the same button as sprinting (causing delay), inconsistent input buffering, and hidden mechanics like posture bars that force repetitive trial-and-error learning. They claim the game is easily cheesed with summons, ranged attacks, or farming, undermining its supposed difficulty, and accuse the fanbase of defending flaws out of personal investment and identity. The overall argument is that Elden Ring’s challenge is artificial, its flaws would be condemned in other studios’ games, and difficulty alone is not a measure of quality.
based on this you're actually just bad
this game is piss-easy, especially compared to older souls titles
it is trivial to overlevel and end up nuking every boss you fight simply by doing dungeons and playing the game

didn't read anything in this thread. have a cat.

nope, just elden ring
not gonna bother reading the rest

>Elden Ring won several Game of the Year awards and has been cited as one of the greatest games of all time, with praise directed towards its open world, gameplay systems, and setting. It sold over 30 million copies, also making it one of the best-selling games of all time.
Sorry faggot but you're wrong, also you are ugly and will never touch a woman. Sorry buddy it's just the facts, wikipedia says so.

What a sad pathetic lonely bunch of shit-heads. You have my pity.

A game with a shitty camera, hitboxes and inputs doesn't deserve having more than an F.
It's literally broken. The problem is that we are so starved of good games and the standard is so low that this game passes as """good""" game, but it would be shitty had the industry not been in a completely deplorable state.

OP here, my dick is very small

Its hilarious how you prove me right yet again. I say you filter everything about difficulty like in here >>717744417 and like midwits you prove me right.

You have no self reflection.
