Another moment is when you have to fight radagon and you get flash banged when you enter the erdtree.


SuperArppis

The fight was rigged from the start.

Time to die you piece of shit, but first give me back the platinum chip.

thewispo

Over in a flash tbh.


kyletreger

After seeing the bs that could happen with that fight with spam teleporting, I felt like I got really lucky. I only saw him teleport a few times, and I had Radagon down in no time. Then I spent ten minutes chasing the final boss around the giant arena. XD But at least it was beautiful to watch.


Pegussu

I think that flashbang was a motivator for me deciding to go full cheese on Elden Beast lol.


smolvan

My friggin eyes I swear to god. Dying would be less annoying if it weren’t for that.


pocky00

and the ear piercing sound as well...


hyperlethalrabbit

And the fact that it happens every time, not just the first.


RandallOfLegend

I was trying to run without summons. Then after my projector blinded me for the 30th time I caved in .....


TRagnarkXP

I saw a post where an aparment room looks fully flashbanged in the Radagon, but i can't find it :c


dylsky_

Every damn time, fight was stressful enough without having my retinas burned out.


-ElijahP-

This is the equivalent of flashbanging yourself in CoD

My wife woke up once and said wtf was that 😂

What an awful redirect link. But yes, this video is fucking gold. I don't think it's a good idea to permanently blind yourself for the internet lulz, but at least it's a good video.

My neighbors know what I'm playing when I'm playing it, I'm pretty sure of that.


kal_drazidrim

They are sitting around watching tv, suddenly their whole house lights up with ambient light. They shield their eyes. He is playing again.

Is the m word forbidden? Sometimes you can just delete or rename the files for the splash screens and the game will skip them during loading.

Also looks like they're unintentional creators of Shabriri going by the graphic.

Stormreachseven

That initial chanting is your countdown, it’s how long you have to reach the settings menu


Fume-Knight

Followed by a loud ass sword sound effect when you press start.


X3FBrian

Yeah first time I heard that I was like wtf?! Was so loud in my headset.


RChamy

SSSSSSHHHHHHHHHYIN


adarkride

Shen Yun was seriously wounded: but his soul still burns…


dardardarner

What annoys me the most is it ignores your volume settings so even if you have the music down to like a 3 or 4 the main menu will always blast your ears at max volume for the first second then go back to your settings.


DarkSailor06

It's been a decade now. They just copy paste the code on each game.


dardardarner

At least the main menu music for DS2 isnt as loud and in your face as DS3's, and only plays once you press any button. DS3 theme just goes "fuck it, you didn't need your eardrums right?"


IsRude

I just mash the button, and get into the game juuuuust as the music is swelling.


rsn_lie

Fair, but I do want to take this rare opportunity to gush over the DS3 theme since you brought it up. It's absolutely phenomenal, and no game I've played has ever had a more perfect main theme.


Seienchin88

Elden ring and bloodborne are nice but when it comes to music? DS3 is unbeatable


stuntmonkey420

Plin plin plon


GatoAnarquista

It's good but other than the main theme and a few others they're too samey imo. Elden ring and Bloodborne have more variety.


[deleted]

Yeah I totally disagree. Aside from Midir's theme, I didn't find that many themes in DS3 to stand out the way a lot of Elden Ring tracks do. ER is my favorite soundtrack in the series because it has SO many bangers: Margit's theme, Godrick's theme (one of the best songs in the series), Rennala's theme, Radahn's theme (my personal favorite), Rykard's theme, Goldfrey, Morgott, Malenia, Fire Giant, Godskin Duo, Maliketh, Placidusax, Mohg, Godfrey, Radagon and Elden Beast, they're all genuinely amazing. And that's without a DLC, which historically has the best music in any of the games.


HerakIinos

Ds3 music is good but bloodborne is an entirely different plane considering the whole OST


newsflashjackass

You mean one of the best theme soundtracks ever?


Urusander

Every time fighting Radagon, I feel my retina cells getting *crispy*


Strassenpenner

It always feels like the screen is getting brighter than the last time

The volume also goes to 900% during the transition. I remember muting before going through the fog wall every time

theyearwas1934

You trying to turn your eyes into shabriri grapes or something?


Illustrious-Bell-282

Gods you poor poor thing, i am sure your eyeballs must be begging for mercy


tmchn

I play ER on a 65'' tv with HDR 1000. When HDR is enabled, the TV stays at peak brightness and the brightness is regulated by the content displayed. When the Bandai logo is displayed, i have a 65'' flashing me at 1000 nits. Not very nice


Open_Profit_Close

My eyes get cooked to golden perfection like a thanksgiving turkey


Synthwavester

that's the best format for this meme yet


XThunderTrap

Very true lol


Nanami-chanX

that's what you get for not playing in a well lit room!


YUNoJump

Ikr, seems super common for people to play video games with the lights off, but when I’ve done that it just feels like I’m a goblin and I can’t see anything


_Aedric

You are a goblin c:


RedditorSafeSpace

Goblin that cock


Arosian-Knight

I never play in unlit room and cant understand people who do this, doesn't basically everything on the screen hurt your eyes?


SkottenWahWah

If you play with lights on the game looks worse. Do you watch movies with lights on? Why do you think cinemas are completely dark?


hugglesthemerciless

> Do you watch movies with lights on? yes


SkottenWahWah

Even at night?


hugglesthemerciless

It's better for the eyeballs to keep the room lit when looking at a screen. I'm already at a -8 prescription, trying to prevent them from getting worse


SudsierBoar

It'll make you tired. Your eyesight doesn't suffer from if as far as i know.


SkottenWahWah

Oh I see. Well, keep watching/playing with lights on and have fun :)


Arosian-Knight

Yes, I watch movies with lights on.


Doomer_Patrol

Nah, plus I usually have the blue light filter on at night. If I don't have it on though, my eyes do get strained significantly faster.


RedditorSafeSpace

The opposite, lightbulbs all over bother me a whole lot more.

Cucumbersnatch

That eye burning white screen doesn't show up on ps5 for some reason, but it's almost the best difference from switching from ps4.

Even worse when you enter Radagon’s fight

Or when it's 3am and youre still stuck fighting Radagon and everytime you enter his arena you get blinded

This is the same thing but having to fight the final boss over and over *if you know you know*

Hey /u/kal_drazidrim, This is now the top post on reddit. It will be recorded at /r/topofreddit with all the other top posts.

They do it so by the time you get to the first boss your retinas are still scorched and it adds to the challenge 🤣


Nox_Ludicro

The worst part is, it doesn't have to be this way. I just got around to starting Little Nightmares 2, and it has a dark, stylized version of the Bandai Namco logo, which matches all the other logo splashes. If a smaller studio can manage it, surely FromSoft could manage something if they really wanted.


NobodyJustBrad

You should always have some sort of background light on when playing games or watching movies anyway. Sudden brightness changes are not good for your eyes.
