Blizzard and Biodrones are the worst about this.

Summing other players trivializes any threat in the game.
If you still can't kill a boss with your sunbros, maybe the game just isn't for you.

Git Gud fggt

That's exactly what you do when you git gud, though.

No shit? Do you think you should randomly win for no reason or win by luck or something?

I like to think there is a difference between figuering out something and try everything until you win
>>
>>334481169

And what would that difference be?

Are you thinking that, for example, in a Zelda game where the enemy's weak spot is glowing bright red in contrast to the rest of their body, that you 'figured out' what to do? Because what actually happened is the developers showed you what you should be doing. You didn't figure out shit.

If you can figure something out on your first try, it shows that the game is well designed and allowed you to learn what needs to be done before you need it. You spoke about Zelda wherein the enemies have big glowing week spots. One subversion is the Volvagia boss fight in OoT, where you have to smash its head with a hammer.

In any game where you have 100,000 possible strategies at your disposal and maybe 3 of them work, is a case of trial and error

Either the game showed you what you need to do or you got lucky. In the first case, you didn't 'figure out' anything.

>One subversion is the Volvagia boss fight in OoT, where you have to smash its head with a hammer.

Trial and error on a very minor scale.

>In any game where you have 100,000 possible strategies at your disposal

It's a good thing there's no games that have this. But even if it's 3 possible strategies where only 1 works and there's no clues as to what needs to be done, it's trial and error.
