TalkBack / RE: EDITORIALS: This Game Is Too Easy/Medium/Hard

« on: December 05, 2007, 08:41:12 AM »

I think you should be stuck with the difficulty you choose until the end. If you chose a level that's too easy, then shame on you for starting on easy. If you chose a level that's too hard, then go cry to mommy.

Most important of all, maybe check out a review first? For example, some people may have jumped for joy when MegaMan Zero made the MegaMan name respectable again, but then immediately regretted their puchase because of the difficulty level. I don't think one review for any of the four games in that series omitted the fact that each chapter is soul-crushingly difficult on even the normal level.

Ah, poor fools and their medium modes. The biggest mistake I ever made was starting on medium. Learning to play with your hand one position lower than you're used to is a pain in the ass. I just hope people aren't still under the impression that you should be using your pinky to hit the blue and orange frets. While I was playing through GH1 and 2, nobody I talked to ever realized that it's much easier to move your index finger between frets than your pinky.

You're stuck on Cult of Personality? That's one of the easiest songs in the last two sets (Stricken being the easiest). Actually, Raining Blood is the only really hard one. I've spent more time in practice with that song than all the others (GH2 included) combined. Stupid "mosh 1".
