False dichotomy, you can have both and not having one doesn't mean you'll do the other.
You're making the classic mistake of thinking that "thinking for yourself" will necessarily lead to something good, even though it might lead you to something retarded, which is why conventions exist. This is how intellectuals sniff their own farts until they decide that the universe started when nothing exploded into everything, how sociologists decided that math is racist, and how you sniffed your own sharts until you decided that the reason your RPGs aren't better is because they don't get enough inspiration from ARMA.
Nice try, dolt jr. And RPGs could definitely draw a lot of inspiration from ARMA combat, as unlike most RPG combat, it's deep, complex, and fun.
"as I have said elsewhere". someone pointed out to me that people on this site are already started to post like me, didn't see it until here.Most people are horrifically stupid, as I've said elsewhere. And as I've also said, pinning officious language to your beliefs does not make them objective. It does make you look like a moron with a fetishistic appreciation of language.This is a relative matter. And your beliefs are not obvious to anybody but yourself. Look at the state of this thread.
Nope, it's really not. Big bosses in games are patently juvenile and moronic. If you assume that roughly half the population has double digit IQ, that explains the breakdown of this thread.
And as I have said elsewhere, bosses are juvenile and moronic.
When I refer to existing posts I'm referring people to prior elaborations to help understand my line of thinking. But you haven't expressed any previous thoughts that lead into where you're going. Do you believe that having said something before makes the thought more powerful?
Actually that was a play on words, but clearly, much like the rest of this thread, it went over your head.
This is absurd.
It also encapsulates the ability to distinguish simple and self-obvious truths.
In the land of the idiotic, the absurd is king.
You say, as you ignore most of the text you are quoting.You haven't explained why either thing is good or bad. And the "bosses" are not 90% of the latter games unless you are absolutely abysmal at them, probably due to a failure to appreciate what you're meant to be doing. If you consider options the game explicitly gives you "cheating" then you're just being obstinate, if not outright petulant.They went from bosses being a puzzle-like change of pace thing that you had to solve (Demon Souls), to combat change of pace thing that were challenging to defeat compared to regular mobs (Dark Souls) to being 90% of the game by Dark Souls 3/Elden Ring/Sekiro.
Sure I did. You are just choosing to ignore my detailed and excellent, dare I say, explanations.
Cause you already said all of this 20 times, and I refuted it soundly 19 times ago.
I think it's fairly obvious that you are a moderately functional autistic.
All I hear is a lot of whining about refusing to accept a fairly obvious statement, along the lines of the sky being blue.
Moderately functional autistic what?
Could you explain what "cheating" is? Don't give examples. Explain the difference between cheating and not cheating.Please, do tell me about these cheating mechanics. Give me some examples.If you don't understand the difference between actual combat mechanics and cheating mechanics, you are beyond help, dawg. Might as well start playing Sims and transition.
Literally every single way in which most people beat Elden Ring: summoning NPCs/players to help fight bosses, using cheese strategies like bleeding enchantments on weapons, stupid weapon arts, etc.
Are you trying to tire me out with your silly arguments? 2 + 2 = 4. Can you explain what 2 is? Ehh, no.
