  • I appreciate 343 including 4 a lot honestly. From the COD quicktime events and the stereotypical Marvel villain intro, to every other fight being a DMR shootout with the shield bots, it's the Force Awakens of Halo: all the iconography, none of the substance. If it wasn't included I would have wondered about 343 Halo and why it has a controversial rep. Being able to jump straight in after playing the rest of Halo blind was a great way to see it for myself lol.

  • In fairness, lots of Protestant churches have very plain furnishings as a direct reaction to this kind of opulence. Personally I'm torn. Cathedrals are beautiful to visit, but I don't think I could ever actually attend somewhere that imposing without being constantly distracted by it. Now some Evangelicals have gone full-circle with megachurches that are even worse...

  • If anything, media made for a malleable audience with low critical-thinking skills should be held to a higher standard, not lower. I still remember how much I loved The Hobbit as a child. Even at the age kids don't remember stuff, you still set the groundwork for the rest of their lives. The argument insults kids and betrays the speaker's low opinion of them.

    It's a shame discourse is still stuck where it was when SWSH came out. I hope the fandom can move forward some day and accept that a billion-dollar franchise isn't immune from critique.

  • Fair enough. There's always the two-hour grace period for refunds. The first "real" level after the tutorial eases you in pretty well, so if the gameplay doesn't click there I'd take it as a sign. It's a unique game that punishes hard for mistakes, so it won't click with everybody.

  • There's a story/cinematic difficulty, but I haven't tested it out. The standard difficulty is a challenge, but in my experience it felt fair. I've never played a Soulslike so I don't have a point of comparison on that front lol.
