Have y'all played Sundered? It's a metroidvania game released in 2017 that has a reputation for being very difficult. I never beat the final boss, even on Easy Difficulty.
It does some hanky shit that artificially makes it harder like:
- enemies that teleport the moment they are off screen
- enemies that can shoot at you from off screen but you can't shoot back
- random alarm / alerts that inundate you with enemies
- locking in an area during certain alarm / alerts so you can't just run away
- infinitely repopulating enemies so an area is never "clear"
- boss encounter arenas that zoom way out so you can barely see your character
However, when you die, you keep your upgrades and your money. The only permanent consequence is dumping you back in the middle of the map and a roguelike shuffling of the other rooms. It doesn't even lock you out of any shortcuts you've already found.
Anyway, this mug started the game on the hardest difficulty and hated it for being too hard.
I can get that.
What did he do?
Perhaps try Normal difficulty to learn for to play the game first?
Maybe read some forum posts about the best builds so he knows what to unlock first?
Nah.
Leave a negative review and uninstall.
And he keeps complaining in the discussion thread. Talking about other hard games he picked up easily and mastered.
Okay.
But this is not those games and you have to learn how to play this game to play this game.
A negative review.
The gaul.
Who does that?
This mf'er that's who.
What is the mindset? What is the thinking?
"I immediately jumped into the hardest difficulty and it was too hard and not fun so therefore the game is terrible 5 / 10, maybe lower."
But why?
Didn't even try a lower difficulty.
