I am glad someone vigilantly warns people about fake animes. Only real animes provide the right amount of moe and kawaii.

Try something like a Kirby game or the recent Rayman games. There are still games out there that are just games instead of attempts at subverting the entire medium.

Nah, I'm glad the dark souls games exist. It seems like a really respectful sub genre, nothing is given and it's hard and all that. I'm just not sure it's fun for me, I'll try this shortcut hunting stuff and see if it clicks but I'm thinking of taking the game back at this point.

I did really like the witcher 3. I also like other games that have no story like KSP and Anno so I don't know what's up there.

You shouldn't need one with a Wii U although I forget the exact details. Go ask the Wii U thread.

Dark Souls is a game that I picked up on rentals and dropped like three times before I finally bought a copy and it really clicked with me. You can come back to it later.

watch a lp of someone play up through the first boss. when i started with the game i had no idea what the gently caress it was about and watching someone who knew how to play was really helpful.

To be fair, it's pretty much impossible to sell PC games in Japan unless they have some kind of anime titty.

You and I are in the same boat, except I was duped into buying Dark Souls on steam and spent literally 2 hours configuring the awful Games For Windows Live bullshit and then an hour playing around until I realized it was unplayable without a controller. Then I bought a controller and played for 30 minutes and kept getting killed by skeletons so I ragequit and never started back up. I tried getting back into it at one point but the second I saw the GFWL screen when reinstalling I had flashbacks and gave up.

The worst part of Dark Souls is definitely the forced skeleton battle at the beginning of the game, what the christ were they thinking!?

On the bright side, GFWL is long dead at this point.

Look I heard Dark Souls was hard so I thought getting two-hit by these monsters I can barely damage was fully intentional, okay?
