No, complaints that are weak, unsubstantiated, or baseless. Most of which serve to undermine his already flimsy arguments

>Like what
Complaining about the beam attack from the spider in Dark Souls II; it reeks of him getting killed by it and going "woooowwww that's going in my critique". What exactly is his complaint with it? The nature of the attack? He admits that it's an incredibly simple attack to dodge, so that can't be it. Is it the animation?

>No one reasonably expects a giant spider to shoot a large, incredibly damaging laser
What does someone "reasonably expect" a giant spider to do? If it was a beam of poison, would that be fine? What about a string of webs?

He then immediately references Demon Souls which did the EXACT SAME THING, but alleges that it's fine because the level design prepares you to have a giant fireball spat at you by a spider. The problem here is that, for one, the game doesn't actually prepare you for this attack at all. Regardless, his point here isn't clear; should a Souls game prepare you for EVERY attack a boss does? Is nothing supposed to surprise, frighten, or otherwise intimidate the player?

It's a weak "complaint" that doesn't even fulfill the bare minimum for being a legitimate criticism. His reviews are FULL of obnoxious, limp points that don't carry any weight.

Wasn't his first complaint about Dark Souls 2 about how the game forces you to play as a male for the first 5 seconds, even though it's quite obvious that they were lazily attempting to make the character's gender and appearance unknown?
He could of criticized them for laziness and unnecessary filler, but instead whined about muh soggy knees.

I'm quite confused here. At first you're wondering why he complains about the laser, then you point out why, and you're doing mental gymnastics to try to avoid his actual complaint.

Wish he would do the metroid series.
>>
>>320697747
Not him, but the Armored Spider attack does give you preparation for the attack by giving you a solid 10 seconds to see the projectile at the end of the tunnel and get out of the way. On top of that, it's a fire attack from a metal enemy in a stage filled with firey and metal enemies.

Freja's attack does not give you any time to prepare because the animation for it is too ambiguous and the projectile is instant, giving you no time to see it coming if you don't know what is happening.

But how does it prevent you from roleplaying as a woman?
He makes the assumption that the female figures in the intro cutscene are supposed to be your wife and child, while the reality is, there's no fucking explanation as to who they are, meaning they could be literally anyone you want them to be.
It's fine to think the mini tutorial before the hut was lazy/unnecessary, but saying it hurts your role-playing experience is silly.

How is this at all relevant?

>the animation for it is too ambiguous
It is one of the longest animations for any attack in the game. Any player who has two brain cells to rub together would know to get away from the head and body, because that is the most likely place for an attack to come from. From any sort of vantage point you can easily analyze the nature of the attack and how to avoid it; it's a completely ridiculous complaint.

>At first you're wondering why he complains about the laser, then you point out why, and you're doing mental gymnastics to try to avoid his actual complaint
I posed a question to illustrate the nebulous nature of the complaint, then I hazarded my best guess for what his actual intent was. I didn't avoid anything. Also, learn how to read the explicit meaning in sentences and come up with a rebuttal instead of pretending like the opposing argument doesn't exist.

>I mean why even bring up the word "full," or post at all if we're not going to talk about them
Does posting/talking about translate to you evading every problem I point out?

Nothing about him pisses me off. I actually agree with a lot of his criticisms of Dark Souls II, but the review itself is poor and bogged down by too much nitpicking and too many baseless complaints.

All they had to do was either lock your menu or prevent removing your clothes until you get to chargen. Solving it would be pretty fucking easy.

In the faintest way possible, it serves as foreshadow. Of all the spiders in Brightstone Cove Tseldora, not ONE shoots out a tiny magic beam or something which would be ALL the foreshadowing needed to justify Freja's blast.

>then I hazarded my best guess for what his actual intent was

Which he explicitly states. Nobody expects spiders to shoot laser beams.

>Does posting/talking about translate to you evading every problem I point out?

The other guy already talked about fiery and metal enemies I didn't see a point.

>It is one of the longest animations for any attack in the game

Agreed, I've never actually been hit by the laser beam.

>it's a completely ridiculous complaint.

Ehh it is and it isn't. In his Dark Souls commentary he constantly references Demon's Souls as having the most internally consistent world. Certain items found in certain areas, the light on the character is cast by an item, etc. And as the Souls games go on they get less and less, culminating in the laser beam from DSII.

Put it this way: The laser beam made his autism flare at how not consistent it was compared to DeS.

>>320698990

How is it the best Souls game when it completely undoes any tension regarding bonfire placement, estus flasks; lacks a seamless world, and retreads the lore of the original game? I will say I thoroughly enjoyed the variety of more weapons and the ability to dual wield however.
>>
>>320698843
>How is this at all relevant?
If you went through 2-1, went through the fog wall and came up to a long ass tunnel with the boss at the other end and didn't expect to get shot at by fire, you're a fucking idiot

>It is one of the longest animations for any attack in the game. Any player who has two brain cells to rub together would know to get away from the head and body, because that is the most likely place for an attack to come from
>Turn around and run to the other side of the stage

> From any sort of vantage point you can easily analyze the nature of the attack and how to avoid it; it's a completely ridiculous complaint.
Uhh, no. It's a very common complaint people have with the boss because a giant spider rearing back very far does not logically translate into sweeping the stage with a great big beam. It's only slow and well telegraphed in retrospect because you know what it actually means - but first time fighting her it could look like a great big body slam, or a headbutt, or anything. It's stupid to be expecting a laser because it's a great big spider, not some old guy with a beard and staff or a library master.
>>
>>320698263
>Freja's attack does not give you any time to prepare
is this a fucking joke?
>giant spider reels up off the ground and raises her head in a three second long animation
>laser slowly sweeps from one side of the room to the other with an incredibly small hitbox

how is that "no time to prepare" you fucking idiot? everyone on /v/ just parrots what this dipshit says without actually thinking. anyone who died to that attack more than once is a fucking moron. it's one of the most telegraphed and easy to avoid attacks in souls history

>>320699357

So your argument is that you should be able to predict the exact nature of every single attack beforehand by looking at the animation. Sounds like a fun game

I think he sometimes makes some interesting points, though in hindsight whenever I think back on it, a lot of his criticisms in game design are actually really obvious, I just don't think about them because I care more about just playing the game.

That being said, how many people posted in watching that 6 hour Dark Souls video is probably one of the saddest things I've seen on /v/ in a long time. If I want to hear opinions about Dark Souls, I can talk to my friends about it. I don't need to listen to a clown speak about it for 6 hours. Even Plague knew to keep the average video only an hour long, and he acknowledged most people never actually WATCHED his videos as they did listen to them.

>>320699380
>giant spider reels up off the ground and raises her head in a three second long animation
What makes you think that it's a fucking screen-wide laser? Why should you be preparing for a laser?

If you come in expecting some big slam attack, you move away and not around. If you move far away, the laser hits you.

>>320699548
>So your argument is that you should be able to predict the exact nature of every single attack beforehand by looking at the animation. Sounds like a fun game
Knowing the general gist of what something is about to do isn't the same as 'predicting the exact nature of every single attack'. If you see a boss raise a backhand, it's fair to expect a backhanded attack. If you see him raise a backhand only for him to instead shoot fucking lasers out of his mouth, that's stupid

>Well you can only say that in retrospect because you know what it actually means ;)
No, because in this case it's common sense. Nothing about Freja suddenly being able to shit lasers is predictable or makes any sense.

Fucking soulsfags, man
>>
>>320699353
>Which he explicitly states. Nobody expects spiders to shoot laser beams.
He also explicitly complains about it catching the player off guard, which would lead you to believe that he's complaining about the nature of the attack (which is perfectly fair and not the only example of this type of thing in ANY of the souls game) as well as the animation.

>culminating in the laser beam from DSII. The laser beam made his autism flare at how not consistent it was compared to DeS
It's hardly a culmination. Regardless, this is entirely my point. Why is so much time spent on something that barely qualifies as a complaint? If there's any validity to what he's saying, it's an INCREDIBLY minor issue that could have been entirely rectified by changing the "laser" to a jet of poison. That doesn't bear mentioning in a review at all
>>
>>320699860

As for the video, I eventually watched all of it in pieces, and I thought it was mostly a waste a time.

>>320699929
>What makes you think that it's a fucking screen-wide laser? Why should you be preparing for a laser?
Nothing you fucking idiot, you should be preparing for an attack of somesort and get to a safe spot so you can see what happens. This is the essence of every boss in every fucking souls game and most ARPGs in general.

>If you move far away, the laser hits you
Only if you stay IN FRONT OF THE BOSS like a retard.

>No, because in this case it's common sense. Nothing about Freja suddenly being able to shit lasers
Spiders being able to breathe fire because they live in a mine makes sense? And a giant spider that possesses the soul of the CREATOR OF SOUL MAGIC being able to shoot a soul laser doesn't?

>If you see a boss raise a backhand, it's fair to expect a backhanded attack. If you see him raise a backhand only for him to instead shoot fucking lasers out of his mouth, that's stupid
You mean like an armored boss raising a backhand only to spin around and shoot black goop out of his arm? Or a boss jumping up in the air and crashing down, only to have lightning lasers shoot out of his ass? Or a gargoyle jumping up into the air, only to have a breath of fire shoot out of its mouth?

Most video games often have a powerful attack after a long wind-up.

Furthermore, it doesn't matter what the material is as long as there's some sort of logic behind it. Bitching about spiders with lasers is extremely petty.

I don't think it's anything new. I mean I wonder how many single mothers watched cooking shows in the 90s and had this surrogate friend concept, feel me? Most definitely the internet exacerbated the issue though.

>Mainly because after reading the interviews with Miyazaki, it's easy to see that the fans cared about the lore and world far more than the creators did

I'm not so sure considering just how much effort Miyazaki put into Demon's Souls and Dark Souls. But we'll agree to disagree here.

>and reference Berserk constantly

I think Artorias, the Red Eye Orb, and the Darksign are the only references in DaS.

>and I thought it was mostly a waste a time

I also agree. But a lot of people wanted it so he made it. Customer's always right and all that. Some things were interesting like likening the Humanity sprite with vaginas, but I feel like anyone who really wants to know about a thing will seek out information on their own. It's why I also feel Plague's commentary was weird, I don't even think I've finished it yet.

uh, why? what is the acceptable animation for "about to shoot a laser out of my mouth"? frejya literally stands upright and reels her head back. if you're standing near her head when she does this, you deserve to die.

Here's a video of the actual animation:
>https://youtu.be/6j0UGZcd_5A?t=1m33s

Go fuck yourselves you fucking autists. This is one of the most easily readable and telegraphed attacks in the entire game, and anyone who dies to it 100% absolutely deserves it. She is clearly attacking with her fucking head and the laser is so goddamn slow that the only way to die is if you're standing right in front of her face. Not to mention, on the animation front, she is the reincarnation of Seath who created sorceries and was probably the most powerful magic user in the Souls universe

No, he complains about it's fairness:

>Nobody reasonably expects a giant spider to shoot an enormous and incredibly damaging laser beam. It's simple to dodge once you know about it, but it can easily catch you offguard the first time because it's so nonsensical.

If he wasn't complaining about the nature of the attack, he wouldn't have brought up the large hitbox (which is actually quite small) or the large damage. And as other posters have said, it actually does make sense within the universe. Given his comparison to the Armor Spider, he clearly thinks the attack isn't fair because it isn't appropriately telegraphed. Which is nonsense.

To piss off the weebos with... what? Shoddy illustrations? Lax production ethics? Expensive porches? Terrible, shapeless blob miniatures? A complete inability to reform or reinvent itself? The yeastiest, groggiest fandom of all mecha? The worst-handled gaming franchise on this side of Sonic the Hedgehog? Throngs of furry players?

After he was done discussing the windmill he says, "but the point is none of it makes any sense." Literally right after that sentence, he transitions to say. "No body reasonably expects a giant spider to shoot an enormous and incredibly damaging laser beam."

He was complaining that Freja's attack made no sense.

Didn't say it was shit bro. Weed Man just complains that he didn't like the very minor backtracking and non-linear hub design of LISA because it kept him from getting to another game he actually wanted to play (Undertale) that much longer, which is a pretty shit reason to shit on a game.

Yeah but can you read for example, this

ある程度ストーリークエストを進めないと起きないイベントはあるものの、ゲーム序盤から自由にミラ全土を歩きまわることができるのです。
前作『ゼノブレイド』はストーリーの目的地が指定されて「そこまではどう進もうが自由ですよ」というスタイルでしたが、今作は「ストーリークエストをたまにやってくれれば、あとは好きにやっていいよ」といわんばかりの自由度の高さになっています。


It's taken from the recent review of Xenoblade Chronicles X

>>320704407
>Cooler

You are objectively wrong

Why shouldn't the hero's machine be among the most powerful?

Before you ask why pic related has a big ragged cloak on one side, it's because it lost an arm at the end of the season and the repairs were a rush job.

>>
>>320704580

Because mechs that are all beaten up and damaged give a sense that the machine, while powerful, is not invincible. Even in-universe it's acknowledged that the repair job is incredibly shoddy, with the end of GN Sword being broken off, the face having exposed parts, and various pieces of armor plating missing. The cloak is purely to hide that Exia has been far more fucked up than you think.
