the chief irony of this game is turtles are supposed to be good at swimming underwater.

Well. But the way the TMNT’s legs poke out their shells before they get mutated heavily implies they’re actually Teenage Mutant Ninja Tortoises. I think the mistake comes from that their crew was named by a rat who only ever read about ninjutsu. What the fuck does master splinter know about identifying the difference between a turtle and a tortoise?

When it’s so difficult that the developers can’t get it right, that’s how you know it’s the hardest.

IMHO Elden Ring isn’t the most difficult fromsoft game.

That honor goes to Sekiro.

I 100% agree. Sekiro is my favorite of them all.

Elden Ring may in fact be the easiest From game tbh.

Coming from ER to DS3 I think DS3 is much easier. I didn’t put much thought into my build and it was a breeze. I beat many bosses first try.

Much of the difficulty in ER comes from the often hard to telegraph attacks.

You might be inclined to say that if you don’t really know much of the games From has made.

The Adventures of Cookie and Cream on PS2 was a very easy game by comparison.

Lol, okay fair, but I think it’s pretty common to be referring to the “soulslike” genre when you say a From game.

Might be worth clarifying Demon’s Souls and onward, some of us are old enough to have played Armored Core.

Armored Core series, but those have always had a way to cheese through the campaign, almost universally.

Not sure why you were downvoted. I found Demon Souls was frustrating more than difficult but to each their own.

Elden Ring isn’t difficult, it’s tedious and repetitive. I really didn’t like it

Nah Sekiro is great. Sometimes I just pull it up and play it a couple of days because it’s so satisfying. I think Sword Saint Isshin is supposed to be the hardest boss, and it definitely takes a lot of runs until you have him memorized. But on NG+ I first-, or second-tried him. I think all Sekiro bosses are pretty chill once you know them.

Consort Radahn however… I don’t know if I have the will to ever struggle through this fight again

I think you mean the hardest Fromsoft game you liked. Go Beat the original armored core and get back to me. you could also give last raven a shot.

I beat both back in the day. I definitely feel like battletoads was the more difficult of the two.

Tbf, tons of nes and snes/Sega games were crazy hard. It hid how short they were. Like, Altered Beast is a game that no one ever beat on the Sega without using like a game genie. The entire game is only like 15 or 20 minutes long, though. Tmnt and battle battletoads were just super popular games you couldn’t beat.

Battletoads has nothing on Ghosts 'n Goblins! I can at least play Battletoads until the stupid vehicle jumping section. I don’t think I’ve ever even made it more than like 3 checkpoints into Ghosts 'n Goblins
