    Breath of Fire: I'd say more than a reboot it just needs to come back haha. We've seen stuff like the upcoming Eiyuuden Chronicle: Hundred Heroes which will be a spritual comeback of Suikoden, then there's Sea of Stars which while doing pretty unique things is clearly a love letter to Chrono Trigger. I think there's enough nostalgia and fans of old school JRPGs that a game in the style of BoF III or IV with an adequate budget will be able to make a healthy profit. If Capcom doesn't bring BoF back which seems extremely unlikely I believe there's space there for a spiritual successor.

    Ask away! Forums need activity and like some have pointed out, if people want to reply they'll do so, if not they'll just bounce around the boards. So no need to feel weird of apologize imo

    Oh and another thing, the "3000 death" thing is not a flex, it's just an example. It is also related to the game design, cuz you can die thousands of times in a game like Meat Boy and it doesn't sting much cuz it's super fast paced and designed for the player to iterate the levels over and over with no downtime. The walking back to the boss in Souls is super annoying and also tests patience (and makes the game artificially longer cuz if it was just a gauntlet with the bosses it'd be over super quickly for a lot of players)

    I don't think it's impossible for most, what it's not possible for them is to not rage quit cuz they are not patient and that's fine, in the end this is just video games hahaha That was my whole point. That some things remain difficult even if you put more hours, not sure if I can explain it well with words. At any rate this whole thread is just a thing for fun so I don't need anyone else to agree with me we all have our own takes and difficulty is a subject that is kinda pointless to debate anyway cuz there's no real way to measure anything. Also I wouldn't say they are easy either (Souls games) but they are, once again, in my humble opinion, FAR from the hardest games and some people seem to consider themselves gods because they beat them haha its kinda funny to watch tbh

    I succa at FPS hahaha but yeah you have some good points there ๐Ÿ™‚ And me platinuming super hard high execution games like the Ys series is mostly due to me being SUPER stubborn, I rather die trying than quit anything I start. Same with Souls, etc... And next up: Jump King and NecroDancer, those will be the end of me but I'll get those fkers haha

    I enjoy turn-based but nowadays I prefer high-speed Action RPG combat

    Ys Origin's final boss with... Also Ys: The Oath in Felghana's final boss is a really memorable battle. I really enjoyed some of Hollow Knight's boss encounters: Sisters of Battle, Nightmare King Grimm, those were pretty fun!

    That's true as well, but I'll die on the hill that once you crack the code of being patient the Souls games reputation gets demystified. It's not going to make you untouchable and you can still fuck up, but the mechanics of it pretty much involve paying attention to telegraphs and knowing when to input the roll/dodge/parry whatever or get that invuln frame down. Some people will grab it in a couple tries, others might struggle, doesn't mean the concept is hard. Oh yeah, this I agree. I know plenty of those types, in my journey as a full time streamer, I've met a lot of people that have babyfied it haha thru 100s of hours of practice and insane reflexes and reaction times. Now an interesting question: Is there a way to objectively measure difficulty? I think that right there is a bit of a problem and hence we'll never agree but to me Souls games are like in the middle of the spectrum of difficulty. They are not without challenge but I can think of many games I consider way harder ez
  9. RibsChirino
    I'd say both Super Meat Boy and Hotline Miami are way more difficult than any Souls game I've played so far yet they don't waste the player's time, no walks of shame to recover your corpse/souls/exp, no downtime whatsoever. I do think personal preference or mindset like you said plays a big role, I believe difficulty is subjective as well so some people might find X game harder than others, but my take remains that Souls ain't as hard as people say, or at least those get increasingly punishing for impatient people.

    Not sure what does the mechanical hand have to do with it haha aside from the rhythm or twitch gameplay I think they share a lot of common concepts. However and I have to say for the record, I've only played/rolled credits on 3 Souls games: Bloodborne (first one I played, died 98 times since "New game" to credits), Sekiro (died 313 times) and Demon's Sous (died 176 times). That's very baby imo, I was sloppy and understimating the challenge for most of the games, dying PLENTY more running back to bosses than in bosses themselves. For comparison: Ys Origin (died 1885 times for 100%), Ys Felghana (died 2758! times for 100%) I don't see me dying more than 1000+ times on any of the Souls games for 100% but maybe I will ๐Ÿ˜›

    I disagree respectfully because good and patient mean different things. ie. waiting a few seconds for the right opportunity to hit instead of mashing the attack button and getting smacked because of not being patient. I've seen so called "terrible gamers" beat Souls games (and even 100% them) once they find that the only barrier was their own impatience and incapacity to delay the gratification of pushing buttons for a bit. So in a way these games either teach you how to manage anxiety or you will permafail at them. Of the Soulsbornekiro (lol) games Sekiro is the one I think has a higher skill requirement because if a player is bad with hand-eye coordination the parry and stuff like Mikiri Counter will probably give said player a lot of trouble. I still hold they are nowhere near as hard as people say but hey, this is an opinion thread after all and we all have different ones ๐Ÿ™‚

    I think Diablo has overall gone downhill since the 1st game haha I still like that one the best, and the sequels are fun games but never captured the mood of the 1st game for me. Still haven't played D4 but it looks cool

    I have an "unpopular" one that seems to be becoming the mainstream or popular one nowadays, considering the market dynamics of the last couple years (and future projections): Digital > Physical as far as media go. I have a shit ton of physical goods back home that I haven't been able to move here and I'm not looking forward to getting them here. I love the convienience of logging in on my devices and having access to my library. Other than that, I have another that seems more common nowadays: Souls games are not difficult, they just HAMMER impatient players who want to button mash and facetank everything, but if you pay attention they reveal their patterns so you can react appropriately. Guess I don't really have unpopular opinions haha

    Nice! The Legend of Heroes: Trails in the Sky is my 4th game in the queue, so hopefully it won't be too long... HOWEVER, I first have to beat Jump King, Crypt of the NecroDancer and The Legend of Dragoon, and beating means 100% Achievements/Trophies so it will probably be a bit haha (this is based on the voting system I've been running on my stream for the last few years) This is the current Top 10 queue:
  15. RibsChirino
    Hahaha I'm so curious, I hope I remember to ask @Shrimpy -Limited Edition-about the Trails stuff when I play it. I don't hate any games to be honest, probably the closest is Mighty No. 9, that's probably the game I like the least ๐Ÿ˜ž Inafune got me hardcore
