Guy, Dark Souls and Demon Souls are considered the "Souls" series despite Demon Souls being an entirely different series. So yeah, it is pedantry. Name it whatever you like, people know what I am talking about when saying "souls", and that it includes Bloodborne and Elden Ring. Because the gameplay loop is identical.

I won't be replying to you anymore. I don't like arguing with people that think like you do

Work from home makes it even better than listening to coworkers trying to chat you up when you are working. You can have "human contact" with them on optional outings with the team. A coworker isn't a friend, it's a colleague. They won't stand up for you when you get treated unfairly at work, they won't risk their job to save yours. So unless your "human contact" includes inappropriate stuff, I don't see any benefit to it over staying home with the family you love, cuddling pets and skipping a long daily commute.

Buddy, it's a souls game through and through. You can be pedantic about it, but it's the same thing we have had since Demon Souls.

Nah. You just balance the encounter instead of going for bullshit

Okay, the boss now kills you in one hit and you need 30 perfect frame inputs to be able to dodge one combo.

Difficulty needs to take into account the playability of the game. There is difficulty, and there is plain bullshit. Sadly, the Souls series went on and on trying to "make it harder" in fear of people getting bored or something. In reality they ended up with a Malenia style bosses - who literally breaks established series-long rules.

Or just use seamless coop and don't worry about it too much. It's funny when a modder can do a better job than an entire gaming company.

Nah, because then the question becomes "what if all software is open source". It's a mad man's dream, nothing more. No publisher would agree to it.

And then the developer goes out of business or gets bought by 15 other companies, with the rights to the game being so muddy it's not even funny anymore.

It's unfeasible. Not one serious publisher will let their game be open source for fear of reverse engineering, copycat games, using engines that a company has worked on for years, etc.

This is the type of shit you want to see, not the public.

The thread is about Muslims practicing religion. He didn't have to say it, you can infer it from context.

If you go level range you get tryhards that modify everything in their inventory, have 300 more hours at the game PvPing than you, etc. That's why 3's wall of Lothric was unplayable in coop - you got invaded by people in havels and meta PvP weapons, with just enough stats to be able to kill new guys.

That's why soul memory existed, it was just a flawed system. If it only decided on invasions, going by the highest memory in your party, it'd be fine. Sadly it also messed around with summoning your friends, which is a huge no-no.
