they already nerfed enemies and bosses

[jab.]

good on the devs for responding to community feedback but....like why? people want more souls games or know what they are playing and then get upset and so the devs doing their part, nerf ♥♥♥♥ already. this isn't even a "get good" post but seriously if you can't beat it would it hurt to look something up or ask around for tips instead of complaining so that the game becomes less fun for people who seek a greater challenge or to figure out themselves?

i hope the full release reverts back to the first night difficulty.

they did that 2 days ago, games is a joke now

you know what funny ? i watched 5 random streams on twitch and 3 of them didn't ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ know how to use THE DAMN HEALING DEW, funniest thing is one of them have "soulsgame" tag on their channel, ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ hilarious.

if game developer keep catering to these people the game will be a baby walk

Ten nerds will not make the game sales.

The fact that some people equate difficulty with quality will continue to astound me. it is the bloody tutorial area it should be easy.

[Laughing kookaburra]

this guy i'm watching doesn't know how to lock on
keep listening to these people and make the game for babies

I would like to say the following things that a souls-dev should think about:

Are games from "FromSoftware" easy? Probably not for the average player.
Are these games pretty much the most popular on the market? I think so.
Are soulslike-gamers looking for a challenge? Oh yeah

Anyone who says these games should be easy should ask themselves why so many games are sold from "FromSoftware"

Of course, this is just my own insignificant opinion...

Nice list, I meant the most famous soulslike, my fault

By the way, 2022 is Elden Ring at the second place

The game ain't hard, but if you're a gamer who's not familiar with Souls genre, just played the famous few, you will be blasted with janky recover animation constantly. The controls isn't top notch but it's also not AAA quality game so...

[Demonite]

It's fine if they nerf damage and health values a bit, but I hope they don't do anything drastic like making hitboxes smaller (remember Radahn?) or removing enemies from areas so you have to fight less at once or something. That'd definitely make the game too easy.

And I also agree that Souls-likes should be expected to be difficult. If you don't like challenges, play something else, or watch a playthrough on YouTube if you really care about the story/lore. Insisting on making the games easier just ruins the fun for people who do enjoy a challenge.

[Sleazy_Fbryzy]

Yeah I buy souls and soulslikes for the challenges they offer if the challenge is taken away spurred on by individuals who can't take a step back and LEARN the game then I'm just wasting time and money purchasing something for the challenge

Yeah but by any standards the demo just wasn't that difficult in the first place before any nerfs hit. It was sufficiently challenging for a first look as it should be but it wasn't even close to being hard enough that things actually needed to be nerfed

[Carnage]

Simply making souls-like games harder each year is not a quality improvement. The first boss (Lancer) in this game is harder than anything I've seen in the first Dark Souls. Some of us do like souls-like, but also prefer consensual sex. I just hope they will nerf it further.

[Laughing kookaburra]

the first version of the demo wasn't even hard, people just didn't take their time to get used to the new game mechanics and control, they go to the forum crying instead, i even beat Lore with a full VIT shield DB meme build on the pre-nerf demo, now he's just pathetic and miss a lot of his attacks, i even beat him weaponless post-nerf.

[Carnage]

I don't think that the goal of the first boss in the game is to give you the ultimate challenge so that no one except from sweatiest sweats will be able to beat, even if it is technically the last boss in the demo (aside from the boss mode).

[Laughing kookaburra]

why you think Lore is the ultimate challenge is beyond me, that was the only fun fight in the demo because everything else just die after 3 or 4 attacks now he's just another mob with longer HP bar
