Calling time... On playing games on hard.

[duncanthetall]

I play games more for stories these dyas. Turning enemies into super accurate bullet sponges doesn't need increase my enjoyment in the slightest

Let's be honest, games like uncharted on crushing is not about best strategy. Most of the game mechanics become useless and you end up doing some wack shyt to get through the area. You literally have to find the flaws of the enemy ai and exploit it instead of playing the game how it's meant to be played.

Nah snowman. You just become something more then a mere mortal.

You become





An Elite

Gaming to me is leisure time spent having fun. I'm not trying to curse at my TV and throw controllers out of frustration as a hobby. I think difficulty should only be an issue with games that promote the experience such as dark souls, bloodborne, or ni-oh. A game like Uncharted is more about action and enjoying the story. Not trying to prove you can beat some insane nearly impossible difficulty. Even a game like The Last of Us to me doesn't have to be played on grounded mode. Say what you want about having too much ammo or just blowing through the game, but that's not really what that game was about. The game is amazing on any difficulty because it was the characters and story that resonated with people the most beyond the gameplay itself.

not true....people choose to do that cause it makes it easier, but you dont have to do that...you can play the game how it's meant to be played and beat it, it's just harder/takes more time...which ever way people choose is cool cause they only play for their own enjoyment....the same goes for difficulty....

i just quoted that person cause he tried to downplay/belittle beating a game on a harder difficulty, while propping up pvp....like the things he used to downplay playing on harder difficulties doesnt go on in pvp...hell, i'm willing to say there is more cheesing/exploiting in pvp than pve, but 'pvp is the real challenge'...lol such a good laugh that provides...

I think pvp is the real challenge because your going against other players and relying on skills. Games on the hardest difficulty usually have super human AI with pin point accuracy and shyt. Fighting games on the hardest difficulty just flat out read your button inputs and counters everytime.

I usually play my games on hard, I feel like that's the best way to play. Those insane modes, outside of hack and slash games, are just a headache to me.

that's where i disagree....just cause you playing another person doesnt mean it comes down to 'skills'....skills have nothing to do with what pvp usually boils down to....which is: whatever player is using the best gear/setups, using exploits, easiest way to get kills, and/or knows the map better, tends to win....now, if everything is the same for everyone, then skills can be used as a determining factor, but that's rarely the case....

anyway, i wasnt trying to put down pvp, i play it and find it fun....i just disagree with that poster trying to take some elitist stance by bigging up pvp and putting down playing harder difficulties...and was showing him that the same things he said about pve, can be used against pvp....

I'm starting to play all my games on easy to clear my backlog since I don't have enough time to fukk around with video games on hard like I use too.

I feel this sense of guilt I can't even articulate it, this sense of cheating if I don't play the game on hard, even normal is making me feel a certain way.
I could never do easy just wouldn't feel right.

Man, I remember playing DmC3 on dante must die mode. shyt was fukking epic. That last boss fight with Vergil was crazy and evil but when I beat him, I was beyond hyped cause I knew I did something amazing.

DmC3 had some of the best difficulty scaling out there. when you put them hours in you just blow thru the easier levels like then you know you have to step up

but nothing was better than doing stylish ass combos while fukking up the computer on the harder levels. Truly one of my favorite gaming experiences. I really wish they had a next gen equivalent.​

Any Sega game was basically hard mode


For some reason I remember beating Aladdin though

 

[James Gordon]

I was bout to ask why this isnt in jbo


I learned long ago to play on eazy or medium if I wanna enjoy myself

Cause the harder the mode the more the ai gon cheat

I likes idea.... my time plus backlog is bananas.
But I at least need them normal mode trophies on first playthru

Last game I played on hard was infamous cause that shyt was easy


This new kingdom hearts I might play on hard cause it isn't that bad either


But yeah shooters on hard fukk that, the AI don't even be doing no clever shyt or increase they just aim better notice you faster and have extra damage


Rinse repeat
