>>333104271
Like most outdated jap games, Dark souls doesn't reward anything unless you play exactly how they want you to. You have to play the entire game on your tip toes, tediously and cautiously walking through the levels because at any time something from fucking nowhere will come out and kill you and then you have to retry. Normally, a well made game wouldn't rely on cheap tricks like this. But nowadays people are so starved for difficult games they will actually not only settle for shit like this but praise it even. It's crazy.
>didn’t try to roll away when initially hit
>kept trying to attack
That’s why you got punished you stupid fuck. Get good.

Check it, there's a few moments where he raises his sword to attack. that's where he should have retreated.
>>333104934

>>333104934
hes not stunlocked though, you can clearly see him starting his weapon swings only to be interrupted, a simple dodge would give him the iframes to avoid any further interruption/stunning.
>>333104934
He could have rolled away from the first one at literally any time.

>a tale of two adventurers the webm
>>333104694
Except there's no indication that there's an enemy hiding around a corner with 2 other enemies waiting to drop down.
I started playing Souls games the other day.
Part of the appeal to me is that they play like a military sim, you are presented with a stage with enemies at certain positions and a few ways of looking before taking action. So what I like to do is plan a way of dealing with the situation, thinking about possible ambushes, and then carrying that plan out without making mistakes.
It's a very strategical and tactical combat, I love it. Unless I'm playing this game wrong, I don't see how this could be seen as a flaw.
If I wanted to rush through everything I would just play Diablo.
>>333105378

he is spamming R1 instead of circle
that is the mistake
you can tell because he raises his sword many times trying to counter attack

Not only did you run into a corner like nothing, but you tried to hit back twice instead of rolling out of the attack.
3 errors in a row is enough to get death as a punishment
>>333104934
Every single time you see him trying to attack he could have rolled out and repositioned.

>>333104271
All I see is a noob running into a trap without checking his surroundings. The camera could have been turned so you could see the gank squad leader. And you probably could have easily ran in to activate him, then roll out and fight the rest of them normally.

>>333104271

See, anon. This happened to me too in Bloodborne. Instead of panicking and attacking, use the fucking dodge mechanic that the game so heavily pushes. I mean fuck, you are playing the game that has shields, so use it.
>Dark Souls
>hard
Ya'll niggas need some Last Raven.
People run around corners without a care in the world in souls games? Like regardless of whether it's bullshit or not, that's just very fucking dumb.
Dark Souls is the video games equivalent of the jump scare in movies.
>game that forces you to be cautious
>LET'S SPRINT INTO SHIT
You only start sprinting when you're planning to avoid everything to get to a boss anything else if just being stupid
Lets assume that OP is not a faggot and that "trap" is actually unavoidable if you get sandwiched and they DO stunlock you to death.
What the fuck is wrong with that? Not only do these monsters breathe heavily, but you can also see them stuck to the wall by pointing the camera upwards. It's also not the first time they drop down hat boys on you in this level so you can't say you did not expect that.
Hell, let's assume that you can't see shit and you have to step on the trigger and roll back immediately to not get fucked.
Why the fuck did everyone so suddenly (well not suddenly, more like from the PC release of DaS) became such a fucking pussy about trial and error? What's wrong with memorizing shit and trying to do a perfect run till the next bonfire/shortcut?
honestly I think the gameplay is pretty shitty and I don't care about the "muh difficulty the first hard game in history" shit
I play it mainly for the atmosphere and lore and meme messages

>>333104271

Pure memorization is shitty shallow difficulty
actually having to observe your environment is different from that though.
>>333104507
So your idea of difficulty is bullet sponges and damage values right?
>>333104271
You can see he's just mashing attack.
One back roll would have saved his ass.
Plus, knowing Dark Souls, the monster around the corner was probably making a ton of noise.

>>333105764
I like it. it looked cool and is a punishment for not being cautious. and it makes sense for the enemy to communicate ahead and prepare an ambush for the man slaughtering his way through the castle

$10 says if the player stopped and looked up he'd have seen the two little hat fuckers clinging to the wall above him. There nearly ZERO enemies in Souls games that just come from absolutely nowhere and fuck your shit up.
>being this bad
>>333108067
It also frowns heavily on people who play overly defensively. I'm not saying you should do what that webm has being done, but people who play overly cautious in souls games are the ones who bitch and moan the most about how hard it is because 90% of the time they are afraid to attack and so get hit.

>>333107117
A enemy attacking you the moment you walk in front them? Wow such artificial difficulty.
It's not like you could have avoided the whole damn thing if you checked the corner before blinding running down it.
It's not like you could have dodged at one of the 4 times you tried to attack.
It's not like all of this could have been avoided if you thought for a single second instead of going full YOLO from second one.
Oh wait. It is.

Whoever made that webm ran full tilt around a corner with his camera pointed at the floor, and died unceremoniously in a fairly standard ambush. You can play this game stupidly running around without having any clue where you're going if you're good enough.
>>333109021
One. I don't own a Xbone and never will.
Two. it's not out in English on ps4

>>333108831
PS4 and PC are pretty much the same texture wise at 1080p. PS4 has lower res shadows and is 30fps (with next to zero frame drops). Meanwhile Xbone runs 900p, has jaggy shadows, and still manages to dip to the 20-25fps range frequently.

I don't own an Xbone, and I don't want to buy the game on my PS4 and my PC. As much as I want to play it, i'd rather just wait for the 60 FPS experience.
Only reason I got the Bloodborne Machine was for Bloodborne and it didn't have a PC version.
Now it collects dusts, because it turned into the Remaster Machine, and I don't want to play "HD" versions of games i've already played.

>>333110128
Eventually SotFS fixed this, and sent hackers/cheaters to the shadow realm to play only with other hackers.
Hopefully DS3 has the same system in place, or uses SteamWorks(doubt it)
Doesn't mean you won't run into any hackers, but i'd rather have to face one once in awhile instead of playing on console with 20-30 fps.

what everybody that replied to him forgot is that >>333104271 is not a fair trap they are designed with the bloodstain gimmick in mind. What I like about this most is that one person demise is another player's warning. This is was probably played offline where extreme caution is needed.

Witht he ability to be a walking rock, A ball of lazers and fire, a Dick ass thief, A ass dicked Archer? Gutz the struggler?
The only thing it doesn't allow you to be is a stupid fucking idiot with no general awareness and lack of common sense.
Because that is what all the people who preach artificial difficulty lack. Common fucking sense and awareness.
Each of those enemies can be noticed if you actually payed the slightest bit of attention. From the sound they make to the fact you can find them on a different path to the common sense of not running blindly into a hall you didn't bother to look down prior to that Leeroy Jenkins..
FYI. Tanks have to dodge sometimes too.

I like that Halberd.

I mean really. the dude playing is at full health, which tells me he's not being chased. WHY would you run full tilt into a blind corner in fucking Dark Souls, where everything and their retarded grandchild wants to and is able to kill your stupid ass
Git gud is normally a meme, but holy shit
Take your head out of your ass and please get good
>>333113420
I completely forgot about that part of it. That's even worse.
>>333104271
That's nothing compared to pic relatedJust kidding, you can break the bridge
>>333113812
How?
>>333104271
>Rushing in
>Not using camera to check through corners
I would agree if this was the Greatwood who has an unfair grab because invisible grab box is much wider than the drawn model or the some of bosses aoe attacks that has larger hit map than drawn alpha effects but this is just good example of carelessness and stupidity bad example of artificial difficulty.
>>333113807
the guide for vanilla oblivion on master is literally "go conjuration with a paralyze weapon and poison it so you can summon your ally, stunlock them with paralyze and stack weakness because you aren't going to be able to do shit"
>>333113812
thanks mr skeltal
>>333104507
you don't even have to go slow, you just have to be paying some attention to the game.
>>333104271
Who runs all through the level like a chicken with its head cut off, and turn a corner blind, not taking advantage of bring a able to control the camera? It's his own fault.
>>333112896
That doesn't make it less bullshit
>>333113894
My guess. Attack the wooden posts at the back or cut the ropes.
>>333113905
He already knows that enemy is there you can see him doing an attack as he rounds the corner. The enemy's attack just comes out insultingly early from a neutral position with no tell as part of the "trap".
>Kept trying to attack instead of rolling out of the way
Bait harder.

Why have I been seeing so many webms with filenames like that lately?

>17 skellies
spoiler that shit
>>333113310
Game actually slowed down there making it impossible for the enemy to connect
>>333112383
This is gonna sound like shitposting or bait, but I honestly like the Fallout 4 AI, at least most of the time
They use cover, they flank, they shoot at where they think you are, yhey alert each other, they throw grenades when they don't have line of sight or when you hide behind something
The vanilla "difficulty" increases are pure shit, but the beta survival difficulty was surprisingly good, and was what really should have been in since the start
>>333114189
because that's what gfycat does. it just attributes a random name to the files you upload
>>333112254
No, THIS is artificial difficulty.

>11 estus flasks

That's not the encounter's fault, the player decided to be retarded.
>>333105170
and if it's anything like Bloodborne rolling into an enemy will stagger them allowing you to roll even more in order to escape

>Loran Darkbeast
I thought his name was Paarl.
>>333114303
On a enemy you fought long before hand and learned that it is a total bitch when you get up close and personal with it's face with any weapon.

Does anyone have a mega link or good torrent for Darksouls 1 they could provide me with?
All but one torrent of ds1 have disappeared from kat and tpb ,and it doesn't have enough seeders to do anything.

People have 2 definitions of artificial difficulty that don't correspond with each other:
1. Artificial difficulty as in an easy way of increasing difficulty (hp/damage boost, enemies that kill you in 1-2 hits rather than having a difficulty to deal with moveset that kills you in 4-5 hits)
2. Artificial difficulty as in difficulty of an encounter that relies on the first encounter and nothing else (first time you see an enemy ambushing and kick you off a cliff so you die, second time, you kill the enemy before he kicks you really easily and magically, all the difficulty is gone, so you don't die)
>>333114432
Depends on the enemy poise. If it's a grave hag or generic zombie that works. If you try it on manspiders or firedogs you're in for a lot of suffering
>>333104271
If you actually Look at the Webm you'd see that he tried to attack while backed into the corner, which is a bad idea, he should have rolled to the left toward his ambusher and the whole thing would have been fine.
Salty players, gonna be salty.

>>333114915
Trial and error can be seen as a form of artificial difficulty since there's no skill involved in dealing with the difficulty, just minor knowledge that solves everything (exception would probably be puzzles). It's just a ''THINKFASTLOLUDED'' situation.
>>333114724
This.
Anyone?
>>333104934
Just wanted to add that his armor doesn't look like it gives any amount of poise at all. Someone in heavier armor may not have flinched at all during that flurry but still should have retreated regardless
>>333114784
The first is artificial difficulty in the classical sense, the second is just memorization and a japanese game definition of "difficulty".
Japs really like their memorization as difficulty.
>>333114915
Yeah.

I can understand people not liking it because it's just not for them, but that's the worst reason I've ever heard for not playing it.

As much as memorization is an actual skill, I wish they didn't base entire genres around it.

There are very few parts of the games where jumping is absolutely necessary to progress.

You can roll onto the path for that
