First of all, I want to say that it’s wonderful to see all of you here, and your critical support of the nation I proudly call home. But more and more recently, especially reading through Chinese internet too, there has been a sense of overconfidence and overglorification of China. It is honestly a little worrying at times for me, because as much as I love my homeland and is proud of what we are doing, I know full and well that we are still a long way to go. I see this sentiment of China being the glorious land far away as a bastion and utopia against Western Imperialism and while there’s a lot of truth behind that sentiment, and I definitely understand why one not living in China would choose to believe this (I live in the US now and I understand your pain, fellow US comrades). I just want to remind everyone to exercise dialectal materialism on this subject and try to look at China in a less idealised way. We cannot grow to be better without recognising our mistakes. Anyways that is my little message to you all. Have a nice day!
Since when has the storytelling in FromSoft been good? I mean, the lore is usual really good and all, but I have never seen the resources well done in this issues. I mean, until Sekiro, FromSoft hasn’t made a really acceptable controller mapping, and yeah, bosses seem a little bullshit, but they are more Sekiro than DS if anything, while also have a lot more of ground to grind up to beat them up.
Gotta say, I find my standard to be Zelda64 in therms of environment and combat control to be a good game, even if today those N64 games are stiffy and without a second stick to control the camera beyond Z-target system, but it works way better than what FromSoft has been doing for a Dungeon Crawler. Have you played those Zeldas? Can you imagine playing them successfully with a control simmilar to DS-like series or a Classic Monster Hunter?
Yep, which is my point that people cope themselves into thinking Fromsoft can do no wrong when they actually do a lot of wrongs and they’re right out in the open, people just refuse to acknowledge them.
I mean, I recognize the first, but maybe because I am an spoiled Zelda enjoyer/conneseur snob, and oh boy it’s hard to get back to 3D Third Person semi-platformer Dungeon Crawlers once you have know what intuitive gameplay is. And trust me that FromSoft has take a lot from Ocarina of Time at 50/50 as from Monster Hunter… With Berserk a e s t h e t i c 。
