Why would you give A From Software game an easy mode? Thats like making OG monster hunter monsters more predictable if that makes any sense
Gonna have to respectfully disagree there. I personally didn't notice anything different about 'em besides Gyorg and Twinmold (which I actually really like), and that comes from someone who played the original on Wii VC years before the 3DS remake.
I understand your point, but here's my take.
Okay, I believe in the Metroid Prime and Link to the Past leak more.
I mean, Odollwa is pretty obvious.Gonna have to respectfully disagree there. I personally didn't notice anything different about 'em besides Gyorg and Twinmold (which I actually really like), and that comes from someone who played the original on Wii VC years before the 3DS remake.
Only part about the remake that's kind of bad is Zora swimming, but the Chateau Romani fixes it so it doesn't bug me too much.
>Assuming Intern-kun is ****ing up and isn't deliberately leaking
it's more only because the topic came up
I just have a problem with the Zelda series being slow when the whole point of them is to explore and fight. Breath of the Wild satiated this perfectly because the story is completely optional after the Great Plateau so you can move at your own pace. Before that, they were games I typically never finished because I found a "funner" game instead.
Alright, let me play devil's advocate here. The difference between adding something like an easy mode to dark souls and something like speedrunning is man hours and dev time. Speedrunning, nuzlockes, all that, that's on the player, it's their doing, the devs have no involvement. Obviously it isn't going against the dev's intent, that'd be like saying walking into walls in an rpg goes against the developer. But with something like adding an easy mode, that's on the dev. It's them using their dev time to add something, and that's where I think intent comes into play. You bring up how some people like say, dark souls for the lore and not the gameplay, but the fact of the matter is not every game is made for everybody. Some game target a specific niche audience, and while it's unfortunate some can't enjoy the games because of it, it's not that big of a deal imo. Plenty of games out there. If a dev wants to add something like an easy mode or a narrative only mode? Sure go for it! It's there game, they can do what they want, and if they think it's fine, then it's fine. But I don't think it's a dev's responsibility to make every game accessible.
Or have ever modded a game/supported a mod etc.
Could be. Could also not be.
What about speed running?
Sure, but this time they gave us an actual good reason to believe them(They have Joker's render).
That falls under a self-imposed challenge AND also frequently involves exploits
That would be a self-imposed challenge.
If it’s ok, I’d like to give my thoughts as well. I love the diversity of the track when it comes to representing FE. Even if a game didn’t get 2 full songs like the 3DS games, their segments in the medleys made up for it. There’s also a good mix of map themes, battle themes, boss themes, etc. I think the Battle Medley might be my favorite track, it’s entire duration is epic to listen to since it’s made up of mostly killer boss themes.
Bud can I please ask you to stop sharing his stuff

needs no more publicity by means of absurdity
Considering the game's design with traps and mimics, a mode that just lets you do more damage, take more damage and have more stamina than usual would make it an easier time for people who struggle with the game but the game's sense of danger will still be noticed and kept. Dark Souls' idea of teaching the player mechanics is 'kill you with it, learn how to not die' which is still very doable in that regard, as even with the boosts, you'll end up learning to check your surroundings and feel paranoid around treasure chests. Then there's also the aspect of a game's design not properly teaching you a more fun way. I think Hbomberguy's Bloodborne video brings up a youtuber who's visibly stressed and isn't really having a good time when he first played Dark Souls with the shield and spear, but fast forward to Bloodborne, a game which teaches you to be more aggressive, has the same youtuber be overall more positive on the game and clearly enjoying himself when beating bosses instead of sighing of relief
Aha, I love this! The shading is really good, it gives the picture more expression.View attachment 204274
KMDP xD Remember what you asked for that had Kirby riding on Ridley's head and him looking frustrated? XP Well, let's say that Kirby could not get EVEN close to riding him!
No. So why post it?
That's pretty much what it comes down to. The developers make what they want to make. I will add that it would be wise for the developers of a series to not go too far out of their way to try to appeal to people who aren't the target audience, or you risk losing the people who were certain to buy it normally.
Although I agree on this point, what if a dev encourages speedrunning? Whether it be an in game reward or just by design.
Started a Dark Souls debate on its’ difficulty, of course
