I Wish I Had Pirated This Game

[Ashbringer]

I am not gonna lie of all of the souls games this is by far the worst I think I had more fun playing Dark Souls II this game just feels so lifeless and not fun. The whole experience wasn't ♥♥♥♥ but once you leave Limgrave the game just feels so unbalanced like they really ♥♥♥♥♥♥ up the difficulty curve on this one.

31st post on this page. I did not quote you. You're just bored and need to take something personally that wasn't even meant for you. Touch grace, pal.

It's because he wrote "bucket list", and you wrote "laundry list" - he thought you meant him. Honest mistake/mixup I think.

So anything at all that mentions piracy is advocating it? By that logic, every single person in this thread should be permanently banned from steam for advocating piracy, since we've all been discussing it.

I never said that at all.

I pointed out that your example of a well known idiom (that no one has taken to be about literal horsemeat consumption for a couple of centuries) is incompatible to this thread.

No first play I died like a ♥♥♥♥♥ the no death run was a futile attempt to try and keep this game in a positive light I really wanted to like this game but it was just so boring to me.

I'm gonna give you the benefit of doubt and say that you're not a troll. Sounds like the game just wasn't for you. I'm sorry that you got buyers remorse. TBH games should have demos before you buy, so that ♥♥♥♥ like this doesn't happen.

Not a troll I do enjoy Souls games but this one particular just felt boring an uninteresting although the reforged mod and Seamless had made it better.

I just went back and read through the thread. You directly quoted me three times. But fair enough ill drop it.

I think the point of the idiom is that a whole horse is very big.

Btw a similar idiom here is: "I'm so hungry, I could dunk a kid in my coffee."

I used a well known idiom as an example because it's well known. I think you're intentionally missing the point of what I said, and using the idiom itself to discredit me instead of actually replying to the message.

Anyway, I am about to get some weed so I'm gonna be dipping out of this conversation. If you ever wanna do seamless coop, I can show you around the world and I think I might be able to get you to like it.

But you're entitled to your opinion, there's no law saying you have to enjoy elden ring, and I personally do not think you were advocating piracy or deserve a ban.

I also genuinely wish you a good day =)

You were using the idiom to make a point, and it doesn't work.

Then you accuse me of making a claim I never did.

lol and now you're trying to pretend to a victim, and accuse me of "discrediting" you when all I did was tackle your argument.

No it's not the same as someone who said "man I'm so hungry I could eat a horse". That's a culturally established idiom that is hyperbolic and figurative. Saying "I hate this game, I wish I pirated it" is like saying...."This movie isn't work paying for, I should have pirated it".

And when you say "this movie isn't worth paying for, I should have pirated it", it's telling people that maybe they should not pay for the movie.

Maybe try to actually think through what you're saying instead of white knighting a troll.

It's not a bad game at all but as a Souls game it's the weakest. The open world really doesn't work for this genre.

My main issues with the game is the gameplay that is fixed with reforged mod the second is bosses which if this game had random chance encounters instead of
Scripted fights it would definitely be a boon in it's favor just imagine killing too many of x summons a mariner or something similar that would have been cool oh and raid bosses something like Radahn but better.

This is going to be my last post for tonight because I have pot to smoke, but I respect you for going back to my post and directly responding to it, and I apologize for saying you were trying to discredit me. You're post here proved me wrong.

Your post makes some very good points. I still disagree personally, and think that it's kind of a stretch to think that OP is actively trying to get people to pirate elden ring, but you do bring up good points and a good counter argument. I'm just gonna say lets agree to disagree.

I don't think my actions were white knighting a troll either, in fact I've made posts in this thread calling the person out as a troll, and agreeing with others who have done the same (before the thread progressed further and I made my own opinions on the matter)

You bring up great points, and are obviously an intelligent person, but everything you say also comes off as a personal attack, you may want to get that in check, unless you are in fact personally attacking others. But like I said, you bring up some very good points, and are clearly very intelligent. Let's just agree to disagree, balls in your court. I'm out of this thread I got ♥♥♥♥ to do.

well i guess you learned a lesson OP, AAA games rarely deliver on their promises. So get the "Free"" version first and if you like it then buy

Sorry to interrupt, but what if one would say "I Wish I Had Played This Game on YT"?

youre not really playing the game youre watching someone else play it and sometimes that is illegal depending on the game. But alot of people do exactly that when they watch streamers on Twitch.

Yeah lately that has been my thoughts on things luckily I did this with BL3(bullet ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ dodged), as for Elden Ring I trusted From Soft to deliver a solid experience, but instead I got a meh low effort Open World game.
