Caesar Saladin posted:the funniest thing about sekiro not having an easy mode is all of these game journos on twitter being unable to finish it, and then trying to ramble about disabled accessibility as an excuse to add an easy mode. I think its funny that they think disabled people are bad at games just because game journos are. There's a dude who kicks rear end at street fighter with his tongue and has little flappy hands and that game is hard to play at all. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hSJM9qF0txw u dont even need hands to play star craft

He got in a little bit of trouble afterwards, but it's a really good snippet of his personality in the normally very serious pro scene. In my defense of watching others play video games, I actually DID play bw/sc2 seriously. Does that make more more or less of a loser?

Except there is literally like .01% of games in 2019 that actually ask you to git gud, the rest give you color coded presents that do the work for you and pat you on the back for picking up garbage off the ground like you accomplished something. Which is also the most amazingly millenial/Gen Z thing.

Participation trophies were invented by Boomer and Gen X parents. Games can ask you to get good while also providing opportunities to get assistance. Golf for instance has a handicap system so two unevenly skilled players can compete against one another and in bowling you provide bumpers to people beginning to play so they have help as they practice getting good. In my opinion there should only be one "difficulty mode" and then a variety of assistance or hindrances you select. Developers get to focus on finding the exact perfect balance and vision while people who want adjustments still have the option without being locked into set packages or having to play different content.

Dirt Rally does this really well. It's a hard as balls rally racing sim but has options for steering assist, braking assist, etc to the point where it feels super arcadey with everything on. As you get better you can turn assists off one by one.

This is why the Souls game basically have the best difficulty adjustments in any game. It's also why Sekiro is making people lose their loving minds because that invisible slider is barely there and they can't easily cheese poo poo and tell themselves they beat it.

Barudak posted:Participation trophies were invented by Boomer and Gen X parents. I fukken hate bumper bowling because when I was a kid, my dad would sometimes take my best friend and to the bowling alley. I would always bowl normally but my friend would always abuse the poo poo out of the bumpers to the point that the ball would bounce off the bumpers like six times before it reached the pins and get just a stupid amount of strikes. Like this 9-year-old kid is putting up a 190 or some crazy poo poo like that. This motherfucker tripled my score and he didn't even like bowling. Anyway, long story short, that's why I had an eating disorder in middle school.

I like how games need to be insultingly easy or else you cant play them and also have a life too. Check this: i work a ton in a gruelling job and also juggle a social life and i play hard games on purpose!

"Let me tell you something you already know. Dark Souls ain't all sunshine and rainbows. It's a very mean and nasty game, and I don't care how tough you are, it will beat you to your knees and keep you there permanently if you let it. You, me, or nobody is gonna hit as hard as Smough. But it ain't about how hard you hit. It's about how hard you can get hit and keep moving forward; how much you can take and keep moving forward. That's how winning is done! Now if you know what you're worth, then go out and get what you're worth, but you gotta be willing to take the hits, and not pointing fingers saying you ain't where you wanna be because of Nito, or Sif, or anybody. Cowards do that and that ain't you. You're gudder than that!" - rockey Balboa

I wish the metroidvania craze just ended already. Every game that looks interesting bam, it's actually a metroidvania. There's even a game where the fact it's a metroidvania is a mid-game twist. Give me back my linear games with no backtracking.

I just started playing Assassins Creed Origins, and it shocked me that it had a quit to desktop option. I never thought an Assassins Creed game would ever give me the freedom of quitting a game now and not 10 minutes from now.
