Psycho Mantis wasn't hard at all!

Shao Khan was a prat in Mk3 and somehow in MK9 they made him even more of a cheese monger!

I got MGS before it was stateside. I couldn't wait to get it so I had it imported. Of course, everything was in Japanese then so the whole game was quite difficult first run through b/c I had no idea what they were saying...especially Psycho Mantis, LOL.

I can beat these bosses. I have beat these bosses. And yet...I HATE facing Seth in SFIV.

The lock on and intense and in depth one on one combat was always something I've been a fan of. Ocarina of time definitely deserves credit there as well which is also one of those games that may have inspired souls. Souls has done an amazing job at making many games better telling the world that difficult games are still great and loved.

Still have my PS3 copy sealed 🐸

thorstein566d ago (Edited 566d ago )

I still have my PS3 copy, but I played that game for over 100 hours.

italiangamer566d ago (Edited 566d ago )

My copy was a gift for a religious occurrence, back in 2011.
Never opened it because I already knew the Souls games are not for me but it's always nice to have it in the collection.

Demon souls and the remake will be forever etched in my mind so many playthroughs and a proper gaming experience

Why Soulsborne Games Are So Popular Despite Being So Difficult

Soulsborne games are infamously difficult. But why has that difficulty been the secret sauce to success for many of these titles in the genre?

GamesAsAService852d ago

Rewarded effort feels good.

Starting out bad at something and getting better with practice makes accomplishments meaningful.

Getting through these games feels like a journey of self improvement, lol.

You only have yourself to blame if things go poorly, but in a similar way overcoming challenge is similarly a function of your own growth.

I think because the games are fair. Gamers can tell that it’s due to their own abilities and not some BS.

I've always loved the sense of adventure and wonder in these games. There's no hand holding, there are surprises and traps everywhere and you have to figure out what some items do. Beating a heide knight was like an accomplishment for me the first time and it felt good to earn that sword he dropped. I've spent hundreds of hours in souls games ever since Kings Field on PS1. The lore is incredible and it makes you think about the history of the world you're in. I can't wait for Shadow of the Erdtree.

SyntheticForm852d ago

It's the recipe of fair difficulty, presentation, boss battles and lore that attract me to these games. The From Souls games have always had a nebulous quality to them that I find fascinating. Demystifying them is a big part of the fun.

OhReginald852d ago

I think its the atmosphere and gameplay. Each of these games unique ways to play and unique settings/atmospheres that are in a league of its own.
