Please lower the difficult

[nun]

Why the hell do I need to die 100 times in the first boss?
This game is beautiful, even playable with a femboy, but the difficulty level is an atrocity for casual players, please lower it.
If the gamepass had a review I would give negative.

Gaming skills = push buttons good

Correct. Meaning anyone who can't even do that but cries about it being hard can and will be mocked, unless they ask for legit advice c:

You mean being tormented and depressed, right? To be dominated and humiliated really hard, yes? To feel anything at all again, yes? Because that's what happens in these games where developers vent their frustration about not getting sex anymore.

You need to get good at either parrying or avoiding attacks through positioning. Blocking non-red attacks also works, although not as good.

Trying to dodge-roll your way out of problems will get you killed in this game.

I dunno man, that's weirdly specific. Maybe your projection is a cry for help? 😂

I beat the first boss after a couple of tries and I don't even consider myself good at these games.

This is a video game, if you don't like the challenge presented you are free to either cheat or play something else.

This makes me sad, man. You're missing out on a great game and a whole genre of great games. They are supposed to be challenging. But not unfair. So you learn and smash you head against a wall 50 times but then it clicks, you win against that boss you were having trouble with and it's awesome. I don't wanna say git gud... but...

Some people do not have the reflexes for these types of games,

Here is a false assumption people make because of a stupid dev comment from souls. The single difficulty is so everyone has the same experience.

But do you honestly believe everyone has the same level of reflexes, timing and innate ability , no of course not. So those blessed with absurdly good reflexes just blow through these games and say, they are plenty easy, and those who arent, say its impossible and its neither believes the other.

Ive tried these games, unless they have easy mode, ie Jedi Fallen Order, Steelrising, I just cant play them.

This is hard in parts, but overall (regarding difficulty) feels like Dark Souls: Kindergarten Edition. I'm afraid this is a classic case of skill issue.

The Souls games have got harder with each game, this is no exception. There were ways to play all the DS and Elden ring games that made it easier, but LOP takes a lot of its combat ideas from Sekiro, which means if you don't learn to parry you won't beat the game.

I've watched some of the best souls players on Twitch and they have struggling with some of the bosses. This game is hard, and I would advice anyone who doesn't have lightning reflexes or the time to learn, practice and memories the bosses move-sets should avoid LOP.

It's a great game, but I can't see most people getting anywhere near finishing it, including myself.

You can beat this game without parrying as your primary tool, I've done most of the game dodging and only parrying in moments of low stamina and do or die moments.

Also dark souls hasn't gotten harder with each game as dark souls 2 is probably the hardest of the three, and yes even harder than elden ring.

Unless they have a broken thumb you press it like any other button.

What reflexes are needed to hit a button?

You assume everyone should think like you?

No one ever assumed to have the same skill or reflexes but you can learn those overtime something you can't wrap your head around with poor analogies since this is a video game

Just say you can't stop using poor examples of games that are souls like or just plain aren't seriously this coping is sad.

FYI, you literally need reflexes to hit a button. You need to register the thing on the screen, decide what to do, then execute your decision.

Now If you're asking how fast and you understand it takes reflexes, well that depends on the situation.

That poster is a freeping idiot, I blocked them ages ago.

Saying absolutely inane things like this, reflexes arent needed for a game that is literally all about reflexes of dodging and parrying
