anyone else have trouble jumping ?

[platinumfingers]

near the end and ive tried to get the next to last or else i missed one saintly quintessance and ive missed the jump like 25 times, im using an x box controller and have had trouble with all the jumps. any tips ? its super frusterating.

Strange, never had any problem with jumps, I actually like how it is in this game left stick (L3) to run and x to jump. After you jump if you move the stick you will roll or if you don't move the stick you will stop after landing, very precise control
Using a ps4 controller.

yes. Just got this trash game and i was stuck trying to jump across the tutorial area for like 4 minutes. I got across, but I am pretty sure i got lucky with a roll and still have no idea how to jump. This game is bafflingly dumb

i tried another 20 or so times today its the 17th quintessence in bramis castle , so now my question is im thinking about skipping it , does the new game 0 reset the quintessenses ? could i get the 17th in the first slot of a new game or does it reset them? thinking about skipping it.

skip it and get the rest to max ur sanginarix in another playthru
The worst jump is in revelation depths, the one where you gotta jump into the abyss onto a random platform thats swinging. just toss away 20 lives to that stoopid jump. for a throwable nobody uses. prolly died more there than at all the bosses combined.

You don't need to jump to the hanging platform you can just roll or drop directly to the item. I didn't really find any of the jumps in this game difficult.

should jumping in a video game be hard? should it be frustrating when your character cant leap in a very specific direction?
No
This game seems to think the opposite though.
controls should empower the player, soulslikes just LOVE making controls that fight the player more than the mobs do.
You can cheese this entire game with a crossbow. if i found cheating morally fulfilling i'd play that way. i don't need you telling me to play like a souless streamer whos time is little more than your entertainment.

It's not hard or frustrating, it's easy. I made the jump you're talking about first try.

[ReflexShift]

Yeah I'm not having difficulty jumping either. Sometimes I don't push the run button correctly before jumping and this causes me to fall off ledges sometimes though.

[Mankybus]

I sometimes screw up a jump, but I usually get it in the next one or two tries. You definitely have to jump on the very edge of a ledge, it works fine when you internalize it but it is very punishing if you keep jumping even a micro-second too late. I wouldn't be opposed to the devs make the jump better, but it's otherwise mostly fine apart from those rare tough jumps.

Do you have frame generation enabled? That ♥♥♥♥ creates considerable input lag for the controller!
