I decided to finally listen to you guys and bought Hollow Knight, which turned out to be the worst mistake of my life.

first 5 minutes are really cool

hellyeah.jpg

start to wander

get lost and have to backtrack for 20 minutes

no map system with a map this big

somehow stumble onto a boss

it kills me unfairly for another 25 minutes

bite my controller and throw it at the wall as hard as I can

massive hole in drywall and controller grip is shattered

I will never listen to you retards again. Fucking horrible game.

yet another contrarian hollow knight seethe thread

frogposter has shit taste

Shocker

it's basically just a 2d version of dark souls.

get lost and have to backtrack for 20 minutes

This is where you starting being wrong, never happened to me

no map system with a map this big

Sure there is, it literally says map shop right there in the village

it kills me unfairly for another 25 minutes

Oh, so there's the main problem, you're super bad. The first boss is super easy and little girls beat it without a sweat.

But this thread was all a ruse so all is well that ends well

Imagine dying multiple times to false knight

Its a shit game anyway. People say it gets better after you unlock double jump, but to be honest, it never gets good. Just feels like a cheap Metroid indie

I hate precision twitch reflex combat platformers compared to easy braindead rollslop with build variety.

bite my controller and throw it at the wall as hard as I can

i'm on the spectrum and used to do this when i was 8 years old, grow up.

touch grass

>bite my controller and throw it at the wall as hard as I can

>massive hole in drywall and controller grip is shattered

I will never listen to you retards again.

big picrel energy emanating from your post

>bite my controller

Do frogposters really?

I decided to finally listen to you

But I never recommended you Hollow Knight

literal skill issue

I hate Shallow Knight but you're a retard. Kill yourself.

Will you be joining us for the Ruse Cruise?
The buffet opens at 4:00.

Why not, it's the second best indie game

What's the best, is it crosscode or la-mulana?

what's the best one?

Celeste.

tl;dr op hates metroidvanias

i do to unfortunately, because on the surface they're super cool, but once i play them i just can't do it for more than few hours

Not everyone is a "neet" like you are.

But it's trans

Do not answer for me, tranny

Revolution 60

it's pretty fun for being a faggot game

Granted, I'm pretty hardcore
But little girls aren't, and they still manage to beat the first boss easily

I used to love them but after playing a dozen or so they all start to feel a bit samey. Which I guess can be true for most genres, but other genres aren't such a huge time sink. That's why I don't like open-world stuff much anymore either.

kek i did it when i was 5 or so with an NES controller while playing megaman and the resulting permanent teeth marks were a constant shameful reminder of my poor behaviour.
didn't need another reminder like that until a couple years ago when i open-palm slapped a wall to accentuate my anger and the damn thing got a foot long crack all the way up it.

i should get a pic of both in the same frame and make it my phone wallpaper

Listening to a difficulty autists recommendations

kek, next you'll say you listened to an acheivement autist, a ranked-comp autist, or a trooncore autsist.

lmao i wanna see, post a pic of that.

Stupid retarded zoomie frog. Instead of playing a copy of games that came before it, just go play those original games instead - i.e. Metroid and Castlevania

videogaming is a pretty faggy hobby as a whole if you think about it

i'm with you OP, came back to it a few times and could never fully get into it
you could beat 2-3 metroid games in the amount of time it takes to get going

Yoshi's Island is pretty much the only good standard platformer ever. Anything else good is entirely experimental/abnormal with its gameplay such as Rain World or Noita. Don't bother playing platformers unless the gameplay is very obviously "unique" like those games.

it'd take a half hour to dig out the NES, it's put away because i don't have a CRT for it or my other older consoles, i emulate with a crt shader or i play emuVR

If I wanted to play old garbage with shitty graphics, I'd just.. You know what? I'd do nothing. I'd rather not even play at all.

Dark Souls 1 is the worst of the Souls games, but at least has a memorable map, good level design, and a huge amount of weapons and build variety.

Hollow Knight is just a giant labyrinth of constant dead-ends and backtracking, apes mechanics from Souls that don't fit at all, the map is 5x bigger than it should be and all environments look the same, and you have one weapon with a few charms that barely change gameplay and you can only equip a few at a time and can only change them at benches, so vast majority are worthless

why are murricans so careless with their equipment?

I'm not American, I am Indian

>get lost and have to backtrack for 20 minutes

What a retard
Did you asked your legal guardian to type out captcha for you?

aw rip :(

very based anon

Well why aren't you thinking about the spirit of the controller?

Did you asked your legal guardian to type out captcha for you?

what a weird insult

rent free

frog poster

retarded

Name more iconic duo.

Even if you never get lost and print out a giant map of the game to mark every single one of the 100+ dead ends so you never go down the same dead end twice, the gameplay is still 90%+ dead ends and backtracking

Anime and tranny

do mutts really?

wandering around and adventuring is the point.

It's mostly just a square actually

That's one area retard, and even that has a dozen dead ends
