That was kind of my logic going into that part. Not to mention, even IF the fall killed you it would be a 15 second run past a single enemy to get your echoes, so there was pretty much no risk at all to taking the dive.
These games are obtuse, it's part of the fun I discovered this naturally my first playthrough and was greatly rewarded and satisfied. Remember the Four Kings in the Abyss? How about the final boss encounter in the Ivory King? Lots of precedent for dropping down into precarious boss chambers. Savvy players would have spoken to the man in the chair pointing to a lake with a reflection of the moon in the distance and a mysterious foggyshroud directly below the ledge. How in the world is it apparent that you'd need to jump off the platform into what looks like a moonlit lake when we could assume that would kill the player in almost every circumstance? It's just that I simply don't see how anyone else can love them, at least to the extent that they do, and I've thought about this quite a bit, just trying to have an epiphany of sorts, but I just don't think it will ever happen in this case. It's not so much that I even hate everything about them. The Souls games, including Bloodborne of course, is the perfect example of "to each his own". There's and endless assortment of problems, but people just ignore them, when in any other game or series, the game would be chastised relentlessly. The Souls games I just can't put my finger on. I don't much care for that type of game, but I fully understand why people like them.
The Witcher series, for example, isn't my forte, but I fully understand why people like it. People seem to like these games, but it's more of a mystery to me than anything else. Being relegated to an aimless pixel hunt to find some obscure part of the environment so you can move forward isn't my idea of time well spent.Īs for an answer to your last question, I just don't know. It doesn't make the games more difficult, just more tedious, which makes it feel like the game is wasting your time. I can deal with a lot of things in games, but giving the player nearly nothing, and in some cases, especially in these games, absolutely nothing to go on, is idiotic. This is the primary reason I can't get into the Souls games, including Bloodborne. The answer to your second question is yes.yes it is too frustrating to hit dead ends.
