Why does this game attract so many underage casuals and they call it "hardcore"?
This game combat is so casual that it makes Assassin's Creed feel hard.

Let my cousin play it the other day. I was shocked at how terrible he was. Motherfucker just kept on dying it was painful just to see.
>>320740404
How many times did you die and/or quit from frustration?

None, OP clearly finished the game without dying once. But don't you try to do that, that's something that only the elite order of hardcores can do
How does it feel to be this based OP?
>>320741107
I breeze through like half of it before playing other games because it's getting boring.
The Souls games are literally the hardest action games of all time.
And this is coming from someone who has beaten the Ninja Gaiden games on MNM and DMC on DMD.

Boy OP I'm sure you're the most popular kid in high school right now! I mean, you can go through an epic hard game like BB without any difficulty! You truly must be a Hardcore Gamer!
>tfw this game wouldnt be memed on so hard if it weren't for butthurt r/pcmasterrace fags
You know the funny thing about this post is that there are plenty of valid complaints with BloodBorne, and OP manages to dodge them all
>>320741396
>people think Bloodbone is hard
>it's their first souls game
>>320742026
Yes it would. The pushback against the Souls fanbase as a whole has been present since Dark Souls started gaining momentum. It happens to literally every game that gets popular on here. Hell, do you remember all the shitposters who popped up pre-DmC to shit on the old games in response to all the people talking about them?
>>320741848
>D-DON'T CALL M-M-ME OUT ON MY B-BULLSHIT C-CASUAL!!!!!
>souls games are sooo hard
>souls games are sooo easy
both of these are false
Friendly reminder that souls games are not hard.
Autistic fanboys give the game artificial difficulty by underleveling themselves.
If you actually spend souls / blood to level up as you play the game, you are untouchable.
>>320742002
I'm a pretty shitty player myself. But even I find Bloodborne to be hand holding and lack of any challenging.
I don't get why the people praising it as some "LE EPIC HARDCORE GAMMU"
>>320742243
They are incredibly difficult for exactly one play through, where your skills are now honed for finding all the secrets. This is how I felt about DeS and DaS. This is how any good video game should be.
>>320742243
This
Souls games just have a steep learning curve, after which the game becomes easy enough that you will only get killed by bullshit or by being absolutely careless.
>all these butthurt fromdornes get mad because OP pointed out all these valid arguments
>>320742517
Finally someone speaks sense.
NG+ can also be hard though.

All memes aside Ludwig/ Orphan of Kos/ Loran Darkbeast/ Headless Bloodletting beast/ Defiled Watchdog/ Defiled Almond- are the hardest bosses in the entire souls franchise, especially if you dont use ludwigs memesword or the whirligig saw

I'll agree with them being arguments, sure.
>>320742392
>I don't get why people are saying (insert things never said here)
DS1 and 2 were the "so hard guys OMFG this game will rekt you!"
The only bosses in DaS that remain hard after several playthroughs are the ones in the Artorias DLC area

Explain exactly what were the "memes" in my post >>320742731
otherwise go kill yourself anime kid
Theres no point to "refute" OP about anything though, because his "points" are opinionated garbage and outright lies because I can assure you that every enemy in the game doesn't die in 3-4 hits
>>320742731
I guess I can agree with you.
Defiled Amygdala raped me like 20 times before i got her.
Defiled maggot face beast was some bullshit.
It was a little disappointing after all that, and you finally get to Queen Yarnham and you can just chase her down and r1 spam her
>there are people on this board who unironically think NG or DMC are harder than the Souls games.
>>320742909
Yeah Manus is a cheesy motherfucker, just spamming the same gorilla swings over and over again without even letting you get up.
I bought PS4 for Bloodborne and was fucking disappointed by it.
How can a game all about combat but with combat this bad?

hi OP
>enemies are all generic zombies
there's a lot of those but the variety increases as you get further, sounds like you aren't that far yet?
>all enemies dies in 3 or 4 hits
what I said above
>enemies don't dodge or block your attacks
hunters do but normal enemies pretty much just take it raw yeah
>blood vial to restore your hp instantly
they are quite strong
>you can make multiple mistakes and take a few hits and still be alive
depends entirely on the enemy, there are a lot of enemies that take large chunks of your health with one swing, and on ng+ just one shot you
loss your hp? just keep hitting the enemy back like nothing happened
if you have an opening to do so, which you often do to be fair
>dumb AI that would roll off a cliff by itself
absolutely true
>you can just run past most enemies effortlessly
a staple in souls at this point, true
>all enemies move like your 80 year old grandpa
again, not all of them. it really sounds like you've only fought the villagers?
>the only hard part in the game is the clunky movement and horrible camera
the camera is fucking awful but how is the movement clunky?
>>320743254
He's a little harder in phase 2, just because he has 3 different magic spells with the same casting animation, and you get about 1 second to respond properly.
How many people were incredibly disappointed that you couldn't cut off his big arm? I tried for like an hour to get him by hitting only his hand, and nothing happened.
Good game, just dumbed down from Dark Souls a little too much.
No build diversity, much lower stamina consumption, more iframes, equipment does jack to your stats, some stats and equip slots are gone, PVP is disappointing, etc. etc.
>inb4 some butthurt fanboy says I didn't play it instead of actually addressing these legitimate complaints about the game
>>320743462
>coming from someone who has owned all souls games owns all DMC games and has owned all NG games sans 3
I don't care what games you own you fucking casual babby. I have beaten the Ninja Gaiden games on MNM and DMC on DMD. They're child's play compared to the Souls games
>>320743530
That actually looks pretty cool, from someone who hasn't played the game.
You're not proving anything by showing us bugs though
Why does this game attract so many underage autistic eltists who constantly brag about other people finding stuff hard they don't?
Why are Bloodboners always so angry and defensive?
>>320743617
Playing too much Monster Hunter led me to a lot of disappointment when I couldn't chop off monsters tails, horns or wings while playing Dark Souls.
I beat all souls games, but I never killed Alma in NG sigma black
>>320740404
(You)
Yeah because sooo many people praise BB to the point where people like you need to make countless shitty threads talking shit after playing the game for fucking 12 minutes like you know every legit flaw about the game. The fuck outta here.
>>320742904
I'll take your bait, animeposter:
>Enemies are all generic zombies
There are no zombies in the game. The Yharnamites in the first area are insane and hostile, but certainly not undead.
>all enemies dies in 3 or 4 hits
Not true unless high-tier chalice gems were obtained early in the game. Even then, that's a very difficult thing to accomplish.
>enemies don't dodge or block your attacks
The mummified knights in chalice dungeons have shields with which to block attacks, and they often fall back when you strike at them or use long-range attacks. He is the only example of "actively" blocking attacks. There are many enemies that dodge, however, such as dogs, chalice madmen, hostile hunters, bosses such as Amelia and the Bloodstarved Beast. Even if they don't either, most enemies have poise or their own longe-range/aggressive attacks that will harm you if you attempt to strike them without thinking first.
>blood vial to restore your hp instantly
It's fast, but it's not instant. Besides, you can be parried while healing and can suffer from counter hits when struck during the animation. Bosses will especially take advantage of you falling back to heal.
>you can make multiple mistakes and take a few hits and still be alive
This is bad how? Besides, many enemies/bosses have some really powerful attacks/combos that will fuck you up if you don't evade them.
>loss your hp? just keep hitting the enemy back like nothing happened
Not all weapons have enough rally strength to restore it all. Even then, you can't R1 spam most enemies immediately after being struck because they will respond with their own attacks that might interrupt yours.
>dumb AI that would roll off a cliff by itself
Examples? Only thing I can think of is being able to bait a chalice demon dog's attack so that it falls into an area where it can't reach you.
(1/2)
>>320743530
>That ass at 0:14.
Have you noticed that most "backstabs" in souls games are often anal stabs like a sword all through the ass or our right fisting in BB.
Do you think Miyazaki has a anal fisting fetish?
>>320743875
>That actually looks pretty cool, from someone who hasn't played the game.
Sure you haven't, BBfag. I bet you played it loads. Post timestamp of you not having the game or gtfo.

>>320742243
I have to agree with this. In factvit prevents me from talking about it or introducing new people to it. Its either autitst who say "uhhh yea games super easy hurr" or people who refuse to play because they dont want to git gud
>>320744024
There are plenty of problems with the game but the OP is purely shitposting. You'd have to be a retard not to see it.

Here you go, friendo.I don't have a PS4
>>320745381
Typo what someone who has played the game would write so that we can see what you're talking about.
What are you even implying? That everyone who has played the game knows it's amazing?
What a fucking biased fanboy approach.
>>320742542
Outside of 1-3 bosses in each souls game most bosses can be cleared in 1-2 goes if you already done 1 playthrough(unless of course your running really min/max builds, where it can be harder) its still harder than your typical AAA game(such as Cawadoody, Battlefield, Dragon Age, Mass effect) because it punishes sloppiness. So where is your definition of a hard game, a normal game and an easy game? If we look at every release in the last 5 years souls games are in the top 25% for difficulty
>>320743284
I like how you think that owning somehting makes your negative opinion about something somehow more important than the one of people who liked the game.
Terrible bait. Please stop posting and off yourself.
>>320742105
This.
Bloodborne is easy.
>>320745716
>he actually did it the absolute madman.
So you like PS3? Why no DeS then?
Souls games were never hard.
Demon Souls and Dark Souls were hard, but just because the mechanics were so damn obscure, that it really took a time while the community start learning how the games work.
That magic was gone with DS2 and Bloodborne...but the idea that the game is hard and hardcore stays so the kids can feel better.
Anyone else not giving a fuck about Bloodborne and just posting in those threads for the ebin shitposts?
I genuinely don't ever intend to play the game, but I still open those threads and post at least once each time.
>>320745716
>>320745901
Wait, I take it back. That's an obvious Blue Dual Shock 4 controller up there. You almost had me, BBfag.
>>320746134
I wish it was.
I have DeS on digital btw
>>320744478
>you can just run past most enemies effortlessly
Yeah, and then get buttfucked when they gang up on you while you try to loot something. Also, you don't even get any echoes or loot out of that, and the consumable coldbloods are simply not enough to sustain you.
>all enemies move like your 80 year old grandpa
Yeah, man, those madmen, dogs, and hundreds of other swift enemies move so slowly.
>the only hard part in the game is the clunky movement and horrible camera
Camera could be better, and it's especially bad when fighting Paarl/Loran Darkbeast, but it's not that bad.
>>320743724
"Build diversity" is a complaint that I often see, but people are usually referring to weapons. I think the weapon variety itself is fine, but you're right in that you're confined to one playstyle-- fast and aggressive. Still, I don't see why one would want to move slower in a game like this. Not only is it not themed after knights, but the enemies are so fast compared to the Souls games that you can't really afford to move any slower.
>more iframes
Your dash has less, actually, but it goes far enough to get you out of enemy attacks. Not really sure how this makes the game "dumbed down" though.
>equipment does jack to your stats
Except it kinda does. The changes to ailment resistances are very noticeable, and you can avoid one-shots from certain bosses by combining resistance/hp runes with certain clothing. Sure, they won't make a big difference as far as resisting damage goes, but it's something.
>some stats and equip slots are gone
Such as? ADP is both dumb and unnecessary. A stat for equip load wouldn't be that good either. As for equip slots, BB has what it needs, really.
>PVP is disappointing
I do it a lot and I think it's far from disappointing. The "mechanics" or whatever you want to call it definitely need some more work, though. I'm tired of gankspanking.
>>320745873
Bloodborne is hard for the first 10-15 mins and at end game bosses mainly in hunters DLC.
As a person who beat all of them the overall difficulty for souls series is as follows
DSII>DSI>Bloodborne>DeS
>>320740404
How is that petition going, friend?
>>320746723
I agree that DS2 is harder, but the way they make it harder it feels cheap.
Specially the enemies on the DLC. Super pose and really punch hard. Poison, acid and bullshit.
>Souls games hard.
Use magic for an easy time. Jeez that was hard.
>>320746447
FOREVER ALWAYS, BBfag.
Only way you can like Bloodborne is if you ever played it. I bet your friend let you play it.
Otherwise that just means you have golden face taste.
>HEY LOOK AT ME I PLAYED BLOODBORNE AND IT WASN'T EVEN HARD
Sorry kiddo, you're not special
>>320740404
From game informer
>inbf "game informer is paid for reviews, mug shit teir magenzine and all that nonsense"
Clearly the general consensus is that it's a challenging game. However you wanna word it whether it's just "unforgiving" or whatever clearly the majority (including the people who write for game informer) think it's challenging. Congrats to you for being so gifted at vidya that you feel the need to shit post on /v/ about it. Now please take your cancer to another board
Another shitposting thread made by a salty PCuck who watched a few gameplay videos of this game on youtube.
>>320746739
>>320740404
>so many underage casuals and they call it "hardcore"?
It really doesn't. Of all the times (what is it, 10 per day?) a falseflagger like you opens up a bloodborne thread calling it hardcore you nevereversee someone agreeing with you.
Come on son, do you honestly expect any of us to believe a PS-only Souls game has the shit community? Just look at you, a PC guy who hasn't played a good Souls game since 2012 and knows deep down that DaS3 is yet another carsh grab, probably not as bad as DaS2, but won't reach BB.
Well I'm very sorry for that but it's not BB's fault that half the franchise (After DaS3's release) is shitty/mediocre and it's not BB's fault that it won't ever be on PC.
You could always work of weekends for a monts, 8 days of work. And get enough for a PS4. It's not hard man, you can do it I trust you, familia.
>>320746723
DaSII is only harder because ennemies have magnets attached to their weapons.
I've also beaten them all, and found BB to be the most challenging, the beginning is of course the most difficult part, but some bosses fucked me hard. And after that we have the Chalice dungeons.
