WAS going to buy this game until...

[Ziack]

I saw a review saying there is an "Easy mode". How tf do you put an easy mode in a souls game? and why? So sick of this generation of "Gamers"

Edit: I guess it's time I edit this, as people don't read through entire threads for the updated information, and this thread is never dying it seems... lol

After learning that you were stuck on a one way trip for the difficulty you chose, I decided this was good enough to give the game a try, because I like these types of games. The whole point behind what I said, is to convey that I feel a sense of accomplishment with these types of games, but several people have seen fit to insult and down right be nasty, even suggesting mental problems, when they truly know nothing about me at all, it's quite sad.

Fast forward to now, and they have released a patch that nearly no one is happy with from what I can see. They have nerfed bosses in both normal and easy, which makes literally no sense.

My wife plays this game too, and struggled a lot with the first two bosses, yet because of the games very forgiving "Catch up" mechanics, she was able to gain more levels and master, and eventually win. It's so forgiving, that she is mastery 12 right now, and I am mastery 9, while I have just beaten viper, and she is still grinding the second version of the second boss.
Point is, the game rewards you for continuing to try, and when you succeed, you're supposed to finally feel good, but now, this is cheapened by them just making bosses easier, even for us normal players.

I beat Viper on the second try, but I don't know how nerfed he is, because I can't find any information on this, and I guess I'll never know, I am just left unsatisfied, wishing I played sooner, my bad?

There is a 'normal' mode and an 'easy' mode (popup comes after dying an X amount of times), let the noobs who want to play it have fun - doesn't effect what you do at all

I have played and beaten about half the soulsbourne games. It's not a badge of honor, get over yourself. Some people just want to experience these games without the grind/frustration. It effects you in no way

Yeah I've beaten them all. This isn't a souls like then. People should be happy with just calling it an Action Adventure game or something, so then the difficulty slider makes more sense. Souls Likes shouldn't have a difficulty option, that's the reason they have that label, it's hard.

Grind what? Levels? How unskilled are people...? Frustration? How do you feel achievement without having the feeling of overcoming something?
People just want to 1 shot everything with no challenge? What's the point then?

I was gonna buy it too, then I saw it had Denuvo and decided that was not going to happen.

Each to their own I suppose. I don't personally understand what that changes, but you do you good sir.

[Retsubty]

Soulslike Youtubers seem to think it is peak.

Other random reviewers are clearly getting filtered. I saw one that said the systems are too compllicated... it's like really? Basic loot system and skill tree is too complicated?

Wrong people reviewing these games man.
