What EXACTLY is "rollslop" and what SPECIFICALLY is wrong with it?

>>718468379 (OP)
desu all the games suck except ds1 if i think critically about it and without bias. most games are bad, but ds1 is a good experience. Bloodborne cannot be good by virtue of it being essentially unplayable at it's locked framerate. DeS sucks because it is too "gamey" with levels and such.

and that's the truth.

Rollslop is anything that follows the dark souls formula and it is bad because it's just the same shit every time.

It's bad because it isn't fun. It isn't fun because it is boring. It is boring because it is slow and requires minimal thought or execution and only tedium.

"rollslop" is the misguided term people use to refer to video games whose combat revolves around a button that provides iframes

>what is wrong with it
in short, that kind of combat gets reduced to pressing the button at the right time, what would be active time (positioning, finding how enemies range, finding a plan of attack, typical action game approaches) is now null and replaced by waiting for the moment to iframe through the attack and only react as a counter since being stuck in other animations and not having your roll available always puts you at a disadvantage

A buzzword used by retards.
>what SPECIFICALLY is wrong with it?
It shits up discussions.
