Heather, bless you for asking the RP question.

Man, that artwork is just flat out rad.

Honestly the voice direction for ALL characters can be currently summed up as “yelling inexplicably because no one told them the context of the line as they’re reading it off the cue sheet”, which I guess is ok for a hastly-produced trailer, but if the finished game actually sounds like that, I’d find it hard to…

I’m kind of with you but I’m hopeful this will be good. I’ve always had the opinion that the Advent Children film and the other spinoffs didn’t have the same tone/feel of the original game, and I’m kind of afraid the remake will be more like the former and less like the latter. Regardless I’m going to be playing it.

I’m seriously impressed that not only is there still a Frog debuff, but they highlighted it in the goddamn trailer.

That boss battle went on for too long. I really don’t have the time to spend 15 mins wittling down the first boss. The combat looks like a chore.

“Hey Bob?”

They were on a space kiln/factory/volcano planet called, “Mustafar” fighting while balancing on floating robot buckets, using laser swords and something called, “the force,” to attack each other, and you’re going to point out that the high ground means nothing in a sword fight?

While Obi-Wan stood the high ground, you studied the blade.

More mobile garbage? Hard pass.

The stress of Sekiro is in the timings though. Failure and death in sekiro is largely irrelevant. In many instances you can just throw yourself at the bosses and retry as often as you want. Some require lesser enemy picking off here and there. Yes people get rot but its manageable due to items you can purchase and…

I don’t think that’s entirely a fair assessment of the ‘other side’. If anyone argued that NO games should be accessible, that’s insane. But it’s also not what anyone is saying, and I’m not sure strawmanning it out to that is helpful. Not being able to participate in an entire medium is awful. Not being able to…

Games aren’t books or movies, Heather. By design, they’re not going to be playable by everybody. That’s too bad, but that’s the nature of the medium.

I will never understand why anyone would want something like the Souls titles or Sekiro to have an easy mode. What would be the point of that? Sure, they have lore and story to experience, but those things are vague and confusing, and absolutely take a backseat to the gameplay. The difficulty and skill required…

But you should expect these things. You should be mentally and emotionally prepared for stupid crap like this, because this is a planet full of human beings. You’re right, you shouldn’t have to, people should just not be assholes ever, right? That’s not reality. You can’t change the assholes, you can only change the…

“Why get so worked up?" I'm not worked up but this false outrage culture is getting tiring and sets a precedent for studios to bend the knee for the screeching minority of people who find things this trivial offensive.

The animus doesn’t require ancestral connections but the whole idea of the assassins and their special powers comes from people with first civilization blood being around and, you know, having eagle vision or whatever.

This is the stupidest god damned controversy ever. In a game where you’re traveling back in time in the mind of an ancestor, people are upset that that ancestor had to procreate to continue the bloodline that allows the game’s plot to happen at all? If you’re offended by this shit, you’re a dork and need to get a life.

How dare those entitled gamers, wanting to have fun while playing a game!?!

You sound more like the coward here... obsessed with a random commenter to the point of proudly reposting some bullshit reply of theirs that literally no one cares to read. “Ever so adult”.
