Yes, but LoZ is even easier.
Honestly you gotta be a teenager who started with the 7th/8th gen to think either are difficult.

Why is Japan so retarded
Dark Souls is still not that hard but just because you can cheese a boss doesn't mean you have to (I bet you he looked up a guide for it as well) either. The comment about artificial difficulty is also retarded, its like saying Pokémon is bad because of weaknesses.
Also he never said it was easy.

They just are. Despite that, they've managed to survive for centuries despite being disadvantaged against everyone in every field except the sub 2L shitbox category.

FUCK. We don't need A GUIDE FOR EVERY SINGLE ACTION IN GAME. God damn it. I hope this is fake.
I also wonder if he summoned for bosses.

Ninja Gaiden. I can't remember which one is the hardest. I know one of the original trilogy is easy and the other two are brutal.

>Not upgrading your shit
>"Suddenly would be useless"
Are you? I don't switch weapons for long stretches of the game because I don't have to, I just upgrade whatever I'm using at the time and that's more than enough to kill shit, no grinding or weapon swapping necessary.
Also physical on snakes? That's just as effective on any other enemy from my experience, I have no idea what their actual resistance is but they go down just as easy as any other demon for me
>>339457068
Morning star does just fine on the demon
I would imagine most people just bleed the fag out though
>>339457274
>upgrades
>implying I said anything about that
Enemies are resilient to weapon and element types regardless of upgrades. Not sure why this is blowing your mind. Even if you have no trouble with one weapon, you should know that different types work better against different enemies.
>>339455187
Well, they've never steered me wrong.
How many more years before /v/ retroactively loves Skyward Sword?
That piece of shit Twilight Princess is already getting a following.
>>339457528
>Implying you said anything
I don't think you realise what I'm saying, there's no weapon that I recall being "suddenly useless" against any enemy with the exception of the Drake Sword because >200 AR
Yes there are weapons that do less damage than normal against certain types of enemies, but they're not "suddenly useless" as the nip man claimed, and you can negate that happening entirely by upgrading weapons. It doesn't blow my mind in the slightest that enemies are more resilient to certain types of damage? Not sure where you got that since I even mentioned something to that effect, but bottom line is that no weapon is ever "suddenly useless" and even if it was, you can negate it by just playing the game normally.
>>339457528
If your weapon is upgraded enough, from what I've seen you can get away with anything but slash on most enemies, even with regular on stone knights takes longer, but it is doable. My last character I used the starting mace for %80 of the game.

That's just silly to say it's too easy. It BECOMES too easy when you've played through it once or twice, but no way it's easy on your first playthrough.

>>339458295
Otr maybe because it's consequently been a franchise for kids its inception. The only reason the amount of cryptic stuff in Zelda lessened over the years is because cryptic stuff no longer sells Nintendo Power.
>>339455692
It happens all the damn time not "useless" but it gets close. I think he means "all of the sudden a method of dispatching the enemies in this area is completely different from the method of this other area" and so what he was using is now basically useless once he finds out the whole "this guys is weaker to x than y." Of course this has been a thing in RPGs since FF on NES, so I guess Aonuma is still an idiot.
>>339454721
I just finished playing Dark Souls for the first time and I mostly agree with him. Gwyn was a shit boss gameplay-wise, he was way too easy to cheese with parries. I think strongest aspects of the game are the environments, atmosphere and sense of exploring, combat is alright but nothing to fawn over. I dropped NG+ since knowing where everything is and what to do killed the game for me.
Also, read the damn thing properly, Aonuma isn't calling out Dark Souls for being easy, he's just saying it's obtuse
>>339459168
>if you can cheese a boss you HAVE to cheese him
Did you play through the entire game using magic and summoning btw? Because that's practically the same thing as cheesing Gwyn with parrys.
>>339457768
I can accept people who don't like Wind Waker because it's very truncated in terms of content.
Twilight Princess is just a more expanded, content rich OoT, which itself is a great game to play still.
>>339458295
It doesn't have to be. They should add brutal areas though that are optional.
>>339459601
>cheesing Gwyn with parrys
>using an in-game mechanic that was deliberately included in the last fight by the devs is "cheesing"
>>339460283
So did you play through the entire game using magic and summoning or not? Because those are also deliberately included in-game mechanics.
>>339454721
The only thing that matters is that he is aware that Skyward Sword was trash
>>339459601
He's the only boss you can parry, seemed like a legitimate option to me when I found out. I was expecting a second phase or something so I didn't try to intentionally make it feel more dramatic. I was playing a Dex build as blind as you meme loving fuck let me, by the way.
>>339456238
I liked the game, but it was still pretty much just a reskinned Dark Souls.
Wonderful 101 was probably the best game I played this gen. Which is kinda sad how it came out before the PS4 or Xbone were even released. I own all the consoles and a bunch of games but nothing has felt as great or memorable as previous generations were.
>The first time you played Bioshock

See what I mean?
>>339460359
I really dislike this argument. Why is it fair to look down on a player for choosing to use magic primarily? It's not their fault that the game isn't exactly well balanced for it, and most don't use magic because they know it'll make the game easier.
This is coming from a sword and board player btw.
DS is easier than Zelda, if you summon for every fucking area and boss.
That's why pacifist runs are possible where the player kills nothing but the tutorial boss.
>>339460992
Because people who parry spam the Gwyn fight are most often also the same people who hate on magic for being "easy mode".
>>339461154
Do you have a single fact to back that up?
>>339454721
>artificial difficulty
There's that meme again
>>339454721
No fucking way.
This is the man who struggled with Octroroks in the NES Zelda and turned them into bosses instead of regular enemies.
>>339456709
>NG3RE
I'm sorry you played that piece of shit. If you want a good game play Vanilla NG1 or NGB.
>>339460778
Bioshock is incredibly overrated. It's a poor man's System Shock.
>>339454892
Anon's asshole.
Aonuma is on record as stating he dies to Octoroks in the original Zelda and thinks the most fun things about LttP are cutting grass and lifting rocks.
Aonuma would piss himself if he had to play Dark Souls for more than 5 minutes.

I know you kids are underage, but Ninja Gaiden existed before the Xbox. Calling the 3D games "the original trilogy" is wrong.
>>339454721
>of course, I created Fi, so it's nice to hear that other creators have gone too far in the other direction.
This right here should be enough to realize that this is fake. I doubt Aonuma has enough awareness to specifically pinpoint that Fi was the problem people had with SS over just the entire game being too hand holdy.
>>339465252
Why are you quoting me when I never claimed the Team Ninja version of Ninja Gaiden was the one and only?
>>339456238
Eh, not really. The game is good, but it's not like it was this awesome new thing. It was just Dark Souls in a different setting. And even still, Dark Souls 1 is a way better game.
>>339465252
The difference is that the 3D Trilogy is actually good and fair compared to the NES games.
Outside of a handful of bosses, Dark Souls is not hard.
There, I said it.
