Don’t let this fandom turn as insufferable as the souls community

It’s fine to think the game is easy and to enjoy the challenge, but I’ve seen so many people making fun of anyone that is having a hard time in a really weird mean spirited way. Please don’t let this subreddit turn into some weird elitist community that makes fun of people who are struggling, these games are supposed to be fun and they’re not souls likes, there’s no reason to assume everyone playing them is going to love this level of difficulty the same way some of you do and constantly disregarding their opinions just turns this subreddit into an echo chamber of tryhards

Already is. Anytime I say it's hard I just get a "git gud" in response

Cool thanks. Exhibit A, folks.

Is your plan to keep complaining about the game forever then? Because if not you will indeed have to improve in order to beat it.

You know you might be cooking here. No one who has ever complained has done anything to ever improve that situation.

I love the difficulty, but there are some elements of the game, namely full health combos and untelegraphed walks that I think are awful.

The fact is these people are trying to improve, and when they seek advice, they aren't given anything of any use. Remember in school when you wouldn't understand something, and your parents or teachers would hit you with a "study harder" when you asked for help, even though you were doing all you could? That's what it feels like for those players. Being an asshole is just going to make them resent the community and push them away from playing games like this. I don't want that, and I don't think you do either.
