That's it? A planet wipe? That's nothing lol, real darkness is living in the society that lived

God knows how many stupid shit like this I saw on twitter.

Kill yourselves

What did you expect? Normal people don't actually think about it until you tell them.

I still remember when Madworld got a lot of attention just because it was a violent game on the Wii.

The thing is, when you have a game like Elden Ring where from begining to end the tone is somber and hopeless, the dark implications of the plot are expected. So, for instance, when you meed Rogier and he ends up dying as he suggest you start working with Ranni, or when Alexander ends up dying realizing the impossibility of his dream of becoming a warrior despite being dark it's just the overall tone of the game.
Ironnically, that's why people like a lot the more positive sides of the story, one of them being Ranni herself having lighthearted banter with you during the end of her questline, or Tanith and her Snek daughter having a genuine relationship (that you also destroy). When the whole game is dark the light stands out more.

In Nintendo games, the opposite is true. The games are usually lighthearted with positive tones all around. So when you go through a whole game of cutsey and colorful kirby where everything is joyful and happy-go-lucky, facing a final boss that's an apocalyptic angel with bleeding eyes, it certainly becomes more memorable.

WHEW Nintenniggas getting touchy.

a lot of people can't accept the fact that a toy made for children is able to make them feel things like sadness or dread.

>real darkness is living in the society that lived
Not really, the post Apoc trope is so done.

Go back

By that logic BOTW is the darkest game Nintendo has ever made.

They wouldn't know life before the moon, if life could even survive.
Real terror is having the world on your shoulders and nowhere to run.

In-game it's hardly as scary as the art makes it look. No Kirby boss is scary or dark.

Nintendo has sanitized the fuck out of their shit since the 90s. Even their non bing bing wahoo franchises. Everything they make now is 100x more sterile and family-friendly more than they already were. We will never have things like literal torture dungeons in Ocarina of Time and the whole of Majora's Mask from them again.

I think it's the Wii's fault they've gotten so sterile.

it doesn't have to be too scary and it doesn't have to be super dark. It has to be memorable, it's what I'm trying to say.

We have this same exact thread several times a day.

this, people still not getting this are retarded
i don't feel shit whenever playing a game with a darker setting because everything is expected
it's not "scary", it's just unexpected and contrasts hard with the game which makes it creepier than an actual gore monster from an apocalypse game for example.

This is making fun of YouTube Lore/Theory videos for Nintendo games, and particularly Kirby games. Shit like Hal using a texture for Earth to represent Shiver Star, and that being blown out of proportions.
This is 95% just “WOAH CUTE THING IS ACTUALLY FUCKING EDGY” mindbroking from years of those shitty jokes seeping out of people’s mouths to spout out how dark Kirby “really is”.

Being emo isn't being dark fellas, darkness is knowing there's people who would do it again it try, but there's a point where that also fails because they make those who could do something laughably stupid

I'm a Nintendo fan, but I imagine it's referring to when people who look at slightly dark subtext and try to paint it as making the game or series DARK and NOT FOR KIDS, like Kirby fans do, as a major example.

majora's mask, earthbound, metroid fusion, wtf are they on about? sounds like a salty indie dev desu masioso.
