How Dark Souls Perfected Difficulty in Video Games
14 255 Vaatamised 1,4 mln
OH AND BTW! This video doesn't include anything about Demon Souls, mostly because I still haven't been able to get a PS5 and I'm assuming I have to perform a dark ritual to even play one, so it didn't feel right talking about it. I'm sure the new Demon Souls fits my feelings towards the entire genre, but I figured I'd explain why I never mentioned it. MAN DO I WANNA PLAY DEMON SOULS THO :'(
About assassins assassin's Creed
You should try Hitman it's also really fun. You also have to improve and fail in hitman but in a different way than Dark Souls and its really fun
Just play demon souls on ps3 like I did
I've played (i was lucky with the Ps5) and let me tell you right away, IT IS AMAZING, have fun with it
It's fun but its not original. Isn't it just a rouge-like?
When I'm asked what games I play, my only answer is souls🤕
Glad to see a video about difficulty needing to be designed as an experience. Big companies pump out run-of-the-mill games with difficulty sliders so fast that it saturates the game market with the same uninspired experiences. Either they need to curate a difficult experience or they need to have a clever AI system that is actually dynamic enough to get scaled. Both require too much work for most developers I guess. Anyway... Great video!
4:37 oh no....... AMOGUS
I mean this is just how all game's used to be back in the day, "what you died to the ridiculous final boss that has three stages and can one shot you, well guess you have to start stage 6 over again."
When you have made a soul connection with dark soul. Can I say that you have a pretty dark soul?
Hollow Knight is my favorite soulslike game. It took the difficulty of Dark Souls and perfectly placed it with the best Metroidvania upgrades and exploration.
The most honest message and lesson in this video is "you want Skyrim? I got *twenty* "
“You want Skyrim? I’ve got twenty” that fuckin killed me
4:18 Uhh does someone want to tell him about the wheel skeletons.
Gives off hella sequelitis vibez
“No more catnip!”
What about Hollow Knight? It has some kind of similarity with the souls saga's difficulty!
why is link to your twitch channel dead?
Try synthetik too.and dragons dogma.
Nailed it
Cough super battle droids cough
I beat dark souls 2 while only dying 10 times, which is a massive upgrade from dark souls one which I died nearly 500 times
Those people that 1-2-3 hit everything have minmaxed their build that’s how they do it. But other than that the secret to dark souls is timing and attack patterns. Most importantly. Frames
You should look at terraria
Almost everyone in my friend group is a really big fan of dark souls and I have tried it but I just don’t get the same enjoyment
1:24 You forgot to mention people dropping the Hard R/N Word whenever they get backed into a corner in game chat or if you make them mad enough, *white people especially*
Do you play Hunt Showdown?
I started playing dark souls in 2021 and I'm on ng 3
This reminds me of egoraptor's sequelitis and made me happy
Unpopular opinion darksouls= 3d version of ghosts n ghouls
I got the game and now that ive beaten it 3 times I realize I will never find another game as good as this
I want a ps5 only to play Demon's Souls.
When I was a kid I rented dark souls 2 and couldn’t pass the first boss three days and I couldn’t pass but I fell in love with the game fast forward a few years I play and beat dark souls then a few years later dark souls 3 comes out and I beat it after that I remembered how hard it was for me on dark souls 2 so when I finally went back to it like 7 years after first trying and I beat the shit out of the first boss and it was so rewarding
2 good games I can think of without a difficulty slider is “enter the gungeon” and “hollow knight” although they don’t have top notch graphics their still challenging and amazing games I would recommend
Why is this so smooth
I "mastered" all the souls games available on PC. But God, I fucking suck playing Sekiro. Been stuck at Gyoubu Oniwa for months. I'm a disgrace
Why am I not subscribed yet, gotta correct this mistake
All solo player games are TRASH . Great vid tho : )
lol sure bro
2:47
Wait was the doctor markiplier
Really i understand why dark souls is so liked but... i just felt it just like a solo grinding game that, even if you know the patterns of the mobs and bosses you meet, there are always moments when the game tells you : "you can't beat this enemy you are smart but not strong enough, go grind some weirdos", so last time i played i was like "ok F.U. game, difficulty is cool, grinding is cancer". What i think is stupid is mostly the people who already reacted to my criticism of the gameplay (not the difficulty). It seems to just not be what makes me having any fun, that's all, but what came from the DS community for the most is this famous childish reaction "lololol get skills you pussy". This gave me a bad image of the DS community and by extension a bad image of the game. What a waste ^^' The game is good, just not for me maybe. I'll try it again some day.
This sounds like enter the gungeon all over again. It took me 400 tries I cant do it again
Dark souls is a game where it actually shows how humans are compqred to the other creature... Not gonna lie i didnt play this.
I love playing though darksouls one and I've beaten it 3 times since I first played it in 2019 but darksouls three I have struggled to get into mostly because the areas all look identical or at least all the ones up to abyss watchers whitch I really wish I could get invested in it like I did with the first one but I just couldn't. I have beat dark souls 2 kinda got sick of it when I went onto the dlcs though I just got burnt out.
Oh wow strawberry.
i am a veteran because NO CAP i beat ds1/2/3 very fun and hard time for NG+
I think the only Thing that is hard in Dark Souls is coming to the boss again after you died
I’m playing dark souls 3 rn and I’m pissed because I can’t pass the first boss
Wait till you play the first game
1:40 I disagree
Dark Souls is not difficult, its just annoying
Wanna have something harder than playing Dark Souls with one hand? Play against a team of Aimbots on TF2. It turns from FPS to multiplayer horror survival real quick
you should try legend of Zelda Hyrule warriors somewhat like this
TLDR: He is a masochist gamer
jeez I have been gone a while and his animation is soooo good
It’s kinda like cuphead
You do know that the difficulty of dark souls was unintentional right?
I suggest you play slay the spire or darkest dungeon. They're both difficult by design and incredibly unique.
I can’t I just can’t DS broke me I bought every DS game and dlc thinking I can do this. I’ve been playing video games since MK on the nes (MK 1 was my first game I ever played when I was 5) I have over 200 games under my belt and my gamer score is 107299. I can’t defeat Taurus I just can’t 🤕
I play in 2021 a ya
Yeah my niece is the Dark Souls of toddlers! "Fuck you for no letting me get hurt doing stupid shit but also fuck you for allowingn me to to do so!"
dark souls 1 is my favorite game of all time. I remember playing back when it came out in my xbox 360. funny thing is skyrim was around the corner and dark souls single handedly ruined any joy I could have had playing skyrim. to me, skyrim and similar games were sooo boring after dark souls. it's seriously no joke when people say dark souls made other games non-enjoyable for them. I can relate 10000% to that.
3:56 yeah except for Salt and Sanctuary that game is too hard for a 2d dark souls
Less of Dark Souls is good and difficult sliders are bad. And I couldn't agree more. Halo Legendary is just, no...
I still haven’t played dark souls yet for a sound reason, and that reason is because I know I’m going to spend like $500 worth on controllers. It looks hard, and it’s more fun to watch someone play. And my Volcano Shadow controller looks too cool to break.
This is how I feel playing hollow knight and ill die like 7 times to a boss before I have a chance against it.
I grew up on nes games tough as nails. I got Castlevania when I was 10 I couldn't finish it until I was 15. Some games took years before I could finish them. I spent a year playing nothing but the first Dark Souls. By the time I was done I had a PHD in the game.
Did u just literally use a tailed beast roar for that cats voice
You need to try Dragon Dogma.
Dark souls sound like hollow knight
I've never experienced rage in a game as much as the Anor Londo archers. I wanted to kill someone!
I love this video
Just got the game I’m ready for PAIN
Why do I feel like this is a huge sponser vid
I just bought dark souls remastered...ha ha I'm in danger
Ornstien and smough was friggin PAIN
I suggest trying Hollow Knight! Super late to commenting on this but this resonated with me, i started playing these games within the last 3ish years and felt the same
1:40-1:53 this is a lie if your a og and can nearly one hit.... try beating soul of cinder first try
Oh my God someone finally put it into words.
as someone with 1,000+ hours in DS3, this is 100% accurate.
If you play new game plus it's fuck you even more
You should try Celeste, it’s kinda sorta really hard especially in the late game. Like I spent 7 hours on a single room level hard. And God dammit if it isnt satisfying when you finally get beat it. Then it’s all like SIKE and it throws your face into a brick wall. 9/10, good experience
Hollow knight is dark souls but not.... you know.... rated M.
youve never played monster hunter 1 or 2 have you?
yeah dark souls is basically the heroine of games
Nice
you need to play dead cells, if you like hades and dark souls' toughness
...Except for Midir
Dark souls is stuck on FUCK YOU but that's okay is now how I describe it to people who ask why I myself through playing them
I a DS rep was in smash, they would be hard to play, and hard to beat
Now play doom eternal on ultra nightmare if you do you will understand the tag line “raze hell”
Me over here just playing minecraft
NG+ Hodrick goes against that whole difficulty thing because he scales in strength from average to 20 Midirs.
You forgot to draw the Basilisk' eyes, the large "eyes" on top of it's head are fake.
And he didn't even talk about NG+
*Coughs in being late to WOW*
Whaaaat i thougth you been in PC your animation is now better than that
“You want Skyrims? I’ve got 20!” Ah, I see you’re a man of culture as well
Simply Put, Monster Hunter.
tarkov....
Far Cry 5 is really the Dark Souls of Far Cry. I played on easy and did NOT instantly kill 20 enemies at once. 2/10
What’s the Outro song
Dark Souls is like BloodBorne
"You want skyrims; I got 20" I felt that
