Music Banter - What Game Are You Playing Right Now?

Honestly I just want to be able to feel like I lost because I lost and not because I just don't know what the **** I'm doing. Cause I do not know what the **** I'm doing. I'd just like to know how to actually play the game with moderate intelligence basically, cause it looks like the absolute embodiment of a blast if you know what's actually going on.

I have several PS1 games standing around that I've never really gotten that far in. I tried my hand on the two above and... holy crap, this is a big reminder that games used to be way harder than they tend to be these days. I'd say both of these games qualify as 'infuriating'. Screw Dark Souls. In ODT, saves are far apart and single use, despite the game having a sort of semi open hub structure. It's bull**** and I really don't feel sure that I'll ever get anywhere in this game. It will get another chance tomorrow or something. I've already given up on Ronin Blade after just 1 hour with it. That game is impossible. At least impossible without monumental patience.

Dark Souls is harder, don't kid yourself.

But after watching a bunch of Day9's new StarCraft Remastered videos, where he basically lays down how to begin playing even semi-seriously in minute detail like an SC Mister Rogers, I'm compelled to try again to not suck at SC1. All past attempts at not sucking at any StarCraft game have met with abysmal failure, but this time I'm gonna sit my ass down in a game with no opponents and just **** around with building bases and build orders like a complete pleb until I'm the next Jaedong. Heh. Dong.

Thx, Day9. You're my ****ing spirit animal and you make me want to crush my enemies beneath my jackboot.

You know he has like a 2 hour video outlining his entire starcraft career. I think youd like it.

I don't know about that. Dark Souls has a very fair and forgiving save and checkpoint system, plus reliable game mechanics that don't get you killed in all sorts of stupid ways. In just one hour of ODT, you are going to stumble off cliffs and get shot in the back multiple times due to how touchy and clunky the movement controls are.

Dark Souls is hard, but far from the most frustrating game I've ever played. Even Dark Souls 2 is way more irritating than DS1.

Hardest game I own: Panzer Front. Makes Dark Souls look like a walk in the park. Of course I suck at Panzer Front.

Alright I guess I can understand why people like League of Legends. The gameplay is slightly tedious, but it's still satisfying and you can jump in and not feel like the most incompetent person on earth. Assuming the charm doesn't wear off I can see dicking around casually until I somehow find that I no longer suck. The infinite amount of champions to try out doesn't hurt either.
