ITT: Games that are harder than Dark Souls
>>339491054
This game wasn't that hard.
It's not. I replayed It shortly ago after all the 'this game tries to kick my ass' meme, and to be honest, the only real problem with this game Is checkpoints and possibly sidequests that demand you keep a single vehicule.
Dark Souls isn't the hard game that people make it out to be but come on OP. This Is just wrong.
>>339491054
>destroy ship at drill platform
>on hero mode
Well Dark Souls was easy so that isn't saying much.
Rayman 1. It's so hard that it stops being fun.
>>339491054
God Handwithout cheesing it
>mfw sonyponys think their shit fur bait excuses for franchises are in any way shape or form anything other than complete and utter dirty brown water trash
Rehash bandisloot, shy pooper, ratshit and stank, ballsac and haxtar, isharted and so many other shitty franchises are complete ass and the only reason anyone thinks they're anything close to not the functional equivalent of a heaping mound of garbage is because they were the few games that took more than 20 minutes to beat among the mountain of shovel ware shit that got dumped on the wobbleststion 2 which is all you played with when you were kids because your family was to fucking poor to buy anything other than some two bit nip cuck mediocre DVD player
Fuck off faggots
Id have to agree. Dark Souls takes care and patience but as long as you take your time it never seems impossible. Jak II is easy for the most part but what gives it is reputation are the 5 or so difficulty spikes spread throughout the game that require some pretty obtuse thinking. From the top of my head the levels that stuck with me are things like escaping from the docks after picking up that artifact, the hellcat cruiser mission and maybe the weapon depot level early on with the tank.
>>339491290
This, it's not bad until you get to this level, that's when it all goes to shit.
>>339491290
Fucking this. It's hard enough just to get through the levels, let alone fulfilling the goals to beat the final boss(100%)
>>339491391
Here, have a (You) and stop posting unbacked bullshit.

Just for the first like 2 hours until you get used to the mechanics

That game is neither hard nor good.

Ninja Gaiden Black
DMC 3 and 4 on DMD+
I guess New Vegas if you only wear leather but that's more masochism than actual difficulty
>>339491054
Jak 2 is the very definition of artificial difficulty.
>>339492889
>tripfag
>>339492936
I mean young me had no issues beating it so it can't be that bad.
Dark Souls is popular for being hard, but fair. Every single enemy is a reasonable challenge, but you can overcome them by playing well.
Most of the games in here, particularly Jak 2, are only hard in the sense that you will die often to finnicky platform sections or you need to need to memorize the route of a race or gun course or something.
>>339491672
>not punch-kicking each group of guards as soon as they drop
>not charging your way through the mission like a badass
I mean it was hard, yeah, but hardly impossible.
>>339492736

why
>>339491054
so what, any game then?
>>339491113
O rly?
>>339491672
destroy ships at drill platform on hero mode is objectively the hardest mission in the game
>>339494486
As much time as It took me, that one was fun.
>>339494486
That's not hard at all.
At least it wasn't this minigame.
I've got no idea how Naughty Dog managed to fuck up Pacman, but they did it.
>>339494293
to make you get good, how can a game be difficult if you just have to restart the level?
>>339491672
The harder you rush back of the docks, the easier it is.
You just push through. You don't sit still like a dumbass and try to pick off the guards. Just rush them to the other side. And pay more attention to knocking out the drones, and pick off only the guards you actually NEED to kill to progress.
Easy.
>>339494545
Holy fucking shit that level. Still haven't beat it to this day.
>>339491504
I gave up once I got to the boss in this area.
At least 80% of vidya from gens 1-5.
>>339492054
Sniper mission where you couldn't get seen.
God I loved that.
>>339491054
that fucking creepy dinosaur dog on the giant house level made me cry when I was 7
Reminder that all you needed to do for the docks mission was get on the fucking jetboard and follow the docks themselves, you don't have to kill a single kg guard and the ships themselves won't be able to shoot you in time despite their intimidating auto-lock. Don't even need to further cheese shit by killing the robot in the water either.
>>339495878
holy shit man I remember playing this game back when I was a kid but I don't remember if it was good
always wanted to play it but never bothered to download it again
>>339491672
Lemme let you in on the secret to winning this: Just don't rush it. The ships aren't infinitely respawning. Take your time to keep eliminating every wave one at a time. Then slowly move up each time.
This game sucks dick. Why isn't there a strafe?
>>339491229
Heres a trick for this section
By using giant dark jak you can climb over the rail and get rid of the enemies on the first path with a dark blast. Then switch to small head mode for better aim and memorize the place of each wave. Thats how i did it.
>>339491329
drunken fist can get you in some nasty situations if you get unlucky.
>>339495837
I'm not sure which mission you're referring to.
Was it in story mode? It's probably the dam in Siberia on hard mode then. That one was my favorite.
>>339496585
Is there even a point to Dark Jak mode in this game? I've seen maybe 3 situations in the entire game where it might have been useful but the shotgun blaster and the other guns already do a good job of clearing enemies.
>>339494486
I remember asking my older brother to always help me with this part
I miss him.
>>339496807
Dark mode transformations were in vogue at the time, and Jak 2 being the whore for gaming trends it was, decided to incorporate it without thinking about what it would actually do. You know, just like every other shit design decision in the game.
>>339496807
You take reduced damage and its a good screen clearer when you get your shit pushed in. Also destroys the bot in the docks mission so you can just jetboard through
>>339497238
>whore for gaming trends
That's what Naughty Dog has always been.
It's not a real complaint though, their games are still higher quality than most of the competition
>>339496495
I'm gonna one up that.
>>339497464
Up until Jak 2, sure.
>>339491054
I platinum'd this shit on Vita running at like 3 fps. Not very hard tbqh
>>339497517
thats not fair though. all of the AC games are harder on the fuckoff psp
>>339497701
Even played with a good controller like the Vita or via PPSSPP, the game has been tweaked to be even harder.
>>339497464
Eh, not really. Jak and Daxter in particular is a thoroughly mediocre series. Really their only notable feature is their lack of loading screens. And it's fucking impossible not to compare Jak2 and 3's core shooting mechanics to Ratchet and Clank's and see how absurdly short it measures up.
>>339497517
>tfw first armored core game
>didn't get good
i was too stupid
>>339496754
it was a challenge
>>339491054
DaS 3 was disappointingly easy...
>>339497796
>Really their only notable feature is their lack of loading screens.
That was really cool in the first game, and then in the sequels they just had
>>339497940
It's a lot easier when you have AC3, SL (PSP) or Nexus (PS2) to import from.
>>339498050
>and then in the sequels they just had those doors with the gears
NO KONAMI CODE
>>339497796
>And it's fucking impossible not to compare Jak2 and 3's core shooting mechanics to Ratchet and Clank's and see how absurdly short it measures up.
I haven't touched 3 but Jak 2 did come out before R&C2, so in comparison to the shooting in R&C1, Jak 2 is a significant step up. In comparison to every other R&C game you're right.
>>339491672
You get ammo from enemies plus you can use your hoverboard to get quickly to the end of the docks.
Although this mission was kinda BS.
>>339495517
Git gud scrublord
>>339491391
>Rehash bandisloot, shy pooper, ratshit and stank, ballsac and haxtar, isharted
Jesus Christ, how did you come up with this? How? Are you insane?
>>339498138
>>339498050
Honestly I see them more as tech demos than anything. They're undeniably impressive considering the hardware. Just like any other ND game really. But when people talk about how Knack was really mediocre, I can't help but notice that it's not all that different from other Mike Cerny designed games.
>>339496305
Can you kill the robot in the water? I didn't think you could. Either way, mission was easy as longs you rushed with Vulcan cannon and scatter gun
>>339497796
I like Jak more than R&C, because they have much more to them than just shooting and jumping. Every level in Jak 2 and 3 has a vastly different concept, while R&C is just the same thing from the beginning to the end
>>339494293
>Limited continues in a 3d re-imagining of ghosts n goblins
thats why
>>339491113
This /v/ is just shit at videogaames.
>>339498394
Jak 2 came out a month before going commando
not enough time to add gun mechanics
>>339494843
this one was much harder, holy shit you triggered me anon
>>339498394
>in comparison to the shooting in R&C1, Jak 2 is a significant step up
It isn't, really. Besides having a more restricted arsenal, the autolock is just plain worse. Not to mention the enemy variety, the upgrade sysem, the level design...it's really not even a contest.
>>339498701
>I like Jak more than R&C, because they have much more to them than just shooting and jumping.
That's true, Jak is a lot broader than R&C. But in the end all that extra shit is pretty poor in quality. The first game was really polished but too short; the sequels had so much to do but too little of it was actually good content.
>>339498701
>Every level in Jak 2 and 3 has a vastly different concept
They really don't, though. In fact they often reuse levels. Shit, how many times did we have to revisit the first area outside the city in Jak 2?
>>339498701
Jack 2 was kinda meh in that regard, you had large city which took most of the space and then some badlands.
I still regret they dumped beautiful Jack1 levels, no edgy shit, pretty fucking awesome level designs and gameplay.
Guns in J2 were ok but it would be better if they went with great enviro from J1.
>>339498828
Played Going Commando on PS3 as a HD collection and out of the curiosity, did PS2 version also had this godawfull deadzone?
I played MGS3 HD and noticed deadzone was up the ass and deadzone in R&C Going Commando HD were just as bad.
>>339498887
I like almost all the content in Jak 2 and 3, I guess it's just a matter of taste.
It's true that 1 is the most polished, but it's also pretty monotonous

>>339499018
I think you visit it two times. First time is platforming up a tower, second time you're in an armored suit.
You don't even explore the same parts of the level, it could just as well be a completely new onw
>>339499407
I remember visiting it to turn on the water, then to hunt with the guy from the bar, then to rescue the bitch.
Shit how many times WERE we there?
>>339499407
3 times, but you go to different sections each time.
>Get the flag off the tower
>Go to samos' hut
>Use armor suit
It uses the same setting but it doesn't use the same level design
>>339491391
>Jak & Daxter
>fur bait
This has to be bait, no one can possibly be this retarded.
