be pretty cool if we could fairly easy add an option for people in a wheelchair to get them walking. Clearly you'd rather they didn't.

Great so you missed the point entirely, just like most people miss the point of games with one difficulty setting.

Silksong is a game, bright moving colors on a screen, meant to amuse and entertain.

You're not an elite mountaineer for pressing buttons faster than a disabled person

Crying about difficulty in video games isn't going to stop. There are thousands of video games that are not difficult. Play those.

You're right, difference being that what you're saying is more akin (following the analogy) to putting wheelchair ramps on a mountain.

Silksong is the mountain, git gud and climb it or shut the fuck up.

Like immigrants! Or black people! Or trans people!

I miss the days when 4chan acted as the fucking quarantine for most of the nazi bullshit on the internet.

And the idea that every game should be for everyone is the reason why Elden Ring is... kind of a bad game.

Great open world, beautiful scenery... bad boss design, which yes — that is the game.

Like, think about this in the real world setting. Think about how this hyopthetical would play out, person becomes disabled and has to sit in a wheelchair. Everyone agrees 'it's not fair that they can't walk, no one should walk because this person can't'. And then everyone sits in a wheelchair despite being perfectly abled.

Does that make sense to you? Because it doesn't to me, I'm sorry if there are people who can't beat these games — but damn, at some point you have to recognize life isn't fair and just enjoy the shit you do enjoy. If being good at a video game isn't important to you, ok that's your prerogative. Do not play the hard video game. But this constant whining about difficulty settings and nerfs is just obnoxious.

Everyone heard Hornet say git gud. If you say you didn't, you either didn't play HK or you're a liar.

Silksong is the git gud game. It is the Bloodborne 2 we never got.

Edit: also it isn't that hard.

I'm surprised to see a comment on a post from so long ago but yes, it was an incredibly blatant display.

I would argue that Blasphemous wouldn't exist without Hollow Knight, and HK is still the better Metroidvania.

Dead Cells is not a Metroidvania game. It is a roguelite.

Edit: roguelite, not roguelike.

Because I do not want Microsoft to have access to all my documents.

That's not how cloud save works! ...

You need to explain why you think the second statement refutes the first.

It's the latter, counter point; the tool never would have existed without the unethical scraping.
