Comment on Elden Ring Player to Sue FromSoftware Over High Game Difficulty

teft@lemmy.world ⁨4⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago

I think you need to reread my comments. I don’t really care if someone likes the game or not. I only care if someone says they can’t get good at it when they put in less than the minimal effort. It makes me wonder if people like that gave up riding a bike since they couldn’t ride professional downhill racing tracks in the first hour of learning to ride.

I find my comment completely valid. That “minimal” effort is just entertainment gate keeping. If they don’t have it in them to spend that extra effort it’s their choice and if you want them to change, complaining about it is very backwards.

You could have suggested them to ignore the tree sentinel or Margit, hoever was their first enemy, you could have suggested the to explore the game and ignore hard enemies just like in skyrim we ignored trolls, bears or dragons until we levelled up… Idk, anything but “you didn’t even try how dare you say you don’t like it” wtf.

  The first enemy is meant to destroy you. You skip him and find other things to do and come back later when you’ve leveled up. It’s an open world game.
  
  You mean where I do exactly that?

    Right after berating them for not trying, great effort.

    So your argument against playing for longer than an hour and getting good is playing less than two hours and refunding? You need to play the game for a few hours to understand the combat systems and the way that enemies react.
    
    This is not a berating statement. This is a question followed by a statement of fact. Neither of which is scolding the OP.
