You pompous prick. Dark Souls is hard as hell! The game throws you into impossible situations with no help. Not everyone has the time to "git gud." Some of us have lives outside of gaming.
Oh, I see. You’re one of those "casual gamers." Maybe you should stick to Candy Crush. Real gamers embrace the challenge and improve. Dark Souls teaches perseverance, something you clearly lack.
Not everyone needs a game to be a second job. Some of us play games to relax. Dark Souls is just a glorified torture simulator. Games should be fun, not an exercise in masochism.
Fun? Fun is overrated. Satisfaction comes from overcoming adversity. If you can't handle a little challenge, maybe gaming isn't for you. Go watch a movie if you want to relax.
You’re insufferable. Games like Dark Souls cater to elitists like you who think suffering equals enjoyment. Some of us play games for the story, the art, and the creativity—not just to beat our heads against a wall.
And that’s where you're wrong. The beauty of Dark Souls is in its difficulty. It’s a journey of growth and triumph. If you can't appreciate that, then you’re missing out on what makes gaming truly special.
Well, enjoy your lonely, frustrating journey. I’ll be over here having actual fun. And FYI, I beat Dark Souls. It was hard. Period.
Touché. Maybe there’s hope for you yet. But until you see the light, I’ll keep enjoying my masochistic pleasures. Happy gaming!
