A 250 megaton warhead should be enough to hunt the moon I think.

@nerthos i avoided him for a while during my first playthrough
Saturday, 31-May-14 11:46:10 UTC from web-

@bakasenpai I don't play Resident Evil. I'm an enemy of games with restrictive mechanics for artificial difficulty.
Saturday, 31-May-14 13:34:52 UTC from web-
@nerthos you mean dark souls?
Saturday, 31-May-14 14:29:29 UTC from web-
@bakasenpai Dark Souls has some artificial difficulty parts and they're awful, yeah, but it also has a lot of good parts. RE has that whole "Can't shoot while moving" which is absolutely stupid since even a guy without training can do that.
Saturday, 31-May-14 15:17:42 UTC from web-
@nerthos I actually think Dark Souls handles difficulty really well. This guy does a very eloquent job of explaining it http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_oYLhAZvjvU

@northernnarwhal The artificial difficulty has nothing to do with enemies, but rather with holes and other crap like that. And blighttown.
Saturday, 31-May-14 15:21:38 UTC from web-
@nerthos Maybe the lag isn't as bad in the ps3 version but I didn't have too much trouble in Blighttown. Also the enemies are really easy to parry.
Saturday, 31-May-14 15:22:48 UTC from web-
@northernnarwhal The enemies weren't an actual issue. The whole "move one milimeter and whoops, you're dead at the bottom even though you hit three platforms that should have stopped your fall" was the issue. No lag here.

@northernnarwhal Tomb of the giants was awful without a source of light. I cheated a bit and used that lava pyromancy to chart a path since it sticks to the ground.

@northernnarwhal Oh yeah that's true. You have to remember the timing of each attack and trigger for the ground falling, whilst you should be able to react in some way instead of just coming back to a miraculously rebuilt room that breaks in the exact same way every time for that fight to be immersive.
Saturday, 31-May-14 15:32:27 UTC from web-
@nerthos Plus, you're quite literally just dropped into some random arena with no idea what the hell you're supposed to do while getting mangoes slapped by a giant tree.
Saturday, 31-May-14 15:35:00 UTC from web-
@northernnarwhal Yep. It wasn't the most anti-climatic of fights though due to the room ambient.
Saturday, 31-May-14 15:35:52 UTC from web -
@northernnarwhal Also the slide :D
Saturday, 31-May-14 15:35:59 UTC from web-
@nerthos That was fun, I would always break all the branches on the way down >=) In my first time in Tomb of the Giants I would constantly switch between a skull lantern and my regular shield because those giant skeletons would totally own me if I didn't have any defenses.

@nerthos well if you were fighting slow moving not-zombies where you're supposed to shoot their heads you would probably stand and aim. Trying to hit someones melon with a handgun while moving would be pretty difficult.
Saturday, 31-May-14 15:23:50 UTC from web-
@bakasenpai Well then the game should give you that option and not make it mandatory. Also, say you need to run away from a quickening group of them and want to get in a few potshots, you wouldn't be able to. To be fair they did implement this into RE6 but that game was boring cookie cutter action with no atmosphere whatsoever. However, I do still like RE4, that game was great.
Saturday, 31-May-14 15:28:42 UTC from web-
@northernnarwhal i was about to say they did that in RE6 and the game was crap and would have played a lot better with the old mechanics.
Saturday, 31-May-14 15:34:21 UTC from web-
@bakasenpai The thing is that RE works as a survival horror game with atmosphere and tension. When they tried to make it into an action game it became an awkward third person left for dead.
Saturday, 31-May-14 15:36:15 UTC from web-
@northernnarwhal i could agree with that

@bakasenpai Well, hipfiring/firing while running obviously won't be pin-point accurate, the point was never to be a fast moving sniper.
