Kind of talked about this in the Sony State of Play topic... Games you think are great just that you suck at them... This came up when they showed the Lies of P DLC For instance, I like Sekiro but I can't parry for shit and always end up stuck... One my four attempts at the game, I got stuck at Genichiro in the tower 3 times and Guardian Ape on the last try... Also because of my inability to parry, I was dogshit at Stellar Blade (Also had trouble timing the dodge as well) and am not great at Lies of P either... so I never got that far into either game People did tell me there were upgrades in Stellar Blade to help with parrying/dodging but I never got far enough to even have those as an option --- NNID:MrOddities|PSN:OddGamer2013 Playing:|Pokemon Scarlet/Violet|Fallout 76|Balatro|Pokemon Emerald Seaglass| ...

Pretty much any Souls game. They all look great, but I just don't have the patience to get good with them. I'm also not great at pattern recognition. The most fun I had with them I think was a Dark Souls 3 mod called pocket souls. You don't attack but instead capture the enemies in pokeballs and use your captured enemies against the rest. ...

The entire fighting game genre. I will play any fighting game against any person i know at any point because I find them so unbelievably fun, but even when I get a new one at launch I just don't have the time to grind, so inevitably after a month or so the only people left online are just too good to fight. --- "History Is Much Like An Endless Waltz.

Returnal. I actually finished it in about 10 hours with around 5 deaths or so but the whole experience was so stressful and anxiety inducing I'm not sure I really enjoyed any of it until I could breathe again once the credits were rolling. It plays amazingly well but I'd have loved it a lot more if it was closer to a rougelite than a roguelike. I was so afraid of dying due to the time commitment that I spent the entire game on my toes which just ended up being exhausting. Typically though if I ever went back to it I might enjoy it a lot now I don't care about getting to the end anymore. Also after Demon's Souls I won't even consider any of the Fromsoft titles in that general series. I didn't hate it but it's the similar issue with Returnal, I find dying too punishing from a time perspective so I'd rather not gamble and just play something else. None of this would be an issue with difficulty options but seeing as they're steadfast in not including any I don't wanna drop the money on it. --- "I still have a tattoo to get, that says I'm living in the moment." ...

bsp77 posted... So you were actually really fucking good at itNo I don't think so. I was playing it like my life depended on it and it was pretty miserable. I'm sure I'd do well in a Souls game if I played like that but it was not a fun experience. If I wasn't playing it like I was locked in a house at night with the power out and there was a killer clown somewhere specifically trying to find me, I'd have died a billion times. --- "I still have a tattoo to get, that says I'm living in the moment." ...

MOBAs. I never played Dota but I'm garbo at League. MOBA-adjacent stuff like Dealock and Supervive I don't really count, but I'm less shit at those probably because the gameplay itself isn't very MOBA like. --- https://static.tumblr.com/fxyqnnj/aUMm09zol/alvin_and_leia.gif ... Copied to Clipboard!

The only issue is being miserable for some reason.It's kinda the difference between someone being actually good at a fighting game and someone button mashing and winning anyway. Except instead of mashing buttons I was doing the total opposite, it would have been horrific to watch. Hugging walls, entering every room toe-first. It definitely wasn't skilled gameplay.

Devilanse333 posted... Really wanted to get into Dark Souls. Got my a$$ handed to me by level 1 skeletons.I've contemplated a DS series playthrough 1-2-3. It's been awhile, 2014 when 2 came out. Never played 3. Anyway the way to beat the game is watch for patterns. The first area know that skeltons that use swords first attack is to lunge. Bow skeletons its a timed attack. You can count them out. 1...2 shoot. You then roll. FS likes to put them in suprise places like the stairs before the Taurus Demon. Rinse repeat rest of the game. Watch for patterns, watch the environment. You will die many times. Dont get discouraged. I can say one thing those games teach. You get knocked down you get back up. Dont give up. When you finish it the first time its the greatest feeling in the world --- I was born when she kissed me. I died when she left me. I lived a few weeks while she loved me- ... Copied to Clipboard!
